Will you be attending The Witches Ball this weekend? I’m unable to attend this time unfortunately but I’m hoping the will be videos and lots of reports from those who are going.
Funny you should mention it. We did manage to escape to the McKittrick on Friday and Saturday and in typical fashion, Waffle took a bunch of Witches' Ball Halloween party videos including all three ballroom performances and is uploading them to our YouTube channel right now. More will appear over the coming days, but there's plenty to get you started already on our YouTube Channel! It was a damn good time!
After clearing the vaccine and mandatory test requirement, guests could enter through the maze. (On Friday, guests could also enter directly to the hotel lobby from the stairs, but that was closed off to try to improve flow for the weekend parties.) On Friday night, all the party floors were open at the top of the party--ballroom plus mezzanine, lobby, Manderley, and 4th floor. On Sat and Sun, the typical Manderley and lobby were open at entry time and the rest opened later. In the Manderley, there was live music as always, MK Groove with various singers including Julia Haltigan, Lisa McQuade; Karen Marie and her band; and the Villians. The hotel lobby had a DJ (DJ A-Ball on Fri, don't know other nights) and live burlesque dancers all night (Lily Ockwell, Kelly Todd, Kelsey Connolly, Ernesto Breton, Doug Burkhardt, Elias Rosa) dancing on the hotel lobby desk. There were three ballrooms starring Mallory Gracenin, Ashley Robicheaux, Joy-Marie Thompson, Ruth Howard, Zack McNally, Jacob Guzman (and one unknown special guest). There were also tireless, gorgeous go-go dancers between numbers: Evan Fisk, Jamal Abrams, Kayla Farrish, and Marissa Maislen. The fourth floor had durational performances by Camara McLaughlin, Stephanie Jean Lane, Morgan Doelp, Marc Cardarelli, Andy Talen, and Mitchell Winter and more go-go/burlesque/um....just really good dancing in the rep bar (if you happened to catch the light at the right time) by Nate Carter, Marija Obradovic, Aliza Russell, Emily Oldak.
Of course, none of this would be possible without Austin Goodwin, who gave us the gift of this nostalgic, beautiful, debaucherous gathering of old and new friends.
Check out the videos we have up now. We know it's not the same as going in the flesh, but hope it helps tide you over until you can safely get back to the grand hotel. We'll keep uploading more in the near future! (There are a LOT.) The link is in the notes to keep this post visible on the tag. :)

Good morning and happy Monday, everyone! I hope you’re all having a great morning. :) Well, I’m not sure how “good” it is for those who are being affected by the fires, but I really hope this week can bring some improvements. Air quality is still bad, and so many people are being displaced by the fires. :/ I don’t know as much about Oregon weather, but I know it’s supposed to be a tiny bit cooler this week, so hopefully that helps. 
There are some great books on sale at least to help keep our anxiety down? Be sure to have a look if you need some new reading material. I’ve heard so many great things about Dear Martin! The first two books of the Waking Gods trilogy are also on sale, so if you’ve been wanting to get into those it seems like a good chance maybe! Anyway, hope you all have a wonderful day and happy reading!

Arbouretum — Let It All In (Thrill Jockey)
Tumblr media
Photo by Patrick McQuade
Let It All In by Arbouretum
Dave Heumann’s Arbouretum hasn’t changed all that much since they first wafted out of the speakers in the early aughts. Strongly grounded in Neil Young-ish country rock though haunted by psych and blues, his music sounds like it’s always been there, like it’s been in a mountain cave somewhere, waiting for Heumann to twist his limber guitar lines around it, waiting for his earnest, searching voice to mouth its mysticisms. This 12th full-length (my count from discogs.com includes a few CDR self-releases and a split with Hush Arbors) will not be surprising to long- or short-time listeners. It may, even so, be illuminating, tapping into some deep ur-stream-of-consciousness folk rock form that seems familiar even when you hear it first.
Heumann works here, as he has for some time, with bassist Corey Allender, drummer Brian Carey and Matthew Pierce on keyboards. For Let It All In, he’s added to the crew David Bergander, so that every track has two drummers, though you won’t hear them as especially percussive. These cuts are nearly all laid back and ruminative, focused on slow, cascading bursts of strummed guitar and Heumann’s spectral, hollowed-out voice.
As in previous albums, Heumann practices a sort of musical transcendentalism, where simple instrumental forms and plain spoken natural images evoke hidden spiritual resonances. He channels the celestial hum and glow that flickers just beneath the surface of ordinary life. “How Deep It Goes,” for instance, starts the album in a serene patter of strummed guitar, as steady and soothing as the sound of rain on the roof. The song, too, is about an undramatic series of experiences, a person staying out all night and watching the sun rise. And yet, it also isn’t. It’s also about the scrim of reality and how we sometimes pierce it. “What here rings true/Will wait for you/And if it’s lies/Distrust your eyes,” Heumann sings, acknowledging that not even the sea and sky and the world can be fully taken as what it is.
The main issue with this Arbouretum album is that it sticks stubbornly in a mid-tempo calm. There are no big, ripping guitar solos and few instrumental crescendos. The one big exception comes late in the album with “Let It All In” an extended zooming, driving, electrified vamp that undergirds Heumann’s serpentine guitar figures with a buzz of urgency. The cut goes on for nearly 12 minutes, but it’s the quickest 12 minutes on the album. Placid contemplation is a fine thing in moderation, of course, but the one you’ll return to is track seven, because it rocks.

'Singin' in the Rain' (featuring Ryan McQuade)
Even though we just covered Hamilton in our first-ever Crooked Roundtable, we're not quite ready to move on from musicals just yet. So this episode, we're discussing one of the most beloved big-screen musicals of all time: 1952's Singin' in the Rain starring Gene Kelly, Donald O'Connor, and Debbie Reynolds.
Ryan McQuade returns to the show to help us break down why Singin' in the Rain is such a joyous and unforgettable experience. We'll discuss the behind-the-scenes drama, how the film comments on real-life cinema history, and -- of course -- the indelible music, many of which debuted in earlier films.
So put your dancing shoes on, grab an umbrella, and get ready to tap your way through that shower with Singin' in the Rain.
SYNOPSIS
When silent films begin to transition to "talkies," everyone has trouble adapting. Don (Gene Kelly) and Lina (Jean Hagen) have been cast repeatedly as a romantic couple. But when their latest film is remade into a musical, only Don has the voice for the new singing part. After a lot of practice with a diction coach, Lina still sounds terrible. Kathy (Debbie Reynolds) -- a bright young aspiring actress -- is hired to record over her voice.

 Nancy Joyce
Tumblr media
Nancy Fulmer Joyce departed this world on August 1st following a courageous three-year battle with plasma cell leukemia. During that fight, she maintained her famous sense of humor, laughing loud and often, never whining about her fate.
           Nancy grew up in the Syracuse, NY area. She was a lifelong learner furthering her education and receiving various degrees from Elmira College, Syracuse University, UNC-Chapel Hill, Appalachian State University and UNC-Greensboro where she earned her Doctorate Degree. She worked in the Wilkes County Schools for more than 30 years as a teacher (receiving a "Teacher of the Year" award), psychologist, administrator, and school principal (receiving a "Principal of the Year" award). After a short hiatus, she hung out her shingle and practiced psychology. Her focus throughout her career was on "the child", whose cause she always championed.
           She was active in the community, served on various boards, volunteered at Hospice, and was a member and past president of the North Wilkesboro Rotary Club. She was a faithful member of St. John's Catholic Church and taught Sunday School and served as a lector for many years. During her illness, in the comfort of her sunroom, she was grateful to share religious thoughts, while drinking Irish tea, with Sister Janis McQuade, SSJ. She played bridge, drank wine and giggled with her buds to the end.
           Mostly, she loved her family- husband Dennis, sons Pat and Sean, her sisters, brothers and all other kith and kin. But she was wildly, deliriously happy to spend time with her beloved grandchildren, Connor, Ansley, and Emmett- Pat and Nikki's brood. It is beyond a shadow of any reasonable doubt, Pat can attest, that she treated her grandkids far better, nicer, kinder and gentler than she did her own sons ("poor babies") and her wonderful husband.
           A Mass of Christian Burial was August 6th with Father John Hanic presiding. In lieu of flowers, please consider making a gift to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society in honor of Nancy F. Joyce, P.O. Box 98018, Washington, DC 20090-8018. Their website is: www.lls.org
