Scary Music That All Those BAD GUYS Like

by unknown cc
You know, I read an article this morning about Bad Guys and music....their music tends to highlight their evil doin's, AND it's almost always some kind of classical-type music that they use. Go HERE to read it all from the state of  Minnesoda, well, CLASSICAL MINNESODA PUBLIC RADIO anyway, where they must know about all this stuff. So, I'll post the video they selected to show what they were talking about. O.K? Check it out and decide for yourself....see if  you agree with Minnesoda about evil, scary classical music that bad guys like to use in their evil movies. Oh yea, there is a WARNING from Classical Minnesoda Public Radio....quote, " WARNING: This montage contains villains using obscene language, committing violent acts, and generally being the sort of people scary movies are made about."
 NOTE: from me, Jan...the language etc. on this video didn't seem too bad to me...kinda like being downtown in any bar in the U.S.A. on any Friday or Saturday night, but, folks if this kinda stuff bothers you ...PLEASE, for goodness sakes be responsible and take care of yourself. The YOUTUBE video is called 'VILLIANS LOVE CLASSICAL MUSIC :THE SUPERCUT' [thanks
Slate .Video]. This is what the video page says: " Published on Aug 22, 2014
Perhaps there’s no accounting for their killer taste, except that screenwriters seem to use classical again and again to signify that these baddies are frightfully intelligent, have a flair for the dramatic, and are too sophisticated to be trusted."...Interesting stuff. Jan

'Thick As a Brick'? NOT EITHER...AND JETHRO TULL/IAN ANDERSON Will Be In Seattle Next Month

from Wikipedia cc,see link
O.K... I love JETHRO TULL, [photo credit] always have...you know, they've been around forever, well, almost anyway... 1967   and guess what?  IAN ANDERSON will be in Seattle next month. August 12th, tickets HERE in McCaw Hall....WOW. Whoops, THAT's September 12th, 2014.
Now, Jethro Tull has had many changes over the years with over 20 official band members...BUT, always IAN ANDERSON with his flaming red hair and unique 'rock and roll' flute  leading it all, an amazing front man for the 'group since '67....AND, he's my personal favorite too [sigh, now how lucky can I get? always cool, even without the red hair SMILE]. Well, hope Steve and I'll get to see him live in Seattle...Wouldn't THAT be a trip? Why don't you go too? It'll be fun.
Anyway, Anderson started playing that flute when he noticed he couldn't play the guitar, and didn't want to play in' a third-rate band'  [it only took him a few weeks of guitar lessons, to make that important decision....Boy, am I glad he did]. That unique and original music was born then and there, that I've really enjoyed so much over the years. AND, not so fast... I'm not either thick as a brick, not even close, SMILE, Jan

Can't Hold It In Much Longer...What's Up Now??

Michael Harrison/drummer, by J.A.Rose-Bartlett cc
I've been offline for over a week...WOW...what's happened anyway?
Well, Steve's been working a cool day job...Dry Wall in North Tacoma. Well, that explains it all, doesn't it? No more 'holding MY breath' and hoping to get online....oh, that reminds me of these cool SEALECT TUNA/CHICKEN OF THE SEA commecials that I saw one o these online [FACEBOOK] last week and I'll post several of them  below, that I found on YOUTUBE today.
And, what's happened musically in the past week, with BARTLETT and in the world? Well, I'm gonna tell ya. In the world...the world is in shock....about the tragic news o ROBIN WILLIAM's death today, go HERE....I will report on this in the next post.
Of course, Steve's played with several cool musicians in this area in the past week....check them all out below. We also met a cool 'Heavy MetaL' band from Spokane, WA. in the past week, called.THIRION X
 Thirion X played at UNCLE SAM's BAR AND GRILL in Spanaway, WA. last Friday, August 8th...WOW. They had a gig on Saturday too, the 9th in Fife, WA....then rest up back in Spokane.
I'd never heard a live 'Heavy Metal' before...the music was intense and powerful...what a show...HEAVY METAL fans will be delighted with this!. Everyone at Uncle Sam's were cheering and loving it all....AND we are ...well, 'er'  mostly from a diFFerent generation than these young wipersnappers....AND we really enjoyed ourselves, So,. I've posted Thirion X's upcoming shows on the link above AND will tell my family in 'Ol Spokalou'....[Spokane]...go out and support, check out and have a good time with these amazing guys. BARTLETT has never played 'Heavy Metal' and thought it would be lotsa fun, thought, maybe he'd been missing out on something good, after watching the band. We'll be sure to keep an eye on this group of musicians...cool.
Well, you might ask...'why were we at Uncle Sam's last Friday?'   Steve BARTLETT ON BASS was honored to play again with JOSEPH PLEMMONS/guitar/vocals, DEB STONE/keys/vocals and DON YOUNG/drums in Plemmon's band called 'STRANGE PLEASURE'.
O.K.,...Let's see, now...What else has been happening?
There was a gig in Olympia, WA, 518 Capital Way S. [check out their location in Yelm too] at 'LA GITANA PIZZA on Saturday, August 9th with THE 'C' NOTES'. That's PAT COLE/guitar/vocals, JOHN CARLETON/lead vocals/guitar , and a wonderul mandolin player named Glen, who sat in. Of course, Steve BARTLETT was ON BASS. tThe place was packed
Our friend and drummer from the band 'Eclipse', MICHAEL HARRISON came down for a bite to eat and hada listen...a cool surprise For us.. Good to see you Michael and his Shelly too
'Shelly'?...How's Shelly?  That reminds me oF our BLUZZZ QUEEN Friend SHELLY ELY, There was no time to jam or anything with Shell in the past week..... Well, soon, miss you SHELL..
There's lotsa music coming up, and rehearsals in the past week that DID happen..
Like, for JAZZ LOVERS; 'THE DON COHEN JAZZ QUARTET' with BARTLETT ON BASS, DON COHEN/vocals, DAVEN TILLENHAST/guitar and MARK STOUT/trombone will be at THE PIG BAR, address 619 Legion Way, S.E., in Olympia thisThursday night, August 14th [starts at 8 o'clock]. Don't miss this.
We'll be seeing 'ESP' or Eclectic Soul Project .... LAMONT ATKINSON/drums/vocals,, RON ROSENBAUM/guitar/vocals and AMY DOWNING/vocals soon too.
Enjoy these funny commercials from SEALECT TUNE/CHICKEN OF THE SEA and I'll post some tune links too. I'm so glad I can be myself and not hold it all in to be accepted by anyone anymore. WHEW, letting it ALL hang out,, Jan
