Killing June, Sprouting July - Events at the Yod Mill Outlet

from the Byronator:

"TUESDAY JUNE 30 doors/food at 7, music at 8. JAKOB OLAUSSON and SUS&JAKOB. two units of psychedelic sweden's wiliest pluckers. folks who witnessed the flywheel gig back in whenever-it-was are still rolling the pearls of karma around in the deepest recesses of their brain-mouths. from the wreck of the joshua jug band comes a rainbow of huzz. we are hoping for the absolute best. on the menu -- sesame noodles, salad, cheap beer. if you want anything else, bring it yr damn self. the cost of supporting the arts? a mere $5.

SATURDAY JULY 4 doors at 7/music at 8. drop a line to websales@yod.com if you are interested in details related to a bbq earlier in the day. ZAIMPH, TOM CARTER & (perhaps) THE AARON ROSENBLUM. Two (or three) superb instrumentalists, whose reeking fingers are always set to probe the depths of the o-mind. we may lay in some cheap beer, and suggest you contribute $5 to the support of culture.

MONDAY JULY 6 at 8 will be the debut of Monday Movies with Matt, a (more or less) weekly series of hosted by Mr. Krefting. months will be arranged by theme, popcorn will be popped, a living room atmosphere will be encouraged, and a discussion will follow the films. the cost to you? nothing.

221 pine street #441 florence ma, directions on yod.com. reservations are very much encouraged via websales@yod.com or 413-586-0706."

Id M Theft Able, Cave Bears, Bromp Treb

FRIDAY JUNE NINETEENTH @ MYSTERY TRAIN
This is to be the release of a beauteous 180 gram slab of grooved vinyl from Easthampton's Feeding Tube Records. The object is comprised of two parts music, one part art: *one part Maine's yeti of the responsive & electrified table-top: Id M Theft Able *one part Turners Falls/Brattleboro hollerers Cave Bears *one part impeccable screen printed art by Brooklyn's own Matthew Thurber (big whup?). Actually he did one side for each 'band' so that's two parts too. These acts are going to totally play their sides EXACTLY the way they are, so you should really come and listen and then buy the record and then find out which parts were, you know the same and which parts were, like, totally different. There will also be another *part which will be a set by BROMP TREB at the show where you can get this record...Did I mention this was a show at Mystery Train Records. THIS SHOW HAS FIVE PARTS PEOPLE!

Sir Richard Bishop

Tuesday June 16th
9:00 Rendezvous 78 Third St. Turners Falls $6

Sir Richard Bishop & His Freak of Araby Ensemble
Oaxacan



As the guitarist for the Sun City Girls throughout their 25 year career, Richard Bishop has traversed musical landscapes from skronk to Indo/Middle Eastern/Asian influenced improv and composition. Sir Richard has just completed a new LP on Drag City, which sees him revisit his Lebanese roots (his grandfather is from Lebanon). The performance will celebrate the musical voices of the Middle East and North Africa, especially from the late 1960s and early 1970s. Electric guitar with percussion is the main focus and will include interpretations of songs by some of the Middle East's most vibrant composers (Mohammed Abdel Wahab, the Rahbani Brothers, Farid Al-Atrache and others). Many of these songs are inspired by the late Omar Khorshid- "King of Arabic Guitar", who played in Abdel Wahab's orchestra and also accompanied the great Oum Khoulthoum on many occasions. The music will be melodic, vibrant and dynamic, and also may be challenging to listeners who may not be familiar with the electric sound that permeated the countries of Egypt, Lebanon, Palestine and Syria 40 years ago. The collection of songs will nicely represent the changing moods and energies that always permeate this region of the world. Expect a very rhythmic evening with endless spurts of melodic and psychedelic transcendental guitar.
