  • Lollapalooza The Uncensored Story From Music Journalists Richard Bienstock And Tom Beaujour

    Lollapalooza The Uncensored Story From Music Journalists Richard Bienstock And Tom Beaujour
    Apr 5 2025
    In LOLLAPALOOZA: The Uncensored Story of Alternative Rock's Wildest Festival (St. Martin's Press; March 25, 2025; $32.00 Hardcover) New York Times bestselling authors Richard Bienstock and Tom Beaujour tell the no-holds-barred history of the iconic music festival. Through hundreds of new interviews with artists, tour founders, festival organizers, promoters, publicists, sideshow freaks, stage crews, record label execs, reporters, roadies and more, LOLLAPALOOZA chronicles the tour's pioneering 1991-1997 run, and, in the process, alternative rock's rise - as well as the reverberations that led to a massive shift in the music industry and the culture at large. LOLLAPALOOZA features original interviews with some of the biggest names in music, including Perry Farrell and Jane's Addiction, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Nine Inch Nails, Sonic Youth, Tool, Smashing Pumpkins, Ice-T, Rage Against the Machine, Green Day, Patti Smith, Alice in Chains, Metallica and many more. Conceived by Farrell as a farewell tour for Jane's Addiction, Lollapalooza's inaugural outing across the U.S. in the summer of 1991 helped to coalesce an ideology and aesthetic that not only washed over popular music but seeped into fashion, film, television, literature, food, politics and more. Throughout the decade, Lollapalooza offered a vast and diverse ensemble of bands, breaking barriers of genre and uniting alternative rock, heavy metal, punk, hip-hop, industrial, goth, avant-garde, spoken word, electronic dance music and other styles under one big tent, and setting the template for the modern American music festival and the scores of other contemporary destination fests that are now an integral part of how audiences experience live music. Unorthodox not just in music, Lollapalooza also spotlighted visual arts, nonprofit organizations, political outfits and even the occasional freak show, offering a tantalizing cocktail of culture, art, and activism that, taken together, defined the alternative mindset that dominated the 1990s. Echoes of its impact reverberate strongly today - cemented by annual sell-outs at destination events all over the world, an estimation of 400,000 attendees at the flagship Chicago fest each summer, and a spot among the world's largest and longest-running music festivals.

    My Day Of Play 3 Crazy Unedited Talks With Gary E Parker Gianna Prudente Jame Jackson Gadsden and Jesse Nelson
    Apr 5 2025
    Welcome back to the studio. This is My Day of Play, where you’re taken into the real events and actions of how it happens long before the process of editing or cleaning up. The original purpose of these episodes was to give my broadcasting students something to edit, to practice with and to call their own. Then I realized that you are just as important. Share the reality of how it really went. We begin things with the very inspiring novelist Gary E Parker whose new book is very Friday Night Lights Erin Brockovich. It’s titled The Playbook. Then it’s a short conversation with Gianna Prudente and Jame Jackson Gadsden from the podcast Lets Talk Off Line. And we’ll wrap things up Jesse Nelson cofounder of Exhumed Films. We’re talking DialbolikDVD. This is My Day of Play. Completely unedited in the way of meeting the wizard behind the curtain.

    The Daily Mess Why Are We Buying Junk Food Plus How Can We Prep For A Recession
    Apr 5 2025
    I’m always asking questions. The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as… Why are people buying so much junk food? Plus…One look at the nation and you can’t help but ask if we’re gonna get hit with a recession? I’m Arroe… I am a daily writer. A silent wolf. I stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen study then activate. I call it The Daily Mess. A chronological walk through an everyday world. Yes, it’s my morning writing. As a receiver of thoughts and ideas, we as people tend to throw it to the side and deal with it later. When a subject arrives, I dig in. It’s still keeping a journal! By doing the research the picture becomes clearer. This is the Daily Mess…
