In a packed hall, Senator Paula Hawkins (R-Fla.) takes the podium with a magenta blazer and a stern edge to her voice: There's a piece of evidence she wants her fellow legislators to see.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t watch much television,” she begins. “I’m not sure how many of my colleagues get much opportunity to watch any of the music video shows now available on cable and free TV. But I have brought along two videos from which to choose, which I believe are representative of the kind of presentation which have caused the furor.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We will show them,” she concludes awkwardly, glancing down at her notes. “The first is by the group, uh...Van Halen.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And then a woodgrain television is wheeled out toward the front of the room, and the Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee sits and politely watches the music video for “Hot for Teacher.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6M4_Ommfvv0\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The circus-like nature of the current primaries might seem unprecedented, but by all accounts, the situation in Washington 30 years ago this week was much, much weirder. Ronald Reagan had been sworn in for a second presidential term nine months earlier, having won one of the biggest landslides in electoral history. The religious right wielded incredible power, while the left grasped for some way to reinvent itself -- and, by all accounts, they decided on a culture war. Never mind that the cards of the Iran-Contra affair were being dealt behind closed doors: In the halls of congress, Tipper Gore, wife of then-Senator Al Gore, was on a mission to protect American children from Cyndi Lauper singing about the joys of masturbation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yes, sex-, drug- and occult-laced rock ‘n’ roll music was corrupting American youth faster than you could say \u003cem>Purple Rain\u003c/em>, argued Gore, and it was the government’s job to stop it. Her newly formed Parents Music Resource Center pushed for the Recording Industry Association of America to establish a rating system similar to the one in place for movies, by which to warn parents when records were not suitable for young ears, and why: V for Violent, X for sexually explicit, and so forth. They also argued for lyric sheets printed on every scandalous record that made it to shelves, and incentives for record stores to simply decide not to carry records deemed explicit at all. (Wal-Mart eventually took this bait.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_18112\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 428px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/5560437719_eb164cc08d.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\" wp-image-18112\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/5560437719_eb164cc08d-400x404.jpg\" alt=\"Distributed by the PMRC.\" width=\"428\" height=\"432\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/5560437719_eb164cc08d-400x404.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/5560437719_eb164cc08d-32x32.jpg 32w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/5560437719_eb164cc08d-64x64.jpg 64w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/5560437719_eb164cc08d-96x96.jpg 96w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/5560437719_eb164cc08d-128x128.jpg 128w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/5560437719_eb164cc08d-75x75.jpg 75w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/5560437719_eb164cc08d.jpg 495w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 428px) 100vw, 428px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">This list was distributed by the PMRC to note the most scandalous songs of the era. Yes, really.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\"We're not censors,\" Tipper Gore told \u003cem>Rolling Stone\u003c/em> at the time. \"We want a tool from the industry that is peddling this stuff to children, a consumer tool with which parents can make an informed decision on what to buy. What we're talking about is a sick new strain of rock music glorifying everything from forced sex to bondage and rape.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Music industry veteran Danny Goldberg, then the head of Gold Castle Records, didn’t disagree that there were some unpleasant lyrics out there in the world of ‘80s rock music. But he did, like many others, recognize the huge potential for such a “consumer tool” to infringe on artists’ First Amendment rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The primary trigger for movies [ratings] had to do with nudity, and four-letter words, these very tangible criteria. And a lot of the songs they were targeting -- obviously there’s no nudity in a lyric, it’s an audio experience. And even then the songs they were targeting didn’t necessarily have four-letter words,” says Goldberg from New York, where he now heads Gold Village Entertainment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prince’s “Darling Nikki,” for instance, was the subject of very heated discussion thanks to the word “masturbate.” (He left the subtlety to Lauper, as it were.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Any time you have subjective criteria like that, you’re creating a climate of inhibition,\" says Goldberg. \"And that would just completely contradict the spirit of what popular music is about, which is the voice of teenagers, in a way. It would have caused an impediment to selling to people under 18, which was a large part of the audience for some of these artists. The way they demonized pop music was just not intellectually honest.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Noting that the RIAA wasn't designed to deal with such controversies -- up until then, it had mostly dealt with copyright law -- Goldberg called every label owner and band manager he could think of, and forged a partnership with the ACLU. A few press releases later, the controversy’s place in the media spotlight was sealed -- even before the strangest of pop music’s bedfellows came together to testify on behalf of free speech. (The anti-labeling faction called itself the Musical Majority, in a nod to Jerry Falwell’s Moral Majority, a reference of which, Goldberg notes, he was rather proud.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the weeks that followed, during what newspapers gleefully referred to as \"porn-rock\" hearings, Congress saw the testimonies of a \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgAF8Vu8G0w\" target=\"_blank\">typically meandering yet cogent Frank Zappa\u003c/a>, a surprisingly eloquent (and Christian-identifying) Dee Snider, and -- perhaps most shockingly -- a staunchly anti-censorship and yet still squeaky-clean John Denver.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VgSjjD6rRu4\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over a period of two months (during which a pastor read \u003ca href=\"http://www.c-span.org/video/?c4525867/us-senate-hears-mentors-lyrics\" target=\"_blank\">lyrics about golden showers aloud in Congress\u003c/a>, among other memorable testimonies), they and other free speech advocates argued the PMRC down to the program that’s been in place ever since: the little old sticker in the bottom right-hand corner of a cassette tape or CD denoting “explicit content” -- which really just means profanity, which really just means five or six words. Individual labels and artists could choose which records got the stickers; retailers could choose whether or not they wanted to sell the explicit versions or the “clean” ones or both.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And henceforth, protected from pop music, no teenager ever wanted to have sex or smoke weed ever again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Juuust kidding. So what kind of impact did the PAL actually have?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I would say the program was mainly a failure based on what they were trying to achieve,” says Marc Weinstein, co-founder of Amoeba Music, whose first store opened in Berkeley in 1990. “More often than not, from what I saw, it actually became a sales tool -- it made it easier for teenagers to identify the cool stuff.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If we ever wound up with the censored version it was by mistake, and we would sell them for a dollar or so just out of disrespect for the program,” he adds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In practice, the whole concept reminded Weinstein of a different failed program: The “Home Taping Is Killing Music” slogan adopted by the British Phonographic Industry in the early ‘80s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Obviously the [PAL] is a freedom of speech issue, but...they go hand-in-hand for me,” says Weinstein. “Just these silly ways the industry tried to deal with behavior that you can’t really regulate, which in the end is natural behavior. No one was getting hurt, and they’re spending time and money creating this program...I don’t know what they thought they were going to accomplish. It was just clueless.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The RIAA, which updated its guidelines for the PAL program in 2006, disputes the notion that teenagers are actually drawn to the labels. “It’s not a PAL Notice that kids look for, it’s the music,” insists \u003ca href=\"http://www.riaa.com/toolsforparents.php?content_selector=parental_advisory\" target=\"_blank\">the organization’s website\u003c/a>. Reached by email this month, representatives from the RIAA said they had no access to data that would point to the label’s actual impact on sales nor its success rate at actually keeping objectionable material out of the hands of youths. But the program is still very much in effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The kicker, of course, is the Internet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Each individual track that has potentially objectionable content is labeled 'explicit,' which stays with the track even after point of purchase [online],\" former RIAA president \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/therecord/2010/10/29/130905176/you-ask-we-answer-parental-advisory---why-when-how\" target=\"_blank\">Cary Sherman told NPR in 2010\u003c/a>, explaining the program's digital adaptation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But ask any teenager how easy that is to ignore and, well, they'll probably tell you they've never noticed it. In retrospect, the PMRC hearings represented the last time it even seemed \u003cem>plausible\u003c/em> that adults or those in a position of power could control what young people consumed, for better or for or worse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When \u003cem>Rolling Stone\u003c/em> checked in with Tipper Gore last week to see how her thoughts had evovled, \u003ca href=\"http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/tipper-gore-reflects-on-pmrc-30-years-later-20150914\" target=\"_blank\">she had the following to say\u003c/a>:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In this era of social media and online access, it seems quaint to think that parents can have control over what their children see and hear. But I think this conversation between parents and kids is as relevant today as it was back in the '80s. Music is a universal language that crosses generations, race, religion, sex and more. Never has there been more need for communication and understanding on these issues as there is today...All of the artists and record companies who still use the advisory label should be applauded for helping parents and kids have these conversations about lyrics around their own values.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_18122\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 400px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/ef20578ec11e627ebfd9b4e192ab3809.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-18122\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/ef20578ec11e627ebfd9b4e192ab3809-400x258.jpg\" alt=\"Rage Against the Machine at Lollapalooza in 1993.\" width=\"400\" height=\"258\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/ef20578ec11e627ebfd9b4e192ab3809-400x258.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/ef20578ec11e627ebfd9b4e192ab3809.jpg 425w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Rage Against the Machine at Lollapalooza in 1993.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>She did not, unfortunately, comment on the \u003ca href=\"http://www.feelnumb.com/2012/07/03/metallica-master-of-puppets-vulgar-warning-sticker/\" target=\"_blank\">slew\u003c/a> of \u003ca href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_P.M.R.C._Can_Suck_on_This\" target=\"_blank\">imaginative\u003c/a> art and performance inspired by the PMRC.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Otherwise: Fair 'nuff, Tipper.

It's the very silly-seeming beginning of a very serious and slippery slope.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So happy birthday, PAL. We'd like to think we learned something from you.

Ronald Reagan had been sworn in for a second presidential term nine months earlier, having won one of the biggest landslides in electoral history. The religious right wielded incredible power, while the left grasped for some way to reinvent itself -- and, by all accounts, they decided on a culture war. Never mind that the cards of the Iran-Contra affair were being dealt behind closed doors: In the halls of congress, Tipper Gore, wife of then-Senator Al Gore, was on a mission to protect American children from Cyndi Lauper singing about the joys of masturbation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yes, sex-, drug- and occult-laced rock ‘n’ roll music was corrupting American youth faster than you could say \u003cem>Purple Rain\u003c/em>, argued Gore, and it was the government’s job to stop it. Her newly formed Parents Music Resource Center pushed for the Recording Industry Association of America to establish a rating system similar to the one in place for movies, by which to warn parents when records were not suitable for young ears, and why: V for Violent, X for sexually explicit, and so forth. They also argued for lyric sheets printed on every scandalous record that made it to shelves, and incentives for record stores to simply decide not to carry records deemed explicit at all. (Wal-Mart eventually took this bait.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_18112\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 428px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/5560437719_eb164cc08d.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\" wp-image-18112\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/5560437719_eb164cc08d-400x404.jpg\" alt=\"Distributed by the PMRC.\" width=\"428\" height=\"432\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/5560437719_eb164cc08d-400x404.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/5560437719_eb164cc08d-32x32.jpg 32w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/5560437719_eb164cc08d-64x64.jpg 64w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/5560437719_eb164cc08d-96x96.jpg 96w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/5560437719_eb164cc08d-128x128.jpg 128w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/5560437719_eb164cc08d-75x75.jpg 75w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/5560437719_eb164cc08d.jpg 495w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 428px) 100vw, 428px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">This list was distributed by the PMRC to note the most scandalous songs of the era. Yes, really.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\"We're not censors,\" Tipper Gore told \u003cem>Rolling Stone\u003c/em> at the time. \"We want a tool from the industry that is peddling this stuff to children, a consumer tool with which parents can make an informed decision on what to buy. What we're talking about is a sick new strain of rock music glorifying everything from forced sex to bondage and rape.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Music industry veteran Danny Goldberg, then the head of Gold Castle Records, didn’t disagree that there were some unpleasant lyrics out there in the world of ‘80s rock music. But he did, like many others, recognize the huge potential for such a “consumer tool” to infringe on artists’ First Amendment rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The primary trigger for movies [ratings] had to do with nudity, and four-letter words, these very tangible criteria. And a lot of the songs they were targeting -- obviously there’s no nudity in a lyric, it’s an audio experience. And even then the songs they were targeting didn’t necessarily have four-letter words,” says Goldberg from New York, where he now heads Gold Village Entertainment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prince’s “Darling Nikki,” for instance, was the subject of very heated discussion thanks to the word “masturbate.” (He left the subtlety to Lauper, as it were.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Any time you have subjective criteria like that, you’re creating a climate of inhibition,\" says Goldberg. \"And that would just completely contradict the spirit of what popular music is about, which is the voice of teenagers, in a way. It would have caused an impediment to selling to people under 18, which was a large part of the audience for some of these artists. The way they demonized pop music was just not intellectually honest.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Noting that the RIAA wasn't designed to deal with such controversies -- up until then, it had mostly dealt with copyright law -- Goldberg called every label owner and band manager he could think of, and forged a partnership with the ACLU. A few press releases later, the controversy’s place in the media spotlight was sealed -- even before the strangest of pop music’s bedfellows came together to testify on behalf of free speech. (The anti-labeling faction called itself the Musical Majority, in a nod to Jerry Falwell’s Moral Majority, a reference of which, Goldberg notes, he was rather proud.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the weeks that followed, during what newspapers gleefully referred to as \"porn-rock\" hearings, Congress saw the testimonies of a \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgAF8Vu8G0w\" target=\"_blank\">typically meandering yet cogent Frank Zappa\u003c/a>, a surprisingly eloquent (and Christian-identifying) Dee Snider, and -- perhaps most shockingly -- a staunchly anti-censorship and yet still squeaky-clean John Denver.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/VgSjjD6rRu4'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/VgSjjD6rRu4'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>Over a period of two months (during which a pastor read \u003ca href=\"http://www.c-span.org/video/?c4525867/us-senate-hears-mentors-lyrics\" target=\"_blank\">lyrics about golden showers aloud in Congress\u003c/a>, among other memorable testimonies), they and other free speech advocates argued the PMRC down to the program that’s been in place ever since: the little old sticker in the bottom right-hand corner of a cassette tape or CD denoting “explicit content” -- which really just means profanity, which really just means five or six words. Individual labels and artists could choose which records got the stickers; retailers could choose whether or not they wanted to sell the explicit versions or the “clean” ones or both.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And henceforth, protected from pop music, no teenager ever wanted to have sex or smoke weed ever again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Juuust kidding. So what kind of impact did the PAL actually have?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I would say the program was mainly a failure based on what they were trying to achieve,” says Marc Weinstein, co-founder of Amoeba Music, whose first store opened in Berkeley in 1990. “More often than not, from what I saw, it actually became a sales tool -- it made it easier for teenagers to identify the cool stuff.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If we ever wound up with the censored version it was by mistake, and we would sell them for a dollar or so just out of disrespect for the program,” he adds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In practice, the whole concept reminded Weinstein of a different failed program: The “Home Taping Is Killing Music” slogan adopted by the British Phonographic Industry in the early ‘80s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Obviously the [PAL] is a freedom of speech issue, but...they go hand-in-hand for me,” says Weinstein. “Just these silly ways the industry tried to deal with behavior that you can’t really regulate, which in the end is natural behavior. No one was getting hurt, and they’re spending time and money creating this program...I don’t know what they thought they were going to accomplish. It was just clueless.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The RIAA, which updated its guidelines for the PAL program in 2006, disputes the notion that teenagers are actually drawn to the labels. “It’s not a PAL Notice that kids look for, it’s the music,” insists \u003ca href=\"http://www.riaa.com/toolsforparents.php?content_selector=parental_advisory\" target=\"_blank\">the organization’s website\u003c/a>. Reached by email this month, representatives from the RIAA said they had no access to data that would point to the label’s actual impact on sales nor its success rate at actually keeping objectionable material out of the hands of youths. But the program is still very much in effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The kicker, of course, is the Internet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Each individual track that has potentially objectionable content is labeled 'explicit,' which stays with the track even after point of purchase [online],\" former RIAA president \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/therecord/2010/10/29/130905176/you-ask-we-answer-parental-advisory---why-when-how\" target=\"_blank\">Cary Sherman told NPR in 2010\u003c/a>, explaining the program's digital adaptation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But ask any teenager how easy that is to ignore and, well, they'll probably tell you they've never noticed it. In retrospect, the PMRC hearings represented the last time it even seemed \u003cem>plausible\u003c/em> that adults or those in a position of power could control what young people consumed, for better or for or worse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When \u003cem>Rolling Stone\u003c/em> checked in with Tipper Gore last week to see how her thoughts had evovled, \u003ca href=\"http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/tipper-gore-reflects-on-pmrc-30-years-later-20150914\" target=\"_blank\">she had the following to say\u003c/a>:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In this era of social media and online access, it seems quaint to think that parents can have control over what their children see and hear. But I think this conversation between parents and kids is as relevant today as it was back in the '80s. Music is a universal language that crosses generations, race, religion, sex and more. Never has there been more need for communication and understanding on these issues as there is today...All of the artists and record companies who still use the advisory label should be applauded for helping parents and kids have these conversations about lyrics around their own values.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_18122\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 400px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/ef20578ec11e627ebfd9b4e192ab3809.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-18122\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/ef20578ec11e627ebfd9b4e192ab3809-400x258.jpg\" alt=\"Rage Against the Machine at Lollapalooza in 1993.\" width=\"400\" height=\"258\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/ef20578ec11e627ebfd9b4e192ab3809-400x258.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2015/09/ef20578ec11e627ebfd9b4e192ab3809.jpg 425w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Rage Against the Machine at Lollapalooza in 1993.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>She did not, unfortunately, comment on the \u003ca href=\"http://www.feelnumb.com/2012/07/03/metallica-master-of-puppets-vulgar-warning-sticker/\" target=\"_blank\">slew\u003c/a> of \u003ca href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_P.M.R.C._Can_Suck_on_This\" target=\"_blank\">imaginative\u003c/a> art and performance inspired by the PMRC.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Otherwise: Fair 'nuff, Tipper.

It's the very silly-seeming beginning of a very serious and slippery slope.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So happy birthday, PAL. We'd like to think we learned something from you.

Together, at the Russian River Blues Festival, the two make a perfect pair. When Guy played the Johnson’s Beach stage in 2011 (opening for the late B.B. King), his lightning guitar solos and eruptive voice soared over the crowd and the river, where sunbathers floated by on innertubes and kids stomped in the shallow waters. Expect similar alchemy when the 79-year-old legend returns this year with Taj Mahal and Jackie Greene.\n\u003c/p>\u003c/div>\n\u003cdiv class=\"callout noborder\">\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10922862\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 400px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/08/bonnie-prince-billy-400x256.jpg\" alt='Bonnie \"Prince\" Billy' width=\"400\" height=\"256\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-10922862\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/08/bonnie-prince-billy-400x256.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/08/bonnie-prince-billy.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bonnie “Prince” Billy \u003ccite>(Photo: Courtesy of Gundlach-Bundschu Winery)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>Bonnie “Prince” Billy\u003c/h3>\n\u003ch5>Sept. 27\u003cbr>\nGundlach-Bundschu Winery\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://folkyeah.com/#/bpbsonoma2015/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tickets and information\u003c/a>\u003c/h5>\n\u003cp>Whenever Will Oldham (a.k.a. Bonnie “Prince” Billy) comes to town, the cosmic-folk icon doesn’t play standard rock venues — his prior appearances in the North Bay have included a tiny saloon in Pt. Reyes Station, a community hall in Monte Rio, and a former church in Santa Rosa. On his current tour, he’s booked dates in Felton, Big Sur, Nevada City, and Sonoma, where he plays inside a rustic 100-year-old barn at Gundlach-Bundschu winery. Surrounded by farm machinery and old wooden paneling, Oldham should be in his element and thus in top form, playing songs from his days with the Palace Brothers up to his recent solo material.\n\u003c/p>\u003c/div>\n\u003cdiv class=\"callout noborder\">\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10922865\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 400px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/08/Conor-Oberst-400x225.jpg\" alt=\"Conor Oberst\" width=\"400\" height=\"225\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-10922865\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/08/Conor-Oberst-400x225.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/08/Conor-Oberst.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Conor Oberst \u003ccite>(Photo: Courtesy of Phoenix Theater)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>Conor Oberst and M.

By night, the hall hosts a mix of young local bands and national acts like the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Metallica, the Neville Brothers and even Hilary Duff. The theater’s booking has steadily improved in the past ten years, and this night with indie-folk icon Conor Oberst playing songs from both Bright Eyes and his solo career is a definite slam dunk. Pairing the wordy, poetic Oberst with the more plaintive, atmospheric M.

After all, the Sonoma-based artist took a hiatus of nearly three decades to study Buddhism and work as a carpenter. Early works featured in his first Bay Area solo exhibition in over 45 years include the wry photo series \u003cem>8 Natural Handstands\u003c/em> (1969) and the wood-and-sage sculpture \u003cem>Sit on the Floor\u003c/em> (1971). But Kinmont’s sense of humor is especially on display in his later work, made after returning to art in 2005 — a copper stage hosting an argument between a pile of dirt and a pile of feathers; a large piece titled \u003cem>TWO EDUCATED 120-MILLION-YEAR-OLD BOULDERS TRYING TO ENCOURAGE 47 YOUNG WILLOWS TO BE PATIENT\u003c/em>.

Together, at the Russian River Blues Festival, the two make a perfect pair. When Guy played the Johnson’s Beach stage in 2011 (opening for the late B.B. King), his lightning guitar solos and eruptive voice soared over the crowd and the river, where sunbathers floated by on innertubes and kids stomped in the shallow waters. Expect similar alchemy when the 79-year-old legend returns this year with Taj Mahal and Jackie Greene.\n\u003c/p>\u003c/div>\n\u003cdiv class=\"callout noborder\">\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10922862\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 400px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/08/bonnie-prince-billy-400x256.jpg\" alt='Bonnie \"Prince\" Billy' width=\"400\" height=\"256\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-10922862\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/08/bonnie-prince-billy-400x256.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/08/bonnie-prince-billy.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bonnie “Prince” Billy \u003ccite>(Photo: Courtesy of Gundlach-Bundschu Winery)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>Bonnie “Prince” Billy\u003c/h3>\n\u003ch5>Sept. 27\u003cbr>\nGundlach-Bundschu Winery\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://folkyeah.com/#/bpbsonoma2015/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tickets and information\u003c/a>\u003c/h5>\n\u003cp>Whenever Will Oldham (a.k.a.

Reyes Station, a community hall in Monte Rio, and a former church in Santa Rosa. On his current tour, he’s booked dates in Felton, Big Sur, Nevada City, and Sonoma, where he plays inside a rustic 100-year-old barn at Gundlach-Bundschu winery. Surrounded by farm machinery and old wooden paneling, Oldham should be in his element and thus in top form, playing songs from his days with the Palace Brothers up to his recent solo material.\n\u003c/p>\u003c/div>\n\u003cdiv class=\"callout noborder\">\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10922865\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 400px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/08/Conor-Oberst-400x225.jpg\" alt=\"Conor Oberst\" width=\"400\" height=\"225\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-10922865\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/08/Conor-Oberst-400x225.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/08/Conor-Oberst.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Conor Oberst \u003ccite>(Photo: Courtesy of Phoenix Theater)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>Conor Oberst and M.

Now, a new play by Elizabeth Irwin takes the discussion away from social media and into the footlights. \u003cem>My Mañana Comes\u003c/em> follows the tight connection of four busboys working in the back of an upscale New York City restaurant — two of them undocumented, all of them sharing a collegiality of hard work and inside jokes — and the unraveling of that connection when their boss decides to pay them only in tips. A hit in New York, \u003cem>My Mañana Comes\u003c/em> opens at the Marin Theatre Company for its Bay Area premiere.\n\u003c/p>\u003c/div>\n\u003cdiv class=\"callout noborder\">\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10922866\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 400px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/08/Kinmont-400x414.jpg\" alt=\"Robert Kinmont, '8 Natural Handstands' (detail), 1969/2005.\" width=\"400\" height=\"414\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-10922866\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/08/Kinmont-400x414.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/08/Kinmont-580x600.jpg 580w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/08/Kinmont-32x32.jpg 32w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/08/Kinmont.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Robert Kinmont, ‘8 Natural Handstands’ (detail), 1969/2005. \u003ccite>(Photo: Courtesy Alexander and Bonin Gallery, New York)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>Robert Kinmont\u003c/h3>\n\u003ch5>Oct. 31–Jan. 24\u003cbr>\ndiRosa\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://www.dirosaart.org/robert-kinmont/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tickets and information\u003c/a>\u003c/h5>\n\u003cp>The North Bay commendably champions its own artistic legends, but even locals are forgiven if the name Robert Kinmont doesn’t ring a bell. After all, the Sonoma-based artist took a hiatus of nearly three decades to study Buddhism and work as a carpenter. Early works featured in his first Bay Area solo exhibition in over 45 years include the wry photo series \u003cem>8 Natural Handstands\u003c/em> (1969) and the wood-and-sage sculpture \u003cem>Sit on the Floor\u003c/em> (1971). But Kinmont’s sense of humor is especially on display in his later work, made after returning to art in 2005 — a copper stage hosting an argument between a pile of dirt and a pile of feathers; a large piece titled \u003cem>TWO EDUCATED 120-MILLION-YEAR-OLD BOULDERS TRYING TO ENCOURAGE 47 YOUNG WILLOWS TO BE PATIENT\u003c/em>. In diRosa’s rural setting especially, Kinmont’s work may have found its ideal site.\n\u003c/p>\u003c/div>\n\u003cdiv class=\"callout noborder\">\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10922867\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 400px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/08/LaverneCox-400x239.jpg\" alt=\"Laverne Cox\" width=\"400\" height=\"239\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-10922867\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/08/LaverneCox-400x239.jpg 400w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2015/08/LaverneCox.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Laverne Cox \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Sonoma State University)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>Laverne Cox in Conversation\u003c/h3>\n\u003ch5>Nov. 12\u003cbr>\nGreen Music Center\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://gmc.sonoma.edu/event/2784322-women-in-leadership-laverne-cox\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tickets and information\u003c/a>\u003c/h5>\n\u003cp>As Sophia on the television series \u003cem>Orange is the New Black\u003c/em>, Laverne Cox has already played a role in certain social evolutions: the series is distributed through the streaming service Netflix instead of conventional network or cable channels, and the show features a predominantly female cast of inmates in a women’s prison.
