Opening with a blistering, expansive rendition of "Mr Their show was highlighted by feeling renditions of Some Devil's "Save Me" and "So Damn Lucky," Matthews' fantastically written synthesis of the pathos of life and death Seated mostly behind his keyboard, he smiled slyly, deeply dipping his shoulders in lyrical emphasis amid searing performances of "Highway 61 Revisited" and "Samson and Delilah " Although Dylan's gravelly voice â€â€? more suited these days to a rendition of "Louie, Louie" than his heartfelt closing performance of "Like a Rolling Stone" â€â€? hasn't remained as faithful to him as his sense of feeling, it strangely accentuated the irreverence and tattered wisdom underlying his timeless songs Flashes of lighting on the horizon and torrential sheets of rain drove the throng not into tents, but to chants of "rain or shine!" and perhaps the loudest mass singing of "Come Together" since The Beatles' dissolution Ask Warren Haynes, Steve Winwood, Trey Anastasio â€â€? they'll tell you that such constructions are born of a music industry fixated with categorizations and chain record store divisions " "A good song is unstoppable," Welch told The Associated Press backstage before her performance The Dead took the main stage Saturday night amid atmospheric drama worthy of the festival's most anticipated performance The latter featured special guest Col " Such lyrical preoccupation provided a moving contrast to the fearless instrumental tightrope-walking of bands like Umphrey's McGee, Addison Groove Project and Moe Les Claypool, whose Primus played their own impressive set on Saturday Completely," the set was littered with equally frenzied versions of "The Night Speaks to a Woman," Zeppelin's "Black Dog," band staple "Push on Till the Day" and the completely unexpected Charlie Daniels tune "The Devil Went Down to Georgia " which saw Anastasio joining in on drums and Matthews in a crazed, stage-encompassing dance, a cross between his traditional pseudo-bop and a nod to the drug-induced, hippie writhings that would become so familiar over the weekend Singing with a touching, haunting smoothness, she extracted immense feeling from minimalist musical spaces, particularly during "Miss Ohio" and "Like a Wrecking Ball It had the combination of Umphrey's McGee, Vida Blue (featuring an all-star cast of Phish's brilliant Page McConnell, renowned Allman Brothers bassist Oteil Burbidge and Russell Baptiste of the Funky Meters) and Praxis " And even if there was, they wouldn't consider themselves a part of it " Ultimately, though, beyond any sense of dichotomy, Bonnaroo is a celebratory melting pot of musical ideas Opening with a celebratory "Tennessee Jed," the iconic band delivered a show that exploited the dichotomy of songwriting and abstraction, sensitivity and surrender " Therefore, any jamband discussion, like a conversation about love or morality, is ultimately the discussion of an idea, a beautiful amalgam of vagaries Watching Watson, the 81-year-old epicenter of bluegrass guitar, perform on Saturday was like examining a kind of musical primordial ooze They'll tell you, smiling or frowning, that music doesn't have a "scene Last weekend, this manifested itself in wonderful performance juxtapositions like Friday afternoon's lineup of Bob Dylan, The String Cheese Incident and Gillian Welch Musical nobility like Doc Watson and recent Hall of Fame inductee Steve Winwood are placed against the rapidly emerging brilliance of acts like Yonder Mountain String Band, The Bad Plus and The Black Keys, a murderous, bluesy two-piece (drums and guitar) that produced such a depth and force of sound, at times they made the White Stripes seem like they should be playing proms m Bonnaroo is keenly aware, nurturing even, of its eclectic nature, contrasts and even sense of confusion (thus the locations "Which Stage," "What Stage," "That Tent," "This Tent" and "The Other Tent") But the balance between poetry and jamming was best maintained by the band that built the scaffolding for an event such as Bonnaroo Earlier, though, there was Dylan Thus its final hours encompassed David Byrne (who traveled from Verdi to captivatingly altered renditions of Talking Heads classics like "Psycho Killer") and acidy jazz-rock icons Medeski Martin & Wood setting the stage for a closing performance by Anastasio The Friday night feature set joined two of the so-called scene's most revered figures: Dave Matthews and Anastasio, the festival headliner and frontman of the soon-to-be-disbanded Phish But the most elevated moments appeared in inspired renditions of the Beatles' "Hey Bulldog" and Jimi Hendrix's "Fire," and a particularly joyous closing version of Sly and the Family Stone's "Thank You Bowling over the multigenerational audience with numbers like his take on "House of the Rising Sun," Watson even offered up a bit of Dylanesque caginess upon receiving a deafening ovation: "If you don't quiet down and listen to the music," he said in mock seriousness, "I'll leave the stage Against the backdrop of the festival's first sunset, the juxtaposition of Dylan against the immense, youth-injected crowd showed the poet's perpetual relevance and ability â€â€? sometimes to the chagrin of more nostalgic listeners â€â€? to reinvent his material It also was evident in Friday's midnight to 3 a "No one can stop you, no one can do anything to you, ever, if you write a good song " Finally, Bonnaroo found release in a near riot-inducing rendition of Phish's "First Tube," massive fireworks exploding in the early morning sky The most significant juxtaposition that Bonnaroo maintains, which is to say the most significant rupture it attempts to mend, is between past and present One of the most powerful performances came from Gillian Welch session, which, despite exhausted festivalgoers sleeping on damp ground less than 100 yards from the stages, was the most energized of the first day Stephen," "Dark Star" and "Slipknot," highlighted the almost spiritual instrumental wanderings that have cemented the Dead's patriarchal position The compelling southern energy of Matthews' songs, paired with the characteristic sense of ecstasy in Anastasio's play, provided a performance fitting of the first mass union of the festival population So the scene at the Nashville airport last Thursday night â€â€? a mass of tie-dyed 40-somethings and sad-eyed hipsters searching desperately for a ticket to a sold-out festival over an hour's drive away â€â€? was testament to the fact that, since the first Bonnaroo in 2002, the idea of music is never stronger than here " When Anastasio's own band took the stage, it was a textured explosion worthy of the festival's climax A history-laden, sing-along set including "The Weight," "Me and Bobby McGee," "Good Lovin" and "Casey Jones" played against a second set that, with Dead classics "St A live realization of his recent solo release, "Seis De Mayo," Anastasio's performance featured him conducting the Nashville Chamber Orchestra (and dressing the part in a black suit) Unstoppable Songs at Bonnaroo Festival Jun 16, 11:39 AM EST As far as many of the musicians who inhabited the stage at the Bonnaroo music festival are concerned, there is no such thing as the "jamband community Clearly rediscovering a degree of childish joy while acting as conduit for an estranged sound which he called "the most beautiful man has ever produced," Anastasio led the ensemble through stirring orchestrations of the Phish compositions "Pebbles and Marbles," "The Inlaw Josey Wales" and a brilliant meshing of "My Friend, My Friend" with fan favorite "Guyute In something of an upset, "Avenue Q," the cheeky little musical that uses puppets, four-letter words and catchy, jinglelike tunes, received Tonys for the best book and score 61 million, an increase from 11 James M "Often I've wondered what does it take for this to happen," said Rashad, who received the prize for her portrayal of Lena Younger, the tough-minded matriarch in a revival of "A Raisin in the Sun The first was the family into which I was born, parents who loved and wanted me and a mother who fought fearlessly, courageously, consistently so that her children above all else could realize their full potential as human beings 42 million a year ago, but still not as high as the 11 " Jefferson Mays bested the much better known Kevin Kline, Christopher Plummer and Frank Langella to take the top acting prize for his portrayal of a German transvestite â€â€? and some 40 other characters â€â€? in Wright's "I Am My Own Wife," a role he called "a labor of love Besides "Wicked," audiences flocked to the revival of "A Raisin in the Sun," with hip-hop mogul Sean Combs the main box-office draw "When we started writing `Avenue Q,' Jeff was an intern and I was a temp," said one of the songwriters, Robert Lopez 'I Am My Own Wife,' Rashad Win at Tonys Jun 6, 9:40 PM EST "I Am My Own Wife," Doug Wright's gender-bending tale of survival, was named best play Sunday at the 2004 Tony Awards 5 million (well, modest compared to the price tag for "Wicked") and theatergoers made such limited engagements as Lincoln Center Theater's two Shakespeare revivals, "Henry IV" and "King Lear," hot tickets, too Nederlander, patriarch of the family which operates nine Broadway theaters, was awarded a lifetime achievement prize Jack O'Brien received the director/play award, for Lincoln Center Theater's limited engagement of Shakespeare's "Henry IV," which also won for best play revival O'Byrne, who plays a serial killer in "Frozen Earlier, history was made as Phylicia Rashad became the first black actress to win the prize for a leading dramatic role " "Assassins," Stephen Sondheim's sardonic musical about presidential killers, picked up five Tonys, including best musical revival and an one for Michael Cerveris, who portrays John Wilkes Booth in the show It takes effort and grace, tremendous self-effort and amazing grace Anika Noni Rose won the featured-actress prize for her role as the defiant daughter in "Caroline, or Change The organization, which Perry headed during World War II, now oversees the Tonys with the League of American Theatres and Producers, an industry trade group The Tonys, officially known as the Antoinette Perry Awards, were founded in 1947 by the Wing, which runs educational and charitable programs " An emotional McDonald said, "The only thing I want ever wanted to do was be on Broadway " "Wicked," a lavish look at the "Wizard of Oz" witches, was celebrated for its spectacle, picking up two design prizes: Eugene Lee for his gargantuan sets for the $14 million musical, and Susan Hilferty for the ornate costumes You can just pretend to on Broadway," joked Cerveris, winner of the award for featured actor in a musical "I was so convinced, I talked myself out of this by repeating my mantra, `We're a classic and we're closed,'" said O'Brien, who directed last year's Tony-winning musical "Hairspray The Tony winners in 21 categories were chosen by 735 theater professionals and journalists " The regional theater award was presented to the Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park Featured acting prizes went to Audra McDonald, her fourth Tony in 10 years, this time for her role as the hardworking wife in the revival of "A Raisin in the Sun," and to Brian F If there was no universally acclaimed, mega-musical such as "The Producers" or "Hairspray," there were several high-profile successes 89 million during the season before the Sept Just before announcing the award, the Broadway legend and rapper did a duet that had the audience roaring and led host Hugh Jackman to crack later: "This just in â€â€? Carol Channing has just been arrested for a drive-by 11, 2001, terrorist attacks "Our lives kinda sucked so we came up with an idea for a show about people like us whose lives all kinda suck " She thanked the cast, her family and said, "This belongs to Lorraine Hansberry," the play's author "Avenue Q" was the first musical of the season to recoup its investment, a modest $3 And in my life that grace has taken numerous forms L and Carol just gave us the Tony Award," said an exuberant Jeff Marx after Carol Channing and LL Cool J gave them the prize " "Our entire cast just won Tony Awards," enthused Wright in accepting the best-play honor Attendance reached 11 " "But we're here to tell you as living proof that things get better "You don't have to kill somebody to get something like this The show also won for direction-musical, Joe Mantello (who won in the play category last year for "Take Me Out"), lighting design (Jules Fisher and Peggy Eisenhauer) and orchestrations (Michael Starobin) " "And now I know Grosses were up, too, from $721 million to $771 million, but so were ticket prices It was a busy year with 39 productions opening on Broadway during the 2003-2004 season, compared to 36 shows the previous 12 months |
