subject:      more tmf (kind of long)

hi to everyone out there!!!

having read all the great comments and discussion the past few
days - i was inspired to put my mind to more interpretation of tmf.

so, the first thing i did was watch the video from watershed a
few times and a few things became clear to me that wasn't at
all clear before.  first, what i thought before was just mish mash -
or unintelligible pieces of graphics...was really just distorted
black and white images of a & e on stage playing or
likewise pitctures of audience crowds staring and reaching
out for a & e on stage. ...and then i noticed that the backdrop of
one side of the wall has on sillouhettes of figures with outstrectched
arms reaching for a & e.

ok, so then i started thinking about how a introduces the song-
saying it was about everything changes...and then after she says
that the video cuts to a very old clip of a & e at the little 5 points
community pub for the strange fire album party (or whatever) and
the graphic tells of how amy unsuccessfully tried to buy the pub
before it was torn down or whatever.

and all this made me think that the song is really about how the music
scene has changed and about all the conflict and ambivalent feelings
that must come along with fame and commercial success.
i think this is broad enough to include all the earlier discussion -
like being about sex/ disappointing family....

so here's how the words fit into all of this...

"waking from a dream"  - as an unknown assumably the goal (dream)
                                     is to become known - shake off the dust
of your
                                     hometown from your feet -make it big...
                                     but now - a has attained the deam, and
now
                                     sees what it is all really like.

"neighborhood is green"   - now green to me connotes life, newness, fresh &
                                       being away from home (touring) makes
old
                                       familiar neighborhood feel alive
again.

"all i've missed..."            - again a feeling of being disconnected from
home

"are wedding deaths & fear" -   ok isolation again from loved ones- family

"all i've heard is in vain"   - again more isolation from not living life at
home.
(like h20 on stain)           maybe a has been kept informed of happenings
                                      but because is not able to participate
in - hearing the
                                      current events of loved ones and family
is just too
                                      frustrating.

**************ok change in tone - more cynical - ****************************

"touch me i'm so beautiful...."   -   as if a says, here i am on stage- i
                                                  asked for it and i got-
here i am i'm famous.
                                                  y'all love me- so eat me
up- touch me-
                                                  touch my head - it's not
worth it if you don't...
                                                  (b & w sillouhettes, hands
outstretched
                                                    toward a & e)

"...are you hiding, i am hiding" -  (obvious- i got to hide my lover, my
family, me)

"cypress moon...
...let your waters let me drown"   -   a has given up - totally open - finds
shelter
                                                     with lover- all masks
gone "bald"

"are your crying, i am crying"         -  more pain from how life has
changed.


now here - with jump, jump, jump...watch me let you down" part.
i read this as both addressing the audience and the family/lover.

first, the audience is going to be sad, distanced from the fame...
a knows the audience wants more- and is not able to give
more (the image from jcs where the crowd grabs at a as jesus
asking for healing really sticks in my mind at this point in time).
(also this is also the feeling i have taken home with me after the
last ig show i went to...too big, too many people...they even had an
elvis impersonator sing on the encores...really disappointing)

second, the lover- both a & lover want more.  want to be together,
share ordinary life of just being home and being together...so there's
disappointment inherent in the present situation.  i.e. singing, being
famous, and being in committed relationship.  can't have it both ways.

"trying to hold rain like a river"  -  and here's the really bitter pill...
                                                nothing can be done to make
situation
                                                better.  hiding before didn't
stop the crying
                                                all efforts slip through
hands like running
                                                water.  love or career ,
language or kiss...

"everything getting bigger-
     better this won't last forever" -   consolation in knowing that there's
always
                                                   an ending somewhere -
successs will fade,
                                                   the tour will end,
retirement - who knows???


ok- if you've read this far....i am nearly done...just a couple more things
that
i really dig:

1. the black and white imagery especially a's shirt - b & w - metaphorically
clear - but the design is lots of interconnected squigglies---metaphorically
not so clear- emily's wearing black and white too.  all the concert footage
is black and white- except the guitars are yellow and red- colorful....
and nature - trees that contect is colorful.  a's clothes change to red and
yellow
after the electric change in tempo-  go crazy with the sexual stuff here----


2.  the mirrors in the video...mirrors - both give clear reflections of
life around it- but also can be deceptive.  the round mirror over a's right
shoulder
especially grabs me whenever it is in the screen.  also - emily's image early
in the video is a reflection.  emily's right handed - but reflection in
mirror
looks like she's playing lefthanded....this whole mirror/ reflection thing-
is real
concrete way of showing how something isn't all it's cracked up to be....

3.  how the words "wedding deaths" are put together...not
"weddings, deaths" as if they were separate events/happenings.
but how wedding could possibly modify deaths....i guess this whole (above)
interpretation could solely go to love relationship - how once a relationship

solidifies in a marriage type situation is changes and it isn't what a
thought
it would be... ok- so i'm going to quit now---

hope i haven't been too annoying or long winded - but gave it a shot.
thoughts, comments???? thanks for reading!!!

take it easy - dana

subject:      tmf...more thoughts

ok...we know amy shaved her head and was bald in june.

i read somewhere that the "all skate now reverse" was in honor of someone who
worked on the album with them who used to say that a lot.

i think the song is mostly about sex.

i adore this song.

i confess, i've had great...um...times, while listening to it, though not on
roller blades. but i will try anything once.

huge grin

love

larissa

p.s. if i owe you a tape, i swear that i have not forgotten. i suck. remind
me. etc. you've heard it before.

hello herbert and everyone else.

yes, daemon records does exist....in reality,
in the land of p.o. boxes, and on the internet! you can see the daemon
records www site at http://monsterbit.com/daemon/ . there are some really
great things to try in the 'new releases' section....

and keep your eyes out for the august release of "honor"...a compilation
cd for the honor the earth campaign (which can also be found at
monsterbit...www.honorearth.com) produced by amy and released by daemon.

there are a lot of really important issues to be addressed concerning the
survival of the sustainable native communities. we hope that the web site
will serve as an educational resource for anyone and everyone.

we will be launching phase 2 of the hte campaign site in conjunction
with the august steet release of honor. some really wonderful artists (matthew
sweet, bonnie raitt, indigo girls, bruce cockburn...just to name a few)
contributed their songs to this record and a whole slew of people and
organizations (indigenous environmental fund, indigenous women's network,
seventh generation fund, daemon records and direct expressions) are
working their tails off trying to shed some light on what's happening. if
you care to be a part, please help spread the word and show your support.

so, now that i've gone off on that diatribe i hope i addressed your
question...yes, daemon records exists :) if you would like to be kept
abreast of what's happening with daemon and honor the earth you can get the
daemon newsletter by sending a message to:
'majordomo@monsterbit.com' with 'subscribe daemonrecs-info'
in the body of the message.

hope that helps.

hey you all!

from a regular lurker - a few days ago someone recommended kris mckay
from austin - and i wanted to mention (in case no one's done this
yet) that a & e sang backup on a couple of her songs - "one moment to
another" (on which you can especially hear amy at the end) and "every
single solitary heart". i forget the name of the album but if you can
find it, it's definitely worth getting. i think i have the name at
home if anyone wants to email me privately for it.

1995 -- huh! magazine

article for huh! magazine

i feel like a snake that just crawled out of it's skin. i've been on a month
long tour called "honor the earth" in support of front line native groups
working for the defense of homelands and ecosystems, the protection of
sacred sites, and the building of sustainable communities. the honor the
earth tour was such a riveting experience and was so successful that we are
planning to make it a part of every indigo girls touring season. we played
15 cities, 4 reservations and one native alaskan community. we participated
in a public hearing and 7 press conferences. when it was over, we had raised
over 300 thousand dollars, passed out 40 thousand information booklets and
supplied over 100 thousand political action post cards. the tour was
sponsored by the indigenous women's network and the seventh generation fund.
the iwn is a network of more than 400 grassroots activists and
organizations. the seventh generation fund is a native controlled private
foundation that supports native american environmental, social justice and
cultural organizations. our political guru for the tour was winona laduke.
winona sits on the board of greenpeace, is co-chair of the indigenous
women's network and is the founder of the white earth land recovery project.
she resides on the white earth reservation in northern minnesota. winona was
a constant source of inspiration and energy, with her nightly opening
speeches and her patience in fielding our persistent questions. our promoter
and tour coordinator, mark tilsen, proved to be our resident expert on
indian policy. mark and his family have a long history of indian activism.
he spent his formative
years on the pine ridge reservation (lakota territory) in south dakota and
was at the 1973 stand-off at wounded knee, an event which inspired mark and
his comrades to start kili radio - voice of the lakota nation - one of the
largest native run radio stations in the country. his company, direct
expressions, is recently responsible for raising funds to build the first
public library on the pine ridge reservation. the other native activists in
our entourage were just as dedicated and inspiring. as the tour progressed,
with each new meeting of a tribal member or an activist, my spiritual
community grew, until i felt my soul stretched across the nations like the
skin on a drum - my heart pounding out - i'd been saved!

native environmental activism demands vulnerability, the spiritual
connections are the root. this is what defines the movement and this is what
makes it a success. the traditional indigenous people of an area are
naturally bonded with their area. they see the elements of an ecosystem as
organs of a living body. their world is an animate world. harmony rather
than dominance defines their basic value system and ecological philosophy.
as colonists, we have been taught to view land in terms of frontiers filled
with unlimited resources to exploit. the corporate mind calls a forest
"timber" and ignores the life sustained by that forest. traditional
indigenous people
depend on the land for food, shelter and their cultural and religious
practices. they have a vested interest in maintaining the health of their
ecosystem because they are a part of it. as a non-indian, i believe we can
learn from the native approach to environmentalism.

i have a notebook full of information on native environmental issues, it's
divided by subject matter, but really the whole book could be titled
"environmental racism". i wish i could give a copy to everyone i meet.
federal governments along with major corporations are mining, clear cutting
and dumping toxic waste all over indian land.
can you imagine someone proposing a nuclear waste dump adjacent to your
residence - you'll be the first one writing letters...heh? get this - the
lubicon cree of northern alberta, canada, are a small nation (500 people)
who have lived off the land north of the peace river for thousands of years.
oil was discovered there in the 1950's and 400 wells have been drilled in
the last two decades. the affects on their traditional subsistence based
lifestyle has been devastating. while in 1980 5% of the lubicon people were
on welfare, just 4 years later 90% required welfare. it gets worse... in
1988 the alberta government sold 12,000 square miles of timber cutting
rights to daishowa manufacturing co, who built a pulp and paper mill at
peace river.  now, the lubicon crees are faced with the construction of a
sour gas plant by unocal adjacent to and upwind of the lubicon village. all
this destruction to a nation of 500 people who never signed a treaty with
the candian government and under canadian and international law should still
retain control of their ancestral land.

it's hard enough to battle racism from corporations and federal governments,
but native environmentalists also experience racism from mainstream
non-indian environmental groups. i learned about this absurdity at a press
conference with native action in bozeman, mt. one of native action's
campaigns is working to preserve the sweet grass hills, a sacred site of the
northern great plains tribe, from gold mining.  as an idealist, i thought
all environmentalists had the same basic goals and interests.  no way! it is
rare for mainstream environmental groups to focus on indigenous
environmental concerns much less have any indigenous people on their boards.
most of these groups are out saving the earth so we can hike around, go
mountain biking, have a picnic or show our kids what a moose looks like; as
opposed to the native communities that depend on the land for their survival
and spiritual practices. these mainstream groups don't even consider
protecting sacred sites because then we
couldn't use them for our recreation. also, indian sovereignty is a point of
conflict because mainstream environmental groups want to retain control and
they don't respect the fact that indians know how to take care of the land
they've lived on for thousands of years. for example - while visiting the
white earth reservation in northern minnesota, i learned that the white
earth land recovery project is currently engaged in a struggle to retain
tribal management of the tamarack national wildlife refuge. this land
originally belonged to the tribe, but is now controlled by the national fish
and wildlife commission. the sierra club gave a definite no to supporting tribal
management of the refuge, but who better to manage the land than the people
who subsist on it? there are some enlightened mainstream groups such as
greenpeace.  greenpeace has indigenous board members and is on the forefront
of many native environmental issues.

it's unbelievable what the federal government has done to the indians. first
we come in like gangsters, rude and violent, take what we want (to hell with
who we hurt), make a bunch of treaties then break every one of them. and
then, because we are being lazy and close-minded, we impose an easily
exploitable form of government and
economic system on all the tribes - not taking into account diversity in
language,  culture or leadership. we can't deal with traditional native
leadership and culture - it's too spiritual, too subjective, it makes us
feel too vulnerable. so, we relocate and reconfigure a culture that, if left
alone could help us save ourselves from ultimate destruction. let's look at
an example of how our government's policies affect the indians. in alaska,
rather than create reservations, the federal government decided to impose a
system called ancsa (alaskan native claims settlement act) which would put
into place "native owned" corporations who would handle the land and
resources of the community. this system would encourage "modernization and
economic development" rather than traditional subsistence based lifestyles.
native alaskans were given one billion dollars and 44 million acres, about
1/10 of the state, to handle through these corporations. keep in mind that
the us never _legally_ owned
alaskan land, so they actually stole that other 90%. one such corporation,
the eyak corporation, has a board of directors made up of only 10% eyak
natives. so decisions made about the native eyak community are made by
mostly non-eyaks and a lot of people who don't even live in the area. how
much difference does that make?
first the eyak rain forest gets pummeled by the exxon valdez oil spill and
then the corporation wants to sell their timber rights and clear cut the
land. i stood in a circle of 15 people on a boat in prince william sound
praying as logs were ripped out of the earth, wondering where are 300 eyak
natives gonna go? what if i only had 300
people left in my tribe, and someone was _giving_ away my lifeline...? if
all the responsibility seems to fall before your time... remember who you
voted for in the last few elections. did they support nafta or gatt? now,
look into what those agreements really mean to indigenous people - it's not
a pretty sight.

so, where's the hope you ask. actually, there is hope. much of what the
grassroots native environmental groups do is a success. what they lack in
operating budgets, they make up for with solid and courageous political
strategies and a lot of commitment. out of 100 proposed nuclear sites in the
last few years, 98 have been defeated. on the hopi reservation, solar power
is being installed in many hopi dwellings by the native owned hope solar
foundation. the lakota people (second poorest country in the nation, with an
average annual income of $3,700) have stood up against the us government and
refused money for the sacred black hills. a treaty in 1868 guaranteed this
land to the lakota nation for "as long as the grass grows" and they intend
to keep it. when we gave a concert at jemez pueblo, the native american
youth empowerment group performed for us, and gave me hope for the future
leaders of the native peoples. as non-indians we can help by getting
involved and showing
support. make an effort to get to know different indian nations and their
cultures. because we have mythologised indians, it's hard not to feel a
barrier; i felt one myself until i started asking questions. so go out and
get to know your neighbors. vote your conscience, write letters, be an
informed consumer, subscribe to enlightened environmental publications, surf
the net, be a world citizen. and the next time you turn on your lights,
remember that someone's place of worship or food gathering area might have
been bulldozed for that electricity. don't let the guilt hold you down, let
the knowledge empower you.

subject:      more tmf

just another quick thought on tmf.
i'm enjoying everyone's stabs at interpretations, but part of me has to wonder
if amy herself even truly understands all the images. i really do think it's
about sex, and because of that i think it's supposed to be kinda nonsensical
and wild. to back up this statement i'm gonna once again mention the viva la
diva song "when you're ready" (i can't believe i called it 'are you ready'
before, i was running short on brain cells that day.) seriously folks, go
listen to that song, and then listen to tmf. the two songs are (imho)
definitely related, and there ain't _no_one_ here who can doubt for an instant
that when you're ready is about sex.

and one more thought on the "bald in june" bit. i haven't read everyone's post
so i don't know if this has been cleared up or not, but amy really was bald in
june in '93 i think. she shaved her head. no, really, she did. she sometimes
sings it, "i was bald in june" because, well, she was. so there really is a
hidden grain of seriousness in my "hair post." :) :)

i was wondering -- which recording has the slow land of canaan?  is it the
'86 "indigo girls"?

is it really that much slower than the strange fire version?

if anybody has this recorded on tape please lemme know, maybe we can trade.
or is it really rare?  i have no idea.  just wanna hear that song (if it's
significantly different.)

subject:      ig live boots wanted

ok...we all want something...i just thought i'd put my little request out
there and ask if anyone has boots of shows that i have been to - mostly in
and near cincinnati.

i'm especially interested in hearing the april 4, 1989 show at riverfront
coliseum in cinti when they opened for rem.  b/c i am catching up with
digests and just read that epic press release for rop...it says ctf went gold
in sept. '89 and hit the billboard hot 100 in july '89.  so i wonder what
they sounded like before they knew they had a hit on their hands.  cuz i mean
i saw 'em open for rem that night and went and bought their record (based on
secure yourself mostly).  but the place was so big i could hardly hear them
(or see 'em -- specks, dontcha know).

so, if anybody could indulge me, i bet i've got some good stuff send you in
return.  looking for:

4/4/89 @ riverfront coliseum in cincinnati (w/rem)
1991 @ bogarts in cinti (w/ejs)
1992 @ cinti zoo w/matthew sweet & gerard mchugh)
1993 @ bogarts in cinti (w/ mm)
7/10/94 @ fraze pavilion, dayton oh (w/caroline aiken)
4/8/94 @ market square arena, indianapolis, in (w/ferron)
4/12/95 @ athens, ohio [amy's 31st birthday -- big ol' soc] (w/ferron)


thanks y'all,

subject:      a final tmf interpretation...

...before we move on to the infinitely-less-deep wood song:
i propose a radical new interpretation of tmf. we all know that amy and
cats have a major thing going on. consider sy. consider dmh. consider ptntf
. so, maybe it's pretty safe to assume that whenever we encounter a
particularly dense and obtuse amy-song, it's about...cats!
i propose the feline interpretation of tmf.

"i'm waking from a dream the neighborhood is green"
we all know that cats spend a large percentage of time sleeping, and that
cats dream. of course, lots of sleep implies lots of waking up.

"all the sounds i've missed all the years come down to wedding deaths and
fears"
if you spent 18 hours a day in the dream world, you'd miss plenty of sounds
too. as for weddings: have you ever seen a cat at a wedding? or a funeral?
or a scaredy cat (the popular idiom notwithstanding)?

"all i've heard has been in vain like water on a stain"
do cats ever listen to anything you tell them? hah! and "water on a stain"
is certainly a fitting analogy for a feline to use, especially if said
feline has not yet been neutered.

"touch me, i'm so beautiful, rub your hands across my head just like this"
all the cats *i* know think they're beautiful and luuuv having their heads
rubbed.

"come with me, it's not worth it if you don't/ are you hiding, i am hiding"
clearly an invitation to come and explore the cat's secret hiding places (
all the cats i know love to hide, too).

"cypress moon, bald in june, like the granite in a stream"
cats are nocturnal and spend plenty of time under the influence of the moon
. as for bald in june...that's prime flea season, isn't it? and granite,
too, is bald, so the poor fleabitten creature is clearly drawing an analogy
to her experience in the experience of smooth granite.

"come with me, it's not worth it if you don't/ are you crying, i am crying"
the repeated invitation reveals an initial unwillingness on the part of the
invited one, inducing sadness and crying in the cat (ever heard a cat cry?)

"swamp ophelia, i'm torn down, let your waters let me drown"
if you were a poor, bald, fleabitten cat, you'd want to drown too.

"jump jump jump so high watch me let you down"
cats can jump way high, and are known for letting their humans down.

"if i stumble i will stumble if i fall i will fall"
an articulation of the blase, zen-like feline world-view.

"i'm trying to hold it like rain in a river, everything is getting bigger"
ever tried to hold a cat who doesn't want to be held? worse than rain in a
river -- the scratch marks along your arms will just get bigger and bigger.

"better this won't last forever/ touch me fall"
the cat's final cry, realizing as she falls to her death that nothing lasts
forever.

this opens up a whole new school of ig interpretation. "hide
yourself for me, i will hide myself for you..." -- we've already observed
the feline fondness for hiding. "all the details of this war are just self
-infatuation" -- cats are notoriously self-infatuated. the feline ethos
even infiltrates emily-songs: "i better learn how to swim cuz the crossing
is chilly and wide" -- most cats don't know how to swim. yea, verily, i
cheer on an entirely new error^h^h^ha of ig interpretation from a feline
perspective.

subject:      gay in america series (nigc)

hi y'all,

the san francisco examiner just completed a really excellent seven-part
series on various aspects of the gay experience in america...  they've now
got most of it on the web, the address is:
http://www.sfgate.com/examiner/special/gia/
looks like they've got parts 1-6 up so far, the seventh, on gay/lesbian/bi
high school students, is featured in today's paper, and hopefully will be
up on the web soon as well.  the series is full of really great interviews
and essays, check it out.

and by the way, a couple upcoming shows of interest to any other bay area
type listies, both at the greek theater on the berkeley campus:  nanci
griffith and the chieftains july 28, and sarah mclachlan, with paula cole
and suzanne vega august 3rd!!!  i am so there!

peace

scot

subject:      bumbershoot

i was reading old ani listserv digests and stumbled across some messages
about people waiting 4+ hours in line to see ani at bumbershoot. this was
last summer when she wasn't as popular (is she popular? i have no way of
really knowing if the highschool kid down the street knows who she is but
i do know she is displayed at cellophane square as a "hot seller").

anyway, i can't imagine what the wait will be to see a&e. grin

subject:      ani article (nigc)

i thought i'd post this for all you ani fans who were nice enough to suggest
her music to me. it's from musician magazine (august 1996).

ani difranco: the seductive tyranny of youth culture
        by ani difranco

        i was thinking the other day about this great pearl jam lyric on vs
- something about "protect your youth/like mohammed, it's the truth." for
me, that song sums up the attitude of our culture in general: we have no
respect for our elders. youth is everything. the longer you can stay young,
the better.
        that's one reason why i signed utah phillips as the first artist -
other than me - on my label [righteous babe]. he's not all that old, but
he's been to the mountain and he's seen the valley. so what do you do when
you're someone like utah - an anarchist, a wayfaring story teller - and you
don't even have a fucking pension?
        people like utah have a lot of useful information for the rest of us
and there's a maturity in their playing that can be very instructive. sure,
there's an understandable suspicion toward older people playing youth music,
when they're still out there "rebelling" and we know they have the house and
the family and the two cars. you'd expect music to change as the person does.
        but what i'm really interested in is musical impressions other than
just the youthful. while there's something wonderful and beautiful about the
energy of young musicians, the most profound musical decisions come with
experience, which is to choose not to play or sing something.
        there's also a certain arrogance with young folks, myself included,
like we're so special. when you get older you realize that you're not, and
that's an important lesson. we're not the only voice out there. it's
ridiculous to think that other people's expressions don't apply to us.
        you don't need to get on your knees and pray to youth pop culture.
if you do, there's so much you'll miss, from underground music to old folk
singers like utah phillips. there's a world beyond the 14-year-old ubermodel
of the month.

hi everyone,

this is just a note to kind of remind everyone i'm trading with that i'm
going away in just over a week.  which means that if you're planning
to take part in the tree for the red light or for the two nofj tapes, and
you haven't sent me your tapes yet, do it now.  or if we had any other
trades in the offing, send me a note quickly so we can finalise things.
i'm leaving on the 10th of july and i won't be back until the start of
september (assuming that i don't get axe-murdered somewhere along
the way, o'course. :)  and i'm going to be very busy packing etc in the
next week and a half...

anyway, consider yourselves warned.  you american folks might want
to think about finding suitable hiding places soon too... :)
take care all,
sherlyn

subject:      absolutely positively nigc, just help!

i know this really has no place on this list, but i really need some help.
if you know anything about eudora, please read on. if not just trash this
now. :)

anyway, i'm upgrading my pc to one with more memory and a faster modem and
some other stuff. that's the good news! the bad news is, i don't want to
lose my list letters that i've saved. there are sooooooooooooooooooo many.
plus all my other mail.  does anyone out there have eudora and have a clue
how i go about moving this stuff from one pc to the other? i still have the
disk for eudora, so it's only the saved stuff i'm worried about.

sorry to take up space with this, but i really don't want to lose all my
wonderful letters. you all understand, don't you?

hugs,
deb
