The Music's Never Loud Enough: September 2007
http://jamesisbellmyc.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 24, 2007. Close to a Topic? I'm finally deciding on a topic for my research.or getting close to one, rather: "Alternative Folk and Country: Iron and Wine and Josh Ritter emend the oral tradition.". It will depend on finding solid ethnographic sources, and I'm sure that the topic might change within the subject matter, but it is a starting point at least. Check back soon!

Sabrina's Research Blog: November 2007
http://mycsabrina.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 1, 2007. This is going to be a very long post (just to warn you). I posted this survey online on Voices For Rent (voicesforrrent.com) to get some thoughts from fans. I got a lot of lengthy responses, which was inevitable with these kinds of questions, so I won’t post them all, but here are some bits and pieces, or overall generalizations, that I think are very interesting and telling:. 1 How and when did you first hear of Rent? 3 Why do you like the show? 8220;The show is raw and truth...

http://jamesisbellmyc.blogspot.com/2007/12/im-inside-with-my-friends-we-build.html
Tuesday, December 11, 2007. I'm inside with my friends we build fires and pretend that the night could just bend on forever. A conclusion to my previous discussion with Steffen about some of these themes surrounding Josh Ritter, the folk genre, and a breeding internet culture. James Isbell: well.i was going to ask how you got introduced to Josh Ritter? Steffen: harrisburg was the first song. Steffen: it was in andy's basement. Steffen: andy had left the song on for over 1000 plays. Steffen: he hears of a...

Sabrina's Research Blog: a brief summary of a loaded history
http://mycsabrina.blogspot.com/2007/12/brief-summary-of-loaded-history.html
Sunday, December 9, 2007. A brief summary of a loaded history. In order to understand the value, message, and fans of RENT, one must know about its history and its creator, Jonathan Larson. Fans say that this separates the true fans from casual fans. Knowing its history also has a great affect on how the show is received. Therefore, I will attempt to summarize an intense history in a brief post before my final ethnography posting. That night, Jonathan Larson died. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Wednesday, December 12, 2007. Rockin' out on Broadway: RENT and its fans (the culmination of my research this semester). A Broadway phenomenon that touches hearts of all ages. A fresh, new sound that brought a new generation to the theater. A lasting, emotional story that has stood out for over a decade. This, my friends, is RENT. This is a collage I made for a different class (Playwriting) in response to RENT. Rentheads at the Life Cafe. Came mostly from teenagers who visited the site daily. Most we...

Sabrina's Research Blog: September 2007
http://mycsabrina.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 24, 2007. No Day But Today. Hello and welcome one and all to my ethnography blog. This blog will be specifically dedicated to the research and study of the musical. Its history, its production, and most importantly, its fan base. Musical theater is one rather overlooked musical subculture, and. With such a large following and unusual "rock opera" style music, could easily be considered a subculture of its own. With this blog, I will be looking into all that is. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
