Throughout America's adventure in free government, our basic purposes have been to keep the peace; to foster progress in human achievement, and to enhance liberty, dignity and integrity among people and among nations. To strive for less would be unworthy of a free and religious people. Any failure traceable to arrogance, or our lack of comprehension or readiness to sacrifice would inflict upon us grievous hurt both at home and abroad. ~ Dwight D. Eisenhower

The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth becomes the greatest enemy of the State. ~ Joseph Goebbels

Forget the politicians. They are irrelevant. The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice. You don't. You have no choice! You have OWNERS! They own you! They own everything. They own all the important land. They own and control the corporations. They've long since bought, and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the state houses, the city halls, they got the judges in their back pockets and they own all the big media companies, so they control just about all of the news and information you get to hear. ~ George Carlin

Ralph Davis ~ Autumn Fenders ~ Celebrate 21st year of Hardly Strictly Bluegrass October 1-3
Hardly Strictly BluegrassHello Everyone,
Please join us on October 1-3 to celebrate the 21st year of Hardly Strictly Bluegrass. Although we will not be gathering together in the park this year, we have assembled three full days of music for you all to enjoy.
Our show will alternate live music sets with pre-recorded sets that were filmed earlier in the year. We will stream live each day from 1pm to 9pm Pacific Time.
The live sets will not be available after the festival is over. You will only be able to see those live as they are happening, Oct 1-3.
We will be sharing shortened versions of the pre-recorded sets during the day and then the full sets on HSB TV which is launching Friday night after the festival shuts down for the evening. Stay tuned to our site hardlystrictlybluegrass.com and our social sites to get the link. The app will be available on Apple TV & Roku. Not only will you be able to enjoy the full-length episodes of “Come What May” which we filmed in New Orleans & San Francisco earlier this year, we will also include our critically acclaimed film from 2020, “Let The Music Play On” in its entirety as well as all the bonus episodes of “Let The Music Play On & On” we aired over the past year.
Our broadcast can be found in the following places: hardlystrictlybluegrass.com, facebook.com/hardlystrictlybluegrass, and youtube.com/user/hsbfest. Xfinity customers can simply say "Hardly Strictly" into the Xfinity Voice Remote or stream on Xfinity X1 and Xfinity Flex to watch on that platform.
Please share this info with your friends. During the broadcast we will be checking in with everyone on social media, asking you how you are celebrating this year; with friends, in backyards, living rooms or on the go.
We will have live sets from some artists who have never played before like Las Cafeteras and Tallest Man On Earth as well as returning favorites Mavis Staples, Béla Fleck and Lake Street Dive. Enjoy filmed sets from Rainbow Girls, Seratones, Ani DiFranco, Bob Mould and several others. And there are still Hardly Strictly traditions to be had: Steve Earle & Emmylou Harris will help us close out Saturday & Sunday respectively.
We look forward to hearing from everyone and are excited that we are just days away from bringing you the very best in roots music, from our house to yours.
All the Best

We begin with an hour of oldies back to back to back starting at 6am (EDT) Saturday on Boptime. At 7am (EDT) we head back to around this time in 1956 in a world where we make a connection between country and Hawaiian music as well as other tunes from the era. At 8am (EDT) on Rockabilly Ridge, Michael Ace spins some tunes heard in rock n’ roll movies of the 1950s. At 9am (EDT) on Beatlemania!!! we’ll bop back to this day in 1964 when the British music invasion was infusing the hit music charts on both sides of the big pond with a cross section of American and British rock n’ roll. ~ Steve

How it happened
Silk Road Trading Routes
Old trade routes do not fade away; they morph into sea routes, train routes, air routes, or major highways.
Large Image, by Kelvin Case, Seidenstrasse_GMT.jpg revision., CC BY-SA 3.0The West had a hot burning desire for Eastern silk. In turn, trading routes were established and the Silk Road touched a majority of 'central' places.
Silk Road primarily refers to the land, but also sea routes, connecting East Asia and Southeast Asia with South Asia, Persia, the Arabian Peninsula, East Africa and Southern Europe.
It was a network of trade routes connecting the East and West, that was central to the economic, cultural, political, and religious interactions between these regions from the 2nd century BCE to the 18th century.
It is worthwhile knowing because of Silk Road trading, the shaman, ...[Continue Reading].

Keith Lampe (Ro-Non-So-Te / Ponderosa Pine), with Doug Adamz on Tibetan Bell, created a Western mnemonic called Vocal Energy Health.
With VEH (Vocal Energy Health), after a few sessions of imitating these sounds, one can start doing them alone or--even better--with others; creating an effective practice that requires no gear.

Grofé arranged “Rhapsody in Blue” for Paul Whiteman and George Gershwin. The remainder of the program, beginning at 8am (EDT), will be The Secret City of Jazz, a story about the history of jazz from Wilmington from the late 20th century that can’t be told enough, in words and music from archival recordings. ~ Steve

Boptime ~ w/Even Steven Leech ~ Saturday Mornings
We begin with an hour of oldies back to back to back starting at 6am (EDT) Saturday on Boptime. At 7am (EDT) we head back to 1949, in the World that could have been, even though it would’ve been one we would never have lived in. However, music between a parallel world and the actual one would’ve been pretty much the same. At 8am (EDT) on Rockabilly Ridge, Michael Ace plays tunes about “teenage love.” At 9am (EDT) we begin with what we might call “post Beatlemania.” At this time in 1971 the Beatles had broken up 9 months earlier, but John, Paul, George and Ringo were making music on their own, including the song that was #1 on this day in 1971. Because it’s Labor Day weekend, we’ll close out Boptime with historic songs about the working life - or perhaps the non working or barely working life – in America over the decades of the 20th century. ~ Steve

Dahbud Mensch ~ Rethinking 9/11 ~ WHEN HISTORY REPEATS... DO WE NOTICE ?
YOU ARE LOOKING AT
A US GOVERNMENT LIE
On Friday 14 December 2001 a videotape of Osama bin Laden "confessing" to the 9/11 attacks was released. The tape was supposedly found in a house in Qandahar, Afghanistan. The recording was of very poor audio and visual quality and the authenticity of the tape was questioned.
This annoyed President Bush who said "[It is] preposterous to think this tape was doctored."
Okay, let's have a look.
Here's 5 Osama's - which is the odd one
out?
11 Questions Avoided
by Corporate Media On NORAD Tapes
1. *Who was responsible for scheduling multiple war games and terror exercises involving aircraft for Sept. 11th
2. Who moved "Global Guardian" normally scheduled for October to September?
3. Who designed the war games to involve 'hijackings'?
4. Who planned and scheduled the movement of Airforce aircraft north to Canada, Alaska and Greenland?
5. Who planned the terror exercise at the NRO (National Reconnaissance Office) involving an evacuation in response to threat from the air?
6. Who was "hands-on" responsible for coordinating all the war games the morning of September 11th?
7. Who would have been responsible for turning off the war games to enable a timely real world response to the attacks?
8. How were as many as 21 false radar blips or possible targets (per Jane Garvey) inserted into FAA radar screens?
9. Who was responsible for the identification of ghost flight 11 which allegedly continued to fly south past Manhattan and which may have caused NORAD's Langley intercept jets to vector North toward NYC rather than D.C.? * [NOTE: John Farmer of the 9/11 Commission said to me personally that the 9/11 Commission was never able to identify the individual for this information--to resolve this anomaly.]*
10. Why was there no reference to the pattern of 9/11 Commission cover-up including that of Able Danger as revealed by Capt. Scott Philpott?
11. *The bottom line question that corporate media refuse to answer and which the 9/11 Commission ignored is who, specifically, would have been responsible for creating the circumstances that led to the confusion or fog the morning of 9/11 and who should have immediately ceased any and all war gaming activity and deceptive radar data?
To begin to answer these questions journalists intent on getting answers to questions long asked by the families and others should visit:

There are more than 40 federal offenses for which the death penalty can be applied to human beings, most of them connected to homicide of one kind or another. But countless homicides committed by the artificial persons we call corporations go unpunished every day. Apparently "personal responsibility applies only to humans who are not operating behind the legal shield of corporate personhood. - [Continue Reading]

Dahbud Mensch ~ Your Vain Resistance
When any of you seek to resist us, we have ways of making you look ridiculous with corporate media, as we have done with all your movements to show the world how impotent any resistance is.
Look at what we did near Waco. Did the Davidian's little store of weapons help them?
We have generously taxed you and used that money to make such sophisticated weapons you can in no way compete. Your own money has served to forge the chains we bind you with; especially, since we are in control of all money.
Some of you think you may escape by buying some land in the country and growing a garden. Let me remind you that you still pay us ground rent. Oh, you may call it property taxes, but it still goes to us.
You see, you need money no matter what you do. If you fail to pay your ground rent to us, we will take your land and sell it to someone who will pay us. Do you think we cannot do this? And with your ground rent we pay for the indoctrination of your children in the public schools we have set up.
We want them to grow up well trained into the system of our thinking. Your children will learn what we want them to learn, when we want them to learn it, and you pay for it through your ground rent.
Those funds are also used for other projects we have in mind, like drilling for oil in the Gulf, and our contractors are paid handsomely for their work.
You may doubt that we own your children, or have such control, but you will find that we do. We can declare that you abuse your children, when you spank them, and have them confiscated. If they do not show up for school indoctrination, we can accuse you of neglect, thereby, giving them to us.
Your children are not yours. They are ours. You must inoculate them, you must bring them to our hospitals, if we decree, or we will take them from you. You know this and we know this.
Through our electronic commerce and iDevices we are able to see where you are, what you are buying, and how much you have to buy things with. Where do you suppose we come up with our monthly financial statistics?
Through the Internet, Telecoms, and other sources we can even know how you think and what you say. It is not especially important to us what you believe as long as you do what we say.
Your beliefs are nonsense anyway. But if you think you have a following, and we perceive that you might be somewhat dangerous to our agenda, we have ways to deal with you. Do you remember how we used Telecoms to spy for us?
We have a Pandora's box of mischief with which to snare you. We can have you in court so long, you will never get out. We can easily drain away all your assets over one pretext or another. We have an inexhaustible fund with which to draw from to pay our lawyers.
These lawyers are paid by you in the form of taxes. You do not have this vast supply of wealth. We know how to divide and conquer. Have we not brought down rulers of countries through our devices?
Do you think your tiny self will be any match for us? [Continue Reading]

Freedom of expression and freedom of speech aren't really important unless they're heard...It's hard for me to stay silent when I keep hearing that peace is only attainable through war.

The Sacred Clowns ~ Heyókȟa
The Heyókȟa symbolize and portray many aspects of the sacred, the Wakȟáŋ. Their satire presents important questions by fooling around. They ask difficult questions, and say things others are too afraid to say. By reading between the lines, the audience is able to think about things not usually thought about, or to look at things in a different way.
Principally, the Heyókȟa functions both as a mirror and a teacher, using extreme behaviors to mirror others, thereby forcing them to examine their own doubts, fears, hatreds, and weaknesses. Heyókȟas also have the power to heal emotional pain; such power comes from the experience of shame--they sing of shameful events in their lives, beg for food, and live as clowns. They provoke laughter in distressing situations of despair and provoke fear and chaos when people feel complacent and overly secure, to keep them from taking themselves too seriously or believing they are more powerful than they are.
In addition, sacred clowns serve an important role in shaping tribal codes. Heyókȟa's don't seem to care about taboos, rules, regulations, social norms, or boundaries. Paradoxically, however, it is by violating these norms and taboos that they help to define the accepted boundaries, rules, and societal guidelines for ethical and moral behavior. This is because they are the only ones who can ask "Why?" about sensitive topics and employ satire to question the specialists and carriers of sacred knowledge or those in positions of power and authority. In doing so, they demonstrate concretely the theories of balance and imbalance. Their role is to penetrate deception, turn over rocks, and create a deeper awareness.

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make. ~ John Lennon
The man whispered, "God, speak to me" and a meadowlark sang. But the man did not hear. So the man yelled "God, speak to me" and the thunder rolled across the sky. But the man did not listen. The man looked around and said, "God let me see you" and a star shined brightly. But the man did not notice. And the man shouted, "God show me a miracle" and a life was born. But the man did not know. So the man cried out in despair, "Touch me God, and let me know you are there" Whereupon God reached down and touched the man, But the man brushed the butterfly away and walked on.
Don't miss out on a blessing because
it isn't packaged the way you expect!
