Maybe its my fondness for pubs/taverns so frequent in my home-land of New England. Or maybe Im just

another mid-twenties gal falling into the trend of romancing over steampunk.

Either way, I really dig the new rustic and eclectic

downtown Greenville establishments, the Trappe Door

and the Velo Fellow.

I like vintage bikes, infusing alcohol, micro-brews, vinyl

records, big rustic wood tables, exposed brick buildings

and copper is my favorite metal. Minus the record player,

all of these can be found at the Velo Fellow. If you need

to visit a place filled with things to look at (after you stop by the Soda Shoppe and the Other Side), the Velo

Fellow is rifled with shiny and distracting things, including Shuffle Board.

After gaping at the gravity-daunting High Wheeler

(also known as one of the original 19th Century bikes,

the Penny-Farthing, you know, with the giant front

wheel and tiny back wheel) hanging from the ceiling,

the next exciting attribute to direct your attention to is

their menu featuring, my favorite, a fried green tomato

BLT po boy and a list of fine beverages. If you ask, the

bartender will tell you the list of their current infused bourbons.

The orange and cherry Woodford Reserve infusedbourbon? If they still have it, order it.

If there is one last reason that I had to say I am just giddy

over at the Velo Fellow, I would say is the water. The

Trappe Door has an equal presentation when it comes

to water served at a downtown Greenville restaurant.

However, there is no need to ask for lemon with your

tap water at the Velo Fellow, its already fruit infused.

1 Orange (thinly sliced)

If you intend to drink it all fairly quickly, leave the

fruit in the bottle with the bourbon and do your

friends a favor: serve them a blueberry or two.

Unlike that amous three-hour tour stranding Gilligan, The Skipper, and those ve passengers on a tropical

paradise, theres a three-hour tour in Greenville on dry ground thatll transport you to a culinary paradise. Its a

trip you can take over and over again. Its also a perect way or you to entertain out o town guests and showo our grand city at the same time.

Each Saturday John Nolan leads

small groups on a culinary tour o

ve downtown restaurants. When

I joined him we visited Nose Dive,

Sobys on the Side, The Lazy

Goat, Sobys New South Cuisine,

and Deverauxs. Each stop

eatured exquisite ood, rousingconversation, and intriguing

VIP-behind-the-scenes secrets

about each venue. For instance,

every tomato served at Nose Dive

is handpicked rom Table 301s

own garden. Now thats attention to detail! Nose Dive is also one o the ew places in town youll be able to

order sweet potato ries. Worth it.

Between each stop John regaled us with stories o Greenvilles past. His knowledge o our heritage is more

than ascinatingit invigorates a sense o pride in community. Greenville has a rich heritage. We were

ounded and built by people willing to take huge risks and committed to building a real community.

Johns At the Ches Table culinary tours are worth it or the ood and ellowship alone. Add to

that the historical insight youll gain and

the heart-warming sense o pride youll

leave with, and you have the recipe or a

memorable weekend.

As a music producer, my job requires me to make the critical and final decisions necessary to complete a

song, or an album. I know that sounds simple, but that means I need to decide who plays on a particular track,

how to record the song, and how to work out the arrangement and style. In addition, I have to sometimessacrifice what I would like to do to stay on budget, all while dealing with lets just say passionate musicians.

And, Ive found that dealing with passionate musicians is an art form within itselfwhich leads me to

my original thoughtWhat is art? Well music is certainly art, and I create that for sure. Live performance,

recording, mixing and masteringall art. My brother is a photographer, and he too is an artist. Sculptors,

dancers, writers all artists.

If you Google art, www.art.com is the first link that appears. This site sells posters and prints of paintings.

Websters defines art as the conscious use of skill and creative imagination especially in the production of

aesthetic objects; also: works so produced.

Well, it seems like its one of those words like love. There are thousands of songs, poems and books written

on the subject, but the true meaning still somehow escapes you. I have always defined art as expressing

yourself in the way that comes most naturally to you.

Last week, I learned more about art than I have learned in the past 10 years in my music studio. Ric

Standridge is a local painter/artist that has been very successful in his craft regionally as well as nationally. I

was lucky enough to collaborate with him at a live event. I have a band called Red Against Green that plays

every now and again locally, and Ric and I thought it would be fun to do a show together. We decided on

Chicora Alley downtown for the venue, and Fete was into the idea of sponsoring it.

What The Hell is Art?!?!?!?!?!By Matt Morgan, Producer/Owner Sit-N-Spin Recording Studios

The night was incredible! Ive played literally thousands o shows, rom perormances in ront o two people

in a coee house to playing or a sea o people at national estivals, but this was the most memorable by ar!

The band started playing and then Ric eased into his painting station to the let o the stage. As the music got

more intense it aected his choice o color and painting strokes. That in turn aected the crowd. There were

3 proessional photographers and a lm maker capturing video who documented the entire event. From the

camera fashes to Rics graceul movements, which sometimes seemed as i they were conducting the music

and sometimes the other way around, it must have elt like a sensory explosion or the audience. Their level oenergy ed us oxygen or our re.

Somewhere in the middle o all that, I realized I was art. So was everyone in that room.

We all are art. I elt everyone there that night they were a part o something bigger

than just themselves. For a moment, we created art together.

Standridge says o his most recent painting experience with Matt Morgan and his band, Red Against Green:

I have been a an o Matt Morgan or a while now, rom the frst time I heard him play at Smileys.

I knew he was a true artisan o the guitar. So I have always wanted to paint the guitar ris and cuts

that he produces. Matt has a distinctive style, where on many occasions during a song, he takes a

single note, and then he will stretch it out, or pull it, until that note then becomes 5 or 12 notes, flling

up the space in harmony. I play guitar a bit, so I understand where the sound is coming rom, but

to produce it, well, thats another story. The paintings produced rom a live venue, such as painting

with Matt, the end result o the paint, the choice o color, the movement and energy; it could never

be produced with the same intensity and spirit, i painted in the studio. The music perormed live, the

movement o the musicians, the movement o the crowd, and all actors into the fnished painting.

at The Square

At age 16 in August 1971 while visiting my New York

City relatives I ell into a once in a lietime chance

when my sainted Aunt Janet convinced a young

swingin type business riend o theirs to

let this South Carolina teenager use his

extra ticket and take me to George

Harrisons Concert For Bangladesh at

Madison Square Garden. Sitting in nearly

the back row I joined thousands o peopleas we took in Ravi Shankar, saw and heard

George Harrison, Ringo Starr, Billy Preston,

Bob Dylan (OMG!), Leon Russell, and Eric

Clapton all perorming in on smooth fowing

set o lie changing perormances. Forty

years later it still seems like a dream.

POWER INTOXICATION

and BEAUTY

Awe inspiring in its power and intoxicating in its beauty.

Thats the way I would describe the artistry and virtuosity o

classical pianist Martha Argerich and the magic to be ound

on this gem o a new 6CD set. Grab this budget priced

collection ($24.98) and get a ront row seat to hours o live

perormances by Argerich and a host o her legendary

riends teaming up or a piano duo and piano 4 hands

extravaganza. Listening to these other worldly joy lled

perormances one can sit at home andbe amazed and moved as the obviously

awed just as the real audiences

obviously were by everything rom

Mozart and Brahms to Shostakovich

and Piazzolla. The splendid recording

quality o these only serves to make

this set more enticing.

The HIP HOP AFFECT

In the recent thumpin release department I go

with a CD or LP masterpiece by J Rawls called

The Hip-Hop Aect. Rawls grew rom a hip

hop anatic as a kid to become one o the

architects o progressive independent Hip-Hop

o the 90s creating a legendary status or

himsel via his production and beat making

work with Mos De and Talib Kweli as Black

Star and then Lone Catalyst. This newest eort

joyously calls up the spirit in beats and words o the best to beound in Jazz and Funk infected Old School. Rawls takes his

passion or Hip-Hop as positive orce seriously and blends it into

varied but logical fow o ull on Rap tracks and jazzier unk

goodies all underpinned with an unerring crat in beat artistry. The

message is clear, the bounce is deadly and the vibe is righteous.

godather when he makes his return to

The Handlebar on Saturday August 13 at 9pm. Johnny though

no spring chicken, will dish out his signature blend o Robert

Johnson style country blues, ull orce electric blues and ahealthy dose o RocknRoll pumped Blues Rock. Hometown

avorite sons Marvin & Marcus King Band will open the show

Rich or poor, married or single, Ive always been

blessed with a green thumb.

As a nancially challenged newlywed my rst

apartment didnt have much in the way o

creature comorts such tables and chairs so I

lled the empty spaces with large inexpensive

plants. Ferns, scheferas and cus all

fourished while my

marriage didnt.

That tiny apartment

became a house in the

country when husband #2

came into the picture. I

now had almost an acre

ull o fowerbeds and

vegetable gardens to tend

to my hearts content.

Alas, since wanderlust should be my middle name,

that marriage eventually dissolved and I settled in a

beachront condo with nothing more than a screened

porch ull o potted plants to satisy my love aair

with dirt. It wasnt long ater marrying my present

husband a decision was reached. The condo was

sold; a boat was purchased; and a new liestyle

began; a liestyle which included nothing requiring

soil to survive.

Ater many years on the high seas Im now back in

suburbia. Brick ranch, spacious backyard and a

garden out o control. I had orgotten just how green

my thumb is. The corn towers over the entire garden.

I need a step stool to reach the top o the tomato

plants and the cucumbers have taken over both sides

o the ence separating my house rom the neighbors.

While Im proud all this bounty has sprung rom

Mother Earth with no chemicals or pesticides except

or a couple o bags o Brown Cow manure worked

into the soil beore I planted

and a spray bottle o

chamomile tea or controlling

mildew, enough is enough!

Im starting to take on a

reddish hue similar to how

one looks ater digesting too

many carrots rom all

the tomatoes Im

consuming. The reezer

is bursting at the seams

with beans, corn, squash

and okra. My husband is

begging me to no longer

eed him cucumbers. I

havent seen my

daughter in weeks. And

while August 8th might

be National Sneak

Some Zucchini on Your Neighbors Porch Day, thats

an everyday event in my neck o the woods.

But I must admit ater a 10 year hiatus rom my

hands in the dirt its nice to eel the warmth o the

soil and know I still have the magic touch.

There once was a beetle named Mark. Mark the Beetle they all called him! All except or Stephen

the Spider who, or no apparent reason, reerred to him as Tex. A ridiculous notion, especially when

one considers the act they were both rom Caliornia and barring being trapped in a car, bus or train

would probably never see any other state in their lietime. But, Stephen the Spider didnt care much

or convention and even less or titles, Tex is what he called our hero.

Mark the Beetle had a pretty good lie as ar as beetlekind goes. He chewed on good leaves. He avoided

the gaze o the birds. For un, he would drop himsel on top o some little girls hair and reak her out.

Hed cling to the occasional neck. And more than a ew times he tasted the nectar o the gods known

as Kool Aid. Some had it better. Many had it worse. Mark the Beetle was content.

One day came and, or some reason, the leaves didnt taste as resh. The girls just seemed silly. And

the nectar had turned sour. Mark the Beetle was missing something. And the terrible thing was: he

didnt know what that something was. He turned to his riend Jerry, the butterfy. Jerry the Butterfy

they all called him! Except or Stephen the Spider, o course, who called him Teddy.

Jerry the Butterfy, Mark the Beetle said. I need a change in my lie. I need something new; somethin

exciting. You got any ideas?

What you talkin change about, man? Jerry the Butterfy asked. You gots a good tree with lots a

crunchy leaves, man. Nobody bothers you. You gots plenty o lady beetles snin your pheromones,

man. This is the good lie, man. What more could you want?

I dont know, he answered, and stared out into the symmetrical yards o the subdivision that was his

universe. It just seems like theres got to be more to lie than just this tree. This yard. This house. Was

I put here just to eat leaves and die?

I you havent read the book The Help, I would highly recommend you pick it up. Beore the movie comes out next

month. Like, now. Ill wait

The movie is about the civil rights movement in Birmingham, Alabama, in the 60s. A college graduate wants to be a

journalist (okay, a little close to my heart), and is told to write about what disturbs her. She embarks on a mission to write

a book rom the perspective o the helpthe maid, nannies, and servants who serve within the homes o the

prominent white amilies o Alabama.

The best part o this book is that unknowingly, the protagonist alls into a cause that challenges her; she becomes truly involved

in the lives o these black women, and her perspective is orever changed because o one project she wanted to take on.

Take note: this column is not a book review. Yes, its a great book, and yes, I think you should read it. But theres something

a little.more.that I hope youll get out o it.

Grassroots movements are born o ordinary people who get fred up about something around them. It may start quite small

considering why you eat what you eat or asking why a certain law is the way it is. Over time, that interest leads to more education.That education leads to passion. Passion leads to discipleship, and more and more people jump on board to ollow that same path.

Soon, a movement is created, and before you know it, theworld begins to change.Martin Luther King, Jr. began as an ordinary man. He became extraordinary because he thought the world around him was wrong.

Jamie Oliver was just a cook. He grew into a world-renowned che. But his

passion or healthy eating has made him a landmark among the grassroots

movements that encourage organic ood choices, healthy school

lunches, and community change.

Susan B Anthony got fred up about the temperance

movement and abolition in the late 19th century. But

because, as a woman, she was not allowed to publicly

speak on these subjects, she became part o a not-so-

underground movement that would orever mark

human rights. Although she died in 1906, 14 years

beore women were given the right to vote, she is still

seen as one o the most important fgureheads in the

womens surage movement.

We are all ordinary until we make ourselves

extraordinary. What are you excited about? What

disturbs you? What do you want to see changed?

What are you waiting or?

Written words by Dire Straits and an absolutely

beautiful song. Somehow it just seems tting to think

of such words when looking at this image. Ever

wonder where it is that you are going? My grandma

would always tell me to never look back; always

move forward. Substitute forward movements forbackward thoughts. There could be adventures

and dreams you never imagined that are just

around the bend. I recently read a great quote. It

says Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of

the future, concentrate the mind on the present

moment. So... where do you think youre

going? My response is to not look back,

youre not going THAT way!

In the last 100 years, Arthur Murrays penchant or dance lessons has touched over 25 million people

worldwide. Imagine one boys dream to be less awkward turning into a passion that is still teaching this art

orm around the world today.

Back in the day - Eleanor Roosevelt, Barbara Hutton, Jack Dempsey, John D. Rockeeller Jr., the Vanderbilts

and my Granddad Johnson were all taught by Arthur Murray himsel. As you can see in the picture below,

my Granddad was in one o Arthurs rst classes sometime around 1916 at the Old Battery Park Hotel in

Asheville, NC.

I used to be amazed at how Granddad

could act like he could play the piano

and mandolin when I was a child. He

couldnt actually play, but he had this

knack o making you eel like he had

this graceul vaudevillian ability to sing,

dance and play any instrument. I can

imagine him hamming it up in Arthurs

dance class as a kid grinning his

charming way in and out o a waltz

or ox trot. Mom always claimed

that her Dad couldnt dance a lick,but there had to be a gene in there

somewhere since she taught dancing

at the Y back in her youth. There must

be some kind o inherited dancing

ability that was handed down through

Granddad and Mom.

I hang my hat on this notion o kismet. Thatkarma and ate have come together. The planets

are aligning next year and it will be the 100th

anniversary o Arthur Murray teaching the world

to dance

Maybe, I can dance?

I am learning to dance at the Arthur Murray Studio here in Greenville and on October 1st at 6pm in the Hyatt

ballroom downtown I will be dancing in ront o a whole bunch o people!

Thats right, I am one o the celebrity dancers in Dancing With The Carolina Stars. More on that later.

Getting out o the box every now and again is essential to living a ullling existence and I could not have

picked a more personally incredible stretch o reality than to think that I might be able to learn to dance and

do it in public!

Let me state or the record:

I am not, and never have been, mistaken for a dancer ever!

This is where Arthur Murray steps in the graceul orm o Starlina Lee. Starlina is, by all measure, amazing.

Not only is she an accomplished and award winning proessional dancer, choreographer and instructor who

has perormed all over she is also the ranchisee and general manager o the Greenville Arthur Murray

Studio. Add to the equation that she is charming, beautiul and unny well you get it. I could not be in better

hands!

I have been practicing, stretching, stepping and learning my routine (which is a big secret) or a number o

weeks now. Oh my, I had no idea how dicult this was going to be. I orget steps I just learned 2 days ago

and I cant seem to loosen up due to the knowledge that I dont know anything about dancing. However,

every time I go to see Starlina there is a brie and feeting moment that I eel like screaming I can dance!.

The moment quickly disappears, but what a real thrill these moments are to me. Starlina encourages me

every literal step o the way. She is really good at making me eel like I am starting to get this dancing bit.

Starlina tells me I am going to blow everyone away with my dance routine on October 1st. Kismet, ate andkarmacome on Granddad, lets hit the dance foor!

Dancing With The Carolina Stars is a undraiser or Senior Action.

Come see me dance along with other real celebrities on October 1st.

I promise it will be entertaining.

You can also vote or me by going to this link. Each vote costs $10 and

Senior Action would be extremely grateul i you voted early and oten!
