In December 1976, the English fanzine Sideburns published a now-famous illustration of three chords, captioned "This is a chord, this is another, this is a third. According to Holmstrom, punk rock was "rock and roll by people who didn't have very many skills as musicians but still felt the need to express themselves through music". Musical virtuosity was often looked on with suspicion. In the early days of punk rock, this DIY ethic stood in marked contrast to what those in the scene regarded as the ostentatious musical effects and technological demands of many mainstream rock bands. ![]() Pub rock bands organized their own small venue tours and put out small pressings of their records. Pub rock also introduced the idea of independent record labels, such as Stiff Records, which put out basic, low-cost records. UK pub rock from 1972 to 1975 contributed to the emergence of punk rock by developing a network of small venues, such as pubs, where non-mainstream bands could play. Technical accessibility and a do it yourself (DIY) spirit are prized in punk rock.

Many musicians identifying with or inspired by punk went on to pursue other musical directions, giving rise to movements such as post-punk, new wave, and alternative rock. Crass) became the predominant modes of punk rock. By the early 1980s, faster and more aggressive subgenres such as hardcore punk (e.g. In the late 1970s, punk experienced a second wave when new acts that were not active during its formative years adopted the style. It took root in a wide range of local scenes that often rejected affiliation with the mainstream. In 1977, the influence of the music and subculture spread worldwide. ![]() It led to a punk subculture expressing youthful rebellion through distinctive styles of clothing, such as deliberately offensive T-shirts, leather jackets, studded or spiked bands and jewellery, safety pins, and bondage and S&M clothes. ![]() ![]() By late 1976, punk became a major cultural phenomenon in the UK. When the movement now bearing the name developed from 1974 to 1976, prominent acts included Television, Patti Smith, and the Ramones in New York City the Saints in Brisbane and the Sex Pistols, the Clash, and the Damned in London, and the Buzzcocks in Manchester. Glam rock in the UK and the New York Dolls from New York have also been cited as key influences. Certain late 1960s and early 1970s Detroit acts, such as MC5 and Iggy and the Stooges, and other bands from elsewhere created out-of-the-mainstream music that became highly influential on what was to come. The term "punk rock" was previously used by American rock critics in the early 1970s to describe the mid-1960s garage bands. Punk embraces a DIY ethic many bands self-produce recordings and distribute them through independent record labels. They typically produced short, fast-paced songs with hard-edged melodies and singing styles, stripped-down instrumentation, and often shouted political, anti-establishment lyrics. Rooted in 1960s garage rock, punk bands rejected the perceived excesses of mainstream 1970s rock music. Punk rock (also known as simply punk) is a music genre that emerged in the mid-1970s.

This article charts the story of the Witches and their journey to the Olympic final, noting the legacy the gold medal victory had for the growth of sport for women in Japan. The volleyball final, played on the evening of 23 October, a day before the closing ceremony, remains one of the highest rated broadcasts in Japanese television history, and was a victory that, for the Japanese people, epitomised the success of Tokyo 1964.

Abstract: At the 1964 Tokyo Olympics the Japanese women’s volleyball team, nicknamed the ‘Witches of the Orient’, defeated the Soviet Union to win the gold medal. Sigma claims it can supply LG Energy’s needs for at least six years from a plant in Brazil. That’s a Canadian lithium supplier whose stock has quadrupled this year. Or dial up your broker and buy Sigma Lithium (NASDAQ: SGML). If you believe in Lucid, look toward the December spin-off of its battery supplier as LG Energy Solutions. Many are going with the same supplier, LG Chem, which has had difficulties, and whose stock is down as a result. Lucid is lined up alongside every other car maker in seeking batteries to power its assembly lines. ![]() There’s a certain “yadda yadda” in the positive chatter about Lucid Motors. “One major reason why LFP batteries are not seen much outside of China relates to a series of key LFP patents, which have allowed the country to dominate the LFP market,” wrote Aria Alamalhodaei, “But those patents will soon be expiring, and it seems that Tesla has its eye on that timeframe.” That could enable Musk’s battery manufacturing to be done nearer to its car assembly lines. Lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) batteries use an older, cheaper battery chemistry and are popular in China. Pay attention to recent moves by Tesla to use iron-based batteries for its models. My InvestorPlace colleague Tezcan Gecgil has a piece today that offers an investment strategy on QuantumScape (NASDAQ: QS), which is working on developing energy-dense solid-state batteries with high driving range and fast charging times. It’s whether there are going to be enough batteries to supply this demand. It’s not the assembly lines, not the design, not the orders. Yet battery production bottlenecks are now seen as the key roadblock to electric vehicle production. None of the five catalysts our Samuel O’Brient found recently for the stock’s rise involve proof of battery production and supply. Meanwhile, Lucid Air stock is up 21% since the start of September, mainly on the strength of its reviews. But a shortage of batteries could be a bigger problem for car makers than the chip shortage. Rawlinson is glossing over what could be a major problem. Those with gray in their hair remember the Democrats’ 1992 slogan, “It’s the economy, stupid.” With electric cars, it’s the batteries, stupid. The shares have since recovered just half the losses. Shares of LG Chem lost a quarter of their value in August after problems were found at two of its Asian plants. General Motors (NYSE: GM) blames LG Chem for a $1 billion recall of its Chevy Bolt. LG Chem is already supplying other car makers. ![]() If the Korean company can deliver, Lucid can meet its ambitious 2023 production target of nearly 1,000 cars per week.īut that’s not going to be easy. Lucid is depending on LG Chem for its batteries. His battery “Gigafactory” in Nevada is the key to his whole operation. ![]() You don’t get anywhere without scaled production of batteries. Most of an electric’s moving parts can be hidden in the wheel wells. Electric motors have one moving part, which is attached to the driveshaft. In theory, electric cars are very simple. Musk heeded the warnings, solved the problems, and rode Tesla to glory. The company also told investors Monday that it has more than 17,000 reservations for its Air sedan, up from 13,000 through the third quarter.Now that Lucid is starting to make its luxury Lucid Air sedan, and getting great reviews, it must scale that production. Rawlinson confirmed that production target on Monday but cautioned the "target is not without risk" due to an ongoing global disruption in automotive supply chains. Lucid told investors in July that it expects to produce 20,000 Lucid Air sedans in 2022, generating more than $2.2 billion in revenue. It reported a net loss of $1.5 billion through the first nine months of the year, including a $524.4 million loss in the third quarter. The automaker's revenue in the third quarter was $232,000, largely from a battery deal with the Formula E electric racing league. The young company isn't yet profitable and is still in the early days of generating revenue. It also has thus far avoided any federal probes into potentially misleading statements to investors, unlike others such as Nikola, Lordstown Motors and Canoo. ![]() But unlike some of its SPAC peers, Lucid is actually generating revenue and producing vehicles. Lucid is among a handful of EV start-up companies to go public through deals with a so-called SPAC since last year. ![]() Icon - Zoom Out Used to indicate a zoom out action on a map.

When you create the Multiple Record layout, you only place boilerplate and placeholders on the layout once. I find it helpful to create guides to help me figure out how to position the 4-up layout. This is an imaginary examination certificate which will be printed 4-up on a page. Now let’s show you an example of a Multiple Record layout. As you can see in the illustration below, there was no overset text, and seven pages was generated in my simple example. Finally, it generates a new document containing the records you selected. For a large data merge, this can take quite a while. InDesign starts thinking about what to do. (I prefer to presize my images to exact size ahead of time by running an action on the images in Photoshop.) You can also remove blank lines for empty fields or set a maximum number of records in a document. Here you have choices for how to fit images in your graphic placeholder frames. You also want to click on the Options tab. We’ll show you a Multiple Record layout next.) There are also options to generate a report if text gets overset in the process, or to generate an alert when images are missing. ![]() (Remember, from our first posting, that a record is the complete set of fields that extend across the row of data. That is, it creates exactly one physical page for each record in the merged document. The layout we’re creating is a Single Record. (This choice has tripped many people up.) But equally important, you need to choose the number of records per document page. The most important panel?Records?is where you select which records you want to include in your merged document. This opens a three-tabbed-panel dialog box. Click the Create Merged Document button (circled above), or choose Create Merged Document from the palette menu. Now, it’s time to create the new data merge document. I selected the data source and linked the data fields with the placeholder frames. When I left you, I had created a reminder card layout in InDesign CS2, and created text and graphic frame placeholders. You’ll find part 1 here, and part 2 here. It’s been much longer than I expected finishing this three-part tutorial on InDesign’s Data Merge feature, but it’s been a very busy period for me. ![]() It was so casually done that the audience had to look twice to make sure that it really was her. Joan and her band the Blackhearts nonchalantly walked out on the stage and manned their instruments. Security had told me that there would be no press pictures for her set so I stayed in my seat until Jett’s set was finishing up where I could then join the other members of the press. Tesla performing “Heaven’s Trail (No Way Out)” live at Budweiser Stage in Toronto, Ontario, Canada on July 4, 2018: Tesla - Heaven’s Trail (no way out) live Toronto July 4th 2018 ![]() I found Tesla’s set to be perfect entertainment for an early part of a show and despite the odd billing of bands on this tour, Tesla ended up fitting like a glove.Ġ5. Would Styx and Joan Jett fans appreciate a band like Tesla 30 years ago? Probably not but on this night they were greeted by a loud cheering audience, many of whom were still arriving and finding their seats. Lead vocalist Jeff Keith’s loud and strong raspy vocals have also really stood the test of time as he hasn’t lost a bit of his range or power. ![]() Tesla looked and sounded great, as though it were 1990 all over again. So Tesla must be doing something right by being on the same bill with legends such as Styx. So many bands of this genre can no longer keep it together due to substance abuse, egos or a lack of income potential. Once we arrived at our seats, we managed to see the last half of Tesla’s set. The lawn could have handled an additional 7,500 people. With a seating capacity of 9,000 however, I’d say this concert had close to that number. So, this Styx/Joan Jett/Tesla show was nowhere near being sold out as later on during the concert, I still saw some spotty areas of empty chairs in the 400’s. Security thrust a free ticket in her hand in the 400’s for a seat right beside hers. “What about my friend who was going to join me from the 200’s section?” she asked. Rita was told by security that she was automatically being ‘upgraded’ to the 400’s section. My friend Rita had bought a lawn ticket online so she and I could sit together as my seat was in the 200’s section but would allow me to go to the lawn area. On this show however, the lawn area tickets were being sold. The promoters for an amphitheater also have the option of selling open lawn tickets or not. Styx are now definitely in this category. So long as the seated area looks full, then the turnout looks fantastic which is great for bands that can no longer fill an arena of 18,000 people on their own. Amphitheater tours are great for this as they always have a seated area and then an open lawn area where they can sell more tickets at a lower price. The next thing that was interesting to me is how promoters will try to make a show look full when it doesn’t sell that well. Between going back and forth between security guards explaining myself and checking my Canon SDLR camera with the security booth, I ended up missing half of Tesla’s set. “I have a press pass too!” Tesla was just starting at this point and I was told I had to leave my camera with the security booth where I could retrieve it later and that the press was already in front of the stage taking pictures of Tesla. “But I’m the press!” I proudly exclaimed. As my friend Rita and I approached the security staff, they spotted my camera and told me I was not allowed inside with it. They did not however, give me the actual press pass sticker which turned out to be a headache for me. Given that this was my first time being ‘the press’ at a rock show, I approached the ticket booth where the staff quickly handed me my ticket after explaining I had a press pass. I was reviewing this concert because Sleaze Roxx editor Olivier could not make it that night so asked if I could attend via a press pass. In 2018 however, it works, partly due to a lack of touring rock acts and partly a nostalgia overload that fans like myself lap up. ![]() There is no way in hell that we would have seen Styx headlining the Kilroy tour with Joan Jett opening up for them in 1983 - it just wouldn’t have worked, let alone sold well. With these two being an odd enough pairing, they also give us Tesla as the opener who are lumped in with 1980s ‘hair metal’. As rock continues to dwindle here in North America, I find it odd when promoters pair off certain bands together on the same tour such as Styx being an advanced songwriting prog-rock giant in the ’70s and early ’80s, and Joan Jett being a product of the early glam rock and punk infusion with a dose of 1950s influence. I had completely forgotten that Styx was coming to town with double-header Joan Jett and the Blackhearts with Tesla as an opener.
