I present to you: Sherlock Holmes in Drag. Inspired by a clip I once saw in a Johnlock compilation and it caught me very off guard (in a positive way). He was absolutely BEAUTIFUL! Also this was drawn during pride month so I guess that’s an additional slay.

If she were a drag queen…what do you think her stage name would be?

THROWBACK TO SUMMER VIBES IN 2011 -- THE "SUMMER IS FOREVER" TOUR/LINEUP.

PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on a promotional concert poster design for lo-fi/indie/surf rock bands BEST COAST, WAVVES, & NO JOY, performing live at the Granada Theater in Wilmington, CA (L.A.) on the 24th of January 2011.

Unfortunately enough, I dont own any WAVVES on hard copy, but I've been a huge BC fan for years now, and I own pretty much everything they've ever released on CD format. Love them to bits!

Lost Chicago Building 6 - The Granada Theater

By Roger Jones, August 2023

The Granada at night

I only saw a movie at the Granada Theater once, in the late 1970s; I believe the offering was Murder by Death. Nonetheless, I always marveled at the movie palace's facade every time the el train passed the Loyola stop on Chicago's north side.

Historical details:

Opened: Tuesday, September 21, 1926

Status: Closed/Demolished Sunday, September 30, 1990

Style: Spanish Baroque

Seats: 3,443

The Granada Theater was a 3,400–seat movie palace located at 6427-41 North Sheridan Road, in the Rogers Park neighborhood of Chicago and adjacent to Loyola University. Constructed in 1926 for the Marks Brothers, major theatre operators in the U.S., Edward E. Eichenbaum was the principal designer for the architectural firm of Levy & Klein. Eichenbaum also designed the Marbro, Regal, and Century theaters in Chicago.

The Marks Brothers operated the theatre until 1934, when Balaban and Katz purchased the property. That firm and its successors—United Paramount Theatres, ABC Great States Theatres and Plitt Theatres—operated the facility until approximately 1978. From then until the mid-eighties, it was used sporadically for rock concerts and presented midnight showings of The Rocky Horror Picture Show for several years.

Despite all attempts to save the theater, Senior Life Styles Corporation purchased the property and demolished it in 1989-90 for a planned apartment/commercial structure.

The new 16–story apartment tower and shopping arcade constructed in 1991 was named "Granada Center.”  Loyola University eventually purchased the structure and transformed it into 12 floors of student apartments over a base containing parking, retail and university offices.

Thanks to Cinema Treasures for the following details:

Built in 1926 for the Marks Brothers circuit, this was one of the largest movie palaces on Chicago’s Far North Side, located in Rogers Park. The Granada Theatre was opened September 18, 1926 with a Jack Haskell stage show “Eastern Nights” and on the screen Belle Bennett in “The Lilly”. The Wurlitzer 4 manual 20 rank theatre organ was opened by organist Alfred F. Brown The proscenium was 60ft wide and the stage 32ft deep. Seating was provided for 3,448, with 1,833 in the orchestra level and 1,615 seats in the balcony.

On November 18, 1932, the theatre was acquired by the Publix/Balaban & Katz chain and it was briefly closed, reopening on July 29, 1933 with John Barrymore in “Reunion In Vienna” & Laurel & Hardy in “Me and My Pal”. The Granada Theatre was originally designed by Edward Eichenbaum (of the firm of Levy & Klein) for both live stage shows and movies, but by the 1940’s, was only showing films. On November 19, 1975 the World Premiere of Jack Nicholson in “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest” was held at the Granada Theatre, with Jack Nicholson & Louise Fletcher appearing ‘in person’. It remained open as a movie theatre, operated by Plitt Theatres until the late-1970’s.

Information from the HABS Report on the Granada:

The report goes on to say that the primary reasons for the Granada’s historic significance include:

its size, as it was one of the three largest movie theatres ever built in Chicago, the other two being the Uptown and the Chicago theatres; its elaborate design, often cited as the most ornate in the city; its place as the flagship of the Marks Brothers empire, who were second only to Balaban and Katz in the construction and operation of opulent movie palaces; and its association with architect Edward Eichenbaum.

Perhaps the most heartbreaking element of the HABS report is one of its closing statements: “The Granada had survived in essentially unaltered condition until the past two years (1988-89), when it was left unattended and the weather and vandalism were allowed to proceed unchecked.” This was a demolition that could have been avoided.

The HABS report included several dozen photos of the interior and exterior of the Granada Theatre, taken shortly before demolition. While it is depressing to see the damage the theatre suffered in its final two years, especially during a time when movie palaces across the country were being renovated to the benefit of communities large and small, these photos do show in great detail the artistry of Edward Eichenbaum.

In addition:

...the Granada was still in remarkably good shape as recently as 1987. While it was allowed to deteriorate after that, eyewitnesses to the demolition mourn the fact that there was little wrong with the theatre structurally, that it could, in fact, have been saved.

Despite efforts to landmark the theatre or get it reopened, the Granada’s fate was sealed. Much of the terra cotta of the facade was stripped and sold off, as were many of the interior decorative elements. One of the large chandeliers from the lobby was salvaged and now hangs in the Riviera Theatre. Another, smaller, chandelier hangs in the Music Box on Southport.

I don't ramble nearly as much as I'd like to on this blog (yay anxiety), but there are some things i really just want to ramble about on here

outside of art, one of my greatest non-fandom interests is just,, 20th century Chicago history? and,, it feels odd, to mourn the loss of a building, but that has happened now

I'm not American myself, but whenever I go over there, I can't help but notice the architecture that is lost to history - in Chicago, bigger buildings such as the Hotel Sherman or Theater Granada

Those buildings were so pretty! so much time went into designing them and constructing them, all the hours of work and toil done by real, living, breathing people, and,, they've been demolished or otherwise lost to time.

It's not only about the aesthetics or history of these buildings for me, but it's about the countless hours of human skill and time put into them. These buildings did not just appear, there were people behind them, architects and construction workers and artists and--

and their work just... gone. Lord knows how many collective hours of human time, lost.

It's a similar feeling with museums - looking at art exhibitions, it's... a very humbling experience to realize the sheer amount of time collected in a single exhibition? Everything takes time, but architecture and art collections especially are such a vivid example of so much effort and sweat and time and love all collected in one place. Those who have been around my blog for a little while may have read my ramble about Kråkevisa a while back - and it's almost the exact same idea there too. Folk songs that are built on and worked on for generations are such a testament to the innate human need to create, and there's so much time put into them, it makes me feel wonderfully small compared to the sheer size of collective human artistry.

We may be small compared to the world, but in places like this - buildings, museums, songs, collaborative efforts, anything we share, anything other people take inspiration from - what is on its own the work of one, tiny human can become so big.

I guess today is just one of those days where I'm feeling sappy in this bog again. We're small creatures leading small lives, but our small efforts of time and devotion to our craft can become such a great, massive thing to all the countless other small beings we share, have shared, and will share life with.

I do not know where this post went, i was just going to cry a bit about the Theater Granada, but ADHD be like that--

So happy about this review, and thankful to all the amazing musicians that brought this piece to life last weekend in Santa Barbara!

Review Daniel Kepl / VOICE Santa Barbara, CA 1/27/2023

“Miguel del Águila’s Concerto for Violin and Orchestra, Op. 94, El viaje de una vida - The Journey of a Lifetime (2007), is a stunningly accessible if beastly difficult recent entrant in the violin concerto sweepstakes. Its four movements – Crossing the Ocean to a New World, In the Purple Land, The Return, and Finale - the violin soloist accepting the musical mantle of immigrant protagonist throughout the work, contemplate the gauntlet of physical as well as psychological challenges all travelers face when leaving their homeland for a foreign land and culture.

De Águila himself a living witness to the immigrant struggle, having traveled from his native Uraguay to the United States (where he received his American citizenship) as a young man, then to Europe for a period of years and back again to America in 1992, has created a score as sweeping as the oceans, actual and allegorical, that separate whole continents and peoples.

Puerto Rican violinist/conductor Guillermo Figueroa, who premiered del Águila’s concerto in 2007 and has been performing it around the world ever since, was the featured soloist last weekend in Santa Barbara, approaching its virtuoso musical cautionary tales with the sublime self-confidence of one who owns the work – every note of it…

The Secret of Sherlock Holmes play with Jeremy Brett & Edward Hardwicke, 1988/1989

audio bootleg on SoundCloud, restored by Alison Carter (Act 1) (Act 2)

the play script (x) (x)

the program (x)

info about cast, crew, tour dates, pictures, etc. on The Arthur Conan Doyle Encyclopedia (x)

fan site with lots of links (x)

Finding out that this play existed was one of the best days ever. I can't believe this is a thing that actually happened, I literally think about it daily, what a cool thing. This one is up at the top of my time machine list (the one where I discover time travel and only use it to go see shows and concerts in the past) ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Just thinking about Jeremy Brett's voice (as Holmes !) booming across a theater that I am sitting in gives me chills.

I know I'm not the first person to post about this play, but if even one Granada Holmes fan sees this post and gets to discover this play, I think that would be pretty neat.

DELAIN Announces 2025 North American Tour With XANDRIA

Melodic synth-metal greats DELAIN continue to grace stages around the world in support of their latest opus, "Dark Waters", out now via Napalm Records. The band is thrilled to announce their return to North American shores with a newly announced headline tour, set to take place in early 2025. The run will also feature support from special guests, symphonic metal patriots and Napalm labelmates XANDRIA, who are touring in support of their latest album, "The Wonders Still Awaiting".

Fans should expect to hear DELAIN and XANDRIA fan favorites, the latest hits, as well as brand new material from both bands during this tour, so don't miss out. Kicking off on March 7 in Phoenix, Arizona, the tour will visit several major cities across North America, ending in Austin, Texas on March 29. Tickets are on sale now. Visit www.delain.nl and get yours before they are gone.

DELAIN's Martijn Westerholt says: "After such a warm welcome and meeting so many amazing fans, performing new music and introducing our new members to the metal masses of North America last year, we are absolutely stoked to return to the United States and Canada to meet again. This time, we're thrilled to share this experience with our special guests and good friends XANDRIA. Each night will be stunning for all. Don't miss this one!"

XANDRIA's Marco Heubaum adds: "We are delighted to come back to the USA and Canada, and even better, with our good friends DELAIN! We are super excited to bring this package to the North American fans! This is going to be amazing!"

DELAIN with support from XANDRIA:

March 07 - Phoenix, AZ @ The Nile March 08 - Los Angeles, CA @ Whisky A Go Go March 09 - Sacramento, CA @ Goldfield Trading Post March 10 - Portland, OR @ The Bossanova Ballroom March 11 - Seattle, WA @ El Corazon March 13 - Salt Lake City, UT @ Metro Music Hall March 14 - Denver, CO @ The Oriental Theater March 16 - Joliet, IL @ The Forge March 17 - Detroit, MI @ The Token Lounge March 19 - Columbus, OH @ The King of Clubs March 20 - Toronto, ON @ Axis March 21 - Montreal, QC @ Fairmount Theatre March 22 - Cambridge, MA @ Middle East March 23 - New York, NY @ The Gramercy Theatre March 24 - Baltimore, MD @ Soundstage March 25 - Jacksonville, NC @ Hooligans March 26 - Atlanta, GA @ Masquerade (Hell) March 28 - Dallas, TX @ Granada Theater March 29 - Austin, TX @ Come and Take It Live

In a recent interview with FaceCulture, DELAIN founder, songwriter and keyboardist Martijn Westerholt spoke about the differences in the singing approach of the band's new frontwoman Diana Leah and that of her predecessor, Charlotte Wessels. He said: "Well, first of all, [Diana's] voice. I like her character. [She has] so much control, so much control… It's also a very friendly voice. And [when I first heard her singing], I could imagine that on DELAIN music. And then I got back the material later, and I was actually astonished and surprised how much it fitted. [Someone said] she has a very similar voice to Charlotte, and partially I totally agree with that; there are some characteristics that are similar. But I also think that people didn't… We have released three singles [with Diana so far], and [people] have not heard her complete capacity in singing. She's very good with soft versus power, [the] contrast [between the two]."

Elaborating on what sets the two vocalists apart, Martijn said: "Charlotte is more rough, which gives Charlotte a lot of character. It's a more rough voice, and that's not a negative thing; no, on the contrary, that gives it a certain quality and character. Diana is more refined. And that makes it different. So I'm totally not saying that, 'Oh, this one is better' or 'That one is better' — no — but it is different. And, of course, indeed, there are also similarities."

DELAIN's first album with Leah, "Dark Waters", arrived in February 2023 via Napalm Records.

In addition to Westerholt and Leah, the band's current lineup includes original guitarist Ronald Landa and drummer Sander Zoer, along with bassist Ludovico Cioffi.

The new DELAIN lineup made its official live debut in August 2022 at the Riverside festival in Aarburg, Switzerland.

Regarding how she joined the long-running Dutch metal act, Leah previously said: "It's really simple, actually. I knew they were looking for a singer so I just left a comment on their Instagram page. So a couple of days later I received an e-mail from Martijn, and we talked a bit about how I could audition and he sent me some material that I could sing on. And the rest is history."

Asked how she decided to sing in a metal band, the 33-year-old Diana said: "Well, I've always wanted to sing in a metal band. It was really my desire to do it. In fact, I did sing in a couple of rock bands, but it wasn't really heavy music, which I loved at the time. It was really hard to find the right people to form a band with and also to get along together and all that. But I've always wanted to be in a metal band. Always."

Leah also talked a bit about her background, saying: "I was born in Romania, in a city called Alba Iulia. It's in the middle of Transylvania. And then I moved to Italy when I was 15, and I lived in Italy for, I think, 10 years or something. And then I moved to Canada, in Ottawa, and I lived there for five years. And then I came back to Italy. And now I currently live in Italy, near Torino, so up north."

In February 2021, Westerholt announced the dissolution of DELAIN's previous lineup. At the time, he explained: "For the last year or so, the collaboration within the band ceased to work as well as it once had. Some of us were no longer happy with the current roles in the band. We all tried very hard to find a solution for over a year, but sadly we were unable to find one. As a result, we will all be going our own ways and pursuing our own endeavors."

I am LOSING MY DAMN MIND over Jeremy Brett over here. I wanted to wait with the next post about Granada Holmes because I still want to sift through all the reactions to the first two (there is stuff to read! there are things to reblog! there are messages to answer! there are people to follow! i have to make some time for that tomorrow) but genuinely, WHAT THE HELL.

His acting is so precise and deliberate, the passion, the intensity, oh my God. When I first read that he was a theater person, it made perfect sense to me; it did not surprise me in the least. @the-moon-loves-the-sea said it like this under my other post: “You can SO hear the stage acting training. He’s using it [his voice] like an instrument.“ And that is absolutely right! He does!!!

There are moments in the episodes that I genuinely want to cry over, they are so good.

I also read a bit about his life and it made me quite emotional. I have to make a seperate post about it but it gives me this heavy feeling in my stomach. I think it is safe to say that he did not have an easy life, and I wish it would have lasted longer.

I also got kind of emotional when I read that he was bisexual. Like, as a queer person myself... this absolutely brilliant man is family. I wish I could have met him.

Granada Theatre: Mezzanine stairs during demolition, October 1989

[dreaminginthedeepsouth]

Federico Garcia Lorca

On August 18, 1936, the great Spanish poet was shot under an olive tree, in Granada at 4:45 am.

+

Speech by Federico Garcia Lorca at the inauguration of the library of his town: Fuente de Vaqueros (Granada). September 1931.

Half a loaf of bread and a book

"When someone goes to the theater, to a concert or to a party of any kind, if the party is to his liking, he immediately remembers and regrets that the people he wants are not there." 'What my sister, my father, would like this,' he thinks, and no longer enjoys the show but through a mild melancholy. This is the melancholy that I feel, not for the people of my house, which would be small and bad, but for all creatures that for lack of means and for their misfortune do not enjoy the supreme good of beauty which is life and is goodness and is serenity and it is passion. That's why I never own a book, because I gift how many I buy, which are infinite, and that's why I'm here honored and pleased to inaugurate this people's library, the first surely in the whole province of Granada.

Man doesn't only live on bread. I, if I was hungry and disabled on the street, I would not ask for a bread; but I would ask for half a loaf and a book. And I attack from here violently those who only talk about economic claims without ever naming the cultural claims which is what the peoples ask for screamingly. It's good for all men to eat, but for all men to know. Let them enjoy all the fruits of the human spirit because otherwise is to make them Civil service machines, is to make them slaves to a terrible social organization.

I have much more shame for a man who wants to know and can't, than for a hungry man. For a hungry man can easily quench his hunger with a loaf of bread or some fruit, but a man who is eager to know and has no means, suffers terrible agony because it is books, books, many books that he needs and where are those books?

Books ! Books ! Make here a magic word equivalent to saying: 'love, love', and that peoples should ask as they ask for bread or as they long for rain for their seedlings. When insignificant Russian writer Fedor Dostoyevsky, father of the Russian Revolution much more than Lenin, he was imprisoned in Siberia, far from the world, between four walls and surrounded by desolate infinite snow plains; and he called for help in a letter to his distant family, he only said: 'Send me books, books, many.' books so my soul does not die! '. I was cold and did not ask for fire, I was terribly thirsty and did not ask water: I asked for books, that is, horizons, that is, stairs to climb the summit of the spirit and heart. Because the physical, biological, natural agony of a body by hunger, thirst or cold, lasts little, very little, but the agony of the unsatisfied soul lasts a lifetime.

The great Menéndez Pidal, one of Europe's most true wise men, has already said that the motto of the Republic should be: 'Culture'. Culture because only through it can be solved the problems in which the people are debated today full of faith, but lacking light. "

In the picture reading to his sister Isabel Garcia.
