Butterfield Garage September Artist of the Month Printmaker Debra Mixon Holliday
2018-09-09 11:00 - 17:00, 2018-09-08 11:00 - 17:00, 2018-09-07 18:00 - 21:00 (America/New_York) | Butterfield Garage Art Gallery, 137 King Street, St. Augustine FL, 32084
An Artist Talk, First Friday September 7th at 6pm. is an opportunity to meet the artist hear the behind-the-scenes view of her elaborate printmaking processes.
Debra is a life-long resident of Florida and grew up along the central Gulf coast of the state. As a child, she had free reign to wander her grandparents’ farm and ranch there. Those wanderings began a foundation of watching and observing the flora and fauna of the Gulf Coast and Southeast that now influence her art.
To create images, she looks to the small stories and the special-ness of the creatures and the environments they rely on. Plying woods, backwaters, and even her own backyard, she raids a treasure chest of line, color, pattern, and form. A variety of printmaking techniques, including monotype, relief, collagraph, and intaglio, are employed to bring images to life. Her mixed media work is enhanced with collage and drawing in graphite and colored pencil.

MC50 presents Kick Out The Jams- The 50th Anniversary Tour
2018-09-06 19:40 (America/Halifax)
Celebrating the 50th anniversary of the release of the pivotal MC5 album “Kick Out the Jams” punk supergroup MC50 (featuring Wayne Kramer of MC5, Kim Thayil of Soundgarden, Brendan Canty of Fugazi, Dug Pinnick of King’s X and Marcus Durant of Zen Guerilla) will perform the album in its entirety plus additional MC5 material live from the Backyard Stage at the St. Augustine Amphitheatre on Thursday, September 6!
Tickets on sale this Friday, April 6 at 10am
Tickets:
$35.00 – Advance Purchase General Admission Standing
$40.00 – Day of Show Purchase General Admission Standing
Gates Open 6:30pm / Show Start 7:40pm
Wayne Kramer, leader of Detroit’s proto-punk/hard rock band MC5, announced 35 North American dates for “Kick Out the Jams: The 50th Anniversary Tour.” Touring with the MC50 – which includes guitarist Kim Thayil (of Soundgarden), drummer Brendan Canty (of Fugazi), bassist Dug Pinnick (of King’s X), and frontman Marcus Durant (of Zen Guerilla) – Kramer will be celebrating the landmark anniversary of the MC5’s incendiary debut album Kick Out the Jams and the release of his memoir The Hard Stuff: Dope, Crime, the MC5, and My Life of Impossibilities, to be published August 14th by Da Capo Press.
The North American tour begins in early September with a September 6th performance at the St. Augustine Amphitheatre Backyard Stage and culminates with an October 27th concert back where it all began: in Detroit in 1968, where Kick Out the Jams – recently cited by Pitchfork as one of the 50 best albums of the 1960s – was recorded live in front of a raucous home town audience at the Grande Ballroom on Halloween night. On the MC50 tour, Kramer and the band will play the album Kick Out the Jams in its entirety followed by an encore of MC5 material that will change each night.
As Kramer explains, “This band will rip your head off. It’s real, raw, sweaty, total energy rock and roll, like a bunch of 40 to 70-year-old punks on a meth power trip.” Super Fan Pre-Show Experience Pre Sale starts Wednesday, April 4th at 10AM local time. Details are available at http://www.cidentertainment.com/events/mc50th-anniversary-tour-2018.
Kick Out the Jams is recognized as the galvanizing live document that introduced a major voice of late ’60s counterculture and proved incomparably influential on metal, punk, stoner rock and almost every other form of loud, limitless, long-haired music to come. The recording took place just months after the band’s appearance at Chicago’s riotous 1968 Democratic National Convention — a pivotal moment in modern American politics.
Says Kramer of revisiting Kick Out the Jams, “Today, there is a corrupt regime in power, an endless war thousands of miles away, and uncontrollable violence wracking our country. It’s becoming less and less clear if we’re talking about 1968 or 2018. I’m now compelled to share this music I created with my brothers 50 years ago. My goal is that the audience leaves these concerts fueled by the positive and unifying power of rock music.”

After serving a federal prison term, he released 10 solo albums and was named by Rolling Stone as one of the top 100 guitarists of all time.
