Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Day No. 1, Golden Gate Park, San Francisco, Sept. 29, 2023
- Rickie Lee Jones, Christone “Kingfish” Ingram, John Cragie, Peter Rowan and others highlight first day
Rickie Lee Jones opened the 2023 edition of Hardly Strictly Bluegrass - and christened the festival’s new, Horseshoe Hill stage - by reading from her 2021 memoir.
And Peter Rowan played country - not bluegrass - music during his late-afternoon set on the Banjo stage.
These were just two highlights from Day One at the long-running festival, which also included Christone “Kingfish” Ingram redefining the blues and John Craigie finding his quirky spot alongside Todd Snider in folk-Americana.
Seated on the small stage set up to resemble a living room and flanked with clothes drying on the line, an animated Jones embellished her reading from “Last Chance Texaco” with playful asides and wise cracks. She talked about how Laura Nyro made her feel connected and how Neil Young made her realize odd voices can be successful voices.
“I like it up here,” Jones said of being on stage. “I think artists sometime mistake the excitement for fear.”
Jones read about hitchhiking through California as a 14-year-old in 1969 as a foggy drizzle enveloped Golden Gate Park. She had soundchecked with a snippet of “The Horses,” but ended her well-received spoken-word gig by playing her father’s composition “The Moon is Made of Gold” solo and acoustic and earning a standing ovation from the small crowd seated in grass surrounded by tall trees.

Afterward, Mr. and Mrs. Sound Bites took in a couple of numbers from Vetiver - think the Byrds with a slide guitarist - on the Swan stage as the blog couple headed for Ingram, who played before an audience of thousands on the Towers of Gold stage.
Borrowing Stevie Ray Vaughan’s tone and adding equal measures of funk and R&B, Ingram and his band were super-charged during 50 minutes of electrifying blues as they continually tore the music down before building it right back up. The guitarist sang of lost love on “Fresh Out;” walked off stage, but kept playing out of sight, to showcase his band on “Not Gonna Lie;” and engaged powerful call-and-response with his keyboardist during the set, which ended as Craigie took to the adjacent Swan stage.
Tumblr media
Backed by electric bass and guitar and playing acoustic axe and harmonica, Craigie mixed humorous stage banter with tunes both playful (“I Wrote Mr. Tambourine Man”) and serious (“I am California”). Stage presence and song craft made fans of the Sound Biteses, who got their second dose of Craigie in as many days following the previous evening’s benefit for Camp Winnarainbow.
Tumblr media
Bluegrass legend Rowan was the biggest surprise of the day, turning in a country and blues set that found him alternating between electric guitar and mandolin, supported by guitar, bass, drums and fiddle. This was exhilarating, though low volume at the Banjo stage lessened the impact of the instrumental guitar duel of “T Bone Shuffle” and made “Panama Red” -> “Freight Train” -> “Panama Red” sound like they were coming in on the winds from Ocean Beach.
Small price to pay for the opportunity to hear Rowan perform such warhorses as “Lonesome L.A. Cowboy,” “Land of the Najavo” and “Midnight Moonlight” in novel musical settings in the bucolic landscape of Golden Gate Park.

Vetiver (in French, vetyver) is a fast-growing perennial grass from the Poaceae family of plants, which also includes lemongrass and citronella. It also can grow very tall! Vetiver also has a large, interlinked root system from which the essential oil of the plant (used widely in perfumery and incense production) is derived.
Vetiver is native to Southern India, Sri Lanka, and Indonesia, but today is widely cultivated in various countries around the world, including Reunion, Haiti, the Philippines, Japan, the Comoro Islands, West Africa and Polynesia.
► So...It’s just grass?
Tumblr media
No! Vetiver can not only produce small purple-brown blooms, but It’s also used in many different ways therapeutically. Vetiver is sometimes applied directly to the skin for relieving stress, as well as for emotional traumas and shock, lice, and repelling insects. It is also used for arthritis, stings, and burns. Vetiver is sometimes inhaled as aromatherapy for nervousness, insomnia, and joint and muscle pain. Vetiver oil has a very distinct woody/earthy smell, making it a must have for grounding techniques when using essential oils.
► So... What exactly do they look like?
Tumblr media
► Do they symbolize anything?
Tumblr media
It's said that the vetiver root symbolizes vitality.
► Tell me more!
Tumblr media
This grounding and earthy essential oil was a staple in the traditional medicine of ancient China. It was used as a treatment to soothe and replenish dry skin, balance the emotions, ease negativity and energize, calm and cool the body. Chinese physicians actually prescribed vetiver, which when used with meditation, was a means to restore “Yin” deficiencies, which were often associated with depression.

Vetiver
--prompt from @nosebleedclub (26 October)
Although the sky is the color of cornflowers, a gentle breeze rocks that field, and keeps me off balance as I walk the line between sufferance and indulgence awkwardly, like a newborn duck adjusting to land.
A zephyr tickles my inhibitions and teases my impulsive nature; it drops perfume oil on my awkward flesh, goosebumps rising, I refuse to understand how life cycles through its abnormal dance, always falling from grace.
Drops of vetiver oil fall onto my clavicles like acid rain from frothy clouds. I let it burn my skin and eliminate the remains of what others people applied on me like a canvas for a muse turned human with awkward hands and an imperfect smile. --Elda Mengisto

I got this candle at Target and it's another Thranduil scent. Vetiver is an essential oil with an earthy, woodsy smell. I wrote in one of my fics that Thrandy smelled like Vetiver. 😊

Libre Intense (eau de parfum) Libre Yves Saint Laurent
Floral amber
Libre: the new Intense Eau de Parfum by Yves Saint Laurent. The perfume of an intense woman living her roaring freedom and following her instincts.
Libre: the new Intense Eau De Parfum by Yves Saint Laurent. Libre, the French word for ‘free’, pays tribute to YSL’s most defining value: Freedom. The floral perfume of a strong, bold and free woman experiencing her freedom at its most empowered extreme. A statement women’s fragrance for those who lives by her own rules.
The iconic structure of Libre, a tension between French lavender and Moroccan orange blossom, reinterpreted in a suave and sensual way. The intensity of a melting floral core, where orange blossom flower absolute and blazing orchid accord fuse. Libre EDP offers spicy notes with slightly smoky facets.
The iconic Libre it-bottle reflects a tension between masculinity and femininity, like a straight geometric silhouette embedded in the smoking jacket. The couture extravagance of the oversized Cassandre bent & nailed into the glass, breaking all the codes. Libre Intense encapsulates a new fragrance shade, between fire and gold. An audaciously masculine signature twisted in its most feminine way by the desirability of the emblematic Libre bottle. A fragrance like a shout of freedom – the freedom to live everything with excess.
Top notes: Mandarin, Bergamot, Lavender Heart notes: Lavender, Sambac jasmine, Orchid, Orange blossom Base notes: Madagascar vanilla, Vetiver, Ambergris, Tonka

Target Jury Winning Spell (1)
The following Jury Winning Powder’s goals are self-explanatory:
Asafetida
Courtcase root[*]
High John the Conqueror
Dried hydrangea blossoms
Vetiver Root
Grind all ingredients into a fine powder. This is particularly difficult with High John, which is a harder root than most. Place an entire High John between folded wax paper and smash it into chips with a hammer, before attempting to grind and powder.
If you’d like to extend the powder further, blend it into arrowroot powder.
There are two methods of obtaining benefits from Jury Winning Powder: sprinkle it around the jury box so that the jurors will have to step on or over it, or cast a ring of powder around brown or purple candles and burn them at home.
[*Courtcase root refers to galangal.]

Lolita Lempicka Mon Premier Parfum - Lolita Lempicka
If you want to smell like a fairy princess, this is it. The star notes are (to me) cherry, licorice, and violet. I would die for violet, especially this one. I think it’s usually described as a floral gourmand, but I don’t think gourmand quite fits. It’s more reminiscent of the sort of delicious-looking, sugared-violet-topped confection you might see at a fairy feast in the middle of the forest. You can look, but you know eating it would be bad (as tempting as it is).
Brand: Lolita Lempicka
Nose: Annick Menardo
Top notes: cherry, star anise, ivy
Middle notes: licorice, violet, orris, amaryllis
Base notes: praline, vanilla, tonka bean, musk, vetiver
Sillage: moderate
Longevity: long-lasting
