Festival Express
Festival Express is a 2003 documentary film about the 1970 train tour of the same name across Canada taken by some of North America's most popular rock bands, including The Grateful Dead, Janis Joplin, The Band and Delaney & Bonnie & Friends. The film combines live footage shot during the 1970 concerts, as well as footage aboard the train itself, interspersed with present-day interviews with tour participants sharing their often humorous recollections of the events
The Delines - Colfax
The name “The Delines” came to Willy in a dream. He claims we were playing a nice venue somewhere and it was written across the kick drum. The idea for the band itself came long before on a tour with Richmond Fontaine. Amy was singing the female roles from the High Country and Post to Wire, originally sung by her sister Deborah. Backstage Amy would sing soul and opera numbers to warm up and get her mind off the psycho logger tunes and a-holes she was locked in a van with. Some of the soul singing must have found its way into Willy's consciousness however and upon returning home he penned several songs he hoped Amy would sing. Willy sneaked over to John's studio and whipped out some demos to share with Amy and Sean. They dug em! Amy chose her keys and Tucker came over to work out parts in the basement. We called Freddy in to lay down the bass and Jenny to play rhodes and organ. Finally we got Amy up from Austin and after some quality time in the basement hit the studio. Collin put down a little cello and John some baritone guitar. Crow sent us up backing vocals that Amy and Deb had done down in Austin. John mixed them all up nice here in Portland and voilà “Colfax” was born. We are planning to release May 2014 on Decor and El Cortez Records.

Kathy. Ack. (When Kathy Met Cathy)
---
Kathy Acker (1947-1997) was an experimental writer whose works include Blood and Guts in High School, Don Quixote: Which Was a Dream, Empire of the Senseless, and In Memoriam to Identity. Steeped in philosophy and literary theory, informed by Acker's life (her mother's suicide, her experiences as a sex worker, etc.), and with an irreverent glee for dismantling and re-imagining the Western canon, Acker's novels, poetry, and essays engage with questions of identity, authorship, politics, sexuality, and violence.

Cathy Guisewite (1950- ) is a cartoonist known for the widely-syndicated and long-running comic strip Cathy. These strips have been collected in dozens of volumes, including Wake Me Up When I'm a Size 5, Revelations from a 45-Pound Purse, and Abs of Steel, Buns of Cinnamon. The titular Cathy is said to be based on Guisewite's own experiences as a single woman; the character's exploits revolve around work, family, romance, and her complicated relationship with food and her body.
