From OTRAnnounce at overtherhine.com Thu Oct 20 18:47:49 2005 From: OTRAnnounce at overtherhine.com (Announcement list for the band Over The Rhine) Date: Thu, 20 Oct 2005 18:47:49 EDT Subject: [OTR Announce] Goodbye To A Friend and More Message-ID: <212.c02151c.30897895@aol.com> Hello from Nowhere Farm, A Stray Dog's Life is Good Enough For Me? Today is Friday, October 7, 2005. There's a different kind of chill in the air today. It's a gray day, breezy, and wet through and through with gentle rain. Change is afoot. The grass is green. The grass loves this cooler weather. The leaves of the maples are starting to turn now in earnest. The golden rod isn't quite as brilliant as it was a few weeks ago, when it sugar-buzzed with pollen-drenched, disbelieving bees. Our garden looks like a fall garden - the zucchini and cucumber vines and sweet corn long dried up, a few ripe tomatoes and peppers still hiding here and there, butternut squash lying conspicuously about. I picked the last few, ripe watermelon yesterday. They're not as big as some of the 35 pounders we hauled out earlier, but they feel and sound ripe. So we'll sit on the porch swing some evening soon and see what we've got. That was a childhood memory I enjoyed reliving - bringing in a heaping wheelbarrow full of ripe watermelon. My father tells me there is no food so good as the food grown in your own garden. But soon the frost will come, and the cycle of life will turn once again. The ground will lie fallow for awhile. Rest. We'll hunker down for our first winter on Nowhere Farm. For a long while, we knew another day would come eventually. And it did. I wrote the following to a few family members and close friends Tuesday morning: Goodbye to a Friend? Hey all, I wanted to let you know that Karin and I got back from taping a radio show Sunday night to discover that Willow was failing. She had stayed overnight with a friend who she loves while we were gone, but had a rough time. We ran some tests yesterday, and she has issues with her stomach and lungs and kidneys. She had lost most of her hearing in the last 4-6 weeks. Seems like the light is fading from her body. She's unable to eat anything except for a little broth, and she can't seem to even keep that down. She's very weak, but still has a spark in her eye. Miraculously, Willow surprised us at 10am this morning and got herself up, gulped down some water and looked at us as if to say, Let's go. We all (Karin, Willow, Elroy and I) had a nice walk on the farm. For 15 minutes, she shook off her troubles and got lost in what she loved. When it was over, she lay down, and it soon became even more clear that she was dying. In a final act of kindness, we're going to take her into Cincinnati this afternoon and say goodbye, spare her the hours or days of further suffering. It was almost 10 years ago to the day that she came into our lives, and we can't imagine the last decade without her. I still remember the Fall day 10 years ago that Karin and I drove into the country to meet with a Weimaraner breeder. She interviewed us for hours and let us see her dogs and talked about what would happen if we bought one of her dogs -- it would have to be co-owned, and "finished" -- made into a bench champion etc. We couldn't afford any of it, and were wondering, how would we do all this and make our music? But the woman warmed to Karin and finally said, You know if you're just looking for a companion, a neighbor of mine just picked up a beautiful Weimaraner that was running on the highway. She's been posting signs, and taking out ads to see if anyone claims her. If nobody does, you might be able to help out with giving her a home. She's a great dog, but she's been on the run for awhile... A week later, this amazing, athletic hunting dog was in Karin's apartment. I can't begin to describe the joy this development brought. From the moment we laid eyes on her, we couldn't help but grin at her intelligence, energy and just the stunningly beautiful way she was put together. Her past, prior to the day she found us, remained a complete mystery. Yesterday, Karin was waiting at the vet's office with Willow while he did an emergency C-section on another dog. A woman walked into the waiting room and said to Karin, Do you remember me? Ten years later there she was -- the breeder who had connected us with Willow. It was one of her Weimaraners that was being operated on and she brought out one of the little puppies with its eyes still closed -- the cycle of life and death right there in the room. It was almost like God saying, I gave you this animal, and I'm still here. It's ok. A friend said that dogs awake to their last day with gladness in their hearts. We had always prayed that we wouldn't get a call somewhere on the road informing us that Willow was gone. We wanted to be able to say goodbye. This is what the answer to that prayer looks and feels like. Lots of tears, lots of joy. Love from Ohio, Linford & Karin We knew the day would come and it did. I had never seen an animal put to sleep. A few friends stopped by beforehand to say goodbye, and of course Robert, the man who became like a brother to us by visiting the Grey Ghost and taking Willow to the park and walking her and playing with her every single day that we were away on tour in the last decade. (With the exception of the few adventures/near disasters when we took Willow along with us.) We realized that Robert had never once turned us down - never said, I can't make it, there's a foot of snow on the ground, I'm too sick, or that weekend won't work for me. Not once in ten years. When Robert walked into the room in those last moments of her life, Willow struggled to her feet one last time to give him the props he so deserved. A few friends shedding tears with us? Tears of joy and sadness - they come from the same place. Everyone said goodbye. Then it was just Karin and I and Willow and the vet that had patched her up from time to time. (We used to joke that there was a different scar for every year that we'd known her.) She was completely relaxed. Her body was tired from holding it all together for us. Earlier we had both spoken with her at length. Karin held her as we drove the hour from the farm into the city. When I told her she was going to lie down and go to sleep and go chase some squirrels, she looked at me with gratitude and relief. And in a few seconds she was gone. When I saw her at complete rest like that I knew we had done the right thing. Her work here was done. Ten years ago, when Karin realized that she had a powerful hunting dog on her hands, she decided communication was of the essence, so she took Willow to puppy school and worked with her on the basic commands - Sit, stay, lie down, OFF! (a general command meaning, Back away, don't eat that) heel, etc. Willow was a quick study, but the command that was used to let her know she was free from obligation was ?Release.? Karin whispered that to Willow repeatedly in her final hours. That's the command that Karin has been using as we try to let go now. Release. There are some who would argue that a dog's life is insignificant. But God so often chooses to use insignificant things in significant ways. In the grand scheme, we're all insignificant until love shows up. She was a spark for us, and life is a bit dim right now without her. What am I mourning? I'm mourning the end of the special connection I saw between the woman I love and her very first dog. I'm mourning the fact that I'm getting older. Ten years ago, when Willow arrived, we had no idea what to expect. It was the start of a new adventure. Now we look back at another chapter of our lives that has ended. Willow was good for us. She helped us have a semblance of a routine. It was contagious to watch how she insisted on doing what she was born to do. We write these songs because we want to feel things deeply and listen well to our lives. So in times of loss, maybe we feel a bit more than we wish we did, and this makes it exceptionally painful. We know the day will come when we'll look back with only gratitude and fondness for the ten years we woke up together. I guess no one notices the moment a dog becomes part of the family. She was a true kindred spirit somehow. Good Dog. *** Road Trips, Rose Hips and More? You all have been good to us again this year. So many memorable nights of music and good vibes? We had an unforgettable evening down by the river at Coney Island's Moonlight Gardens in late August. Soon after, we drove to the Northeast, visited some of America's great cities. Those of you who attended the concerts wrapped your arms around us with welcome. Thanks for all the good memories and after dark gifts. It occurred to me that you thought we were deep and it turns out we're not deep. All we do is write simple, slightly off-kilter love songs and gather a few people together and sing about love. We're not that deep. Songs about simply wanting to love well those closest to us. Songs about wanting to love those people that have hurt us, and those we've hurt. Songs about wanting to love what we cannot name, what we have yet to see. Songs about being in love with the reckless beauty of the sky, the lay of the land, the grin of a child. Songs about failing to love more deeply, about being partially blind to what we want to see more clearly. Songs in which we wonder out loud if we're in love with God, or simply in love with all our unanswered questions. On clear nights when we have friends visiting we have a little game we play. We walk toward the barn and gather under a pole in the yard that has more or less the equivalent of a street light on it, a light which silvers the blades of grass and makes the maple trees glow in the dark. We tell everyone to look up, and we count to three slowly, very slowly, and then flick the light off and the entire farm is bathed in black. The stars swim instantly into precise focus. And it seldom fails to take our breath away. And it looks like a vandal took a pitchfork and just pricked the daylights out of the membrane sky. Dark, dark, dark? But then do you have days, certain days, when you know you've been given so much, probably much more than you deserve, more vast good than you're even aware of, and yet you can't muster up the strength to kick the melancholy out of the house? What is that about? Those days when we can't access our joy. Voices in our heads telling us lie after lie after lie. --We're failures. --We're mediocre. --We're lousy friends. --We're lousy partners. --We're wasting our lives. --We're alone out here on this fuckin', ramshackle, ragged, broke down, heartbreakingly beautiful farm, and it's all a pile of crap. I think of these thrown days as emotional tantrums where I commit every significant sin in the space of a few hours - the sin of ingratitude, the sin of wanting it all, the sin of not loving myself and therefore finding myself incapable of loving anything or anyone. Have you heard about this Japanese scientist who tapes labels to jars of water? The water with the encouraging, affirming labels (you are beautiful, I love you) makes lovely molecular snowflake-like crystals, the water with the bad labels (I hate you, I wanna kill you) turns snaky brown. Our own bodies are something like 90% water. What are we doing to ourselves with our own thinking? We need to try to be good to ourselves and each other. Fall back? If you squint your eyes at the distance, you can almost see the end of a year looming. So we're heading back out, finding the slow curve of headlights on the highway, lost at sea, happy together, on the verge. Hope you can come along for the ride.

Recent reviews of Drunkard's Prayer: NO DEPRESSION (USA) "...slow burn ambience, enchanting melodies, languid tempos; themes of affirmation in the face of travail. Bergquist's voice -- subtly emotive, with just a hint of earthy midwestern drawl -- is the perfect instrument." THE SUNDAY TIMES: 4 Stars (UK) "...intensely personal songs examine the tricky subject of staying together. Bergquist's voice is so strong... Stunning." UNCUT (UK) "...feels much like a renewal of vows. The vocals of Karin Bergquist add a rich sophistication to piano-led chamber ballads and jazz-inflected folk." PASTE MAGAZINE (USA) "...emotive, soaring, bittersweet, this is the soundtrack to an evening at home with your oldest friends..." ALL MUSIC GUIDE (USA) "Over the Rhine bring things back to the heart on Drunkard's Prayer. ...tender, poetic, gracious, deeply moving. Songs like "Hush Now," "I Want You to be My Love," and "Bluer" are fine and varied illustrations where folk, rock and American roots music caress and kiss." M2 (New Zealand) "With upright bass, piano, acoustic guitars, horns, a few subtle textures plus one amazing voice, Over the Rhine's new songs are often stunningly simple, but always fearless. One of the top albums of the year!" Thanks again for your support. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

This Christmas tour, we'll once again be encouraging people to consider sponsoring a child (through World Vision) in Africa in areas that have been hit particularly hard by AIDS. For us in the West, it's the monthly equivalent of 2 cd's. For an impoverished child, $30 a month can mean food, clean water, shelter and an education. We had a goal last year of getting 200 kids sponsored, and we got 85! A good start. This year, we'd like to reach our goal. #1) We need two volunteers to help with the World Vision table at each concert. If you'd like to help out, please e-mail our tour manager Brandon Dawson: Brandon at overtherhine.com In the subject heading, please put your city and World Vision in all caps, example: AKRON, WORLD VISION. Include your name and contact info in the e-mail. We'll give you a free ticket to the show and let you know what time to arrive so that we can show you the ropes. #2) If you're coming to the concert, please give this some thought in advance and consider making this tour significant in ways that go far beyond the music. If you're not able to attend the tour this year, but would like to help us reach our goal of getting 200 kids sponsored, please e-mail Linford a note at OTRhine at aol.com. Linford will respond and and then put someone at World Vision in touch with you. Thanks for your consideration during this special time of the year.
