Fane of the Cosmos

FANE…BE HEAR NOW…THE SCARY REALITY OF THE TERM COP A FEEL…POLICE ABUSE SEARCH POWERS

I speak about my experience at Starbelly, a great family oriented festival that takes place in Crawford Bay every year. Kicking it to Phish and Farmhouse. I start off the show with a great Celtic Tale from the bard Robin Williamson. I relate a story from the Valley Voice, a local newspaper, about the harrowing tale of a young girl in spandex shorts and the sexual assault she experienced at the hands of local police…looking for a concealed weapon. It was summer...she had a tank top on and shorts. I go off about the way officers abuse their powers for the sexual degradation of women. This adds a nasty ring to the saying “Cop a feel”. After that encounter we lay down an Immortal Technique tune. Another Starbelly Report and then I play some live cuts from the Starbelly Festival…Harry Manx and Holy Fuck. Then into a cut from the Womens Visionary Conference from two women who are medical cannabis users. A song for Brandy from Dave Van Ronk…Tale of the Wandering Angus. Love it. More from the conference and then into Marleys Turn Your Lights Down Low. I would like the thank all the people who make this show possible, Natural Alchemy, Paul D (who helps with these podcasts!), Alan M, the volunteers at KCR, Terry, the freaks and the sponsor of the show.
