+
+Hey everybody! In this episode I’ll be interviewing Chuck Wrenn. Chuck Wrenn is
+someone who had a heavy involvement in the Richmond music scene from the first
+psychedelic dance in VA, all the way up to High on the Hog. He’s lived in
+Richmond his whole life and has been part of some crazy scenes. I love Chuck.
+I’ve known Chuck since I was born and he helped raise me, so this is a very
+special interview to me. The music used is an improvised piece by Peter Lyon
+Huff that he recorded in my basement for this interview.
+
+----
+
+**Chuck Wrenn**
+
+Alright man, whatcha got in mind?
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+You were telling me earlier that you used to explore abandoned buildings in
+Richmond. Did you ever have an encounter with the police?
+
+
+**Chuck Wrenn**
+
+My closest experience with old buildings and police was when there was an empty
+building downtown -- not all the way downtown, but I guess around first street
+I'd say. Foushees. It was a vacant building that had a stained glass window in
+the side of it. And me and my brother and law at the time said, "I'd really like
+to get that stained glass window, and I said "alright, we can go get that." We
+took our tools, just hand tools to go in and pry that window out. While we were
+in there working on the window, somebody called the cops. So the cops showed up
+at the place. There was no way out. We couldn't get out. And the cops were
+heading in the house, so he and I opened up the door and got behind the door up
+against the wall and the cops came in with flashlights and looked all around and
+walked out the room. We were right behind the damn open door up against the
+wall. Boy that was one helluva a night.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+Yeah, what else happened that night?
+
+
+**Chuck Wrenn**
+
+Just waited for the cops to leave. If they had a dog, we would've been shit.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+When was the first show you organized?
+
+
+**Chuck Wrenn**
+
+The first big one... I started out doing that stuff in highschool. I had friends
+in bands and I'd put on a show and advertise it around school and a couple
+hundred people would come and we'd rent a place to put on a show. The first
+really big one I did -- there used to be a ballroom called Tantilla Ballroom, it
+was down on Broad St. It has a really long, great history. It was considered to
+be the major ballroom in the South, it's torn down now. Me & a couple of buddies
+rented this ballroom and put on the first psychedelic dance in the state of VA.
+We rented a bunch of equipment to put the show on. We rented so much equipment
+-- we sold the show out -- and rented so much equipment we lost money on it.
+That was a big one. Gosh, since then, there's been countless shows. Up to "High
+on the Hog." Now, I wasn't the only guy that did the "High on the Hog."
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+Tell me about Woodstock. Did you have any role in organizing it?
+
+
+**Chuck Wrenn**
+
+I didn't have anything to do with putting it on, but before that there was a
+festival called Atlantic City Pop. A buddy of mine had a leather good store. And
+he was gonna go out in a booth and sell the stuff that he'd made. It was a great
+time. Saw a lot of great bands. We were just up there running his booth. But
+while I was up there, I noticed a lot of people wearing tie-dye shirts and
+people were selling them. Came back to Richmond and said, "we can do this at
+Woodstock." So my wife and I and a couple of friends started tie-dying t-shirts
+at our apartment. We tie-dyed a shit ton of them. We'd go out and buy big cases
+of white Hane's t-shirts and come home and have a couple of pots on the stove.
+And my wife and I (we were the only people that went up to Woodstock). We loaded
+up all the t-shirts and went up to Woodstock. We got up there Thursday before
+they closed the interstate and got within a mile from the stage. Fairly close at
+the time. People were just coming in and parking on the side of the road, so if
+you were there you weren't going anywhere. There wasn't no way you'd be getting
+out. So we set up our little tie-dye shirt thing. I had some pipe and we opened
+the doors and duct-taped the pipe and started hanging up the t-shirts. So we're
+selling t-shirts up there. I had a big cooler of beer with me. It was going
+great. Then people started coming by and a guy came by and said, "I'd really
+like to get this shirt, but I don't have any money. Would you take some hash for
+it?" I said, "yeah sure." So we're doing that. Now other people would come by,
+"I don't have any mother either, but I like the shirt. Would you swap for some
+acid?" And next thing I know, we've got pot, hash, acid -- along with the
+t-shirts. So I set a sheet over the hood of the car and I started putting out
+the stuff with prices that we'd swapped for. So now we're selling tie-dyed
+t-shirts, pot, LSD. Hehehe! We never got to the stage until Sunday. We got there
+on Thursday. But it was such a crazy scene. And then people were going "I'm
+drinking this beer." I said "you got anmyore of that beer, you wanna sell some?"
+They said, "okay!". So now I'm selling beer. Just crazy. Crazy shit.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+How'd you get to know Bruce Springsteen?
+
+
+**Chuck Wrenn**
+
+Well, Bruce started coming to town -- first time I saw Bruce and his band was in
+Monroe park and they came down and played free. No one had heard of them. They
+were just kids from New Jersey. They came down in a beat-up old truck and
+equipment and set up in Monroe park and played. I knew they were gonna be a big
+deal, because even as kids -- I guess Bruce was like 18 -- and they were good
+from the start. First time I ever saw them, I said "man, these guys are gonna be
+_something_." And they were one of the first bands, maybe the first band, I ever
+heard that mic'd all the amps through the PA. So instead of just having the amps
+and playing at that volume, they put mics in front of the amps and put them into
+the PA so you get this huge sound. They'd come to Richmond and they didn't have
+a lot of places to play. They had Asbury park in NJ. Richmond got to be one of
+the places that were real popular from them. They'd come down every month or
+two, I guess, and play. I got to be friends with 'em and did a lot of posters
+for the band and that kind of stuff -- just liked 'em. Bruce never stayed at my
+house, but most of the band did. And at that time, my wife, my wife at that time
+would make up a big spaghetti dinner and feed the band and they'd sleep on the
+floor. We did that for a while. They got to where they didn't need to sleep on
+my floor anymore. Ahehehe! Bruce used to come to my apartment and eat dinner and
+stuff, but Bruce always pretty-much stayed to himself. He was not a party guy at
+all. Didn't drink, didn't take any drugs, didn't smoke pot. The rest of the guys
+were pretty much rollin', they were a rock 'n roll band.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+Speaking of pot, didn't you have a club called "The Health Club"?
+
+
+**Chuck Wrenn**
+
+Yeah! Heh, T-H-C. It wasn't anything official, it was just some guys, friends of
+mine. At that time we were into 10-speed bikes and we'd go out to the park early
+in the morning and ride laps. We had another group called "The Bothers". Our
+motto was "we do both". I drew a t-shirt that had a joint and a bottle of beer
+walking down the street arm-and-arm. The beer was holding a joint, and the joint
+was drinking holding a beer. The bothers, "we do both." All those apartments
+around "Harrison St" and "Park Ave" were where a lot of kids lived. It was a
+real social thing. You'd come over and knock on someone's door, "hey what's
+happening?" smoke a joint. Everyone was just hanging out. Listening to records
+and all that kind of stuff.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+Tell me about your drug experiences?
+
+
+**Chuck Wrenn**
+
+Taken -- well, not every drug, but I've taken a lot of drugs. Not for any length
+of time. Just for the experience.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+Are there any trips you remember distinctly?
+
+
+**Chuck Wrenn**
+
+One experience -- I used to live on the corner of Harrison St and Grove Ave.
+There was a 3-story building that burnt down, not there anymore. But I had an
+apartment on the third floor; and I had taken some LS-- acid. Across the street
+there was a laundromat that had a soft drink dispensing machine. I had decided
+that I would like to have a Coke. Came downstairs, stood on the sidewalk. There
+was a stoplight. I was waitinga nd nhe light would change and I'd step off a
+couple of steps and the light would change back and I'd walk back. I could never
+get across the street! Ended up just going back to my apartment. It was just
+crazy shit like that. Funny stuff. It was all in good fun. Not anything at the
+time about. Just everybody laughing.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+Where did the laughter go?
+
+
+**Chuck Wrenn**
+
+That's what I'm wondering!
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+What time was this?
+
+**Chuck Wrenn**
+
+That was the late '60s. Then it got to a point where cocaine came on the scene,
+and that was a whole different thing. That was awful.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+The '80s?
+
+
+**Chuck Wrenn**
+
+Yeah, that would've been the disco time.
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+Cocaine and disco."
+
+
+**Chuck Wrenn**
+
+Not any fun. Neither one of them.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+When did you buy your house in Church Hill?
+
+
+**Chuck Wrenn**
+
+I bought that house with my first wife in 1975. I was there 45 years and Hollie
+was there with me for 25.
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+You bought it when the area was completly different.
+
+
+**Chuck Wrenn**
+
+Trashed. Real dangerous to be up there. It was not a developed place like it is
+today at all.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+Not a place to raise children.
+
+
+**Chuck Wrenn**
+
+Nah, I mean _dangerous_. I got shot twice when I was living up there. It was not
+a good neighborhood. Most of the houses were just flop houses, crack houses.
+When I bought my house, the upstairs of the house was uninhabitable, the
+downstairs had pad-locks on every door and a heater in the middle and
+mattresses. I took 15 mattresses out of that place when I bought it. Our
+parents thought we were nuts to buy that house, that we were gonna be killed.
+You walked in Libby park and there were just syringes and wine bottles and
+liquor bottles laying around the trees. You couldn't go out at night.
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+Speaking of which, you have two bullets in your body from being shot.
+
+
+**Chuck Wrenn**
+
+Yep, I told him that. I was in a robbery. I wasn't robbing, but I was being
+robbed and ended up getting shot twice. Once in the side here, and once in my
+but over here. I was obviously running. The guy shot me in the back.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+This was at your workshop, right?
+
+
+**Chuck Wrenn**
+
+Yeah, I had a workshop that I rented with another guy. It was up on 33rd and
+Marshall. I've been half-shot lots of times, but when you get really *shot*. It
+burns. It's just hot. It's like someone hit you really hard with a paddle.
+That's what it feels like. But it didn't do any real damage. I was in the
+hospital five days. It wasn't anything life-threatening.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+There was a certain story I heard about you in Church Hill regarding your dog.
+Tell the story, Chuck.
+
+
+**Chuck Wrenn**
+
+This was my first dog with my first wife, Mira, the dancer. We lived on Franklin
+St. We had separated, so it was just me and the dog on Franlkin St and my wife
+moved into another place. I was working in the restaurant business, as usual.
+The dog was really old, and I had put a sheet and some plastic down in the
+downstairs room. The dog was incontenent. Put the food bowl down. It was warm in
+the summer, had a window fan in there for the dog. And I came back from work one
+night and the dog had eaten dinner then laid down in front of the fan and died.
+It was just there. So I was thinking, "what am I gonna do?" I wrapped the dog up
+in the sheet and said, "I'll just have to deal with it in the morning." I went
+upstairs and I couldn't sleep. I just couldn't sleep like that. I came back down
+and put the dog in my van and got a shovel and put on my boots and went over to
+the Libby Park overlook, which is where we used to always walk. And I dug a
+significant grave for the dog at the overlook. There was a cop up there named
+Mongo. Mongo was his name. He was a really good guy and friend of everybody on
+Church Hill. Everybody knew him. It was back when the police had a beat. His
+beat was our neighborhood. He'd go by and stop and help people take groceries in
+the house and he was a good friend. So he pulled up and wanted to know what I
+was doing. The dog was still wrapped up in the sheet in the truck and I'm
+digging this grave.
+
+He says, "what's going on?"
+
+I told him tearfully and sentimentally, "my old dog died and I'm burying him. I
+know I shouldn't be doing it [here], but this is a special place."
+
+He said, "I'll let you go do that, no problem, but first I need to look at the
+dog."
+
+I opened up the truck and showed him the dog and pulled the blanket back and he
+said, "go ahead."
+
+I finished burying the dog and all that and the night was over. But it was
+pretty damn funny. "I don't know what you're doing, but I need to look at the
+dog."
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+Make sure it's not a person.
+
+
+**Chuck Wrenn**
+
+Make sure it's not my wife! Yeah, that was pretty funny. Well it is now, but it
+was rough then.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+Alright thanks for listening. In the next episode I'll be interviewing Gen Ken
+Montgomery who ran the Generator Sound Art gallery in NYC.

+----
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+In this episode I'll be interviewing the head of the ISKON of Virginia, Sriman
+Dasa. ISKON stands for International Society for Krishna Consciousness, which is
+the organization that leads the Hare Krishna movement. I've known Sriman since
+the summer of '22 when I started organizing shows at the heavily-affiliated
+Govinda restaurant directly across from the ISKON temple.
+
+---
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+When was the ISKON of VA founded?
+
+
+**Sriman Dasa**
+
+That was done in 2016.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+So rather recent.
+
+
+**Sriman Dasa**
+
+Recently. Real ISKON was set up in 1966 actually.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+I read that, isn't there a temple in West VA?
+
+
+**Sriman Dasa**
+
+Yes, many major city have temples and especially in WV there is a big temple
+with 200 acres of land. That was built in the 1970s.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+Is it still active?
+
+
+**Sriman Dasa**
+
+Yes, very active, and they have a guest house and many people visit all the time
+and stay there overnight. Very enjoyable. They have cows. They found some oil in
+the land. Lot of visitors. They were suffering one time financially, but now
+they have no problem.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+You're a religious leader, right?
+
+
+**Sriman Dasa**
+
+Yes, I am president of this organization here. ISKON of Virginia.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+What led you to this position?
+
+
+**Sriman Dasa**
+
+That was because for many years I had been practicing. Being from India, born
+and grew up. In India it's very common for Hindus to go to temple and become
+servant of G-d. There are many paths in India. When I came here [in 1970, there
+were no other temples beside ISKON. When I went first to Chicago I found a Hare
+Krishna temple and went there. Then I moved to Atlanta, and there was also a
+Hare Krishna temple there and I started going there. From there I moved to
+Baltimore and DC -- all those places. Slowly I started going. In those days,
+those were the only temples we had. Now we have many temples. I met different
+Hindu religion priests and many other people, but by then I was convinced that
+Hare Krishna was the proper way of philosophy presented about Krishna. That's
+why I continued.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+How is Hare Krishna different from the religion you grew up practicing?
+
+
+**Sriman Dasa**
+
+Other religions that I was aware of in India believe all the demig-ds as well
+as Krishna are on the same level. They do not have a differentiation. They were
+not openly pointing out what the goal of life should be. In Hare Krishna, they
+say Krishna is supreme ... of G-dhead and that the goal of the life should be to
+develop love for Krishna. There are many demig-ds people in India follow and
+they are representative of G-d-law. It's just like president of the govt.
+Secretary is in a different department. If you serve the secretary, you may get
+some benefits, but if know the president you can get around anything.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+Have you ever seen visions of Krishna?
+
+
+**Sriman Dasa**
+
+I haven't seen the G-d yet, but I look back my life and over the life I've been
+materially much better and spiritually making progress which gives me comfort in
+my life. Even though I'm 80 years old, at this age, I'm a happy person. Better
+than all my 80 years behind. Normally people when they get old, they have less
+happy days. Disease, not happy with the children, not happy with the govt, they
+don't have enough money to survive. But in my case, I enjoy every moment of it.
+It looks like G-d is praising me and giving me what I want.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+You said you first came here from India to Chicago. What were you doing for a
+living?
+
+
+**Sriman Dasa**
+
+I came from India as a student and went to University of Tennessee and did my
+masters degree. At that time I was struggling a bit financially. I didn't have
+money when I came from India. But luckily within 3 months I got permission to
+work within the university; then I never had problems financially. Then I did my
+masters and started working a little bit part-time.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+Didn't you say you got a PhD?
+
+
+**Sriman Dasa**
+
+No, I did not finish it. I did the coursework and when I was supposed to do a
+dissertation I decided to move forward and work in the outside.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+What were you during your PhD in?
+
+
+**Sriman Dasa**
+
+It was a NASA-related project, laser technologies and optical technology and
+searching for meteor trails falling from the sky. I was doing some mathematical
+model research. It was an interesting project. But I was successful to proving
+my master thesis. My advisor was very happy. He came one day when I finished and
+lifted up the paper and said, "you made my life."
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+How'd you transition from that to becoming a religious leader?
+
+
+**Sriman Dasa**
+
+Oh really this was developing on the side, just like my regular job as an
+engineer continued there and there, different companies. And religiously went to
+this temple that temple. In the beginning not too much into it, but more and
+more I got involved. But slowly I got into the service more and started cleaning
+pots and pans and mopping the floor and praying and those things developed as I
+continued with it.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+But how'd you stop being an engineer?
+
+
+**Sriman Dasa**
+
+I did not stop, I just wanted to balance out work and life and slowly I decided
+sooner or later I should quit the job and go on my own business so I have more
+freedom. So I only worked in America as an engineer for 14 years of my life.
+After I quit I started my own real estate business and then had more time. Do
+whatever I want, just go to temple. So it worked out really good, good
+combination.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+Aren't you a landlord now?
+
+
+**Sriman Dasa**
+
+Yes, yes. Means I got rid of most of my property. Live more simple life. More
+I'm more concentrating here (the temple) & my sadhyna. Everyday I have to put
+spice at least 4 times in the sadhnya. Go out and feed the homeless people.
+People whoever come we offer them, we preach, we discuss.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+What does it mean to be Krishna of Consciousness?
+
+
+**Sriman Dasa**
+
+Krishna Consciousness means we all have a consciousness thinking what we think
+inside. Somebody have a consciousness for his family, somebody has a
+consciousness for his nation, somebody has a consciousness for himself, and
+Krishna consciousness means we think about Krishna, a supersoul inside. We are
+the soul, we are part of it. Clearly which is given in the Bhagavad Gita we try
+to develop in our consciousness so that we more become apart of it. If you say
+"I'm American" -- then as soon as you say "I'm American" you feel that you're
+part of America. Even if you're born in Africa and you live in America,
+naturally your consciousness is in Africa. This is only one aspect of
+consciousness. So Krishna Consciousness is trying to relate yourself as a
+servant of Krishna.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+Does the religion believe in free will?
+
+
+**Sriman Dasa**
+
+Oh yeah, that's why we are here. We have a free will. That was the main
+fundamental situation we had that's why we wind up in this material world.
+Otherwise we live in a spritual world, with Krishna, serving Him. Take a family
+for example, you have four children. Krishna is your father. One guy say I'm
+going to Africa, one guy say I'm going to New York, and father is in Richmond.
+Time goes by, nobody wants to come and say "hello" to his father and they've
+forgotton. One guy who was living in New York he keeps in touch with the
+Richmond father & mother and once a while, weekend comes by, he says "how can I
+help you?" So he becomes a loving child. The other guys are not getting too much
+health. And the father says, "let them". That's a free will example. We have
+forgotten our relation with our father. We have decided to go away from him.
+That's why we have ended up in this material world. We think we are happy, but
+no, if we go to our father we will be much happier. Like when the New York guy
+goes to his father in Richmond. Father is happy, mother is happy, they take care
+of each other. And that is our duty as Krishna of Consciousness, to go back to
+home and become servant of Krishna.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+We're in the age of Kali Yuga which means the furthest from Krishna, right?
+
+
+**Sriman Dasa**
+
+Not furthest, we are in the material world, but Kali Yuga is such a situation
+that is forgetfulness and mind is not intelligent. Two days back you probably
+can't remember what you ate. That's why this formula that is given, Hare Krishna
+mantra, is very powerful. It has a spiritual vibration, and when you sing that
+mantra, the mantra connects you directly to Krishna. It penetrates this planet
+and goes to the spiritual plane and to Krishna -- that powerful. When we call
+our cellular phone to Africa, that is what's happening. Spatial frequency takes
+you to Africa. Same day when you chant Hare Krishna, it has a spatial frequency
+that connects you to Krishna.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+What does the mantra mean in English?
+
+
+**Sriman Dasa**
+
+It's a prayer.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+There is no translation?
+
+
+**Sriman Dasa**
+
+Maybe not, but you can say it's a quick prayer. That's it? Thank you for coming.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+Yep, thanks for agreeing to this.

+The following is an interview with sound artist Stephen Vitiello who currently
+serves as Chair of Kinetic Imaging at VCUarts where he's been for two decades.
+His breakthrough work as a sound artist was a residency he did recording sounds
+of and from the 91st floor of the World Trade Center in 1999, which he later used for his
+album "Bright and Dusty Things", ~~now having a permanently altered meaning.~~
+
+First off, what is sound art?
+
+
+**Stephen Vitello**
+
+It's funny, I laugh nervously because I don't have a perfect answer. Many years
+ago I came up with a response, and so many people jumped on it being wrong. At
+that time I associated sound art too closely with installation, but it can be
+radio, it can be stereo, it can be any number of things. I tend to think of it
+is starting conceptually somewhere in between visual art and music. Often
+presented in art spaces -- but almost anything I say can be argued.
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+Do we need the term "sound art"?
+
+
+**Stephen Vitello**
+
+It's so tricky because it's mostly academics who want definitions... and
+funders. Anytime you get into labels like "minimalism", most of the major
+minimalists hate that term. I can't say I love the label, but I don't hate it.
+It's helped me get opportunities and gallery shows and commissions and
+collaborations, so I don't know of a better term.
+
+I see whatever sound art is, has roots in many places: experimental music,
+conceptual art, visual art. There's many ways to look at it. And different
+people come to it from different places. Some from literature, some from poetry,
+some from architecture. Where
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+How'd you get into sound art?
+
+
+**Stephen Vitello**
+
+There was a time I knew chords and I wrote songs, choruses, in 5/4 time that
+jumped to 5/8. I've lost all of that. It doesn't mean I've lost everything, it
+just means I've shifted what my skillset is.
+
+I played in bands for a long time. And I'd try to play like punk rock guitar or
+post-punk. It wasn't until I heard Fred Frith's guitar solos and his use of
+motors and vibrators and putting little clips on the string and bowing that I
+realized, "oh, there is another way."
+
+I discovered a 60 minute CD-R by John Hudak, who made these long quiet pieces.
+He made a piece called "Pond" using hydrophones. I just loved the sound of it,
+but also this really long piece that you live with.
+
+I reached out to him because I was living in NYC and he lived in Brooklyn not far
+away. He invited me over and shared all sorts of things including software and
+I think he loaned me some contact mics.
+
+
+One of the most important people in my career is Bob Bielecki, who's a sound
+engineer, who was a person when I was in the WTC when I was trying to figure out
+contact mics on the window helped me get the contact mics working. I guess I
+tell this story a lot, but when I said, "I wish I could make sound like the
+color of this beautiful sunset, he pulled out a pocket full of photocells, and
+said "light has a frequency. If you can find a way to translate them, maybe I
+can find something to wire up for you." And he carved out the inside of an XLR
+tubing, replaced it with a photocell and wired it, built a little circuit for
+me. That opened up so many mental pathways.
+
+He came up one night with a telescope and we pointed the photocell into the
+telescope across the river to New Jersey and it picked up the sound of the light
+of a police car going by. It ended up making one of my most well-known and
+most-matured CDs even though it was done so early called "Bright and Dusty
+Things." I think all of my soundmaking started with photocell recordings.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+What type of work do you like to do?
+
+
+**Stephen Vitello**
+
+I like site-specific work. If somebody gives me a whitebox gallery, I often
+don't have much inspiration. I like when I'm given a space that has some kind of
+sonic resonance, but also maybe cultural resonance. Where I can walk in and feel
+something right away, but then there's room to research and learn.
+
+Because people are so culturally conditioned to look at visuals and how dominant
+-- but I want to make work in which sound is dominant. Once I get into a space
+and figure out "what does this speak to me?" but also "if there could be
+anything visual." If the place has got some kind of strong visual itself, how do
+I shape the experience so that at least some viewers will understand its first
+and foremost a soundspace. Sometimes the easiest thing to do is to turn the
+lights off -- but that seems very... not the right balance. But sometimes I've
+worked with a lighting designer. I've worked with an architect. Often I do work
+that's multichannel. Start to figure out where to place speakers, where to place
+the viewer... "is there really a sweet spot?" "Is there another kind of surround
+space that's more open-ended that people can move around?", that's probably
+preferable, because it's not telling you, "this is what you have to do." And in
+the same way, I try to make work that I have an idea of how I do a thing, but I
+don't want to say, "you have to get this point, otherwise you're not getting
+it." And so, a lot of what happens is that in someplace I have an experience and
+I want to translate what that experience did to me into a work of art into a
+space and give people the chance to have an experience. But again, they can't
+have _my_ experience. If I was in the Brazillian Amazon, there was something so
+specific to be there. I can only bring apart of an interesting shadow to that
+introspace in France I've been lucky enough to present at. I do consider visuals
+because I'm often presenting in visual spaces, but I try to do it very subtlely.
+
+My first kinda breakthrough show was in a really big group show at PS1 called
+Greater NY. Most people were in crowded spaces, I had a room to myself. I was
+disappointed that there were only 3 or 5 people in my room -- and then I
+realized I was lucky because those 3-5 people were staying for a long time which
+meant that they were getting something very different than if they were just
+quickly observing and moving on.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+When you read literature, do you focus on sound?
+
+
+**Stephen Vitello**
+
+I do, yeah, for sure. And certainly certain writers. I've reread Virginia
+Woolfe's "Waves" so many times because I love her references to sound. There's
+others like Murakami where I like the way he slips with reality. Maybe I'm
+not thinking about it in that moment, but then when I start working on a new
+sound piece and it starts with birds and they go through some kind of
+manipulation into some kind of processed realm, I realize that something from
+the literature I like has influenced that. My favorite mystery writer is
+James Lee Burke. He writes these really rich landscape-based mysteries in
+Louisiana. I know that's influenced my connection to field recordings and a kind
+of haunted South that I don't even feel in VA as much as I fantasize about.
+
+
+**Leonard Francis Coogan**
+
+Thank you for the interview.

+Hey everybody! In this episode I’ll be interviewing Chuck Wrenn. Chuck Wrenn is someone who had a heavy involvement in the Richmond music scene from the first psychedelic dance in VA, all the way up to High on the Hog. He’s lived in Richmond his whole life and has been part of some crazy scenes. I love Chuck. I’ve known Chuck since I was born and he helped raise me, so this is a very special interview to me.

ISKON stands for International Society for Krishna Consciousness, which is the organization that leads the Hare Krishna movement.

+&lt;hr&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Hey everybody! In this episode I’ll be interviewing Chuck Wrenn. Chuck Wrenn is
+someone who had a heavy involvement in the Richmond music scene from the first
+psychedelic dance in VA, all the way up to High on the Hog. He’s lived in
+Richmond his whole life and has been part of some crazy scenes. I love Chuck.
+I’ve known Chuck since I was born and he helped raise me, so this is a very
+special interview to me. The music used is an improvised piece by Peter Lyon
+Huff that he recorded in my basement for this interview.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;hr&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chuck Wrenn&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Alright man, whatcha got in mind?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;You were telling me earlier that you used to explore abandoned buildings in
+Richmond. Did you ever have an encounter with the police?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chuck Wrenn&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;My closest experience with old buildings and police was when there was an empty
+building downtown &amp;ndash; not all the way downtown, but I guess around first street
+I&amp;rsquo;d say. Foushees. It was a vacant building that had a stained glass window in
+the side of it. And me and my brother and law at the time said, &amp;ldquo;I&amp;rsquo;d really like
+to get that stained glass window, and I said &amp;ldquo;alright, we can go get that.&amp;rdquo; We
+took our tools, just hand tools to go in and pry that window out. While we were
+in there working on the window, somebody called the cops. So the cops showed up
+at the place. There was no way out. We couldn&amp;rsquo;t get out. And the cops were
+heading in the house, so he and I opened up the door and got behind the door up
+against the wall and the cops came in with flashlights and looked all around and
+walked out the room. We were right behind the damn open door up against the
+wall. Boy that was one helluva a night.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Yeah, what else happened that night?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chuck Wrenn&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Just waited for the cops to leave. If they had a dog, we would&amp;rsquo;ve been shit.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;When was the first show you organized?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chuck Wrenn&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;The first big one&amp;hellip; I started out doing that stuff in highschool. I had friends
+in bands and I&amp;rsquo;d put on a show and advertise it around school and a couple
+hundred people would come and we&amp;rsquo;d rent a place to put on a show. The first
+really big one I did &amp;ndash; there used to be a ballroom called Tantilla Ballroom, it
+was down on Broad St. It has a really long, great history. It was considered to
+be the major ballroom in the South, it&amp;rsquo;s torn down now. Me &amp;amp; a couple of buddies
+rented this ballroom and put on the first psychedelic dance in the state of VA.
+We rented a bunch of equipment to put the show on. We rented so much equipment
+&amp;ndash; we sold the show out &amp;ndash; and rented so much equipment we lost money on it.
+That was a big one. Gosh, since then, there&amp;rsquo;s been countless shows. Up to &amp;ldquo;High
+on the Hog.&amp;rdquo; Now, I wasn&amp;rsquo;t the only guy that did the &amp;ldquo;High on the Hog.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Tell me about Woodstock. Did you have any role in organizing it?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chuck Wrenn&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;I didn&amp;rsquo;t have anything to do with putting it on, but before that there was a
+festival called Atlantic City Pop. A buddy of mine had a leather good store. And
+he was gonna go out in a booth and sell the stuff that he&amp;rsquo;d made. It was a great
+time. Saw a lot of great bands. We were just up there running his booth. But
+while I was up there, I noticed a lot of people wearing tie-dye shirts and
+people were selling them. Came back to Richmond and said, &amp;ldquo;we can do this at
+Woodstock.&amp;rdquo; So my wife and I and a couple of friends started tie-dying t-shirts
+at our apartment. We tie-dyed a shit ton of them. We&amp;rsquo;d go out and buy big cases
+of white Hane&amp;rsquo;s t-shirts and come home and have a couple of pots on the stove.
+And my wife and I (we were the only people that went up to Woodstock). We loaded
+up all the t-shirts and went up to Woodstock. We got up there Thursday before
+they closed the interstate and got within a mile from the stage. Fairly close at
+the time. People were just coming in and parking on the side of the road, so if
+you were there you weren&amp;rsquo;t going anywhere. There wasn&amp;rsquo;t no way you&amp;rsquo;d be getting
+out. So we set up our little tie-dye shirt thing. I had some pipe and we opened
+the doors and duct-taped the pipe and started hanging up the t-shirts. So we&amp;rsquo;re
+selling t-shirts up there. I had a big cooler of beer with me. It was going
+great. Then people started coming by and a guy came by and said, &amp;ldquo;I&amp;rsquo;d really
+like to get this shirt, but I don&amp;rsquo;t have any money. Would you take some hash for
+it?&amp;rdquo; I said, &amp;ldquo;yeah sure.&amp;rdquo; So we&amp;rsquo;re doing that. Now other people would come by,
+&amp;ldquo;I don&amp;rsquo;t have any mother either, but I like the shirt. Would you swap for some
+acid?&amp;rdquo; And next thing I know, we&amp;rsquo;ve got pot, hash, acid &amp;ndash; along with the
+t-shirts. So I set a sheet over the hood of the car and I started putting out
+the stuff with prices that we&amp;rsquo;d swapped for. So now we&amp;rsquo;re selling tie-dyed
+t-shirts, pot, LSD. Hehehe! We never got to the stage until Sunday. We got there
+on Thursday. But it was such a crazy scene. And then people were going &amp;ldquo;I&amp;rsquo;m
+drinking this beer.&amp;rdquo; I said &amp;ldquo;you got anmyore of that beer, you wanna sell some?&amp;rdquo;
+They said, &amp;ldquo;okay!&amp;rdquo;. So now I&amp;rsquo;m selling beer. Just crazy. Crazy shit.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;How&amp;rsquo;d you get to know Bruce Springsteen?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chuck Wrenn&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Well, Bruce started coming to town &amp;ndash; first time I saw Bruce and his band was in
+Monroe park and they came down and played free. No one had heard of them. They
+were just kids from New Jersey. They came down in a beat-up old truck and
+equipment and set up in Monroe park and played. I knew they were gonna be a big
+deal, because even as kids &amp;ndash; I guess Bruce was like 18 &amp;ndash; and they were good
+from the start. First time I ever saw them, I said &amp;ldquo;man, these guys are gonna be
+&lt;em&gt;something&lt;/em&gt;.&amp;rdquo; And they were one of the first bands, maybe the first band, I ever
+heard that mic&amp;rsquo;d all the amps through the PA. So instead of just having the amps
+and playing at that volume, they put mics in front of the amps and put them into
+the PA so you get this huge sound. They&amp;rsquo;d come to Richmond and they didn&amp;rsquo;t have
+a lot of places to play. They had Asbury park in NJ. Richmond got to be one of
+the places that were real popular from them. They&amp;rsquo;d come down every month or
+two, I guess, and play. I got to be friends with &amp;rsquo;em and did a lot of posters
+for the band and that kind of stuff &amp;ndash; just liked &amp;rsquo;em. Bruce never stayed at my
+house, but most of the band did. And at that time, my wife, my wife at that time
+would make up a big spaghetti dinner and feed the band and they&amp;rsquo;d sleep on the
+floor. We did that for a while. They got to where they didn&amp;rsquo;t need to sleep on
+my floor anymore. Ahehehe! Bruce used to come to my apartment and eat dinner and
+stuff, but Bruce always pretty-much stayed to himself. He was not a party guy at
+all. Didn&amp;rsquo;t drink, didn&amp;rsquo;t take any drugs, didn&amp;rsquo;t smoke pot. The rest of the guys
+were pretty much rollin&amp;rsquo;, they were a rock &amp;rsquo;n roll band.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Speaking of pot, didn&amp;rsquo;t you have a club called &amp;ldquo;The Health Club&amp;rdquo;?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chuck Wrenn&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Yeah! Heh, T-H-C. It wasn&amp;rsquo;t anything official, it was just some guys, friends of
+mine. At that time we were into 10-speed bikes and we&amp;rsquo;d go out to the park early
+in the morning and ride laps. We had another group called &amp;ldquo;The Bothers&amp;rdquo;. Our
+motto was &amp;ldquo;we do both&amp;rdquo;. I drew a t-shirt that had a joint and a bottle of beer
+walking down the street arm-and-arm. The beer was holding a joint, and the joint
+was drinking holding a beer. The bothers, &amp;ldquo;we do both.&amp;rdquo; All those apartments
+around &amp;ldquo;Harrison St&amp;rdquo; and &amp;ldquo;Park Ave&amp;rdquo; were where a lot of kids lived. It was a
+real social thing. You&amp;rsquo;d come over and knock on someone&amp;rsquo;s door, &amp;ldquo;hey what&amp;rsquo;s
+happening?&amp;rdquo; smoke a joint. Everyone was just hanging out. Listening to records
+and all that kind of stuff.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Tell me about your drug experiences?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chuck Wrenn&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Taken &amp;ndash; well, not every drug, but I&amp;rsquo;ve taken a lot of drugs. Not for any length
+of time. Just for the experience.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Are there any trips you remember distinctly?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chuck Wrenn&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;One experience &amp;ndash; I used to live on the corner of Harrison St and Grove Ave.
+There was a 3-story building that burnt down, not there anymore. But I had an
+apartment on the third floor; and I had taken some LS&amp;ndash; acid. Across the street
+there was a laundromat that had a soft drink dispensing machine. I had decided
+that I would like to have a Coke. Came downstairs, stood on the sidewalk. There
+was a stoplight. I was waitinga nd nhe light would change and I&amp;rsquo;d step off a
+couple of steps and the light would change back and I&amp;rsquo;d walk back. I could never
+get across the street! Ended up just going back to my apartment. It was just
+crazy shit like that. Funny stuff. It was all in good fun. Not anything at the
+time about. Just everybody laughing.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Where did the laughter go?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chuck Wrenn&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;That&amp;rsquo;s what I&amp;rsquo;m wondering!&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;What time was this?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chuck Wrenn&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;That was the late &amp;rsquo;60s. Then it got to a point where cocaine came on the scene,
+and that was a whole different thing. That was awful.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;The &amp;rsquo;80s?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chuck Wrenn&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Yeah, that would&amp;rsquo;ve been the disco time.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Cocaine and disco.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chuck Wrenn&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Not any fun. Neither one of them.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;When did you buy your house in Church Hill?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chuck Wrenn&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;I bought that house with my first wife in 1975. I was there 45 years and Hollie
+was there with me for 25.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;You bought it when the area was completly different.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chuck Wrenn&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Trashed. Real dangerous to be up there. It was not a developed place like it is
+today at all.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Not a place to raise children.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chuck Wrenn&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Nah, I mean &lt;em&gt;dangerous&lt;/em&gt;. I got shot twice when I was living up there. It was not
+a good neighborhood. Most of the houses were just flop houses, crack houses.
+When I bought my house, the upstairs of the house was uninhabitable, the
+downstairs had pad-locks on every door and a heater in the middle and
+mattresses. I took 15 mattresses out of that place when I bought it. Our
+parents thought we were nuts to buy that house, that we were gonna be killed.
+You walked in Libby park and there were just syringes and wine bottles and
+liquor bottles laying around the trees. You couldn&amp;rsquo;t go out at night.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Speaking of which, you have two bullets in your body from being shot.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chuck Wrenn&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Yep, I told him that. I was in a robbery. I wasn&amp;rsquo;t robbing, but I was being
+robbed and ended up getting shot twice. Once in the side here, and once in my
+but over here. I was obviously running. The guy shot me in the back.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;This was at your workshop, right?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chuck Wrenn&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Yeah, I had a workshop that I rented with another guy. It was up on 33rd and
+Marshall. I&amp;rsquo;ve been half-shot lots of times, but when you get really &lt;em&gt;shot&lt;/em&gt;. It
+burns. It&amp;rsquo;s just hot. It&amp;rsquo;s like someone hit you really hard with a paddle.
+That&amp;rsquo;s what it feels like. But it didn&amp;rsquo;t do any real damage. I was in the
+hospital five days. It wasn&amp;rsquo;t anything life-threatening.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;There was a certain story I heard about you in Church Hill regarding your dog.
+Tell the story, Chuck.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chuck Wrenn&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;This was my first dog with my first wife, Mira, the dancer. We lived on Franklin
+St. We had separated, so it was just me and the dog on Franlkin St and my wife
+moved into another place. I was working in the restaurant business, as usual.
+The dog was really old, and I had put a sheet and some plastic down in the
+downstairs room. The dog was incontenent. Put the food bowl down. It was warm in
+the summer, had a window fan in there for the dog. And I came back from work one
+night and the dog had eaten dinner then laid down in front of the fan and died.
+It was just there. So I was thinking, &amp;ldquo;what am I gonna do?&amp;rdquo; I wrapped the dog up
+in the sheet and said, &amp;ldquo;I&amp;rsquo;ll just have to deal with it in the morning.&amp;rdquo; I went
+upstairs and I couldn&amp;rsquo;t sleep. I just couldn&amp;rsquo;t sleep like that. I came back down
+and put the dog in my van and got a shovel and put on my boots and went over to
+the Libby Park overlook, which is where we used to always walk. And I dug a
+significant grave for the dog at the overlook. There was a cop up there named
+Mongo. Mongo was his name. He was a really good guy and friend of everybody on
+Church Hill. Everybody knew him. It was back when the police had a beat. His
+beat was our neighborhood. He&amp;rsquo;d go by and stop and help people take groceries in
+the house and he was a good friend. So he pulled up and wanted to know what I
+was doing. The dog was still wrapped up in the sheet in the truck and I&amp;rsquo;m
+digging this grave.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;He says, &amp;ldquo;what&amp;rsquo;s going on?&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;I told him tearfully and sentimentally, &amp;ldquo;my old dog died and I&amp;rsquo;m burying him. I
+know I shouldn&amp;rsquo;t be doing it [here], but this is a special place.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;He said, &amp;ldquo;I&amp;rsquo;ll let you go do that, no problem, but first I need to look at the
+dog.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;I opened up the truck and showed him the dog and pulled the blanket back and he
+said, &amp;ldquo;go ahead.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;I finished burying the dog and all that and the night was over. But it was
+pretty damn funny. &amp;ldquo;I don&amp;rsquo;t know what you&amp;rsquo;re doing, but I need to look at the
+dog.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Make sure it&amp;rsquo;s not a person.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Chuck Wrenn&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Make sure it&amp;rsquo;s not my wife! Yeah, that was pretty funny. Well it is now, but it
+was rough then.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Alright thanks for listening. In the next episode I&amp;rsquo;ll be interviewing Gen Ken
+Montgomery who ran the Generator Sound Art gallery in NYC.&lt;/p&gt;

+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;In this episode I&amp;rsquo;ll be interviewing the head of the ISKON of Virginia, Sriman
+Dasa. ISKON stands for International Society for Krishna Consciousness, which is
+the organization that leads the Hare Krishna movement. I&amp;rsquo;ve known Sriman since
+the summer of &amp;lsquo;22 when I started organizing shows at the heavily-affiliated
+Govinda restaurant directly across from the ISKON temple.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;hr&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;When was the ISKON of VA founded?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sriman Dasa&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;That was done in 2016.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;So rather recent.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sriman Dasa&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Recently. Real ISKON was set up in 1966 actually.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;I read that, isn&amp;rsquo;t there a temple in West VA?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sriman Dasa&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Yes, many major city have temples and especially in WV there is a big temple
+with 200 acres of land. That was built in the 1970s.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Is it still active?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sriman Dasa&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Yes, very active, and they have a guest house and many people visit all the time
+and stay there overnight. Very enjoyable. They have cows. They found some oil in
+the land. Lot of visitors. They were suffering one time financially, but now
+they have no problem.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;You&amp;rsquo;re a religious leader, right?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sriman Dasa&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Yes, I am president of this organization here. ISKON of Virginia.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;What led you to this position?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sriman Dasa&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;That was because for many years I had been practicing. Being from India, born
+and grew up. In India it&amp;rsquo;s very common for Hindus to go to temple and become
+servant of G-d. There are many paths in India. When I came here [in 1970, there
+were no other temples beside ISKON. When I went first to Chicago I found a Hare
+Krishna temple and went there. Then I moved to Atlanta, and there was also a
+Hare Krishna temple there and I started going there. From there I moved to
+Baltimore and DC &amp;ndash; all those places. Slowly I started going. In those days,
+those were the only temples we had. Now we have many temples. I met different
+Hindu religion priests and many other people, but by then I was convinced that
+Hare Krishna was the proper way of philosophy presented about Krishna. That&amp;rsquo;s
+why I continued.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;How is Hare Krishna different from the religion you grew up practicing?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sriman Dasa&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Other religions that I was aware of in India believe all the demig-ds as well
+as Krishna are on the same level. They do not have a differentiation. They were
+not openly pointing out what the goal of life should be. In Hare Krishna, they
+say Krishna is supreme &amp;hellip; of G-dhead and that the goal of the life should be to
+develop love for Krishna. There are many demig-ds people in India follow and
+they are representative of G-d-law. It&amp;rsquo;s just like president of the govt.
+Secretary is in a different department. If you serve the secretary, you may get
+some benefits, but if know the president you can get around anything.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Have you ever seen visions of Krishna?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sriman Dasa&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;I haven&amp;rsquo;t seen the G-d yet, but I look back my life and over the life I&amp;rsquo;ve been
+materially much better and spiritually making progress which gives me comfort in
+my life. Even though I&amp;rsquo;m 80 years old, at this age, I&amp;rsquo;m a happy person. Better
+than all my 80 years behind. Normally people when they get old, they have less
+happy days. Disease, not happy with the children, not happy with the govt, they
+don&amp;rsquo;t have enough money to survive. But in my case, I enjoy every moment of it.
+It looks like G-d is praising me and giving me what I want.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;You said you first came here from India to Chicago. What were you doing for a
+living?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sriman Dasa&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;I came from India as a student and went to University of Tennessee and did my
+masters degree. At that time I was struggling a bit financially. I didn&amp;rsquo;t have
+money when I came from India. But luckily within 3 months I got permission to
+work within the university; then I never had problems financially. Then I did my
+masters and started working a little bit part-time.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Didn&amp;rsquo;t you say you got a PhD?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sriman Dasa&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;No, I did not finish it. I did the coursework and when I was supposed to do a
+dissertation I decided to move forward and work in the outside.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;What were you during your PhD in?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sriman Dasa&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;It was a NASA-related project, laser technologies and optical technology and
+searching for meteor trails falling from the sky. I was doing some mathematical
+model research. It was an interesting project. But I was successful to proving
+my master thesis. My advisor was very happy. He came one day when I finished and
+lifted up the paper and said, &amp;ldquo;you made my life.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;How&amp;rsquo;d you transition from that to becoming a religious leader?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sriman Dasa&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Oh really this was developing on the side, just like my regular job as an
+engineer continued there and there, different companies. And religiously went to
+this temple that temple. In the beginning not too much into it, but more and
+more I got involved. But slowly I got into the service more and started cleaning
+pots and pans and mopping the floor and praying and those things developed as I
+continued with it.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;But how&amp;rsquo;d you stop being an engineer?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sriman Dasa&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;I did not stop, I just wanted to balance out work and life and slowly I decided
+sooner or later I should quit the job and go on my own business so I have more
+freedom. So I only worked in America as an engineer for 14 years of my life.
+After I quit I started my own real estate business and then had more time. Do
+whatever I want, just go to temple. So it worked out really good, good
+combination.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Aren&amp;rsquo;t you a landlord now?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sriman Dasa&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Yes, yes. Means I got rid of most of my property. Live more simple life. More
+I&amp;rsquo;m more concentrating here (the temple) &amp;amp; my sadhyna. Everyday I have to put
+spice at least 4 times in the sadhnya. Go out and feed the homeless people.
+People whoever come we offer them, we preach, we discuss.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;What does it mean to be Krishna of Consciousness?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sriman Dasa&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Krishna Consciousness means we all have a consciousness thinking what we think
+inside. Somebody have a consciousness for his family, somebody has a
+consciousness for his nation, somebody has a consciousness for himself, and
+Krishna consciousness means we think about Krishna, a supersoul inside. We are
+the soul, we are part of it. Clearly which is given in the Bhagavad Gita we try
+to develop in our consciousness so that we more become apart of it. If you say
+&amp;ldquo;I&amp;rsquo;m American&amp;rdquo; &amp;ndash; then as soon as you say &amp;ldquo;I&amp;rsquo;m American&amp;rdquo; you feel that you&amp;rsquo;re
+part of America. Even if you&amp;rsquo;re born in Africa and you live in America,
+naturally your consciousness is in Africa. This is only one aspect of
+consciousness. So Krishna Consciousness is trying to relate yourself as a
+servant of Krishna.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Does the religion believe in free will?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sriman Dasa&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Oh yeah, that&amp;rsquo;s why we are here. We have a free will. That was the main
+fundamental situation we had that&amp;rsquo;s why we wind up in this material world.
+Otherwise we live in a spritual world, with Krishna, serving Him. Take a family
+for example, you have four children. Krishna is your father. One guy say I&amp;rsquo;m
+going to Africa, one guy say I&amp;rsquo;m going to New York, and father is in Richmond.
+Time goes by, nobody wants to come and say &amp;ldquo;hello&amp;rdquo; to his father and they&amp;rsquo;ve
+forgotton. One guy who was living in New York he keeps in touch with the
+Richmond father &amp;amp; mother and once a while, weekend comes by, he says &amp;ldquo;how can I
+help you?&amp;rdquo; So he becomes a loving child. The other guys are not getting too much
+health. And the father says, &amp;ldquo;let them&amp;rdquo;. That&amp;rsquo;s a free will example. We have
+forgotten our relation with our father. We have decided to go away from him.
+That&amp;rsquo;s why we have ended up in this material world. We think we are happy, but
+no, if we go to our father we will be much happier. Like when the New York guy
+goes to his father in Richmond. Father is happy, mother is happy, they take care
+of each other. And that is our duty as Krishna of Consciousness, to go back to
+home and become servant of Krishna.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;We&amp;rsquo;re in the age of Kali Yuga which means the furthest from Krishna, right?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sriman Dasa&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Not furthest, we are in the material world, but Kali Yuga is such a situation
+that is forgetfulness and mind is not intelligent. Two days back you probably
+can&amp;rsquo;t remember what you ate. That&amp;rsquo;s why this formula that is given, Hare Krishna
+mantra, is very powerful. It has a spiritual vibration, and when you sing that
+mantra, the mantra connects you directly to Krishna. It penetrates this planet
+and goes to the spiritual plane and to Krishna &amp;ndash; that powerful. When we call
+our cellular phone to Africa, that is what&amp;rsquo;s happening. Spatial frequency takes
+you to Africa. Same day when you chant Hare Krishna, it has a spatial frequency
+that connects you to Krishna.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;What does the mantra mean in English?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sriman Dasa&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;It&amp;rsquo;s a prayer.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;There is no translation?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sriman Dasa&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Maybe not, but you can say it&amp;rsquo;s a quick prayer. That&amp;rsquo;s it? Thank you for coming.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Leonard Francis Coogan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Yep, thanks for agreeing to this.&lt;/p&gt;

+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>Hey everybody! In this episode I’ll be interviewing Chuck Wrenn. Chuck Wrenn is
+someone who had a heavy involvement in the Richmond music scene from the first
+psychedelic dance in VA, all the way up to High on the Hog. He’s lived in
+Richmond his whole life and has been part of some crazy scenes. I love Chuck.
+I’ve known Chuck since I was born and he helped raise me, so this is a very
+special interview to me. The music used is an improvised piece by Peter Lyon
+Huff that he recorded in my basement for this interview.</p>
+<hr>
+<p><strong>Chuck Wrenn</strong></p>
+<p>Alright man, whatcha got in mind?</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>You were telling me earlier that you used to explore abandoned buildings in
+Richmond. Did you ever have an encounter with the police?</p>
+<p><strong>Chuck Wrenn</strong></p>
+<p>My closest experience with old buildings and police was when there was an empty
+building downtown &ndash; not all the way downtown, but I guess around first street
+I&rsquo;d say. Foushees. It was a vacant building that had a stained glass window in
+the side of it. And me and my brother and law at the time said, &ldquo;I&rsquo;d really like
+to get that stained glass window, and I said &ldquo;alright, we can go get that.&rdquo; We
+took our tools, just hand tools to go in and pry that window out. While we were
+in there working on the window, somebody called the cops. So the cops showed up
+at the place. There was no way out. We couldn&rsquo;t get out. And the cops were
+heading in the house, so he and I opened up the door and got behind the door up
+against the wall and the cops came in with flashlights and looked all around and
+walked out the room. We were right behind the damn open door up against the
+wall. Boy that was one helluva a night.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>Yeah, what else happened that night?</p>
+<p><strong>Chuck Wrenn</strong></p>
+<p>Just waited for the cops to leave. If they had a dog, we would&rsquo;ve been shit.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>When was the first show you organized?</p>
+<p><strong>Chuck Wrenn</strong></p>
+<p>The first big one&hellip; I started out doing that stuff in highschool. I had friends
+in bands and I&rsquo;d put on a show and advertise it around school and a couple
+hundred people would come and we&rsquo;d rent a place to put on a show. The first
+really big one I did &ndash; there used to be a ballroom called Tantilla Ballroom, it
+was down on Broad St. It has a really long, great history. It was considered to
+be the major ballroom in the South, it&rsquo;s torn down now. Me &amp; a couple of buddies
+rented this ballroom and put on the first psychedelic dance in the state of VA.
+We rented a bunch of equipment to put the show on. We rented so much equipment
+&ndash; we sold the show out &ndash; and rented so much equipment we lost money on it.
+That was a big one. Gosh, since then, there&rsquo;s been countless shows. Up to &ldquo;High
+on the Hog.&rdquo; Now, I wasn&rsquo;t the only guy that did the &ldquo;High on the Hog.&rdquo;</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>Tell me about Woodstock. Did you have any role in organizing it?</p>
+<p><strong>Chuck Wrenn</strong></p>
+<p>I didn&rsquo;t have anything to do with putting it on, but before that there was a
+festival called Atlantic City Pop. A buddy of mine had a leather good store. And
+he was gonna go out in a booth and sell the stuff that he&rsquo;d made. It was a great
+time. Saw a lot of great bands. We were just up there running his booth. But
+while I was up there, I noticed a lot of people wearing tie-dye shirts and
+people were selling them. Came back to Richmond and said, &ldquo;we can do this at
+Woodstock.&rdquo; So my wife and I and a couple of friends started tie-dying t-shirts
+at our apartment. We tie-dyed a shit ton of them. We&rsquo;d go out and buy big cases
+of white Hane&rsquo;s t-shirts and come home and have a couple of pots on the stove.
+And my wife and I (we were the only people that went up to Woodstock). We loaded
+up all the t-shirts and went up to Woodstock. We got up there Thursday before
+they closed the interstate and got within a mile from the stage. Fairly close at
+the time. People were just coming in and parking on the side of the road, so if
+you were there you weren&rsquo;t going anywhere. There wasn&rsquo;t no way you&rsquo;d be getting
+out. So we set up our little tie-dye shirt thing. I had some pipe and we opened
+the doors and duct-taped the pipe and started hanging up the t-shirts. So we&rsquo;re
+selling t-shirts up there. I had a big cooler of beer with me. It was going
+great. Then people started coming by and a guy came by and said, &ldquo;I&rsquo;d really
+like to get this shirt, but I don&rsquo;t have any money. Would you take some hash for
+it?&rdquo; I said, &ldquo;yeah sure.&rdquo; So we&rsquo;re doing that. Now other people would come by,
+&ldquo;I don&rsquo;t have any mother either, but I like the shirt. Would you swap for some
+acid?&rdquo; And next thing I know, we&rsquo;ve got pot, hash, acid &ndash; along with the
+t-shirts. So I set a sheet over the hood of the car and I started putting out
+the stuff with prices that we&rsquo;d swapped for. So now we&rsquo;re selling tie-dyed
+t-shirts, pot, LSD. Hehehe! We never got to the stage until Sunday. We got there
+on Thursday. But it was such a crazy scene. And then people were going &ldquo;I&rsquo;m
+drinking this beer.&rdquo; I said &ldquo;you got anmyore of that beer, you wanna sell some?&rdquo;
+They said, &ldquo;okay!&rdquo;. So now I&rsquo;m selling beer. Just crazy. Crazy shit.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>How&rsquo;d you get to know Bruce Springsteen?</p>
+<p><strong>Chuck Wrenn</strong></p>
+<p>Well, Bruce started coming to town &ndash; first time I saw Bruce and his band was in
+Monroe park and they came down and played free. No one had heard of them. They
+were just kids from New Jersey. They came down in a beat-up old truck and
+equipment and set up in Monroe park and played. I knew they were gonna be a big
+deal, because even as kids &ndash; I guess Bruce was like 18 &ndash; and they were good
+from the start. First time I ever saw them, I said &ldquo;man, these guys are gonna be
+<em>something</em>.&rdquo; And they were one of the first bands, maybe the first band, I ever
+heard that mic&rsquo;d all the amps through the PA. So instead of just having the amps
+and playing at that volume, they put mics in front of the amps and put them into
+the PA so you get this huge sound. They&rsquo;d come to Richmond and they didn&rsquo;t have
+a lot of places to play. They had Asbury park in NJ. Richmond got to be one of
+the places that were real popular from them. They&rsquo;d come down every month or
+two, I guess, and play. I got to be friends with &rsquo;em and did a lot of posters
+for the band and that kind of stuff &ndash; just liked &rsquo;em. Bruce never stayed at my
+house, but most of the band did. And at that time, my wife, my wife at that time
+would make up a big spaghetti dinner and feed the band and they&rsquo;d sleep on the
+floor. We did that for a while. They got to where they didn&rsquo;t need to sleep on
+my floor anymore. Ahehehe! Bruce used to come to my apartment and eat dinner and
+stuff, but Bruce always pretty-much stayed to himself. He was not a party guy at
+all. Didn&rsquo;t drink, didn&rsquo;t take any drugs, didn&rsquo;t smoke pot. The rest of the guys
+were pretty much rollin&rsquo;, they were a rock &rsquo;n roll band.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>Speaking of pot, didn&rsquo;t you have a club called &ldquo;The Health Club&rdquo;?</p>
+<p><strong>Chuck Wrenn</strong></p>
+<p>Yeah! Heh, T-H-C. It wasn&rsquo;t anything official, it was just some guys, friends of
+mine. At that time we were into 10-speed bikes and we&rsquo;d go out to the park early
+in the morning and ride laps. We had another group called &ldquo;The Bothers&rdquo;. Our
+motto was &ldquo;we do both&rdquo;. I drew a t-shirt that had a joint and a bottle of beer
+walking down the street arm-and-arm. The beer was holding a joint, and the joint
+was drinking holding a beer. The bothers, &ldquo;we do both.&rdquo; All those apartments
+around &ldquo;Harrison St&rdquo; and &ldquo;Park Ave&rdquo; were where a lot of kids lived. It was a
+real social thing. You&rsquo;d come over and knock on someone&rsquo;s door, &ldquo;hey what&rsquo;s
+happening?&rdquo; smoke a joint. Everyone was just hanging out. Listening to records
+and all that kind of stuff.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>Tell me about your drug experiences?</p>
+<p><strong>Chuck Wrenn</strong></p>
+<p>Taken &ndash; well, not every drug, but I&rsquo;ve taken a lot of drugs. Not for any length
+of time. Just for the experience.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>Are there any trips you remember distinctly?</p>
+<p><strong>Chuck Wrenn</strong></p>
+<p>One experience &ndash; I used to live on the corner of Harrison St and Grove Ave.
+There was a 3-story building that burnt down, not there anymore. But I had an
+apartment on the third floor; and I had taken some LS&ndash; acid. Across the street
+there was a laundromat that had a soft drink dispensing machine. I had decided
+that I would like to have a Coke. Came downstairs, stood on the sidewalk. There
+was a stoplight. I was waitinga nd nhe light would change and I&rsquo;d step off a
+couple of steps and the light would change back and I&rsquo;d walk back. I could never
+get across the street! Ended up just going back to my apartment. It was just
+crazy shit like that. Funny stuff. It was all in good fun. Not anything at the
+time about. Just everybody laughing.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>Where did the laughter go?</p>
+<p><strong>Chuck Wrenn</strong></p>
+<p>That&rsquo;s what I&rsquo;m wondering!</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>What time was this?</p>
+<p><strong>Chuck Wrenn</strong></p>
+<p>That was the late &rsquo;60s. Then it got to a point where cocaine came on the scene,
+and that was a whole different thing. That was awful.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>The &rsquo;80s?</p>
+<p><strong>Chuck Wrenn</strong></p>
+<p>Yeah, that would&rsquo;ve been the disco time.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>Cocaine and disco.&rdquo;</p>
+<p><strong>Chuck Wrenn</strong></p>
+<p>Not any fun. Neither one of them.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>When did you buy your house in Church Hill?</p>
+<p><strong>Chuck Wrenn</strong></p>
+<p>I bought that house with my first wife in 1975. I was there 45 years and Hollie
+was there with me for 25.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>You bought it when the area was completly different.</p>
+<p><strong>Chuck Wrenn</strong></p>
+<p>Trashed. Real dangerous to be up there. It was not a developed place like it is
+today at all.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>Not a place to raise children.</p>
+<p><strong>Chuck Wrenn</strong></p>
+<p>Nah, I mean <em>dangerous</em>. I got shot twice when I was living up there. It was not
+a good neighborhood. Most of the houses were just flop houses, crack houses.
+When I bought my house, the upstairs of the house was uninhabitable, the
+downstairs had pad-locks on every door and a heater in the middle and
+mattresses. I took 15 mattresses out of that place when I bought it. Our
+parents thought we were nuts to buy that house, that we were gonna be killed.
+You walked in Libby park and there were just syringes and wine bottles and
+liquor bottles laying around the trees. You couldn&rsquo;t go out at night.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>Speaking of which, you have two bullets in your body from being shot.</p>
+<p><strong>Chuck Wrenn</strong></p>
+<p>Yep, I told him that. I was in a robbery. I wasn&rsquo;t robbing, but I was being
+robbed and ended up getting shot twice. Once in the side here, and once in my
+but over here. I was obviously running. The guy shot me in the back.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>This was at your workshop, right?</p>
+<p><strong>Chuck Wrenn</strong></p>
+<p>Yeah, I had a workshop that I rented with another guy. It was up on 33rd and
+Marshall. I&rsquo;ve been half-shot lots of times, but when you get really <em>shot</em>. It
+burns. It&rsquo;s just hot. It&rsquo;s like someone hit you really hard with a paddle.
+That&rsquo;s what it feels like. But it didn&rsquo;t do any real damage. I was in the
+hospital five days. It wasn&rsquo;t anything life-threatening.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>There was a certain story I heard about you in Church Hill regarding your dog.
+Tell the story, Chuck.</p>
+<p><strong>Chuck Wrenn</strong></p>
+<p>This was my first dog with my first wife, Mira, the dancer. We lived on Franklin
+St. We had separated, so it was just me and the dog on Franlkin St and my wife
+moved into another place. I was working in the restaurant business, as usual.
+The dog was really old, and I had put a sheet and some plastic down in the
+downstairs room. The dog was incontenent. Put the food bowl down. It was warm in
+the summer, had a window fan in there for the dog. And I came back from work one
+night and the dog had eaten dinner then laid down in front of the fan and died.
+It was just there. So I was thinking, &ldquo;what am I gonna do?&rdquo; I wrapped the dog up
+in the sheet and said, &ldquo;I&rsquo;ll just have to deal with it in the morning.&rdquo; I went
+upstairs and I couldn&rsquo;t sleep. I just couldn&rsquo;t sleep like that. I came back down
+and put the dog in my van and got a shovel and put on my boots and went over to
+the Libby Park overlook, which is where we used to always walk. And I dug a
+significant grave for the dog at the overlook. There was a cop up there named
+Mongo. Mongo was his name. He was a really good guy and friend of everybody on
+Church Hill. Everybody knew him. It was back when the police had a beat. His
+beat was our neighborhood. He&rsquo;d go by and stop and help people take groceries in
+the house and he was a good friend. So he pulled up and wanted to know what I
+was doing. The dog was still wrapped up in the sheet in the truck and I&rsquo;m
+digging this grave.</p>
+<p>He says, &ldquo;what&rsquo;s going on?&rdquo;</p>
+<p>I told him tearfully and sentimentally, &ldquo;my old dog died and I&rsquo;m burying him. I
+know I shouldn&rsquo;t be doing it [here], but this is a special place.&rdquo;</p>
+<p>He said, &ldquo;I&rsquo;ll let you go do that, no problem, but first I need to look at the
+dog.&rdquo;</p>
+<p>I opened up the truck and showed him the dog and pulled the blanket back and he
+said, &ldquo;go ahead.&rdquo;</p>
+<p>I finished burying the dog and all that and the night was over. But it was
+pretty damn funny. &ldquo;I don&rsquo;t know what you&rsquo;re doing, but I need to look at the
+dog.&rdquo;</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>Make sure it&rsquo;s not a person.</p>
+<p><strong>Chuck Wrenn</strong></p>
+<p>Make sure it&rsquo;s not my wife! Yeah, that was pretty funny. Well it is now, but it
+was rough then.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>Alright thanks for listening. In the next episode I&rsquo;ll be interviewing Gen Ken
+Montgomery who ran the Generator Sound Art gallery in NYC.</p>

+      <description>Leonard Francis Coogan&#xA;Hey everybody! In this episode I’ll be interviewing Chuck Wrenn. Chuck Wrenn is someone who had a heavy involvement in the Richmond music scene from the first psychedelic dance in VA, all the way up to High on the Hog. He’s lived in Richmond his whole life and has been part of some crazy scenes. I love Chuck. I’ve known Chuck since I was born and he helped raise me, so this is a very special interview to me.</description>

+      <description>Leonard Francis Coogan&#xA;In this episode I&amp;rsquo;ll be interviewing the head of the ISKON of Virginia, Sriman Dasa. ISKON stands for International Society for Krishna Consciousness, which is the organization that leads the Hare Krishna movement. I&amp;rsquo;ve known Sriman since the summer of &amp;lsquo;22 when I started organizing shows at the heavily-affiliated Govinda restaurant directly across from the ISKON temple.&#xA;Leonard Francis Coogan&#xA;When was the ISKON of VA founded?</description>

+<hr>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>In this episode I&rsquo;ll be interviewing the head of the ISKON of Virginia, Sriman
+Dasa. ISKON stands for International Society for Krishna Consciousness, which is
+the organization that leads the Hare Krishna movement. I&rsquo;ve known Sriman since
+the summer of &lsquo;22 when I started organizing shows at the heavily-affiliated
+Govinda restaurant directly across from the ISKON temple.</p>
+<hr>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>When was the ISKON of VA founded?</p>
+<p><strong>Sriman Dasa</strong></p>
+<p>That was done in 2016.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>So rather recent.</p>
+<p><strong>Sriman Dasa</strong></p>
+<p>Recently. Real ISKON was set up in 1966 actually.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>I read that, isn&rsquo;t there a temple in West VA?</p>
+<p><strong>Sriman Dasa</strong></p>
+<p>Yes, many major city have temples and especially in WV there is a big temple
+with 200 acres of land. That was built in the 1970s.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>Is it still active?</p>
+<p><strong>Sriman Dasa</strong></p>
+<p>Yes, very active, and they have a guest house and many people visit all the time
+and stay there overnight. Very enjoyable. They have cows. They found some oil in
+the land. Lot of visitors. They were suffering one time financially, but now
+they have no problem.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>You&rsquo;re a religious leader, right?</p>
+<p><strong>Sriman Dasa</strong></p>
+<p>Yes, I am president of this organization here. ISKON of Virginia.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>What led you to this position?</p>
+<p><strong>Sriman Dasa</strong></p>
+<p>That was because for many years I had been practicing. Being from India, born
+and grew up. In India it&rsquo;s very common for Hindus to go to temple and become
+servant of G-d. There are many paths in India. When I came here [in 1970, there
+were no other temples beside ISKON. When I went first to Chicago I found a Hare
+Krishna temple and went there. Then I moved to Atlanta, and there was also a
+Hare Krishna temple there and I started going there. From there I moved to
+Baltimore and DC &ndash; all those places. Slowly I started going. In those days,
+those were the only temples we had. Now we have many temples. I met different
+Hindu religion priests and many other people, but by then I was convinced that
+Hare Krishna was the proper way of philosophy presented about Krishna. That&rsquo;s
+why I continued.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>How is Hare Krishna different from the religion you grew up practicing?</p>
+<p><strong>Sriman Dasa</strong></p>
+<p>Other religions that I was aware of in India believe all the demig-ds as well
+as Krishna are on the same level. They do not have a differentiation. They were
+not openly pointing out what the goal of life should be. In Hare Krishna, they
+say Krishna is supreme &hellip; of G-dhead and that the goal of the life should be to
+develop love for Krishna. There are many demig-ds people in India follow and
+they are representative of G-d-law. It&rsquo;s just like president of the govt.
+Secretary is in a different department. If you serve the secretary, you may get
+some benefits, but if know the president you can get around anything.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>Have you ever seen visions of Krishna?</p>
+<p><strong>Sriman Dasa</strong></p>
+<p>I haven&rsquo;t seen the G-d yet, but I look back my life and over the life I&rsquo;ve been
+materially much better and spiritually making progress which gives me comfort in
+my life. Even though I&rsquo;m 80 years old, at this age, I&rsquo;m a happy person. Better
+than all my 80 years behind. Normally people when they get old, they have less
+happy days. Disease, not happy with the children, not happy with the govt, they
+don&rsquo;t have enough money to survive. But in my case, I enjoy every moment of it.
+It looks like G-d is praising me and giving me what I want.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>You said you first came here from India to Chicago. What were you doing for a
+living?</p>
+<p><strong>Sriman Dasa</strong></p>
+<p>I came from India as a student and went to University of Tennessee and did my
+masters degree. At that time I was struggling a bit financially. I didn&rsquo;t have
+money when I came from India. But luckily within 3 months I got permission to
+work within the university; then I never had problems financially. Then I did my
+masters and started working a little bit part-time.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>Didn&rsquo;t you say you got a PhD?</p>
+<p><strong>Sriman Dasa</strong></p>
+<p>No, I did not finish it. I did the coursework and when I was supposed to do a
+dissertation I decided to move forward and work in the outside.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>What were you during your PhD in?</p>
+<p><strong>Sriman Dasa</strong></p>
+<p>It was a NASA-related project, laser technologies and optical technology and
+searching for meteor trails falling from the sky. I was doing some mathematical
+model research. It was an interesting project. But I was successful to proving
+my master thesis. My advisor was very happy. He came one day when I finished and
+lifted up the paper and said, &ldquo;you made my life.&rdquo;</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>How&rsquo;d you transition from that to becoming a religious leader?</p>
+<p><strong>Sriman Dasa</strong></p>
+<p>Oh really this was developing on the side, just like my regular job as an
+engineer continued there and there, different companies. And religiously went to
+this temple that temple. In the beginning not too much into it, but more and
+more I got involved. But slowly I got into the service more and started cleaning
+pots and pans and mopping the floor and praying and those things developed as I
+continued with it.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>But how&rsquo;d you stop being an engineer?</p>
+<p><strong>Sriman Dasa</strong></p>
+<p>I did not stop, I just wanted to balance out work and life and slowly I decided
+sooner or later I should quit the job and go on my own business so I have more
+freedom. So I only worked in America as an engineer for 14 years of my life.
+After I quit I started my own real estate business and then had more time. Do
+whatever I want, just go to temple. So it worked out really good, good
+combination.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>Aren&rsquo;t you a landlord now?</p>
+<p><strong>Sriman Dasa</strong></p>
+<p>Yes, yes. Means I got rid of most of my property. Live more simple life. More
+I&rsquo;m more concentrating here (the temple) &amp; my sadhyna. Everyday I have to put
+spice at least 4 times in the sadhnya. Go out and feed the homeless people.
+People whoever come we offer them, we preach, we discuss.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>What does it mean to be Krishna of Consciousness?</p>
+<p><strong>Sriman Dasa</strong></p>
+<p>Krishna Consciousness means we all have a consciousness thinking what we think
+inside. Somebody have a consciousness for his family, somebody has a
+consciousness for his nation, somebody has a consciousness for himself, and
+Krishna consciousness means we think about Krishna, a supersoul inside. We are
+the soul, we are part of it. Clearly which is given in the Bhagavad Gita we try
+to develop in our consciousness so that we more become apart of it. If you say
+&ldquo;I&rsquo;m American&rdquo; &ndash; then as soon as you say &ldquo;I&rsquo;m American&rdquo; you feel that you&rsquo;re
+part of America. Even if you&rsquo;re born in Africa and you live in America,
+naturally your consciousness is in Africa. This is only one aspect of
+consciousness. So Krishna Consciousness is trying to relate yourself as a
+servant of Krishna.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>Does the religion believe in free will?</p>
+<p><strong>Sriman Dasa</strong></p>
+<p>Oh yeah, that&rsquo;s why we are here. We have a free will. That was the main
+fundamental situation we had that&rsquo;s why we wind up in this material world.
+Otherwise we live in a spritual world, with Krishna, serving Him. Take a family
+for example, you have four children. Krishna is your father. One guy say I&rsquo;m
+going to Africa, one guy say I&rsquo;m going to New York, and father is in Richmond.
+Time goes by, nobody wants to come and say &ldquo;hello&rdquo; to his father and they&rsquo;ve
+forgotton. One guy who was living in New York he keeps in touch with the
+Richmond father &amp; mother and once a while, weekend comes by, he says &ldquo;how can I
+help you?&rdquo; So he becomes a loving child. The other guys are not getting too much
+health. And the father says, &ldquo;let them&rdquo;. That&rsquo;s a free will example. We have
+forgotten our relation with our father. We have decided to go away from him.
+That&rsquo;s why we have ended up in this material world. We think we are happy, but
+no, if we go to our father we will be much happier. Like when the New York guy
+goes to his father in Richmond. Father is happy, mother is happy, they take care
+of each other. And that is our duty as Krishna of Consciousness, to go back to
+home and become servant of Krishna.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>We&rsquo;re in the age of Kali Yuga which means the furthest from Krishna, right?</p>
+<p><strong>Sriman Dasa</strong></p>
+<p>Not furthest, we are in the material world, but Kali Yuga is such a situation
+that is forgetfulness and mind is not intelligent. Two days back you probably
+can&rsquo;t remember what you ate. That&rsquo;s why this formula that is given, Hare Krishna
+mantra, is very powerful. It has a spiritual vibration, and when you sing that
+mantra, the mantra connects you directly to Krishna. It penetrates this planet
+and goes to the spiritual plane and to Krishna &ndash; that powerful. When we call
+our cellular phone to Africa, that is what&rsquo;s happening. Spatial frequency takes
+you to Africa. Same day when you chant Hare Krishna, it has a spatial frequency
+that connects you to Krishna.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>What does the mantra mean in English?</p>
+<p><strong>Sriman Dasa</strong></p>
+<p>It&rsquo;s a prayer.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>There is no translation?</p>
+<p><strong>Sriman Dasa</strong></p>
+<p>Maybe not, but you can say it&rsquo;s a quick prayer. That&rsquo;s it? Thank you for coming.</p>
+<p><strong>Leonard Francis Coogan</strong></p>
+<p>Yep, thanks for agreeing to this.</p>

+      <description>Leonard Francis Coogan&#xA;Hey everybody! In this episode I’ll be interviewing Chuck Wrenn. Chuck Wrenn is someone who had a heavy involvement in the Richmond music scene from the first psychedelic dance in VA, all the way up to High on the Hog. He’s lived in Richmond his whole life and has been part of some crazy scenes. I love Chuck. I’ve known Chuck since I was born and he helped raise me, so this is a very special interview to me.</description>

+      <description>Leonard Francis Coogan&#xA;In this episode I&amp;rsquo;ll be interviewing the head of the ISKON of Virginia, Sriman Dasa. ISKON stands for International Society for Krishna Consciousness, which is the organization that leads the Hare Krishna movement. I&amp;rsquo;ve known Sriman since the summer of &amp;lsquo;22 when I started organizing shows at the heavily-affiliated Govinda restaurant directly across from the ISKON temple.&#xA;Leonard Francis Coogan&#xA;When was the ISKON of VA founded?</description>

+
+Three hundred and forty-eight years, six months, and nineteen days ago
+to-day, the Parisians awoke to the sound of all the bells in the triple
+circuit of the city, the university, and the town ringing a full peal.
+
+The sixth of January, 1482, is not, however, a day of which history has
+preserved the memory. There was nothing notable in the event which thus
+set the bells and the bourgeois of Paris in a ferment from early morning.
+It was neither an assault by the Picards nor the Burgundians, nor a hunt
+led along in procession, nor a revolt of scholars in the town of Laas, nor
+an entry of “our much dread lord, monsieur the king,” nor even a pretty
+hanging of male and female thieves by the courts of Paris. Neither was it
+the arrival, so frequent in the fifteenth century, of some plumed and
+bedizened embassy. It was barely two days since the last cavalcade of that
+nature, that of the Flemish ambassadors charged with concluding the
+marriage between the dauphin and Marguerite of Flanders, had made its
+entry into Paris, to the great annoyance of M. le Cardinal de Bourbon,
+who, for the sake of pleasing the king, had been obliged to assume an
+amiable mien towards this whole rustic rabble of Flemish burgomasters, and
+to regale them at his Hôtel de Bourbon, with a very “pretty morality,
+allegorical satire, and farce,” while a driving rain drenched the
+magnificent tapestries at his door.
+
+What put the “whole population of Paris in commotion,” as Jehan de Troyes
+expresses it, on the sixth of January, was the double solemnity, united
+from time immemorial, of the Epiphany and the Feast of Fools.
+
+On that day, there was to be a bonfire on the Place de Grève, a maypole at
+the Chapelle de Braque, and a mystery at the Palais de Justice. It had
+been cried, to the sound of the trumpet, the preceding evening at all the
+cross roads, by the provost’s men, clad in handsome, short, sleeveless
+coats of violet camelot, with large white crosses upon their breasts.
+
+So the crowd of citizens, male and female, having closed their houses and
+shops, thronged from every direction, at early morn, towards some one of
+the three spots designated.
+
+Each had made his choice; one, the bonfire; another, the maypole; another,
+the mystery play. It must be stated, in honor of the good sense of the
+loungers of Paris, that the greater part of this crowd directed their
+steps towards the bonfire, which was quite in season, or towards the
+mystery play, which was to be presented in the grand hall of the Palais de
+Justice (the courts of law), which was well roofed and walled; and that
+the curious left the poor, scantily flowered maypole to shiver all alone
+beneath the sky of January, in the cemetery of the Chapel of Braque.
+
+The populace thronged the avenues of the law courts in particular, because
+they knew that the Flemish ambassadors, who had arrived two days
+previously, intended to be present at the representation of the mystery,
+and at the election of the Pope of the Fools, which was also to take place
+in the grand hall.
+
+It was no easy matter on that day, to force one’s way into that grand
+hall, although it was then reputed to be the largest covered enclosure in
+the world (it is true that Sauval had not yet measured the grand hall of
+the Château of Montargis). The palace place, encumbered with people,
+offered to the curious gazers at the windows the aspect of a sea; into
+which five or six streets, like so many mouths of rivers, discharged every
+moment fresh floods of heads. The waves of this crowd, augmented
+incessantly, dashed against the angles of the houses which projected here
+and there, like so many promontories, into the irregular basin of the
+place. In the centre of the lofty Gothic* façade of the palace, the grand
+staircase, incessantly ascended and descended by a double current, which,
+after parting on the intermediate landing-place, flowed in broad waves
+along its lateral slopes,—the grand staircase, I say, trickled
+incessantly into the place, like a cascade into a lake. The cries, the
+laughter, the trampling of those thousands of feet, produced a great noise
+and a great clamor. From time to time, this noise and clamor redoubled;
+the current which drove the crowd towards the grand staircase flowed
+backwards, became troubled, formed whirlpools. This was produced by the
+buffet of an archer, or the horse of one of the provost’s sergeants, which
+kicked to restore order; an admirable tradition which the provostship has
+bequeathed to the constablery, the constablery to the _maréchaussée_,
+the _maréchaussée_ to our _gendarmeri_ of Paris.

+We are delighted to be able to inform the reader, that during the whole of
+this scene, Gringoire and his piece had stood firm. His actors, spurred on
+by him, had not ceased to spout his comedy, and he had not ceased to
+listen to it. He had made up his mind about the tumult, and was determined
+to proceed to the end, not giving up the hope of a return of attention on
+the part of the public. This gleam of hope acquired fresh life, when he
+saw Quasimodo, Coppenole, and the deafening escort of the pope of the
+procession of fools quit the hall amid great uproar. The throng rushed
+eagerly after them. “Good,” he said to himself, “there go all the
+mischief-makers.” Unfortunately, all the mischief-makers constituted the
+entire audience. In the twinkling of an eye, the grand hall was empty.
+
+To tell the truth, a few spectators still remained, some scattered, others
+in groups around the pillars, women, old men, or children, who had had
+enough of the uproar and tumult. Some scholars were still perched astride
+of the window-sills, engaged in gazing into the Place.
+
+“Well,” thought Gringoire, “here are still as many as are required to hear
+the end of my mystery. They are few in number, but it is a choice
+audience, a lettered audience.”
+
+An instant later, a symphony which had been intended to produce the
+greatest effect on the arrival of the Virgin, was lacking. Gringoire
+perceived that his music had been carried off by the procession of the
+Pope of the Fools. “Skip it,” said he, stoically.
+
+He approached a group of bourgeois, who seemed to him to be discussing his
+piece. This is the fragment of conversation which he caught,—
+
+“You know, Master Cheneteau, the Hôtel de Navarre, which belonged to
+Monsieur de Nemours?”
+
+“Yes, opposite the Chapelle de Braque.”
+
+“Well, the treasury has just let it to Guillaume Alixandre, historian, for
+six hivres, eight sols, parisian, a year.”
+
+“How rents are going up!”
+
+“Come,” said Gringoire to himself, with a sigh, “the others are
+listening.”
+
+“Comrades,” suddenly shouted one of the young scamps from the window, “La
+Esmeralda! La Esmeralda in the Place!”
+
+This word produced a magical effect. Every one who was left in the hall
+flew to the windows, climbing the walls in order to see, and repeating,
+“La Esmeralda! La Esmeralda?” At the same time, a great sound of applause
+was heard from without.
+
+“What’s the meaning of this, of the Esmeralda?” said Gringoire, wringing
+his hands in despair. “Ah, good heavens! it seems to be the turn of the
+windows now.”
+
+He returned towards the marble table, and saw that the representation had
+been interrupted. It was precisely at the instant when Jupiter should have
+appeared with his thunder. But Jupiter was standing motionless at the foot
+of the stage.
+
+“Michel Giborne!” cried the irritated poet, “what are you doing there? Is
+that your part? Come up!”
+
+“Alas!” said Jupiter, “a scholar has just seized the ladder.”
+
+Gringoire looked. It was but too true. All communication between his plot
+and its solution was intercepted.
+
+“The rascal,” he murmured. “And why did he take that ladder?”
+
+“In order to go and see the Esmeralda,” replied Jupiter piteously. “He
+said, ‘Come, here’s a ladder that’s of no use!’ and he took it.”
+
+This was the last blow. Gringoire received it with resignation.
+
+“May the devil fly away with you!” he said to the comedian, “and if I get
+my pay, you shall receive yours.”
+
+Then he beat a retreat, with drooping head, but the last in the field,
+like a general who has fought well.
+
+And as he descended the winding stairs of the courts: “A fine rabble of
+asses and dolts these Parisians!” he muttered between his teeth; “they
+come to hear a mystery and don’t listen to it at all! They are engrossed
+by every one, by Chopin Trouillefou, by the cardinal, by Coppenole, by
+Quasimodo, by the devil! but by Madame the Virgin Mary, not at all. If I
+had known, I’d have given you Virgin Mary; you ninnies! And I! to come to
+see faces and behold only backs! to be a poet, and to reap the success of
+an apothecary! It is true that Homerus begged through the Greek towns, and
+that Naso died in exile among the Muscovites. But may the devil flay me if
+I understand what they mean with their Esmeralda! What is that word, in
+the first place?—‘tis Egyptian!”

+
+You have a to-do list that scrolls on for days. You are managing multiple projects, getting lots of email and messages on different messaging systems, managing finances and personal health habits and so much more.
+
+It all keeps piling up, and it can feel overwhelming.
+
+How do you keep up with it all? How do you find focus and peace and get stuff accomplished when you have too much on your plate?
+
+In this primer, I’ll look at some key strategies and tactics for taking on an overloaded life with an open heart, lots of energy, and a smile on your face.
+
+## The First Step: Triage
+
+Whether you’re just starting your day, or you’re in the middle of the chaos and just need to find some sanity … the first step is to get into triage mode.
+
+Triage, as you probably know, is sorting through the chaos to prioritize: what needs to be done now, what needs to be done today, what needs to be done this week, and what can wait? You’re looking at urgency, but also what’s meaningful and important.
+
+Here’s what you might do:
+
+* Pick out the things that need to be done today. Start a Short List for things you’re going to do today. That might be important tasks for big projects, urgent tasks that could result in damage if you don’t act, smaller admin tasks that you really should take care of today, and responding to important messages. I would recommend being ruthless and cutting out as much as you can, having just 5 things on your plate if that’s at all possible. Not everything needs to be done today, and not every email needs to be responded to.
+* Push some things to tomorrow and the rest of the week. If you have deadlines that can be pushed back (or renegotiated), do that. Spread the work out over the week, even into next week. What needs to be done tomorrow? What can wait a day or two longer?
+* Eliminate what you can. That might mean just not replying to some messages that aren’t that important and don’t really require a reply. It might mean telling some people that you can’t take on this project after all, or that you need to get out of the commitment that you said you’d do. Yes, this is uncomfortable. For now, just put them on a list called, “To Not Do,” and plan to figure out how to get out of them later.
+
+OK, you have some breathing room and a manageable list now! Let’s shrink that down even further and just pick one thing.
+
+## Next: Focus on One Thing
+
+With a lot on your plate, it’s hard to pick one thing to focus on. But that’s exactly what I’m going to ask you to do.
+
+Pick one thing, and give it your focus. Yes, there are a lot of other things you can focus on. Yes, they’re stressing you out and making it hard to focus. But think about it this way: if you allow it all to be in your head all the time, that will always be your mode of being. You’ll always be thinking about everything, stressing out about it all, with a frazzled mind … unless you start shifting.
+
+The shift:
+
+* Pick something to focus on. Look at the triaged list from the first section … if you have 5-6 things on this Short List, you can assess whether there’s any super urgent, time-sensitive things you need to take care of. If there are, pick one of them. If not, pick the most important one — probably the one you have been putting off doing.
+* Clear everything else away. Just for a little bit. Close all browser tabs, turn off notifications, close open applications, put your phone away.
+* Put that one task before you, and allow yourself to be with it completely. Pour yourself into it. Think of it as a practice, of letting go (of everything else), of focus, of radical simplicity.
+
+When you’re done (or after 15-20 minutes have gone by at least), you can switch to something else. But don’t allow yourself to switch until then.
+
+By closing off all exits, by choosing one thing, by giving yourself completely to that thing … you’re now in a different mode that isn’t so stressful or spread thin. You’ve started a shift that will lead to focus and sanity.
+
+## Third: Schedule Time to Simplify
+
+Remember the To Not Do list above? Schedule some time this week to start reducing your projects, saying no to people, getting out of commitments, crossing stuff off your task list … so that you can have some sanity back.
+
+There are lots of little things that you’ve said “yes” to that you probably shouldn’t have. That’s why you’re overloaded. Protect your more important work, and your time off, and your peace of mind, by saying “no” to things that aren’t as important.
+
+Schedule the time to simplify — you don’t have to do it today, but sometime soon — and you can then not have to worry about the things on your To Not Do list until then.
+
+## Fourth: Practice Mindful Focus
+
+Go through the rest of the day with an attitude of “mindful focus.” That means that you are doing one thing at a time, being as present as you can, switching as little as you can.
+
+Think of it as a settling of the mind. A new mode of being. A mindfulness practice (which means you won’t be perfect at it).
+
+As you practice mindful focus, you’ll learn to practice doing things with an open heart, with curiosity and gratitude, and even joy. Try these one at a time as you get to do each task on your Short List.
+
+You’ll find that you’re not so overloaded, but that each task is just perfect for that moment. And that’s a completely new relationship with the work that you do, and a new relationship with life.

+Lid est laborum et dolorum fuga, This is [an example](http://example.com/ "Title") inline link. Et harum quidem rerum facilis, **This is bold** and *emphasis* cumque nihilse impedit quo minus id quod amets untra dolor amet sad. While this is `code block()` and following is a `pre` tag
+
+	print 'this is pre tag'
+
+Following is the syntax highlighted code block
+
+```go

+	cookie, err := rd.Cookie(name)
+	if err != nil {

+	wr := w.(http.ResponseWriter)
+	http.SetCookie(wr, cookie)
+	return nil
