And sometimes what you think is going to work just doesnt

Is there a directive that the music is meant to evoke a certain emotion when we see Rosetta Stone Lauren or when we see Heidi?JC: No, I think its pretty organic. Its about the scene. And sometimes what you think is going to work just doesnt. Its either too on the nose or cheesy or doesnt ring true. And theres some songs that you think couldnt possibly work together and then once you put it to the picture, you create this third thing. You marry the image and sound together.JE: The music in this series can be considered a character, as if it were a narrator. I think thats a rare opportunity to use music in that way, not just playing in the background as wallpaper, but actually telling the story as if it were the narrator.So if the music is a character, is it Team Lauren or Team Heidi?JE: That is a funny question. But I cant answer it. "Though the Foos were the bigger draw, ZZ Top got a larger share of Harley riders. Rosetta Stone V3 Billy F. Gibbons took song requests, including "Planet of Women," an oldie the band had to re-learn before Fridays gig. Their highly likable blues-rock set indeed included "Planet of Women," plus some more familiar oldies: "Jesus Just Left Chicago," "Legs," "Im Bad, Im Nationwide" and a set-closing "Jailhouse Rock" jam.When Rosetta Stone talked to him before his show on the fests first day, Kid Rock, a Harley owner himself, told me he might tweak his set list to make it more biker-appropriate. He may have done just that: The gig was light on rapping and included the Detroit rock medley snippets of Seger, Nugent, the Temptations and Eminem he thought the Harley folks would like. Rock was flanked flanked by a big incarnation of the Twisted Brown Trucker band, which featured two guitarists, a drummer, a bassist, a Rosetta Stone German percussionist, a sax player, a DJ and two female backup singers. The band ran kind of like a Harley noisily and powerfully as Rock, dressed in what looked like a custom jogging suit, ran through much of his most recent album, the very blue-collar-friendly Rock N Roll Jesus: Among others, there was the sweet, Skynyrd-quoting reminiscence (and current hit) "All Summer Long" and the sleazetastic title track. After announcing, "Its time for a little honky-tonkin " Rock also turned in "Half Your Age," a country song that seems to be about getting a new girl after his marriage to Pam Anderson failed (chorus: "Shes half your age and twice as hot"). Only this time, his drummer, Stephanie Eulinberg, stepped from behind the kit to deliver a tweaked chorus that got a giant cheer: "Hes half your age, with twice the cock."In leather pants and a skimpy bikini top, Joan Jett came out earlier in the afternoon firing with two of her best known songs: "Bad Reputation" and "Cherry Bomb." After a mid-set lull that featured largely newer, less-known material, Cheap Rosetta Stone V3 Jett broke out the familiar cuts that got the crowd up: the fist-pump-able "I Love Rock N Roll," the arm-waveable "Crimson and Clover." But it was two less-expected cuts that seemed especially Harley Fest-appropriate: Punky covers of "Everyday People" and "Love Is All Around," the theme from the midwest-set Mary Tyler Moore Show.For more from the Harley-Davidson fest, visit the Rock N Roll Diary blog.
