Wednesday, February 20, 2019 The Nugget Newspaper, Sisters, Oregon 21 Belfry brings bluegrass and blues to Sisters Frank Solivan & Dirty Kitchen returns to Sisters at 7 p.m. Thursday, March 7, for a show at The Belfry, 302 E. Main Ave. The show, spon- sored by Sisters Folk Festival and Preston Thompson Guitars, also features the powerhouse duo of Rob Ickes & Trey Hensley. The showcase evening of bluegrass, country, blues and Western swing starts with a Thomspon Guitars demonstration. Since Frank Solivan left the cold climes of Alaska for the bluegrass hotbed of Washington, D.C., he9s built a reputation as a monster mandolinist 4 and become a major festival attraction with his band, Dirty Kitchen. Solivan, with banjoist Mike Munford, 2013 IBMA Banjo Player of the Year, award- winning guitarist Chris BIRDS: Hard to manage stand-replacing fires in forest Continued from page 17 broadleaf species, shrubs and herbs as well as young coni- fers, and are important habi- tats for some bird species. Bird species associated with these habitats that are show- ing ongoing declines include the rufous hummingbird, wil- low flycatcher and orange- crowned warbler. For most of these species, however, in contrast to birds of older forests, the declines have not gotten worse. Betts said that before launching into efforts to cre- ate these diverse early-seral ecosystems, more informa- tion is needed regarding how much of it there might have been historically in differ- ent areas, and how sensitive the associated species are to reduced habitat. Phalan emphasizes the findings show that efforts to maintain and restore old- growth forests are working, but that it9s harder to prevent stand-replacing fires than to manage logging. <It was anticipated in the plan that species declines might take decades to arrest,= he said. <It was surprising, though, to learn that species associated with older forests continued to decline much faster than those in early seral. We argue that, because forest regeneration is an inherently slow process, and because fires are going to become more frequent in most forest types, forest plans should con- tinue to emphasize conserva- tion of old-growth habitats.= nugget_2019-02-20.indd 21 Luquette and bassist Jeremy Middleton, simmer a blue- grass/newgrass stew from instrumental, vocal and song- writing skills so hot, they were named IBMA9s 2016 Instrumental Group of the Year.
