The Musical Culture of Route 66
In collaboration with my father – the person who inspired my passion for both photography and music – I would like to travel Route 66, documenting the range of American musical culture and creating a project to benefit music education.
My father's interest in photography was what inspired me to pursue it professionally, so now as I embark on my career I would love to do an amazing assignment in collaboration with the man who started it all. We have very different styles and approaches, however one common thread is our deep passion for music. Therefore, our dream assignment would be to travel across the U.S. via historic Route 66 to document the broad range of American musical culture as represented by the communities along the way.
We would take the ultimate road trip from Chicago to Los Angeles, following the exact (when possible) or sometimes approximate route of the original highway. Along the way, we will tap into the local musical culture of the cities through which we pass and chart their cultural evolution by looking at both historical and current musical movements. Our path will take us from Blues to Punk; Lollapalooza to Rocklahoma; Buddy Holly to The Flaming Lips. We will examine the unique heritage of each stop by documenting local bands (some of which might also be national/international acts), radio stations (independent ones with unique character), venues (from the historic to the hip), festivals large and small, and local music stores (again independent dealers with unique character).
The results will be shared in three parts:
1) a blog which will report our progress in real-time as we work our way from Lake Michigan to the Pacific. It will include videos, personal anecdotes, links to some of the people and places we encounter along our adventures, and our personal playlists for each leg of the tour;
2) a printed coffee-table book of the images from our journey;
3) a gallery show of selected prints to celebrate the launch of the book and raise awareness of the beneficiary. The show will travel to some of the cities featured in the book, thus bringing the final product back to share with and celebrate the participants in each community.
Since my father is an educator by profession, I'd like this project to benefit music education. Therefore the sales from the printed book and gallery shows would benefit the Guitar Center Music Foundation, which helps to sustain music education in communities throughout the U.S. To quote their website:
“The Guitar Center Music Foundation believes that music participation is an essential element in the fabric of an enduring society. Our mission is to have the benefits of making music available to everyone in the communities in which we serve, to promote its importance through education and media initiatives, and to provide financial and in-kind resources in collaboration with other organizations to achieve our common goal.”
Please vote for this project and help us make this dream assignment a reality. Thank you for your consideration.

I look forward to seeing this develop. My oldest, Liam, at 7 has begun his musical career with his electric guitar and will keep an eye on your blog also (with parental guidance of course!)
Simply loving it.....:)

In our enlightened culture, we so freely cut cutural activities in our educational systems, thinking it won't REALLY have any effect. We forget that we are not developing the creative talent of the next generation.
I wish you all the best in your efforts to make this wonderful endeavor a REALITY!!
I don't know who would have more fun? dad or daughter? And it's for a great cause!!! Good luck and looking forward to the book.

AND KEEP THOSE VOTES COMING! HAVE I MENTIONED THAT YOU ROCK???
Great idea. Tell us about your musical interests and how important it is to keep music education thriving in the schools.
As a father of two little girls, I can see myself is such a journey is priceless!
To research and document from 'eyes-with-passion' and also add support for music, one should not pass-up!
A father who has dedicated his profession to education, is walking the walk!
I vote, so let's do it!
hope i get extra credit, mr. labarge :P (1st period)

Good Luck, what awesome idea.
that whole change the end of ur email thing DOESNT work... a 2nd account can be made, but the vote wont count because it says somebody with the same email already voted, so the system disregarded the vote. i noticed it after i entered the comment. dont waste ur time trying to do what i did.
-SRB

Good luck, Mr. Labarge & co. As a guitarist/bassist/mandolinist/ukulelist/music lover, I really like this idea and want dibs on the book when it comes out!

OH, I do mean packing for the Route 66 Trip, not anything else!!!
(Mrs. LaBarge)
It's a great experience to have, music to me is important to me since I'm a young musician, and it's more than just entertainment to me. and HI MR. Labarge!! and I hope you get to top 20s Labarge's daughter!!

Denny - glad you gave me the opportunity to vote - I'm a big Rolling Stones fan, and when I saw your daughter's assignment idea, it made me think of the Stones' cover version of "Route 66" on their first album if I remember correctly. Great stuff and enjoy the trip - John Buchholz
I love this. The personal nature is what sells it for me - the proximity of home and the chance to do this with your father would be magnificent. You have my vote.
hope you win -- it's a great idea! Melanie (DG alum)
great idea! looks awesome!!
This is a really good idea.
It sounds fun.
Good luck!!
Nicole Ramos
I love that idea I hope you win the chance.
This is such a powerful idea. Combining multiple artforms - music and photography. And, considering the plight of music programs in the schools, the proceeds from your efforts couldn't go to a better cause.
Growing up I always enjoyed playing music in the home. Let's keep it alive in the schools.
This is a great cause, good luck with your project!
-David (P3 Jackson)
Much luck to Mr.Labarge!!!! Hope you get ranked in the 20's this week!!!!

A clever combination of two important American cultural aspects: the spirit of personal mobility and exploration as portrayed by the classic American highway Route 66, and the spirit of American language and personality as portrayed by its music. Book is sure to be a best-seller.
What a wonderful idea. Best of luck to the two of you.
Your dream assignment is well thought out, realistic, and likely to produce some wildly unique photos. My fingers are crossed for you and your father.
Artists House Music just tweeted about us - yeah!
"Interesting music journalism idea from @labargephoto tinyurl.com/dldm89 - remember the power of having social purpose behind your work!"
Follow them @artistshouse if you're on Twitter.

Awesome project! You've got to win AND looks like your keeping the cash in the states. Way to go!
I agree with Gidget! Good luck!
GOOD LUCK , HOPE YOUR DREAM COME TRUE
Here's one more vote! Looking forward to traveling along with you via e-mails.
Good luck! This is an awesome idea.
this assignment seems very intriguing. i've always loved music and your trip seems to be the perfect thing to show the united states how much music has influenced us and how if we dont preserve the past it will soon die.
hope you have a great trip and i would love to be kept updated.
Here's one more vote for such a wonderful idea! I am a music lover as well!
Good luck!!!
Agreeing with Gidget. Although there are so many wonderful "dreams" I like the fact that this one is helping our economy by spending and donating here in the US.
I can see this becoming a whole series of coffee table books.
Good luck. Keep in touch!
AWESOME IDEA WHAT'S BETTER THAN MUSIC ? MUSIC AND FAMILY
Well, the Bartons have been heard! Good luck!
Just as cool as riding a COLTS bus through West Side....
Great Idea! I don't know anything that could beat music, history and travel
Good Luck!
Love it! My project is over at http://www.nameyourdreamassignment.com/the-ideas/Lacey/global-artist-initiative/ I'd like to keep in touch and be of any assistance of your projects down the road. You can find me at http://laceylampe.artlogsites.com/
This is ORIGINAL, REALISTIC and COST EFFICIENT!! Love it!!
Out of the top 20, your idea stood out to me due to its creative and original nature.
Finally got my vote in. I had to use a different email. Good luck.
I found a great site for those people who are wary of giving out their normal email address when voting. When registering have them put their email address as ______@mailinator.com.
Then, go to mailinator.com and type in what they put in the blank to access the temporary email account it will automatically create. That's what I've been doing with my family.

je ne suis pas d'etats unis mais mon ami me dit que vous allons rechercher le musique et je crois que c'est un chose incroyable
je veux que vous gagnez
- Ami Francais
Andie, this is such a wonderful idea. It's especially refreshing, given the fun nature of the photos you're sure to capture and the fact that you'll be featuring local businesses like the record stores you mentioned. This is what we need in these depressing times - to celebrate the American spirit!
Go go go! I'm getting everybody in the family to vote. The end is so close!
July told me about your project. How unique. You've got my support for sure.
Go Andrea!
Three cheers for team Labarge!
As a music teacher your idea really speaks to me. A stellar proposal.
My mom's a big fan of your work. Keep it up.
Well that's all of us Gastons. Our family is heading to sleep now. We hope to wake up and see that the most original, well thought out, well intentioned plan is still in the top twenty.
this idea sounds impressive
i really acknowledge the fact that you want to bring in our youth to experience a more lighter view of american history
This sounds like a fabulous Father/Daughter experience. And what a great opportunity to explore some vanishing American culture!
