Goldberg, Yes Return

By David J. Spatz

I

magine your great-grandmother dropping the F-bomb.

Having a hard time wrapping your head around that? Now imagine her dropping it, oh, about 50 times — in one hour.

That’s what an audience can expect Saturday night, April 5, when the world’s newest celebrity great-grandmom, Whoopi Goldberg, takes the stage at Revel’s Ovation Hall.

Goldberg, 58, became a great-grandmother on March 15 when her granddaughter, Amarah Dean, 25, gave birth to a baby girl named Charlie Rose. The actress, comedian and cohost of ABC’s daytime talker The View made what she called the “crazy announcement” on the show two days later while displaying a picture of the newborn and beaming with pride.

Sounds like the Whoopster is singing a different song about becoming a great-grandmother than she was just a few years ago.

In an interview with the London Daily Mail, the Oscarwinning actress — whose three grandchildren then ranged in age from 10 to 19 — made it clear she was in no rush to add another branch to her family tree.

“I accepted the grandmother thing in my 30s, but greatgrandchildren I’m not doing!” said Goldberg, who became a mother at 17 and a grandmother at 34 when her daughter Alexandrea gave birth to Amarah, who in turn made Goldberg a great-grandmother.

“I made it clear that should [Amarah] decide that was a good possibility that I would yank her tubes out with my bare hands,” Goldberg joked in 2009.

In her return to stand-up in Atlantic City, it’s difficult to predict what topics the observational comedian will riff on.

She usually feels out the audience during her first few minutes on stage, then tailors the material to fit the crowd.

During her last appearance here, topics included aging, menopause, growing up in the 1960s, smoking pot, airline travel and, of course, the hard-core Democrat’s view on politics. *** Nine legends from the popular music world will be inducted in the Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame on April 10. The progressive rock band Yes won’t be one of them. But the prog rock pioneers came closer than they ever did; they were at least nominated for the honor but failed to win election to the music shrine.

Yes, which has been together, in one form or another, since 1968, has been eligible for the rock hall since 1994. But — like most other progressive rock bands — they’ve been snubbed for the past 20 years. Rumors abound that Rolling Stone magazine publisher Jan Wenner — the co-founder of the R&R HOF — is not a fan of progressive rock.

Yes is keeping good company by not being in the hall. The Moody Blues, who are celebrating their 50th anniversary in the music business, have been ignored by the rock hall. Other innovative and best-selling bands like Chicago, which has amassed enough gold and platinum records to start their own precious metals mint since it was formed in 1967, have also gotten the cold shoulder.

But Chris Squire, a founding member of Yes and the band’s bass player, sounded almost happy that the band was at least nominated. That’s more than most prog rock bands have gotten.

“It doesn’t bother me at all,” Squire said. “It’s been such a long time where we weren’t even nominated so we didn’t lose

any sleep over it.”

Yes is currently on tour picking up where they left off last year. If their Friday night gig in Borgata’s Event Center follows form, they’ll be doing something they started doing only recently: Performing three of their biggest albums — The Yes Album, Close to the Edge and Going for the One — in their entireties. But not in chronological order, Squire said.

Last year’s tour was a learning experience for Yes, he explained.

“We discovered … that the best order to do the show is do Close to the Edge first in its entirety, then Going for the One and wrap it up with The Yes Album,” Squire told Lithium Magazine two weeks ago. “And that really does make sense, because the songs on The Yes Album are more rockier than Going for the One, which is more of a deep moody album and it fits well in the mid-set position. We seem to have a really good routine going with the show now and it’s going over really well,” he said, adding that the choice of albums to play was made a couple of years ago.”

The one song in the entire evening that won’t be from those three albums will be their encore. Yes will bring the curtain down with “Roundabout,” their best-known single from their 1971 album Fragile.

Other than “Owner of a Lonely Heart,” which hit number one in 1983, “Roundabout” was the only Yes single to crack the Top 20. ■

THE BIG SPRING CRAFT SHOW

inanced through a Casino Reinvestment Development Authority (CRDA) Tourism District fund reservation, improvements and upgrades have begun on the façades of three buildings on the 1600 block of Atlantic Avenue. This is first of several blocks to receive a fresh new look and give Atlantic City’s busy main street a more inviting ambiance and clean, modern feel. The CRDA partnered with Main Street Atlantic City (mainstreetacnj.org) to identify property owners and design strategies for this initiative. The CRDA also partnered with the Atlantic County Improvement Authority (atlanticcountyimprovementauthority.org) to help participating businesses reconstruct or renovate residential units above their stores to provide workforce housing opportunities within the city’s Downtown area. “Many elements of the Master Plan are now being realized, and the Atlantic Avenue façade program will help achieve our goals of creating a more attractive and pedestrian-friendly city, building on the strength of our midtown to improve existing business,” says CRDA chairman James Kehoe. Adds CRDA executive director John Palmieri, “We owe a lot to our Board of Directors for their support of Atlantic Avenue’s distinctive role as the shopping district for many local residents. The level of investment in Atlantic City continues to grow and the city continues to improve for both visitors and residents.” Current A.C. construction projects funded

by CRDA investments include an 86,000-square-foot Bass Pro Shops store at Tanger Outlets the Walk, slated to open in early 2015; Atlantic Cape Community College’s City Campus expansion, which is nearing completion; an all-new 200,000-squarefoot conference center at Harrah’s; a 200-foot-high observation wheel on the Steel Pier that can operate year round; and developer Bruce Toll’s BET Investments’ retail development in front of Boardwalk Hall’s West Hall, which will begin construction this spring. The Tropicana has requested CRDA funding for a $35 million capital improvement to the property’s Boardwalk façade, addition of retail areas, a two-story fitness center, and North Tower hotel renovations. Improvements that the CRDA helped fund in 2013 included the Margaritaville complex at Resorts and The Wave Arts Garage on Mississippi Avenue.

The CRDA also helped negotiate and fund the return of the Miss America Pageant to A.C. in 2013.

Mays Landing By Jeff Schwachter

T

he annual New Orleans Jazz Brunch, which for many years took place on Garden Pier, will be held on Sunday, April 6, at Careme’s Gourmet Restaurant at the Atlantic Cape Community College, Mays Landing Campus. Honoring Charlotte Carney, Shellee Milgram and the John Henry (Pop) Lloyd Committee, represented by Michael Everett, the New Jersey Shore Arts Association with Pattie Harris’ Atlantic City Dance Theatre, will hold the annual spring event (starting at 11:30am) to raise awareness of the need to bring the arts to the Atlantic City community and the Atlantic City community to the arts. “At our brunch we honor individuals who are artists and have given to the community,” said Amy Sosnov, president of the association.

Proceeds from the brunch ($40 per ticket) go to developing art classes at Our Lady Star of the Sea, sponsoring a student trip to the American Swedish Historical Museum, providing scholarships to the Ventnor Art Center Summer Program and promoting the Pattie Harris Atlantic City Dance Theater Incubator for Talented Youth on the Boardwalk each summer.

Death Vessel ‘Island Intervals’ (Sub Pop)

P

rovidence, Rhode Islandbased singer-songwriter Joel Thibodeau has been making albums under the name Death Vessel since 2005’s acclaimed Stay Close. Death Vessel’s third album, Island Intervals,, out now on Sub Pop, is a gloriously produced, chilling and experimental collection of sad but beautiful songs, recorded in Reykjavik, Iceland. Helping out here are icy collaborators Alex Somers (Sigur Rós ) and Samuli Kosminen (Múm) as well as southern New Jersey’s Pete Donnelly (NRBQ, The Figgs, Graham Parker). There are more electronica elements employed here than on DV’s previous albums, but Thibodeau has matured as a music maker in the six years since Death Vessel’s album. Thibodeau’s higher than usual voice — think Neil Young singing falsetto with his nuts chopped off — may take getting used to, but his new songs will melt over your soul, creating a lush soundtrack with powerful melodies and dreamy instrumentation. Dig the pump organ and metallophone played by Donnelly on the first track, “Ejecta.”

immy Robinson, a loyal 14-year member of Boardwalk Hall and the Atlantic City Convention Center’s public safety team had a devastating fire at his home on Feb. 21. Timmy and his wife, Sharon, both residents of Atlantic City’s Venice Park section, lost everything — all of their belongings. Fortunately, they are both doing OK after fleeing the fire safely, but the couple has a long road back.

The Global Spectrum/Boardwalk Hall/Convention Center famly will hold a benefit for the Robinsons on Tuesday, April 8, at 5pm, at Atlantic City’s Ducktown Tavern (2400 Atlantic Ave.). Tickets are $10 and include a food buffet, Happy-hour cash bar, silent auction, and chance to win door prizes. “Timmy is one of the good ones,” says Kara Cermanski, senior marketing manager for Boardwalk Hall and the Atlantic City Convention Center. “We really want to help him and his wife any way that we can.” Sharon is a 14-year employee at Spring Villages in Galloway. For donations or to purchase tickets, contact Cermanski at kcermanski@global-sprectrum.com or 348-7021. You can also contact Marie Remer at mremer@global-spectrum.com or 348-7535. see more online @

Representing KY & the Curb: Harvey Mason The drummer extraordinaire and AC High graduate talks about his new album ‘Chameleon,’ and cutting his teeth as a jazz musician in Atlantic City. By Eugene Holley Jr. • feedback@acweekly.com

18

APRIL 3-6, 2014 • ATLANTIC CITY WEEKLY

C

hameleon is an apt nickname for the Atlantic City-born drummer/bandleader Harvey Mason.

For four decades he’s played on nearly 1,500 recordings as a sideman with everybody from James Brown, Barbra Streisand and Beyoncé, to Frank Sinatra, Santana, Gil Scott-Heron and Michael Jackson. He co-founded the smooth jazz combo Fourplay with Bob James in 1990. And he was an original member of Herbie Hancock’s groundbreaking Head Hunters band, co-writing its 1973 soul-jazz-fusion hit, “Chameleon,” which is also the name of Mason’s touring band, and the title of his new album.

“Every time I play my instrument I feel like I’m getting better, whether I’m playing a polka, or a country western song or a Latin song,” Mason says via telephone from his Los Angeles home.

“I’m still growing.”

Chameleon, out April 29 on Concord Records, features impassioned and intelligent, cutting-edge arrangements of some seminal ’70s soul-jazz-classics by Quincy Jones, Patrice Rushen, Bobby Hutcherson, Donald Byrd and Grover Washington Jr. Supported by fellow Head Hunters bassist Paul Jackson and percussionist Bill Summers, Mason is also joined on the new album by an impressive bevy of young jazz lions: trumpeter Christian Scott, keyboardist Kris Bowers, bassist Ben Williams [they’re members of an all-star ensemble, The Next Collective], trombonist/vocalist Corey “CK” King, saxophonists Kamasi Washington and Ben Wendel, vocalist Chris Turner and keyboardist/electronica produc-

facebook.com/ACWeekly @acweekly

“They thought I sold out because I played R&B, or I made this kind of record. [But] later they saw that I was a regular guy, and didn’t have an attitude; especially when they realized I came out of Atlantic City.” er Mark de Clive.

Washington’s “Black Frost” swings with anthemic, processional pulsations while Hutcherson’s “Montara” is a harmonically hypnotic mid-tempo tone poem.

The seaside impressionism of Rushen’s moody masterpiece “Before the Dawn” is contrasted by the proto-quiet storm ballad “If I Ever Lose This Heaven.” Elsewhere on Chameleon, “Either Way” is a melodically moving Mason selection, which originally appeared on his 1977 album, Funk in a Mason Jar, reprised on pianist/arranger David Grusin’s 1979 CD Mountain Dance, and later sampled on “Everyday Struggle”

by Notorious B.I.G. The late Donald Byrd’s “Places and Spaces” is taken to new soaring and streamlined Olympian heights.

The title track features Head Hunters alumni Jackson and Summers, the lat-

ter who drops some sonic science with his hinedewho Pygmy-inspired tuned-bottle, vocal percussion.

“I wanted the sound he used on the intro of ‘Watermelon Man,’” Mason says. “Since my band is called Chameleon, I wanted to include that track, and re-do the song and make it different, with Bill’s intro and outro.

It’s a fresh rendition of the tune.”

Mason easily swings to a multitude of sonic shadings and moods and grooves, thanks to his debt to the jazz drummers.

“Art Taylor was on Jug by [jazz saxophonist] Gene Ammons, one of the first records I bought that I really loved,” Mason fondly recalls.

“He swung so hard and played the right thing in the right place. That was one of my earliest lessons in drumming. And I think it’s a major part of my success. I also

started listening to Roy Haynes, Art Blakey, and I gradually moved to Tony Williams — another major influence. They all touched my life.”

Regardless of that solid jazz cred, which also included gigs with pianists James Booker and Errol Garner, Atlantic City High School graduate Mason’s extensive studio work during the jazz fusion era of the 1970s earned him some shade from his mainstream contemporaries.

“I got a lot of flack from jazz players,” Mason says. “They did the old-school jazz thing. They tried to freeze me out. They thought I sold out because I played R&B, or I made this kind of record. [But] later they saw that I was a regular guy, and didn’t have an attitude; especially when they realized I came out of Atlantic City.”

Born in 1947, Mason started playing drums when he was four and credits Indiana Avenue Middle School and Atlantic City High School with providing him with a rich musical foundation.

“Joseph Jacobs taught at the Indiana Avenue School; he was a violinist with the Philadelphia Orchestra,” Mason says. “And then I had other teachers: Mr. Heath and David Tobias. By the time I got to Berklee [College of Music in Boston, Mass.], I tested out of my first year of theory.”

Mason transferred to the New England Conservatory of Music, where he earned his B.A. in Education and Performance in 1970 before playing with Garner and moving to Los Angeles to pursue studio work, which he would get a lot of.

But it was in the hot-house atmosphere of Atlantic City’s storied jazz scene where Mason’s real education occurred.

“I started working around 14 or 15, playing in hotels, motels, strip clubs, rock n’ roll bands, surfer music, Bar Mitzvahs,” Mason says. “The area called KY [Kentucky Avenue] and The Curb was where three clubs converged, including Club Harlem, which was a black nightclub that had cigarette girls, a lounge in the front and a showroom in the back with a big band. And Wonder Gardens, where I mostly worked, was strictly jazz.

You could see everybody — Cannonball Adderley, Tony Bennett, Sammy Davis Jr., The Temptations, Al Green, Miles Davis. I had a great education.”

Now, as Chameleon so aurally illustrates, Harvey Mason proves that a sideman can emerge 20 feet from stardom and shine.

“I didn’t care if people knew who I was.” he proclaims. “My aim then, was to make as much music with as many people as I [could], giving my heart to every project.

That was my aim then, and it’s still my aim today.” ■ Eugene Holley, Jr. contributes Philadelphia Weekly magazine see more online @

Tribute to Tommy Mottola

By Jerry Blavat

O

nce again, greetings and salutations. As you read this, we are gearing up for our 30th show at the Kimmel Center on Saturday, April 19. It’s a doo-wop reunion celebrating some of the great groups who performed with us at one time or another over the years. And of course there will be dancing in the Atrium before, after, and during intermission.

To find out more and to get your tickets, call (215) 893-1999 or log onto kimmelcenter.org, where you can choose your own seats. Hope to see you there. By the way, are you counting the weeks to the opening of Memories in Margate? More about that next time. Now, let’s ask the Geator.

Geator, are ALL of your daily shows for different radio stations the SAME show, or are they different shows? — Rodger Dillon, E. Alton, Illinois My weekday shows are the same on all the stations, even though they air at different times depending on the station.

My Saturday show, The Geator’s Rock & Roll, Rhythm & Blues Express, is heard only from 6-7pm on WXPN, the station of the University of Pennsylvania, and my Sunday show, The Geator, Frank and Friends, is heard only from noon to 2pm on WOND 1400 from Atlantic City. But all my shows can be heard from wherever you are over the Internet — for the complete lineup go to geator.net and click on “Radio Schedule.”

In the song “Cherchez La Femme,” do you know the meaning of the line about Tommy Mottola? — R.G., Ocean City Tommy Mottola, before becoming the head of Sony and CBS Records, was a manager who handled Hall & Oates and of course was responsible for Mariah Carey, who he later married. Tommy discovered and managed Dr. Buzzard’s Original Savannah Band, the group that did the song, and got them their first major recording contract. The lyric “Tommy Mottola lives on the road” was a tribute to his early days when he would go on the road with his artists to promote their songs and careers.

And here’s a trivia question for you: Another song released

by Tommy Mottola was “Native New Yorker,” which was a big hit for Odyssey in 1977. Who recorded the original version of the song? Answer below.

What ever happened to Ron Diamond? — Al Grellet (via Facebook)

Carey and Mottola

Ron Diamond, who in the ‘60s had a very popular radio show out of Trenton and was one of the earliest DJs to broadcast on the Internet, has been out of the business for years and lives in California, where he has done quite well as a businessman and author writing under his real name, Ron Cutler.

Answer to trivia: Sandy Linzer and Denny Rendell, who wrote some of the early hits for the Four Seasons, including “Let’s Hang On” and “Working My Way Back to You,” wrote “Native New Yorker” specifically for Frankie Valli, and if you listen to my show, you’ll hear me play Frankie’s version, which was recorded and released a few months before the hit by Odyssey. ■

JERRY BLAVAT Got a question for Jerry? Send it to AskTheGeator@acweekly.com or Geator Gold Radio, 626 Market Street, Philadelphia, PA 19106. For more info on Jerry’s appearances, go to www.geator.net — and keep on rocking, ’cause you only rock once!

Festival Highlights

Jersey Fresh Films

Garden State Film Festival makes its Atlantic City debut April 3-6 with stars Laura Dern, Ed Asner, Bebe Neuwirth and Diane Ladd attending. By Lori Hoffman • feedback@acweekly.com

22

APRIL 3 - 9, 2014 • ATLANTIC CITY WEEKLY

A

fter 10 years in Asbury Park, the 12th Garden State Film Festival is moving south to Atlantic City. Thanks to an agreement with the CRDA (Casino Reinvestment Development Authority) offering financial and marketing support, the festival will present 184 films from 16 countries, some of them by New Jersey filmmakers and student filmmakers.

Besides screenings at Resorts, Trump Taj Mahal and Dante Hall, the Chelsea Hotel and Taj Mahal will both host filmmaker panel discussions, there is an opening night party and a closing night black-tie awards ceremony, as well as book signings, Q&A sessions, education programs, a script readthrough with Ed Asner, and an open casting call.

The spectacular kick-off event is Thursday, April 3, at Boardwalk Hall’s Adrian Phillips Ballroom. As a benefit for the Historic Organ Restoration Committee (HORC), the GSFF co-presents a screening of the 1926 silent film The Black Pirate, starring Douglas Fairbanks, with live organ accompaniment by Dr. Steven Ball as a benefit for the HORC. The screening is at 7pm and tickets are $15, available at Boardwalk Hall or via Ticketmaster. The organ in the Ballroom was originally designed to provide music for silent movies.

The official kick-off party is Friday, 7pm, at Resorts with Atlantic City Mayor Don Guardian serving as the Honorary Chair and emcee. Joining him will be Asner, Diane Ladd and actor and Stockton College professor Franklin Ojeda Smith, this year’s Lifetime Achievement Award recipient.

“We are here for the duration. We have never been happier. Just because we only have a three-year deal doesn’t mean we are going anywhere. We love Atlantic City.”

Garden State Film Festival founder and festival director Diane Raver is excited about the move to Atlantic City.

“It was a natural fit,” says Raver, “and worked out the way it was supposed to.”

The festival has signed an official agreement for three years, but according to Raver, “We are here for the duration. We have never been happier. Just because we only have a three-year deal doesn’t mean we are going anywhere. We love Atlantic City. The joy of working with professionals has been just delightful. You guys know how to do an event down there. It has been refreshing.”

When it is mentioned that besides the IMAX at Tropicana, Atlantic City hasn’t had any regular movie theaters in many years, Raver hints at future plans.

“We may change that down the road,” she says. “That is part of our master plan.

Our long-term goal is to create a film center. New Jersey is where the film industry began.”

Raver has used her industry contacts to bring an impressive group of stars to the film festival, including Margate native and award-winning screenwriter Scott Neustadter, who will be given the 2014 Spirit of New Jersey Award. Along with his writing

partner Michael H. Weber, Neustadter has earned rising-star status for (500) Days of Summer, 2013’s The Spectacular Now and coming out on June 6, The Fault in Our Stars, based on the best-selling young adult novel by John Green. The film stars Shailene Woodley, Willem DaFoe, Ansel Elgort and another GSFF honoree, Laura Dern.

“Ironically, in a convergence of the stars, he and Laura Dern just finished a picture together. The universe kind of does that. It makes the planets align.”

Neustadter is bringing a clip from The Fault in Our Stars to his panel discussion, “AC to LA: Climbing the Hollywood Ladder,” slated for Sunday, April 6, at 1pm at the Opal Room of the Trump Taj Mahal.

Raver is glad Asner is also attending the festival.

“Ed is hysterical,” explains Raver. “When he was my lifetime achievement honoree I never had so much fun at the festival. He brings so much joy to the party.”

To whittle down the films to 184, the festival committee has to go through about 700 submissions yearly.

“We burn out the judges pretty quickly,” admits Raver. “We start in July, that’s when we begin screening entries.” ■

these extraordinary animals in the forest and figuring out their lifestyles. Nobody had ever studied any of these species. It was just so much fun to be the first person to see how they lived.

“With over 90 percent of the habitat gone and over 100 species, we are treading on very thin ice. I’m hoping the film will inspire people to know and love lemurs and want to help them and save them for the future.

Kids should tell their parents they want to visit Madagascar for a family trip.” Dr. Wright explains that thriving eco-tourism in Madagascar provides good jobs and is an alternative to destroying the habitat. Much of Dr. Wright’s work with lemurs involves helping the people of Madagascar with jobs, healthcare, and schools so that they can thrive while helping the lemurs thrive in their habitat.

Asking Wright which of the lemur species is her favorite, she explains, “The Greater bamboo lemurs are my favorites. They are very spunky. But I love all the lemurs. I love the little mouse lemurs; I love the Golden bamboo lemur and those sifaka lemurs. To see them leap in the trees takes my breath away. I really think they should go to the Olympics.”

Island of Lemurs Madagascar opens exclusively at Tropicana’s IMAX on Friday, April 4. n

MARCH 27-APRIL 2, 2014 • ATLANTIC CITY WEEKLY

L

emurs are fascinating creatures with an amazing history that predates humans by millions of years. They were around when dinosaurs ruled the earth. Lemurs took a perilous ocean journey millions of years ago from Africa to the island of Madagascar, which is where, with no predators, they developed numerous species and thrived — until man arrived, that is.

Island of Lemurs Madagascar is a terrific IMAX 3D look at these primates, categorized as the world’s most endangered mammals, complete with narration by Morgan Freeman, a delightful re-creation of their castaway move from Africa to Madagascar, and an introduction to the scientist who has made the study and conservation of lemurs her life’s work, Dr. Patricia Wright.

Wright, a primatologist, anthropologist and conservationist, did a 28-year study of wild lemurs and helped create the Ranomafana National Park in Madagascar.

I had a chance to talk with Dr. Wright about her beloved lemurs. “I fell in love with lemurs the first time I ever saw them,” says Wright. “My first job was working at the Duke Lemur Center in North Carolina.

Up to then, even though I had a PhD in Primatology, I had never actually seen a live lemur. They are so beautiful. It was random luck that they arrived on this island and without [natural predators] they evolved into these many different species, over 100.”

Wright first went to Madagascar to find a lemur species thought to be extinct, the Greater bamboo lemur. She not only found that species but discovered a new species, the Golden bamboo lemur. “That first time, we had been searching for months and I saw this lemur and it was orange. I found the Greater bamboo lemur and it didn’t look anything like the orange lemur. The Golden bamboo lemur was much bigger and made different sounds. At that point I was even more excited because I realized we had a new species. I love what I do. Following

Sud-tastic Celebration Grown exponentially in size and scope since its start nine years ago, the A.C. Beer & Music Festival has become one of the city’s most hallowed harbingers of spring. By Ray Schweibert • feedback@acweekly.com

28

APRIL 3 - 9, 2014 • ATLANTIC CITY WEEKLY

T

urning two score this summer, selfprofessed adrenaline junkie Jon Henderson has already thrill-sought his way well into his bucket list, so it may take a little more to stir his passion today than it did when he was a slightly younger man. Bring up the Atlantic City Beer & Music Festival, though, and nine years later his reaction still rivals Ralphie raving about the Red Ryder BB gun he so craved for Christmas.

Henderson and his Good Time Tricycle crew created the “Celebration of the Suds” in 2006 and attracted a modest but nonetheless impressive 5,000 people that inaugural year. This Friday and Saturday, April 4-5, close to five times that number are expected to attend the three sessions at the Atlantic City Convention Center. Over 100 craft brewers from around the nation, including about a dozen New Jersey breweries given their own special section, will each showcase several samplings of suds. Three major headliners and six independent bands will provide the soundtrack, and special events will include educational seminars and a vast variety of fun stuff for everyone over age 21.

“Two of the bands we’re bringing in are actually headliners for this year’s Warped Tour [the country’s longest running touring festival, now in its 20th year] — Less Than Jake and Saves The Day,” says Henderson. “[Beerfest] itself is growing and growing and growing and to be relevant, the festival’s soundtrack needs to be relevant. I mean, with a billion other beer fests out there it only make sense. We’re one of the biggest,

facebook.com/ACWeekly @acweekly

one of the most entertaining, and as much as we put behind the bands, it’s not about the music it’s about the beer. We just pick the right bands [see sidebar] to create the right soundtrack for the weekend. It’s all about the beer, but the music certainly sets it off.”

Some of the festival’s beer-related special events include chef Giancarlo Generosi of Scarduzio’s restaurants demonstrating fun ways to cook and prepare meats and desserts with beer; a home-brewing seminar by Ron Witkowski of Love2Brew.com; exploring the Garden State’s ever-expanding craft beer scene by New Jersey Craft Beer founder Mike Kivowitz; a beer-and-chocolate pairing demonstration by author Tara Nurin; and a seminar by chef Kevin Cronin and owner Paul Tonacci of the A.C. Bottle Company’s Iron Room on pairing [and sampling] beer with cheese.

“Again, we really look for programming — fun and educational ways to keep people entertained, a lot of which is as much fun to do as it is to watch other people do,” says Henderson. “And we’ve added a bunch of new stuff that I don’t want to mention because I want it to be a surprise. But we’ve swapped out the mechanical bull and added something even more fun for folks to do, Haven nightclub [of Golden Nugget] has taken control of our silent disco, and our VIP component, the Mustache Lounge, will have specialty tastings every half hour of different products that are relatively hard to get.”

Along with about a dozen New Jersey breweries bringing in their wares, the fes-

tival’s food providers have even more of a local tone.

“I’m a big advocate of drink local, drink Jersey, and one of things we do is give New Jersey beers their own section in the festival,” says Henderson. “Coupled with that is the fact that since the festival is Atlantic City based, all the restaurants with the exception of Spanky’s [BBQ, of Cape May] are all A.C. restaurants. We’ve got Chickie’s & Pete’s, Harry’s [Oyster Bar], Phillips Seafood, Sammy’s D’s, Tony Boloney’s, Vagabond Kitchen — my thought behind that is, if we’re going to have food and we’re going to cement how cool Atlantic City is, let’s do an Atlantic City culinary. This is Atlantic City, man, grub up!”

Event sponsor Bally’s is a straight shot down Ohio Avenue, and the festival’s easy access to rooms within walking distance, plus a variety of public transportation options, make Atlantic City an optimal town to host such an event, says Henderson.

“The train system runs right into the Convention Center, there are jitneys that can take you anywhere you want to go — we have such an actual, physical infrastructure of transportation in Atlantic City that, as a tourism base, our city is perfect for an event like this,” he says. “You can park your car in a parking garage and leave it there all weekend, you can walk from our hotel partner Bally’s literally straight down the street and then walk back to your room.

“Next year’s our 10th — we’ll have been doing this 10 years and it’s good that it’s evolved to what it is. We talk to breweries every day and they’re excited to be part of

ew Jersey is once again well represented in the Celebration of the Suds’ music lineup, matching the festival’s food and beer purveyors.

Session One’s headliner, the five-man band Saves The Day, comes from the central New Jersey town probably better known for its fancy book learnin’ than alternative/punk rock bands, Princeton.

They’ll be backed up Friday night by Atlantic City-based Jumpship and Phillybased Restorations. Saturday’s night another central N.J.-based, five-piece, horn-driven ska/punk band, Backyard Superheroes, is one of two openers for headliner Less Than Jake along with a unique acoustic trio (violin, guitar and standup bass) from what is likely the first band to visit A.C. in 2014 from South Dakota, Onward Etc. “This road gets wilder by the minute,” says violinist Rosco Wuestewald of Onward Ect., which released its second album on March 11, Sonder On. “This will be our first time through Atlantic City and we couldn’t be more stoked that it will be playing the AC Beerfest with Less Than Jake and Saves The Day.” The entire A.C. Beer & Music Festival music lineup is below: Session 1: (Fri. 7-11pm) — Main stage: Saves the Day (headliner), Restorations, Jumpship. Acoustic stage: David Earl, Nicole Sbaffoni, Anthony Nastasi Jr. Session 2: (Sat. noon-4pm) — Main stage: Dirty Heads (headliner), Jay D. Clark, Still Moon. Acoustic stage: Chris Brown, Joel Correa, Jas Nature, Jeff Murray.

Sushi Sure to Please

Azure by Allegretti

Specializing in exceptional seafood locally sourced, chef Alain Allegretti’s Azure at Revel offers seven specialty rolls during its Sushi Monday debut. By Frank Gabriel • feedback@acweekly.com

crab, accompanied by creamy avocado.

Or a lightly spiced shrimp roll incorporating cucumber and tobiko accented by a thinly sliced jalapeno topping, with crunchy tempura flakes for added textural complexity.

Our two favorites, however, were a spicy king crab and the house signature Azure roll. The former combined that regal seafood along with sliced asparagus, avocado and scallion, spicy aioli finishing topside.

The latter, easily Mai’s chef-d’oeuvre, brings together cold-water eel, cucumber, more tempura flakes plus salmon roe.

Unagi sauce — a thickened, mildly sweet, soy-based blend — the traditional compliment to the eel’s potent nature, completed this hearty specialty.

Next up on our plates was another signature, Azure’s lobster salad. Formed in a ring mold, the multi-layer construct begins with a basement of potato salad, followed by a green middle layer of tiny haricots verts blended with avocado.

Perfectly cooked, tender lobster forms the penthouse, accented via a crimson pepper coulis.

Entrees began with delicately formed lobster ravioli. Six triangular pasta pillows were shingled across a wide plate artfully. In addition to the costly crustacean within, more lobster pieces lay scattered atop those precious little bundles.

Finished with a classic sauce Americaine — also based on lobster — it reiterated and deepened that ingredient’s beautiful,

aquatic essence. Pastel orange in color, the sauce simultaneously added color and contrast to the pale ravioli and pink crustacean.

My choice, filet mignon, is a cut of beef we don’t typically steer toward. Azure’s version delivered a glorious, two-inch thick hunk of meat. Ordered and served exactly mid-rare, the beef’s exterior was seared and then allowed to roast until finished in a hot oven.

It’s truly a delicate balancing act cooking meat this lean, but my filet was beyond reproach. Pink and just barely warm within, it was rich, luxurious and well-paired with potato fondant and an assortment — baby carrots and asparagus bits among them — of vegetables.

We simply couldn’t resist another traditional French favorite, crepes, as our dessert. Adding to our bliss was the fact that this item was finished tableside, one of our very favorite things in the whole wide world of dining.

The crepes themselves had been precooked, then quickly heated to temp in a nonstick pan. Orange segments simultaneously warmed alongside, quickly moving inside the trio of pastry pieces after 30 or so seconds. Quickly flambéing with Grand Marnier, they were presented still steamy with a small bowl of quality vanilla ice cream. Our dining partner opted for an apple crumble tart, the crunchy baked shell and fruit made glamorous by Calvados crème Anglaise.

People often ask us where to dine locally, and this gorgeous, waterfront facility is always one suggestion. Our revisit only served to solidify those opinions — Azure is one of Atlantic City’s very finest highend restaurants. ■ ATLANTIC CITY WEEKLY • APRIL 3 - 9, 2014

MARCH 27-APRIL 2, 2014 • ATLANTIC CITY WEEKLY

I

n his introductory tome, 2000’s Kitchen Confidential, chef/author Anthony Bourdain admonished readers about hazards of eating seafood on Monday, saying “I never order fish on Monday, unless I’m eating at a four-star restaurant where I know they are buying their fish directly from the source. I know how old most seafood is on Monday — about four to five days old!”

Azure, chef Alain Allegretti’s two-yearold, terminally pretty restaurant at Revel, turns that thinking on its pointy little head via the recent introduction of a “Sushi Monday” promotion.

With seven handsomely constructed rolls to select from, patrons now have even more delectable, healthy options at the Riviera-themed Azure. Which is in large part of what we found so enchanting during our first outing here; Allegretti’s fabulous fare is nearly guilt-free.

So for us, introducing these oceanic items makes a great deal of sense, particularly given spring and summer’s lighter dining inclinations. Responsible for preparing those Japanese specialties is local Jessie Mai, a native of Cardiff in Egg Harbor Township.

Describing her background as “self taught,” the diminutive Mai was previously employed at Souzai on The Pier Shops at Caesars and as a server at Azure. Mai’s products are thoughtfully constructed and offer fresh, exciting flavor profiles. Her knife skills are quite formidable, sharp, precise slices often razor-thin.

Though not quite reaching the wickedly sublime expertise of Margate’s Tomatoe’s — our barometer for the area’s premium sushi/sashimi — they remain superior creations. Like the King California, our first treat, loaded full of king and blue
