PINKY’S CORNER

No Miss America Parade in A.C. By Pinky Kravitz

T

WO WEEKS AGO THIS COLUMNIST WROTE: “The seeds of ideas generally come from a small group that discusses a project and then introduces it to others to build up momentum and to make it become a reality.� Tom Lamaine, a recently retired and longtime TV meteorologist, came up with an idea that would apply well to that expression. Lamaine suggested having the 90th anniversary of the Miss America parade on the Atlantic City Boardwalk. It would be a one-time parade that would not only feature the contestants, but also all former Miss Americas. It seemed like the logical thing to do. The idea was presented to the pageant officials who said they would have to check out the contract with Las Vegas, where it was anticipated a parade might be held. In the meantime, Lamaine, with the assistance of several others, was able to put together 99 percent of everything needed to have an outstanding parade in Atlantic City. The parade was embraced by Atlantic City Mayor Lorenzo Langford, who said the city would do everything necessary to make it become a reality by providing police security and public-works employees to clean up the Boardwalk afterward. Lamaine was able to line up the assistance of several casinos that agreed to house and feed the contestants, their chaperones and the former Miss Americas. He received a commitment to have sufficient convertibles to carry the women. He also received pledges of assistance from parade guru Charlie Coyle and his crew of parade organizers. All of this went out the window when the Miss America Pageant’s CEO, Art McMaster, called Lamaine to inform him that Las Vegas indicated that there would only be one parade, and that it would be in Las Vegas. It blew the wind right out of the sails of Lamaine and his cohorts who so valiantly tried to get this done. It is very difficult to understand why those in Las Vegas would say no to having a parade in Atlantic City. The parade could only enhance the Miss America Pageant, which will be held at Planet Hollywood Casino Hotel in Las Vegas and televised on Jan. 15. The local committee was willing to put in a float promoting Planet Hollywood and Las Vegas as the site of the 90th anniversary pageant. They had everything to gain and nothing to lose. They certainly cannot have a parade in Las Vegas the likes of which we would have had in Atlantic City. The horrendous traffic problems in Las Vegas would curtail them for having it on any of their main thoroughfares. The Planet Hollywood there is owned by Harrah’s Entertainment, which owns four casinos in Atlantic City. I appeal to the representatives of Harrah’s in Atlantic City to use their influence in getting the Las Vegas group to change their minds. I also hope that future Mayor’s Summit Committee meetings will include efforts to try go get the decision-makers in Las Vegas to change their minds.

Atlantic City Dog Ordinance

For the benefit of those of you who own dogs, and particularly those of you who reside in beachfront properties, the following information is for you. Join us on Facebook:

facebook.com/ACWeekly

Here is Atlantic City’s dog ordinance: “No person owning, keeping or harboring any dog, whether same is registered or not, shall allow it on the Boardwalk, on the public beaches known with the Boardwalk as the ‘public park,’ or in the ocean bordering said public park between Memorial Day of each year and the 15th day of September, whether said dog is on a leash or running free. The purpose of this mandatory section is to prohibit dogs from being in the public Boardwalk, beach or in the ocean during the approximate period that said Boardwalk, beach and ocean are being used as places of promenade and recreation, and is adopted by the City Council as a health measure for the greater benefit of the majority of the people. The prohibitions set forth in this section shall not apply to Seeing Eye dogs, which are all on leashes, or to K-9 dogs attached to a law-enforcement agency in the performance of its duty.�

Notes of Interest

A year or so ago, when Wally Barr and Curtis Bashaw were making plans to develop a casino on their property at Albany Avenue and the Boardwalk, there was discussion about moving the Albany Avenue monument into the Veterans Park so the traffic could move more freely. We now know that there are no longer plans for any major casino developments at this time. There is the possibility of a 200-room hotel/casino at the site, but it would not provide the necessary funds to move the monument. If the monument is to stay, as it appears, it is time to enhance it with lights. As one drives into and out of Atlantic City on the Black Horse Pike, the monument, which is dedicated to those who died in the first World War, stands as a dark object in the path of the traffic. If memory serves me correctly it was well lit at one time. Unfortunately, like so many other things in the city, when the lights went out nobody bothered to fix them. It certainly would not be a costly item to attractively light the beautiful monument, and it would provide a friendly welcome to those coming into the city. This is another item that should be considered by the Mayor’s Summit Committees. I would like to take this opportunity to extend my sincerest appreciation to those of you who took time to acknowledge my recent distinction by the New Jersey Broadcaster Association’s Lifetime Achievement Awards as the first inductee into their Hall of Fame. It is most gratifying to hear from those of you who have been in my corner for many years. These and other awards I received over the years have been based on my relationship with you, the readers of my column, the listeners of my radio show, and the viewers of my television show. What I have done could not have been done without you. n

Lady Gaga made national headlines after her July 4 concert in Atlantic City at Boardwalk Hall. The show was sponsored by the Borgata.

Q: How was the show? Hot Licks and Baby Backs

What’s a little cool jazz without some hot BBQ on the side? OK, maybe we’re stretching a little to get the hot vs. cool thing going, but how else can you describe this weekend in North Wildwood, which features the annual Anglesea Blues Festival and the NJ State Barbecue Championships in the same place (at 2nd & Olde New Jersey Avenue) at the same time? That means they’ll be sizzling in the BBQ pits as well as on stage. You know, heating up the place with hot licks and baby backs. All right, stopping now. The two events, however, make for a one-of-a-kind festival. “This year, the line-up promises to be the best blues festival the city has ever hosted,� boasts North Wildwood Mayor Bill Henfey. This year’s lineup includes the Sean Chambers Band on Friday, Frank Bey and the Swing City Blues Band on Saturday and Grant Austin Taylor on Sunday. Go to angleseablues.com for the full schedule. Meanwhile, the BBQ championship includes several best-contests and the overall championship on Sunday. Go to njbbq.com for info. Both festivals take place Friday through Sunday. It’s gonna be smokin’ (had to go for one more). — Mike Pritchard

James Gormly-Rack Rockville, Md. A: It was a totally awesome show. I would come back 10 times to see her!

Laruen Tonzola Edison, N.J. A: What a fabulous show! I am very impressed. I would definitely make the trip to see her again.

Jennifer Steingart Scotch Plains, N.J. A: It was an excellent show and I will be back to see Gaga again in February!


ASK THE GEATOR

What a Celebration! By Jerry Blavat

O

NCE AGAIN, GREETINGS AND salutations. Yes, another page has turned for the Geator and Uncle Sam. And what a birthday celebration to remember. The weather, the people, the excitement — can’t remember when it was any better. To all of you who partied with us over the Fourth, what can I say except many thanks. I’ve said it before: You, the audience, are my second family. You have brought me success beyond my wildest dreams, but more important, happiness. When I see those smiling faces and dancing feet, I realize that my mission is to bring happiness to others, and I feel truly blessed. (See p. 12 for more on Memories.) The people? Too numerous to mention all, but a few who are always there: Pete Ciarrocchi of Chickie’s & Pete’s. Chris Gualtieri and family and the folks from Barrels. Pete McAndrews of Modo Mio. Joey Vento and Geno’s. George Grigos and the folks from the Aramingo Diner. The Kerbeck family — George, Charlie, Frank. Join us on Facebook:

I’m glad you listen online, and for you folks out there who aren’t in range of my broadcasts, you can pick us up weekGreg and John Gentile and the folks from days from 5-7pm on wvlt.com, Saturdays Family Dodge. Gary and Geno Barbera. from 6-7pm on xpn.org, and summer weekYou all stood tall. And a special thanks to ends at 9pm on kool983.com. the Trammps, who ended the weekend What is that great dance song you play at with the real fireworks. Thanks to all for Memories with the lyrics, “Keep keeping on, you an unforgettable birthday celebration. And gotta keep keeping on�? It’s a male group and now, let’s ask the Geator. at the end they sing it a cappella. — Keely Jerry, are you planning another show at the That’s “Keep On� by D. Train, made up NJ Performing Arts Center in Newark in the near future? I was at your last one. Even though of singer James “D-Train� Williams and I live only seven miles from New York City, I producer Hubert Eaves, a very popular duo listen to you every evening via the Internet from from New York during the disco era. Their your station in Vineland and on weekends dance hit “You’re the One for Me� made it when you broadcast live over KOOL 98.3 from to No. 1, and you might also have heard their cover of “Walk On By.� Memories. — Bob G. Bob, as much as I enjoy doing the concerts at the NJPAC, unfortunately, with my busy schedule, I don’t have that many dates available. The Kimmel Center concerts are booked well in advance, which gives me an opportunity to plan the artists who will appear. As of now I have no dates planned

Yo Jerry, it’s Vic Livingston, former Channel 29 biz reporter and lead guitarist for Nino & the Stairways back in the mid-’60s. Just recently I discovered Pete Antell’s “Night Time� in a crate of 45s. The B side, “Something About You,� sounded very much like Springsteen’s “Girls in Their Summer Clothes.� Do you think Bruce

had this melody tucked away in his head, like he did with Major Lance’s “Monkey Time,� which shares a riff with “Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out�? These are the questions that must be answered! — Vic Livingston Writers are always listening to other people’s compositions to get ideas. And there is a certain amount you can take without being sued for copyright infringement. But to know for sure, you’d have to ask Bruce himself. If I ever get the opportunity to sit down with him, I will. It’s a great question. n

The Godfather’s Biggest Fan

‘The Godfadda Workout’

When: Now to Sept. 5, Wed.-Sun. 8pm Where: Bally’s Palace Theater, A.C. How Much: $25

Seth Isler’s amusing one-man parody of the classic movie presents an offer of laughter you can’t refuse By Lori Hoffman

W

PHOTO BY TOM BRIGLIA

E’VE ALL HAD MOVIES that stayed with us for years and even decades. The Godfadda Workout is a show for anyone who has ever stood in front of the mirror and said, “Are you talkin’ to me?� Actor Seth Isler, collaborating with his co-creator Susan Jane Sullivan, turned his obsession with The Godfather into a oneman show that recreates numerous key scenes from the legendary movie, with added physical comedy bits. As for the “Workout� portion of the title, Isler is the one getting the workout by leaping over desks, sliding across a table and doing other energetic bits of physical busi-

Isler in action

“A man can never be a real man unless he has memorized ‘The Godfather.’� ness as he parades around the stage to play the numerous characters he creates — Brando’s Godfather, Robert Duvall’s Tom, James Caan’s Sonny, Al Pacino’s Michael and even Diane Keaton’s Kay. The premise of the show is that Isler has lost many of his friends and ruined romantic relationships because of his obsession with The Godfather. He talks to the Godfather (a voice from the sky),

who suggests that in order to exorcise his obsession, Isler should do a series of scenes from the movie. When he is done, his obsession will be cured. This is the premise that gives Isler the opportunity to have a blast doing his impressive vocal impressions of the cast and his crazy physical actions. And, although he has the only speaking role, it should be noted that the stagehands bring their own comedy style to the changing of the set pieces and as behind-the-scenes assistants. This oneman show takes more than one person

to pull it off successfully. At a running time of 90 minutes, the show seems a bit long. As is typical in sketch comedy, some of the sketches are lighter on the laughs than others, but those moments in the production are then quickly forgotten as a funnier bit follows. The Godfadda Workout will entertain all the obsessive movie fans out there who are guilty of creating movie scenes in the privacy of their own homes. Isler has taken his own obsession to the stage of Bally’s Palace Theater this summer. n

From the Freeway to the Stage

When he isn’t recreating The Godfather onstage, Seth Isler is an actor (Bones, Cold Case, Medium, E.R.) and a producer of documentaries. He has produced many History Channel, MSNBC and A&E specials, biographies and series, including the award-winning The Unfinished Civil War, and A&E’s Biography of David BenGurion, both of which he also narrated. The Godfadda Workout has received numerous awards, and has been produced OffBroadway, in Las Vegas, Los Angeles and at the HBO Comedy Festival in Aspen, Colo., before landing at Bally’s this summer. Isler explains that, “My philosophy of life is that a man can never be a real man unless he has memorized The Godfather. I watched that movie a million times and then one day I went driving in L.A. on the 405 freeway and I started reciting the dialogue. Of course no one was looking at me because that is pretty normal behavior for the L.A. freeway.� Later Isler met Susan Sullivan at an acting workshop and she helped shape his vision into the finished show. “We went to junk yards, thrift yards ... the show has a homemade feel to it. You’re supposed to see all the gags, all the strings. It is supposed to be this obsessed guy who built this set in his dad’s garage.� Isler also admits that he never expected this gig to linger for 14 years. “Just when I thought I was out ... this has been an absolutely amazing time for us. We just keep coming back to this because we get so much joy out of doing it.� — LH

The 82-year-old Ventnor resident has been broadcasting in the Atlantic City market for 53 years, including from nearly every A.C. casino. Currently he broadcasts his Pinky’s Corner talk-radio show from the Borgata 4-6pm weekdays on WOND 1400 AM, and does a Saturday evening television show on WMGM-TV 40 out of Linwood from 7:30-8pm. He also writes a weekly column for Atlantic City Weekly. Paul S. Rotella, president of the New Jersey Broadcasters Association, announced Kravitz as the first recipient of the award at the conference. “Pinky Kravitz has been called the most significant radio personality in the history of New Jersey, and more Mr. Atlantic City than Mr. Peanut ever was,” said Rotella. “He is an important and impartial advocate for Atlantic City and, indeed, all of New Jersey.”

Pinky Kravitz “I’ve been honored by many organizations over the years,” said Kravitz, “but when it comes from your peers, the industry that you’ve devoted a large portion of your life to, it’s very gratifying.”

new social networking concept called Foursquare. Oy, as if, Myspace, Facebook, and Twitter aren’t enough, now there is Foursquare. According to crunchbase. com, “Foursquare is a location based social network that incorporates gaming elements. Users share their location with friends by ‘checking in’ via a smartphone app or by text message. Points are awarded for checking in at various venues. Users can connect their Foursquare accounts to their Twitter and Facebook accounts, which can update when a check-in is registered. By checking in a certain number of times, or in different locations, users can collect virtual badges. In addition, users who have checked in the most times at a certain venue will be crowned ‘Mayor’ until someone surpasses their number. Various venues have embraced Foursquare, and offer special deals to users who are ‘mayors.’ Foursquare has applications for iPhone, Android, Blackberry, and Windows Mobile.” Many friends of mine who are sharing a summer house in Ventnor were bragging about their “Mayorships” this weekend — even around the house. It was too funny watching them check in to the kitchen or the zula (a.k.a. the porch). Some other places that they checked into ran the gamut from their favorite place on the beach to hot spots like Ventura’s and the Chelsea. Plus every time they check in, an alert goes out to all of their friends who are on other social networks. In a way it could be a dangerous safety issue for people to know where you are at all times, but I guess looking on the bright side, maybe someone you know will be in that same place at the same time and you can hook up. As for the benefit of the Mayor title, I still haven’t figured that out yet. n

On Wednesday, June 9 — during the second day of the two-day Mid-Atlantic Broadcasters Conference held at Trump Plaza — Pinky Kravitz was bestowed the first-ever Lifetime Achievement Award by the New Jersey Broadcasters Association.

HIS PAST JULY 4 WEEKEND, there was so much to do between the family BBQs and the various fireworks displays and parties. How lucky are we to have Atlantic City, Ocean City, Brigantine and other beach towns right in our back yards? Within 30 minutes we can be at any of these area beaches. In today’s economy, money is tight, and although there are great deals on travel, sometimes a “staycation” is what we need instead. My hubby decided to have us do a “staycation” in Margate for the July 4 weekend. At first, I was a little bummed because I wanted to get away and relax where no one knew our names. But, of course, I had to go with the flow, and let me tell you, it was a very relaxing weekend. On our trips to the beach, I put my chair close to where the water meets the sand, and just sat there and looked at the ocean. I thought to myself, “Wow, I actually feel like I am on vacation right now.” More people should try to get out to the beach at least once this summer. It may not feel like you are getting away when going to a local beach, but once you are there, you can truly have that relaxing vacation feeling. The big plans for the July 4 evening were to figure out where to watch the fireworks. This year we were very fortunate because a good friend who has a boat docked at the Trump Marina invited us to watch the fireworks over The Borgata and Harrah’s Resort. We haven’t been on a boat in years, but we took him up on the offer and boy were we glad we did. It was extremely relaxing just to sit there and take in the fresh air and enjoy the scenery — so much so that the “social” me was too busy relaxing to be outgoing. No matter where you were to catch the Atlantic City fireworks, you probably had an excellent view, and the fireworks were sensational, including heart shapes and smiley faces exploding in the air! In addition, for someone like me who is not a big nature person and who likes to stay in when it’s nice out, and who always has to be connected and busy doing something, it was a great feat to be able to unwind this weekend on my staycation. I could certainly get used to the boating culture, too, which is very new to me. Anyway, the rest of the weekend was spent eating and watching my friends check into different areas using a

Geator’s Goin’ Strong Fans from far and wide celebrated a double Memories milestone — Jerry Blavat’s 70th birthday and 50th year in show business — over July 4 weekend By Ray Schweibert PHOTO BY RAY SCHWEIBERT

I

T ISN’T UNCOMMON TO SEE a line forming well before doors open at Memories in Margate — the Amherst Avenue nightclub Jerry “The Geator with the Heater� Blavat has owned since 1972 — during weekend nights in the summer. This weekend, though, had special significance, and the early Friday night flock certainly knew it. All were there to celebrate not just the nation’s birthday, but that of a national treasure in their eyes — a guy who sort of swashbucked his way onto the radio airwaves five decades earlier and introduced young white listeners to the sounds of talented black artists who otherwise might have gone unnoticed outside of limited circles. Blavat, the South Philly product and Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame DJ, became 70 years old July 3. At age 20, after a stint as one of the original dancers on TV’s Bandstand, he began radio broadcasting on a Camden station and caught a fortuitous break due to a blizzard. The storm sort of quarantined him into the building and he played his personal collection of records through the night, introducing the Philly scene to artists heretofore unheard of. The all-nighter caused such a sensation it catapulted the career of what would become a nationally syndicated radio and TV personality, and a person whose work ethic and penchant for making people happy sometimes seems like it may never end.

The line to get in last Friday “Jerry’s just a great guy, and charisma? He just has it,� says Ed Losco, a longtime Philly policeman who was in attendance Friday with his wife, Cookie. “He has an unbelievable amount of energy — I don’t know how he does it. I call him the Energizer Bunny. When we go to [the EHT] Chickie & Pete’s [where Blavat broadcasts live on WVLT Cruisin’ 92.1 from 5-7pm Fridays before starting his Memories live show on KOOL 98.3 at 9pm] and then come here, we need Saturday to recuperate, but he has to come right back down from Philly the next day.� The Loscos have followed Blavat’s career for about 40 years, and every weekend at Memories scores of others show up with that same brand of longstanding admiration. Many seem to see Blavat as a

person who takes great pride in his ability to make others feel good. Ida McCabe was at the Friday night party with her daughter, Kristi. “I used to come here all the time with my husband [Shamus], who was very close to Jerry,� says Ida McCabe. “We’d been coming to Memories for about 15 or 20 years, and when Jerry learned my husband had cancer he did a big benefit for him. “Before we were married I used to go to all the clubs — Chez Vous, Wagner’s, Starlight, Riviera — where he used to host his dance parties. I can’t dance now because I just had knee surgery, but my daughter’s here to dance, and my husband made sure all three of our children learned to do the line dance [or the Geator-designed ‘Discophonic Walk’] growing up.� Mary Rose and Pat Spagnullo make

the hour-and-a-half trek down from Monmouth County every weekend just to hang with the Geator, staying overnight in a casino after Friday’s gig then returning to Memories on Saturday night. “We’ve been doing that for about 25 years and have made it nearly every weekend,� says Mary Rose. “One time Jerry even took us up on stage to announce to the people the distance we came each weekend, just because he appreciated our loyalty.� Despite recently reaching septuagenarian status, Blavat’s summer schedule, excluding any special public appearances, includes a Wednesday gig (5-7pm) at Parx Casino in suburban Philly, Thursday (starting 8pm) at the Lighthouse Pointe in Wildwood Crest, Friday at Chickie’s & Pete’s (5-7pm) in EHT and Memories (9pm2am) in Margate, Saturday at Memories (9pm-2am), and Sunday (4pm) at La Costa Lounge in Sea Isle City. “He just loves doing what he does, and he puts a lot of care and detail into what he does,� says Ed Losco. “If you’ve ever seen any of his [biannual] shows at the Kimmel Center [in Philadelphia], during every act, and there’s usually about 10, he changes into a different colored suit — all Armanis he buys when he’s in New York City. He just does it to keep things lively and keep the crowd entertained.� And, of course, to practice his adage of “Keep on rocking, ‘cause you only rock once.� [Editor’s Note: Jerry Blavat writes a weekly column for AC Weekly.] n

ALOHA SUMMER DINNER & A SHOW EVERY MONDAY

HE BORGATA SUMMER OPEN produced a result that doesn’t always happen at major Atlantic City tournaments. A regular, amateur Borgata poker patron won the championship. Billy O’Neil of College Park, Md., won $180,595 in the $2,000 buy-in championship events, which wrapped up play last week. O’Neil is a Borgata regular and the casino reported there were a lot of slaps on the back and fist bumps from Borgata staff happy to see one of their own take down the title. “It’s fantastic,” O’Neil tells the Borgata. “I got real lucky, what can I say?” Second place goes to Mirza Nagji of New York, who wins $104,620. The Borgata’s various opens usually attract a fair share of pros, but with the World Series of Poker underway in Vegas, the field for the event was wide open to locals, or at least regular A.C. players. “It’s great, fantastic,” said O’Neil. “It’s nice when somebody who plays here regularly wins any of these tournaments, ever.” He also noted that the event might give some locals a little more confidence to try higher stake tournaments, even when the pros come back. On the final hand of the championship, Nagji bet 550K on a board of two of hearts, four and seven of clubs and six and eight of diamonds. O’Neil re-raised to 2 million, putting Nagji all-in. After a short pause, Nagji called only to see O’Neil’s King and five of clubs give him the straight and the championship. “I wouldn’t have called that last bet,” Nagji said, saying he had Jack, seven on the last hand. “Either he had the straight or he didn’t. Up until the eight came out, I had top pair.” Nagji, it should be noted, has a cash at The World Series of Poker main event. He finished 339th in 2008, good for about $32,000. The $2,000 buy-in championship tournament began with 321 players and had a total prize pool of $642,000. Borgata officials never commented on holding their tournament against the WSOP, but the championship event was toned down. The Borgata Spring Open held in April, for example, had a $3,500 buy-in for its championship event. That facebook.com/ACWeekly

event actually drew 383 players, higher than the summer open championship. Of course, Borgata’s big tournament is the Borgata Open, a World Poker Tour Championship event. This year’s open will be held Sept. 8-23. The championship event is Sept. 19-23 and gets TV coverage. No schedules have been released yet. Finally, for those watching to see if New Jersey can actually pull off getting Internet gambling, including poker, despite federal restrictions, there was good news of a sort last week. California is also toying with the idea and is also hoping to be the first state to legalize online gambling. Last week, however, a bill to advance California online gambling suffered a serious setback. And just like in New Jersey, much of the opposition to the bill came from the state’s gambling interests. Legislation proposed by California Sen. Rod Wright to tax online poker was withdrawn so it can be reworked. The bill was initially supported by the state’s card clubs and Indian tribes with gaming interests, but the groups have taken a drastic 180 and now oppose the bill, which they say did not guarantee them the right to offer online gambling and could hurt their interests. That sounds similar to opposition to New Jersey’s attempts to bring in online poker and gaming. Two moves are underway in New Jersey. One calls for a voter referendum to allow sports betting and online gambling in the state should federal regulations against sports betting change, and another to allow intrastate online gambling for New Jersey residents only. The Casino Association of New Jersey, led by Harrah’s Entertainment, has come out against both measures, even though Atlantic City would be the hub for any expanded gambling. The association feels expanded gambling could hurt casinos and that the state shouldn’t move until federal restrictions are lifted. Right now, the smart money says the online gambling issue will have to be settled first on a federal level before any state can move, which is not expected to happen this year.

TRUTH IN TRAVEL

IKE MANY POPULAR PERFORMERS with an impressive and best-selling discography, Sting, the former front man, songwriter and bass player for The Police, has answered the call and embarked on a greatest-hits tour this summer. For successful veteran rock ‘n rollers of a certain age — Sting is 58 — that sort of thing is considered almost de rigueur. But what separates Sting’s “Symphonicity� tour from other nostalgia-laden shows is how he’s presenting Police songs like “Roxanne� and “Next To You� and songs from his solo career, like “Russians� and “Englishman in New York.� This isn’t an exercise to see how close he and his musicians can come to cloning the studio recordings and duplicating singles and album cuts of his most familiar songs. Accompanied by the 45 members of the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra, Sting is reinterpreting his musical catalogue as classical pieces that swell and soar with the richness that can only come from a full string section and plenty of brass, woodwinds and percussion. The idea for the tour — and a companion album that drops next week — came to Sting when he was asked last year to work up a 90-minute show of his music and perform it with the Chicago Symphony. “I’d played with orchestras at the Grammys and the Oscars — just one-offs — and I enjoyed it, but I never thought about putting a whole thing together,� he told CNN last month prior to a concert at the Hollywood Bowl. “The orchestra liked playing the music, and the audience loved it.� So Sting, whose tour stops at the Borgata Event Center on Friday, July 9, decided it was time to re-imagine songs that have become synonymous with him as a solo artist or, before that, as lead singer for the Police. Adding swelling string arrangements or dramatic horn passages enable both the artist and the audience to gain a new perspective on the piece, since a larger orchestra can take a song like “King of Pain� and give it an entirely new sound without compromising the original music. �The song becomes new,� Sting told the Los Angeles Times. “Of course, writing new songs would be nice. But the old songs need to be kept alive, need to be regenerated, with new life blown into

them. With an orchestra, a pallet that large, you can literally re-create everything. The whole of my 120 songs, or however many songs I’ve written, seems available. I’m intrigued to hear them all this way.� The process of adding a classical element to Sting’s music began when the artist turned a bunch of his solo and group songs over to a group of musical arrangers and gave them broad, creative license to reanimate the music from top to bottom. Once the arrangements were complete, Sting rehearsed them with a group of New York City musicians, many of whom play with the New York Philharmonic or perform with the Metropolitan Opera. When Sting was satisfied with the sound, he turned the charts over to London’s Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra, which is accompanying him on “Symphonicity� tour under the baton of acclaimed American-born conductor Steven Mercurio. Although he used to sneak into British rock clubs to hear early rock acts like Cream and Jimi Hendrix, who ultimately influenced him as a performer and a writer, Sting, who’s still known to his family and oldest friends as Gordon Sumner, was always attracted to classical music. That’s why he’s so excited about reinventing his music in a classical style. “I’ve had a yearning to play classical music for a long time. I mean, I do play classical music — you just wouldn’t want to pay money to hear me play!� he said. “Nonetheless, I’ve learned a great deal from classical music. I enjoy it, and I’ve certainly stolen enough of it for my own music, so it’s payback time.� One thing Sting won’t be doing any time soon will be another reunion with the Police. Sting, Andy Summers and Stewart Copeland tried that in 2007. He compared reuniting with his former stage mates with “going back to a dysfunctional marriage.� n

Jungle Fever

‘Cirque Dreams: Jungle Fantasy’ — from the Boardwalk to Broadway and back again. By Lori Hoffman

F

ROM THE MOMENT HE CREATED his first Cirque Dreams extravaganza in 1993, producer/director Neil Goldberg wanted to bring his magical combination of athletic circus performers, extravagant sets, amazing costumes and music to Broadway. Thanks to an opportunity to develop his show Cirque Dreams: Jungle Fantasy at Trump Plaza in 2006, that dream came true for the native New Yorker when Jungle Fantasy opened on Broadway in June 2008. Now, his popular show has returned to Atlantic City at the Trump Taj Mahal, which renames its Xanadu Theater the “Cirque Dreams Theater� whenever a Cirque show takes over the space. The show is even more spectacular than during its 2006 run thanks to some Broadway worthy upgrades (see review on right of this page) and as always, the skill of the aerialists, acrobats, strongmen and jugglers who make the jungle setting come to life.

7bÂa 0OQY BVS \R /\\cOZ

In an interview with AC Weekly, Goldberg explains what’s new with Jungle Fantasy and how important the Atlantic City market has been for developing his shows.

Tell us about the new performers. There’s a really interesting bug-like character that crosses the stage and gets hooked up to this wire and does these amazing things on these wires. We have Jungle Fantasy was in Atlantic City origi- a trio of hula hoopers and that’s never nally, it went to Broadway and now it’s back. been done before — they are dressed as What changes had to be made for the return snakes. We have some really unique aerialists including some dressed as bumbleto A.C.? I’m so passionate about what I do that bees that do amazing things. It was a I look at every opportunity as a new challenge to fit them on the stage, but opportunity. The show had tremendous we did it. success on Broadway, mostly thanks to the support of the [Trump organization] giving me the opportunity to introduce it to the public at Trump Plaza. It then went out on the road and it was upgraded for Broadway, and all those upgrades for Broadway are in the show here at the Taj, as well as new performers that people haven’t seen before. As an artist I’m always looking to improve. The day I stop You search the globe for talent. Tell us about wanting to make the show better will be how you find your performers. I just spent a month in France and I went the day I stop doing this. to some of the [circus] schools and festivals there. There are many countries that support the arts and specifically the circus arts — France, Russia, Mongolia. I work year round with the Mongolian School of Contortion. We just started working with the Ethiopian circus school, cultivating and developing talent. We’ll bring those performers over in the fall. With the Internet and social media today, it is so much easier to connect with these organizations and governments. Sixteen years ago I had to fly to China and walk the Great Wall into Mongolia and watch 150 kids as their beacon of hope and opportunity to take their art form and earn a living and help support their families. That’s one of the things that is endearing and enriching about this whole process.

‘All those upgrades for Broadway are in the show here at the Taj.’

And now you’ve expanded that opportunity for performers. Last year I formed the Neil Goldberg Dream Foundation. What that foundation does is support the dreams and enrich the lives of the artists and families around the world that are looking for the opportunity to cultivate their talent and live out their dream. You also develop talent at your school in Florida. Yes, at the Dream Studio in Pompano Beach. Join us on Facebook:

facebook.com/ACWeekly

In early 2000 I developed and built that facility. It’s more of a training center than a school. When I find these performers from Mongolia, Russia, Ethiopia or the Ukraine, we bring them to Pompano Beach and train them in our style, and we put them in one of our shows. We’ll have seven of them running by the end of the year. (See video at acweekly.com) n

WELCOME

TO THE

‘JUNGLE’

There is definitely a Broadway upgrade in the background set for Cirque Dreams: Jungle Fantasy. It really has the feel of a fantastic fantasy world, and when the parade of costumed animals stroll across the set with their extravagant headgear — frogs, lizards, butterflies, elephants, and emus — that fantasy hits another gear. The visual appeal of these outfits, decked out with black-light phosphorescent accents, is more than matched by the main attraction of the show: the artists who demonstrate their athletic ability throughout the evening. This show is about athletes who take aerobics, balance and feats of strength to a new realm. Take the first showcase of acrobatics — jump roping taken to the extreme with flips, leaps, tumbles and other gymnastic feats done while an inner jumprope moves within an outer jump rope. This is “double Dutchâ€? like you’ve never scene before. Then there is the slack rope walker. You’ve heard of a tightrope. Well, a slack rope is just that, a rope that sags in the middle. Imagine trying to do balancing feats on that, dressed in a costume loaded with spikes. The artist looks like a bizarre red porcupine. What he does is beyond words, except that it does involve riding a unicycle on a slack rope. This act defines the clichĂŠ, “you have to see it to believe it.â€? Another terrific new act features trapeze artists who don’t use a trapeze. They toss and catch each other across the stage just using their legs and upper-arm strength for support. Add in the lighting, the music and the comedy bits, and Cirque Dreams: Jungle Fantasy provides true family fun in a casino setting for a more than reasonable price. — LH

July 4 Weekend Recap

HAT AN ACTION-PACKED July 4 holiday weekend in the Atlantic City area. With some of the biggest names in the music industry in Atlantic City — Lady Gaga, Sean “Diddy” Combs, and the Flaming Lips among them — it certainly wasn’t your typical July 4 weekend at the Jersey Shore. Fireworks may have lit up the skies around the region, but Lady Gaga and the Flaming Lips lit up the stages at Boardwalk Hall and the House of Blues’ Music Hall respectively on Sunday night, July 4. While the Flaming Lips dazzled the crowd at the House of Blues with giant balloons, lots of confetti shooting and an incredible performance — which featured Lips frontman Wayne Coyne first appearing on stage in a giant balloon in front of an X-rated, psychedelic video backdrop, before he rolled out into the audience for some big-balloon bodysurfing (see photo gallery at acweekly.com) — Lady Gaga finally made her Atlantic City debut, performing to a sold-out crowd at Boardwalk Hall. The concert was sponsored by the Borgata. According to reports Lady Gaga played her hits, including “Poker Face,” and did a lot of interacting with the audience. “You know I didn’t have a lot of friends in high school,” Gaga said. “They made fun of me. I just felt like a freak. You know what I told them? That I was going to be a star. A huge star.” She also asked the crowd: “Do you think I am sexy? I’m severely unconfident in myself so I kind of abuse this part of the show. So do you think I’m sexy?” From backstage, prior to the concert, she sent the following message out to her followers on Twitter: “Happy 4th of July little monsters! I can smell you from backstage. Lipstick, whiskey, and the rat pack. Fuck I love AC. X Mother Monster.” Lady Gaga’s insecurities were further expressed later in the show when she said: “I’m kind of like Tinkerbell from Peter Pan. If you don’t scream and clap for me I’ll die.” The officials at Harrah’s Resort in Atlantic City may have some doubts of their own pertaining to having hip-hop superstar Sean “Diddy” Combs return. Although Diddy played the House of Blues at Showboat on Saturday night, July 3, according to reports, police were forced

though the weekend went off without too many hitches. The beaches were packed, the sun was hot and the boardwalks were bustling. Even before his scheduled Pool at Harrah’s concert, Diddy was seen at the Tropicana’s IMAX theater on July 4 with 11 friends for the 5pm showing of The Twilight Saga: Eclipse. Meanwhile, Lady Gaga spent the July 4 day at the Borgata where she “relaxed in her suite and had a little fun with family and friends, even trying her hand at the blackjack tables in the casino,” according to a spokesperson for the Borgata. The Lady Gaga after the show partygoers hit SUNBAR at The Water Club as

Like Gaga, Diddy used his Twitter account to contact fans, saying: “The party was so crazy I couldn’t even get in! 10 thousand people showed up. Damn I was ready to party!” Aside from the trouble that ensued at Harrah’s Resort, which led to the cancellation of the Diddy show, it appeared as

well as MIXX, where Steve Aoki put on “a sizzling spinning display.” Popular blogger Perez Hilton hosted the party. He later blogged about the Diddy fiasco, ending his entry with the somewhat hypocritcal statement: “Sucks for his 1,800 peeps! Rowdy guidos ruin everything, huh?” On Friday night, July 2, The Danny Eyer Band backed New Orleans great Johnny Sansone at a benefit concert for those affected by the BP oil disaster, held at Sandi Pointe in Somers Point. (Sansone will be appearing on the Somers Point beach Friday, July 9, from 7-9pm, as part of the free summer beach concert series.) Other successful events over the holiday weekend included an appearance by ’80s singer Stacey Q at Resorts’ Boogie Nights on July 3 and a Nervous Beach Party at the Hilton Beach Bar on July 4. ■

Hilton Goes Prime Time Rock ‘n’ roll meets classy cuisine at the new Simon Prime steakhouse By Frank Gabriel Kerry Simon in Atlantic City

menu; it’s softer and more feminine than perhaps any steakhouse we’ve visited. Not wimpy feminine either folks. More like gorgeous, fiercely feminine. Think Artemis, Greek Goddess of the Hunt (Apollo’s twin sis) and you’ll be on the right track. The tiny coils of shrimp, well over a dozen, had been tossed in a psychedelic bright orange sauce, possessing just the right level of capsicum kick. Swirled around the edges was another sauce, this a cooling green-hued take on ranch. My oysters were a trio of healthy bivalves, presented, like the shrimp, on a long, narrow plate. Loaded with a thick coat of what appeared to be panko breadcrumbs, they were flamed to a crusty golden brown.

Digging within, the classic combination of creamy spinach (Pernod?), salty bacon and buttery, tarragon-infused bÊarnaise sauce took over. There’s a reason certain dishes remain timeless in the truest sense of that word, and this version of Rockefeller demonstrates why. From among about a half-dozen salads, we opted to split a lobster Cobb. Just like my oysters, this brought a stirring cover of a venerable standard. Each of our plates contained plenty of lobster — my dining partner, the claw and myself, tail meat — plus a toss of field greens surrounded by chunked avocado, red and yellow tomato, bacon, softboiled egg and fragrant Roquefort. As a main, my companion’s halibut fillet looked like the product of some-

one with the knife skills of an Apache warrior. A razor-sharp cube of white meat, cleansed of any residual blood line, pale ivory. The roasted flatfish remained moist, presented atop a divan of black rice, surrounded by roasted tomato and parsley/garlic chimichurri sauce. Great to look at, satisfying to consume, thanks to the dense, hearty halibut. Now, we know what you’re thinking: This is after all, a steakhouse, right? But don’t worry. They’ve got yer steak. In triplicate, actually. Meaning that Simon Prime offers a trio of beefy options: prime wet-aged from Creekstone Farms, Wagyu (the same breed as Japanese Kobe) from Snake River Farms and prime dry-aged corn-fed Black Angus. That’s almost as much a mouthful as my selection, the gargantuan tomahawk ribeye, from the final of those three options. Served up complete with a foot-long, curving rib bone, this Flintstone throwback goes straight to front of the line among the region’s most eye-popping cuts of beef. Packed around the business end of that steer’s rib was a massive, entire round of ribeye, seared to a requested Pittsburgh rare. Words will fail me should I try to articulate the intense array of flavor profiles present in this steak, so I shan’t. Suffice it to say that if you consider yourself to be a serious steak eater, this is a bucket list gastronomic event. Desserts, notably my warm strawberry pie, sent us home carrying lots more food than we expected. n E-mail Frank Gabriel at fgabriel@acweekly.com see more online @

HEN FIRST HEARING ABOUT Simon Prime — one of Atlantic City’s newest steakhouses and first local venture from high-profile chef Kerry Simon — we couldn’t help but wonder how it could possibly establish a unique identity in a town that has become replete with carnivorian shrines. After dining in the initial month the restaurant existed, those questions have been answered. Located within the Hilton Casino Resort’s remade and remodeled restaurant level, Simon Prime takes a playful approach to the often-too-serious steakhouse concept. One of the first things you’ll notice are the servers clad in definitively oldschool Chuck Taylor black canvas hightop sneakers. You can’t help but smile. Then, entering the glass-walled restaurant, its design and scale are not exactly what leaps to mind when thinking “steakhouse.� And that seems exactly the point. The chef and management have conceived a wholeheartedly different niche. Spread out across a single plane of floor, with only the centrally positioned maitre’d podium encroaching, the venue is simultaneously open yet intimate. Booths covered with soft leather and steer hide create an atmosphere reinforcing the bill of fare. Our opening salvo from the kitchen came in the form of oysters Rockefeller and Buffalo-style rock shrimp. Which brings us to another quirk about the

VER THE LAST FEW MONTHS, most of the late night television attention has been paid to either Jay Leno, Conan O’Brien or David Letterman. But don’t forget about a charismatic humorist, who hosts The Late, Late Show on CBS following Letterman. There are many common denominators which connect the top dogs of late night TV. What helps Ferguson, an easygoing Scottish comic-actor, is that there is no one else like him. “I’m just me out there,” Ferguson tells Atlantic City Weekly. “I don’t follow what anyone else does. I think that helps me.” Part of Ferguson’s charm is that he delivers jokes in a manner that’s practically good- natured. “I’m just having fun doing what I do,” Ferguson says. “I don’t think I come off as mean spirited.” Ferguson’s targets can usually take his assaults and he avoids easy prey. “I’ll let other people go on and on about Paris Hilton and those like her,” Ferguson says. “There are other things for me to go on about. That’s too simple now.” Self-deprecating humor is a Ferguson specialty. Ferguson often pokes at his bout with alcoholism, two divorces and his standing in the late night chatfest world. “I’m comfortable taking shots at myself,” Ferguson says. “Unfortunately poking fun at yourself is a lost art. It’s funnier than the big penis jokes. I do have my share of penis jokes, but there is something about poking at yourself. There’s something about being vulnerable up there. I think people can relate to the personal jabs. We’re not perfect. We’re all just human. Sometimes things don’t work out and sometimes what doesn’t work out is funny.” Ferguson, 48, who will perform Friday, July 9, at the Tropicana Showroom in Atlantic City, hits the road as often as he can when he’s not on the set, much like his late night talk show host peer Leno. “Being a stand-up comic is who I am,” Ferguson says. “I love doing it. It remains a great deal of fun. I’m fortunate that I can do [stand-up concerts] and the show.” You can expect quite a bit of improv from Ferguson onstage whether he’s at a

theater or while doing his monologue on The Late Late Show. “It’s not surprising if you do improv at a theater, but it surprises people that I do it on my television show,” Ferguson says. “It’s not the usual way to go. But it’s more natural for me to go this way. I didn’t start out this way, but I really enjoy it. You never know where I’m going to go.” The man, who has made the phrase “cheeky monkey,” part of the late night television lexicon, enjoys returning to the Garden State since, if he has time, Ferguson visits Kearney, N.J. “I often drive there since it’s like a little Scotland,” Ferguson says. “It’s filled with

all of these Scottish things. I go there and remember why I left Scotland. It’s just funny there is a place like that in New Jersey. Crazy world, isn’t it?” Perhaps Ferguson would still be in Scotland if his career in music took off during the 1980s. Ferguson was the drummer for the Glaswegian act, the Dreamboys. “If that band took off, who knows what would have happened,” Ferguson says. “The more I think about it, I’d be dead if I stayed in a band. I would have died in the late ’80s or early ’90s. Fortunately, I was a total failure as a musician.” But Ferguson’s ear is still good and

he often breaks musicians before any of his peers. “I think it’s fun to have great musicians on before anyone else does,” Ferguson says. “I remember having [fellow Scot] Paolo Nutini on I think before anyone else. It’s exciting helping break talent.” Ferguson’s favorite guest is a bit of a surprise. “You know who was great? Sir Ben Kingsley,” he says. “He was a lot of fun. He was fantastic. He did a sketch and had a laugh. Sam Jackson is a great guest too.” Having fine guests makes it easy for Ferguson. However, he’s at his best when subjects are dull or difficult. “That’s part of the job,” Ferguson says. “That’s a challenge. I’ll tell you what makes for a great or good guest. Someone who doesn’t take themselves too seriously. Someone who doesn’t mention their book 20 times. Nobody wants to hear Healthy Salads for Large Asses 20 times. The audience heard it. They got the message.” Ferguson has that rare Johnny Carsonesque gift, which is to shine a light on his guests, rather than race them to the punchline. “That’s the key to being a good talk show host. It’s like hosting a party. You want to make sure everyone has a good time.” The clever Ferguson stays as topical as he can on television and on tour. “Sometimes it’s easy and some days you have to work a little harder,” Ferguson explains. “When Dick Cheney shot his lawyer in the face, it was like, ‘well, there’s the show tonight.’ It’s a lot of fun checking out what’s happening in the news. Normally every day there is a good bit to work with. I try to make sure it’s fun for the studio and television audience.” The same can be said for those who check out Ferguson’s live stand-up show. “It’s all about having fun,” Ferguson says. “It doesn’t make a difference if you watch my [TV] show or if you come to see me live. I want everyone to laugh and have a good time.” ■

Fangs for the Memories It’s ‘Twilight’ time again as the third chapter adds emotional depth

BELOW: Twilight Saga: Eclipse

By Lori Hoffman

T

HE TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE is the best of the Twilight films to date. The third film in the popular book series provides a strong layer of emotional complexity to the Twihard’s favorite love triangle and some enjoyable, sly humor. Whether you want Bella (Kristen Stewart) to stick with her vampire man Edward (Robert Pattinson), or make the reasonable choice and remain human as the leader of the wolfpack’s main squeeze — the battle for her emotional soul makes for a strong backbone to the storyline. Bella is still in danger and things do heat up with Jacob (Taylor Lautner) as she feels the tug of emotions between her two non-human suitors. The plot is a lot of fun, involving a peace treaty between the werewolves and the Cullen clan, in order to stop an army of newly minted Twilight Saga: Eclipse ★★★★ Directed by David Slade; rated PG-13 The Last Airbender ★★★★ Directed by M. Night Shyamalan; rated PG

vampires organized by Victoria (Bryce Dallas Howard) to get revenge on Bella. It’s a nice mix of comedy and action, especially with the running gag of Jacob appearing shirtless early and often so Jacob fanatics can howl about his hot abs, and Edward can moan, “Don’t you own a shirt?” The emotional bond and respect that develops between Edward and Jacob in the famous “tent” scene is another aspect of the third film that brings more depth to the storyline. Director David Slade, who helmed the taut indie drama Hard Candy, has a good feel for the intimate scenes and his action sequences — in particular the big vampirewerewolf showdown — deliver more emotional punch than most standard CGI confrontations. With the continuity of screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg, who has adapted all three Twilight movies from Stephanie Meyer’s books, Eclipse is one of this summer’s better offerings at the multiplex.

than a lot of other critics and defended his work in Signs, the time has come to admit that he got lucky with Sixth Sense and we overrated his talent. While The Last Airbender is better than such recent duds as Lady in the Water and The Happening, it still comes up way short. This should be an epic fantasy tale. OK, while we didn’t expect the heights of the Lord of the Rings trilogy or even the Tales of Narnia, did it have to be this flat and dull? The special effects are far from special, the acting (except for Dev Patel) is atrocious and the story has all the complexity of a fifth-grade English paper. Thank goodness Cliff Curtis has such a small role in the film — I love him and I don’t want to hate him for being so bad with such forgettable dialogue. The young man who gets stuck in the title role, Noah Ringer, is terrible. Why was he even cast? He has zero charisma. And, in the filmmaker’s arrogance, he apparently planned a series of films before the first Another M. Night Flop We’ve been patient with M. Night one was out. The movie’s story is more Shyamalan. After he gave us The Sixth like a set-up for the better, second film, Sense, we expected great things from when the big battle will actually take him. While I liked Unbreakable more place.

Will there even be a second film? I wouldn’t be shocked, but I’m not expecting anything good anymore from Shyamalan. Maybe that way he will surprise me with a better effort if he gets handed another chance. ■
