It’s already booked an HBO After Dark boxing match in the TV-friendly venue, and it’s announcing new headliners on an almost-daily basis: Chris Tucker, Reba McIntyre, Depeche Mode, Harry Connick Jr., Blink 182, Toby Keith, Pat Benatar and Neil Giraldo and John Legend. At the same time, it’s finally making good on Revel’s opening-day promise to get plenty of use out of The Social, a 450-seat showroom smack in the middle of the casino floor. The room was modeled after the Wolf Den, a similar venue former Revel CEO Kevin DeSanctis installed on the casino floor at Mohegan Sun in Connecticut, which he ran more than a decade ago. The initial plan for The Social was to use it as much as possible to present everything from appearances by popular authors and chefs, to showcasing young comedians and singers and to turn the room into a nightclub during the evening. But the room rarely got much use during Revel’s first year of operation. Now, it’s got two shows running six days a week: Wayne Hoffman, a mentalist and illusionist who performs daily at noon and 2pm, and the production show Cirque Dreams: Revealed, a show patterned after the popular Cirque du Soleil franchise that features athletic entertainers performing stunts that seem to defy the basic laws of human anatomy. “Cirque Dreams has played this market many times over the years, but hasn’t been here for four or five years,” Dillon says of the show produced by Neil Goldberg out of Fort Lauderdale, Fla. Because it’s being staged in such a small room, Dillon says the effects are even more magnified because of the performers’ proximity to the audience. “Some of these acts look like they’re going to jump right into your lap you’re so close to them,” he says. Revel dug itself into a financial hole from the get-go with an initial marketing strategy that emphasized all of the property’s amenities except the casino. Now, it’s back to basics for the casino’s new marketing team — and that begins with taking advantage of summer’s drawing power. “The summer time is when you have to make it or break it,” Dillon says, reciting an old but time-honored business approach to the Jersey shore. “This whole promotion that we’re doing — ‘Gamblers Wanted,’ ‘You Can’t Lose’ and now a new one, the ‘Free Ride’ promotion — in conjunction with the entertainment — that’s bringing a lot more people in here.” n
“Some of these acts look like they’re going to jump right into your lap.”

o Bernie Dillon, who cut his teeth in the casino business working for what was, at the time, one of the world’s most successful gambling halls, luring gamblers to a casino really isn’t a very complicated process. “It’s not rocket science,” says Dillon, who recently became an entertainment consultant to Revel Casino. “We just have to bring back the gamblers that haven’t been coming to this property.” Dillon should certainly know how to do that. He made his bones in the gaming business as one of Donald Trump’s executives at Trump Plaza during the late 1980s and early ’90s, when it was one of the world’s highest-grossing and most successful casinos. Overseeing the entertainment product there, Dillon was one of the leading point people for everything from the 93-second Mike TysonMichael Spinks boxing match to the Rolling Stones’ three-night North American pay-perview finale of the band’s “Steel Wheels” tour to Wrestlemania IV and V at Boardwalk Hall. Now, after a long run in a similar position at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Fla., where he booked everyone from Bruce Springsteen to Frankie Valli and just about every major star in between, Dillon has come home to roost. The Port Republic resident, who almost singlehandedly kept Spirit Airlines in business as he commuted between south Florida and his Atlantic County home, is back on the Boardwalk. And he’s facing what is probably the biggest challenge of his career. Booking acts, attractions and major events for casinos that were already uber-successful was a piece of cake. Now he’s charged with the responsibility of doing the same thing for Revel, a casino that — and there’s no nice way to put this — hasn’t been able to draw flies since opening 16 months ago. Working with Revel’s new management team, Dillon is doing the opposite of what the casino’s previous regime envisioned for the property. Rather than saving Ovation Hall, perhaps the sweetest, best-sounding 5,000-seat arena in country, for only mega-acts, Revel has stepped up its booking policy in a big way. While the casino is still looking to make a big score if it can attract an act like Beyoncé, who christened the room with four shows last summer, Revel is loading up on artists who have proven themselves in Atlantic City as performers who can put butts in the seats, entertain them and send them off to the gaming tables and slot machines after the show.

he first International DJ Expo was presented by DJ Times magazine back in 1990. Celebrating its 23rd anniversary, the expo, one of the best attended and highest profile events in the DJ stratosphere, according to the mag (djtimes. com), returns to Atlantic City Aug. 12-15, setting up shop at the Trump Taj Mahal. Along with after-parties and special performances — and a few as-yet unannounced surprises — expo attendees will be able to participate in more than 25 educational seminars and hands-on technology workshops and visit more than 100 booths from the world’s leading manufacturers in audio, lighting, studio and specialty products, featuring the “very latest cutting-edge technology.” There will also be opportunities to network with industry professionals while learning about the latest DJ gear and trends. While attendees can purchase DJ equipment, accessories and supplies at “special deals you won’t find anywhere else,” there will also be “giveaways galore,” including the “Ultimate DJ System.” In addition to nighttime showcases and sponsor events — including a Pizzafest party slated for Tuesday, Aug. 13, starting at 6pm (featuring DJ Kool, pictured) inside the Taj Mahal’s Xanadu venue, located next to the Casbah club where the Expo will be held — there will be performances during the expo, including a live appearance by former Gang Starr member and highly touted producer DJ Premier (Aug. 13, 3:30pm, Booth 500). You never know what — or who — will come out of the DJ Expo. In 2008, for instance, a then-unknown Lady Gaga opened a talent showcase held during the event. Back when the event celebrated its 20th anniversary in A.C., Vinny Testa, publisher of DJ Times, told AC Weekly that the expo is geared not only for young DJs and trendsetters on the club scene, but also for “mobile DJs.” “This is very much for the DJ who works a wedding,” said Testa. “They are what we call mobile DJs and they’re the backbone of the industry. You know, a lot of very famous DJs started off with weddings and bar mitzvahs.”
Deckstock Revisits the ‘Summer of Love’ By Ray Schweibert
I
n the summer of 2009, musician, event producer and former pro football player Gary Weinlein created a multiband tribute show to honor the 40th anniversary of probably the best-known music festival in world history, Woodstock. Dubbed the Woodstock Era Experience, Weinlein, who also performs the part of Ian Anderson in a Jethro Tull tribute act, says on the show’s Web site (woodstockeraexperience.com), “The experience is not just for the memory of the songs, it is to recreate the actual visual and feel of what a concert was like to see and hear from that era. The visuals and sounds of this show takes you on a musical journey that allows you to experience some of the greated rock-and-roll ever created in a live-concert performance.” On Saturday, Aug. 10, the Golden Nugget will host its own personalized version of Weinlein’s production called Deckstock, which will recreate the sounds of some of the most famous rock-and-roll legends of the Woodstock era, among them the Mamas and the Papas, Jefferson Airplane, Janis Joplin, Dusty Springfield, the Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, Jethro Tull, The Doors, Simon and Garfunkel and others. Deckstock will take place from 2-10pm Saturday. As hippie peace activist Wavy Gravy said during Woodstock in 1969, “We must be in heaven, man!”

Young Entrepreneur Has Huge Heart By Ray Schweibert
M
alcolm “Matt” Matheson likes to have fun just as any typical 13-year-old does, but the Egg Harbor Township middle-schooler also inherited the selfless and caring nature that is clearly ingrained in the framework of his family. Before he was born, Matt’s mother and father routinely ran food, clothing and toy drives for underprivileged children in Brazil, his mother’s homeland. This inspired him to start a crusade he calls the “Shred the Loaf Drive” in which he raises money, through custom designing skateboards, bikes and clothing (a skill handed down from his father, who restores and customizes hot rods), in order to send orphaned children in Brazil their own custom skateboards and equipment. “The last time I was in Brazil I went with my mom to an orphanage to deliver a load of toys we had collected,” he says on his Web site, shredtheloaf.com. “This made me very happy to help these kids [but] it also made me very sad that they had so little and I had so much. That is why I decided to bring skateboards, pads and helmets to the orphans of Brazil. My ‘mission’ is for every skateboard, helmet and pad I sell, I will build one custom skateboard to take to the orphans of Brazil.” His dad, Rande, and younger brother, Altamiro, help customize the merchandise in their EHT shop, called Club Rio Designs. Visit shredtheloaf.com, call 412-4948, or stop by the shop at 3003 English Creek Ave, Suite A4 in EHT.
Dolphins, MMSC Need Your Help Aug. 11 By Ray Schweibert
D
uring an unfortunate summer when dolphin fatalities have been much higher than normal (21 in N.J. since July 9; over 40 in the state of Virginia), the annual Dancing with Dolphins Island Beach Party to benefit Brigantine’s Marine Mammal Stranding Center holds more significance than probably ever before. The event is scheduled for Sunday, Aug. 11, from 7-10pm at One Atlantic Events on the top floor of The Pier Shops at Caesars. In a statement, MMSC director Bob Schoelkopf said that at least four dead dolphins tested positive for a fatal virus. “Dolphins swim close together in pods; diseases spread between animals when they surface to breathe,” Schoelkopf said in a state DEP press release. Funds raised through the party will allow the MMSC to continue and improve its capacity to respond and provide humane care to stranded marine mammals and sea turtles through improved equipment, medical care, staff training, enhanced and increased resources for rehabilitating animals, and promotion of public awareness through education. Tickets are $75 per person ($50 for MMSC members) and include a complimentary wine reception with light fare, live music by the Jim Craine Trio, MMSC membership, a cash bar and a silent auction. The grand prize is a date with Prince Lorenzo Borghese — an animal advocate born of Italian royalty and the featured bachelor on the ninth season of The Bachelor. “When he heard about the Marine Mammal Stranding Center and our loss of funds [due to Hurricane Sandy and other unexpected expenditures] he asked ‘How can I help you?’” says the MMSC’s Sheila Dean. Visit mmsc.org for more details or e-mail development@mmsc.org.

Cool Days, Hot Nights
Playing off a successful concept from a couple of summers ago, Mia is hosting the second of three dining-into-nightlife events Aug. 10 at Caesars. By Ray Schweibert • feedback@acweekly.com
L
ocated in the center of Caesars’ lobby and certainly one of Atlantic City’s more uniquely designed restaurants, with high ceilings surrounded by Roman columns bordered by a fenced-in café/patio area, Mia’s potential for more than just dining was noted by local humanitarian Gary Hill when it first opened about eight years ago. “I love the space at Mia — it has depth, focus and an intimate lounge-clubby look,” said Hill prior to an event celebrating the establishment’s first full summer in A.C. in 2006. Chef/owner Chris Scarduzio either had the same thought or heeded Hill’s advice, as Mia has often made the most of its socially accommodating ambience over the last few years, most recently with a series of dining-intonightlife experiences called “Cool By Day, Hot By Night.” The first went well, according to Scarduzio, and the second is this Saturday, Aug. 10, from 10pm “until the party ends.” “We first did it a couple of years ago [in a recurring weekend concept called “Mia After Dark”] and it turned out to be something people really enjoyed,” says Scarduzio, who also owns the 10,000 square-foot Table 31 restaurant in Philly’s Comcast Center. “It’s right there in the center of [Caesars’] lobby, it draws a lot of attention, and it’s a great space that can be used for as lot of different things. “We wanted to try to meet the demands, capture the younger crowd, keep the diners there and make sure they’re experiencing the property in many different ways,” adds Scarduzio. “The first one [July 27] was a lot of fun and I’m really looking forward to the next two.” The last event is scheduled for Aug. 31 although the series may be expanded into late summer if the demand is still there. A latenight lounge menu and Patron-sponsored cocktails are available for guests, with bottle service offered once a full-scale party vibe is
under way. Providing the entertainment for all the events is South Philly DJ Eddie Tully, who has worked a series of gigs for Scarduzio at a popular Table 31 Happy hour that routinely brings in 2,000 people per week. “Some restaurants are hesitant to bring in DJs, but I have a bit of a forte playing restaurants and lounges,” says Tully. “I try to ease the mood first and then build the night up as it goes along. Once the last dinner service is over people tend to make their way to the bar and hang around, then [the staff] starts clearing away tables and bringing in an awesome sound system that turns the place into not quite a nightclub, but certainly more of a party atmosphere. “When I’m playing over dinner I’ll look for music that sets the mood and gets them grooving a little bit,” says Tully. “As the night Chef/owner Chris Scarduzio progresses, I’ll keep an eye on the crowd and see what they react to, mixing it up and playing a bunch of different genres. I try to bring an eclectic mix of both familiar songs and new stuff — something that everyone can enjoy.” The house DJ at Philly’s Stratus Rooftop Lounge on the 11th floor of the Hotel Monaco, Tully also travels extensively as a DJ and says that the concept Mia is employing is popular nationwide. “Providing that middle ground, or a place where you can enjoy a meal, socialize with friends over a couple of cocktails, listen to good music and get up and dance if you want to, it’s very popular in cities like Chicago, New York, Miami, Las Vegas,” says Tully. “But for us in the central East Coast area, those places are not real common. So I hope this works out for the best because it’s a great concept that offers an opportunity that few others do. “There’s no cover, it’s open to anyone over 21, the crowd is usually nicely dressed, upscale and out to have a good time. It’s pretty exciting for me to be part of it.” ■

Sensual ‘Cirque’ Revealed
Revel’s Social venue hosts double shot of mind & body fun with ‘Cirque Dreams Revealed’, Wayne Hoffman’s ‘Mind Candy’ By Lori Hoffman • feedback@acweekly.com

AUGUST 8 - 14, 2013 • ATLANTIC CITY WEEKLY
A
fter hosting mostly DJs and music groups weekend nights, new Revel entertainment consultant Bernie Dillon has transforms the casino floor’s The Social venue into a newly energized performance space. Filling that space are shows that emphasize the attributes of both the mind and body. The mind half of the double shot of fun is mentalist/illusionist Wayne Hoffman’s Mind Candy, which takes the early afternoon shift with shows at noon and 2pm. The “body” portion is handled beautifully by producer Neil Goldberg’s Cirque Dreams Revealed, a sexy, intimate 65-minutes take on the classic Cirque elements of balance artists, aerialists, gymnasts, contortionists and jugglers. Ivan Kane’s burlesque dancers could get a few tips from these prime athletes who are doing the same wonderful feats we’ve come to expect from a Cirque Dreams show, but in more revealing costumes and extra bump and grind dance moves to heighten the natural sensuality of their bodies in motion. Since the performers are right in the middle of the audience with an “in-the-round” setup, that sexy side of the show is literally right in your face so this is a Cirque Dreams show unlike any other that has performed in Atlantic City in the last 20 years. The enthusiastic producer of the Cirque Dreams dynasty, Goldberg explains to Atlantic City Weekly that Dillon asked for a show that was sexier and edgier. “Bernie

a gasp from the audience when Grynchuk lets go of Kovalenko for a second, creating a mini bungee jump. In what could be called the Cirque Dreams version of Flashdance, Petru Vasilachi of Moldova does what is called an aerial water ballet, flying above and then into a tub partially filled with water. Those closest to the central stage got wet and wild with his sensual moves. The big finish for the show is a crowding pleasing act with more than a hint of 1970s roller boogie thanks to the roller skating husband and wife team of Adriana and Valentin Marinescu from Romania. Goldberg explains that the roller teams are so popular he has three them playing in various show around the country. In the small space of the round stage, they do some dazzling spinning and strength moves that had me dizzy just watching them. Add in the fun music, the sexy sax player/ pied piper for the show, Anna Pulysheva, and the body revealing costumes and Cirque Dreams Revealed is a dazzling 65-minutes of athlete prowess and theatrical flair.
Wayne Hoffman’s ‘Mind Candy’
‘With the performers so close to the audience you can see how well conditioned and what superb athletes they are.’ Dillon came to us and wanted a sexy and intimate feel. With the performers so close to the audience you can see how well conditioned and what superb athletes they are. The audience gets to sit so close that they feel like they can reach out and touch the artist. You can see their focus and concentration and the intensity.” Goldberg enjoyed the challenge of making a show to fit in the round, selecting performers whose skills were uniquely suited to the format. New to Atlantic City, and as Goldberg revealed, a new addition to the Cirque Dreams family, Shenea Booth is an American two-time world champion in acrobatic gymnastics, a USA Gymnastics Hall of Fame inductee and a finalist on the TV show America’s Got Talent. Her balance and strength performance is remarkable and up close you can see how much power is packed into her body. As always featuring an international feel, Russia’s Olga Gaeva is a foot juggler, doing remarkable feats of spinning and juggling objects with her feet, including a base fid-
dle. The Mongolian sisters, Buyankhishig and Erdenesuvd Ganbaatar, have been with Cirque Dreams since 2005 and have been regular performers at Cirque Dreams shows in Atlantic City. This time they did some of their amazing contortionist moves while performing as aerialists. As Goldberg explains, his performers are constantly working to improve their performances and add new elements. Another outstanding performer is Italy’s Steacy Girabaldi who is a ladder manipulator. If you think it is hard to walk on stilts, try hopping on a single sided ladder and walk backwards. Girabaldi does it but it takes a lot of effort. I’ve never been a fan of aerial silks. Those are the guys that wrap their arms in silks hanging from the ceiling and fly into the audience. The silk team of Iurii Grynchuk and Viktoria Kovalenko from the Ukraine brings a new twist to the discipline. For one thing Kovalenko is a trained ballerina and starts her presentation on pointe. When the two start doing their aerial show, they bring
Going from the body to the mind, mentalist and illusionist Wayne Hoffman presents an intriguing and totally “how-did-he-dothat?” presentation of sleight of hand, and psychological stunts with a relaxed, low-key approach. He amazes the audience with his ability to predict what they will do. He asks the crowd at one point to think of a name, object or number and then proceeds to pick out audience participants and tell them what they were thinking about. In one of his showcase moments, he tells one woman she is thinking of her cell phone number and proves it by dialing a number on his phone and having her phone ring. Hoffman’s two biggest “wow” moments involves two sisters and a can of Coke respectively. He takes two sisters onstage, puts them at opposite ends of the stage facing each other with their eyes closed. He then “connects their aura,” and proceeds to touch one sister while the other mimics where her sister is being touched. At the end of the presentation both sisters swear they were the one being touched. In the sleight of hand finale Hoffman takes an open can of Coke and rotates his hand around the can to “go back in time” until the can is resealed and full again. Hoffman’s demeanor while playing his mind games is laidback and personable, which adds to the enjoyment. The Revel Casino Hotel’s own transformation has certainly been enhanced by this mind & body upgrade at The Social. ■ see more online @

‘Pop’ Goes the Borgata
28 West (Lambs Club) The Borgata, Atlantic City
NYC’s Lambs Club to be recreated by Iron Chef Geoffrey Zakarian for one weekend only — a delectable first for Atlantic City. By Frank Gabriel • feedback@acweekly.com

tlantic City’s continuing culinary evolution will embrace yet another major milestone later this month when the Borgata plays host to a first in our region: the introduction of a one-weekend-only, “pop-up” restaurant on Aug. 16-18. The concept behind this sort of short-term opening, often utilized to introduce a new chef or owner, has been popularized in major metropolitan areas for the last decade or so. Tech-savvy diners typically make use of social media — Facebook, Twitter, blogs and the like — to obtain info and details about these sorts of eateries. Their specialized business model allows entrepreneurial types to present talents to the public without the high cost of actually opening permanently. Like its cousin the food truck, pop ups are a particularly effective way for young chefs and owners to gain exposure in the field of hospitality as they seek investors and attention necessary to open a restaurant or another culinary concept. However, Borgata’s point person for this weekend isn’t exactly a wide-eyed rookie. Instead, he’s one of the most respected figures in modern American food: Geoffrey Zakarian. Having previously signed on to conceptualize and oversee food and beverage at Borgata’s sister property, The Water Club, in 2007, Zakarian — a recent addition to the Food Network’s pantheon of Iron Chefs — is already firmly entrenched here. For this venture, he will recreate an existing establishment, The Lambs Club. Opened in the fall of 2010 at the Chatwal Hotel in New York City, The Lambs Club is housed in an historic building that dates back to 1905. Originally a clubhouse for America’s first professional theater club, called “The Lambs,” it once entertained luminaries the likes of W.C. Fields, Charlie Chaplin, John Barrymore, Spencer Tracy and Fred Astaire. The hotel’s Web site explains: “These infamous notables spent many a night in their ‘grill room’ swapping tales, breaking into song and of course, generally having a swell time.” This provides a serendipitous sort of Zen to Zakarian’s homage,

This provides a serendipitous sort of Zen to Zakarian’s homage, as Atlantic City’s long and storied history of entertainment and celebrity creates a unique, fitting backdrop for staging The Lambs Club locally. as Atlantic City’s long and storied history of entertainment and celebrity creates a unique, fitting backdrop for staging The Lambs Club locally. His bill of fare is equally starry, reading like a gastronome’s wish list: canapés of scallop boudin with lemon pudding and bacon/shallot marmalade, cauliflower mousseline or arancini with rosemary and taleggio cheese, starters including salmon tartare, a terrine of foie gras or heirloom tomato and lobster salad and main courses of prime Creekstone Delmonico steak, rib eye of lamb, slow-cooked sea bass and a Chatham salt cod risotto. (See attached sidebar for full menu.) The location chosen will be the casually elegant 28 West. Seatings begin at 5:30 each of the three evenings and the four-course, prix-fixe meal is priced at a very reasonable $89 per person.
But that’s not all that the peripatetic Zakarian has in store for Atlantic City’s denizens. He will also play host to a culinary demonstration at 1pm on Saturday, Aug. 17, in the Borgata’s Music Box; in addition to signing his Town/Country cookbook on both Saturday and Sunday (Aug. 17-18) at 2:30pm in 28 West. All are organized under the umbrella of the Savor Borgata Culinary Series, with additional upcoming events set to include Borgata’s Executive Pastry Chef Thaddeus DuBois hosting “Cool Summer Desserts” in the Borgata Bake Shop at 3pm ($39 per ticket) on Aug. 24 and on Sept. 14 David Venable (QVC’s In The Kitchen With David) will host a culinary demonstration inside the Music Box (2pm; $35 per ticket) and sign his cookbook at 28 West (3:30pm, cookbook on sale for $30). n

Peter Frampton’s ‘Guitar Circus’ juggles three acts — Frampton, B.B. King and Sonny Landreth — in one superstar show, which stops at the Taj Mahal Aug. 10. By Ed Condran • feedback@acweekly.com
46
AUGUST 8 - 14, 2013 • ATLANTIC CITY WEEKLY
W
hen Peter Frampton is asked about the death of the live album, the onetime mega-pop star just groans. The British singer-songwriter’s first few albums had little commercial success. But then Frampton’s life changed dramatically when Frampton Comes Alive dropped in 1976. The album sold more than six million copies in the United States and yielded such hits as “Show Me The Way,” “Baby, I Love Your Way” and “Do You Feel Like We Do.” “I can’t say why the studio versions of the songs that became hits weren’t successful,” Frampton says while calling from Nashville. “All I can think of when I hear the recordings from [the San Francisco venue] Winterland is that there is so much passion and energy.” That’s also why Cheap Trick’s Live At Budokan and Kiss’ Alive helped bands with a degree of success become arena rock stars during the mid-1970s. “The funny thing is how it was back then,” Frampton tells Atlantic City Weekly prior to his Aug. 10 tour stop of Frampton’s Guitar Circus at the Trump Taj Mahal. “Live albums didn’t count as part of your record deal, but that particular album turned my career around and I was told that wasn’t part of my deal.”
facebook.com/ACWeekly @acweekly
‘I love being out there with people who can really play guitar. It doesn’t get any better than B.B. King and Sonny Landreth.’ The disc didn’t just turn Frampton into a star. He became as ubiquitous as pin-up/ actress Farrah Fawcett. He sold out venues as large as Philadelphia’s late but unlamented JFK Stadium, which held more than 100,000 people. “I remember playing there and it was wild to see people as far as you could see,” Frampton says. “I was looking out into a city within a city. It was an incredible accomplishment. The sound in a place like that couldn’t be very good. Being able to play that was all due to Frampton Comes Alive. “That will probably be the biggest album of my career,” Frampton says. Yes, that’s a safe bet as Frampton, 63, enters the twilight years and albums certainly don’t sell like they use to a generation ago. “This is a very disposable era,” Frampton, who resides in Ohio, says. “People don’t lis-
ten and purchase music like they used to.” But they do buy concert tickets. And Frampton still performs the old hits. “The fans want to hear those songs and I still enjoy playing them,” Frampton says. “So why not play them? I never get tired of playing those songs. I think they really stand up to the test of time.” But Frampton’s unsung material, particularly recent tunes, reminds fans that he is a very good guitarist and songsmith with considerable ability and laudable taste. Fingerprints, his 2006 album, is comprised of instrumentals that run the gamut from R&B to to jazz to funk. 2010’s Thank You, Mr. Churchill finds Frampton offering prog-rock and blues tunes. It’s a far cry from his pop days but then again so was his work with the ’60s blues act Humble Pie. “People forget or don’t realize that I was a
guitarist first and then I became a singer,” Frampton says. “I never wanted to become a singer. I knew way back when I was no Steve Marriott or Paul Rodgers, but you steal from the best and I stole from Steve Marriott and Peter Wolf. I was a guitarist. I’ve always loved playing the guitar. That’s where it always was for me.” Frampton is such a terrific player that the film director and former rock journalist Cameron Crowe asked him to teach actor Billy Crudup how to play guitar for Almost Famous, which is loosely based on the filmmaker’s initial foray into music writing. “Billy had never played guitar and I had to teach him everything in a short period of time,” Frampton recalls. “It was fun, but what cracked me up was back in the day I would talk to Cameron and he would tell me how much he hated rock movies since they weren’t authentic in his eyes. When he called me about making the movie, I said, ‘you’re making a rock movie?’ He said, ‘yes, but I want it to be authentic and I want you to come on board to help it become just that.’ So I reminded him about the little things, like that back in the early ’70s, which is what Cameron was going for with Almost Famous, the barriers between the band and the fans weren’t metal but wood. Little things like that mean a lot. I also taught Billy how to play and how to act on stage when his band opened for Black Sabbath. I know because Humble Pie opened for Black Sabbath. That was just one of the many experiences I had and the good thing for me is that the experiences keep adding up.” Frampton shows no signs of slowing down and he hopes to continue to morph. “I don’t want to stop,” Frampton says. “There’s no reason for me to do that. I’m still in great shape and I love playing just like I did in 1968 or 1976 or any other year that I’ve been fortunate enough to do this. I also want to keep pushing the boundaries. I want to challenge myself and make different styles of music. As long as the music is good, I’m fine with it. I still have so much to offer.” His latest offering is his “Guitar Circus” tour. “When you have someone out there that is as iconic as B.B. King and someone as talented as Sonny Landreth, that just keeps it very interesting for me and the people who come out. I love being out there with people who can really play guitar.

I
n June 1974, years before the first legal gaming hall was opened in Atlantic City (Resorts, 1978) the Jersey shore gave birth to what would become the first entertainment-oriented newspaper — the Whoot! The newspaper, which was founded by then-Stockton student (and current publisher of Atlantic City Weekly) Lew Steiner and his late parents Herb and Marcia, didn’t start out as a year-round weekly publication, but its target audience was those lovers of nightlife (hence the name, owls … nightlife … Whoot!) and there were a lot of them. There were also dozens upon dozens of nightspots in Atlantic City, as well as in neighboring towns such as Somers Point and Margate — most of them gone now — which gave the South Jersey shore region a different flavor and a different feel. While the Atlantic City area’s history is loaded with fascinating history and entertainment bits — from the resort down to Wildwood and Cape May — the Whoot! has become a part of that history, a timeline that continues to this day, with the publication of this week’s issue (which is about our 2,000th; the paper was a seasonal weekly when it first debuted) in print and online at acweekly.com. Over the past decade, our ever-evolving Web site has allowed us to add more and unique content for our readers (and the ability to reach more of them), while becoming a daily source of information related to “what’s happening at the Jersey shore.” Today, there’s no “Whoot! Route” section, but there is “South Jersey Nightlife,” which lists all of the nightlife options in the Atlantic City area in print and online. Today, we have a blog (“Atlantic City Central”), timely videos, digital photo galleries and new sections in the paper to keep up aff with the chameleon-like ways the region has changed — while not forgetting that the simple things, such as eekly St W y it C tic the beach, Boardwalk and Atlantic Ocean, are still three of the biggest reasons visitors come to the resort. By Atlan Forty years of producing a newspaper (and now a Web site) with comprehensive entertainment listings, celebrity interviews, compelling local history articles and an ever-changing dining guide — as well as photos, movie reviews, the latest concert updates, etc. — is something to be proud of, especially in this age of the disappearing print product. But ever since Philadelphia-based Review Publishing purchased the Whoot! and changed its name to Atlantic City Weekly back in 2000, there has been little to make an argument that the good old AC Weekly (which some still call the Whoot!) was outdated. Sure, our readers now include hundreds of thousands of visitors to our Web site, Facebook page and other social media and digital outlets, but the need for a go-to resource for entertainment in an entertainment town — which you can hold in your hands and flip through at your leisure — will always be needed in a tourism-driven destination like ours. In celebration of our 40th anniversary, over the next several months you will be reading about and hearing about special plans for the occasion. In this week’s cover story, we offer 40 things we love about the Atlantic City region. Some of them date back to the Whoot! days; some of them precede the first publication of the paper on June 19, 1974; and others are new and exciting changes in entertainment offerings over the past couple decades or so. There are certainly way more than 40 things to love about our region — for residents and visitors alike — past and present. If you would like to add something to this list, send an email to feedback@acweekly.com and your comments may be published in an upcoming issue and you will be entered in a contest for a secret special prize to be disclosed at a later date. — Jeff Schwachter

• Landmark Eateries — The Knife & Fork Inn, Dock’s Oyster House, Angelo’s Fairmount Tavern, White House Subs, Tony’s Baltimore Grill, Formica Brothers Bakery and others are still in town, decades later. • Celebrity Spotting — Thanks to popu-
lar venues like the town’s three beach bars (Bally’s, Trump Plaza, Landshark at Resorts), the Pool at Harrah’s Resort, Dusk at Caesars, and other popular nightclubs in the region, A.C. is a magnet for celebrities hosting events or just hanging out.
• The Boardwalk — The backbone of the
resort town and one USA Today has named among the nation’s “Best Boardwalks.” And yes, it’s still standing after Superstorm Sandy.
• Musical/Entertainment Legacy —
Some of the top performers in the nation and world
facebook.com/ACWeekly @acweekly
performed in several bygone, pre-casino Boardwalk venues as well as places like the 500 Club, Club Harlem, Grace’s Little Belmont and others.
• Boardwalk Hall — Built in 1929 as Convention Hall and longtime home to the Miss America Pageant (which returns to A.C. next month), the Hall is home to numerous concerts and special events each year and also contains the world’s largest musical instrument, a pipe organ of over 33,000 pipes. • Gardner’s Basin — The historic maritime park on north New Hampshire Avenue is home to restaurants, the interactive Atlantic City Aquarium, crafters, antiques, artists and occasional special events at an outdoor amphitheater. • Garden Pier — First opened in July 1913, the Garden Pier stood out as A.C.’s most stately pier
and contained the city’s largest ballroom at the time. The Miss America Pageant began on Garden Pier in 1921. The pier is undergoing renovations for its 100th anniversary.
• Steel Pier — Atlantic City’s best-known pier dating back to 1898, the Steel Pier was home to the famed Diving Horse Act and all sorts of varied entertainment. It was once dubbed the “Showplace of the Nation.” Under new ownership, it is in the midst of a multi-phase renovation project. • Atlantic City Race Course — The ACRC opened in July 1946, as the Atlantic City Race Track and, while it currently sees limited live horse racing, was once considered among the best thoroughbred horse racing tracks in the nation. In August 1969 an estimated 100,000 people attended the Atlantic City Pop Festival there. Plans are underway to renovate it. see more online @
• Lucy the Elephant — Created in 1881 to help sell real estate and attract tourism, Lucy remains one of America’s best-known tourist attractions. The six-story Margate pachyderm is a National Historic Landmark. • Restaurants —

• Absecon Lighthouse — New Jersey’s tallest and the nation’s third tallest lighthouse, built 155 years ago and containing the original first-order Fresnel Lens, first lit in 1857. • The Ritz Carlton — Built in 1921 and converted to condominiums in 1982, the Ritz-Carlton was renowned for its luxurious appointments and numerous famous guests.

• Shows/Concerts —
Top-name headliners, from the Rolling Stones to Beyoncé, are perpetually making tour stops in A.C. The Borgata, House of Blues at Showboat and Revel have upped the ante in terms of star power over the past decade.
• Boxing — Atlantic City has a legacy of staging great boxing events, most of them at Boardwalk Hall, including Mike Tyson vs. Michael Spinx, Evander Holyfield vs. George Foreman, and fights featuring Sugar Ray Leonard, Roberto Duran, Lennox Lewis, Bernard Hopkins and Arturo Gatti. • ARTlantic — A series of unique public art-
work designed to transform empty lots into vibrant art playgrounds throughout A.C. that also offer occasional, complimentary interactive programs. Have you checked out the new A.C. Waterfront Sculpture Walk in the city’s Marina district yet?

Built in 1905 and included among the National Register of Historic Places in 2001, St. Nick’s is among the most majestic structures in the city.

The intimate theater is now run by Richard Stockton College for a variety of special events. • Atlantic City Free Public Library & Events — With roots back to 1901, the ACFPL
provides numerous resources and programming to meet the diverse educational, recreational and informational needs of the A.C. community, including overseeing a research databank called the Atlantic City Heritage Collections. It also presents free live music series.
• The Cove and 4WD beaches at Brigantine — Just north of A.C., Brigantine is one of the few South Jersey resort towns that allows four-wheel drive access, including The Cove and southend jetty areas that are social hot spots in the summertime.
• Atlantic City Ballet —
Founded in 1982, the A.C. Ballet presents high-quality classical and contemporary dance productions to audiences of all ages and cultures. This year it is relocating its headquarters from Galloway Township to Atlantic City.
• Rolling Chairs/Jitneys — Save your energy and gasoline by employing two of the more unique modes of transportation anywhere, rolling chairs on the Boardwalk and jitney buses that operate 24/7 year-round.

• Miss America — Making its triumphant return to A.C. on Sunday, Sept. 15, the national pageant began in A.C. in 1921 and ran through 2006 before leaving for Las Vegas. It awards scholarships to young women from the 50 states plus Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The winner holds the “Miss America” title for one year. • Miss’d America — The Miss’d America Pageant is a hilarious spoof of the Miss America Pageant where drag queens strut down the runway and are judged in categories of swimsuit, talent, evening gown and interview. It returns to Showboat’s Club Harlem Ballroom on Sept. 21. • Monopoly — All the squares on the famed board game are locations in and around A.C., which became the inspiration for game inventor Charles Darrow because of his fondness for childhood vacations in the resort town. He often played a game called “The Landlords Game” with friends, and came up with the idea to apply Atlantic City to the existing game. A novel way to DO AC indeed. • Atlantic City Boardwalk Rodeo — Boardwalk Hall hosts this annual national rodeo event featuring bucking broncos, bull riding and more. It returns for the third time in October.
• Day trips within an hour’s drive of AC — Historic Smithville, several outstanding local wineries, historic Cape May, family friendly Ocean City, the Doo Wop Capital of the nation The Wildwoods and plenty more is within a short drive of A.C.
• Sporting Events – Atlantic City and the region hosts the annual Atlantic City Marathon, the annual ShopRite LPGA Classic at Stockton Seaview Resort, and top boxing (elsewhere on page) and MMA events. • Bader Field – Bader Field opened in 1910 as the first U.S. municipal airport with facilities for both seaplanes and land-based airplanes, and is the first facility anywhere in the world to coin the term “airport.” It closed to air traffic in 2006 but continues to be used for special events and music festivals. ■ see more online @

O
nce again, greetings and salutations. As the summer winds down, it’s just amazing how it gets better and better at Memories. If you were listening last weekend on Kool 98.3, we had people from all over, including Florida, L.A., Canada, and England. I guess that’s the power of the Internet. Of course, nothing but stars. The O’Leary crew from Longport, the Ranieris, the Coleman girls from Hallahan, Jeff Orleans and his lovely lady, Dr. De Pace’s crew, Victor the Barber’s nephew Luca, and a special appearance by the O’Neills from Lago Mar in Harbor Beach. Lo and behold, the return of one of the Amigos, Anthony, with his dad, Ray. Of course the regular crew was there, including the Mighty Quinn, Freddie DeFelice, the Admiral and Linda. Sal from South Philly celebrated turning 23 with his family. And yes, the return of Chris Sounds, and we can’t forget the lovely ladies from Dr. Matarazzo’s office in Philly, including Nicole, who is expecting a new baby, and guess what the name will be? Addison. And now that August is in full swing, so are Sundays at Memories. After “The Geator, Frank, and Friends” show on WOND Radio 1400AM, we’ve got the Geator Garden open all afternoon from 2pm, and then, starting this Sunday (Aug. 11), the Sensational Soul Cruisers will take the stage at 7:30 for the rest of the month of August. And then, on two Thursdays, Aug. 15 and 29, you’ve got to check out the group Not Collidge Material, who are getting some great buzz. Lots of opportunities to sample the excitement and the magic of Memories for the rest of the summer. Now let’s get to your questions. I have about 10 friends celebrating a 35th birthday and are looking to party it up. Is there a dress code at Memories and what is cover charge if any? — Marc W., Philadelphia No cover Fridays, no cover Saturdays before 10pm. Dress is casual, comfortable — no flip flops or tank tops, but shorts are OK. Transplanted South Philadelphian here in Austin, Texas. Enjoyed many nights at Memories, miss those summer days. You have probably heard already that Charles Pope of The Mighty Tams recently passed. A great singing group and an equally great voice, played frequently at your club. Take care, stay in good health. — Michael B. Loved those guys — very sad that both Pope brothers, who created the Tams and
Miller and Sinatra
After Frank passed, Miller continued working for Frank Jr. were the real stars of the Shag music experience, are now gone. Magnificent show on WOND today, listening now, don’t want it to end. Please tell me about Bill Miller, who you said conducted the song Sinatra sang with these lyrics: “The sound of rain in my heart from the tears that I hide.” Also what was that song? — Jace, Cape May That was “Rain in My Heart,” another Teddy Randazzo masterpiece. Pianist Bill Miller, who passed away in 1996 at age 91, was Frank’s accompanist for the majority of Frank’s career and is probably best known for his iconic piano on “One for My Baby (and One More for the Road).” After Frank passed, Miller continued working for Frank Jr., who called him “the greatest accompanist any popular singer ever had.” I’ve been enjoying what you do on your WOND show Sundays from [noon] to 2pm. Constantly surprised by selections you play that I have never heard before. Does someone help you program that? — Larry Arnold, Absecon No, in all my years doing radio, not only on the WOND show, but any time I get behind my microphone, I select my music as I go along, and I go from song to song depending upon the story line and how each song relates to the one I just played. In summing it up, it’s music from my heart, I don’t do it from a chart. n

Stars With ‘Guns’ Washington, Wahlberg elevate a trite plot in ‘2 Guns’ By Lori Hoffman • feedback@acweekly.com
I
f given the choice between a clever heist movie plot with an unknown cast and a standard connect-the-dots heist plot with major star power, frankly I’d take the former. However, with the serious charisma of Denzel Washington and Mark Wahlberg fueling the action, settling for the latter with 2 Guns wasn’t such a bad time even if we’ve seen the crooked government agent/drug cartel kingpin movie so many times before, most recently with Savages. In this variation on the plot, directed by Baltasar Kormákur (Contraband) and based on a series of graphic novels, Washington is undercover DEA agent Bobby Trench and Wahlberg is Naval intelligence officer Michael “Stig” Stigman. They are working a bank heist together each unaware that their partner is in law enforcement. The reason for the heist is to cripple the drug operation of Papi Greco (Edward James Olmos) by stealing his money. After revealing their true identities in a funny showdown, they realize that their undercover sting was a set-up. It turns out they didn’t steal from Papi, but from a CIA slush fund controlled by the thoroughly corrupt Earl (Bill Paxton, oozing malice in a wonderfully nasty performance). The duo goes from being undercover to being wanted fugitives, with several predictable double crosses along the way and a couple that aren’t as easy to spot. As far as cop bromances go, 2 Guns is pretty sweet since the Washington-Wahlberg combo is so far above the material they manage to elevate it to a more than acceptable level of fun. The solid supporting cast includes Paula Patton as a DEA agent, James Marsden as Wahlberg’s boss and a cameo appearance by Fred Ward as an admiral. Director Kormaker proved in his previous film with Wahlberg, Contraband, that he
knows how to make an action movie hum and with such a pair or pros on point, 2 Guns is better than it should be.
Summer Wrap-up With the last major summer blockbuster hopeful due this week, the sci-fi drama Elysium, the summer season is wrapping up and it has not exactly been a smash hit at the box office or in artistic quality. While I liked After Earth more than most, it tanked, followed by such underachievers as White House Down, The Lone Ranger and Pacific Rim. Iron Man 3 was a success, Fast and Furious 6 was a blast and The Heat brought all the laughs we hoped for, thanks to the Melissa McCarthy-Sandra Bullock combo. Man of Steel was better than the previous Superman reboot, but the action was generic and Star Trek Into Darkness wasn’t as exciting as the previous Trek film by J.J. Abrams. Animation domination continued with plenty of happy families enjoying Monsters University and Despicable Me 2. The Purge and The Conjuring have proven that if a horror movie has good word of mouth it can battle with the blockbusters. And, while summer moviegoing is defined by the blockbusters, a couple of art house films managed to elevate the artistic side of the ledger, in particular the thoughtful Middle Eastern drama The Attack and the acclaimed Sundance hit Fruitvale Station. ■

The next Miss Ocean City will be crowned on Sat., Aug. 10. Miss Ocean City will also take home a trophy and the traditional Ocean City bracelet. The four runner-ups will also receive prizes, consisting of scholarship money and a trophy. But according to McCall, winning is not important. “We encourage the girls to have good experience,” he says, “and this year’s motto for the pageant is ‘Have Fun.’” This year’s theme is “Celebrating Rock and Roll,” which will be included throughout the pageant, starting with the opening song. “It will be a fun night,” says McCall. “If [you] like the rock and roll era, we have some special treats during the course of the night.” The pageant has been going on for nearly 60 years and has been managed by the Exchange Club of Ocean City for more than 30 years.
In addition to the pageant, the Exchange Club sponsors a Boardwalk parade, which took place Wednesday, Aug. 7 — prior to the pageant (starting at noon). During the parade, the 2013 Miss Ocean City contestants cruised down the Boardwalk in convertibles with the contestants’ names announced over the city’s PA system. Viewers from the sidelines shouted out their favorite chants, such as “Show us your shoes,” and applauded their favorite contestants. The Miss Ocean City Pageant, held inside Ocean City’s Music Pier, starts at 7pm and will run approximately three to four hours. Tickets are $15 and can be purchased through any member of the Exchange Club of Ocean City, the Ocean City Exchangettes or at the Music Pier box office. ■

ATLANTIC CITY WEEKLY • AUGUST 8 - 14, 2013
n Aug. 10, the Miss Ocean City Pageant returns to the family resort. Last year’s winner Devon Vanderslice will be there to pass on her title as Miss Ocean City after 16 young women, ages 18 to 22, compete for the title. This year’s contestants include Madeline Brady, Avonlea Canizzaro, Kendall Couglin, Carley del Sordo, Samantha Dowling, Whitney Hanne, Savanna Kennelly, Kyle Lefkowitz, Amanda Leonetti, Samantha Monzo, Morgan Noble, Hadly Patterson, Molly Reighn, Phoebe Schumacher, Elizabeth Tully and Jordan Zobray. All competitors either attend Ocean City High School or have parents that own a home in Ocean City (year-round or vacation home). These are the requirements to compete in the pageant, according to program director Frank McCall. The girls will compete in four categories: Evening Gown, Swimsuit, Talent, and Judges Interview. There are five judges and one auditor, all of whose names remain anonymous. At the end of the competition, Vanderslice will pass on her crown and title to the new Miss Ocean City. “To say I am sad would be an understatement,” she says. “Winning Miss Ocean City definitely was a dream come true. The whole reason I got started in pageants is because I wanted to be Miss Ocean City like my mom was. I grew up trying her crown on my head and just always admiring it, so to actually have won my own Miss Ocean City crown was such an accomplishment for me.” Vanderslice says that although she will be sad to give up her title, she is excited to pass her crown to another young woman who will have the opportunity to fulfill her own dream. Contestants will be scored on their total points, and the winner will receive a crown and souvenir crown box, along with a $3,000 scholarship and a $1,000 wardrobe allowance.
