Review by Stan Robinson

Directed by Kenny Ortega. Rated PG for some suggestive choreography and scary images. Sony Pictures Releasing release. Runtime: 112 minutes.

Most expected, as this reviewer, a lot of commentary, musical clips, and the glitz & glamour that normally surrounds the ”King of Pop”. What we get is the creative process along with the hard work, long hours, and tenacity of the persons involved, in preparation for the most ambitious tour of each of their lives.

The documentary “No Impact Man” follows a Manhattan, New York family as they abandon their high consumption 5th Avenue lifestyle, and try to live a year while making no environmental impact. ***

We get a rare, behind-the-scenes look at Michael Jackson as he developed, created and rehearsed for his sold-out concerts that would have taken place beginning this summer in London. The months from April through June 2009 are highlighted from more than one hundred hours of behind-thescenes footage, as it captures Michael Jackson the singer, dancer, filmmaker, architect, and creative genius as he prepares for what was to be his final concert tour. Aspects of the creative relationship between Kenny Ortega, Michael Jackson’s creative partner and the director of the stage show, the audition process of the dancers chosen for the tour, and the shooting of the audio/visual segments to be used for the show, are among the many insights shared in “This Is It”.

Your thoughts as a moviegoer on movies you see are important to me; let me know One aspect for me, it was amazing what you think! how Michael Jackson at 50 years old, Movies@StanRobinson.org kept pace with dancers half his age during rehearsals. At 112 minutes, “This Is It” seems to go by in an

A CHEF DEBUT WITH A BANG Locavore Winemaker Dinner Set for November 12 at Caffe Boa Foodies and Wine-O’s alike won’t want to miss this one : Highlyacclaimed Chef Payton Curry of Caffe Boa is introducing his flair for fine wine and foods with a winemaker dinner set for November 12. Curry’s passion for using locallygrown and seasonal ingredients is well-known in the Valley and beloved by many at his former post with the now-defunct Digestif. Curry has harnessed his skill, passion and signature style for a one-of-a-kind food and wine showcase that will be his first winemaker dinner since joining the Caffe Boa team. The six-course “Locavore” menu scheduled for the evening uses only locally-sourced ingredients and incorporates his Black Mesa Ranch Berkshire grass-fed pig, along with other delectable items on the menu. Each course has been paired with a wine by Lioco Winery—the 2009 Winery of the Year by Wine & Spirits— and has been hand-picked to bring out and compliment the flavors of each and every bite. A longtime locale for organic and sustainable gourmet dining, Caffe Boa still sources more than 90% of its products from local farms, markets

and gourmet food proprietors. Owner Jay Wisniewski credits Boa’s commitment to local sourcing and sustainability to the enhanced quality and taste of the products derived from local sources, a philosophy shared by Curry. “I am very excited to show guests how locally-sourced foods can truly come together and make for a great meal,” Curry said, “Especially when paired with a fine wine,” Curry said. Guests can enjoy the Lioco Winemaker Dinner for $79 which includes six courses and each wine

pairing. Conversations by Curry and Lioco Winery Owner, Matt Licklider, will enhance the evening. Reservations begin at 6pm and are

highly recommended by calling (480) 968-9112. Caffe Boa is located at 398 S Mill Ave # 110 Tempe, AZ 85281

If you have an entertainment event or item to include in “The Night Owl” send to brent.diggins@azweeklymagazine.com “The Night Owl” will cover restaurants, clubs, bars, celebrities, music and other miscellaneous events.

BY BRENT DIGGINS AND EFIA MOORE There is so much going on around the Valley this time of year that it gets overwhelming. Isn’t it great that you have someone to whittle all these choices down to only the “must-dos” for you on a weekly basis? That’d be me and most writers don’t say this enough, but thanks for reading and keeping the Night Owl flying. To find out what happened, is happening and will happen around the Valley this week, read on. Luci’s Marketplace Grand Re-Opening: Unfortunately, I never had the opportunity to visit Luci’s Marketplace or Richardson’s restaurant before the fire that destroyed both of the prominent Phoenix destinations three moths ago. Reading all of the local tweets after the fire made me realized how significant both businesses were to the community and how I, and all of us, need to explore and appreciate what’s in our own back yard. That said here is your chance. Renewed and strengthened by fire, Luci’s Marketplace will be celebrating its grand re-opening with music, samplings, giveaways, and honoring the heroes of the Phoenix Fire department with a plaque this Sunday, November 8 from 12 – 4 p.m. Whether you’re a first-timer like me or a an old friend, Luci’s will be welcoming you in with an open coffee bar, pro cooking demonstrations in the Viking expo kitchen, and samplings throughout the market, including free milk and cookies for kids. Everyone who enters the raffle will have a chance to win raffles prizes, and shoppers can save 10% on all products, except alcohol, throughout the marketplace from 4- 8 p.m. See you there! www.LucisHealthyMarketplace.com Arizona State Fair: So maybe you accidentally missed Bob Dylan perform, and purposefully skipped, Raven-Symone’s, but are you really going to miss a chance to witness The Arizona Derby Dames, all girl roller-derby, mini-tournament? If you’ve never been to a roller-derby tournament you have not seen some of the best and most competitive athletes go head to head. This minitournament, free with paid admission to the Arizona State Fair on November 5, is only a taste of an all-out brawling roller-derby match, but it will ignite your roll-derby fire and will leave you wanting more. Come see the Bombshells, Coffin Draggers, Schoolyard Scrappers, and Runaway Brides battle it out to see who will take on the recent 2009 champions, the Brutal Beauties, in the Arizona Veterans Memorial Coliseum from 6:00 to 8:30 p.m. Oh yeah, and while you there don’t forget to enjoy the rest of the fair’s treats like rides, games, and fried and sweetened everything! www. azstatefair.com The Compund: A new music venue is heading into the shopping center at the 101 and Scottsdale called The Compound Grill, and this has caused great joy in the Night Owl household. The grand opening will be Saturday November 7th and one of my new faves, Jackie Greene, will be performing. The Compound was founded by the producers of the McDowell Mountain Music Festival, which gives it instant credibility in my book. They will host both

national acts and local acts regularly, and by the looks of the schedule, they are all super high quality. Plus the music is pretty eclectic featuring everything from folk and acoustic to jazz and blues. On Thursdays, they have a “Writers Night” which will be a songwriters showcase featuring a variety of local acts in a showcase format. Sounds like a great place to find some new local music to dig on. Not to get too carried away with the music, they also have a pretty interesting menu featuring “Southwest “fresh” selections, with the majority of our ingredients incorporating a local first, farm-to-table, organic philosophy.” Just check the menu, calendar and venue out at thecompoundgrill.com. Celeb Golfing #1: Valley homeboy Alice Cooper will be hosting his 13th Annual Alice Cooper Pro-Am Golf Tournament at the Los Caballeros Golf Course in Wickenburg on Saturday, November 7th. Like most Cooper events, proceeds will go to charity, this time Solid Rock, which helps out teens. If you want to sign up to play or need more information visit alicegolf.com. Oh, after the golf, Halo of Flies, an Alice Cooper tribute band comprised of Fender employees and Alice Cooper, will perform. Celeb Golfing #2: While Alice Cooper has the rock celeb golf thing going, baseball players Torii Hunter (Anaheim Angels) and the Diamondback’s own Justin Upton will be hosting the Torii Hunter Celebrity Golf Classic on November 10th and 11th. Ball players like Ozzie Smith, Darryl Strawberry, Derek Lee, Tony Clark, Eddie Murray, Dustin Pedroia, Chris Young, Don Baylor, Jenny Finch, Kenny Lofton, and Mark Grace will be attending. Of course, it is all for charity too as it benefits The Heart of a Champion, Telios Preparatory Academy in Phoenix and Sacaton Middle School on the Gila River Indian Reservation. For tickets and more info visit torrihunter.com. Learn How Men Think: Where are my ladies at? Do you wonder what goes on inside of men’s brains and do you want do find out how to communicate with men, what they want in a woman, what they think about women who sleep with them on a first date and much more? Learn from the experts as acclaimed life coaches Michael Lindstrom and Dan Lier host a provocative social symposium for women at Scottsdale’s Mondrian Hotel on November 12th. In addition to the event, attendees will enjoy $5 drink specials on Skyy vodka cocktails and martinis, $5 X Rated Fusion Liqueur cocktails and martinis, and $5 glasses of Martini & Rossi Rose Champagne. Want more? Swag bags, complimentary valet and food will compliment the evening. Best part? It’s free to attend. Now, here’s a “guy” tip. Guys are you looking for a woman? Wouldn’t it be smart to head to the Mondrian’s Red Bar after this event? I mean women fresh from this course will be eager to try all the new tricks and tips that they learned on men. If I was in the game, I’d do it.

Rinsing your nose with salt water can help keep you healthy and ward off allergy symptoms. Nasal irrigation is a cheap and easy way to find relief if you have spring allergies, nasal congestion, stuffy noses or post-nasal drip.

Smokers are four times as likely to report feeling unrested after a nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sleep than nonsmokers. Smokers often experience withdrawal symptoms at night, thus causing periods of restlessness and waking.

Prosecutors in New York City have filed charges against a man they claim scammed dozens of illegal immigrants by posing as an immigration lawyer. They say this guy lied to his clients, gave them bad advice and stole their money. I don’t know. Sounds like a real lawyer to me. The White House is calling for bailed-out banking executives to get a 90% pay cut. They want their pay cut by 90% so it’s more in line with the job they’re doing. Here’s my question: Why can’t we get this for Congress?

Actor and comedian John Cleese will perform his latest one-man show on Nov. 20–21, 2009, at Scottsdale Center for the Performing Arts.

Always walking a fine line between rock, blues and jazz, virtuoso guitarist Jeff Beck is captured on his first dvd ever in the intimate setting of Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club to perform predominantly his 70’s era material. Truly one of music’s most respected guitarists, Beck rolls through such trademarks as “Beck’s Bolero”, “Goodbye Pork Pie Hat”, “Cause We’ve Ended As Lovers” along with an instrumental version of The Beatles “A Day In The Life”. They are executed with such brilliance and feeling it’s no wonder why Beck is so well respected and consider by many to be a legend. His playing is enhanced (if that’s even possible) by the musicianship of Vinnie Colaiuta (drums), Jason Rebello (keyboards) and Tal Wilkenfield (bass), or perhaps the other way around. Joining Beck for guest spots are Joss Stone E R E C who N O R turns Z O in an incredible D CK version of “People Get Ready” and Eric Clapton on “Little Brown Bird” and “You Need Love”. With

21 tunes in all and interviews, this one is worth the admission price. If you’re not familiar enough with his playing other than the occasional guest spot, this is a perfect introduction to what music fans have known for years: his playing exudes class, feeling, melody, reckless abandon, masterful musicianship and sheer execution of the guitar that no one can match. Beautifully shot and with an excellent sound mix, would you expect anything less from Jeff Beck?

Monster Monster is the five-piece rock group’s sophomore album, the follow-up to 2007’s Southern Weather, which scored a #7 Modern Rock single in “Say This Sooner,” a slot on MTV’s prestigious Discover & Download program and a quarter-million in sales after debuting in the Top 40 on the Billboard Top 200 with 29k+.
