Chocolate Party
Who doesn’t like a sweet, rich piece of chocolate? That’s the idea behind the 21st annual MSU Museum Chocolate Party Benefit, which takes place Sunday, Feb. 21 at the Kellogg Hotel & Conference Center in East Lansing. Attendees will sample delectable chocolate tortes, cheesecakes, truffles, fountains and other elegant desserts. C’mon — what’s not to like? The MSU Museum Chocolate Party Benefit is one of only a few professional culinary events in the country open to the public, with local chefs and culinary students competing to create edible creations featuring, yes, chocolate. Past chocolate creations include carousels, film reels, pyramids and gardens. Meanwhile, mid-Michigan restaurants, caterers, bakeshops and candy makers will also share their scrumptious chocolate treats. This year’s theme is straight from the movie, “Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian.” The Chocolate Party benefits the care and preservation of the cultural and natural science collections of the MSU Museum. • The 21st annual MSU Museum Chocolate Party Benefit • 1:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 21 • $30 for the general public and $25 for MSU Museum members in advance and $35 at the door. A special “Premier Chocolatier” ticket for $75 offers an advance preview of Chocolate Party creations and a year-long MSU Museum membership. • Kellogg Hotel & Conference Center, 55 South Harrison Avenue, East Lansing 48824, 432-4000 Anne Erickson

Black Dynamite SONY
(84 MINUTES. RATED R)
When his brother is murdered, former C.I.A. agent and all-around badass Black Dynamite seeks vengeance. Along the way, he leaves a trail of out-cold suckas and smilin’ ladies, all leading to a righteous showdown with The Man. If it had come out a few years ago, the gobsmackingly awesome “Black Dynamite” could have been the middle film in the Tarantino/ Rodriguez “Grindhouse” double-feature, and it would have put both of them to shame. Every frame of “Dynamite” oozes with reverence for the grimy, bonkers days of 42nd St. cinema. But this is no wacky parody; it’s spot-on satire that cracks you in the face with the nunchuck of humor. The best compliment you can give to an homage film is that you could mistake it for the real deal, and while “Dynamite” has a vaguely contemporary odor, more often you will find yourself checking the calendar to make sure you didn’t time warp back to a groovier era. See this film.

Freshness reigns at cozy bistro
Esther Gim | NOISE
Soup to Nutz Bistro’s yellow exterior and sign hanging off a pole always caught my eye whenever I went down Washington Square or Kalamazoo Street but I never actually visited — until now. The actual entrance to the restaurant is a little deceiving. We tried entering through the door next to the OPEN sign, but that’ll only get you to a screen door to the kitchen. The actual door is next door.
THE SCENE
The inside is painted a warm orange hue — instantly making it feel cozy. The restaurant itself is pretty small. We counted nine tables for about 30 people. When we went around 12:30 p.m. on a Tuesday, the place was a half full and we took a table (the only round one in the restaurant) by the window, which understandably, got cold after awhile. There’s an outdoor patio in the back, which I’m sure helps during the warmer weather and the place gets packed, which I assume after
SOUP TO NUTZ BISTRO
123 E. Kalamazoo St., Lansing 485-0955. www.souptonutzbistro.com • 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Monday-Friday • 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Sunday
our trip that it does.
THE FOOD
For a place that’s on the smaller side, the menu has great variety from sandwich items to salad and to other entrees. A lot of the options seemed like it had the restaurant’s touch, such as the grilled Korean reuben complete with kimchee (spicy cabbage; $6.50) or the Tennessee turkey, served on a Kaiser roll ($6.95). The sandwiches come with carrot cranberry slaw or potato salad and the entrees come with a side salad or a small Caesar. I got the Chicken Salad Cynthia after an enthusiastic recommendation from the waiter: Roast chicken with green grapes and mayo served on wheat bread with
swiss cheese ($6.25). My sandwich tasted like it was made on the spot — very fresh. It was almost overflowing with the chicken mixture. Melissa ordered the Bistro Wrap: chicken, onions and mushrooms with cheddar cheese and zucchini ketchup ($6.50) that came with a roasted peppercorn dipping sauce. For an appetizer, we ordered the artichoke dip ($5.95). As someone who has tried many variations of it, this was one of the best. You could see the steam rising and the sizzling sound of it. The waiter noticed we ran out of crackers and still had a lot of dip left, so he brought us more.
THE DRINKS
We both stuck with water, but they offer Pepsi or Coke in a can, housemade lemonade, among other drinks.
THE DAMAGE
$19.82 (including tax but not tip)
NEXT TIME
The restaurant does brunch on Sunday mornings, which I’m told gets pretty cramped. The waiter said he’ll come on his Sundays off just to have the brunch a la carte, with many items with poached eggs.
BOTTOM LINE
With many unique items on the menu, this is a place where you’ll want to come back to try something new again and again.

Clothing for your laptop
Have a T-shirt you no longer wear? Hello Rewind transforms T-shirts into snazzy laptop sleeves.

App tracks H1N1 reports
If you’re worried whether someone nearby has the H1N1 virus, there’s an app for that. With a tap of your iPhone, the free HealthMap Outbreaks Near Me application shows nearby cases of swine flu via a red pin. There’s also the option of setting up push notifications to receive alerts, and a way to submit an outbreak report, but keep in mind that there’s a chance a user-submitted report may not be fully accurate.

The last time the stand up comedian D.L. Hughley performed in Lansing, the weather threw him for a loop. His show was interrupted by a tornado warning — something the Los Angeles native had never encountered before. “I said ‘why is this bell going off?’,” Hughley said. “It was an interesting experience.” Hughley will return to Lansing this weekend to perform four shows at Connxtion Comedy Club. Hughley’s career in stand-up lead him to a career in comedy that included starring in Spike Lee’s “Original Kings of Comedy”, his self-titled ABC/UPN sitcom “The Hughleys”, Aaron Sorkin’s short-lived “Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip” and more recently a brief stint hosting a late night show on CNN. He talked with NOISE on the phone. NOISE: What projects are you working on right now? Hughley: We’ve got the radio show and we’re trying to develop a late night show based on it. Those and the tour are keeping me really busy. We’re trying to do the whole Howard Stern thing where we simulcast the radio show. We’ll have guests, we’ll have music. NOISE: Your KISS-FM radio show in New York is broadcast at the same time (6-10 a.m.) as former ‘Kings of Comedy’ co-star Steve Harvey’s. Are you guys fighting for the same crowd? Hughley: He’s doing what he does and I’m doing what I do and New York’s a big city. I think there’s enough room for all of us. NOISE: You’re known for topical comedy. What can people expect to hear from you at your shows this weekend? What’s got you riled up right now? Hughley: It’s the economy, Tiger Woods, terrorism, relationships, what’s going right, what’s going wrong. NOISE: Were you surprised to see that the Underwear Bomber targeted Detroit? Hughley: If you come to Detroit to try to do anything you better be sure you can take an ass whoopping. I don’t think he planned that. I don’t think he got the memo. That was an amazing thing to see. NOISE: You were a correspondent for Jay Leno at 10 p.m. Will you be work-
ing with him again on his new Tonight Show? Hughley: Of course. I worked with him before this and I’ll work with him after this. I think the right guy won. I think it was nice to see a guy who does comedy every day, for a living, win. NOISE: Tracy Morgan said on Dave Letterman’s show this week that black people don’t watch the Winter Olympics. Have you watched any of the games? Hughley: No. Black people are good at winning medals in stuff you can learn to do free at the park. There was a brother (on a Winter Olympic speed skating team) from Chicago — I guess one of the things you have to learn how to do fast in Chicago is get away from people on ice.

Wilco bass player and founding member John Stirratt has an affinity for good melodies, so it makes sense Paul McCartney is one of his favorite musical icons. “I’m always just absolutely in awe of his playing,” Stirratt said, chatting from his hometown of Chicago, Ill. “You can always find new things in the Beatles catalog that are just beautifully expressive and rocking. He was able to do some wonderful harmonic touches with that band.” Stirratt’s other role models? “I also like these soul-bass guys from the ‘60s,” he said. “Tommy Cogbill, who played in Memphis, was a fantastic player and super funky. In that same era, Joe Osborne was a southern guy who went to Los Angeles and played on a million tunes. He was a big session guy. And the Motown scene was great, especially James Jamerson.” Judging by that list, it’s easy to see why Wilco brings so many diverse musical influences into their sound. The Grammy Award-winning band plays a headlining gig at the Wharton Center Cobb Hall on Sunday, Feb. 21. Wilco’s music is characterized by subtle, tuneful embellishments, and Stirratt says the biggest challenge of playing is knowing when to hold back on bass. “With where Wilco is right now, there’s so much melodic information going on and, and there’s so much atmosphere with Nels (Cline, guitarist) and Patrick (Sansone, guitarist/multi-instrumentalist) doing really fantastic melodic stuff on top, so there are so many options,” he said. “I think that’s the main challenge: Trying to find spaces in the music. Luckily, we don’t have to talk about it very much. It just kind of happens.” Read a complete interview with Stirratt online at LansingNoise.com. • Who: Wilco, Califone • When: 7 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 21 • Where: Wharton Center Cobb Auditorium on the campus of MSU • Tickets: $32.50 general public and $27.50 for MSU students with a valid ID plus charges.

Ryan Miller is at his second Winter Olympics Games. Last time, he was just a fan. This time, he’s an Olympian. And he’s in world spotlight as the starting goaltender for the U.S. Men’s Olympic hockey team. “It’s a great thrill to be part of something like this. I’m happy my career has progressed to the point where I’m in this position,’’ said Miller, 29, who grew up East Lansing and starred for three seasons at Michigan State University. “There are challenges and expectations but I think it’s going to be fun.’’ Miller arrived in Vancouver on Sunday, armed with his cameras and eager to soak in the Olympic atmosphere. His primary focus, however, will be to help Team USA contend for a medal. “He’s certainly the key player for the U.S.,’’ said former MSU coach Ron Mason. “If he plays great, the team could really surprise, but he has to have others playing well, too.’’ For Miller, now in his fifth season with the NHL’s Buffalo Sabres, representing his country is not so much a dream-come-true story as it is the end result of working to be the best at every level. As a sophomore and junior at MSU (2000-02), he was considered the best goaltender in college hockey. Today, Miller often is referred to as the best goalie in the NHL and in the world. ‘It’s surreal,’’ Miller said. “I’ve worked hard to put myself in this position, but not so much for the recognition, but being part of a team that wins. There’s nothing better than accomplishing something as a group. It’s one game, but ultimately you want to keep it going and win a championship.’’ When Miller was 7, he attended the 1988

When’s Ryan’s back in East Lansing in the summer, here are some of the places he likes to hang out: • Michigan Athletic Club: He’s working on core muscles and his hips and back to keep him strong and flexible and improve agility. “I’m never going to be a body builder so I really don’t concern myself with that stuff, just range of motion,’’ he said. • On the golf courses: He and his friends, including former teammates from MSU and his youth hockey days, play at Forest Akers Golf Course and Walnut Hills Country Club, among other courses. • At his condominium or his parents’ house in East Lansing: Ryan likes to relax, play the guitar, watch movies and visit with family and friends. • Traveling: Two years ago, Ryan went to Rome, Prague and London; last year he visited Barcelona, Spain. This year, Europe is out and he says he’ll be spending time in California and the West Coast.

Winter Games in Calgary to watch his cousin, Kevin Miller, on Team USA . But his desire to be an Olympian didn’t start until his late teens. “He had two early goals — to play for Michigan State and make the NHL,’’ Dean Miller said. Because that’s what Millers do. Ten members of the Miller family have played at MSU and five made it to the NHL. “Going to Calgary brought the Olympics into my radar, but I wasn’t even settled in as a goalie,’’ Miller said. “As I got older and starting following the game, it seemed like going to MSU would be the logical path to the Olympics.’’ Before 1998, U.S. Olympic hockey teams were made up of college players and lower-level pros. Things changed when the NHL stars were allowed to compete. “Just before I started at Michigan State, they started using pros and I thought I’d have to be pro to represent my country,’’ Miller said. “It’s taken just a little longer than I thought.’’ Making the Olympic team has limited Miller’s time for several of his interests outside of hockey. He’s still is involved in charity work, including his Steadfast Foundation, which he founded in 2006 and is dedicated to assisting young cancer patients and their families. He’s had to cut back on playing the guitar, photography and his social activities with friends. “We’re playing (NHL) games almost every other night, so when I do get time off, I just want to sit home and rest,’’ he said. “It’s been a grueling year. “Hockey has been my focus in terms of getting rest, good nutrition and finding ways to keep my body at the level it needs to be.’’ Says his mom, Teresa, “It’s always been important for Ryan to have interests outside of hockey, and he does. He’s involved in a lot of things and he’s very good about being staying connected with his family. “He’s still very driven but he has a certain confidence in himself that come with age. He’s the same young man he always was, with solid values and a good work ethic.’’ A work ethic and natural skills that have led him to a spot on the world stage in Vancouver. “We have the talent to win,’’ he said. “It’s about coming together as a team.’’

fice manager Susan Jenks is a “tea person” and prefers brewing Paramount’s leaves to its beans. “For the first 25 years I worked here I never drank coffee,” Jenks said. It was Jenks’ teenage son who finally convinced her to get a coffee maker. Now she dabbles in various decaffeinated blends — and her favorite to drink at home is the organic Mexican blend. “Now I’ve developed a taste for it,” Jenks said. She admits her coffee palette is no match for CEO Angelo Oricchio, who is also chief taste tester. “Different coffees taste different,” Oricchio said. “The goal when we are trying to bring new blends or new coffees is to try to compliment what’s already on the line.” Oricchio said he only drinks about two cups of coffee per day. “But we do a lot of tests. We brew coffees that are coming off the production line, and we take small 4 ounce cups, and we sip.” The Lansing company celebrates 75 years in the coffee blending, roasting,

Sondre Lerche
A few things you should know about Norwegian singersongwriter Sondre Lerche: 1) He’s a 2001 Norwegian Grammy Award-winner for Best New Artist. 2) Rolling Stone named his debut, “Faces Down,” one of the 50 best records of 2001. 3) He will be at Mac’s Bar in Lansing on Monday. The show is extra special, because Lerche performs solo. “You get to hear where the songs came from — just one guitar, one voice, like how I do my demos,” he said. “It’s a fun challenge to try and make it as dynamic and exciting as possible No matter what I do to these songs in the studio, they’ll get by on their own.” On Lerche’s new album, “Heartbeat Radio,” his wispy vocals and subtle rock guitar are the centerpiece of the CD’s minimal sound. The now Brooklyn-based twentysomething exudes a fresh-faced allure, and his songs come off earnest and poppy. Musically, influences are broad: everything from ’80s pop to Elvis Costello. “As a kid in the late ’80s, I remember moving into this building that had MTV, and I would just sit there and absorb it,” he said. “And a couple of things would pop up that I couldn’t stand. One was Fleetwood Mac’s songs from ‘Tango in the Night,’ and the other was the Cure’s ‘Friday I’m in Love.’ They both sounded odd to me, yet those songs had a weirdly slick sound. Now, for some reason, I have a real affinity for this kind of sound.” • Sondre Lerche, JBM • Doors 6:30 p.m. Monday, Feb. 22 • $15 in advance at fusionshows.com, Mac’s Bar and Flat, Black and Circular; $15 at the door for students with a valid student ID; $20 at the door • Mac’s Bar, 2700 East Michigan Avenue, Lansing, 484-6795 Anne Erickson

Every four years, this massive event seems to sneak up on me, despite constant promotion. The Olympics are here and will be for another ten days. The Games are something that exists for me on some alternate platform of reality: I know they’re constantly on NBC, but I only tune in when it happens to plop into my brain. However, nearly a week into the schedule I’ve conditioned myself to always hit Channel 10 on the remote when the television set goes on. There’s something innately fascinating about the Olympics, and it’s much more than just the legacy or tradition. This week, I’ll outline the least-mentioned amazing aspects of the 2010 Winter Olympics, as I see them.

FITNESS IN RHYTHM Amanda Renkas | NOISE
Known for a performance style that merges dance, gymnastics and sometimes a suspension of belief in gravity, Pilobolus has been mesmerizing audiences for almost 40 years. They come to the Wharton Center this week for a one-night performance so the artistic director and co-founder Robby Barnett talked with NOISE about fitness: We wanted to know how us mere mortals can get those svelte bodies. group.
NOISE: Tell me a little about launching such an innovative
Barnett: It was 1971. I was one of four guys in college who met in a dance class. We decided, improbably, that we would start our own dance group. It was sort of like starting a circus and then running away and joining it. It took us a couple of years, but the company progressed. We began by doing performances in the cafeterias of local elementary schools. NOISE: Pilobolus stole the show at the 2007 Oscars when the group formed the shapes of the best picture nominees. What was that experience like? Barnett: We were asked if we could make a car commercial using silhouettes. Then, the woman who was producing the Oscars saw it and asked if we could do some shadows for the show. We, of course, said yes: we say yes to almost everything and then figure a way to do it. It was an opportunity to get in the studio and play around. There are these iconic images from these various movies, and tried to see if we could make them work. We kept finding out that we could.

»Pilobolus brings
gravity defying dance routines to Wharton stage
NOISE: Is there any mix of strength training, gymnastics, cardio, yoga ... or is it dance all the time? Barnett: That’s all built in to having to perform Pilobolus dances. NOISE: As far as the way you approach life and dance, what are some ways us non-dancers can weave a little Pilobolus into our daily routines? Barnett: We believe that optimism and forward momentum are absolutely essential. We like to take a long view in our lives and in our work. We believe In the power of ignorance. When you don’t know something, you don’t know what you can’t do. Exceeding your capabilities is something we do on a daily basis. With each failure, you have increased your knowledge in a way, but you do that by pressing into the places you have the greatest ignorance. We live our lives intimately engaged with other people. Part of what people like about Pilobolus is we are a metaphor for an ideal society. If someone isn’t holding you up, you’ll fall over. When two people are moving together, they have a joint center of gravity. Then need each other to stand.

NOISE: Physically, what exercises or activities can we adapt from the Pilobolus dance group?

Barnett: I believe in outdoor exercise. It is one of the ironies of my life, because dance is almost entirely an indoor sport. It has to be stuff that’s fun. You can only force yourself to drink cod liver oil for so long. Exercise has got to be entertaining. Climb a mountain. Play speed golf: Carry three clubs and run like a bastard. Whatever it is, inline skating, pond hockey, play games. I recognize that many people’s lives don’t allow for running in the woods. I do see people with iPods and treadmills. It rends my heart a little because it looks like a gerbil on a wheel. But for maximum pleasure and value in a life, I wouldn’t start with that.

| lansingnoise.com
(ASTRALWERKS)
What in the world happened to Hot Chip? I’ve never been much of a follower, but at what point exactly did they become 8/10’s of the way to the new Pet Shop Boys? Their previous output struck me as occasionally cool but mostly bland dancepop without much emotion lurking in the background. So imagine my surprise to spin their latest concoction, “One Life Stand,” and end up with an LP full of surging synths, plinking piano and insistent melody, steeped in affirmations of love, longing and connections. Title-track-as-highlight is becoming a trend, and “One Life Stand” is no different. A head-bobbing dance groove leads into casual verses before the lush, romantic chorus sends it skyward. And the best part is I feel like I’m still underestimating the song, and album. That is has layers behind the beat, like the best synth pop. And I’m going to enjoy listening for them.

McCallum: I mean making choices that aren’t necessarily just about making your character look good. Maybe that means allowing another character to have a moment, knowing that’s the best thing to do for the scene. So many times you see actors who are worried more about themselves and their closeups instead of the show. NOISE: Tell me about your production company, Rebel Pictures. McCallum: It’s a company I started in ’99, when I was taking film classes at Lansing Community College. The ‘rebel’ part comes from my love for filmmakers of the ’50s and ’70s who went against the grain a lot. NOISE: Are you a rebel? McCallum: Definitely. We work on low budgets, and a lot of my film friends say I should go out to New York City, but the more I stay in the Lansing, the more I get a real sense this is home.

Beer
Explore some new barley-and-hops brews
WI T TE NOIRE DE PROEFBROUWERIJ, LOCHRISTI, BELGIUM W W W. S B S - I M P O R T S . C O M / D E P R O E F. P H P 7. 5 P E R C E N T A B V The term “imperial” has become one of the most abused words in the beer world. Primarily used in the past in connection with stouts, denoting a stronger version of the style, it has now in the United States been applied to nearly all beer styles — imperial IPA, imperial wheat ale, etc. The U.S. usage of the term makes it hard for the consumer to know what exactly they are buying from stores. It can simply mean a stronger beer for the style, but many times also means more hops than is normal. If you’re not a hop fan, you are in for an unpleasant surprise when you find the beer you bought has double or triple the amount of hops. This is not the case at all with Witte Noire, described on its label as an “imperial amber wheat ale.” It reminded me of a dark witbier — having the lightness and spice notes of a witbier, but with darker malts adding a roasted chocolate and dark fruit background. Normally I find these taste combinations in heavier beers such as porters and imperial stouts. Witte Noire, however, maintains these flavors with a light, creamy

body and a medium sweetness. This ale, available in a 750 ml. corked bottle, stands out even among the many excellent beers from Belgium. Another Belgian ale offered by De Proefbrouwerij did not fare as well. Van Twee is a dark ale with sour cherry juice, but neither the dark malts or the fruit came through very well. The main culprit was a special yeast called brettanomyces, which resulted in a main flavor profile of leather that overshadowed everything else in the beer. I’ve had other Belgian ales, such as Rodenbach and Vichtenaar, that consistently achieve the difficult task of blending sweet and sour, malty and fruity, and I wonder if Van Twee might just need more aging for that magical right blend to occur. De Proef beers are available from SBS Imports and is distributed in about 30 states; the list is available online at www.sbs-imports.com/ distribution.php.

MSU student’s design headed for red carpet Julie Hinds | for NOISE
When guests arrive on the Oscars’ red carpet March 7, a dress designed by Jillian Granz, 21, of Canton will have a starring role. The Michigan State University senior’s design will be worn at the Academy Awards by actress Suzy Amis Cameron — wife of “Avatar” director James Cameron. Suzy Amis Cameron chose Granz as the winner of the “Red Carpet, Green Dress” contest, which the actress created to promote sustainable design and green education and to raise money for a California elementary school she cofounded. “I’m very excited to see the dress on the red carpet,” said Granz, who entered
the contest along with other students in an MSU class in innovative approaches to clothing design. Assistant professor Theresa Winge, who teaches the class, said the gown is “going to be quite wonderful.” Granz is thrilled at having a dress at Hollywood’s most famous awards show. “I’ve always wanted to be a designer,” she said. She’s getting a degree from MSU in apparel and textile design. Although the details of the dress are being kept a surprise, Granz’ entry had an eco-friendly approach. She suggested green ideas like a no-waste pattern, a technique that tries to avoid leftover fabric scraps. The design will be made into a dress by costume de-
signer Deborah Scott, who won an Oscar for the costumes in “Titanic.” James Cameron also directed that film, and Suzy Amis Cameron had a role in it. Granz is set to travel to Los Angeles later this month, where she’ll meet the Camerons and attend special events. And she’s in talks now with a major network about an opportunity to watch the Oscars from that city. “It would be so exciting. I don’t think I’d know what to do with myself,” she says. James Cameron is nominated for best director for “Avatar.” The sci-fi blockbuster is tied for the most nominations — nine — with the Iraq War drama “The Hurt Locker.”

Can you, like me, barely contain the happy dance at the thought of the upcoming Tim Burton adaptation of ‘Alice in Wonderland’? Well there is an excellent new edition of the classic Lewis Carroll novel to whet your appetite and prep you for the adventure to come. I am shocked by how many people I encounter who have never read this absolutely delightful book. Allow me to assure you that the book has fantastic substance that can easily appeal to all ages. This particular edition is special for the accompanying artwork supplied by Camille Rose Garcia, one of my favorite artists in the Pop Surrealist art movement showcased in publications like Juxtapoz magazine. Garcia’s watercolor and acrylic illustrations leap off the page, capturing the underlying darkness of the story with a deft gothcomic touch. And, at under $20, this fullcolor hardcover is incredibly priced. Grab it and get ready!

THE TIN CAN 414 E Michigan Ave, Lansing www.tincanbar.com » Hours: Monday - Friday 3 p.m. to 2 a.m., Saturday 6 p.m. to 2 a.m. Closed Sundays » Bottom Line: With no cover, no smoking, 34 beers to choose from and “Good Drink & Cheap friends” as a tag line, I predict long lines on Thirsty Thursdays before and after the game and a packed bar most other nights.
Tin Can blows lid off first weekend First off, props to my boy Jason Lovett for inviting me to become a fan of The Tin Can on Facebook last week, otherwise I might have missed out on the opening weekend. When I told my editor Amanda Renkas I was going to spotlight the new bar, The Tin Can, she said, “I wonder who’d be interested in drinking beer out of a can.” Well Amanda, my buddy Ryan Smith looked at the drink menu and said, “Schlitz? “I think general No way! Colt 45?, $1.75? No friggin’ way!!!” Lion Stout? manager Dave That’s an Indian beer! And Sell has a winner $4?! Weber, you gotta give this place a bad review so on his hands ... we can have it all for ourbut ... The place selves!” From the crowd that is about the size was already there at 11 of a large refrig- p.m. Saturday, I think the word is already out. With erator box, so if “Really Cheap Beers” for you don’t like $1.75, “Pretty Cheap Beers” for $3 (Labatt, Chupacabra people in your Pale and Brown) and hula hoop, then “Cheap Beers” for $4 this place might (Guinness, Boddingtons, Red Stripe), $2.50 wells not be for you.” and $5 calls, plus a whole list of shots that ring in at $3 each and the most expensive item on the menu being the Tin Can Happy Meal for $6 (a can of PBR, a shot of Jack, and a chili dog), all in a smoke-free environment, I think general manager Dave Sell has a winner on his hands. “The owner, Doug John and I, went to a bunch of dive bars around Lansing so we could kinda get the feel of what they offered, and cheap was the biggest thing we found,” Sell said. “We sell beer in cans because it’s lighter and easier to ship for the distributors, then we can pass those savings along to the patrons.” The Tin Can is located in part

of the former Oldsmobile Heritage Museum that houses Harem Urban Lounge and The Loft, both owned by John and managed by Sell. The Tin Can offers a couple of TVs on each end of the bar, darts and chalkboard walls that the patrons can deface (with some pretty funny and sometimes racy verbiage). Music is provided via a jukebox that pumped out Eminem, Alicia Keys and Jay Z’s Empire State Of Mind, A-Ha, Eagles, Daft Punk, Patsy Cline, Bon Jovi and Brooks & Dunn over the course of the evening. As a grad student at Michigan State University, my friends and I have developed a game while hanging out with the college-aged kids. We call it “I’m not the oldest guy
in the bar.” Saturday night was no exception: With mainly a mix of what looked like Cooley Law students, a few MSU post grads and several people our age, we fit right in. I did see my Lou Ha’s buddy Josh Pams there, and I asked him what he thought of the place. “The crowd reminds me of The Riv, but it’s too small and congested.” The place IS about the size of a large refrigerator box, so if you don’t like people in your hula hoop, then this place might not be for you.

Inspired by Pearl Jam, Nirvana Frontman: Success ‘best DETAILS{ thing that’s happened’ to Cavo
EAR CANDY: CAVO
• Hometown: St. Louis, Missouri • Line-up: Casey Walker (vocals), Chris Hobbs (guitar), Chad La Roy
off in 2001. “It’s a contrast, because our job is done at night now, but with our old lives, our jobs were in the daytime,” Walker said. “Now we usually sleep all morning, go into the studio in the afternoon and work until 2 in the morning. It’s like our world has been turned upside-down.” Walker’s answer couldn’t be truer; especially considering how much time he spends playing gigs. Cavo has been on the road most of the past year. That includes Crüe Fest 2, blockbuster tours with Chris Daughtry and Shinedown and plenty of one-off shows. Cavo’s latest tour-mate is post-grunge act Puddle of Mudd, and both play the Machine Shop in Flint on Thursday, Feb. 18. Despite long days and
nights on the road, Walker says touring never gets old. “When a person says, ‘Your song got me through the hardest part of my life,’ that means so much to the whole band.” Walker says the band’s latest single, “Crash,” is a universal story about “wanting someone there for you, and finding that one person who is there no matter what.” “Yesterday my wife and son came up, and it was amazing spending time with them, but it reminds you of how much you miss home on tour,” he said. “You never really get used to it. It just gets less painful. But this is the life we signed up for, and it’s the best thing that’s happened to us. I’m grateful.”

Cavo lead singer Casey Walker always had a knack for music. But it wasn’t until he saw Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder onstage that he felt called to be a rock singer. “When I saw Eddie singing, I was floored,” he said, speaking from a tour stop in Oklahoma City. “My whole world changed. You can just tell that what he’s saying is important to him. He puts his heart and soul into every song.” Listening to Cavo, the Pearl Jam influence makes sense. On the St. Louis-based band’s major-label debut, the guys make it known they aren’t a flash-in-the-pan pop band. The album’s title, “Bright Nights, Dark Days,” is a reference to how the band’s life has changed since starting
