DETAILS{

• Band: Cage the Elephant • Hometown: Bowling Green, Ky. • Sound: Alternative rock • New album: “Thank You, Happy Birthday” • Release date: Jan. 11 (available at area record stores) • Label: Jive

Shultz: Honestly, we didn’t listen to a lot of stuff growing up. It was sheltered, but it wasn’t this totalitarian environment some people have painted it out to be. Our parents were trying their best to protect us from the world. But when my parents got divorced when I was in high school, I remember the ﬁrst record I got was “Jimi Hendrix — Live at Woodstock.” NOISE: What bands inspire Cage the Elephant’s sound? Shultz: I pull from all the bands I love, because I want to love the music I make. You don’t consciously set out to rip off a particular sound; it’s more that you interpret the sounds in your own way. As far as bands, The Ramones, Screaming Tea Party, Morning Teleportation, Let’s Wrestle, Black Flag — they’re all inﬂuences.

Cage the Elephant makes raw, free-wheeling, punkblues rock. Originally out of Bowling Green, Ky., the guys hit the Top 5 on the rock chart with 2009’s, “Ain’t No Rest for the Wicked,” a song toting a super-catchy chorus and smart lyrics about society and the world around. The band’s heavily anticipated sophomore album, “Thank You, Happy Birthday,” hit stores last Tuesday. The album’s ﬁrst single, “Shake Me Down,” is already Top 5 on the alternative rock chart. NOISE chatted with lead singer Matt Shultz — who along with Brad Shultz (guitar), Daniel Tichenor (bass), Lincoln Parish (guitar) and Jared Champion (drums) round out Cage the Elephant — about the release. NOISE: Your album, “Thank You, Happy Birthday,” hit stores this week. You worked with producer Jay Joyce on the album, who you worked with on your debut. What makes Jay the

right fit for Cage the Elephant? Shultz: I don’t know. I think it’s just the way he works. Within the first 15 minutes of meeting Jay, we knew he would be our producer for life. NOISE: The album’s first single, “Shake Me Down,” cracked the Top 10 in alternative and rock very quickly. Did you have a good feeling about that song when you recorded it? Shultz: I enjoyed the song but never thought it would be a radio song. That’s how it always is; at least that’s what I’m told. It was a different song to record, so we thought it wouldn’t make the record. It was one of the songs that was harder to piece together than others, so I wasn’t sure if we would be able to finish it, and we ended up using a piece from another song to complete it. NOISE: I think that’s much more natural than setting out to record a single. Shultz: Whenever we write ... we normally are just writing for the song, and whatever materializes out of it, we go with. NOISE: What were some of the first bands you remember listening to growing up?

Technology fueled by innovative minds Tell someone you want to be a video game tester when you grow up, and they may not think that sounds like growing up at all. That’s where East Lansing native John Garcia-Shelton started his career in gaming. Now he’s a game producer and developer. “I deﬁnitely get a kick out of what I do,” Garcia-Shelton said. He has worked on some big name games — like Call of Duty — but decided after having children that he wanted to try making a game they could play. He founded Lil’ Gamer and built a game application based on the children’s series “Wheels on the Bus with Mango and Papaya” for iPhone and iPad. His own kids were his unofﬁcial testers. “I really got to see what worked and what didn’t work with them,” he said. “So many people make games for kids and make the content young but don’t necessarily make the game play as simple as they should.” Simplicity is key for apps geared toward adults too. Duane Fahey of Grand Ledge was drawn into app development by his passion for food and wine. What started with an idea for wine tasting app has grown into Gormaya — a long

line of apps for cooks for the iPhone and iPad. “A lot of people think the idea is the hard part, and it’s really not,” Fahey said. “The implementation is the hard part.” Fahey is the lead developer on all Gormaya’s products, and uses connections from developer groups like CocoaHeads in Ann Arbor and Mobile Mondays in Detroit to find local contractors to help on large projects. “Every app you do is an investment,” Fahey said. “You learn things as well as hopefully get good sales.” (Return on investment) is not part of the equation, it’s about ‘Is it a good idea?’ ” App development is a profitable but unpredictable business that relies on finding a niche and then keeping up with a rapidly changing structure of Apple, Android and other operating systems. Fahey is betting on Apple’s continued success. “I think we’ll see the iPad go places,” Fahey said. “I don’t think there will be a whole lot of surprises in the next year or so, but you never know with Apple.” The explosion of smart phone usage means companies are champing at the bit to get in the game. Hold your horses is the advice from Henry Balanon, founder of development firm Bickbot. “People for the most part think they need one just because they think it would be cutting edge and people will think they are cool, that it will help their brand,” Balanon said. “Most

Bryce Colquitt, 22, is an MSU senior who pitched his idea for an educational game at Startup Weekend: Lansing in November. Colquitt won a prize package that included $2,000, legal services and other assistance to start building the game. His startup, Jolly Digital, is the first tenant in The Hatch, the student business incubator inside the Tech Innovation Center in downtown East Lansing. Colquitt hopes to have a test version of the game ready for local teachers to try by May, and is currently vying for funding on the site www.kickstarter.com, which helps entrepreneurs find investors for their ideas.

businesses do not need an iPhone app.” Balanon, a Detroit resident and MSU graduate, said it takes 300 to 400 hours of work to go from initial concept to a ﬁnished application. After all that work, the app enters a realm where people expect everything to be either free or cheap. “It is frustrating when people (say) ‘I wouldn’t pay a dollar for this’ when you spent so much time doing it,” Balanon said. “But the market prices have driven it down.” The trade off for selling the apps for a buck or two is that the costs to build them are lower too. Garcia-Shelton said what appeals to him most about smartphone games is they eliminate barriers of entry. It doesn’t take a publishers’ backing and millions of dollars to get a passion project off the ground. “It’s very much garage game development,” Garcia-Shelton said. “You can get together (a few) people and make games that compete with and have production values that match something like Angry Birds. You can get your game out there. It’s really liberating after working through publishers.”

LCCTV’S ‘DOUBLE JUMP’

Now on Thursdays JAN. 13 – JAN. 19

Dan Hartley has a pretty sweet gig at Lansing Community College’s television station. He hosts “Double Jump,” a magazine-style show about video games. “I am really interested as games as an art form because video games are to me, the most exciting form of art right now,” Hartley said. The ﬁfth episode of Hartley’s “Double Jump” aired this week. As the host of the only locally produced show about gaming, the 25-year-old East Lansing resident got a chance to interview developers and academics at the Meaningful Play conference at Michigan State University. Hartley, a recent MSU graduate, also blogs about gaming on the Double Jump site http://lcc.edu/tv/shows/doublejump. Hosting the show is a part-time job. He also works at Cravings Popcorn in Old Town. NOISE caught up with Hartley to talk about his show and to get his take on mobile gaming. NOISE: What’s your goal for the show? Hartley: At its most absurdly ambitious I want to convince people that games are legitimate. There’s such a stigma against gaming — that it’s for kids, that it’s juvenile, that it’s immature. I’ve had so many experiences with gaming that are really profound and signiﬁcant. It’s like when you see an amazing movie and it kind of changes you a little bit. I’ve had those experiences because of a game, but they were even more powerful because you’re interacting with it. I want to get people to think about games this way. There are real artists working on these. NOISE: How have smart phones changed gaming? Hartley: Before, it was awful. (Mobile games) were clunky and came with your phone and you were just begrudgingly playing it because it was there. Now they are amazing experiences. iPhone has exploded mobile gaming. The app store was a pretty radical model because it was gaming for 99 cents. There are some iPhone games that look better than Playstation 2 games. NOISE: How does gaming impact other applications? Hartley: The technology to push gaming forward is largely responsible for pushing all of computing forward. The most competitive aspects of hardware development are gaming. People’s expectations change, so it really pushes it forward fast.

This book first hit nationwide news a couple of months ago, before it was picked up by a national publisher. I actually contacted the self-published author after reading an article describing the book, written for her son, a sweet, lively little boy who happens to like to wear dresses. The e-mail thanked her, because I know of no other picture book that so neatly addresses the expression of gender differences in children. Given the national debate over bullying and “bullycide,” this book couldn’t be more timely or needed, with its simple message stated on the title page: “As a community, we can accept and support our children for whomever they are and however they wish to look.” The colorful, faceless illustrations underline that Princess Boy could be any child, and the parents that accept him could be any parents — that the problem of prejudice comes down to each of us and our own choices and actions.

College of Music pays tribute to MLK, Jr.

The MSU College of Music will pay tribute to the life and legacy of Martin Luther King, Jr., with two free shows on Sunday at the Wharton Center’s Pasant Hall. The shows are part of the campus-wide celebration commemorating King’s life and work. “The theme for the MLK celebration is ‘Global Voices for Justice,’ and the jazz concert theme is ‘Broken Promises’ featuring the MSU triple big band performing protest songs by Max Roach, Booker Little and Ornette Coleman,” says Rodney Whitaker, who is the associate professor of jazz bass and director of jazz studies at Michigan State University. This year’s concert will feature the Michigan State University Children’s Choir performing “Dreams” by Rollo A. Dilworth, set to Langston Hughes poems “The Dream Keeper,” “Dreams,” and “I Dream A World.” The shows also highlights the Earl Nelson Singers (making their MLK Day Celebration debut singing African American spirituals), MSU faculty artists James Forger (saxophone) and Deborah Moriarty (piano), and the MSU Jazz Orchestra I, II and III. Paulette Granberry-Russell and Jeff Wray will MC the event. Also expect an appearance by Dr. Pamela Bellamy. • Two free jazz concerts, “Jazz: Spirituals, Prayer and Protest,” featuring MSU’s Jazz Orchestras, more, part of the campus-wide celebration commemorating the life and work of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. • 3 p.m. and 7 p.m. (two performances), Sunday, Jan. 16 • Wharton Center’s Pasant Theatre. • General admission tickets are free, but are required and available at the Wharton Center Box Office on a first-come, first-served basis. Donations are welcome at the concert to benefit the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Endowed Scholarships.

Clockwise from top: Living history: The brick structure of Patty Wieber’s loft is over 100 years old. Antiquing at home: Wieber collects antiques she’s discovered from clearing out her parents’ property to display in the loft. Open floor plan: Wieber’s Michigan Avenue loft has spacious rooms. Spiral staircase: A swirling set of stairs leads from the first floor of Wieber’s loft to the grass rooftop deck.

PATTY WIEBER

Lansing. What’s your design style? • A lot of it’s leftover from my old house and I’ve been bringing in the antiques as I find them. It’s just stuff I see that would go well in here. The stuff on the wall is just stuff that (my) dad kept. (He was) a depression baby, they don’t throw anything away. I’d love to go antiquing (but) I don’t really have to because I keep finding stuff.

Devo Tribute Band returns

After the success of December’s KISS and Devo tribute night at Oade’s Hidden Camel, which had hundreds crammed into the venue to hear the classic tracks, it seems logical to keep the momentum going. Now, the Devo tribute band — consisting of local musicians Isaac Vander Schuur (vocals), Tommy McCord (guitar), Ben Hassenger (keyboards), Nicholas Merz (bass) and Chris Urrabazo (drums) — is set to make a repeat performance with a free show at 8 p.m. Saturday at Basement 414 in Lansing. “I really enjoy playing in the Devo tribute band, because I’ve been friends with all of the guys in the band for a while. It’s a cool opportunity for us all to play together and tackle some challenging music,” says McCord, who also plays in local indie rock band The Plurals and heads up Lansing-based GTG Records. “Having a chance to play the music of Devo has made me enjoy and appreciate Devo more and has furthered me as a musician in an environment that’s also a lot of fun,” he added. “We don’t really have any plans to pursue this as a regular gig, but we’re certainly leaving the door open to do it again if it makes sense.” The group sold out of the initial pressing of their Devo tribute album, “Explosions: Lansing Salutes Devo,” so they pressed more and will sell them at this show. The compilation features 19 Lansing bands covering Devo. Longstanding Lansing space-pop/psychedelic rock band Calliope (who also appears on the compilation) kicks off the night. Calliope rarely plays Lansing these days, so if you haven’t checked out this Lansing musical icon yet, this is your chance. • Devo Tribute Band, called “Re-Evolution” • 7 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 15 • Basement 414, 414 E.

THE SCENE

Dimitri’s brought along some memories from the old location — such as lamps and paintings — but the furnishings and equipment are new. And although it’s been reported that the square footage from the two sites are about the same, the new restaurant seems bigger because of the ﬂoor plan. Plenty of sunshine also poured in from the windows, making it feel more open as well. And with a relocation comes a shift in diners, one of the ﬁrst things I noticed while I peoplewatched. Downtown state workers and students used to

THE FOOD

Do you ever get a craving for eggs and hash browns around lunch time? I guess that’s why there’s “brunch” — and at 12:30 p.m., it was the perfect time. Unfortunately, breakfast is served until noon. Big bummer. Thankfully, the expanded menu has plenty to offer — the famous Coney dogs and burgers, salads, sandwiches, wraps and more. I settled for the chicken tender pita ($5.49) and a side

of sweet potato tots. Laura had the chicken Caesar wrap ($5.29) and made it a platter ($2.49), which comes with fries and coleslaw. The wrap had grilled chicken breast, lettuce, Parmesan cheese and dressing. My pita had crisp chunks of chicken, American cheese, lettuce, tomato and mayo on a warm, soft, grilled pita. It had the right amount of mayo, similar to the amount of Caesar on the wrap — enough so the pita and wrap weren’t dry, while at the same time, it didn’t saturate or overpower the other in-

“Down There,” the debut solo joint from Animal Collective main bro Avey Tare, is the most liquid-sounding set of songs you’ll hear this year, short of dropping your iPod in the toilet. For any fans of Animal Collective’s more subdued material or Panda Bear’s “Person Pitch,” “Down There” will offer few surprises. But it does unfurl another layer of lo-fi, dense and vibe-heavy electronic psych folk. Gurgling synths, submerged beats and drowned vocals are the order of the day, culminating in a listening experience akin to a hipster merman with a four-track, recording his bedroom jam session. “Umbrellas,” the most accessible, and tellingly, AC-like track, is a buoyant trifle, registering as a B+ “Merriweater” outtake. At the other end of the spectrum comes “Heather in the Hospital,” an echoey, haunted almost-ballad about the discomfort of hospitals. Not a major addition to the AC crew’s canon, but still a challenging, textured album.

Amy Speace in E. Lansing

New York-based singer-songwriter Amy Speace spills her soul on “The Killer In Me,” her 2010 full-length release. Tracks such as “Dog Days” and “Storm Warning” tell the dark tale of relationships gone bad and making it through times of adversity and trial. “This is the record that I needed to make,” Speace says. “In many ways, it was the hardest thing I’ve ever done. And in some ways, it was the easiest. Writing the songs was emotionally difficult, deep and intense — it was kind of an exorcism. But in the end, the songs flowed pretty quickly. You write the things that you’re afraid to say out loud.” Speace, whose backstory includes everything from performing on off-Broadway to teaching Shakespeare in New York City schools, visits the East Lansing Pump House on Sunday. • Amy Speace • 7 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 16 • East Lansing Pump House, 368 Orchard Street, East Lansing • $10 suggested donation
