Record Store Day Wish List

Brooklyn Nine-Nine

By Lauren Cox

With Record Store Day approaching fast, check out what the Music Staff’s top picks for what releases to look out for at your local record store.

My favorite song by Rockford emo outfit and Skeletal Lightning Festival performers Joie De Vivre, “Sundays,” features a lyric like: “I don’t look up to enough local heroes.” While I struggle to quantify the number of local heroes I look up to (I “like” Don Gerard on Facebook, whatever that means), a handful come to mind who are especially relevant this week: Sean and Austin, who lead the buzz Music section, coordinated interviews with nearly every band playing at Skeletal Lightning this weekend (21 articles total, constituting over three-quarters of our online content since Monday); particularly heroic this week are Sean, Nathan, Skeletal Lightning, Error Records and everyone else involved in putting together the fest gracing this week’s cover. Major props to those guys for doing something cool, when all this rain would rather keep most people indoors. Maybe it’s best people stay in from the rain: it can get pretty dangerous. (Stellar segue, no?) I don’t mean in a “don’t-you-know-you-could-catch-hypothermia?” sort of way. I mean real, wet and slippery danger. Like riding-bikes-in-a-thunderstorm sort of danger. My freshman year of high school, my friend Brandon and I lived only a few blocks away from school and rode bikes there, weather permitting (as long as temperatures remained above freezing, we would ride, basically). The street that ran between our neighborhood and the school stretched over a massive hill before plummeting for 500 yards, leading to a stoplight. When you reached the top of the hill and could see what color the light was, and time your speed so you’d reach the stoplight just as it turned green. This story happens to take place on a day in mid-April, similar to many days we’ve enjoyed this week: partly sunny with occasional heavy rain, pleasant temperatures in the 60s, etc. Brandon and I were riding bikes home and, as we reached the top of the hill, realized the timing was perfect to reach the green light and cross the street at top speed. We began our descent gradually, the same as so many times before. Allowing gravity to do most of the work, we leaned in and began to build momentum. The rain pelted our faces, but the exhilirating speed outweighed that minor nuisance. We were Lando and Wedge, fleeing the imploding Death Star II. We were 100 feet away when the light turned green, right on time. But suddenly, the light changed back to red for an emergency vehicle coming from a perpendicular street. Brandon, riding about 10 feet ahead of me, came to an abrupt halt at the curb. I began to brake, too, but my tires slipped and I ran into the lowest branches of a tree. I walked away, but with some very bloody knuckles (which left a gnarly scar for the next few weeks). Moral of the story: be careful out there, everyone.

» Industrial Wedgies:

DON'T BE AN APRIL FOOL!

BY JOE MAZURKIEWICZ

Hey, did you realize Earth Day is right around the corner? If you didn’t, don’t feel bad; it is an easy holiday to forget. We all know something happens in April when school children wear the t-shirts with animals on them, and then it dawns on you. So, here is a friendly reminder from your friends at buzz: Earth Day is coming up on Tuesday, April 22 and, if you don’t want to look ignorant to our world, you will at least be able to slip it into a casual conversation. But if you’re interested in what Earth Day is and means for us, then keep reading. Earth Day came about on the heels of the 1969 oil spill in Santa Barbara, Calif. (sound familiar?) when a Wisconsin senator realized the power of protest and infused the spirit of the anti-war movement with environmental consciousness. On Earth Day 1970, citizens from every walk of life joined together and made known the need for clean air and water, creating an odd harmony between Americans. Earth Day 1990 propelled resource and sustainability issues onto the stage of 141 countries by 200 million concerned citizens and made clean energy a big-picture goal. With what faces our planet in the next 50 years — limited resources and overexploitation of said resources — the need for renewable and, more importantly, clean energy is still a relevant concern that affects each of us, whether we like it or not. So, check out some Earth Day literature and maybe learn a few new conservation skills. Also, attend Anita Purves Nature Center’s Earth Day Celebration on April 19 at 1 p.m. for a hike. The nature center is located at 1505 N. Broadway Ave. in Urbana. As cliche as it sounds, it is never too late to make a difference.

Based alone off of the title of this, you should feel me on this topic already. As a connoisseur of granny panties and cotton bikini cut varieties of undergarments, I consider my taste fairly simple and bland. I go for comfort, and preferably for some tubular prints, too. However, even within the most vanilla realm of panties, there are problems. As experienced earlier this week, I began feeling some sudden discomfort down low between the see-sawing of my buttcheeks. The notice of this occurrence was during the less preferable of times, amidst my running to catch a bus. (I missed it.) Anyone who has undergone these circumstances knows the problems of a wedgie building up — it's strong and feels like a sailor is adjusting a thick piece of rope up your bunghole, and it's usually public. It's terrible. While the easy solution of this lies in picking the wedgie, as had occurred before with this particular pair of underpants, a more elaborate problem also lies within this. These types of wedgies are comparable to the girth of a construction project with a behemoth digger being used on site to dig. No mere adjust your pants from outside will do — you dig, and you dig deep. Such an endeavor should not be experienced in a public domain, as it quickly becomes vulgar to wandering eyes. Thus, this industrial wedgie becomes an industrial problem. I do not like that one pair of underpants; nope, not at all. GUBBINS YIKES CARLY Community Editor

» Being a crazy cat lady at 21: Instead of freedom at 21, as Jack White says, I find that I am confined to the crazy cat lady title that, for so long, was reserved for my mom. Back at the ranch, I have three cats, BUT it doesn't stop there. Over the years, I have collected way too many cat-shaped and -decorated things: wine bottles, socks, coffee mugs...you get the idea. My friends have made the crazy cat lady comments many times, but, as with most realizations, I was the last one to come to it. Now, if I was, like, 40 and alone (but, how alone could I really be if I had 3+ cats?), that would be somewhat acceptable, but I'm not, so it's just really, really weird. And makes me really scared for what I'm going to be like when I'm 40. Oh well, at least I'll have my cats.

ach one of us fondly remembers that film or TV show on VHS that defined our childhood: the one that drove our parents crazy as we watched, rewound and rewatched it day after day until the film leaked into our mannerisms andBUZZ dreams and the dialogue etched itself into our memories FRIDAY forever. Let’s take a look back at these APRIL screen gems. 11 corp note...keep this same size always

The Mask: A VHS tape I can remember X 5.417 watching1over and over again was The Mask, starring 1/8th Jim Carrey. pageI love the movie, but my sister was the one who would rewind the tape and make me watch it many more times than I probably would have on my own. Regardless of who forced whom into it, The Mask is a film that’s embedded in my memory for life. Not nearly as popular as his hits Liar Liar or Bruce Almighty, The Mask still stands as a Carrey gem, filled to the brim with the actor’s signature zany humor. The movie follows a man named Stanley Ipkiss (Carrey), who is transformed into a wild superhero whenever he puts on a magical mask. The main character’s green mask and yellow suit is a visual staple from my childhood. I remember most vividly the scenes from the nightclub, featuring Cameron Diaz in her breakout role. If my sister and I didn’t have time to re-watch the whole movie, we’d rewind to Jim Carrey’s dazzling musical number, in which he dons Cuban attire, whips out a raucous Samba, and gets all of the other characters (not to mention the audience) to join in the SSSSSSMOKIN’ fun. -By David Robertson Batman and Robin: From the Bat Credit Card to the Bat Ice Skates to Arnold Schwarzenegger’s terrible puns as Mr. Freeze, Joel Schumacher’s utterly merciless murder of the Batman fran-

chise resulted in an eight-year pause in films, which took the brilliant writing and direction of Christopher Nolan to finally resurrect Batman from the campy, B-movie grave that Schumacher dug for him with this movie. But as a blissfully ignorant three-year-old, I fell in love with Batman and Robin, re-watching it a shameless amount of times. Even now, though I recognize the horrible writing and terrible acting that constitute a still-sore wound in the hearts of Batman fans worldwide, I also can’t help but detect a certain charm in the film’s utter depravity. Somewhere between Mr. Freeze’s ice puns (Take your pick: “What killed the dinosaurs? The Ice Age!” “Allow me to break the ice,” and “Let’s kick some ice!” are probably my favorites) and the 500th incidental shot of Bat-butt, the film still clings to a special place in my heart. It recalls the earlier, campy Adam West days of Batman, when the series featured gimmick villains such as Egghead and stood in stark contrast to the hyper-serious Nolan trilogy which, while brilliantly made, also sadly gave Batman the voice of a chain-smoker and left audiences with vague dictums about the hero Gotham deserves but doesn’t need or needs but doesn’t deserve. Sometimes, Batman needs to take himself less seriously, and Batman and Robin perfectly (perhaps too well) embodies this philosophy. -By Ash Valentine Pokemon: Indigo League: As a child, I had a cupboard full of VHS tapes to watch, but none were more beloved than my collection of season one Pokemon: Indigo League episodes. The tapes’ red cardboard cases showed obvious wear, and the tapes themselves became grainier and grainier over the course of countless viewings. Of these, the most worn and grainiest was the

VHS containing the episode “Charmander – The Stray Pokemon.” Despite my parents’ warnings that I’d jack up my eyesight, I’d plop down inches from the TV screen to watch as Ash first met and rescued Charmander, a Pokemon who’d almost died after being abandoned by his dickheaded trainer. The episode had all of the qualities that make Pokemon a source of nostalgia for ’90s kids: love, friendship, triumph, slightly cheesy animation and that killer theme song. -By Lauren Cox The Hobbit (1977): While the memory of Peter Jackson’s two epic CGI-drenched adaptations of The Hobbit are still fresh in audiences’ minds worldwide, my fondest Tolkien adaptation is still the 1977 animated version of The Hobbit. While it didn’t have the gravitas or scale of the Jackson films and lacked the majestic, gorgeous landscape shots and the awe of massive armies marching to do battle, the film did possess something magical — something that made it the cinematic equivalent of a bedtime story or a fairy tale. It’s also worth noting that the Japanese studio that animated the movie, Topcraft, was later reassembled to form the world-renowned Studio Ghibli, famous for groundbreaking animated films such as Spirited Away. Another memorable feature of the film was its theme song which — in contrast to the orchestral glory of the modern films — opted for simple singing accompanied by a guitar. While it wasn’t as stirring or intimidating as the beautifully arranged score in the modern films, the old song’s lyrics still manage to untie the knots in my heart today, and also embody the general, beautifully done tone of the film: “The greatest adventure is what lies ahead/Today and tomorrow are yet to be said.” -By Ash Valentine

FOOD & DRINK

BARSTOOL BITES

Shake up your night out with these essential CU snacks BY PAUL ANGELILLO

BREAKFAST, LUNCH & DINNER (AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN)

made with fresh ingredients FROM LOCAL FARMS!

T

he “drunk munchies� — whether an unavoidable craving brought on by the spirited consumption of alcohol or simply a bodily defense mechanism with the aim of putting something other than booze down our throats — make for some of the most satisfying (and guilty) food experiences. It then follows that with all of CU’s establishments dedicated to the brewing and crafting of beers and cocktails, there would be a similar market for the salty, sweet, briny and cheesy accompaniments that take a night of drinking to the next level. Far from greasy fast food or that bag of chips on the counter at home, these carefully crafted bar snacks will add a whole other dimension to your imbibing experience. 1. Big Grove Tavern’s spiced nuts, pickled vegetables and gourmet popcorn. Though these three delights are all separate menu items (the first two from the “bar snacks� menu and the last offered complimentary to patrons), it would be impossible to simply choose one to highlight. In this trio, one gets the most quintessential and traditional bar favorites with a vibrant twist. The spiced nuts are fresh and crunchy, with an optimal touch of salt and just the bit of heat that will drive you back for a refreshing gulp of beer. The pickles are made in-house and comprised of crunchy, tangy carrots, red onions, fennel and radishes that refresh the palate and get drunkards eating their veggies. The homemade popcorn, served in small galvanized buckets, constantly changes in flavor but is always fresh popped and addictive; you’ll find your bucket popcorn empty even more often than your cup. 2. Sakanaya’s late night menu chicken wings Expanding its original dinner hours to offer a spe-

cific late night menu running from 9:30 p.m. to 1 a.m. has proven to be a masterstroke for the Champaign sushi hotspot. Though there’s no bar per se to sit at, grab a table and some sake or a Japanese beer and experience the most unique — if not the flat out best — wings in CU. Available in “hot & spicy� and “soy garlic� varieties, Sakanaya tempura fries the wings to order, developing a crispy and flaky crust that seals in the chicken’s juices without surrounding it with needless bulk. Both sauces are quite tasty, with the soy garlic ones providing a flavorful alternative to the usual “mild� wings offered to those who dare not pick the spicy ones. Further, the sauces are brushed on, ensuring ample flavor without dripping onto any unsuspecting clothing. Altogether, the experience of crunchy tempura and unctuous, tender chicken is absolute heaven for the inebriated eater. 3. bacaro’s salt cod fritters If one finds him or herself having a classy sort of evening in downtown Champaign with less binge drinking and more wining and dining with someone special, bacaro’s new bar menu perfectly fits the bill. Excellently designed and romantically lit, the restaurant’s bar not only gives one a front row seat to its expertly curated selection of wines but is the only place to order resat delicate, astutely seasoned salt cod fritters. Though one rarely looks toward whitefish to snack on when plunked down on their barstool, the fritters are a bite-sized bit of crispy fish ‘n’ chips goodness. Pair them with a bit of white wine and experience CU’s most gourmet bar food experience. 4. Destihl’s beer-battered bacon What does a brewery know about food? Plenty, especially when it comes to pairing snacks with its own selection of in-house beers. More impor-

tantly, the folks at Destihl acknowledge the deep and unbridled love persons both drunk and sober hold for bacon. Dipped in a batter made from its own German-style Hefeweizen, studded with jalapeùos and served with a maple chipotle sauce, this slab of bacon has been raised to unimaginable heights of flavor and texture. The crispy coating yields itself to fatty, meaty, porky goodness bolstered by a mÊlange of spicy peppers and sweet, maple goodness. This complexity of sweet, spicy and meaty means that the bacon itself pairs well with nearly any one of the restaurant’s many offered brews, meaning nobody will have to miss out on the delicious appetizer. 5. Seven Saints’s cheese curds Though this list has traversed the lands of chicken wings and nuts, one bar food mainstay and essential beer pairing has glaringly gone missing. Beer and cheese. Cheese and beer. Two of the world’s simplest pleasures, yet ones that reach into the very depths of variety and complexity. In this case, Seven Saints makes the decision easy, offering hand-battered cheese curds made from local dairy. A good, medium-sized bite, the crunchy batter serves as a perfect textural interlude to the creamy, gooey and of course, squeaky cheese inside. The marinara provided as a dipping sauce is a valid option to accompany the flavor but is no substitute for one of the boatload of bottled beers offered. Channel your inner Wisconsinite (however hard that might be for some people) and enjoy this Midwestern delicacy. With such a glut of gourmet bar food options in CU, queasy stomachs everywhere no longer have any excuse to settle for the usual suspects. Even if these options don’t quite stay down, they’ll still taste a whole lot better coming up than anything else you find.

MUSIC

MORE THAN MUSIC Skeletal Lightning brings community together, provides new landmark in CU calendar SEAN NEUMANN

T

his weekend’s Skeletal Lightning Festival stands for more than just three days of live music. With Skeletal Lightning Fest transitioning into an annual event, mid-April now means something special to the local music scene. Late-September signals the coming of Pygmalion, and now the beginning of spring signals “Skeletal Lightning.” Sean Hermann’s DIY festival brings a weekend of live hardcore, emo, punk and metal to the CU music scene, but there’s something greater to be celebrated at the event than the shows themselves. The festival represents another spot on the map within the anthill-like complexion that lies hidden, just beneath the surface of the DIY music scene — tunneling from city-to-city and reaching from basement-to-basement across the country, connected at its heart out of the simple love for music. It’s a sacrifice in both the financial burdens of running a sponsor-free festival and in the meteoric spike in stress that comes with managing a 43-band bill, helping accommodate hundreds of visitors — both band members and fans — and organizing over 27 hours of live music to fit into just one weekend. Pile all that on top of running

his own DIY label of the same Skeletal Lightning name and working a normal day job, and buried underneath, you’ll find Hermann. Skeletal Lightning has already gained enough steam heading into just its second year to book the likes of Circle Takes the Square and legendary Chicago-punk outfit Weekend Nachos in headlining spots, attracting attendees from across the country. The festival also features rising emo acts Kittyhawk and Tiny Moving Parts, while also bringing in popular Midwest bands Tenement and Joie de Vivre. In the same way DIY venues, houses, labels, collectives — and every other “do it yourself” devotee — provide for a music scene, Skeletal Lightning Fest comes out of necessity. Whether it’s a venue like Error Records or the now-defunct Velvet Elvis, a homegrown label such as Polyvinyl Records or Crippled Sound, a promoter like Seth Fein or even just “that dude” handing out flyers on the Quad, each holds a certain vitality for the existence of the whole. Skeletal Lightning Fest isn’t alone in its dedication to the music scene, but this weekend marks its deserved time in the CU spotlight and calls for another moment of celebration in honor of the community that lies within our own backyard.

MAGICIAN MARKUS CLEGG’S NEW TRICKS UP HIS SLEEVE

Champaign’s traveling magician throws his third magic show together with help of other performers and acts. BY CASSIDY WILLIAMS

Used with permission from Sarah Chen.

T

he show began as a bit of a fluke. Markus Clegg, a local magician born and raised in Champaign, has been passionate about magic and performing since a young age. During the week of Halloween several years ago, the magic club Clegg was working for at the time was approached by a promotional organization called the Psychic Joker. The company asked Clegg if he would be at all interested in doing a show with them. As last minute decision, Clegg and a few other magicians took the challenge and were able to throw a show together for later that week. After seeing the show performed, a representative for the Psychic Joker told Clegg that he would really love to see Clegg do a show of his own. The Psychic Joker already had the location and the space for the performance, so Clegg said, “Why not? Let’s do it.” Four months later, the first Magic and Other Nonsense show became a reality. Clegg will be sharing this passion in his third annual Magic and Other Nonsense show this weekend. Clegg can remember watching magicians, such as Siegfried & Roy, on television when he was at the young age of five. He could not account for the purpose, but for some reason when he was eight, he insisted that his mother take him to the local magic shop. There, he would “terrorize” everyone he knew with magic tricks. From then on, every dollar he got his hands on went towards new tricks and magic books. When he was 14, he was able to join the local magic clubs and participate in Champaign’s relatively large magic community. Both the International Brotherhood of Magicians and the Society of American Magicians have chapters in Champaign. The clubs, in addition to the library and television, allowed for his knowledge of magic to really take off. At 16, Clegg started working for the local magic shop in town, Dallas & Co., sticking with them for seven years. Since then, he has worked all over the country, including Las Vegas. Wher-

ever his travels and destination took him, he was capable of finding local magic shops to work in and places to perform. Now back in Illinois, Clegg has been performing for many different types of audiences in the area. Whether it is close-up magic, stand-up magic, stage magic or mentalism, Clegg loves to perform. He loves card tricks when it comes to close-up magic, which is magic he generally performs at mixers, banquets and other settings with small audiences. He admits people get bored with card tricks despite his “magic addiction,” so he has many other tricks in his arsenal. When forced to choose just one, he said his favorite prop for close-up magic are sponge balls that multiply in the spectator’s hand. It is his personal favorite trick because of the interaction and experience with the participant. Like with sponge balls, Clegg enjoys the audience involvement when he performs stand-up or stage magic as well. One trick in particular, “The Devil’s Letter,” is an old trick from the 1920s that involves comedy, multiple audience participants, cards, a banana and fire. Although the trick takes about 10 minutes to perform, the audience experience is worth it to Clegg. Clegg puts a high value on audience participation because at its core magic, is an “interactive art form.” “You have to have a spectator for magic to exist. I could practice all day long, but if I don’t have an audience or a spectator, the magic doesn’t really happen because what I’m doing is not what you’re experiencing,” Clegg said. His favorite part of performing is providing the experience he mentions. As much as any performer loves applause, Clegg appreciates the silence when spectators realize what they just saw may be completely impossible. He hopes magic will help people forget about their troubles and take them back to the joy of childhood. It doesn’t matter whether it’s a child or an adult, both are capable of rekindling that innocent twinkle in their eye after a good magic trick. April 11-17, 2014 buzz 7

CLEANING OUT CHAMPAIGN-URBANA’S CLOSETS A guide on spring cleaning BY LAUREN EIDEN

A desk that needs some reorganization, Urbana, IL, Photo by Dani Rudy

T

he snow has melted and winter jackets are in the storage closet ... spring is here! Besides April showers bringing May flowers, spring also means one more thing: cleaning. The thing about “spring cleaning” is that there is never really a wrong time for a good clean. Still, it is as good of a time as any to tidy things up, whether that is cleaning up physical or emotional messes. To get started, read over the list below that explains what to clean up and why you should. If this all seems like a cleaning overload, there are actually professional organizers who people can hire to clean up all the clutter. Organize My Clutter is an organizing service that can help shape up many things, from bedrooms and life management to social media pages. They take clients within a 60-miles radius from Maroa, Ill., which includes CU. To schedule an appointment, you can call 519-1919. If you feel like you can take on spring-cleaning alone, begin with the list below. Your closet: There always seems to be a few items of clothing that are just too hard to part with, even though the last time you wore them

8 buzz April 11-17, 2014

was probably before your braces came off. For your own sake, get rid of them! With new styles coming out every season, it is extremely easy for closets to become over-stuffed with tons of clothes. However, a closet doesn't only look better with less clutter, but it also functions better. It allows you to visually see where all your different items of clothing are and creates more room to reach in and grab different things. And, of course, cleaning out your closet will give space for next season’s trends. Your hairstyle: With the the nice weather telling us that summer is right around the corner, a little excitement could be good. An easy way to feel refreshed by changing up your look is to get a new haircut style. If you have long hair, try getting a few inches taken off. If you have never tried bangs before, test them out. “I like to cut my hair in spring because it makes me feel lighter,” buzz staff writer Leah Parekh said. Whatever you have always thought about doing to your hair but never got around to it or never had the courage to do, do it now! It’s a fun way to start the season and shed some of that winter fur.

Any grudges you’re still holding: This is a big one. Grudges contain negative feelings and emotions that linger until you let them go. Some fights or events might seem so bad that it feels as though it is impossible to get over, but it is possible. One way is by seeking out those whom you are holding the grudge against, and either apologize or talk it out. If confrontation isn’t your thing, letting those negative feelings go is also okay. Just think about how much better you will feel with all that hatred off of your shoulders. The fridge and freezer: This is a simple one. Merely throw out any expired food, food you have forgotten about or food that you just know you are never going to eat. Old or moldy food can stink up the entire refrigerator or freezer, and that is probably not something that will make you hungry whenever you open up the doors. If you don’t even know where to begin, just clean the entire thing out, go to the grocery store and start fresh. Your ex: Stop. Just Stop. Stop reading your old texts, stop watching sappy romance movies and (for the sake of your own health) stop Facebook stalking your ex! If you find yourself doing any of

these things, it is time for an intervention. There are much better ways you could be spending your time. Make it a “spring cleaning goal” to get your mind off of this person and focus that energy elsewhere, whether that is schoolwork, friends or a hobby. You will be surprised how renewed you will feel. Your desk/work area (aka a person’s central location for clutter): Can’t find a place to put something? Shove it in your desk drawer. Except, now is the time to take out all those random items and pieces of paper that you can’t even remember why you saved. “I feel like I can’t even work at my desk now because there (are) so much clothes and other random things all over it. I should probably clean it up before finals start,” University freshman Emily Wilensky said. A desk is a place of work; therefore, it should reflect a proper working environment. It will be much easier to focus once you toss those old gum wrappers, dried up pens and smelly, old food. Now, finish this issue of buzz and get to cleaning!

Continued from page 7 “I like providing that moment of wonder for people, it’s something I can share with the world that everybody seems to joy. It helps people remember that the world is a miraculous and wonderful place,” Clegg says. As much as Clegg loves to perform, he also likes to provide the opportunity for others to get on stage in front of a crowd. To have a set show in the industry is becoming increasingly rare, and the Magic and Other Nonsense show provides this forum. The first year, Clegg did the entire show by himself. He found it was hard to fill an hour and half all by himself. Last year he invited a juggler, a speed painter and another magician to perform. This year, he found all new performers: James the Magician from Madison, Wisconsin, ventriloquist Hannah Leskosky and the Leaders for Life Martial Arts Demo Team. James’ vaudeville, street-style magic provides a contrast to Clegg’s more formal magic. As Clegg puts it, James is a little more “hip”. James is also originally from Illinois and has been practicing magic for over twenty years. When Clegg looks for performers he simply asks around, because he never knows who will have connections that will benefit his shows. Clegg found Leskosky through Andy Dallas, the owner of the local magic shop. He considers himself lucky to have found Leskosky because he had so desired a ventriloquist for becoming a part of the show. She is originally from Champaign and is coming home from graduate school to perform. The third addition to the show is the Leaders for Life Martial Arts Demo Team, who is a part of the local leaders for life Taekwondo School. The team is led by University of Illinois medical student Andy Wong. Clegg emphasizes that this assorted show can reach a broad and diverse audience. He says he can do a strictly kid-show or perform for an adult bar crowd, but instead he likes to make this show appealing to people of all ages, although he admits that this comes as a tough challenge. Clegg does however recommend that kids attending should be over the age of ten for the sake that younger children may get restless and bored sitting in a theater for an hour and a half. In addition to families, young adults, married couples and elderly couples have also been in attendance. One couple that attended last year was in their late eighties. Normally, Clegg is a self-contained performer, setting up by himself wherever the show takes him. However, this show requires sound cues, lighting cues and other aspects only to be found in a theatre. This year the event will be held at the Fluid Event Center, which allows for the show to double in capacity from last year. If you attended last year, Clegg says the new venue is much more comfortable and provides a more conducive environment. Unlike in the past, there should not be poles blocking any certain seats from contented viewing. The show runs both Friday, April 11 and Saturday, April 12. Doors open at 7:00 p.m. and the show begins at 7:30 p.m. You can buy tickets in advance for $12 or at the door for $15. Tickets can be purchased at Exile on Main Street, LIX and at the Fluid Event Center. “It’s great for all ages; bring your family, friends, and kids,” Clegg says.
