T

he “Coffee and Conversations” series returns for its sixth year at the Long Beach Island branch of the Ocean County Library in Surf City with a program titled “Survival Tactics of a Summer Host” on Monday, June 25, at 7 p.m. Co-sponsored by the Jewish Community Center of LBI, the discussion is moderated by Barbara Lehman, a retired high school teacher. Lehman said that when having company on the Island, the host has to find ways to provide meals, keep the house in order and ready for guests, and make sure everyone is entertained, no easy task. She said each attendee is invited to bring his or her top three “survival tips” for such times, which can be both enjoyable yet stressful. “We’re going to do a little brainstorming,” she said. “It will be an exchange of ideas. One thing I make sure (when expecting company) is to have plenty of iced tea in the refrigerator. I also ask that people bring their own beach towels.” Lehman said when guests include small children, hosts need to know where the playgrounds and bay beaches are. “If you don’t want to cook, you have to come up with ideas on where to order takeout food,” she said . “One thing that is sure to come up is what can you do or where can you go when it rains and you have to make alternate plans because you can’t go to the beach.” To register for the program, call the branch at 609-4942480. —E.E.

Potential Poets May Find Their Inner Muse

P

oetry has always been a part of Richard Morgan’s life, but when he retired as a college administrator three years ago, he found more time to devote to composing verses and honing his craft. The result was I Am Sea Glass: A Collection of Poetic Pieces and Sea Glass People: Portraits of Words and Watercolors. Accompanying the poems are illustrations by his wife, Pat Morgan, a longtime member of the Pine Shores Art Association in Manahawkin. The Beach Haven resident believes there is “poetry in everyone,â€? and he’ll discuss his inspirations for writing verse Wednesday, June 27, at 9:30 a.m. at the Long Beach Island branch of the Ocean County Library in Surf City. In the program sponsored by the Friends of the Library, Morgan said he would read from some of his works and offer guidelines to budding poets. “The main thing is to express your feelings and write what is on your mind,â€? he said. “And don’t get hung up on rhyming the words. You can always go back and edit and do some ďŹ ne-tuning. But that’s for later. The priority is to get your thoughts on paper.â€? Morgan said that if time permits, attendees will get a chance to compose some verses. To register, call the branch at 609-4942480. —E.E.

Come to the Shelter, Meet the Cool Dogs; Eat Some Hot Dogs

I

f you’re thinking about adopting a pet, the June Jamboree is a good time to look at the Southern Ocean County Animal Facility in Manahawkin this Saturday, June 23 from 1 to 4 p.m. The shelter is located at 360 Haywood Rd. – turn off Route 72 toward the Stafford Park shopping plaza (Target store). The shelter is full of loving dogs and cats needing a new home right away, through no fault of their own. “The June Jamboree is being held to encourage the public to visit our attractive shelter and see all the healthy, lovable dogs and many, many cats in need of homes,” invited Dottie Reynolds of Barnegat Light, president of the Friends of Southern Ocean County Animal Shelter. “These pets are victims of foreclosures when their owners cannot find a rental that will allow pets, divorce, death, illness or owners without enough time to care for them. They do not understand why they are in the shelter and are often grieving, lonely and confused. “Before looking elsewhere for a pet, please give one of these dogs or cats a second chance in your home,” Reynolds urged. The June Jamboree is a great time to see the animals, some of which are available with the adoption fee waived. The event doubles as a “celebration of summer” with a bake sale and snacks of hot dogs available, along with T-shirts, car magnets, and the chance to meet other pet lovers, such as the staff and volunteers of the shelter. But even if the dog or cat of your choice does require an adoption fee, it has already been spayed or neutered, micro-chipped and vaccinated, as are all animals up for adoption from the shelter. People who are already pet owners can bring their pet on this day for photos. Anyone attending might also want to bring pet food to support the shelter’s pantry. The Friends group operates a pet food bank that will be open for donations. For more information, call 609-978-0127. —M.S.

31 SECTION TWO

T

sunk his ride into the beach sand in Ship Bottom. I don’t even lock my cars, but then again, someone might want your Beamer more than my beater. And I do realize you can’t usually just disengage the alarm when you hit the bridge. Fair enough. So, as promised, here is the tip…. When your car alarm is screaming like an Edvard Munch painting, simply pop open the hood and disconnect the battery. In some cases, you might even be able to just pull the fuse. Granted, this doesn’t fix the defect, but that’s not our problem. You’ll have peace and quiet as you figure out your next move. Just shut that thing up. Speaking of headaches, last week when I was prophesying about the three days of northeast wind in our future, I had no idea it would become such a cause for concern on LBI. Not only was the surf situation kind of a wet blanket, but it caused a whole other boatload of problems. NBC and FOX 29 both had vans poking around the Island on Saturday and they’re somewhat of a grim reaper. Ever notice that the major news crews are never here for good news? It’s always storm damage or medical waste. This time it was, to quote Neil Young, “the needle and the damage done.” First of all, it wasn’t three days of northeast wind. It turned out to be a good six-day blow. Unlike the daily sea breeze pattern we’re soon to get into, this wind didn’t die in the evening. It was rather unrelenting for nearly a week. But we did get waves out of the deal. It’s rare that we get 20 days of rideable surf in June, but we’re on track for that. But, as I had predicted, we never had that one stellar session. I’ve gotten a few reports of decent waves at the South End on Friday. Apparently, there were some peeling lefts in Ship Bottom on Sunday afternoon. When the wind finally died on Monday, we likely had our best surf of the whole run. Surf City had enough punch to still be considerable fun. The surf never really broke that two- to occasional four-foot mark, which was the primary downfall. Had we had a day of five- or six-foot sets, even the slop would have been more enjoyable. Actually, last Thursday, the wind was more north/northwest. The first wave I had in Surf City was an against-the-grain right peak that threw, with the wind blowing right into the barrel. I was mildly bummed that I got clipped before coming out of the tube, but was more bummed that it was the only wave that really set up like that in the whole session. But the big topic was the waste that arrived on our beaches on Saturday, causing beaches from Beach Haven to Barnegat Light to pull swimmers out of the water for the rest of the day. I surfed at mid-day right about low tide and was alerted of the news via Alliance for A Living Ocean shortly after. The debris ranged from garden variety plastics to that most alarming of all flotsam and jetsam: dozens of

own recipe cards. Kids can learn about clams and wampum, making their own wampum necklace to take home. Local historian Carl Tarnow will tell you all about the “pound fishery,” a type of fishery that was done from the shore of Long Beach Island. Tarnow will also show how fishing nets were made. Join photographer Sue Puder, author of New Jersey Birds and Beyond, for a slide show, book signing and talk. Other activities are always available such as miniature golf, a small

farm-animal zoo, the New Jersey Surfing Museum, Perrine’s Boat Works, decoy carvers and boat trips on Tuckerton Creek (for an additional $5 fee.) The Baymen’s Seafood and Music Festival has been rated as one of the top New Jersey outdoor festivals by NJ Countryside Magazine. Admission to the festival is $8 for adults, $6 for seniors, $3 for children ages 6 to 12, and free for 5 years or younger. Tuckerton Seaport members are free. Food is not included in admission. *

hypodermic needles. I don’t think there’s anyone who doesn’t cringe at the thought of what disease might be festering inside improperly disposed of intravenous paraphernalia. On Sunday, the beaches were combed, the water was tested and the state’s coastal surveillance choppers didn’t find any problem areas. Although there were reports of a few needles (a fraction of Saturday), bathers were once again allowed by the shoreline and in the ocean. Clearly, the needles are not coming from LBI. The six days of onshore wind drifted them in from somewhere to our north (…I’m looking at you, New York Harbor). “There have been all sorts of rumors, from junkies in New York City to a garbage barge that got sideswiped by a wave,” Chris Huch, ALO’s executive director, told me on Monday. I know some Island businesses were sore about local sources like ALO alerting people of the event, which in turn, puts tourism revenue at risk. “It’s tough for us. We’re the watchdog,” says Huch, “We don’t want to

hurt local business. A few of the surf shops are co-sponsoring events with us this summer. But at the same time, you have to have a call to action. We need some of these businesses to be a little more supportive. But we’re not going to be alarmists, just realistic. ALO started in 1987 for this exact problem. Of course, things are much cleaner now, but there is a lot more work that needs to be done.” Five Points Here: One: I was a grom learning to surf in 1988 and recall the “syringe tides” and utter grossness of it all. No one had a very good summer. Two: I don’t like the term “Closed beaches.” Beach patrols kept people out of the water, but the beaches were open the whole time. This doesn’t marginalize the problem, but its not like people were banished from the sand. I think we are all in agreement that we need that steady flow of eastbound cars if we’re going to eat during this winter and news sources should be clear that the beaches were not off limits. Three: If the public isn’t properly warned and someone takes an infected

needle to the foot, just wait and see what happens to business then. The Delaware Water Gap and those casinos in Connecticut will start sounding real good to New Jerseyans on summer vacation. Four: I called both the Atlantic City and Seaside Park beach patrols and they didn’t have an incident all weekend. For some reason, it was just us. Five: I actually don’t have a fifth point, but ‘four points’ doesn’t sound good. Huch also mentioned that the needles had ID numbers on them, and hopefully they will be tracked back to the source. I personally saw a handful of the hypodermics and they had clearly identifiable markings. Back when ALO formed, it got behind important legislation. One such piece was the Medical Waste Tracking Act of 1988, which aimed to “promulgate regulations on the management of infectious waste” for New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Rhode Island and Puerto Rico. The idea was to see hazardous materials Continued on Page 36, Sec. 2

et’s start this column with a little tip. My theory on cars is to buy used and pay cash. I have two vehicles, one for distance and one for Island function. Turns out it’s really not very expensive to insure a second vehicle. (That’s not the tip, but if you can find an old pickup for cheap, they are invaluable.) A few years back I found this old Ford F-100 step-side, talked the owner down to $1,700, and it has paid for itself many times over – renovations, sandy surfboards, landscaping stone, oversized yard sale finds, my canoe, Dumpster runs, or hauling crab bait. It’s almost 30 years old with rusted panels, so there’s no worry of dirt or ding. And it keeps my other car looking like there’s not a homeless person living in it. The truck comes from an era when the American auto industry actually built things to last. The straight-six has been used in everything from muscle cars to wood chippers and, although there are holes in this truck’s floor where you can see the asphalt as you drive, it might run forever. Now don’t get the idea that I have any kind of engine know-how. I’m what you’d call “mechanically declined.” But this truck is so simple, with so much room under the hood that even I have been able to troubleshoot and fix problems (albeit usually with zip ties, the “duct tape of the new generation.”) And it’s fully loaded – like a vent down by your ankles that you open and close to allow airflow in the summer. Any guy can appreciate the value of a breeze directed right at his groin. I’m especially a fan of the manual locks and windows. Yes, you actually roll them down. When you buy vehicles with the intent to drive them into the ground, these are things you look for – less stuff to break. I hate computers in cars. I had a VW Golf that ran like a jet, but due to some digital glitch, the alarm would sound for no reason. I would be trying in vain to make the screeching stop, figuring that at any second, my neighbor was going to step out in his bathrobe with a rifle and put a bullet in my skull. I wound up selling that whip with full disclosure to a young girl from Barnegat Light four years ago. We spoke recently and she appreciated the reggae cassette I had left in the tape deck. Fortunately, her mechanic found a work-around for the alarm issue. But that alarm – that shrill wahwah-wah piercing through town – was a nightmare. I bring this up because there seems to be a lot of visitors’ car alarms going off through all hours lately. There was a college kid whose security system terrorized families in Surf City two weeks ago. And last weekend, an SUV in Ship Bottom was screaming through the night. First off, no one’s going to steal your car on LBI. Come on. We might steal your heart, or your wave, or your flip-flops, but not your car. I know of one car theft on LBI. I think it was back in ’99, when a guy was drinking at the Quarter Deck Inn and someone

wo excellent bands fill the bill this weekend as the Tuckerton Seaport celebrates its 20th annual Baymen’s Seafood and Music Festival, Saturday and Sunday, June 23 and 24, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. On Saturday, the Motts Creek Pickers, local musicians from down Galloway way, keep things rocking with their acoustic collection of All-American classics. Guitarist and lead vocalist Steve Gitto is joined by fiddle player and singer Jack Zawocki, backed up by Joe Faunce on bass. The three honed their craft entertaining shore crowds at the Motts Creek Inn for many years, offering a menu of classic rock and country. Sunday is supposed to be a day of rest, but when The Billy Walton Band gets cranking, everybody dances. Walton has been playing rock guitar for 15 years and has played with some real heavies – Bruce Springsteen, Gary U.S. Bonds and Stevie Ray’s band Double Trouble. Before forming and touring with his own band, he was a member of the Asbury Park music scene’s Boccigalupe. Walton is a hometown boy and is warmly greeted by family and friends whenever he blows into Tuckerton. His band includes sax player Richie Taz, bass player William Paris and drummer Johnny D’Angelo. Get ready for an afternoon of funky blues and fullthrottle rock. Now for the Seafood part of the weekend. Enjoy delicious Jersey Fresh clams, crabs, scallops and shrimp from the finest local seafood purveyors. (For those who crave turf rather than surf, other outdoor food vendors will be on hand.) Activities and programs throughout the day at the Seaport will take visitors behind the scenes of the fishing and clamming industries and introduce them to working, local baymen. “From the Bay to the Table,” a program presented by the Jersey Shore Folklife Center, introduces clammers Fred Kalm and Doug Downs as they tell the tale of clamming in Barnegat Bay. You can also learn how to open a clam from an expert, and then eat it raw. Learn about traditional Barnegat Bay recipes from Pola Galie, and make your

33 SECTION TWO THE SANDPAPER/WEDNESDAY, JUNE 20, 2012

By RICK MELLERUP ociologists who bemoan the demise of the extended family must have never been to the circus. Because the Oklahoma-based Kelly Miller Circus, which visited Eagleswood last Wednesday, is basically an extended family, and a huge one at that. “We have 93 people in our family,” said Rebecca Ostroff, Kelly Miller’s star aerialist. There are children, Ostroff said, including her own 13-year-old daughter. And like most American kids, they are busy at school. “It isn’t a ‘circus school,’” said Ostroff. “We don’t teach them circus skills. It’s a regular school. They have two hours of traditional classes each morning and one-on-one instruction in the afternoon, Monday through Friday. Our school works with public schools so they can step right in to a class in the off-season.” The children have more “pets” than most kids, including some

S

common ones such as dogs, ponies and cats (although the five Kelly Miller cats, being tigers, are a little larger than most tabbies). There are also more exotic varieties such as elephants, camels and zebras. Adults, meanwhile, are busy working, and boy, do they work, considering that multi-tasking is the norm in a small traveling circus – Ostroff not only spends her evenings swinging on a trapeze 39 feet above the crowd but also guides visitors through an early-morning tour that includes the opportunity to see the big top raised by an elephant named Lisa. At other times she helps stitch rents in costumes and tents. The family that eats together stays together, and one of the highlights of a long day at Kelly Miller is when the “flag’s up,” meaning the cookhouse is open. The Kelly Miller family is selfsufficient. One of the first things the hard-working riggers do when the circus caravan of some 25 vehicles

arrives in a new town every morning is lay out hundreds, perhaps thousands, of feet of water hoses; its own generator provides all of the power it needs. “One of our requirements (along with a space at least 300-by-300 feet) is a water hookup,” said Ostroff. “Other than that, we bring everything, we’re our own city.” Mornings are busy for most families, with everybody rushing about, showering, getting dressed, wolfing down a breakfast before racing off to school or work. The Kelly Miller family is no exception. Indeed, the average circus morning would make the typical hectic morning of an American family look like a walk in the park. The trucks roll out of the town the circus performed in the evening before at 5:30 a.m. Upon arrival at the new destination, the animals have to be fed, the aforementioned water hoses laid out, the generator started. The big top is staked out, with 82 very large stakes. “We have a hydraulic stake driver now,” said Ostroff, “which is good, because the old sledgehammers were really hard on the shoulders.” At 9 o’clock the show-before-theshow is ready to commence and Lisa makes her appearance, raising the big top’s four main, a.k.a. king, poles. In Eagleswood about 50 kids and their parents watched, and jumped, too, when Lisa decided to trumpet a sudden and loud “good morning.” Raising the big top, which is imported from Italy and is truly big, at 39 feet high and 120-by-130 feet, large enough to seat 1,500 (although nobody is more than 40 feet away from the action), is no mean feat. It takes about two-and-a-half hours to set up and about an hour to break down. The Kelly Miller Circus normally performs two shows, afternoon and evening, with things not wrapping up on some nights until 9 or so. That’s every day, said Ostroff, from Feb. 9 to Oct. 25, except Easter and Mother’s Day. True, she agreed, circus workers have a long vacation break but, unlike teachers, “we don’t get weekends off as well.” The circus visits some 200 different towns each season, with 10,000 miles traveled before the troupe returns to its “barn” (winter quarters). Needless to say, the circus workers feel like a real family by the time it is all over. Born Into, Captivated By There are many nuclear families within the Kelly Miller extended family.

TENT CITY: The Kelly Miller Circus is a self-sufficient operation, requiring little more than a 300-by-300-foot space and a water hookup. Everything else is brought in, set up, broken down and taken out in short order, visiting 200 towns and traveling 10,000 miles from February to October. Ostroff not only travels with her daughter but with her husband, a musician/computer operator with the small circus band. Then there’s the Fusco Family Gauchos, a family act from Argentina. Talk about circus families, the Kelly Miller Circus is now headed by John Ringling North II. That’s right, “those” Ringlings! Albert, August, Otto, Alfred, Charles, John and Henry were Ringling’s great uncles; his grandmother was their only sister. Circus performers have a pecking order somewhat similar to the residents of Long Beach Island. Let’s face it, on LBI the top of the crop are the native born Islanders, followed by longtime residents (you can live on the Island for 40 years and still not be considered a true Islander), recent arrivals and, finally, “summer people.” In the circus it is much the same.

“A lot of the people in the show were born in the circus,” said Ostroff, who wasn’t necessarily referring to Kelly Miller but the industry as a whole. “Then you have your JohnnyCome-Latelies, who join the circus later in life; and your First-of-May people, the newcomers.” (Traditionally circuses present their first show on May Day, so that would be a new employee’s starting date.) Ostroff is a Johnny-Come-Lately. She was a modern and post-modern dancer in New York in the 1980s. She was studying at the Martha Graham School and was told that some gymnastics training would be of assistance. Ostroff found a gymnastic club on 57 th Street where trapeze skills were also taught. She fell in love with the trapeze and then, one day, somebody at the club came up to Continued on Page 41, Sec. 2

‘Safe House,’ ‘Sherlock’ Surefire Four-Baggers H

By BILL GEIGER appy solstice, everyone! It just so happens this week’s SandPaper comes out on the summer solstice. Now that’s cause for an extended celebration. Not only is this the first day of summer, but ancient civilizations everywhere that tracked the sun’s passage across the heavens would often mark the solstice as a date worthy of great hoopla. Here at DVDiscussion, we’ll celebrate the fortnight around the first day of summer with a look at some new DVD releases, being careful to enjoy the long stretches of daylight that surround this time of year with outside stuff while keeping the DVD player stoked and the popcorn ready to pop. It can be a dicey dilemma, but we must give the films their due. Starting off, we can’t do much better than Denzel Washington and Ryan Reynolds in “Safe House,” a corkinggood spy story about CIA man Tobin Frost (Washington), who goes rogue and, once back in the agency’s clutches, is ensconced in a South African safe house under the watchful eye of newcomer Matt Weston (Reynolds). When bad guys come looking for Frost, the wily old spy teaches neophyte Reynolds a thing or two about survival. Grab four bags of popcorn for this suspenseful, thrilling and fun caper film. British director and former Madonna hubby Guy Ritchie directed Robert Downey and Jude Law in 2009’s “Sherlock Holmes,” and he and they are back with another, even better Holmes film. I liked the 2009 version, even though it got a tepid reception from many critics (ah, what do they know), and there’s as much fun to be had in the new one, “Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows.” For one thing, Downey plays a great, if somewhat hyperactive, Holmes, and Law is back as the very bellicose Dr. Watson, teaming with Sherlock to fight their great nemesis, Professor Moriarty (Jared Harris). Moriarty is finally a ma-

jor part of the film this time around and not just a shadowy figure in a coach, as he was in the first Ritchie film. Plus, as a bonus, Noomi Rapace (who played Lisbeth Salander in the Swedish version of “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo”) co-stars as a gypsy woman who helps Holmes and Watson. This second Holmes is vastly entertaining, and another bona fide four-bagger. The Disney studios put a lot of hope (not to mention money) into Edgar Rice Burroughs’ 1912 story “John Carter,” about a Civil War vet who gets himself transported to Mars and winds up leading an uprising against 12-foot-tall aliens. Director Andrew Stanton, who made his name in animated films, tried to give “John Carter” an epic feel, but the film lacks the gravitas to be a real classic. Taylor Kitsch stars as Carter, and he tries to beef up the role all he can, but he doesn’t quite have the chops to do much for the film. Thus, the film turns out to be mostly a bland undertaking, much like the Martian landscape. We’ll give two bags of corn for “John Carter.” Here’s a film that has us taking the middle road, since it was made without professional actors but is in the crosshairs of our current geopolitical conflicts. “Act of Valor” stars reallife Navy SEALs, ultimate warriors who are sent in to rescue a captured CIA operative and wind up uncovering a much more serious terrorist threat to the United States. They travel around the globe battling terrorist cells and working to undermine and dismantle the threat, engaging in epic firefights and keeping our half of the world safe for democracy. The SEALs are good tactically in the battle scenes but highly overmatched in front of the camera. Parts of the movie look like a video game, parts like a military recruitment film. But how to judge it? You’re on your own with this one. I don’t want to sound unpatriotic if I dismiss it, and the battle scenes certainly do rock. So we’ll give “Act of Valor” two bags of popcorn,

played Julius Caesar in HBO’s “Rome,” plays Roarke, a.k.a. the Devil, and he’s far more sinister than he needs to be in this flick, which is a second- or even third-rate film. One bag of corn will suffice for this way-over-the-top venture into schlock filmmaking, even if Cage’s name is above the title. Here’s one that will keep you thinking long into the night. HBO productions put together a rousing cast for its look at the 2008 economic meltdown called “Too Big to Fail.” Starting with the near-demise and then bailout of Lehman Brothers, and on through the end of October of that dreadful year, “Too Big to Fail” looks at the personalities behind the scenes – men such as Tim Geithner, Ben Bernanke, Warren Buffett, Henry Paulson and Richard Fuld (the Lehman Brothers CEO) – and, perhaps scariest of all, how close we all came to experiencing another Great Depression. Director Curtis Hanson keeps the tension ratcheted up despite the lack of so-called action, and the film works on many levels. Paul Giamatti, William Hurt, Billy Crudup, James Woods and Ed Asner are wonderful as Bernanke, Paulson, Geithner, Fuld and Buffett, respectively. Grab four bags of popcorn for “Too Big to Fail,” and hope we never have to experience something like that again. The film “Thin Ice” is a great example of what happens when studio types take over an independent film and force their “vision” onto the product. “Thin Ice” was at one time called “The Convincer” by writer/ director Jill Sprecher and told the story of an insurance salesman in Wisconsin (Greg Kinnear) who, yearning to get out of the dead-end state (and his dead-end job), gets mixed up with some ne’er-do-wells; then things go downtown in a hurry. Sprecher apparently took “The Continued on Page 36, Sec. 2

Liquid Lines Continued from Page 31, Sec. 2 from “cradle to grave.” It also helps to label waste, to determine where it’s from and go after the scummers who are guilty. Those knowingly letting dangerous crap into our waterways face fifteen years imprisonment. Okay, moving on. Last Saturday was the fifth annual Dean Randazzo Cancer Foundation Paddle for a Cause, the grueling 22.5-mile endurance gut-check around Absecon Island. For the third year in a row, Surf City native Mark Temme won the SUP 14-foot class. It was not an easy race. Temme lives in New York and does SUP lessons and tours on the Hudson River. He also has been competing at the Stand Up World Tour Sunset Beach Pro in some serious Hawaiian surf. Temme used all that north windchop to his advantage. Ship Bottom’s Billy Mehl took third, calling it the hardest paddle of his life. We also need everyone to be on the lookout for a blue Surf Tech stand-up paddle board that was stolen from Harvey Cedars this weekend. If you have a lead, call Graham Mergenthaler at (732) 618-9492. These SUPs seem to have legs compared to other boards. Maybe that’s where we need to start installing alarms. We have two new quivers this week at Sandpaper, Show Us Your Quiver. One comes from Surf City landscaper and classical guitarist,

Marc Halikus. Halikus is returning to the water from a shoulder injury and was very adamant that a proper quiver shot should just be the boards and not the surfer. The second comes from Beach Haven carpenter, Bill DeWitt. This one’s particularly cool, as Bill’s daughter, Jamie DeWitt, shared her quiver from Florida last week. Bill lives alone and found someone walking down the street to snap him and his quiver. Enjoy, and e-mail me a shot of you and your quiver at joncon@ thesandpaper.net. Pat “Surfcat” Emery sent me the results from the ESA CNJ event on Ohio Avenue in the Township last weekend, sponsored by Surf Unlimited and Speakeasy Pizza and it was a banner day for the Island locals. Ali Driber won Jr. Womens and Kali Emery owned the Womens. Brian Bowker took second in Jr. Mens and third in Open, while Rick Huegi held down another victory in the Senior Mens, on Father’s Day no less. It was a good day for the Frack family, as son Adam took second in Masters and dad Jesse won Legends. And continuing his massive return to competitive surfing, Ric “Aloha” Anastasi (another dad) took third among the longboarders. The constant surf and northeast winds we had were courtesy of low pressure offshore and high pressure over the East Coast. That looks to come to an end and much to our dismay, the surf looks lame for the weekend. We’re also going to see an end to this cool, crisp weather we’ve been enjoying. I heard some reports from out in the Pines of mid-50s at night last week. Thursday

is supposed to be a scorcher, but we return to a more comfortable climate next week. For those interested, Billabong will host the Seek and Destroy tow-at surf event this weekend at Steel Pier in Atlantic City. The name is borrowed from a track off the 1984 Metallica album Kill ’em All, and the tow-at is part of the Orion Festival at Bader Field. Metallica will headline the fest on both Saturday and Sunday night, but there are a host of other great bands rocking out. On June 30, Farias Surf and Sport will again host the local stop of the Hurley Rip My Shred Stick tour. It’s hard to say exactly which pros will be at our local event, but the East Coast guys like Michael Dunphy, Brian Toth, Asher Nolan, Noah Snyder and Mikey DeTemple should be on hand. It looks like California soulster Rob Machado has been out to a few of these as well. You never know… I do know that parents raved about this event last year, as the Hurley crew really brings the fun for kids under 16 years old. It’s a chance to have a fun surf with pointers from the Hurley guys, and a very low-key surf contest with a slideshow, party in the afternoon, and great prizes. Last year, they had a Slip ’n Slide on the beach. Parents can sign their kids up at Farias’ Ship Bottom location. The Surf Shack South will start summer Skim Camps next week, under the instruction of longtime Shack surfer/skimboarders Kyle Calandra and Brian Carey of Ship Bottom. These are two-day camps (Monday and Tuesday) for all ability levels of 5 years old and up. It is sponsored

DVDiscussion Continued from Page 34, Sec. 2 Convincer” to the Sundance festival, where it was well-received and even ended up with studio backing. Here’s where her story, the one about the film, goes downtown. The studio decided on major revisions, hacking it up and re-shooting scenes, and “The Convincer” became “Thin Ice.” Word on the Internet claims that the Blu-ray release will have Sprecher’s original along with the studio mashup. We’ll reserve two bags for “Thin Ice” and three for “The Convincer.” By the way, Billy Crudup’s in this one, too. For those in need of a large dose of sap, we have “A Little Bit of Heaven,” where sap flows like water down a flume. Kate Hudson plays Marley Corbett, a young woman who likes to have fun and thinks life is one big joke, if only to keep her relationships, which she happens to fall into frequently, from going too far. One day she visits her doctor (Gael García Bernal) and is told she has colon cancer, and suddenly all jokes are off. Literally. You can see where this is going. It’s not really that bad, and Kate Hudson is easy on the eyes (as is Bernal, playing Julian Goldstein), so we’ll give two bags of popcorn for “A Little Bit of Heaven.” How bad could it be with Whoopi Goldberg playing God? The Submarine Movie of the Week: I’m not sure where he stands now that we’ve moved into the new millennium, but back in the late 20th century, Tom Clancy was The Man. One of his early books was The Hunt for Red October, which became a very good film with Alec Baldwin as agent Jack Ryan, who thinks a very highly sophisticated Soviet submarine, code-named Red October, is heading toward the United States’ coast to defect, not start a nuclear war. But the cat-and-mouse game with an American sub is tense, and Baldwin makes an interesting hero. Sean Connery plays the Soviet sub commander, Marko Ramius, and Sam Neill is his XO. One reason Ramius wants to get the sub near the U.S. is that the Red October was constructed with a silent propulsion system, which the Americans are keen on getting a look at. “The Hunt for Red October” is a keeper, so reserve four bags and rig for silent running. Also for your consideration… We’ve just passed Father’s Day, and I couldn’t resist mentioning that a film from one of my own father’s favorite actors, John Wayne, has recently been released on Blu-ray. “Hondo” is the film, a western about an Army dispatch rider, Hondo Lane, who finds out that a woman (Geraldine Page) and her son are living in a homestead dangerously close to Apaches. “Hondo” is typical Wayne, but Page raises the bar as his love interest. If you like oaters, it’s worth a look. Television lovers will rejoice that season eight of Larry David’s “Curb Your Enthusiasm” is now available for rent on DVD, as is the first season of last summer’s “Falling Skies,” the Spielberg-produced thriller about the aftermath of an alien invasion on Earth and a resistance movement determined to take Earth back. With Noah Wylie and Will Patton. DVD rental giant Redbox has released its top five DVD rentals for the week, and they are, in ascending order, at number five: “Tyler Perry’s Good Deeds,” with Tyler Perry and Gabrielle Union; at number four, “Man on a Ledge,” with Sam Worthington and Elizabeth Banks; at number three, “Chronicle,” the sci-fi thriller with Dane Dehaan and Alex Russell; at number two, “The Grey,” with Liam Neeson trying to lead a crashed oil-rig crew to safety, co-starring Dermot Mulroney; and at number one, “Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance,” with Nic Cage. That’s all she wrote for this week. Enjoy the solstice, and remember that we’re really in the summer once we pass June 20. All this other stuff is hearsay. And summer will last until the third week in September, but no one wants to think that far ahead. See you in two.

– just one of many tricks up the sleeve of a veteran shore band that is about to reach its 30th year of bringing the bright island vibes of the Caribbean to islands off the coast of New Jersey. For a band with “no discipline,” the local heroes of reggae roots rock sure seem to have their act together, as was evident by the packed house within the hotel’s “Beach Club” bar soon after the band began playing. Vocalist “King Jaguar” is actually Carlisle Fletcher, 35, and one of more than 60 musicians who have made their way into the No Discipline lineup since the band formed in 1983. It now wields between 200 and 300 songs as weapons ready to “attack” crowds with at any time. Fletcher and bassist Chris Joshwa, 38, are the two dreadlocked Rasta of the group, playing alongside drummer Craig Redmond, 40, Mike Bazaz, 53, and his brother Al Bazaz, 58, who is the band’s founder. Mike joined Al about a year after the band was formed, at which time they played their first summer on LBI, with regular gigs at Rick’s American Café in Barnegat Light. “It’s yin and yang,” Mike said of Al. “I always say, ‘You weren’t going to get anywhere with this’ and that I came in and revitalized the band. He jokes that he’s going to get me back for that.” The current lineup has been together seven years, leading to a consistently smooth and unyielding groove that flowed non-stop during each of the band’s three sets that night. The constancy of the genre allows for the band to mix in original tunes that often comprise half of their set. “We’ve been lucky because we can mix in the original songs with the cover songs,” said Mike. “If you don’t play what the people want to hear, you can play showcases in the city, but if you want to really get work, you have to play music the people like.” Continued on Page 40, Sec. 2

SHOWOFF: Melvin Vaniman dipped the Akron’s fin nose several times before missed signal.

I

n Atlantic City in the predawn hours of June 1, 1912, Melvin Vaniman, a well-known adventurer and photographer, was busily preparing his revamped airship Akron, the first to be constructed by Goodyear, for its maiden flight. His last attempt, during the fall of 1911, had ended with the airship nose down in the shallow waters of Grassy Bay near Brigantine. Because of a series of postponements caused by the weather and mechanical problems, Vaniman had decided there would be no preflight announcement. As the sun rose, volunteers walked the 258-foot-long Akron out of its massive shed, located on the south side of Absecon Inlet, and attached the lifeboat to her underside. The boat had saved the crew of the airship America when it failed in its attempt to be the first to fly across the Atlantic in October 1910. According to the New York Tribune of June 2, “Melvin Vaniman and his men had worked secretly and feverishly all last night to get the great ship in shape for flight. They were in readiness by sun-up, but decided to wait until the wind was more favorable. At 6:45 o’clock, when hardly any of Atlantic City’s summer guests had risen from their beds, the Akron was ushered from her shed. “When all was snug and taut, Melvin Vaniman took his place in the pilot house as helmsman.” The New York Times reported, “With Vaniman were his brother, Calvin Vaniman, Fred Almas, George Bourrillion, assistant navigator; Walter Guest, mechanic, and Ralph Upson, one of the constructors of the ship. A number of people were out in spite of the early hour, and they stood in awed silence when the big balloon gracefully floated into the air.” The New York Sun had gotten word of the upcoming flight and had a reporter there to witness the historic moment. “When the flight started there were not more than 300 spectators about. A crowd of persons living in the neighborhood turned out quickly, following the members of the Fire and Police departments. When released the Akron went up to a 500 foot altitude and headed almost due north with only her rear propellers working. “There was just a breath of air stirring from the west. Conditions were as near perfect as could be, although the breeze freshened somewhat later. As the long balloon skyrocketed upward the silence of the crowd changed to wild enthusiasm.” The Sun reporter watched. “The dirigible started its manoeuvres over Absecon Inlet. Whistles blew and sirens shrieked from vessels in the neighborhood, and throughout the resort word passed that something was doing. Spectators lined the shore and housetops soon after. The ship worked perfectly as Vaniman waved goodby. “Every move was visible from the aviation field. Mrs. Vaniman climbed out on the roof of her cottage across the street from the balloon shed and followed the flight through a pair of field glasses.”

The flight was even covered in the Honolulu Evening Herald. “He had scarcely soared aloft when the news that he had flown was flashed along the beach and thousands poured out of the hotels to jam the boardwalk and beach. There was a slight breeze blowing but this did not appear to affect the evolutions of the Akron. For half an hour the thousands of spectators saw Vaniman circle over the city and the meadows.” Now, along with The Sun reporter, the boardwalk was crowded with vacationers who watched as Vaniman put on a show. “He swooped a mile out over the water, and seemed to have not the least difficulty in directing the airship’s course. The crowd shouted back as he put the dirigible through its paces. The aeronaut several times dipped the nose of the ‘fin,’ which extends out under the shell, into the smooth water, and again he lowered the vessel until the lifeboat was trailing in the water. “He sent the balloon along with the prow of the boat below dashing huge waves to either side at a tremendous pace. Next, Vaniman turned up the bay following out the tributary inlets. He carried this ‘stunt’ a mile in from shore.” Then, according to The Times, a disaster struck. “Vaniman sailed to the line of the breakers and then turned and came shoreward. He dipped and turned with the greatest ease. He hit up a high rate of speed and found the balloon easy to guide and to handle. He sailed off toward Pleasantville and Brigantine. When the wind freshened he instructed Calvin to throw out a guide rope to keep the Akron on an even keel, and a line with a hundred pound weight attached was thrown out. Calvin misunderstood another signal and started the reversible propellers in the wrong direction. There was a crashing noise that carried clear across the water and the Akron dived downward and struck the water. “The launch, which had been following ran underneath and the men grabbed the lines and held the airship safe until Vaniman could clear away the wreckage and get things in shape again. Then the propellers were started going, but the ragged edges of the splintered blades hindered the flight.” The summer visitors and locals of the Jersey shore got to witness a real show. The Evening Times reported, “Vaniman had difficulty in controlling the Akron, but after casting off from the motor boat he arose to an altitude of five hundred feet again, where he stopped his engines. “Calvin Vaniman then climbed out along the slender propeller shaft and adjusted the propeller, which had been damaged by contact with the hose. He was out on the shaft for about twenty minutes, and thousands held their breath until he returned safely to his station, and then a mighty cheer went up from thousands of spectators.” Continued on Page 41, Sec. 2

Set List Snippet Continued from Page 38, Sec. 2 Playing originals has allowed for gigs the band otherwise may have never seen, like the time a 10-man incarnation with a full-blown horn section opened for Bruce Springsteen outside Giants Stadium in 2006. Originally inspired by the rise of Bob Marley’s music, the band remains almost all-reggae, with touches of ska, calypso and hip-hop thrown in at times. The only element they take from rock ’n’ roll is being loud. Other influences include Peter Tosh, Jimmy Cliff, Buju Banton, Steel Pulse, Jacob Miller, Inner Circle and Dennis Brown to name a few. “We just love playing (reggae). It reaches people; it’s a universal thing,” Al said. “It just works with the heart, not against it.” The bright major keys of songs combined with the slight psychedelia of delay pedal guitar effects seemed to keep permanent smiles on the faces in the crowd. A Rickenbacker guitar – played by Mike – is always nice to see and hear.

The drums and bass, however, as Fletcher and Joshwa explained, are the heart and soul of reggae and the reason why many a foot kept-a-moving throughout the band’s three sets. “It’s drums and bass driven,” said Fletcher. “The beat is opposite the beat of your heart… and opposites attract,” he said, laughing. That being said, it’s less about the songs that are played, which at times may be up to 50 percent original tunes. “We mix it up – original, cover, original, cover; sometimes they don’t know the difference.” “Sometimes we don’t know the difference,” Mike joked. Victoria Czarnik, 21, of Ship Bottom had no idea No Discipline was taking the helm at the Surf City Hotel stage but was excited to see them. Despite being new to the bar scene, she had seen the band previously at a regular outdoor show the band puts on at Sunset Park in Harvey Cedars. “They have a really ‘chill’ sound and are just really cool guys,” said Czarnik. “They’ll come

“Stir It Up” – Bob Marley “Red Red Wine” – UB40 “Lethal Weapon” – Original “Here Comes the Hot Stepper” – Ini Kamoze “Welcome to Jam Rock” – Damien Marley “Rough and Tough” – Original “Leaving on a Jet Plane” – John Denver and dance with you and are just really fun. I love them.” The band looks forward to an upcoming show at Sunset Park again this year, as long as it does not end as one of the band’s more memorable LBI shows did there about 15 years ago. “It was like Armageddon,” Al said. “We finished the show and everyone was so ‘up,’ and they started shooting the fireworks that started heading into the crowd because of the wind. It blew a firework into the box of fireworks, and it just started blowing up. Then the police were like,

“Murder She Wrote” – Chaka Demus & Pliers “Angel” - Shaggy “Destruction” - Original “Could You Be Loved” – Bob Marley “Sexy Lady” – Mond Shkodra “Jump in the Line (Shake, Senora)” – Lord Kitchener ‘Everybody leave!’ And there was a mass traffic jam and an ambulance couldn’t get through. At least a half dozen people were injured.” Despite the local celebrity status they have earned on the music scene, the members of No Discipline maintain day jobs, except for “starving artist” Mike. Al teaches music in an elementary school, Joshwa is an allocator, Fletcher is a computer programmer and Redmond also teaches. For their upcoming 30th anniversary in 2013, No Discipline plans on releasing a new original album. It will be the 12th album for an original band that – like many traditional reggae bands – has had a strong message behind its music, whether one of pure celebration or pointing out political strife. “We’re about ‘one love,’” said Al. For Rastafarians Fletcher and Joshwa, the music becomes a gospel that must be spread. The religion is a break-off sect of Christianity with origins in Ethiopia spreading internationally, including to their homeland of Jamaica. “That’s what drives us: to push forward the gospel,” Fletcher said. “It’s worldwide music. It’s a unification of cultures, of humanity, of life. It’s the celebration; it’s the ‘upliftment’ from the dark.” “People just have a good time,” said Mike. “We just try to be very real with people, whereas sometimes bands are a little more like actors or not approachable.” * michaelmolinaro@thesandpaper.net

He crawled back from his unstable position and started the engine again. The ship responded and her course was laid toward shore.” Back on shore, Vaniman played down the problems. “‘She is in splendid shape,’ said Vaniman, ‘and I am strongly tempted to start right out. But the weather conditions will be more favorable later in the season.” Vaniman began to plan another test flight before the attempted transatlantic crossing. One more show for Atlantic City.

Continued from Page 33, Sec. 2 her bearing news that a circus, then touring New Hampshire, suddenly needed a trapeze artist. Ostroff remembers her response – “You mean I could do the trapeze for a living?!” Once in the circus – “I started in 1986, my husband in 1978” – Ostroff couldn’t imagine doing anything else. Indeed, only once since has she missed a season, when she took five months off for the birth of her daughter. “It’s not a job, it’s a way of life,” she said. Ostroff, who in jeans and a sweatshirt could easily be mistaken for a suburban housewife visiting a supermarket instead of a trapeze artist (“I look a little different than in makeup and costume”), is on her second stint with Kelly Miller, her first having been from 1990 to 1994. Switching circuses is common in the industry, because they all want to change acts every few years. Some of her career highlights include touring Japan, working a no-travel-required gig in Atlantic City and, most of all, appearing in the 2011 film “Water for Elephants,” in which she performed her trademark high-in-the-air spin from the trapeze supported by only her teeth. Ladies and Gentlemen, Children of All Ages It was easy to see, while sitting through last Wednesday’s performance, why the circus life is so luring. There really is nothing else like a circus! Simply entering the big top is a journey to another world. It looks like a circus, pretty dark upon arrival, the spotlights not yet shining, the circus’s five tigers catching a few zzz’s in a caged off performance area set in Kelly Miller’s one ring while the crowd builds. You can’t help but think they are sure acting like common household cats until two of them tangle a bit, roaring in each other’s face, prompting their young trainer, Ryan Holder, to move quickly to separate them, and causing one man in the bleachers to remark, “Damn, I don’t know if I would want to do that

a group of trained dogs of all sizes, leaping, therefore, through hoops of all heights. Still, the circus’s three elephants, Lisa, Becky and Tracy, were the crowd favorite. The girls could walk on their hind legs almost as nimbly as the tigers, and when they were told by their trainer that it was nap time, well, talk about an instant “lights out.” (A quick aside: this reporter received e-mails from several PETA supporters after prewriting the Kelly Miller appearance in Eagleswood. Their biggest complaint was that the animals are confined in non-air conditioned trucks in their travel between gigs. Well, the average distance between towns, called “the jump,” on a Kelly Miller tour is only 50 miles – the circus was off on Thursday to Lakehurst.) The Kelly Miller Circus, founded in 1938, is no Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus. There are, after all, only three elephants; there are no flying moves from one trapeze to another. On the other hand, tickets for Wednesday’s performance were a mere $15 for an adult ($10 in advance) and just $7 for kids. And a ringside seat could be had for just two bucks more. Considering that the Ringling Bros. charge as much as $100 for a “circus celebrity” seat, this was quite the bargain. And ringside with the Kelly Miller Circus is truly ringside – the elephants performed just inches away from the folks in the front row. So, the prices for the Kelly Miller Circus are family friendly. And the families showed up on Wednesday – this reporter and his date were seemingly the only people not leading a gaggle of wide-eyed kids. As Ostroff put it, “We’re great for a community. We allow families a night out together, we raise money for local groups, we do good things for the towns we visit.” Hey, it’s all in the family. ✧

Circus

for a living!” “It smells like a circus,” one woman said. The sweat of large animals is somewhat evident but overcome by the redolence of the ground, still damp from the morning’s rains, the moisture trapped by the waterproof vinyl of the big top. It tastes like a circus. Where else, besides a ballgame, are you going to eat unshelled peanuts? Is there any popcorn such as in a circus, so cardboard-like dry and tasteless it makes movie theater fare seem good? Did you really just spend four bucks for a pink serving of cotton candy that looks like it belongs on the head of a troll doll? It sounds like a circus, especially when the sonorous voice of ringmaster John Moss III welcomes you in the name of John Ringling North II (to bring up the family theme once again, note all of the Roman numerals) and strikes up the band. Kelly Miller has all of the acts one expects from a circus. The clowns, Steve (Copeland) and Ryan (Combs) are experienced, having both worked for “The Greatest Show on Earth,” and energetic and upbeat. The aerialist acts, with the “Delara Duo” displaying “strength and beauty” in Act I and Ostroff showing “grace and daring” after the intermission, are done without a safety net. There is a more-than-competent-if-not-perfect juggler, Raul Olivares (noticeably missing were any sharp instruments), and a true master of the rola bola (a board placed on a cylindrical roller, or in this case, boards placed over layer after layer of rollers), Fridman Torales. The Fusco Family, last on the bill, made a dramatic, drum-driven entrance but then, well, it is tough to say what they did in their “gaucho act” – it seemed to be centered around spinning a bola. True, the family’s leader did spin it at fantastic speeds, but, well, that’s about all he did. Then again, this reporter hasn’t spun a bola before; maybe it is harder than it looked. The true stars of the show were the animals. Holder could get his tigers to hop forwards and backwards on their hind legs or get them to lay down quietly, side by side, forming a living tiger-skin rug. Meanwhile Mike Rice had all sorts of critters running around and jumping about, including camels and a zebra. There was

German-born Composer Follows Opportunity to the States

Barnegat Jazz Pianist in Search of Area Venues M ichael Engesser has been taking meticulous care of his new baby – a baby grand piano, that is, sitting in the living room of his Barnegat Township home in the Ocean Acres section. It is where he works on his own compositions and practices tunes by his favorite artists. The 25-year-old Engesser recently performed at the Barnegat branch of the Ocean County Library and is looking for more concert venues. Possibilities could be the Stafford Township Arts Center, Ocean County College or Mancini Hall, located in the Ocean County Library main branch in Toms River. Engesser’s favorite works include Dave Brubeck’s “Blue Rondo a la Turk,” Chick Corea’s “500 Miles High” and the standard “Body and Soul,” recorded by Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald and Frank Sinatra among many others. He said that when he was growing up in Munich, his parents loved jazz and often played records. “I think the first musician I listened to was Jelly Roll Morton,” he said. “I didn’t get interested in what was being played on the radio stations. I loved listening to jazz.” Once Engesser got the feel of the keyboards as a young child, he was hooked. He continued his passion for jazz as a youngster and attended a high school where music and the arts were emphasized. “In Germany, we have high schools of various branches,” he

said. “For example, we have some where students study math, another one that is more humanistic and one that specializes in music and the arts. The only thing I didn’t like was drawing; I wasn’t too good at that.” He later served as a nurse in the German army, working with disabled people. Engesser said what brought him to the United States in 2007 was an opportunity to study at the prestigious Berklee College of Music in Boston. “The biggest shock was that I was 20 years old and I couldn’t go in someplace and have a beer,” he said with a laugh. He graduated from Berklee with degrees in film scoring and contemporary writing and production. The pianist composes music for films and video games, and also gives individual piano lessons on an upright piano located in another room. It was at Berklee where he met his girlfriend, Ship Bottom native Halley Feaster, who is a cellist. “Maybe one day we’ll perform a concert together,” said Engesser, who has provided background music for diners at The Gables in Beach Haven. “But right now, I’m hoping to fi nd more places to perform.” He said the main difference between playing jazz and classical music is that jazz allows you “to compose on the fly.” “In classical works, the composer has each note played by each instrument,” he said. “It is very

Jazz is a lot more free form.” The musician said he has not gotten caught up in American musical fads, such as “American Idol” and other similarly formatted shows. “We have programs like that in

Germany, too,” he said. “I guess that is popular all over the world, but to me, it is more like musical fast food.” He said he has also gotten to enjoy living in Southern Ocean County, although he could do without the summer heat waves. “That weather reminded me of

the time when we used to vacation during the summer in Italy,” Engesser said. “It was very hot and humid there.” For more information on the concert, call the branch at 609698-3331. —Eric Englund ericenglund@thesandpaper.net

Wendy Mae Chambers Stages Performance for 64 Toy Pianos ‘Kun’ Inspired by Hexagrams of I Ching

W

endy Mae Chambers of Harvey Cedars is a composer with a particular interest in multiples – large-scale performances by many musicians playing the same instrument. This week, she will lead 64 toy piano players in a performance of “Kun” at Piers 15 and 16 at the South Street Seaport in New York City. She has also organized and produced concerts for 30 harps, 77 trombones and 10 grand pianos. Originally from Westfield and New York, she moved to Harvey Cedars in 1997. In the past she has put on concerts at the Long Beach Island Foundation of the Arts and Sciences in Loveladies. Chambers’ desire to “really explore everything thoroughly about an instrument” led her down the somewhat unconventional road to multiplicity, which achieves a bigger, more powerful sound with “strength in numbers” rather than amplification. One of the challenges of producing such a performance is fi nding musicians who specialize in one particular instrument and are willing and available to volunteer. In this case all her musicians are from the New York City area, so she has been commuting for rehearsals. She has always been fascinated by the toy piano, she said. Her love of the instrument made her the fi rst person to play an entire recital on the toy piano in 1990. The toy piano has 37 keys, with a fi nger reach fairly similar to that of a full-size piano, she explained, although it doesn’t have the dynamic range or a sustain pedal, and it’s much quieter. Bearing similarity to a harpsichord, inside the toy piano a hammer hits a rod instead

SMALL PACKAGES: Wendy Mae Chambers has a fondness for the toy piano, which has 37 keys and bears similarities to a harpsichord. She was the first to play a full toy piano recital, in 1990. of a string, so it’s more percussive. The musician plays the toy piano seated on the floor. Chambers was inspired by the ar tist Christo, known for his big-impact installations in large geographic and community settings. She described the “Kun” performance as a “live sound installation,” explaining that the show at the Seaport would have the toy pianos and their players spaced out in separate stations –38 solos, 11 duets and 1 quartet – throughout Pier 15, which is multi-level, and also Pier 16, where the hope was to draw a lot of tourist traffic. The concert would run

continuously for four hours from 4:30 to 8:30 p.m., with each of the 50 stations playing a six-minute composition. All the separate pieces, even as they stand alone, are linked and interrelated. While Chambers organized and produced the show, she will also be playing in it, as No. 48. The same piece was performed in 2009 in Vizcaya Museum and Gardens in Miami, Fla. “Kun” borrows concepts from the ancient Chinese classic text I Ching, based on 64 hexagrams. Chambers, recognizing a structural correlation between the I Ching and musical

harmony, devised a music system based on the I Ching and named her composition Kun, after the second hexagram, which represents Mother Earth, or yin. (The fi rst is the heavens or Father Sky, also the yang.) At the end of the concert, she said, about 20 pianos would play a tribute to John Cage, in honor of his centennial year. Cage composed the fi rst piece ever written for toy piano in 1948. To learn more, visit 64toypianos.com. — Victoria Lassonde victorialassonde@thesandpaper.net

sk the average young music listener today about jug band music, and you’re bound to get a quizzical look. But this American folk music genre that has been entertaining audiences for decades will be on center stage at the Long Beach Island branch of the Ocean County Library in Surf City beginning Wednesday, June 27, when Catherine Sebastian opens a photo display featuring jug band musicians in performance. A reception for her will be held that evening from 7 to 9. Her knowledge of jug band music is very understandable. She is the longtime wife of John Sebastian, who was a jug band musician before he founded the Lovin’ Spoonful. From 1965 to 1967, his distinctive mellow voice could be heard on the band’s seven top 10 hits, “Do You Believe in Magic,” “You Didn’t Have to Be So Nice,” “Daydream,” “Summer in the City,” “Rain on the Roof,” “Did You Have to Make Up Our Mind” and “Darling Be Home Soon.” The band, which made numerous appearances on “The Ed Sullivan Show,” also recorded a song called “Jug Band Music.” While it was not released as a single, it also got considerable airplay in the band’s heyday.

In 2000, the Lovin’ Spoonful was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Besides the Spoonful, Sebastian was also well-known for his 1976 hit “Welcome Back,” the theme for the television sitcom “Welcome Back Kotter,” which introduced TV audiences to John Travolta. Sebastian will be highlighted in the exhibit, which will run through July. A special attraction includes the screening of “Chasin’ Gus’ Ghost,” on Saturday, July 14, at 7 p.m. The film is a documentary on jug band music, featuring footage of John Sebastian performing with various musicians. He and the film’s producer/ director, Todd Kwait, will be on hand to speak about the film and answer questions. Registration for the screening begins on Saturday, June 30. Seating is limited, and reservations may be made by calling the branch at 609-494-2480 or logging on to theoceancountylibrary.org. Catherine Sebastian said the term “jug band music” originated from the fact that in its early days in the 1920s and still today, some of the instruments were often made out of household objects such as jugs, washboards and washtubs, to go along with guitars, banjos and other acoustic instruments.

BACK TO HIS ROOTS: John Sebastian (right) performs with David Grisman. This image, captured by his wife, is one of many that will be on display, from her collection through the years. “After going to a few shows, I was hooked on jug band music,” she said. “The photographs in this show are a result of years of shooting the bands and special guests for publicity photos, album covers and the family archives.” In the early 1960s, her husband was part of the Greenwich Village folk music scene with a group known as Even Dozen Jug Band. She said in the late 1980s, he returned to his roots by forming his own jug band, appearing with such prominent musicians as Fritz Richmond and David Grisman, among others. He also has hosted a folk music program on PBS. She met Sebastian in Los Angeles in 1970 when she was working as a photographer and

he was establishing a solo career after he left the Spoonful in 1968. They married in 1971. “We really hit it off right away,” she said. “I certainly was familiar with his music with the Lovin’ Spoonful, but he opened me to a whole new experience with the jug band sound. It’s a sound that is uniquely American.” Library branch manager Linda Feaster added, “We’re especially excited about this display and program. I think a lot of the younger people might not even know who John Sebastian is and what an important part he played in folk and rock music.” — Eric Englund ericenglund@thesandpaper.net

Catching a ‘Rising Star’ At Surflight

A

bout 10 or 15 years ago people started noticing that there were just as many, if not more, visitors to Long Beach Island each summer who were from New York or North Jersey instead of the traditional Philadelphia-area guests. Now the entertainment seems to be following suit. The next two shows in the Catch a Rising Star Comedy/Concert Series at Beach Haven’s Surflight Theatre have a decidedly New York/North Jersey bent. On Monday, June 25 The Bronx Wanderers will appear starting at 8 p.m. The band consists of five musicians – Yo’ Vinny, Vinny “The Kid,” Nicky “Stix,” Jimmy Fracassi and John Tutino. Sound New York/North Jersey enough for you? The Bronx Wanderers are doo-wop rock stylists. As actor (and sometimes featured singer with the band) Danny Aiello says, “Being a teenager on an avenue in the Bronx back in the ‘50s and early ‘60s was unlike being a kid anywhere else in the universe. There was a magic in the air that blended in with the sweet smell of Mama’s cooking. It was the liberating sound of doo-wop and rock and roll. This music had heart, soul, purity and a sound … oh the sound … tunes that made you want to dance … harmonies that made you high … lyrics that once in a while even made you cry.” We’re talking songs such as “That’s My Desire,” which interestingly enough was a hit for Frankie Lane way back in 1947 but became a doo-wop favorite a decade later. And 1959’s “Sleep Walk,’ recorded by Santo & Johnny in 1959. There’s “In My Room,” which the Beach Boys recorded in 1963. How about “Tears on My Pillow,” the first million-seller for Little Anthony and the Imperials in 1958? Finally, there’s the Bronx Wanderer’s signature piece, a Four Seasons medley. Ah, the Bronx in the late ‘50s, early ‘60s. As Aiello put it, “We didn’t have roller-skating waitresses and malt shops, but if you want to talk about egg creams and a big slice of Sicilian from an authentic Italian pizzeria, you found the right neighborhood. And there was magic in the air … we heard it from AM radios on the dashboard, we harmonized with it under the streetlamps.” So, it is easy to get a feeling of what Monday night will be like at Surflight. But Wednesday evening, June 27, well, that is a little more difficult to explain. According to Catch a Rising Star’s co-partner Suzy Yengo, “Shut Up, Sit Down and Eat!” which will also kick off at 8 p.m., is “America’s first plomedy.” “A plomody,” she said, “is a new theatrical event that blends the wit of stand-up comedy and the intensity of a one-man show presented in an innovative play format presented by professional comedians. Witness what happens when a therapist fails to show up for a group therapy session. Waiting in the therapy room are four impatient Italian Americans who decide to take their issues into their own hands and invent a new type of therapy – Italian

COLLECT THEM ALL: Get a map for the self-guided tour and visit as many studios as you like. (Clockwise from top left) See Matt Burton’s sculpture at the m.t. burton gallery, Mary Tantillo’s stained glass, or visit Cathleen Engelsen’s studio-home, where she’ll hang art on a clothesline. By PAT JOHNSON t’s the seventh year for the LBI Open Studio Tour, when artists open their studios or galleries on LBI for perusal by the public. The mission of the tour is to support and promote local artists, to strengthen a growing cultural community on the Island and to provide the public with a greater understanding of the creative process. This year 15 artists from Barnegat Light to Beach Haven are participating. Come see the artists at home in their lairs, demonstrating their craft and offering work for sale on this self-guided, free tour. Studios and galleries will be open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday, June 23 and 24. Maps are available at the Southern Ocean Chamber of Commerce Visitors Center in Ship Bottom, the Long Beach Island Foundation of the Arts and Sciences in Loveladies, at www.lbiartists.com and at each studio or participating gallery. Look for signs along Long Beach Boulevard and visit one, two or make it a marathon. Here is a rundown of all you may see: On the north end of the Island in Barnegat Light, three artists hang out their shingles. Drop into Connie Pinkowski’s studio to learn how she manipulates pigment and wax to produce encaustic paintings inspired by her own photography. Pinkowski is also a textile artist.

Lee Wagner has been working in pan pastels, a slow process that results in luminous pastel paintings. Wagner’s pastels and large acrylic paintings of flowers and seascapes will be displayed. This is textile artist Ann Roantree’s f irst LBI Open Studio Tour. Her multi-layered textiles are inspired by the rhythms of classical and jazz music, the art of the mid-20th century Bauhaus artists and unknown weavers of antiquity. She will demonstrate weaving on a portable loom. Every year, artist Linda Ramsay invites her Rutgers alumni artist friends to her studio in High Bar Harbor to paint the bay with her from her back yard. View her many acrylic paintings of local icons and watch these artists have a ball as they paint plein air. Susan Hennelly will also be painting plein air at her studio in High Bar Harbor but in the medium of watercolor. Hennelly also works in collage and exhibits throughout the tri-state area. In Loveladies, drop into the LBI Foundation of the Arts and Sciences and tour the clay studio. A Crafts Gallery showcases artisan works in jewelry, fabric and clay. All good, sustainable events must have a strong founder, and glass artist Mary Tantillo was the swizzle stick that stirred the studio tour into existence six years ago. This year, for the first time, Tantillo will open

her private studio in Harvey Cedars, nicknamed the “Fusing Station,” from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday and 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Sunday. Her commercial studio and shop, SwellColors Glass Studio and Art Gallery in Haven Beach, is also on the tour. There her stained glass works that can enhance any window and her Beach Baby beads are on display. Bead “flame working” will be demonstrated. Sarah Armstrong will be demonstrating her oil painting techniques outside her Harvey Cedars studio. Her textured, graphic style is meant to communicate subjects such as shells and roosters in a simple but pleasing, decorative way. On the Boulevard in Harvey Cedars, find Roberta Giannone’s studio. Giannone is well known for her rustic renditions of the shore; she is a master at capturing weathered cedar-shake cottages and wooden boats. Her oeuvre includes many views of the Barnegat Lighthouse. There are four stops mid-island in Surf City. First find Cathleen Engelsen’s historic home, where she will display her historic Island paintings and offer a clothesline of small originals and prints of LBI and Jersey Shore landmarks. On Sunday, Engelsen will add music when Marc Halikas plays jazz and rock guitar in the studio. Matt Burton’s studio is at his gallery, the m.t. burton gallery on the Boulevard. Many of Burton’s large

clay sculptures find their inspiration in the detritus (broken shells and critters) that line the ocean shore. Visit his sculpture garden and view the current exhibit of work by 19th Street Clay Studio members. Another gallery owner, James Steen of Ocean Gallery, exhibits his large oils inspired by the expansive horizons and changing light found on LBI. Steen will display his finished works and works in progress, and will also be painting on site. Photographer Connie Beggs wants to capture the essence of the LBI vacation on film so others, perhaps not so photography-abled, can take home a visual memory. Meet the photographer at Art & Décor in Surf City. The afore-mentioned Mary Tantillo’s SwellColors is located in Haven Beach. Just a few blocks down in Beach Haven Terrace, find Dick Jeffries’ studio. Jeffries carves and paints whimsical sculptures and totems out of found tree logs and fabricates recycled art from found objects. In Beach Haven, watercolor artist Pat Morgan opens her studio to share her joy in working with the medium. Morgan’s fluid paintings find their subjects in flowers, children and sun-washed landscapes. That’s a lot of art to sample, but the beauty of this self-guided tour is it can be taken as a mapped-out, determined, artistic scavenger hunt or Continued on Page 41, Sec. 2
