See The Boss, Elvis and Madonna at Rock ’n’ Roll Photography exhibit ‘That House’ art exhibition MOUNT VERNON— Cedarhurst is celebrating the 40th Anniversary of the museum with new gallery exhibitions design to strike a chord with all age groups. One of the exhibits currently on display in the Mitchell Museum Main Gallery is entitled “Sound and Vision: Monumental Rock ‘n Roll Photography.” Organized by the Columbus Museum, the exhibition presents 40 photographs of legendary rock and roll musicians by 20 of the best photographers of the time. The photographs, ranging from Elvis to Madonna, became famous after being published in major magazines or on album covers. Cedarhurst curator Rusty Freeman said, “Sound and Vision presents an extraordinary look at the intersection between popular music and photography. To broaden the scope of the exhibition, we are featuring three collateral guitar exhibits. Collectible guitars, from the collection of Michael Sarver, including a 1962 Fender Jazz Master will be in the Main Gallery. A collection, on loan from David Lister, of autographs on guitars by musicians such as BB King and Mick Jaggar will be exhibited in

Most everyone has a memory of a house that stands out as mysterious in their mind, either now or when growing up. It could have been a house down the street, from a book, a movie, or a vision in a dream. Maybe it was abandoned, creepy, haunted, odd, or in disrepair. Most likely there was an impossible legend associated with the house.” “That House” features artists from the Carbondale area and SIU alumni from around the

In making it the biggest that period, he has selling country album in released eight singles and nearly a decade. five have reached the top The album is on pace to of the charts, including out sale Bryan’s double “That’s My Kind Of platinum 2011 effort Night,” “Drunk On You” “Tanlines & Tailgates,” and “I Don’t Want This which put him in the Night To End.” His conversation as the most “worst” song in four years, popular act today in the the infectious “Country country music industry.

which will air live from Nashville at 7 p.m. Wednesday on ABC. Brad Paisley and Carrie Bryan Underwood will serve as co-hosts. The field of Entertainer of the Year nominees includes Jason Aldean, Blake Shelton, Taylor Swift and George Strait. The inclusion of Strait, a prolific hit maker for 30 years, is largely symbolic because he is heading back to his Texas ranch after completing his current farewell tour. Any of the other three candidates are capable of winning. Shelton and Swift have won the last two years. Voters are ready for someone new. It boils down to a coin flip between Aldean and Bryan, with soaring record sales giving Bryan a slight edge. Bryan has been posturing like a champ with a guest performance on the Grand Ole Opry, singing at the finals of “America’s Got Talent”
and serving as guest host on “The View.” Advance tickets sales for a 2014 tour, sponsored by Cabelas, has been strong. The nearest announced date for Southern Illinois fans is a March 7 show is Memphis. Blake Shelton and wife Miranda Lambert have had a stranglehold on the CMA Awards for Male and Female Vocalist of the Year. They have each won the past three consecutive years. It would be hard to argue against them this year. Shelton dominated the airways with “Boys “Round Here” and Lambert matched him with “Mama’s Broken Heart.” It’s time for a changing of the guard. Gretchen Wilson came out of nowhere to win Female Vocalist of the Year in 2005 and this year the stunner will be Kasey Musgraves. It will happen because other nominees Taylor Swift, Carrie Underwood and Miranda Lambert will split the vote and allow darkhorse Musgraves to sneak in for the win.
Musgraves has come a long way since finishing in seventh place on Nashville Star in 2007. She became a social media darling in 2011 dueting with Josh Abbott on the sensational “Oh Tonight,” then blazed a new trail with new album “Same Trailer Different Park,” which included the one-two knockout punch of “Merry Go Round” and the audio addictive “Blowin’ Smoke.” It will be a big night for Bryan as he also takes home the coveted Male Vocalist of the Year award. Other nominees Eric Church, Jason Aldean and Keith Urban simply cannot match the chart success compiled by Bryan over the past 12 months. Shelton is wildly popular, thanks to “The Voice” and continued chart success, but this night belongs to Bryan. Shelton and Lambert will not get shut out on this show. Shelton will take home Album of the Year for “Boys ‘Round Here” and Lambert should capture Video of the Year for her zany characterizations in
“Mama’s Broken Heart.” The No. 1 couple of country music will also team to win Musical Event of the Year. Shelton is nominated for the award for “Boys ‘ Round Here,” which received vocal support from The Pistol Annies, a trio that includes his wife and songwriting friends Angaleena Presley and Ashley Monroe. It has definitely been a break-out year for Florida Georgia Line and they will be rewarded with a pair of trophies, including “Cruise” for Single of the Year and Duo of the Year. Kip Moore will be another new face getting in on the action as the “Beer Money” and “Hey Pretty Girl” singer takes home New Artist of the Year honors. Other winners will be: Little Big Town, Group of the Year; “Merry Go Round” by Kacey Musgraves, Song of the Year and Sam Bush, Musician of the year. VINCE HOFFARD can be

“Flatbush Four,” pals who stuck together against bullies, swiped booze and pined for the same girl. Now pushing 70, they’re reunited when Malibu Billy (Douglas) finally ties the knot. Each has a hurdle to clear before making the trek to their bachelor gathering. Sam’s wife (Joanna Gleason) gifts him a condom and suggests he (Kline) get busy, just to get his game back. Archie (Freeman) has to dodge his son (Michael Ealy) and sneak out. And Archie and Sam both have to trick Paddy (De Niro), who bears some ancient grudge against Billy. They do what people do in Vegas — play blackjack, do a little dance, fall in love with a lounge singer (Mary Steenburgen), crack jokes. Oh, and get down tonight. There are great pleasures in being in the company of seasoned pros who know how to sell a punch line. How old is your bride, Billy?” “She’s almost 32.” “I’ve got a hemorrhoid that’s almost 32.”
Or “You look good.” “You LIE good.” Freeman sings a little and dances a little. An ornery De Niro cracks wise and scowls. Kline riffs and Douglas plays the straight man with a wistful (yeah, he knows the bride’s too young) charm. And Steenburgen positively beams. After years of playing moms and straight-laced wives, she croons a few standards in the Vegas vein and holds her own with the big boys. Jon Turteltaub (“National Treasure”) captures the garish, cleavage-friendly setting, sets up the senior-citizen sight gags with skill and mostly just lets his highmileage cast score laughs and pass along tidbits of wisdom to assorted sinning youngsters in between sentimental reveries. “Last Vegas” isn’t “out there” in a “Hangover” sense. It’s comical comfort food, with actors doing the sorts of things they’ve done for decades. But even if this is the safest Vegas romp of them all, this cast never lets us forget that we’re in very good hands.
