Anything else? 8IJDI DBNF Which came ESVNT "OZUIJOH FMTF first? mSTU My main instruments are drums and .Z NBJO JOTUSVNFOUT BSF ESVNT BOE voice. I "play" other instruments, like WPJDF * iQMBZw PUIFS JOTUSVNFOUT MJLF bass, keyboards and guitar, but I don't CBTT LFZCPBSET BOE HVJUBS CVU * EPO U consider myself a real player of those DPOTJEFS NZTFMG B SFBM QMBZFS PG UIPTF instruments. I use them to get the sound JOTUSVNFOUT * VTF UIFN UP HFU UIF TPVOE that I want, for whatever project I'm UIBU * XBOU GPS XIBUFWFS QSPKFDU * N working on. I like to play around with th^ XPSLJOH PO * MJLF UP QMBZ BSPVOE XJUI UIF accordion too. Oh, and the kazoo, I BDDPSEJPO UPP 0I BOE UIF LB[PP * can't forget the kazoo.

DBO U GPSHFU UIF LB[PP Singing came first, because I grew 4JOHJOH DBNF mSTU CFDBVTF * HSFX up going to church, and we always VQ HPJOH UP DIVSDI BOE XF BMXBZT sang hymns in church. Then came TBOH IZNOT JO DIVSDI 5IFO DBNF piano, because we had one in my QJBOP CFDBVTF XF IBE POF JO NZ house growing up, so I would just dub IPVTF HSPXJOH VQ TP * XPVME KVTU EVC around on it. Then, when I was 15 or BSPVOE PO JU 5IFO XIFO * XBT PS 16, 1 picked up the guitar; I bought one * QJDLFE VQ UIF HVJUBS * CPVHIU POF and got serious with it. When I was 17, BOE HPU TFSJPVT XJUI JU 8IFO * XBT I decided that drums were the right * EFDJEFE UIBU ESVNT XFSF UIF SJHIU instrument for me to focus on.

JOTUSVNFOU GPS NF UP GPDVT PO Your bio says that a turning point :PVS CJP TBZT UIBU B UVSOJOH QPJOU in your musical development was JO ZPVS NVTJDBM EFWFMPQNFOU XBT when your father taught you the C XIFO ZPVS GBUIFS UBVHIU ZPV UIF $ minor pentatonic scale. What is that, NJOPS QFOUBUPOJD TDBMF 8IBU JT UIBU and why did it have such an impact BOE XIZ EJE JU IBWF TVDI BO JNQBDU on you?

PO ZPV the blues scale. My dad taught it to me UIF CMVFT TDBMF .Z EBE UBVHIU JU UP NF on the piano and everything is usually PO UIF QJBOP BOE FWFSZUIJOH JT VTVBMMZ easier, on the piano, in the key of C. So FBTJFS PO UIF QJBOP JO UIF LFZ PG $ 4P it was a kind of jumping-off point for me JU XBT B LJOE PG KVNQJOH PGG QPJOU GPS NF someone could play the blues in C and I TPNFPOF DPVME QMBZ UIF CMVFT JO $ BOE * could solo a bit.

DPVME TPMP B CJU When did you start using a looping 8IFO EJE ZPV TUBSU VTJOH B MPPQJOH station? )PX EJE ZPV HFU JOUFSFTUFE JO How did you get interested in TUBUJPO that?

UIBU I started using a looping station a little * TUBSUFE VTJOH B MPPQJOH TUBUJPO B MJUUMF over three years ago. I was doing a lot PWFS UISFF ZFBST BHP * XBT EPJOH B MPU of recording, by myself, at my house. I PG SFDPSEJOH CZ NZTFMG BU NZ IPVTF * would play all the instruments, one at a XPVME QMBZ BMM UIF JOTUSVNFOUT POF BU B time, to create songs. I wanted to play UJNF UP DSFBUF TPOHT * XBOUFE UP QMBZ live shows, so logistically, it was the only MJWF TIPXT TP MPHJTUJDBMMZ JU XBT UIF POMZ choice for me if I didn't want to hire a DIPJDF GPS NF JG * EJEO U XBOU UP IJSF B band. I considered putting together a CBOE * DPOTJEFSFE QVUUJOH UPHFUIFS B band, but it seemed like too much work CBOE CVU JU TFFNFE MJLF UPP NVDI XPSL to coordinate everything. In reality, it's UP DPPSEJOBUF FWFSZUIJOH *O SFBMJUZ JU T way more work for me to do it all myself, XBZ NPSF XPSL GPS NF UP EP JU BMM NZTFMG but it ends up being a different sound CVU JU FOET VQ CFJOH B EJGGFSFOU TPVOE and experience for the audience.

“EXTREMELY LOUD & INCREDIBLY CLOSE,” starring Thomas Horn and Tom Hanks. Critics were sharply divided on this emotional adaptation of Jonathan Safran Foer’s bestseller, following young Oskar (an impressive lead performance from newcomer Horn) as he works to unravel a mystery revolving around a key left behind by his father (Hanks, in a brief but affecting role), who died in the 9/11 attacks.

Alternately decried for sappiness and praised for its sensitivity, “Loud” is clearly a film that elicits a strong reaction, a quality that should be lauded VIDEOPORT PICKS regardless of one’s opinion of the material.

“CASABLANCA: 70TH ANNIVERSARY LIMITED COLLECTOR’S EDITION,” starring Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman. A film that needs no introduction to movie buffs, this enduring 1942 classic is Bogie at his best, scowling and pining his way through a wrenching WWII-set romantic drama. Beautifully remastered, “Casablanca” has never looked better, making this a no-brainer purchase for the cinephile in your life. Special features include several documentaries about cast and crew, and a commentary from film critic Roger Ebert. Not rated. Running time: 1:42 Suggested retail price: $64.99

“THE BODYGUARD,” starring Kevin Costner and Whitney Houston. Houston’s recent passing has renewed interest in this 1992 drama, a big hit at the time and a compelling screen pairing in the former reigning pop diva and Costner, playing a former Secret Service agent whose finds himself falling hard for the celebrity he’s supposed to be protecting. Rated R. Running time: 2:09 Suggested retail price: $19.98

NEW TO BLU-RAY

“ALVIN AND THE CHIPMUNKS: CHIPWRECKED,” starring Jason Lee and Justin Long.

Yet another hour and a half of squeaky-voiced karaoke and flatulence jokes, this time stranding Alvin and his crooning rodent brethren on a tropical island after falling off a cruise ship. This leaves ample opportunity for dance routines and “Lost” references, your enjoyment of which will depend on your tolerance for the aforementioned squeaky-voiced karaoke and flatulence jokes. Rated G. Running time: 1:27 Suggested retail price: $29.98; Blu-ray $39.99

Summer in March was an anomaly, 4VNNFS JO .BSDI XBT BO BOPNBMZ CVU XIBU B HSFBU FYDVTF UP HSBC MVODI but what a great excuse to grab lunch and eat outside.

hen it comes to mustaches, Nick Callanan thinks some deep thoughts.

“The ’stache is rooted in the soul,” says Callanan, founder of Portland’s 4-year-old mustache contest known as Stache Pag. “The whole thing is really about expression. The way a ’stache grows reflects the man who is wearing it.”

The idea for Stache Pag came out of the brains of a bunch of young men – Callanan and his friends – trying to alleviate the boredom of a long Maine winter and, perhaps not surprisingly, involved alcohol.

They decided to grow mustaches during the winter of 2008. Then they decided to have a little gettogether in a bar to see whose ’staches were best.

From there, Stache Pag has grown to an annual event that has drawn as many as 60 contestants and 360 spectators.

During the past four years, Callanan and his friends, which includes his brother Zeke, have spent a lot of time growing the event while growing their own mustaches and continuing to think deep thoughts about the mustache and its many wondrous qualities.

“My mustache makes me more approachable.

With its curled-up handlebars, it naturally looks like I’m smiling,” said Jamin Badger, 35, of Portland, who will be entering Stache Pag for the third straight year. “On a recent trip to Disney World, I caught people taking pictures of it. I didn’t mind, of course.”

FAMOUS ’STACHES IN HISTORY

SALVADOR DALI

GROUCHO MARX

YOSEMITE SAM

SAM ELLIOT

TEDDY ROOSEVELT

The eccentric Dali made some strange and beautiful art. And he had a strange and beautiful mustache.

It took many shapes over the years, including the famous thin, curledup version that became somewhat of a rage in the 1960s.

The film career of the best-known Marx brother began in the 1920s, yet he’s still instantly recognizable today.

Why? The ’stache.

The best thing about it is that anyone can emulate it with just a strip of black electrical tape.

Without his huge red mustache, this hero of Bugs Bunny cartoons dating back to the late 1940s would be a tiny speck of a man. With it, he becomes the “roughest, toughest, rootinest, tootinest hombre north, south, east and west of the Pecos,” or something like that.

This character actor gets lots of Western roles because of his bushy, horseshoe ’stache. But he also has an incredible, authoritative voice (“Coors, the banquet beer”), which would likely be nothing more than a high-pitched whine without that ’stache to give him confidence.

The 26th president (1901-09) was a symbol of manliness, toughness and the American spirit. And his mustache – full, thick and dripping with bravado – was clearly the reason why.
