</div><div>Check out this awesome tribute to Trenton rockers <a href="http://www.myspace.com/honahleemusic">Honah Lee</a> done by my favorite local photog Michelle Lawlor. It was a big year for the boys: radio spots, music videos, tours and opening slots for Billie Joe Armstrong side projects. It'll probably be a bigger 2011 for Honah Lee ... so watch out!</div><div>

August Burns Red and Bring On the Horizon share in the band’s youthful exuberant, heavy melodica and religious undertones, but also show an appreciation for the tireless ground work laid down by heavy outfits from Iron Maiden to Lamb Of God, who through professionalism and drive gave often misunderstood hardline acts like TOTA a world to explore and conquer. They’ll headline the Heavy New Year Tour that crash lands at The Backstage at Championship Bar (931 Chambers St., Trenton) Sunday afternoon. Show starts at 3. An Early Ending, Deception Of A Ghost, Where The Ocean Meets The Sky, Sicker Than Most, Within Cold Blood, The World Ends With You, Transcends and Embracing Disaster round out the bill.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.unclefloyd.com/">Uncle Floyd</a></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal">Earning state treasure status through the popularity of his UHF kiddie show, “The Uncle Floyd Show,” Floyd Vivino’s warped slapsticks were laced in adult themes just packaged in a children’s show wrapper. The show, which included lip-synched performances from the likes of The Ramones, was so liked in Jersey it ended up being syndicated in 17 markets by 1980, including Philly and Boston. Its popularity reached John Lennon apparently, as David Bowie – who made tribute to Vivino on “Slip Away” - has been quoted as saying he became a fan of show through the Beatle. This dude is crazy, too. According to Internet reports, Vivino set a Guinness World Record for non-stop piano playing – tickling the ivories for 24 hours and 15 minutes back in 1999. He also claims to have the largest collection of Italian records. Floyd, who will spend his third-straight Boxing Day playing The Record Collector (358 Farnsworth Ave., Bordentown) on Sunday night, mixes up ragtime and vaudeville when headlining gigs these days. Show starts at 7. Tickets cost $15. All-ages.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span></p>

The 11-track set was recorded at Rosewood Studios in their hometown of Tyler, Texas, with producer/engineers Gary Leach and Austin Deptula (LeAnn Rimes), and mixed by Andy Freeman at Bay Area Tone in San Francisco.

(See the site for code to embed the widget elsewhere.) The album's title refers to the emotional turmoil that the DuPree sisters, who front Eisley, experienced as they crafted their third album: Sherri enduring a failed marriage; Chauntelle, a broken engagement; and Stacy, a painful breakup. The only relationship that ended on their terms was the split with Warner Bros. Records, the label that released their first two albums and several EPs. Promising to bring listeners through the band's darkest and most trying times, "The Valley" reveals their strength, patience and perseverance. On tracks like "Smarter" and "Sad," there's a musical aggression and emotional urgency that transports you to the moment they were written, laying bare the open wound of the broken heart. And the chilling album closer, "Ambulance," is an icy snapshot of the very moment of betrayal and abandonment. Elsewhere, there's a stately solace in the hopeful "Kind" and whimsical "Mr. Moon," and buoyant string arrangements decorate opener "The Valley" and "Watch It Die." As previously announced, Eisley will precede the release of "The Valley" with a U.S. tour in February, supporting Rooney on all dates. The 21-date run begins February 2 in Albuquerque and includes stops in Kansas City, the Twin Cities, Chicago, Cleveland, Boston, Washington DC, Nashville, Denver and other markets.

</strong></p><p align="center"><strong>Here's what they're people are saying:</strong></p><p align="center"><strong>Home Sweet Home - FLATFOOT 56 hit the road once again.</strong></p><p align="center">Southside Chicago’s finest Join “Wreck The Halls” w/ Street Dogs and support Authority Zero into 2011</p><p>Orange County, CA., - Dec. 9, 2010 – Rounding out what has been an unprecedented year in the band’s decade of existence, FLATFOOT 56 are gearing up to once again hit the road, adding some weight to a few of the season’s best tickets. First, Flatfoot will join with STREET DOGS for the fifth annual “Wreck The Halls” tour. The eight-night run begins Dec 8<sup>th</sup>, 2010 in Houston, TX, and includes an already sold out show in Boston, MA. Building on the momentum that accumulated throughout 2010, Flatfoot immediately charges into 2011 beginning a run of dates on January 4, 2011 with Phoenix, Arizona street punks Authority Zero. Running throughout the month of January and well into February, the quartet continues to solidify their reputation for being one of the hardest working bands in the genre.</p><p>Releasing <u>BLACK THORN</u> in the spring of 2010, the band would debut at <em>#2</em> on <em>Billboard’s </em>HeatseekersChart, in addition to achieving healthy positions on the <em>Billboard</em> Top 200, the <em>Billboard </em>Top Independent Current Albums Chart, Top Alternative Rock Chart, Top Rock Chart, Top Current Albums Chart and Top Internet Sales Charts.</p><p>Married to the road, the band spent the majority of the calendar year touring in support of their Old Shoe Records debut. Performing abroad on the international festival circuit, supporting runs with the likes of Devil’s Brigade (Matt Friedman of Rancid) and Street Dogs, in addition to a critically applauded stint on the Vans Warped Tour, FLATFOOT 56 proved triumphant in every stop along the way.</p><p>FLATFOOT 56’s broad appeal and universally inspiring themes have managed to resonate with people outside of the punk rock scope just the same. Producers of the FX Network hit <em>Sons of Anarchy</em> recently connected with FLATFOOT 56 to use not one, but six tracks from<u>BLACK THORN</u> in episodes of the latest season of the series.

And if you never heard of him, or the 1964 No. 1 smash hit “Navy Blue” he co-wrote, you’re not Billy Joel, Phil Collins, Shawn Colvin or The Violent Femmes – all of which have appeared on Murphy’s recordings. A long-time friend of Springsteen, Murphy will jam with The Boss when his tours run through Paris, where he lives with his rock ’n’ roll son, Gaspard of The Dukes. The 61-year-old Murphy hits up The Record Collector (358 Farnsworth Ave., Bordentown) tonight. Show starts at 7:30. Tickets cost $12 in advance, $15 at the door. All-ages. </div>

Well, their speedier songs sound like The Stooges wigging out at a cocaine party with Stone Temple Pilots, D Generation and Buckcherry. The slower balled-type songs – “Ma Lawd” for example - will remind you of Collective Soul, Shinedown and quieter Guns N’ Roses.

The rock legends will perform two sets: their Christmas album, “Stocking Stuffer,” in its entirety and a collection of their hits. The Fleshtones have more than 20 albums in their discography and were a major influence to bands like The Strokes. Show starts at 7:30. Tickets cost $15 in advance, $18 at the door.

Think “Fight Like a Brave”-era Chili Peppers meshed with fIREHOSE. They play Jackie Maggot and Adrock’s Super Awesome Bash Your Brains Out Party at The Backstage at Championships Bar (931 Chambers St., Trenton) Saturday afternoon. Show starts at 4. Local Demise, Keys To The Cadillac, Massively Ill, Triggered Impulse, Karma Bat, Onderrock and Horror Biz round out the bill. Tickets cost $8. All-ages. </div><div align="center"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/neurmusic">Neur </a></div><div align="left">The complexity in the instrumentation, angular melodies and erratic rhythm patterns from this upstart New Brunswick band’s untitled EP portrays a sound that’s part avant-punk, part math-core and part post-rock with influences flowing between jazz, emo-core and heavy metal. Gets sort of Dillinger Escape Plan-y in the spastic throw-down parts, but not as severe or to the extent of that band’s ferocity. It’s like Cap’n Jazz in parts, too, with Don Caballero-type builds and the atmospheric fluff of a Sunny Day Real Estate if Jeff Buckley were singing. It’s strong in the melodic department, which is a nice departure from the groups past projects - three members were in Hightstown’s Free Yon, two in A Lesser Evil. They’ll make their Mercer County debut at The Mill Hill Basement (300 S. Broad St., Trenton) Saturday night. Show starts at 10. Dan Maxwell & The Turnpike Sailors and The Sirs play, too.

But somehow this Trenton rocker did in 1971 when, as a guest of George Harrison, he laid down an LPs worth of songs in London’s Abbey Road Studios for international release on Apple. Ringo Starr even showed up to session in some drum work. Van Eaton, whose band headlines The Record Collector (358 Farnsworth Ave., Bordentown) Sunday night, remained in touch with Starr over the years – appearing in four of Starr’s solo albums all of which included recordings The Beatles’ drummer did with John, George and Paul after their breakup. A ballad, “Sweet Music” he recorded with his brother Derrek in those early Abbey Road recordings, appears on the 17-disc Apple box set alongside tracks by James Taylor and Billy Preston. Sunday’s show will be Van Easton’s first live performance in nearly 40 years. He now lives in Denver. Show starts at 7:30. Tickets cost $20.

Carvin captured her buds smooching under the mistletoe in the video for her new Christmas single “Mistletoe.” A holiday treat that showcases the country-pop-meets-coffee-house song sensibilities that’s made her songs a popular fixture in the city singer-songwriter scene, the ballad is a shimmering and seasonable delight that’ll warm you heart. It also makes for the perfect audio Christmas card and should be played over and over again as you and your lady – I’m talking to you guys – are all curled up in you’re brand new his-and-her Snuggies, sitting by the fire, sipping hot coco. Or you can get into the spirit of the holidays early by attending Carvin’s headlining gig At The Mill Hill Basement (300 S. Broad St., Trenton) Tuesday night. Show starts at 10.

Their music consists of lyrics they describe as “outlandish and shocking truths” blended into a package of dark folk and evil commercial jingles. For fans of They Might Be Giants, Pee Wee Herman and The Aquabats. The trio headline The Mill Hill Basement (300 S. Broad St., Trenton) Wednesday night. Show starts at 10.

The record, and its thrash mechanicals “hints at what other bands do,” guitarist Steven Funderbunk says without mentioning any names but winking at his ground’s morbid sound relations with roster-mates Darkest Hour and Between The Buried and Me. “It’s our own interpretation of this certain type of metal,” he said. It’s brutish and unforgiving with whirl-winning guitars - and makes for a sickly-satisfying companion to your Halloween circle-pitting. The furious five headline Championships Sports Bar and Grill (931 Chambers St., Trenton) this afternoon. Show starts at 4.

Hardly the most popular band to leap from the Berkley scene, Samiam were everything you needed from a band of that era: tight musicianship, edge, addictive melodies and passionate lyrics conjured so tightly they can be recited right back into Beebout’s face at live shows. Their later records were more hardcore based, but the songs remained harmonious and gut-wrench-ly powerful compared to the lame-ass pop punk that swarmed the Warped Tour scene after Samiam and into the millennium. They’ve just started touring again after a sad break-up in the late ’90s – landing in The Court Tavern (124 Church St., New Brunswick) tomorrow night. Show starts at 8.

Hmmm … Maybe it’s that the song got Roller Girl in the mood to test out Marky Mark’s bloated member, in that tantalizing scene from “Boogie Nights,” that brings on the erotic sweats? Man, that song’s sexy! Melanie, now 63, has become a folk icon since going gold with “Brand New Key,” with a recent press quotes out of England stating it’s “hard to disagree that Melanie has earned her place alongside Joan Baez, Judy Collins, Joni Mitchell and Marianne Faithful in the pantheon of iconic female singers.” In a rare, up-close and personal showcase for Trenton-area folk fans, Melanie is slated to headline two shows at The Record Collector (358 Farnsworth Ave., Bordentown) this Wednesday and next Thursday night. Show starts at 7:30. Tickets cost $30. All-ages. Wednesday’s show was added after tickets to next Thursday’s show nearly sold out. Only general admission spots left for the Oct. 21 show.</p>

Quite the raven-haired hottie with sass, spunk and tons of attitude for her time, Jackson was quite the looker in the early stages of television - flaunting fringe dresses, long earrings and high heels on live country music programs like “Ozank Jubilee.” She claims to be the first female to put “glamour into country music” and keeps that vintage rockabilly sound alive touring the nation these days with the likes of Bill Haley and His Comets and Jerry Lee Lewis - strolling into The Record Collector (358 Farnsworth Ave., Bordentown) Saturday night.

A bit of a hybrid between pop R&B, nu-disco and electro, “Cooler Than Me” appeals to a mixed audience that can bounce to 3OH!3 and The Black Eyed Peas, slide between the sheets next to their own Beyonce, get jiggy at a wedding reception and space-rap battle with Kid Cudi.

They’ll drop a new record on Sept 14. The vacation-begging lead single, “I’m Not Alone,” - which is a few spins away from 1,500 on their MySpace - is an anthem-worthy slice of teen melodrama the scene used to get from Sum 41 and Good Charlotte. There will be no emo-screaming allowed when the gang headlines The Mill Hill Basement (300 S. Broad St., Trenton) tomorrow night, and that’s promising. Show starts at 7. Stay opens. Tickets cost $10.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.myspace.com/hubcitystompers">Hub City Stompers </a></p> <p class="MsoNormal">With Travis “Rev. T Sinister” Nelson’s City Gardens upbringing and survival tactics after the flash-in-pan ska-boom of the 1990s, there isn’t much that can keep the singer away from a stage these days. The riot-rousing rank-n-filers have long been considered one of the top rudies in the state since rising from the ashes of Inspector 7’s 2001 break-up - using longevity, a style that springs from island traditions, 2Tone side-kicks, metal guitar and an Oi!-landish punk temper and middle-finger-popping position to keep the band’s drive alive and ska fans on their toes. A supportive fan base that’s swung their arms and circle-pitted with the gang when flying solo or playing alongside The Toasters and The Voodoo Glow Skulls for nearly a decade now is also in tow. But the thinking here is that that notion by too many that ska should have been dead and buried when the scene moved into the millennium, is probably the major motivation to The Stompers’ durability and everlasting shelf life. For fans of Madness, Bad Manners and Fishbone. The slap-happy skins play two sets at The Record Collector (358 Farnsworth Ave., Bordentown) tomorrow night. Show starts at 7:30.

According to their MySpace page, a rock opera remains on the back burner as the teens continue to record their first full length.

And they deliver with a brute-tallic pounce that meshes Pantera-styled thrash and the twisting guitar master stroke of Iron Maiden with the harmonious choruses of Shadows Fall. It’s “American metal,” said God Forbid’s Doc Coyle, who’s quoted as being “impressed” by the screamers EP, “Malice To Alice.” “Modern American Metal has heaviness, groove, and intensity,” he said. “(Saint Avarice) have a certain technical ability that they strive for and it's present in the music. American Metal has a little more grit to it, it’s a little more closer to the ground, a little more working class and I think that’s where (Saint Avarice) are coming from.” They break-it-down with tracks off their yet-to-be-released full-length “The Disease You Breed” at Championships Sports Bar and Grill (931 Chambers St., Trenton) Saturday night. Show starts at 9. The KMX Band, Power Theory, Sinister Realm and Betrayus play, too. Tickets cost $8. 21-plus. </p>

His work back then in Bricks Mortar was more R&B-ish new wave Doobie Brothers and psychedelic than blues, but that’s where his musical standing sits now. A music teacher at the Pennington School, Bushnell now ranks among the top blues-guitar talents in the tri-states and a legend around Trenton.

I can't remember the exact date, but there was this one time in I think 1995 when the guys were set to headline the the former Burlesque mecca, but had to move the show to the Theatre of Living Arts when there was a ceiling collapse at the aging Chinatown venue. </div><div>
</div><div>I had seen the Bosstones a couple times before that at the Troc and every time - even when that dude from The Goats poured a bus-boy tray of rain water on me when I finally squeezed my way to the stage - they rocked the house.</div><div>
</div><div>By 1997 - with the commercial success of "The Impression That I Get" and national ska-boom - it be became harder and harder to see the band play a mid-sized venue like the Trocadero. And that seemed to anger frontman Dickie Barrett a bit.</div><div>
</div><div>He hated that that show moved to the TLA. At least that was the impression that I got (no pun intended) - saying something in the effect of, "nice barriers," referring to the iron wall that separated the crowd. </div><div>
</div><div>"I miss The Trocadero. The Stone Pony. Trenton City Gardens," I remember Dickie saying.</div><div>
</div><div>The Troc at the time had no wall separating the band from the crowd and it made for landmark punk rock and ska experiences of the day when fans could and would jump on stage to dance along with the band during the ska shows and take a leap of faith back into the crowd during punk shows. Saw bands like The Voodoo Glow Skulls, The Suicide Machines, CIV, Queers, Skakin Pickle, Goldfinger and Spring Heeled Jack during those times. </div><div>
</div><div>The shows were wild, uninhibited and fun. And the interaction with the band had never been matched since venues started putting up these iron steel curtains. I blame the grunge era, the influx of jock moshers and kiddie crowd surfers. One fell on his head, sued a venue and Bosstones shows from then on never had that same sort of closeness to them.</div><div>
</div><div>I had the Bosstones' people ask Dickie about how he felt about his now return to the Troc on Monday. This is what is said.</div><div>
</div><div>"From a Bostonian to <i><a href="http://www.trentonian.com/">The Trentonian</a></i>, we honestly could not be happier to back in the area, we have fond memories of the Troc," Dickie tells On The Beat. "Please come out and see us create some new memories and hear classic Bosstones tracks."</div><div>
</div><div>See you then, Dickie - with my silver maine and achy 34-year-old body ready to head-bang and flail my arms in celebration of one more Bosstones shows at The Troc. Not like I'd have the energy to get my plump frame on the stage anyway. So you can keep your barriers in place. <span class="Apple-style-span" style=" ;font-family:arial;font-size:small;"><div class="nospacing" align="center" style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 0in; text-align: center; "><span style=" ;font-family:Georgia;font-size:11pt;color:black;">

Well, neither can these party rockers. The guys did open for Foxboro Hot Tubs at Don Hill’s in New York City in April and Honah Lee guitarist/wildman Joseph “Dim” Wolstenholme swore to <i style="mso-bidi-font-style:normal">On the Beat</i> at a recent basement show Reverend Strychnine Twitch busted into a full-blown Green Day set midway through. All part of the “Sobered, So Bored!” players’ landmark summer – which included the split “Lick It” EP release with garage-rockers The Plurals and a four-day tour with the Michigan duo starting with a stop at Asbury Lanes (209 4<sup>th</sup> Ave., Asbury Park) tonight and ending with a hometown get-down at The Mill Hill Basement (300 S. Broad St., Trenton) Sunday night. The songs on the EP have seeped into Trenton’s alt-rock folklore for more than a year now. Tim Hoh, Honah Lee’s pie-eyed singer, said the release – which shows off the band’s sticking-it-to-man convictions, appreciation for The Replacements and the ability to write an intoxicating, head-trapping rock ’n’ roll anthem modern-rock radio needs – is nothing new to local fans. It was used, he said, to initiate a takeover of badger country when touring with The Plurals this past Spring. The Plurals are cool, too. The trio tour Central Jersey quite a bit. Their sound is like a frenzied White Stripes with a gritty, sugar-pop swagger. Tonight’s 18-plus show starts at 8. The Wait and Meet/Pause opens. Tickets cost $7. Tickets to the 21-plus Mill Hill show cost $5. Bravo Utah (ex-Dead Flowers) opens. </p>

The singer – real name Jessica Poland and at the time debuting her Geffen release “Waves And the Both Of Us” – casted out some coffeehouse-pop melodies into the air that day just when the sun-beaten crowd needed a caffeine kick in. It was a nice touch – refreshing and tranquil like her songwriting style. A self-released EP, “Sideways,” hit the scene in May. Expect some of those songs when she headlines the Kat-Tunes2ya.com Presents Song Writer Circle-First Debut event at Grounds For Sculpture (18 Fairgrounds Rd., Hamilton) tomorrow night.

The tandem headlines Asbury Lanes (209 4<sup>th</sup> Ave., Asbury Lanes) tomorrow night with this record expected to be full of surprises for fans – including a large contingent of Trentonians who’ve witnessed their road-weary rock-out sessions at McGuinn’s Place and The Mill Hill Basement the last several years. No one really knows what to expect from New York’s next big thing, as The Gay Blades have become infamous for genre morphing from garage to folk to alt-pop and dance-rock. “Luckily, we don’t fit into any one scene or genre, so our fans aren’t small-minded about our sound,” said DeanWells stumping the record’s Oct. 5 release. “One of my idols, Beck, puts out records that couldn’t be more disparate from one another, but because he consistently puts out good-sounding records, people love them all.” Show starts at 8.

No one really knows what to expect from New York’s next big thing, as The Gay Blades have become infamous for genre morphing from garage to folk to alt-pop and dance-rock. “Luckily, we don’t fit into any one scene or genre, so our fans aren’t small-minded about our sound,” said DeanWells stumping the record’s Oct. 5 release. “One of my idols, Beck, puts out records that couldn’t be more disparate from one another, but because he consistently puts out good-sounding records, people love them all.” Show starts at 8.

Specifically, </span><em><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Savages</span></em><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"> is the amalgamation of the emotions behind relentless touring, the band’s hometown of NYC and the passing of Wells’ brother Ian Savage Wells.</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family:Arial;"></span> </span></div><div><span style="font-family:Arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">“This record was the next step for our band,” Wells says. “On </span><em><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Ghosts</span></em><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">, we were creating with this almost adolescent air of irreverence, but with </span><em><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Savages </span></em><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">we are just trying to be unfettered. We can't worry about what this record is supposed to be, only what we want it to be – a collection of trashy rock songs that speak as much to the music we love as it does our own personal chemistry as a band.”</span></span></div><div> </div><div><span style="font-family:Arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">The Gay Blades holed up with producer Dean Baltulonis (The Hold Steady, Lissy Trullie, Goes Cube) in his Queens, NY studio, where they experimented with fuller instrumentation and live recordings. The result is an unapologetic pop record adorned with a mosaic of luscious string arrangements, boisterous horns, gorgeous harmonies and surprising synths and programming. While </span><em><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Savages </span></em><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">is clearly more evolved than </span><em><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Ghosts</span></em><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">, Wells has faith that it will appease his fans.</span></span></div><div> </div><div><span style="font-family:Arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">“Luckily, we don't fit into any one scene or genre, so our fans aren't small-minded about our sound,” he says. “One of my idols, Beck, puts out records that couldn't be more disparate from one another, but because he consistently puts out good-sounding records, people love them all. Truthfully, though, the only thing he and I have in common is that we both look really good in a suit and can dance like a white James Brown.”</span></span></div><div> </div><div><span style="font-family:Arial;"><span class="850003923-11082010"><em><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Savages </span></em><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">is</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"> an eclectic mix of songs, which cannot be defined by any one genre, but does pay homage to artists such as the Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Bruce Springsteen, Adam Ant, Spoon, Wilco and Weezer. “Rock N' Roll (Part I),” the album’s emblematic opener, kicks off with scathing guitars and commanding drums, writhing in true Gay Blades fashion. The horn arrangements make their most prominent appearance on “Try To Understand,” a song about “the patience we need to love those who test our love the most,” Wells explains, adding, “it’s a monster of a song, and it might be my favorite on the record.”</span></span></div><div> </div><div><span style="font-family:Arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">The Gay Blades have toured throughout the US and Europe sharing stages with the likes of Cursive, MGMT, The Black Lips, Matt and Kim, Ra Ra Riot, Jack's Mannequin, Juliette Lewis and Electric Six, but with all that they’ve accomplished, the band simply wants to continue creating music that will make a mark. Armed with their compelling new album, it won’t be difficult. “When we can't identify with someone else’s lifestyle, we assume that they’re missing something intellectually and emotionally,” he reflects. “But when you assume you're the missionary, I can guarantee someone else considers you the savage.”</span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family:Arial;"></span> </span></div><div><span class="850003923-11082010"><span style="font-family:Arial;"><em><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Savages</span></em><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"> Track Listing:</span></span></span></div><div><span class="850003923-11082010"><span style="font-family:Arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">1.

Tickets for the first of his only two tri-state area appearances on the “Up and Coming Tour” sold out in just two minutes, breaking a record for the fastest-selling show in the Wachovia Center’s history.</p> <p class="MsoNormal">McCartney’s repertoire spanned decades and generations, ranging from Beatles to Wings to songs from his extensive solo career, even including songs that have never been played in the United States, such as “Ob La Di Ob La Da.” The hometown crowd was thrilled to hear that it would be the first time that song had been played in Philly.</p> <p class="MsoNormal">Fans of all ages were treated to three hours of the pop icon’s hits, including two encores. He would even invite two ecstatic fans on stage to get autographs and hugs. McCartney was personable and entertaining throughout, pausing between songs to tell stories about the writing process of some of his most famous tunes, and crack jokes about his seemingly endless guitar collection.</p> <p class="MsoNormal">“Some of you have asked why we are always swapping guitars,” McCartney quipped as he slung another new guitar around his neck. “It’s because we are showing off. You did pay for a show.” </p> <p class="MsoNormal">Highlights included a moving tribute song to former Beatle John Lennon, entitled “Here Today,” based on an imaginary conversation between McCartney and Lennon about their friendship and history together. McCartney also played former Beatle George Harrison’s hit “Something” on a ukulele, while standing in front of a large screen that showed candid photographs of the two during their time together as band mates. </p> <p class="MsoNormal">Though McCartney recently celebrated his 68<sup>th</sup> birthday in June, he hardly acts his age, impressively jumping, kicking, and holding guitars high above his head all throughout the long set. Even his voice sounded as youthful as it had on the recordings he’d made in his early twenties. </p> <p class="MsoNormal">A true showman, McCartney kept the audience singing, dancing and even laughing at every moment, treating fans to classic hits as well as his insightful and uplifting newer material. It truly was an incredible experience to see him perform live in concert, and should be considered a “must” on any Beatle fan’s to-do list.

PHILADELPHIA – Kevin Kolb better watch his back, because Public Enemy No. 1 thinks Michael Vick should be the Eagles’ No. 1.
Old school rap icon turned reality star, Flavor Flav, stumped for the convicted canine killer and Philadelphia’s back-up quarterback on Saturday night a few songs into Public Enemy’s set at The Trocadero Theatre in Philly’s Chinatown.
Never to dodge controversy, Flav – draped in a black Eagles No. 7 jersey and backwards Yankees baseball cap - received a mix of boos and cheers when flicking the corner of his Vick jersey.
“Yo! You know what?” Flav asked the male-dominated crowd of mostly thirtysomethings. “I’m wearing this because Mike Vick is my favorite player.”

Public Enemy – Flav (real name William Drayton Jr.), Chuck D and Professor Griff - was in town to celebrate the 20th anniversary since the release of their controversial album, “Fear of a Black Planet.” Backed with a full band, PE started the set with the first few songs of that classic LP, before busting out a collection of hits (including “Burn Hollywood Burn,” “Bring The Noise,” and “I Can’t Do Nuthin’ For Ya Man”) and new tracks featured on the Internet at <a href="http://www.publicenemy.com">publicenemy.com</a>.
Chuck D – wearing a Pittsburgh Pirates hat and camouflage shorts instead of the Phillies cap he sported in the infamous “Fight The Power” video – said from the stage on Saturday that Philadelphia was the first city outside of New York to give Public Enemy <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieiGTAhfIHe0oZOmwtVH_5ocdpPUJAGmY6SLDa1ApysXWj9OjbjTI72-7OAgFMtpa_MlsUAWE0MLfpiag9jq0YlocVoJabWtpwO01UKJCwrc-mkga0BUz3h1fjRJXv7CUethpo_ZGXzlw5/s1600/flavaflav1.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieiGTAhfIHe0oZOmwtVH_5ocdpPUJAGmY6SLDa1ApysXWj9OjbjTI72-7OAgFMtpa_MlsUAWE0MLfpiag9jq0YlocVoJabWtpwO01UKJCwrc-mkga0BUz3h1fjRJXv7CUethpo_ZGXzlw5/s320/flavaflav1.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5505508861874374130" /></a>any “love.” He noted the group’s arena tour with The Beastie Boys that landed in the Philadelphia Spectrum in 1987 as one of the more memorable stops, but made sure to point out that concert was not the first in the city. Public Enemy played a club date with The Ultramagnetic MCs a few months before hitting the road with the Beasties, he said.
Special guests included Philly hardcore legend School D, who flowed out two tracks – “PSK” and “Parkside 552.” Cali rap queen Yo-Yo was also in the house. She played an impromptu version of her hit, “You Can’t Play With My Yo-Yo.”
DJ Lord covered for original deejay, Terminator X, yet the crew still rolled out “Terminator X to the Edge of Panic.”

Kramer’s been appearing at a select few Garden State rock ’n’ roll expos this summer. His show tonight – his final here before heading across the pond for two shows at The Cavern in Liverpool - features Liberty DeVitto of Billy Joel’s band on drums. Show starts at 7:30.

But lets not forget how a few classically-trained ladies of the violin found their place, too, among the Nirvana’s, Pearl Jam’s and Green Day’s of the world with bands like That Dog and the Weezer off-shoot The Rentals (both times with Petra Haden stringing-it-up). It was this New Yorkers “Mother Mother,” however, which truly opened the ears of many a alt-rock fan to the school-orchestra-only violin that never found its niche in modern counter culture. Bonham, playing The Record Collector (358 Farnsworth Ave., Bordentown) Saturday night, was nominated for two Grammy’s for that song in 1997 – losing to Sheryl Crow for Best Female Performance and Beck for Best Alternative Album. She never returned to modern-rock radio as that format quickly fizzled out. But stuck to her art roots touring with The Blue Man Group, where she appeared on “America’s Got Talent” playing violin of course in a rendition of The Who’s “Baba O’Reily.” Bonham’s new record, “Masts Of Manhattan,” is a throwback to the jangle pop days of college radio, and her alt-rock covenant Julian Hatfield and Liz Phair. Show starts at 7:30. L.A.’s Bleu opens. Tickets cost $12 in advance, $15 at the door. All-ages.</span></span></p>
