World War I art exhibit open

War looks different, before you’re in it.

In 1914, as Europe lumbered optimistically to battle, a proxy fight was joined in the pages of popular media. Combatant nations, seeking cultural as well as military dominance, deployed visual propaganda to rally support and attack enemies. Yet as the death toll mounted, a generation of artists, many of whom served in uniform, sought new artistic languages to convey the grief and horror they had witnessed.

This fall, the Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museum at Washington University in St. Louis will present “World War I: War of Images, Images of War.” Drawn primarily from the Getty Research Institute in Los Angeles, where it debuted in fall 2014, the exhibition features more than 150 objects that together chart a chronological path from exuberant outbreak through years of grinding

combat and into the long, unsettled aftermath.

The exhibit will be on display through Jan. 4.

Included are paintings, prints, drawings, photographs, illustrated journals, correspondence from the front and other materials by artists such as Max Beckmann, Umberto Boccioni, Georges Braque, Otto Dix, Natalia Goncharova, George Grosz, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Käthe Kollwitz, Fernand Léger and Kazimir Malevich.

War of Images The exhibition opens with “War of Images,” which explores how different nations sought to elevate their own cultural symbols while denigrating the supposed national traits — German barbarism, British imperialism, French decadence, Russian cowardice — of opponents.

French artist Jean Cocteau, whose health prevented enlistment but who later drove a Red Cross ambulance, co-founded the journal Le Mot (“The Word”) with designer Paul Iribe. The cover of their second issue depicts Kaiser Wilhelm II as the German hero Lohengrin, but wittily replaces the knight’s legendary swan boat with a red, grasping crayfish.

Conversely, the German magazine Simplicissimus, a longtime government critic, now voiced patriotic support. A striking cover from October 1914 — by Thomas Theodor Heine, who’d once been jailed for caricaturing the Kaiser — shows a colonial Englishman, pith helmet ajar, clutching precariously at a blood-soaked globe.

Other works play on visual codes such as the Russian bear and the French Marianne. A series of rarely seen images by avant-garde artist Kazimir Malevich and poet Vladimir Mayakovsky, modeled on popular Russian prints known as lubki, depict idealized peasants in traditional costume fearlessly routing enemy troops.

Images of War But for witnesses on the ground, arguments about cultural superiority quickly paled. “Images of War,” the exhibition’s second section, collects artworks, letters, diaries and other first-person accounts that demonstrate the yawning gap between rhetoric and

and photographs of jubilant French crowds. Yet even for Allies, victory was pyrrhic. Fernand Léger, who barely survived mustard gas, fills his illustrations for Blaise Cendrars’ “J’ai tué” (“I Have Killed”) (1918) with rifles, helmets and fractured war matériel.

The Germans Max Beckmann, Otto Dix and George Grosz spent years coming to terms with their experiences, with Dix in particular returning obsessively to the subject.

In addition to several prints, the exhibition features recordings, made in 1963, in which Dix discusses his time as a machine-gunner on the Western front.

But the costs of combat are not paid by soldiers alone. Käthe Kollwitz’s son, Peter, was a student in Berlin when fighting began.

He quickly enlisted and died in Flanders — the first of his regiment to fall. A decade later, the grieving mother completed “Seven Woodcuts about the War” (1924), a searing testament to the anguish of those left behind. As Kollwitz would write to one of Peter’s comrades, himself later killed at Verdun: “There is in our lives a wound which will never heal. Nor should it.”

the reality of battle.

Symbolist Henry de Groux, who fled Belgium just ahead of German invasion, captures the air of menace with his dark and swirling “Grenade Thrower,” from the series “Le visage de la victoire” (1914-16).

In “The Trench” (1915-16), Swiss-born artist Félix Vallotton depicts a line of French soldiers, only helmets and bayonets visible, as the earth explodes behind them.

A never-before-exhibited war diary by futurist Umberto Boccioni, who died in 1916, details a tumultuous period on the Italian front. The expressionist Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, who was deeply scarred by his time in the German Army — and whom, decades later, the Nazi’s would brand a “degenerate artist” — drew the Apocalypse on the backs of cigarette boxes.

Also included are rare examples of handmade “trench art,” with which soldiers memorialized their units and the battles they fought.

These range from painted helmets and an engraved canteen to small objects made from shell casings.

Aftermath The final section, “Aftermath,” opens with celebrations of armistice

"Sleeping With Other People"

Poor romantic comedies. Even our criticisms of them have grown stale.

"They're not as good as they used to be," we moan, yearning for some purer time when we didn't know the time-tested beats, the inevitable outcomes, and the dynamics seemed more attuned to How We Date Now. Even the character types have started to become one big blur of clichés.

How refreshing, then, that "Sleeping With Other People" gives the form a solid adrenaline boost by managing to both operate within the comforting constraints of "When Harry Met Sally's..." can men and women be friends premise, and still be its own unique, modern creation. Writer-director Leslye Headland, as a follow up to the bawdy girls' night out film "Bachelorette," accomplishes this by getting the sex out of the way first, and then making it off limits.

Headland knows that the litmus test is not the theoretical happy ending, but the characters — and Jake (Jason Sudeikis) and Lainey (Alison Brie) prove to be some fascinating specimens. We meet them in college, where they lose their virginity to each other in a harried one night stand on a New York rooftop and then again a decade or so later in a meeting for sex addicts.

Neither are actually sex addicts, at least in the clinical sense.

But Lainey can't seem to stop cheating on her boyfriends with one old flame (Adam Scott), and Jake cheats as a way out of relationships he's too scared to end with a normal breakup.

RATED: R by the Motion Picture Association of America for "strong sexual content, language including sexual references, and some drug use."

RUNNING TIME: 100 minutes.

ASSOCIATED PRESS RANING: Three stars out of four.

"Time Out of Mind"

"Spare change? Any spare change?" The man holding the cup in the street looks, from a distance, like just some guy in a wool cap, formless parka and rumpled pants.

Only this is Richard Gere, and if you looked a little closer, you'd recognize those silver-haired good looks and that chiseled face. And those people on the streets in "Time Out of Mind" are actual New Yorkers who often walked by the movie star, oblivious, as director Oren Moverman was shooting, proving — if it needed to be proven — that we don't really look at homeless people among us, even if we're handing them a few quarters.

But Gere's character, George, also clearly has no desire to be looked at. He seems to wish he could be invisible.

And in this almost documentary-style portrait of a homeless man — clearly a labor of love for Gere, who's also a producer here — the actor succeeds in moving us deeply, precisely because he doesn't call attention to himself in an "actory" way. And yet, the cumulative effect is heartbreaking.

Although its plot is sparse, one of the things "Time Out of Mind" does best is to convey the sense of stunned befuddlement George feels at his predicament. WE may know that he's a homeless man, but it takes George nearly three-quarters of the movie to actually say, "I'm homeless," and even then, it's more an incredulous question than a statement. It's also one of the clearest things George ever says. The man is living in a permanent haze of confusion.

George wasn't always this way. Slowly, we learn he was once employed, a husband, and a father. But tragedy struck, and eventually he lost his job, his home, his family (he's estranged from his one daughter). When we meet him, he's trying to catch some shuteye in the bathtub of a friend. (The desperate effort to get a few hours of good sleep — when one doesn't own a bed — is

one of the film's most depressing motifs.)

RATING: not rated RUNNING TIME: 120 minutes.

ASSOCIATED PRESS RANKING: Three stars out of four.

"Everest"

"Everest" is not an easy movie to watch. No entertainment that contains such tragedy should be.

The truly breathtaking spectacle and technical achievements can make you feel like you too are on a vertical slope at 29,000 feet. But this awe-inspiring movie is also one that's laced with dread, little triumph and even less perspective as you wait, with a knotted stomach, for the disasters to manifest.

"Everest" recounts the events of, and leading up to, May 10, 1996, when a series of controversial decisions and a heap of bad luck led to the deaths of 8 climbers — then the deadliest day in Everest history.

It is not, however, based on the most famous account, journalist Jon Krakauer's book "Into Thin Air." It's an amalgamation of stories, reports and never-before-heard tapes from the day, focused mostly though on Adventure Consultants lead Rob Hall (Jason Clarke), and Texan climber Beck Weathers (Josh Brolin).

Krakauer is a character in "Everest," ("House of Cards'" Michael Kelly), but a peripheral, underdeveloped one. His presence as a journalist covering the expedition frames the growing tension between customer service and safety inherent in the commercialization of adventure. The script also uses him as a "why climb" observer. He can bluntly ask what the audience is thinking, and he does at one point. The scene goes nowhere, though. The other characters crack wise or choose silence, as though the desire to climb Everest is so unexplainable. "Because it's there," they say.

So when a handful of climbers do make it to the peak, it's harder to feel their euphoria. All we can see is looming death.

That's part of the problem of "Everest." All the elements are there, but the emotions never land — even with the inclusion of previously private conversation between Rob Hall and his pregnant wife Jan (Keira Knightley) as his plight atop the mountain becomes direr.

The large ensemble cast is packed with recognizable faces — Clarke, Brolin, John Hawkes, Jake Gyllenhaal, Emily Watson, Knightley, Sam Worthington, and on and on. It can be distracting, but perhaps it is the only way to truly orient an audience with who's who. There's not a lot of time to get to know the individuals before their faces are obscured with ski masks and goggles and they're reduced to, and dependent on, our ability to recall the color of their snowsuits.

"Black Mass"

Shakespeare had his tortured Hamlet, his ambitious Macbeth, his malevolent Iago, his warring Montagues and Capulets.

But what would the Bard have done with the tale of James "Whitey" Bulger, and all the supporting players around him?

There was Whitey himself, at first a minor criminal who became one of the most feared crime bosses in history, ruling his turf for two decades and evading capture for nearly two more. There was his brother, Billy, who grew up in the same home in the "Southie" section of Boston but became one of the state's most powerful politicians. There were the feuding Boston mob and Bulger's Winter Hill gang. Then the FBI agent whose efforts to gain Bulger's cooperation led to his own undoing.

And the FBI itself, which ended up protecting Bulger for years and facilitating his murderous rise.

Octoboer 1, 2015

Yes, Shakespeare would have had a field day. And so does Hollywood, namely director Scott Cooper and a top-flight ensemble led by Johnny Depp in a performance that reminds us, after a string of uninspiring movies, why he's one of our most compelling actors. Yes, Depp is excellent. But the star attraction here? That's the stunning story itself.

"Black Mass," with a taut and effective screenplay by Mark Mallouk and Jez Butterworth, is based on the book by Boston Globe reporters Dick Lehr and Gerard O'Neil (they make a brief appearance here). It begins with police interviews of Bulger's aging henchmen, then quickly flashes back to 1975.

We meet Bulger as he's asserting control of the Winter Hill gang, which is engaged in a bitter turf war with the Angiulo family.

Luckily for Bulger, a childhood friend has arrived back in town — John Connolly, an ambitious FBI agent. Connolly (a terrific Joel Edgerton — and this Aussie nails the Boston accent, too) figures the way to make headway quickly is to bring his old pal into the fold as an informant. He first goes to Billy, a state senator (a fine Benedict Cumberbatch), who coldly rebuffs him. Then he goes directly to Jimmy. "You know what I do to rats, John?" Bulger says at first. Connolly replies: "It ain't rattin,' Jimmy. It's an alliance." When Jimmy agrees, he rationalizes it thusly: "They protect us, and we do whatever the (expletive) we want."

RATED: R by the Motion Picture Association of America for "brutal violence, language throughout, some sexual references and brief drug use."

"The Intern"

The world of Nancy Meyers sure is beautiful.

But her studied production design and dreamy interiors have become such a focal point, that they've almost eclipsed her storytelling. It marginalizes what she does, and how she has, from "The Parent Trap" to "It's Complicated," created her own lovely and implausible cottage industry of movies that are, for the most part, exceedingly pleasant to watch.

She tells stories about divorce, affairs, and later life loves, using wit and humor that is somehow blue and sassy, but also innocent. Meyers is one of the more retro writer-directors working today.

"The Intern," her first film in six years, is a curious case, melding together those modern retro sensibilities in a way that even further distances her work from reality. This is not a love story, though. It's a workplace tale about a smiley, unflappable 70-year-old retiree Ben (Robert De Niro) who goes to intern for the 30-something CEO of an online retail startup.

With only the most polite issues peppering the plot, it's less a study of generational conflict and more of a series of loosely connected events about a guardian angel sent out of retirement to tell Anne Hathaway that she really can have it all.

Ben's adjustment to working with all these kids might be the hook, but Jules Ostin (Hathaway) is the centerpiece and heart of the movie. In the past year and a half, she has built an insanely successful clothing business from the ground up and is now juggling a kid, her relationship with her stay-at-home husband, and a board of directors who want to replace her with a more seasoned CEO. She has her quirks. but Jules is neither the prototypical cutesy, clumsy comedy heroine nor the passionless executive who just needs to loosen up. In fact, Jules isn't a type at all.

Hathaway plays her as serious, wise, playful, and insecure.

Every time you think she might descend into caricature, Hathaway pulls back and grounds Jules.

RATED: PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for "some suggestive content and brief strong language."

Connolly replies: "It ain't rattin,' Jimmy.

It's an alliance." When Jimmy agrees, he rationalizes it thusly: "They protect us, and we do whatever the (expletive) we want."

Which is, basically, what happens, as Connolly's plan spirals into a catastrophe for the FBI. Jimmy provides marginal information at best; meanwhile, he wreaks havoc with impunity. Here's where it's absolutely chilling to watch Depp. With bad teeth and a head of dramatically receding hair, the actor somewhat resembles Jack Nicholson in "The Departed" but deftly avoids caricature as he grows more sinister with every murder.

These include putting a bullet into the head of an associate who addresses him inappropriately; strangling a disloyal henchman with chains, and choking to death the young stepdaughter (Juno Temple)

of a colleague (her last gasps are a sound you won't soon forget.) He becomes so menacing, you truly fear for the one person seemingly unafraid to talk back to him: the mother of his young child (an affecting, but underused Dakota Johnson).

Then there's a frightening dinner table scene where Bulger asks for a recipe.

Without revealing too much, let's just say that his sinister, is-he-kidding-or-isn't-he demeanor immediately recalls Joe Pesci in "Goodfellas" in that "I'm funny, how?" scene. Depp's Jimmy isn't manic like Pesci's Tommy, but he's mercurial, and he's scary.

The supporting cast also includes Kevin Bacon as a skeptical FBI boss, Peter Sarsgaard as a jittery gang associate, and an excellent Julianne Nicholson as Connolly's wife.

If you haven't read the detailed news accounts of Bulger's years on the run and eventual capture, now's not the time — in other words, see the movie first. And marvel again at how real life really does provide the best material.

Tomlin is "Grandma's" saving grace

By ROBERT GRUBAUGH Of The Edge With its scant running time, “Grandma” can be undervalued with just a quick look. Like its characters, though, it’s more than just a slip of a thing and made of sturdier stuff than the humor on its surface would lead you to believe. I found it to be full of contemporary themes that one day not too long ago would have felt progressive and edgy, but are now commonplace and almost taken for granted. There is no political correctness anymore unless you’re trying to sell something or hold a public office. Art continues to suffer for art’s sake, but not by the artists that are making it. An unabashed Lily

Tomlin is a proper role model for an indie drama in 2015, I would say.

When Sage (Julia Garner) shows up on her grandmother’s doorstep, my first impression was that she must surely be made of porcelain. Given her perma-ringed frosted hair and milky skin, there was really no way to quickly discern if this woman-child is fifteen or twenty-five. I think that’s part of the appeal in her casting, too.

She’s in trouble, the kind pregnant teens without many options often find themselves and she’s turned to her grandma, the famous poetess and anti-lifestyle guru Elle Reid (Tomlin) for some advice. Not quite hippie, not quite anti-establishment, Elle is an aging, unhappy monster going through her own issues. Her fame

never quite led to her fortune and her personal life is in shambles. Sage’s appearance comes just on the heels of a fallout-laden breakup between Elle and her much younger girlfriend (Judy Greer), someone that’s made to feel like a replacement for Sage’s other grandma, the recently-deceased and sorely missed Violet. Hurtful words sting you right through the screen as we see the two women fall apart in opposing ways.

The bulk of the film is a road trip through Elle’s past to attempt to cash in a slew of I.O.U.s from her rogues gallery of old friends. Her goal is to help Sage fund the abortion she’s scheduled despite zero input from the jerk at school that knocked her up in the first place (“Paper Towns’”

Nat Wolff). He’s quickly shown the business end of a hockey stick and left to wallow with whatever damaged pride he has left. Elle knows the owner of a quaint and trendy café (the late Elizabeth Pena) and the proprietress of a tattoo parlor (Emmy nominee Laverne Cox, of “Orange is the New Black”), but they’re both broke. She does something unthinkable and goes to the last man from her heterosexual days (Sam Elliot) and begs him for help, too. Their encounter is at first coy and a little misty, like two old friends recounting a long separation, but it turns heated when his anguish turns into conservative hate-speak. I like that actor more every time I see him.

Down to their last option, Sage and

Octoboer 1, 2015

Grandma Elle aim her antique Chevy toward the last bastion of resource that they both are afraid of: Elle’s daughter and Sage’s mother (Marcia Gay Harden), a shrewish businesswoman who is equal parts ashamed and affronted by their tandem pitch. Turning this character into a sympathetic figure by the show’s quick end is the one misstep in an otherwise fine production that relies heavily on great performances. It must’ve been a hard sell by writer/director Paul Weitz to get this picture made. It’s not going to have much broad appeal, beyond the old broad in the lead role.

“Grandma” runs 79 minutes and is rated R for language and some drug use. I give this film two stars out of four.

Religion Religion briefs Former president promotes religious cancer have started and are going well, so far. basis for women's equality Court again denies Kim Davis' bid ATLANTA (AP) — Former President Jimmy Carter says his Carter Center continues to promote women's equality with to delay marriage licenses international religious leaders.

Carter says his nonprofit has been trying to convince Christian and Muslim clergy that their Scriptures don't teach that women are subservient to men.

At a Carter Center event Tuesday evening, the former president said in the Bible and Quran "there is no allegation

by God or Allah that women are inferior in any way." He says clerics are being pointed to parts of their Scriptures that guarantee equality of treatment for women.

Carter said a recent Sunday school lesson he taught on forgiveness also applied to international diplomacy, where deep grievances often must be forgiven. But the former president called for the destruction of the Islamic State group, noting its persecution of Christians and others it disagrees with.

On a personal note, Carter says treatments for his brain

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — A federal appeals court has reiterated that embattled Kentucky clerk Kim Davis "has not demonstrated a substantial likelihood of success" in her legal bid to exempt her office from licensing same-sex marriages.

On Tuesday, the day after Davis returned to work following a stint in jail for defying a federal judge, the Sixth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals shot down another of her requests to delay issuing the licenses.

After four couples sued Davis for refusing them licenses, she filed a counter lawsuit against Gov. Steve Beshear, alleging that he improperly instructed clerks to abide by the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in June that legalized gay marriage. The appeals court rejected her request to delay that directive.

Davis, an Apostolic Christian, has one more request for reprieve pending before the appeals court.

VILLA RICA, Ga. (AP) — Officials in Georgia say a group baptism before a high school football practice violated school district policy.

The Rev. Kevin Williams, senior pastor of First Baptist Church in Villa Rica (VIL'-uh RIK'-uh), said 18 students and one coach were baptized after school, before a football practice last month.

Carroll County Assistant Superintendent Terry Jones said in a statement to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution that Villa Rica High School failed to follow district policies on groups using school facilities.

Jones said the district's investigation found that the high school principal had approved what he thought was a churchsponsored activity and that the principal was unaware that students were involved.

The baptisms drew criticism after the church posted video on the Internet of players being dunked into a tub of water.

Straight No Chaser will celebrate the album’s release with what will be their biggest headline tour to date.

“The New Old Fashioned Tour” sets off on October 16th in Las Vegas at the MGM Casino’s David Copperfield Theatre and then continues into 2016, concluding with 2 dates in Hawaii (Honolulu and Maui) to ring in the New Year (see attached itinerary).

The tour will stop at The Fox Theatre for a 7:30 p.m. show on Nov. 27.

Tickets may be purchased at at metrotix.com, by calling 314-534-1111, or in person at the Fabulous Fox Box Office.

perform over 67 shows in the US alone, as well as dates in more than 15 countries, including Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Czech Republic, Austria, Holland, Belgium, France, Switzerland, Ireland, and the United Kingdom for more than 200,000 paying fans.

Additionally, Straight No Chaser is set to take part in one of their home state of Indiana’s greatest traditions, the singing of “(Back Home Again In) Indiana” prior to the start of the annual Indianapolis 500. The group – which was founded in 1996 at Indiana University Bloomington – will perform “(Back Home Again In) Indiana” during the pre-race festivities, taking on the honor following legendary entertainer Jim Nabors’s 2014 retirement after having performed the song live 35 times since 1972. The Indianapolis 500 Pre-Race Show airs live on ABC on May 24th at 12 Noon ET (check local listings).

Straight No Chaser ’s fourth full-length release, 2013’s “Under the Influence” saw the renowned vocal group reimagining a selection of their all-time favorite songs alongside many of the superstar artists and undisputed music icons that made them famous.

Produced by Mark Kibble (a founding member of the legendary a cappella group Take 6 and one of Straight No Chaser ’s primary influences), the album included unprecedented collaborations with some of popular

music’s best and brightest – including Phil Collins, Stevie Wonder, Elton John, Dolly Parton, Rob Thomas, Seal, Sara Bareilles, and Jason Mraz – as Straight No Chaser put their distinctive and inimitable spin on songs known and loved the world over.

Long beloved for their trademark takes on Yuletide favorites, Straight No Chaser celebrated this past Christmas with a newly released version of their hit EP, “Under the Influence: Holiday Edition" featuring “Text Me Merry Christmas (Feat. Kristen Bell).” Written

by Emmy and Grammy Award-winning writers David Javerbaum (The Daily Show) and Adam Schlesinger (Fountains of Wayne), the track proved an immediate holiday hit, garnering more than 1 million individual views in the 24 hours following its YouTube premiere (www.youtube.com/watch?v=EmhfdQlOiy0). Other highlights on ““Under the Influence: Holiday Edition" include renditions of “White Christmas (Feat. Cee Lo Green),” “Merry Christmas Baby (Feat. Otis Redding),” and a timeless rendition of Paul McCartney’s classic “Wonderful Christmastime” that featured vocals by McCartney himself.

Music Tuning in The Fox to welcome Gladys Knight, the O'Jays

​Gladys Knight and the O'Jays are coming to St. Louis - together in concert, doing full headlining performances on Friday, November 13, 2015 at the Fabulous Fox Theatre.

Tickets are $150, $125, $95, $85, $75, $65, $55 and are on sale online at metrotix.com, by calling 314-534-1111, or in person at the Fabulous Fox Box Office.

The great ones endure, and Gladys Knight has long been one of the greatest. Very few singers over the last fifty years have matched her unassailable artistry. This seven-time Grammy winner has enjoyed #1 hits in Pop, Gospel, R&B and Adult Contemporary, and has triumphed in film, television and live performance.

In her first effort since 2013’s “Another Journey” – Knight’s 8th solo effort – this summer marked the release of “Where My Heart Belongs”, a new inspiration gospel album. Knight is a two-time Grammy winner in the gospel category and recently won an NAACP Image Award for “Outstanding Gospel Album.”

“Another Journey” enjoyed success from the hit “I Who Have Nothing” as well as the up tempo track “Settle,” produced by Randy Jackson, with whom she previously collaborated with on her Grammy-winning album, “At Last.” Knight also enjoyed the success of her song “You and I Ain’t Nothin’ No More” which appeared over the end credits of the critically acclaimed Lee Daniels film "The Butler."

The O'Jays are touring history, a connection to an era and a sound that formed the soundtrack for the lives of several generations.

The O’Jays are still hitting the road with the same electrifying energy they’ve had for over 50 years.

Walter Williams and Eddie Levert first met when they were the ages of 6 and 7 respectively. As teenagers in Canton, Ohio, they formed a band originally consisting of Eddie Levert, Walter Williams, William Powell, Bobby Massey and Bill Isles.

In 1963, the band took the name "The O'Jays" in tribute to Cleveland radio disc jockey and over the years several members have changed, but the core, original lead singers Eddie Levert and Walter Williams, continue to front the group. In 1972, Gamble & Huff, a team of producers and songwriters with whom the O'Jays had been working for several years, signed the group to their

Philadelphia International label.

With this magic formula, often called The Sound of Philadelphia, The O’Jays scored the first number 1 and million sellers, “Backstabbers.” Subsequently, they succeeded with various chart topping pop and R&B singles. Including “Love Train”, “Put Your Hands Together”, “For The Love of Money”, “I Love Music”, “Darlin’ Darlin’ Baby (Sweet, Tender, Love)”, “Livin’ For The Weekend” and! “Use Ta Be My Girl.” This success propelled The O’Jays to be the first black vocal group to perform in arenas throughout America during the 70s and 80s.

The O'Jays were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2005.They were inducted into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 2005 and honored with BET's Life Time Achievement Award in 2009. In 2013, they were inducted into The Official R&B Music Hall of Fame.

Today, the songs of The O’Jays are still being used in many movies commercials and TV shows. “For The Love of Money “continues to be the theme song for “The Apprentice.”

McDonald to appear at The Fox

Michael McDonald will bring his This Christmas, An Evening of Holiday & Hits Tour to the Fabulous Fox Theatre Saturday, November 28 at 8:00 p.m. The night will include some of his hits as well as holiday favorites that will surely put you in the spirit.

Tickets are $125, $95, $80, $65, $55, $45, $35 and are available online at metrotix.com, by calling 314-534-1111, or in person at the Fabulous Fox Box Office.

Two notes. That’s all it takes to recognize the voice of Michael McDonald. Distinctive and soulful, it is one of the most yearningly emotive instruments of our times. To this add formidable songwriting and keyboard skills, and you have an artist who has been a singular musical presence for four decades.

From ‘70s-era Doobie Brothers classics such as “What A Fool Believes” and solo hits like “I Keep Forgettin’” through two highlyacclaimed Motown albums, genre-busting guest spots and innovative concept shows, the five-time Grammy Award winning McDonald is both timeless and ever-evolving.

Beyond his music, McDonald has long been an active humanitarian. He has lent his talents and energies to many causes and benefits, including MusiCares, the National Council of Alcoholism and Drug Abuse, the 7UP Grammy Signature Schools Program and was part of a star-studded lineup at Kokua For Japan, a concert that raised $1.6 million for

tsunami relief.

After moving from his hometown of St. Louis to Los Angeles in the early ‘70s, McDonald honed his talent as a session musician and singer before being invited to join Steely Dan. Over the course of four classic albums, from Katy Lied to Gaucho, McDonald became an integral part of the group’s sound, singing background vocals on FM staples like “Black Friday” and “Peg.” In the mid-‘70s, McDonald joined The Doobie Brothers, helping the band redefine their funky R & B sound as a singer, keyboardist and songwriter on such Top 40 singles as “Takin’ It To The Streets,” “It Keeps You Runnin’,” “Minute By Minute” and “What A Fool Believes.”

His distinct vocal style also made him one of the world’s most sought-after session singers. Beyond his hits with The Doobies, McDonald has lent his voice to records by an A-Z of artists, including Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin, Elton John, Joni Mitchell, Vince Gill and Grizzly Bear. During the ‘80s and ‘90s, his solo career zoomed from success to success on the wings of evergreen hits like “Sweet Freedom,” “On My Own” (a duet with Patti LaBelle) and the Grammy-winning duet with James Ingram “Yah Mo B There.”

C o n t i n u i n g t o e x p l o re n e w v i s t a s , McDonald released his Grammy-nominated, platinum-selling pair of Motown albums in 2003. Then in 2005, he partnered with Hallmark for a special Christmas album, Through The Many Winters, which sold 500,000 copies in its first two weeks.

In 2008 McDonald released the acclaimed crossover album Soul Speak (which hit three different charts simultaneously), and in 2011 received an honorary doctorate from Berklee School of Music. Recently he and co- horts Donald Fagen and Boz Scaggs an 11-piece soul supergroup who tour as The Dukes Of September, released their first live DVD. McDonald continues to tour extensively as a solo artist, with symphonies, altruistic events and plans to tour this summer with Toto.

With a career that encompasses five Grammys, numerous chart successes, personal and professional accolades, as well as collaborations with some of the world’s most prominent artists, Michael McDonald remains an enduring force in popular music.

Bill Roseberry/The Edge

Baseball's Best Burger at GCS Ballpark in Sauget, a hamburger with two pieces of bacon, a slice of cheddar cheese and served on a Krispy Kreme donut for a bun.

GCS Ballpark in Sauget

By BILL ROSEBERRY Of The Edge For my latest food review I laced up my cleats, tightened my batting gloves, painted on my eye black and headed to GCS Ballpark at 2301 Grizzly Bear Blvd. in Sauget.

Joining me in the starting lineup that Sunday night were Jessica, Joe and Kelly. We went to watch the Gateway Grizzlies battle the Schaumburg Boomers in Frontier L e a g u e a c t i o n , b u t o u r re a l adversary was a perennial allstar that calls GCS Ballpark home named “Baseball's Best Burger.”

“Baseball's Best Burger” has gotten plenty of press and has some lofty stats from around the league.

It's been showcased on “Man vs.

Food” and is raved about as a true big league competitor. It mows down opponents and has weary wannabe competitors shaking in their boots.

Let's break down “Baseball's Best Burger's” arsenal: a hamburger patty, two pieces of bacon, a slice of sharp cheddar cheese and it's all-star component, a Krispy Kreme donut for a bun.

That's right, GCS Ballpark takes one of those delectable glazed donuts, cuts it in half and transforms it into a hamburger bun.

The Hall of Fame move is when they flip the donut upside down so the glazed portion is nestled against the meat and cheese, melting and melding the sweet icing right into the other ingredients for a super punch of flavor.

But “Baseball's Best Burger” had an up-and-coming talent to contend with at this Sunday night game. I've battled some veteran sandwiches and came away with a pretty respectable batting average, so I was ready for the challenge.

I was stoked, standing excitedly

24

in the on deck circle waiting to step to the grill and make my order.

When I got “Baseball's Best Burger” and sat down to face my opponent, I was a little disappointed. I thought the burger would be bigger, so I choked up and took it deep on the first pitch.

The taste was sensational, the icing melted into the hamburger, cheese and bacon for an array of gifts for my palate, but it wasn't very filling. I would categorize it as pretty small, but the price

On the Edge of the Weekend

was good, only $5 so I couldn't complain about that. I devoured it with no trouble at all.

Jessica, being the consummate teammate that she is, helped me out by sharing her order with me — “Baseball's Best Nachos.” There are a variety of nacho choices at GCS Ballpark, but baseball's best are Philly cheesesteak nachos and they are pretty good.

Tri-colored tortilla chips topped with thinly sliced, tender steak, grilled onions, peppers and

Octoboer 1, 2015

smothered in a white cheese sauce makes “Baseball's Best Nachos” another talented player from “Baseball's Best Grill.”

Jessica and I both enjoyed the nachos. I wouldn't call them the best I've ever had, but they were good.

Joe — always a middle-of-theorder power hitter when it comes to food — went with “Baseball's Best Burger” and “Baseball's Best Hot Dog.” The latter is a grilled hot dog served in a white bun, topped

with sauerkraut, grilled onions, two slices of bacon and smothered in nacho cheese. Joe gave the hot dog a thumbs up. He actually thought the hot dog was better than the burger.

Kelly took a different route and went with the Buffalo chicken nachos. Big tortilla chips blanketed with shredded Buffalo chicken, she thought they were delicious, too.

The best part of GCS Ballpark's lineup is the price. While “Baseball's Best Burger” costs just $5, the hot dog is $4.50 and the nacho selections are $6 apiece.

The price and the fun atmosphere, makes GCS Ballpark a perfect destination for families.

Kids will love this place for the interactive Kids Zone, the close-up intimacy with the baseball and the quality food.

There are other options on the menu too, like the beef brisket and pulled pork nachos, the Grizzlie rib sandwich, a grilled chicken sandwich, chilli cheese nachos and traditional baseball fare like bratwursts, hot dogs, peanuts and pretzels.

On our visit we unfortunately saw the Grizzlies lose to the Boomers, but we had a great time. The players are talented and hungry to move up the ranks, the food and drinks are good and you are right on top of the action without strangling your wallet.

Check out the Grizzlies and what they offer in the way of baseball, promotions and food at www. gatewaygrizzlies.com.

And while the Grizzlies may have lost, I won because I got to cross another adversary off my food bucket list and I got to enjoy a great evening with great company and watch the sport I love. That's not too shabby of a time when you gotta eat.
