  • QUINCY SYMPHONY CHORUS PROGRAM NOTES British Invasion ~ March 9, 2019 Dr
    QUINCY SYMPHONY CHORUS PROGRAM NOTES British Invasion ~ March 9, 2019 Dr. Carol Mathieson Andrew Lloyd Webber relaunched musical theatre in the 1960’s in ways that welcomed electronic technology and rock music without allowing ephemeral fads to highjack well-crafted composition. And audiences responded, with younger aficionados swelling the general flock to the theatres. Tonight’s medley follows chronologically from earliest efforts with Tim Rice to turn Jesus Christ, Superstar— a scripture story recast in rock, produced as a concept album with basic plot, all the songs, and minimal dialog—into a stage show, opening in London’s West End. It was a mega-hit. Soon after came Evita about the Perón dictatorship in Argentina. Rice did not feel comfortable remolding established writing into lyrics, so for Cats, Lloyd Webber went directly to T.S. Eliot’s poetry. Song and Dance is a short musical play with lyrics by Don Black, paired with a short ballet with music Lloyd Webber wrote for his cellist brother Julien as variations on a Paganini caprice. However, Phantom of the Opera, with Charles Hart lyrics, was back to high drama. Phantom smashed attendance records in both London and New York, running for decades. Tonight’s medley opens and closes with songs from that iconic show. Nineteenth-century English musical theatre consisted of cheerful song and dance revues or badly translated, risqué French burlesques until Gilbert and Sullivan brought satirical, silly Savoy Operas to a family-friendly stage. QSC sings highlights from the first and the final masterpieces of these saviors of both the English and American musical stage.

  • ABSTRACT MY LIFE AS a PINBALL by Jennifer Davis My Life As A
    ABSTRACT MY LIFE AS A PINBALL By Jennifer Davis My Life as a Pinball is a coming-of-age, first-person narrative about a female protagonist, a thirteen-year-old girl named Alex who bounces back and forth between parents—her mother’s house in Ohio and her father’s house in Florida. The novella is set mostly in Florida and the plot revolves around a developing girl who is searching for agape. Alex’s parents don’t know how to be nurturing, as she bounces through her narrative. Her ideas about sexual love and parental love are skewed by her experience with sexual abuse. But this fourteen-year-old also clings to a dream of an ideal sexual love that is selfless. In her desire to find what she needs both for healthy sexual development, she finds ways to cope with the abuse by using her imagination and becoming, as she calls herself, “a steely marble.” Alex explains her life in her breezy teen’s lingo.

Pinball Arcade is my personal favorite -- it runs a huge selection of classic tables reproduced down to the finest detail, and the physics are incredibly accurate and satisfying. Not so satisfying, however is the lack of tactile feedback when tapping the screen to trigger the flippers or sliding your finger down the screen to pull and release the plunger. So how about using real arcade buttons and a spring loaded plunger instead? Originally intending to build my own from scratch, I ran across an old accessory called the Duo Pinball controller, which is available online for less than $9 new! (it retailed for $60 when launched in 2012). It was designed for a different pinball game, Pinball HD Collection, and isn't compatible with the one I prefer, but it didn't take too much effort to transplant a new brain in it and make it work! This guide will show you how to mod your own controller, or use these techniques to build your own from scratch.

  • Penn Jillette Helps Bronson Band Create Vegas Magic
    LAS VEGAS SUN Review: Penn Jillette helps Bronson band create Vegas magic Foreigner’s Domenick Allen also takes stage for show at Green Valley Ranch Mark Damon Penn Jillette performs The Beatles’ “Come Together” with the Lon Bronson All-Star Band at Green Valley Ranch on Thursday, Jan. 29, 2009. By Mark Whittington (contact) Fri, Jan 30, 2009 (11:51 a.m.) Now this is Vegas. “I’m a magician and I’m a juggler, so I’m going to sing for you,” says Penn Jillette, launching into a rambling explanation of how this song was written as the campaign theme for Timothy Leary’s bid for California governor, aborted when Leary ended up in jail. “Try not to think too hard about the first two words of the song when you think about who wrote it,” Jillette says as he screams out “Shoot me” and the Lon Bronson All-Star Band drops into a horn-drenched arrangement of “Come Together.” At the end of the song, Jillette put down the broken mike stand and pointed to the band: “This is Vegas.” Jillette wasn’t the only guest who appeared on stage for the Bronson band’s Thursday night visit to the Ovation Lounge at Green Valley Ranch. Domenick Allen, the former Foreigner vocalist, ripped apart “Let the Good Times Roll.” Not that the All-Star Band needs any help. The 13-piece unit is made up of some of the best players in Las Vegas plus a go-go dancer. (It’s a sin to try to single out one musician from this talented group, but Garrett Hypes just smokes on baritone sax.) Was it just me or did the band sound particularly tight Thursday night? They blew through two nonstop hours of great arrangements including "Try a Little Tenderness,” “River Deep, Mountain High,” “Gimme Shelter,” “You’re Still a Young Man,” “Fire,” “With a Little Help from My Friends,” “You Can Leave Your Hat On” and a wonderful Who medley of “Tommy Overture-Pinball Wizard-5:15-Baba O’Riley.” They asked that musical question “What Is Hip?” The Lon Bronson All-Star Band playing a free show for a packed house of locals.
