Review of Communicating Doors
Charlotte theater fans may have thought that the best reason to drive up I-77 and catch the Davidson College production of Communicating Doors was to catch a rare whiff of director Steve Umberger’s work. But in recent years, the Theatre Department at Exit 30 has made some serious strides — and some notable incursions in…
Review of Pointer Sisters at Ovens
No, they’re not major label recording artists anymore — or even sisters in the narrow, white sense of the word — yet The Pointer Sisters proved last Friday night they still can-can deliver their ebullient, righteous brand of high-voltage pop. They and a groovy instrumental quintet took the downstage after intermission at Ovens Auditorium, elevating…

Bassnectar gets funky with electronica
It’s all about the beat. Bassnectar is ferocious dance music as thick as peanut butter, with a bottom end that’ll rattle your toenails; a sound so visceral that you feel it as much as hear it. “It’s got this kind of heavy aggressive undertone in the bass frequencies,” says Bassnectar creator Lorin Ashton. “It makes…

It was raw,…
CL previews upcoming shows
WEDNESDAY, OCT. 29 Tim Fite Brooklynite Fite has dropped much of the early-Beck hip-hop moves that made his blistering attack on consumer culture, Over the Counter Culture, so visceral.

CD Review: Ray LaMontagne’s Gossip in the Grain
The Deal: Singer/songwriter brings touring band into the studio for third album. The Good: While the song styles vary on the album a bit – from old-school soul to folk to banjo-driven front porch music, LaMontagne’s voice remains the string to hold them together. The album’s opening track, “You are the Best Thing,” is straight-outta-the-’60s…
Wait for Raised By Wolves debut over
The Raised by Wolves debut has been a long time coming anyway you look at it. For those who caught Christopher (“CT”) Stephenson in his previous band, Memphis Quick 50, the wait stretches back to that act’s 2000-2003 run and its promising self-titled release. And even if you mark RBW time beginning after that, it’s…
DVD reviews: Gangsters and Bonds galore
CASINO ROYALE (1967). While producer Albert Broccoli and star Sean Connery were enjoying incredible success with the James Bond franchise, producer Charles K. Feldman, holding the rights only to author Ian Fleming’s 007 adventure Casino Royale, decided it would be in his best interest not to make a serious Bond film to compete directly against…
DVD Review: Nashville Pussy’s Live in Hollywood
The Deal: Wham-bam-thank-you-ma’am hardcore rock ‘n’ roll. The Good: “Goddam! You play like a man!” an interviewer from Psychobabble TV gushes to Nashville Pussy’s lead guitarist Ruyter Suys. “Like a good man,” she fires back. It’s true. Suys plays as hard and shreds better than founder/hubby Blaine Cartwright. Draping her curly licks around Cartwright’s basic…
Q: Is Creative Loafing going to make a presidential endorsement?
A: I’ve got to admit, I’m not the biggest fan of political endorsements. I mean, I can’t imagine that too many voters will hold off picking a presidential candidate until they hear from their local newspaper. That being said, this is an important election, and it’s important that people and organizations be clear about which…

Henry Paulson’s power grab
It was one of the most shocking paragraphs I’ve ever read. “The chief executives of the nine largest U.S. banks trooped into a gilded conference room at the Treasury Department at 3 p.m. Monday,” The New York Times reported on Oct. 14. “To their astonishment, they were each handed a one-page document that said they…

Environmentally conscious. Craft made. Boutique. All wonky words and phrases uttered by suited-up public relations clones with one goal in mind — to sell wine.

Canvassing for Obama was a learning experience
Last week, I spent a day canvassing a Charlotte neighborhood in support of Sen. Barack Obama. Yes, cynical, critical Nsenga who dared never to canvass a neighborhood in support of anything other than finding a missing pet or child, put one foot in front of the other and “Baracked the Vote!” I must admit that…

Back in the 1800s, were there any black slave owners?
Some time ago, I heard an African-American author talk on NPR about a fact that had inspired him to write his book: During the 1800s, some slave owners in the U.S. were black. Simply put, blacks owned blacks. Afterward a historian said she’d never heard of any such phenomenon and dismissed the idea as ridiculous.…
