Thursday, June 28, at 6:00 pm & Saturday, June 30, at 9:15 pm 100 Years of Paramount Pictures POOTIE TANG USA, 2001, Louis C.K. Lambasted upon release as everything from a “train wreck” (Roger Ebert) to “audience abuse” (The Onion A.V. Club), this dumb, tasteless movie (derived from a sketch on The Chris Rock Show) is now considered an alt-comedy classic. A young black man rises from a small town outside Gar...

The Hooten Hallers These guys are right the hell on, playing just balls to the plasterboard blues rock. Smoke and whiskey vocals mingle with gruff falsetto harmonies, with bits of real wailing guitar intercepted. Like Jack White met up with George Thorogood, got all loaded up on blow and tried to sober up by jamming booze into their guts. It's a free blowing, go screw yourself, fest of well, hooting and hollering. They put a record out fairly recently. You should go get it and like the song says, “just leave me alone.” Village Bicycle Now, ol' Axelrod has always been of the persuasion...
“I was just in the crowd with everyone else,” Mark Walker, owner of North Carolina-based Grimtale Records, said of the first time he heard White Buffalo Woman. “They seemed to be a diamond in the rough.” He’s not the first, and likely won’t be the last, to describe the gritty, heart-peeling sounds of White Buffalo Woman in such flattering terms. The “diamond” that makes White Buffalo Woman — a quartet originally from Minerva — is their blues-soaked sound that formed underground like a precious stone “in Joe’s dad’s funeral home’s basement.” From that house of ...

My band will remind you of: Devo, Mindless Self Indulgence, and all the awkward things you did in high school that you hope nobody remembers How did this band come about? I spent a lot of time as a singer/songwriter/keyboard player in various projects around Canton/Massillon, but I'm very mercurial when it comes to my goals and desires as an artist. Some nights, I would wear make-up so thick even d...

REDHOT features the bold canvases of James Johnson, a first-generation Abstract Expressionist who found a home in Northeast Ohio in the 1950s. The authenticity of his work is derived from his involvement with the New York School, followed by working with the San Francisco Bay artists. Born in New York City in 1925, Johnson was raised in a broken home that led him to lie about his age in order to join the Navy during World War II. When Johnson returned to New York in 1949, he found himself submerged in an artistic culture of Post War abstraction advocated by Hans Hoffman, established around Gr...
