Beer’s, Brews & Birdies! Beer DinnerBy Lori Hoffman

Review: Run-D.M.C. at BorgataSat., March 16, Atlantic CityBy Jeff Schwachter

Despite witnessing the best rap group of all-time, reunited (without its late DJ, of course) and live and putting on one of the hottest shows this writer has ever seen, noth-

ing compelled me to tweet every amazing, historic, extraordi-nary, hilarious, awesome, exhilarating, or even newsworthy thing that happened at Saturday’s Run-D.M.C. show at the Borgata in Atlantic City. I was listening to 1980s rap music by the kings of the genre, after all.

Entering to “Rock Box,” both Run and D.M.C. made the most of only their third show in a dozen years, proving they could still stand toe-to-toe with any young rapper out there these days.

The energy was palpable as Run spoke to the crowd, asking the spotlights to be turned on the audience so he could see “his old fans.” Meanwhile, D.M.C. hid in the shadows between songs and, wearing a fetching Metallica T-shirt and his trade-mark black fedora with a red feather, looked as though he’d been lifting weights for the past decade.

Crew members, friends, family members and others stood on both sides of the stage, taking in this historic show, which featured four DJs in place of Jam Master Jay, including two of his sons and DJ Ruckus. A huge black and red Run-D.M.C. flag/tapestry — including “JMJ 4EVER” on it — was hanging behind the group. Outside the venue, fans wore “JMJ RIP” shirts, vintage Adidas sweat suits and shell-tow sneakers, fuzzy Kangol hats and other ’80s hip-hop regalia.

Inside, the crowd threw Adidas sneakers on stage at one point, and D.M.C. signed as many as he could — mid-show. Rev. Run would eventually give away his black hat to a man in the front row.

The duo’s electric energy had them in vintage form, trading lines and verses like only the pair could do, spitting out classic phrases and taking advantage of the entire stage.

In one of many funny moments, Run told the crowd how he got a reluctant D.M.C. to appear in Atlantic City, but how he’s still trying to encourage him to play Madison Square Garden.

Run-D.M.C. pulled out classic after classic cut, including “You Be Illin,” “Peter Piper,” “Down with the King,” “King of Rock,” “It’s Tricky,” “Walk This Way,” “My Adidas,” “Run’s House,” “Mary Mary” among others, including some beat-box-ing by Run. “It’s been so long since I did this, it sounds weird,” he said from the stage about beat boxing, once a signature sound for the Hollis, Queens crew.

Every March the Absecon Lighthouse hosts a fun, com-ical and interactive annual fundraiser in the form of a murder mystery. Last year “Abby” played off the

popularity of the award-winning HBO series Boardwalk Empire with the drama Lighthouse Empire - The Rum Runners, and in the recent years it has hosted a gender-bending comedy called I Love a Man (?) In Uniform, a theat-rical mystery specially written for the Absecon Lighthouse. This year Abby is bringing back a well-received past perfor-mance called Lit With A Dim Bulb on Saturday, March 23. The play’s historical setting is 1909, and the plot involves a light keeper having reported seeing the Jersey Devil at the top of the lighthouse. Three light keepers race to the top in pursuit, but only two come down … why, and what do the light keepers’ wives have to do with it? To find out, join in the deadly affair and see what happens “in the dark shadows of the light” on Saturday night. The cost for this killer event is just $25 per person. Tony Boloney’s pizza along with beer, wine and soft drinks will be served starting 6:30pm, and the show starts 7pm. A tower climb is included in the cost of admission. Reservations are required, so call the lighthouse at 449-1360. All proceeds benefit the Absecon Lighthouse educational programs. Funding has been provided in part by the N.J. State Council on the Arts Department of State, and administered by Atlantic County Office of Cultural and Heritage Affairs. For more upcoming fun at the Absecon Lighthouse, check out the acweekly.com events calendar or visit abseconlighthouse.org.

ALBUM WEEKof th

ALBUM WEEKPhosphorescent

‘Muchacho’Matthew Houck has been making

music under the name Phosphorescent since 2003. His one-man indie-folk band has a mellow atmospheric sound cushioning Houck’s expressive vocals, which have drawn comparisons to Kurt Cobain, Will Oldham and Neil Young. On Phosphorescent’s sixth album, out this week, it’s evident that the 46 minutes of lo-fi music was a labor of love to create for the Athens, Georgia songwriter. Muchacho blends evocative lyrics with autumnal soundscapes, including two hymnals bookending the album, which are indeed beautiful and similar in feel to something early Dr. Dog, Fleet Foxes or Animal Collective might have done. NPR’s Web site recently featured Muchacho as a “First Listen,” streaming the album for free and — hopefully — garnering more fans and album sales for Houck, who has the magic and talent to become one of the most respected singer-songwriters and album cre-ators out there. Contemporary, yet timeless, Muchacho sounds like a brand new Spring day. Perfect timing. — Jeff Schwachter

Rekindling KY & the CurbKelsey and Kim Jackson, with help from fellow local Allen Thomas, have been drawing crowds to Atlantic City’s Kentucky Avenue with jazz, soul and R&B. By Ray Schweibert • [email protected]

see more online @

nightlife >>

A couple of years ago a noble effort by a successful New York City restau-rateur gave Atlantic City’s Kentucky

Avenue a flicker of the festive ambience it had for decades as a jazz mecca. Carl Redding grew frustrated, though, largely with what he saw as a lack of local support, and pulled out of town about a year and a half after opening.

But perhaps local support is best gar-nered by those who have lived in a particu-lar area all their lives. Kim Jackson is an A.C.-area product from birth, and her hus-band of 21 years, Kelsey, moved here from Philadelphia as a child. In December they opened their third local establishment at the Kentucky Avenue corner of Pacific Avenue that was once Redding’s — called Kelsey’s Food, Music & Spirits — and have seen a lot of success not just from serving authentic soul food in an upscale environment, but from a well-received 4-7pm Happy hour and live jazz, R&B and soul every Friday and Saturday starting 7pm.

“It’s Friday and Saturday nights right now, but after Memorial Day we’re hoping to go to four nights a week, from Thursday through Sunday,” says Kim Jackson. “It’s mostly jazz with a little bit of oldies, R&B and some neo-soul mixed in. They’re loving the live entertainment. I think that’s really going to be our draw. And it’s nice to see especially since the old Kentucky Avenue was so well known for that for so many years.”

Many of the artists are top-flight local musicians like the Eddie Morgan Trio (who perform this Friday night, March 22, and feature Morgan on trumpet, Daryl Robinson on keys and Jeff Burnside on drums), jazz vocalists Angela Burton, Jackie Greggs, Darchele Todd and Shakeera Jones, percus-sionist Tony Day and several others. The Jacksons also hired another local, Allen Thomas, as their entertainment director.

“We feature different types of groups within the same genre, and our commitment to showcasing jazz, R&B and soul brings out such an array of artistry that it just makes it a very unique and exciting environment to be in,” says Thomas. “As far as working with Kim and Kelsey and their vision, even though it’s the same [Redding’s] location, everybody acknowledges that it has such a different feel about it. And that has to do with a lot of things that have been done to enhance the ambience and bring about a quality of fine dining that rarely exists within the scope of southern food, which you generally think of as something quick or take-outish. But Kelsey has done a tremen-dous job in putting together a menu that not

only reflects the culture of southern dining, but also provides a very rich and elegant appeal to it. So with that and the combi-nation of live entertainment, we’ve seen a great buildup.”

Thomas said Kelsey’s has also been able to rely on local support as a go-to site for special events.

“Friday and Saturday nights have been big nights for us, and people have been using the site [which encompasses about 10,000 square feet] for their private par-ties,” says Thomas. “We just had about 100 customers for a birthday event for a 91-year-old mother, grandmother, matri-arch of the family — it was an extraordinary event. And having an in-house sound system allows people to come in and really cherish the acknowledgements they’re making to the people they’re celebrating … We’re just doing everything we can to appeal to the wide range of demographics that are in the greater Atlantic City area.”

That includes, says Thomas, reaching out to the famed Sigma studios in Philadelphia (check out sigmasound.com) for future acts at Kelsey’s.

“I just had a meeting with Sigma — which basically is where The Sound of Philadelphia and guys like Teddy Pendergrass, [Kenny] Gamble and [Leon] Huff originated — and by sparking a relationship with that particu-lar brand, we’re hoping to put out even more and greater entertainment that appeals to the masses.

“There are some unique things coming down the stretch,” adds Thomas. “I can’t be specific right now but trust me, you’ll start seeing quite a bit more in the way of your mainstream artist coming through and really supporting the place, and helping it to get to where it has the potential and capa-bility of going.” ■

Trump Plaza Beach Bar Not Exactly ClosingBy David J. Spatz • [email protected]

Reports of the demise of the Trump Plaza beach bar last summer weren’t greatly exaggerated. But, as it turns

out, the news wasn’t completely accurate.A bar will open on the beach in the exist-

ing footprint of the old Trump Plaza beach bar this summer. What it will be called is anyone’s guess.

Although there’s been no official announce-ment yet, here’s what we’ve pieced together:

As the summer of 2012 was winding down, Trump Entertainment Resorts announced it was closing the city’s largest beach bar per-manently. It even said guests who showed up on the final day could cart away small pieces of the floor as souvenirs.

Publicly, the casino company said it could no longer compete financially with non-union beach bars at other casinos.

“We would love to continue operating the beach bar; it’s just economics,” Trump spokesman Brian Cahill said at the time, citing the non-union operation at Revel and the Landshark Bar & Grill that will debut in late May at Resorts, which is also expected to be non-union.

But another reason Trump Entertainment Resorts was closing the beach bar — the one that they didn’t announce — was because it was keeping what turned out to be one of Atlantic City’s worst-kept secrets.

Trump Plaza was for sale. The casino com-pany wasn’t sure how quickly the property would sell, and — in the event the sale process took a while — it didn’t want to incur the estimated $1 million expense required each spring to get the beach bar up and running for the summer of 2013.

Last month, Trump Plaza and the Meruelo Group — a diverse company whose holdings include entertainment, gaming and hospital-ity properties — announced that Meruelo would purchase Trump Plaza for $20 mil-lion. The closing date was tentatively set for May 31.

And part of the sales agreement appar-ently includes a provision that the property include everything the prospective new own-ers saw when they toured the property —

and that includes the beach bar.It’s a foregone conclusion the new own-

ers will hang a new name on the property and re-brand it as it pumps tens of millions of dollars into modernizing the 30-year-old casino resort once considered the centerpiece of Atlantic City’s Boardwalk.

Meanwhile, in a follow-up to last week’s report about rocker Sammy Hagar being unable to reach an agreement to continue to hang his name on Bally’s beach bar, Caesars Entertainment said late last week that the bar would reopen this summer under its original name — Bally’s Beach Bar.

The company took exception with Hagar’s announcement on his Web site that said Hurricane Sandy had destroyed the beach

bar. Although the bar, located on the beach side of the sand dunes, did sus-tain some damage,

it was hardly destroyed and can be easily and quickly repaired.

Still no word yet whether the Atlantic Club, which is under an agreement of sale to the parent company of PokerStars, the world’s largest online gaming site, will reopen Atlantic City’s original casino beach bar.

When the property was still the Atlantic City Hilton, it paved the way for casino beach

bars about a dozen years ago by getting city permission to open, on an experimental basis, a beach bar limited to only its high-rolling casino guests. The experiment proved enough of a success that the following sum-mer, the city amended the laws and allowed public beach bars to open.

This summer, the Landshark Bar & Grill at Resorts, which is part of the $35 million Margaritaville addition to Atlantic City’s first casino, will expand the beach bar market by offering both indoor and outdoor watering holes along with other beach amenities.

Revel is also getting into the beach bar business, but with an operation that’s quite different from the others. Revel will unveil the HQ Beach Club, a daylight companion opera-tion to its very successful HQ Nightclub.

Like the nightclub, the 45,000-square-foot HQ Beach Club will offer high-profile entertainers and DJs spinning the music and creating a unique, upscale vibe at the city’s newest casino resort.

Meanwhile, Golden Nugget is expected to bring The Deck back to life for another summer of daytime and nightlife attractions. Although it doesn’t have a beach, The Deck — which sits at the entrance to the state marina — has a million-dollar view of the million-dollar fishing and cruising yachts that put in at the docks, plus a sweeping pan-oramic view of Atlantic City from the other side of the island. n

What it will be called is anyone’s guess.

Rock Around the Jersey ShoreHow South Jersey became a launching pad for Bill Haley & The Comets — and rock ‘n’ roll. By Tom Wilk • [email protected]

see more online @

waltz through time >>

The six-piece band took the stage at the HofBrau Hotel in Wildwood in the summer of 1954 and threw a fashion

changeup at the crowd.Instead of their normal stage outfits, Bill

Haley and the Comets opted for more infor-mal attire: swimsuits.

It was a way of keeping their act fresh and paying tribute to the New Jersey shore, the band’s summertime home.

With Haley on guitar and lead vocals, the Comets tore through a set of their early hits, including “Rock The Joint” and “Crazy, Man, Crazy.” That summer at the HofBrau would also mark a musical milestone for the group, their first public performance of “Rock Around The Clock,” still a year away from becoming their breakthrough hit.

“The crowd response was very good,” bass-ist Marshall Lytle said, in recalling the audi-ence reaction to the song.

Haley was a democratic bandleader, sharing the spotlight with his fellow musi-cians. Lytle and drummer Dick Boccelli each took a vocal solo, while steel guitarist Billy Williamson did a comedy routine.

Keyboardist Johnny Grande showed off his instrumental prowess.

The Comets demonstrated a knack for showmanship. Lytle turned his upright bass on its side, straddled it and continued to play. Occasionally, Lytle would allow saxo-phonist Joey D’Ambrose to hitch a ride on the bass and play a solo as Lytle pushed the instrument across the stage.

Over the course of a decade, Haley trans-formed himself from a struggling country singer to national rock ‘n’ roll star and the land between the Delaware River and the Atlantic Ocean played a key role in Haley’s path to stardom.

“South Jersey was our launching pad, our home base. That’s where we created our sound,” said Boccelli, an Ocean City resident who used the stage name of Dick Richards during his tenure with the Comets.

Born in Michigan in 1925, Haley and his family moved to Eastern Pennsylvania in the early 1930s. He crossed the Delaware and lived in Salem between 1949 and 1951 and had a radio show on WSNJ-AM in Bridgeton.

As a country musician, Haley was influ-enced by Gene Autry and Hank Williams. By the early 1950s, as commercial success was eluding him, Haley was heading in a new direction. Haley and his backing band, the Saddlemen who became the Comets, were fixtures on the South Jersey musical scene, ranging from Andy’s Log Cabin in Camden to the Shelter Haven Hotel in Stone Harbor and at the Steel Pier in Atlantic City.

The Twin Bar in Gloucester City, may have been the most important venue of Haley’s career. “Bill called the Twin Bar the birthplace of rock ’n’ roll,” said John von Hoelle, co-author with Jack Haley, the sing-

“South Jersey was our launching pad,

our home base.” er’s oldest son, of Sound and Glory, a 1990 biography of the rock ’n’ roll pioneer.

During an 18-month engagement at the tavern in the early 1950s, Haley used the bar as a musical laboratory, a place to experi-ment with his sound. He introduced a loud, amplified beat that he called “cowboy jive” on the rhythm and blues tune “Rock The Joint” that was enthusiastically received by the Twin Bar patrons.

Released as a single on the Philadelphia-based Essex label in 1952, it became Haley’s biggest seller to date. Haley never forgot the importance of “Rock The Joint.” When he recorded “Rock Around The Clock” two years later, Haley had session guitarist Danny Cedrone repeat the guitar solo from the ear-lier “Rock” for the newer one.

“Rock Around The Clock” was released in the spring of 1954 and initially sold about 75,000 copies. Like a firecracker with a delayed fuse, the song would explode on the singles charts a year later. Played over the opening credits of the 1955 film Blackboard Jungle, starring Glenn Ford and Sidney Poitier, the song would enjoy an eight-week run at No. 1 on Billboard magazine’s singles charts.

Ironically, the song led to a breakup of the original Comets lineup.

Rejected in their bid for a raise, Boccelli, Lytle and D’Ambrose left the group after performing at Hunt’s Pier in Wildwood on Labor Day 1955. Haley would replace them and enjoy more hits, most notably “See You Later, Alligator,” but would be eclipsed by such contemporaries as Elvis Presley and Chuck Berry in the remainder of the decade. His last U.S. hit would be a 1974 revival of “Rock Around The Clock,” which was used as the first theme song for the television series Happy Days.

Haley died at age 55 in February 1981 in Harlingen, Texas, far removed from his suc-cess in South Jersey.

He spoke of his legacy in a 1970s inter-view: “The story has got pretty crowded as to who was the father of rock ‘n’ roll,” Haley said. “I’d like to get credit for it.” n

Top 40 Tributes For the ninth year, the Greater Atlantic City Jaycees and Atlantic City Weekly have partnered to pay tribute to 40 of our area’s brightest young people. Interviews conducted and compiled by Casey Harper, Ray Schweibert • [email protected]

FEATURE >>

Motivated by aspirations of bettering their community and servicing oth-ers, the Top 40 Under 40 honorees

are nothing short of deserving of the recog-nition they’ve been given (see our March 7 issue at acweekly.com).

For the ninth year, the Greater Atlantic City Jaycees and Atlantic City Weekly have partnered to pay tribute to those who have demonstrated outstanding work within our area in an array of areas and professions. While most recipients were humbled by the award, it is evident that they are driven by so much more than praise as they exude passion for their work and gratitude for those who support them. Some of this year’s Top 40 Under 40 honorees took time to share their reaction to being honored, and the significance of being part of such an esteemed group, with Atlantic City Weekly. (The group will be celebrated at a party at Mixx at Borgata on Friday, March 22.)

Sheila Hughes“I was truly honored when I learned I had

been nominated for 2013’s Top 40, and I was humbled as I began to learn of the people who took their time to nominate me. I have been a part of the Atlantic City community since I graduated from law school in 2007. I love it here and hope to contribute to the community’s pros-perity long into the future. Being recognized

as an up and coming leader and one of AC’s ‘brightest’ is remarkable, and just reinforces my dedication to the area and its people.”

Dan Jost“Having recently returned to New Jersey

from my trip to the NAMM conference in Anaheim (California), I was already pretty fired up about where my career was headed. When I got the phone call about winning the Top 40 Under 40 award, it was the icing on the cake. I have been liv-ing in southern New Jersey my entire life, but have resided in the A.C. community for the last two years. Being part of the Top 40 Under 40 is a great honor — to be considered an honoree out of the hundreds of applicants is very humbling and also encourages me to continue with my career ambitions. It’s also a nice validation that I’m on the right path!”

Bill Lynskey“When I received the news

that I was nominated I can say that I was extremely elated. It’s not the normal news that I receive every day so to hear that I was selected for this year’s Top 40 Under 40 I can truly say it was exciting news. I’ve been

@acweekly

reading Atlantic City Weekly for as long as I can remember and to know that I would showcased in an issue, well that was pretty neat. I have been a part of the Atlantic City com-munity since I was born. I was born and raised in Atlantic City as a child. My parents moved from Atlantic City to Northfield when I was eight and I’ve been here in Atlantic County ever since. I love this area and feel fortunate to build a career and raise a family in such a great part of South Jersey. Being part of the Top 40 Under 40 is definitely an honor to be a part of here in Atlantic City. I’ve seen many of our area’s most respected, successful, community leaders and entrepreneurs recognized in past years. I don’t know that anyone sets out to be a Top 40er although I am privi-leged to share this award and nomination with many of the finest people South Jersey has to offer. The significance of the Top 40 Under 40 for me is that we are nominated by colleagues, family and friends. It’s flattering to know that my peers recognized me for this award. Success to me is not how much you have or have gained, but how much you use what you have gained to help others in and around and your community. The Top 40 Under 40 will serve as a platform for me to use my success to continue helping others in the community that I know and love — Atlantic City.”

Matthew Generally“Honestly, I had no clue there even was a Top 40 Under

40. So my first reaction was confusion and wondering how I compared to my fellow ‘40ers.’ I was shocked that I was chosen just for doing my job. I am humbled to give families and love ones closure for their loved one’s military service as

I am to part of the Top 40 Under 40. I moved to Galloway in 2009 after returning from Iraq to attend Stockton College. I stayed because I enjoyed being part of a smaller community with the hustle and bustle of Atlantic City across the bay. I see this as an excellent stepping-stone for my transition from solider to teacher. I will use this opportunity to get my face out to potential employers and spread the word of the growing pop-ulation of military veterans trying to become educators. We can add our years of real world experience to the classroom to help better our schools here in Atlantic County.”

Heather Deluca“It was kind of an ‘aw shucks’ moment to learn of my

nomination. I tend to shy away from pats on the back [and] I didn’t want to get caught up in feeling validated by the nomination. But it is truly an honor to be recognized along with these other amazing nominees. It’s been a lovely opportunity to take a look back at my time here in south Jersey, and the windows my work has opened to allow me to help others. I’ve been a member of the community here in south Jersey for about 13 years. The significance of Top 40 Under 40 to me means the possibility of doing even bigger things for the community in the coming years due to the visibility this honor creates.”

Joe Friedman“I was extremely flattered and humbled by the nomination.

It’s great to be considered a part of such a diverse and talented group. I’m not the type of person who seeks the limelight per se, but I will enjoy reveling in this accomplishment. The Top 40 under 40 nomination conveys to me that my work and involvement in this community both personally and professionally, does not go unnoticed. Atlantic City is truly one of the greatest places to work and play. I am excited for the future of this town and appreciate the opportunity to be a part of it’s come back.”

Jeremy Bingaman“Surprised is probably the first thing I felt. I only recently

moved to the Atlantic City region and had no idea I had been nominated. So when I received the phone call congratulat-ing me, I was in total disbelief and shock. I moved to the Atlantic City region in May 2012 to become the Director of Educational Programming at Lucy the Elephant. I was blessed to fall into a great group of active community members and just jumped right in trying my best to contribute in whatever capacity. When I first moved to the area to work at Lucy the Elephant, I did not recognize the landmark’s significance to the local community. It was not until Hurricane Sandy that I started to see how people view the landmark as a symbol of strength. It feels amazing to be part of something that. Moving to the Atlantic City area was a big decision for me. Being selected as one of this year’s Top 40 Under 40 is sig-nificant to me just in knowing that I may be new to the area, but I can still make a difference in the community.”

Bruce Harper“I initially felt surprised, I didn’t believe I was the right

person to be nominated. I thought the Top 40 Under 40 was for very successful business people. I then learned that it

was based (significantly) on community service. The person who nominated me said ‘you do a lot in the community and you should be recognized for it.’ I said ‘OK.’ I was born and raised in Atlantic City and, other than leaving for college, I’ve been in the community living, working, and working with local youth. It was always in my plans to come back home and give back to my community. There are a lot of talented people in Atlantic City that need just a little support to help them flourish. Now, that I am apart of the Top 40 Under 40, I feel very proud. When I’m out in the community, people are congratulating me left and right. My students were very excited to see me in Atlantic City Weekly. A lot of people have reached out to me thorough Facebook and Instagram saying “I’m so proud of you.” It’s a great feeling because I’m so connected with the community and for me to win is very inspiring for other people in the community. The community is sharing that proud feeling with me because they know I’m one of their own. It’s an honor to be apart of the Top 40 and it’s an honor to represent my community in a positive light.”

Caroline Jacobs“I was super excited — all smiles, all evening. What an

honor. I’ve lived in south Jersey for most of my life: Mays Landing, Upper Township and now Somers Point for the past 10 years. I’ve worked in the Atlantic City area since graduating from Stockton in 2002. I spent the majority of the time working for a slot manufacturer, after which I switched directions and went to work for a nonprofit in Margate before final-ly landing a career in marketing at Cape Bank in Atlantic City. Being chosen as one of the Top 40 provides me the opportunity to meet others outside my career field to share ideas and network. It’s a fantastic opportunity!”

Gerald La Hay“Well, I was celebrating at my wedding

reception in Turks and Caicos with my beautiful wife Brittany when my broker, Joshua Levin, checked his e-mail on his phone and noticed an e-mail from our office manager Karen about the Top 40. So Josh and Eric Goldstein (an attorney at Nehmad Perillo & Davis) made an announcement during the recep-tion. I thought they were going to give a speech. So it really was a nice surprise that couldn’t have been timed any better. What better place to find out and have all of our friends and family present. It added some-thing special to an already perfect day. It is a nice recognition of not only hard work but community service and involvement. Long hours in the office is only the beginning — once you take on positions in other civic and charitable organizations, you sacrifice a lot of your family time. I am beginning to understand how (Schultz-Hill Foundation philanthropists) John Schultz and Gary Hill feel. Even Christine and Lew Steiner (of AC Weekly) are out constantly covering and participating in all of these events. I often joke that they have a better social life than I do.”

Jason Ewell“I was extremely excited and to be quite

honest very shocked. Over the years I have watched others who have been honored with this great award, and to be notified that I was nomi-nated was shell shocking to me because I never thought that I would be added to this prestigious list. However once the reality of it set in I had to call everyone that I know to tell them. I have been a lifelong resident. I was born in Atlantic City Medical Center in September 1980, graduated from Atlantic City High School class of 1999, and have made my entire career as a Resident DJ in Atlantic City for the past 14 years. It is a huge honor to be considered with so many of my peers who I respect and admire. There is a vast array of people who have made sig-nificant impacts on our community, and to be honored along with them is an extremely humbling experience. With all that I have achieved and accomplished nothing makes me prouder than to be recognized in my own hometown. On this day I am very proud to say I’m from Atlantic City and I wear that badge with pride.”

David Cohen“I’m glad Hope for Atlantic City is being

recognized — I am definite-ly not a one-man show. It’s always nice to be recognized by your community.”

Howard Copen“I immediately felt the

feeling of accomplishment and truly felt thankful for the person, who recognized my talents and appreciated my efforts. It is a great honor to be recognized as a col-lective group for the previous years’ young professionals accomplishments. It makes me strive to want to accomplish more for the community. I moved here from the Fort Lauderdale, Florida area in March 2011, which makes it just about two years since I have been a part of this wonderful com-munity that I now refer to as home. Being recognized as one of the Top 40 Under 40, symbolizes a sense of belonging to the area for me — a general acceptance. Moreover, it makes me want to pass on the recognition to others that also truly deserve it, even some jealous 50-plus-year-olds who don’t qualify. I have been congratulated by many co-workers, friends, family and other community members. Again, it’s a great award — recognition that’s very humbling

to receive for someone who does not accept compliments well.”

Jason Cardonick“I was really excited that I was now

apart of this great fraternity. It made me feel incredibly grateful to the people who helped me get the accolade, specifically our great casi-no clients and marketing executives. From a profes-sional level for the last 12 years, however my roots have been in Atlantic City since I was 11 years old spending every summer at the Jersey Shore. For one thing, its great to still be under 40. Truly, it’s very meaningful to me and helps validate that all of the work that my company has done. I know there are some people that I truly respect and appreciate for what they helped me achieve. Along the way of this exciting journey, I have been very lucky to connect with some great Atlantic City people who have looked out for me and helped put me and my company in a position to be success-ful. They know who they are, so this recogni-tion is more of a thank you to them than any personal accomplishment.”

Barbie Carney“I am so honored to be nominated as

one of Atlantic City Weekly’s Top 40 Under 40 for 2013. When I was informed that I have been selected I was completely shocked and overwhelmed by so many emotions. The continuous support my league and I receive from my family, friends, and community is more than words could describe. They believe in the Jersey Shore Powder Puff League and what we strive to do for our community in honor of my dad. I wouldn’t be recognized if it wasn’t for them. I’ve lived in Somers Point all 38 years of my life and couldn’t think of a better place to grow up. The people of Somers Point are amazing. Now that I am a part of the Top 40 Under 40 club, I hope to spread the word about the Jersey Shore Puff League and our league’s charity for Pulmonary Fibrosis.”

Jason Lantz“I was extremely excited

to be nominated and recog-nized in our great communi-ty. It is an honor to become a member of such a presti-gious group of individuals [past, present and future] that are making a positive impact in our community.”

Joel Caplan“For some awards, such as this one, the

nomination alone instills a sense of pride. I was honored to know that someone else took time out of their own (probably busy) day to nominate me. I don’t take that for granted and am truly grateful. The cohort of award recipients this year is truly outstanding. This award provided me a unique opportunity to meet them, to learn about our mutual interests, and to identify new possibilities for collaboration. It’s exciting to know that so many people are doing great things in the Atlantic City community. This award forms a common bond among all of the current and former 40 Under 40 recipients. Being part of

this network is a privilege, and something I consider to be quite significant.”

Nicole Gaffney“I was very excited to hear the news. At

only 28, I already feel very accomplished. If there was a Top 30 Under 30 list, I could have made that too! Being one of the young-er honorees makes me feel very special. I have lived in the Atlantic City area since I was born. Growing up, my mother and father both worked in the casino industry. I am and have always been a huge supporter of Atlantic City’s progress. I believe in the city. Owning my own busi-ness, I don’t have the opportunity to receive promotions or accolades through a company. Being recognized for the work I’ve done in this community is a huge accomplishment.”

Peter Madden“When I found out the

news I was getting my kids ready for bed. I was excited and honored. The best part was my nine-year-old daugh-ter overhearing my wife and I talking about it, walked up behind me and gave me a hug and said she was proud of me. I’m very honored to be part of the Top 40 Under 40, I appreciate the recognition.”

Julie Yeager “When I heard I was really excited and

honored. It has been an amazing year profes-sionally for me from being appointed the Director of Sales for The Reeds at Shelter Haven, a new lux-ury, boutique resort open-ing this summer, to earn-ing this prestigious honor. I have been very fortunate in my career to work alongside some really wonderful and talented people. It is incred-ibly rewarding to know that I am mutually respected and well-regarded in my line of work. I am thankful every day to have such a close network of friends, family and col-leagues. My success is contributed to these connections in life and I feel truly blessed.”

Twelve different entrees are available daily for $11.99

Head East!East Bay Crab & Grille, an indie success story for nearly 20 years in EHT.By Frank Gabriel • [email protected]

Egg Harbor Township’s East Bay Crab and Grill stands as one of a very few independent restaurants surviving

along a very busy commercial stretch of the Black Horse Pike.

Now largely the dominion of chain res-taurants or fast food, real estate between the Shore and Hamilton malls once housed a great many upscale providers.

Most of them have since closed, with one regional standby even shutting down last week.

East Bay, celebrating a 19th anniversary this Memorial Day, continues to prove the exception to that rule, largely due to the efforts of general manager/partner Chuck Armstrong.

Arriving during what he candidly described as a very arduous first year for the eatery, Armstrong righted East Bay’s course and has been at the helm ever since.

Previously employed at two popular north Jersey restaurants — Hannah’s in Eatontown and Charley’s Uncle in East Brunswick — he has been in the restaurant business just under four decades.

When asked what surprises him most over the span of that lengthy career, he explains: “Some things used to be predict-able, not anymore.”

He continues, adding that if market con-ditions don’t change “within 10 years, very few if any more independent restaurants [will survive].”

The formula Armstrong has created at East Bay appears to be a sort of business model designed to prevent that from occur-ring.

Sure, the framework is seafood, with inte-riors done up in wood-hued nautical fashion reflecting that fact.

But what seems to drive this place most is a certain carefully-planned structure.

Armstrong even allows that he has spe-cific clientele at different times, including a

very notable “Tuesday night bar crowd.”The dining schedule here includes a

$14.99 “Shrimpfest” every Tuesday, a $21.99 “Lobsterfest” Wednesdays and prime rib on Thursdays in either $16.99 (12 ounce) or $22.99 (22 ounce) cuts.

Twelve different entrees, available every day for $11.99, include the likes of Asian sea bass Rockefeller, crabby mac-n-cheese, chicken and ravioli Florentine and a beer-battered haddock fish and chips.

All are served with a choice of Caesar or the house’s signature Sarasota salad, a plate Armstrong considers to be his most popular item.

It’s a unique combination — an iceberg/romaine mix along with grated Swiss

cheese, ham, tomatoes and sliced green olives — finished with proprietary oil and garlic dressing.

Armstrong’s also quick to point out a published recipe from a 2002 issue of Good Housekeeping magazine, profiling the res-taurant’s complimentary cilantro salsa, which arrives with every basket of bread served.

East Bay is also one of a very few restau-rants we know of regionally continuing to serve the old-school gourmet French treat escargots.

East Bay’s version, true to classic form, presents the prized protein sautéed in but-ter, garlic and white wine.

For those of you who haven’t ever sam-

pled, snails are like a sweeter, less chewy clam.

Rich, heady and luxurious, they are indeed a foodstuff dearly deserving of a return to popularity.

And they’re making it easy for you here, too, delivering them already removed from those pesky shells.

Another epicurean delight served, detailed in our “Wish List” column earlier this year, are Dungeness crabs. Legs remain on the menu year-round, while Armstrong explains that he’ll serve the whole Pacific monsters when in season.

Dungeness are also available as part of the “all-you-can-eat package,” mixing and matching with snow crab legs, Buffalo wings, Bahama mama shrimp and hard shell crabs for those of epic appetites.

Carnivores aren’t neglected either; Armstrong often recommends either the slow-cooked baby-back ribs or Delmonico steak for patrons not seafood-inclined.

The bar area provides a variety of enter-tainment and food options as well.

Tuesday is two for one appetizer night, Wednesdays it’s $3 cheesesteaks and Thursdays from 7-9pm Quizzmaster Michael Walsh holds court with a $25 cash prize to the winner.

Friday nights the weekend begins with an extended Happy hour from 4-7:30pm, $3.50 chicken quesadillas and DJ/karaoke by Shore Entertainment.

That’s along with a free hot and cold buf-fet provided Monday through Friday from 4-7pm.

Throughout all, the one constant here remains the owner himself.

Not only the face of the franchise, answering phones and greeting customers, Armstrong’s professionalism and energy palpably permeates every aspect of the operation, offering hope to independent res-tauranteurs everywhere. n

“Music and poker are two things that really matter to me. I want to get better at both and I think I am. I’ve been studying poker more intently. As for music, going out by myself has been huge for me.”

Sully’s ‘Avalon’Godsmack frontman Sully Erna tours solo, brings own eclectic tunes to House of Blues March 22.By Ed Condran • [email protected]

No matter how successful a band is, it’s hardly uncommon for the frontman to leave to attempt to go in another

direction as a solo artist.Mick Jagger, Phil Collins and Rob Halford

are examples of singers who left incredibly successful bands to go for it as solo artists.

Add Sully Erna to that list. The Godsmack vocalist was compelled to live life outside his band’s terrain.

Erna, who will perform Friday, March 22, at the House of Blues at Showboat in Atlantic City, crafted 2010’s Avalon solo release.

Due to Godsmack’s busy schedule it took Erna seven-years to make the album. The disc is a refreshing change from what Erna has made with his group, which has made its mark with a taut post-grunge sound. Erna adds tribal and Middle Eastern sounds to the familiar muscular and nihilistic music he typically creates.

“It’s a refreshing change from what I’ve done with Godsmack,” Erna tells Atlantic City Weekly.

“I think Godsmack has its own sound, which is great. But I’ve been into so many kinds of music in my life. There’s been so many times I’ve been messing around and I write something that sounds really cool, but it doesn’t sound like it’ll fit in with what Godsmack is all about. The great thing about this is that I can express myself solo and that led to Avalon. This is a record that I had to do for myself. I wasn’t sure it would come out, but thankfully after all these years it did and the amazing thing is that fans have reacted with so much positive energy. I’m overwhelmed by the response Avalon has received.”

The disc is filled with heavy, gloomy songs but it’s also eclectic, unpredictable

and powerful.“I think I hit on many different levels

with this album,” Erna says. “I have so much freedom solo. I’m fortunate to have such an opportunity. I’m trying to make the most of it.”

The live show is a bit scaled down for Erna compared to Godsmack.

“I think that’s a good thing,” Erna says. “When you look at what Godsmack brings live, it’s a big rock show with pyro, lighting and video. It’s on the larger-than-life scale. But I can do something different with this album. Everything doesn’t have to be the big rock show. Sometimes you can go the other way. I’ve gone the other way with Avalon.”

When Erna plays Atlantic City, don’t be surprised to find him at the poker tables since he is one of the best players in the rock world. He played in the 2007 World Series of Poker event and placed 237th, the best of the celebrity participants, out of a field of 6,358, which is crazy impressive.

“Poker is a passion of mine,” Erna says. “I love it. You need to have more than one pas-sion. I have music and, of course, poker. “

Erna won’t be surprised if fans recognize him at the tables in Atlantic City.

“Things like that happen and it’s fine,” Erna says. “Fans have been really cool about seeing me. I understand if someone wants an autograph or picture. It’s nice; they’re

respectful and they get that I’m concentrat-ing on poker.”

It’s not surprising that Erna can do with-out the professional poker players who are crybabies.

“I hate poker players who are whiners,” Erna says. “C’mon, just play the game. I’ve had my moments, but don’t complain. Gambling is gambling. You should know that before you bet. A lot of my shows are in casinos and I can just say that I love that environment. ”

Since Godsmack is on hiatus for a few years, expect Erna to focus on his solo career and poker.

“Music and poker are two things that really matter to me,” Erna says. “I want to get better at both and I think I am. I’ve been studying poker more intently. As for music, going out by myself has been huge for me. It was so different to just go out there behind a piano. You feel naked out there, but you deal with it and I did just that and it’s made me a better musician. I’m a better frontman too. It’s all up to me up there.”

Erna appreciates his time in Godsmack. “That band changed my life,” he says. “I

got so many emotions out via Godsmack. I took out so much of my aggression because of that band. People related to what I sing about because it’s relatable. A lot of music out there is difficult to get but I think it’s not hard to figure what Godsmack is about. Godsmack is like a punch to the gut and that’s so different from my solo work. But the good thing about my life is that I feel I can have it all. I can make different styles of music and when I’m done with that I can relax by focusing on poker. I think that gives me a good balance.” ■

Singer-songwriter Colbie Caillat brings her “Bubbly” tunes to Caesars March 23.By Casey Harper • [email protected]

FEATURE >>

Breaking into the music scene in 2007, California native Colbie Caillat was one of the first artists to be discov-

ered via social media site Myspace, through which her soothing vocals, acoustic melodies and resonate lyrics catapulted her into star-dom. Her debut single — “Bubbly” — peaked at number five on the US Billboard Hot 100, and earned Caillat touring spots with the likes of the Goo Goo Dolls, Lifehouse, and John Mayer. Since then, Caillat has con-tinued to captivate audiences, having most recently been asked to write and record a song for the film Safe Haven, which she did alongside summer tour mate Gavin DeGraw, a track titled “We Both Know.”

Currently touring solo, Caillat phoned in to Atlantic City Weekly while walking the beach in Hawaii. She stops by Caesars Atlantic City for a show on Saturday, March 23.

You were one of the first artists to become such a huge sensation through the use of Myspace. For four months you were the No. 1

unsigned singer in your genre; did you expect to find such success through social media?

Yeah, it was pretty crazy, I didn’t expect it, I didn’t strive for that. I didn’t even know it was going to happen. My friends put my songs up on Myspace, so it was a surprise to me and I actually thought it was too soon because I had literally started writing songs just the year before [laughs]. I had played a couple of shows live acoustic and that was just singing with my friends, a few songs during a set. So when I got signed and had to go on tour it was the most nerve-wracking thing I’ve ever been through.

How did you and Gavin DeGraw end up collaborating for the song “We Both Know,” which you co-wrote for the film Safe Haven?

Well, we were on tour all summer togeth-er so when they approached me about writ-ing a song for the movie, Gavin and I had been wanting to write something together for some time, so we thought it would be cool to try and collaborate for this film. We wrote it together during the tour and it’s been really fun. I mean, that was the best summer tour I’ve ever been on; we had such a great time together. And then writing that song with Gavin and getting to perform it

with him the past few months, we’ve truly had a blast.

Prior to “We Both Know,” had you ever written a song intended for a soundtrack?

Yeah, I had. My song “Something Special” was for the film Letters to Juliet. And then I’ve done a couple other songs, like sung songs for movies, but this is only the second one I’ve actually had to write for, and I’m actually writing for a couple of new ones right now. The process varies for each proj-ect though. Like for this project, they just told us about [the plot of] the movie [Safe Haven] and we just wrote based on that, whereas for Letters to Juliet they allowed me to watch an early screening. Then for the one I’m working on now they just showed me the scenes they wanted to use my song in.

You’ve collaborated with so many talented artists. Is there anyone you have yet to work with who you’d really like to?

You know, the list of people I’ve had the opportunity of working with has been pretty awesome, and there are so many more I would love to add to that list. Coldplay would be amazing. It would also be fun to record a song with John Mayer because I think our voices would work really well together.

Your voice and overall music both have such a peaceful, happy sound. Who are some of your biggest inspirations and influences?

My biggest musical influences are classic rock. My parents raised me on Fleetwood Mac, Steve Miller, Tom Petty. Then my sister got me into Bob Marley. The acoustic music of all of those artists and the positiv-ity and the writing about love and relation-ships, I think I learned from all that. And then I heard Lauryn Hill sing and just fell in love with her voice. That made me want to start singing. Listening to soul and R&B music added another aspect to the sound I was looking to generate. I’ve only been playing the guitar since I was 19, so it’s relatively new. I had never wanted to play an instrument, I didn’t have the desire to, I only liked singing and I didn’t understand why I had to learn an instrument. My dad is in the business and would always say ‘you want to be a songwriter too, you don’t just want to be a singer,’ and I didn’t listen for years. I finally took one guitar lesson when I was 19 and I went home that night having learned two or four chords and I wrote my first song. Turns out my dad knew what he was talking about [laughs]. ■

Halle Berry, Abigail Breslin team up for taut thriller ‘The Call’By Lori Hoffman • [email protected]

If you heard that the final 20 minutes of The Call is based on a flawed, almost silly premise, you have been

properly informed. However, even though the finish of the film is beyond the reach of believability, somehow it didn’t spoil the suspense that preceded it.

Halle Berry stars as Jordan Turner, a 911 operator in Los Angeles. When a call comes in from a teenage girl whose house is being broken into, Jordan tries to keep her calm as help is on the way. However Jordan makes a terrible blunder and the resulting death of the teen is enough to take Jordan off the phone lines and into a support position as a 911 instructor.

Then one night she is tossed into the fray again when she takes over for a rattled newcomer on a call that is eerily similar to the one that made Jordan walk away. This time a teenage girl, Casey Welson (Abigail Breslin) is in the trunk of a car. From this moment the film goes into effective suspense overdrive mode, with Jordan and Casey working together to figure out a way to find Casey’s location and stop the mad-man who has taken her.

The suspense is terrific and when Jordan comes up with a clever idea to provide a trail to facilitate Casey’s rescue you are rooting for them all the way.

Of course the rescue is impeded by a cou-ple of potholes, including a poor sap (played by The Soprano’s Michael Imperioli) who makes the fatal error of figuring out there is something wrong with this guy who has paint dripping out of his car.

Just when you are sure the suspense is over and the cops are closing in on the kidnapper, the movie takes a detour that is only there to provide Berry’s character with the opportunity to be the heroine and rescue

Casey by herself. I partly blame the CSI TV franchise. It has been telling us for years that lab geeks get to go out and interrogate witnesses and carry guns and confront bad guys. Now we are asked to believe that a 911 operator would feel so empowered and angry about this sicko that she decides to visit a crime scene by herself unarmed and without telling anybody what she is doing.

It’s a move right out of the cheap horror movie playbook and while it is annoying, the rest of the film got us to this exciting point and my credibility meter decided to give the detour a pass.

Berry’s expressive empathy for the victim and the sense of guilt from her previous failure make her a true heroine even as we chastise her for going off by herself. As for Abigail Breslin, she — like Jodie Foster before her — is making what can be an often difficult transition from child actor to young adult seem effortless. The little girl from Little Miss Sunshine is growing up nicely with the acting chops to suggest she should have a long career.

Brad Anderson, a veteran TV director (Fringe, Boardwalk Empire, The Wire) does a nice old-school job of building suspense by classic crosscutting between the two women and provides a finish that effectively pro-vides classic horror film frights.

The Call is a solid entry as a female-centric thriller. n
