Concert review: ELO tunes showcased at Mohegan Sun

UNCASVILLE, Conn. — Electric Light Orchestra music continues to fill the classic rock airwaves even though the British group’s heyday was in the 1970’s.

The Electric Light Orchestra Experience: Evil Woman featuring The American ELO, was a two-hour show at the Mohegan Sun Arena Friday night.

The arena was nearly packed with about 7,000 fans, a sign of how popular ELO music remains despite not taking in the original group.

The concert featuring a 12-member band, including a small orchestra, played most of the group’s hits, with several other tunes as part of the song set.

“Turn to Stone” was followed by the band’s signature song, “Evil Woman,” a Top 10 from the 1975 album “Face the Music.”

“Jungle” from the “Out of the Blue” LP was an appropriate Earth Day song, with a video of animals in a jungle setting.

“Mr. Blue Sky” stayed with the Earth Day theme.

After an intermission, the second set list covered the Top 10 “Shine a Little Love” from 1979 and the catchy “Strange Magic” from 1976 that showcased a sharp guitar intro and cello.

“Last Train to London” showed the band’s British roots.

“Hold on Tight” is actually from the early 1980’s, just making the Top 10 Billboard chart.

Another toe-tapper, the “Can’t Get It Out Of My Head,” which placed No. 9 on the charts in 1974, led to “Confusion” and the party anthem “Do Ya” from 1977.

“Showdown,” “Sweet Talkin’ Woman” and “Roll Over Beethoven” closed the show, the latter obviously predominantly featuring the string section, but also with the guitarists lined up along the front of the stage.

There were four guitarists, including a Jeff Lynne look-alike on lead vocals, four violinists — one who also played the cello — a backup female singer, two keyboardists, and a drummer.

The musicians hailed from places around the…

Sen. Baker, Rep. Ryncavage open new offices in Nanticoke

Apr. 21—NANTICOKE — Sen. Lisa Baker on Thursday said a crucial part of public service is meeting face-to-face with constituents, listening to what they have to say and alerting them to state programs and services that may assist in improving their personal situation.

Baker, R-Lehman Township, Rep. Alec Ryncavage, R-Plymouth, announced they will host a joint open house at their district offices on Friday, April 28, from noon to 4 p.m., at 50 North Walnut St., Suites 105 (Baker) and 102 (Ryncavage), in Nanticoke.

The lawmakers are opening offices in a new downtown building at 50 N. Walnut St., constructed for Nockley Family Pharmacy and Cawley Physical Therapy and Rehab.

“For people who want to talk about issues, this joint open house allows them to gain perspective from both the Senate and state House,” Baker said. “We receive input and information from a wide variety of sources, but community conversation still gives the most helpful insight.”

Ryncavage said that as a new legislator he is grateful that he and a seasoned senator like Baker will be in close proximity to one another as they help their constituents.

“Our neighboring offices create a one-stop shop for our residents,” Ryncavage said. “The building and ample off-street parking make our space accessible, welcoming and convenient for those needing legislative services.”

The offices of Baker and Ryncavage can assist residents with PennDOT paperwork, driver’s license and vehicle registration applications and renewals; information and applications for senior citizen benefit programs, including Property Tax/Rent Rebate and PACE/PACENET prescription drug programs; securing birth and death certificates (photo identification required); organizing tours of the state Capitol; copies of legislation; and many other services.

Everyone who plans to attend the open house event is asked to RSVP to Liz Gorski or Beth Clemow by April 24 at — lgorski@pasen.gov — or — bclemow@pahousegop.com.

Pennsbury Manor Evokes Native American History with nkwiluntàmën Exhibit

By John Fey

Published: 5:08 am EDT April 18, 2023Published: April 18, 2023Updated: 7:46 am EDT April 18, 2023

The artist used the natural landscape for his installation.

A historic manor in Bucks County is hosting an artistic exhibit that celebrates the rich history of the area and its first inhabitants. Peter Crimmins wrote about the exhibit for WHYY.

Pennsbury Manor, William Penn’s historic estate in Morrisville, has commissioned artist and Lenape descendant Nathan Young for an exhibit that evokes Lenni Lenape history. The exhibit is called “nkwiluntàmën: I long for it; I am lonesome for it (such as the sound of a drum).”

Young has installed noise and avant-garde music at the historic house, which is administered by the Pennsylvania Historic and Museum Commission. This aids in reflecting  the noisy history of the Lenape people.

“This is my own personal opinion, but a lot of land acknowledgments seem to be just lip service,” said Young. “But here at Pennsbury Manor, by letting me do things like this and other things that Pennsbury has done for the recognized Delaware tribes – what they do matters. It’s not just lip service.”

The artist has installed several speakers on high-backed garden benches around the residence. Each of these plays music created by several composers for the piece. In addition many large signs are painted white, black, yellow, and red. The goal is to help guide visitors on a poetic journey.
