Tame Impala Brings ‘Slow Rush Tour’ To Mohegan Sun [Photos/Videos]

Kevin Parker brought Tame Impala‘s Slow Rush Tour to Uncasville, CT on Saturday for a show at Mohegan Sun Arena. Junglepussy got the show started and pumped up the crowd with a rap set that included her most well-known song “Trader Joe”. She’s undoubtedly a great entertainer, full of raw, unapologetic emotion and lyrics. While it certainly seemed like an odd pairing at first, the energy was right.

By the time Parker and his touring band hit the stage for their first-ever show in Connecticut, the 7,000-plus fans in attendance were ready to explode. Despite being an almost sold-out arena, it felt about as intimate a setting to catch Tame Impala as you’ll find anymore when compared to other big-city arenas the Australian psych-rockers are hitting.

The setlist remained unchanged from his entire tour, leading off with “One More Year”, the dancy jam to set the energy, before transitioning into the disco-infused “Borderline” and then psychedelic, bass-infused “Nangs”. By the time Tame Impala’s trademark confetti and lasers were on full display, every fan young and old was up and dancing. Parker certainly isn’t the most animated performer, but his music and production carry him to the very top of today’s touring acts.

A collection of fan-shot videos is also available from YouTube user relentfx. Next up for Tame Impala is a two-night run at Brooklyn, NY’s Barclay’s Center on March 14th and 15th.

Adjusting delivery services to offset high fuel costs

Many businesses and organizations are having to make changes to the way they operate.

NANTICOKE, Pa. — Stan Gorgas spends a lot of time behind the wheel as a delivery driver for Brick House Pizza in Nanticoke. He’s been keeping a close eye on the price at the pump. 

“I went to work and watched as I drove back on different deliveries, and the price just kept going up, up, up. It was $50 one week. Now we’re spending $80.”

The owners of Brick House Pizza started paying the drivers extra money out of their own pockets to offset high fuel costs. 

But drivers say the majority of their tips are still going toward filling their tanks. 

“Some days, they’ll do 50 to 80 miles on their own car,” said co-owner Ken Hillman.

So Ken and Debbie Hillman decided to tack on a $1 delivery charge that will go directly to the drivers.

“We held off as long as we could with raising our prices, and for two years since we opened, we were doing free delivery,” Debbie said. “But the gas prices are just sky-high now, and it doesn’t seem like it’s gonna end any time soon.”

Kevin Young sometimes travels more than 60 miles round trip to deliver pet food to people in need. 

He’s the president of Pawsitively for the Animals, a nonprofit based in Scranton that provides financial assistance and supplies to pet owners.

The organization can’t afford to spend money on gas.

“So my wife and I are eating this bill. We always have. But when we started the program, gas was $2.20 a gallon,” Young said.

Young decided to limit deliveries to one day in Lackawanna County and one day a week in Luzerne County. He’s trying to consolidate as many deliveries as he…

POULIN HAT TRICK GRANTS PENS 6-2 WIN ON STAR WARS NIGHT

BOXSCORE

WILKES-BARRE, Pa. – The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins defeated the Laval Rocket, 6-2, during the team’s annual Star Wars Night at Mohegan Sun Arena at Casey Plaza.

No Jedi mind tricks were necessary for rookie Sam Poulin to score the first hat trick of his career. His three goals on Saturday night helped secure the win for his club and improve Wilkes-Barre/Scranton to 24-23-4-4.

It didn’t take long for the two teams to switch the offense into hyperdrive. Poulin tallied his first of the night with a wicked shot on the rush at 1:14 of the opening frame. However, the Rocket responded with a goal by Joël Teasdale 26 seconds later.

Poulin found twine again four minutes into regulation, and Chris Bigras lifted the Penguins to a 3-1 lead at 12:12 of the first period.

After a quiet second stanza, things opened up again in the third. Alex Nylander notched a power-play goal less than two minutes into the final frame, putting Wilkes-Barre/Scranton ahead, 4-1.

Now turned to the Dark Side, former Penguin Jean-Sébastien Dea cut the Rocket’s deficit back down to two by setting up Raphaël Harvey-Pinard for a backdoor tap-in during a four-on-three man advantage. But this time it was the Penguins’ turn to strike back in swift fashion. Félix Robert converted on a breakaway 1:12 after Harvey-Pinard’s power-play goal.

Poulin rounded out the scoring and completed the hat trick with an empty-net goal with 1:57 left in regulation.

Goaltender Louis Domingue turned in a stellar performance for the Penguins, as he made 37 saves to earn the victory.

L-P Guindon started the game in net for Laval, but was pulled after allowing three goals on six shots faced. Kevin Poulin steered away 20 of the 22 shots he…

The Greater Nanticoke Area Class of 2021 is seen in this file photo. Greater Nanticoke Area School District’s spring break will run April 14-16, exactly as scheduled, Superintendent Ron Grevera announced at the start of Thursday’s regular monthly meeting.

File photo

NANTICOKE — Greater Nanticoke Area School District’s spring break will run April 14-16, exactly as scheduled, Superintendent Ron Grevera announced at the start of Thursday’s regular monthly meeting. But that’s actually unusual, he added after the meeting.

Spring break is often eaten up by snow make up days, something that has become a rarity in schools since the COVID-19 pandemic struck in 2020. Districts developed extensive remote-only education abilities on the Internet, and the state introduced “Flexible Instruction Days” as a recognized use of the technology, which most local districts have been taking advantage of this winter.

One change was made to the April calendar: The monthly board meeting was moved to April 21. It had been slated, as usual, for the second Thursday of the Month, but this April that will be the Thursday before Easter.

The board also:

• Accepted the resignations of Paul Gerrity and Chynna Jackson as assistant softball coaches, School Psychologist Rachel Kozich, and cleaners Bonnie Long and Serah Purcel

• Approved use of the Elementary Center gym by Nanticoke Area Little League for player tryouts March 19-20.

• Approved the purchase…
