BACK OUT ON<br />
THE ROAD<br />
BY RELUCTANT GENIUS<br />
Hey everyone! I am beyond excited to share some amazing news with you all. Depeche<br />
Mode, the iconic band that has been rocking our world for decades, is back out on<br />
the road!<br />
For those who may not be familiar, Depeche Mode is a British electronic music band<br />
that formed in 1980. They have been pioneers in the genre, blending elements of<br />
synth-pop, new wave, and alternative rock to create their unique sound. With hits<br />
like "Enjoy the Silence," "Personal Jesus," and "Just Can't Get Enough," they have<br />
captured the hearts of millions around the globe.<br />
But it's not just their<br />
music that makes them<br />
special. Depeche Mode has an<br />
incredible history that has<br />
shaped the music industry.<br />
From their early days as a<br />
teenage band to their rise<br />
to international fame, they<br />
have always pushed<br />
boundaries, and challenged<br />
societal norms. Their lyrics<br />
often touch on themes of<br />
love, faith, and personal<br />
struggles, resonating with<br />
fans on a deep level.<br />
Now, after a brief hiatus,<br />
Depeche Mode is hitting the<br />
road once again, ready to<br />
captivate audiences with<br />
their electrifying performances. Their tour promises to be a spectacular experience,<br />
filled with their greatest hits and some surprises along the way.<br />
As a fan, I can't express how thrilled I am to have the opportunity to witness their<br />
live performances. The energy, the passion, and the sheer talent that Depeche Mode<br />
brings to the stage are unparalleled. It's a chance to be part of something truly<br />
extraordinary.<br />
So, mark your calendars and get ready to dance, sing, and lose yourself in the music.<br />
Depeche Mode is back, and they are ready to take us on a journey like no other. Let's<br />
celebrate their incredible history, their timeless music, and the impact they have had<br />
on our lives.<br />
Who's joining me on this unforgettable ride? Let's make some memories together and<br />
experience the magic of Depeche Mode once again!<br />

THE MOVIE REVIEW<br />
AN AMERICAN IMPERICAL PICTURE BY WES ANDERSON<br />
REVIEW BY PAUL MARINO*<br />
Last week, I saw Sean, the co-founder of <strong>Static</strong> Live <strong>Magazine</strong>, at Chases on the Beach, and he said to me, “I have some good news<br />
and some bad news. Which do you want first?” Of course, I said, “The good news.” “I want you to review Wes Anderson's new film, Asteroid<br />
City.” I can't tell you how happy I was to hear that. The movie is so good, and so dense, that we went to see it two days in a row, the two<br />
days prior. So that was the good news: I got a chance to review this fine, freakishly weird film. “So, Sean, what's the bad news?” “You<br />
only get 600 words to do the review.” So that's the dilemma. Review one of the best and most thematically complex films of the year, in<br />
600 words, 155 of which I just wasted telling you that story.<br />
It's a play-within-a-play movie. The within a play being the bulk, important part of the piece. It's contained within a television show in the<br />
'50s. The TV show is introduced by an unnamed host (Bryan Cranston), explaining that we're about to get to see the play Asteroid City<br />
performed in the comfort of your homes on the new entertainment medium of television. Asteroid City, the play, is about the lives of the<br />
characters in it, and is in Wes Anderson's signature popping bright colors. The scenes of the behind the scenes, the making of Asteroid<br />
City, the television show, are in black and white. Complicated, right? Well let's add some bulk to that. The ensemble cast is huge and<br />
fabulous. It includes, to name a few Jason Schwartzman, Scarlett Johansson, Tom Hanks, Tilda Swinton, Edward Norton, Adrien Brody,<br />
Steve Carrell, Matt Dillon, Willem Defoe, Margot Robbie, and Jeff Goldblum.<br />
The plot...oh God, this plot. Well let's just talk about the setting first. That's easier. The setting of the television show is unclear, perhaps,<br />
given it takes place in the '50s, New York City. However the nested piece, the play Asteroid City, takes place in the west somewhere, in<br />
the desert, in the fictionalized town Asteroid City over a few days in September 1955. A one-road town, with a gas station attended by<br />
Mechanic (Matt Dillon), a diner with three employees, a motel with a Manager (Steve Carell) and a Handyman, and a crater where an<br />
asteroid fell. Hence the name of the town. A pair of unrelated events transpire periodically that help reveal where the fictionalized town<br />
is: Atomic bombs are tested in the not-too-distance; and gangsters are pursued down the Asteroid City Street, one way or another, by law<br />
enforcement, and law enforcement by gangsters.<br />
Asteroid City's motel is full to capacity with the families of the finalists of the Junior Stargazers' Astronomy Convention. As with many of<br />
Wes Anderson's films, children play a big part. The main characters are photojournalist Augie Steenback & his brainiac son Woodrow (Jason<br />
Schwartzman & Jake Ryan), and Marilyn Monroe-like Midge Campbell & her genius daughter Dinah (Scarlett Johansson & Grace Edwards).<br />
Tilda Swinton is Dr. Hickenlooper, a local scientist; Willem Dafoe is Saltzburg Kettle, who is in the TV part of the film, and plays a Elia<br />
Kazan-ish Method Acting teacher; and I would be remiss not to mention Jeff Goldblum as The Alien.<br />
Asteroid City is hilarious in a Wes Anderson, not Dumb and Dumber, way. And complex in a Wes Anderson, not Tenet, way. And joyful in a<br />
Wes Anderson, not It's a Wonderful Life, way. To say any more would be to say too little, To say any less would be to say too much. “And<br />
that's all I have to say about that.” Except, when you see it, tell me: “Why does Augie burn his hand on the Quicky-Griddle?” Asteroid City<br />
is still in theaters as of this writing, albeit not many, and can be rented for top dollar on Amazon Prime.<br />

ON LOCALS<br />
Wen By Joe Payne<br />
In 1965, I started my music journey th my<br />
three brothers - Gene, Larry and Gary - <br />
Sweet Spngs, Missou. My father, Berry Gene<br />
Payne bought a Kay guar and a small amp. One<br />
day whe my dad was at work, Gene went to<br />
my Dad's room and brought the guar and amp<br />
out to our front por. We began trng to play.<br />
Gene owed me an E7 ord whi was hard to<br />
play on that old guar.<br />
Gene got an offer to play bass a local black rhythm and blues band. So my Dad, Gene and I went to a<br />
music store and bought a Sound amp, an Egmond guar and a bass guar. We soon brought my younger<br />
brothers to the mix. Larry on guar, Gary soon took over the bass dues and Gene sted to vocals.<br />
Around 1970 we started plang professionally as the Payne Brothers band. We were the house band at<br />
Breakers then Moe's Bar whi is now Traders and then Pub 44. We played locally for 45 years and put<br />
out 2 CDs, "Blk of an Eye" and "Take on Life".<br />
After Gene passed, we played for several years along th Chs Tmble on keyboards and sax. We have<br />
played th so many great musicians ... too many to ve cred to. Some of the most notable ones are<br />
Robert Top Thomas, Shawn Beamer and Sco Corn.<br />
The band eventually disbanded. I then sted to plang solo gs as Joe Payne and Fends, whi led<br />
me to recordg at Sonny Yambor's Sunspla Studios along th Sonny as enneer and some of Volusia<br />
County's finest musicians, cludg Mark Evangelista on bass, harmony vocals and lead vocals on Iron<br />
Horse. Bryan Benne played drums on all tracks except Blues Busters, whi was played by Bly Dean.<br />
Lois Ridgdl played Hammond B3 and sang background vocals, Ryan Ltle played elec piano and Me<br />
Kaye also played bass. We produced my first solo CD to ve cred and tbute to all the great guasts<br />
who came before me and fluenced me to wte this onal CD entled "Blues Muze".<br />
