Fame on Fire

The Ohio electronic/prog metal band has been around a decade now, out on their Horizons Tour from the album of the same name. The tour starts in KC with support from Red, Fame on Fire, and Smash into …

Japan’s One OK Rock is currently on tour in support of their new album Luxury Disease (Fueled by Ramen), selling out the Fillmore in Minneapolis on October 9th.

Fillmore Marquee

Opening the show was Florida’s Fame on Fire (Bryan Kuznitz - vocals, Blake Saul - guitar, Paul Spirou - bass, Alex Roman - drums). The band was originally a covers band, who gained fame when they covered Adele’s “Hello”. So it made sense that they covered Linkin Park’s “Numb”…. and based on audience feedback, this was the most popular song on their set.

They ended their brief 30-min set with “HEADSPACE”, which required audience’s participation by shouting back, “I’m okay!”

You Me At Six Setlist

Next up was English rock band You Me At Six, featuring lead singer Josh Franceschi, guitarists Max Helyer and Chris Miller, bassist Matt Barnes and drummer Daniel Flint. The band first hit success in 2008 with the release of their debut album Take Off Your Colours, which had the singles “Finders Keepers” and “Kiss and Tell”. By 2014, their fourth album, Cavalier Youth, landed at #1 on the UK charts.

Line for One OK Rock

The waiting line for the sold-out, all-ages show for One OK Rock was one of the longest line I’ve seen in a while. The line stretched around the block. This has to do with the strict security at the Fillmore venue, which requires you to remove all metal objects when you pass through the metal detectors. This includes removing your hat, watch, and belt, which is uncommon for many venues in the area.

Vuart: One OK Rock

I was inspired to do a quick doodle for one of my favorite ‘kick in your face’ photo that I took at the show. As you can see, the band has a lot of energy and really fun to watch.

(Arrive early on those UK/IE dates to catch NYC [London-based] four-piece Pretty Sick, grunge leaning alt-rockers whose debut full-length, Makes Me Sick Makes Me Smile is out 30 Sept on Dirty Hit, and they'll be in the US headlining club shows in Oct/Nov.)

Remakes and Reboots

Read More

Zatoichi

The Zatoichi series ran 26 movies (1962-1982) and a television series ran for five years (1974-1979). Twenty years later, Takeshi "Beat" Kitano reinvented Zatoichi with his version of the character. ....

DEFIANT (2022)
douban.com

Defiant (目中无人), aka Blind Sword, a 2022 Chinese movie, is clearly a rip off of Zatoichi. You know me, I love Zatoichi, I own all of Toho’s films on DVD and Bluray (thanks to the Criterion boxset), and even owning the television series and later stories: Zatoichi (2003), Ichi (Zatoichi’s blind daughter!), and Zatoichi: The Last (the final film in the official Zatoichi series).

Of course, the new Chinese film isn’t the first to copy Zatoichi, in America, we had Blind Fury in 1989, about a blind Vietnam Vet with a cane sword and in Italy, we had Blindman, a Spaghetti Western about a blind gunman.

Defiant is about a blind master swordsman and ex-military general. It has all the traits of Zatoichi, for example you find him in a gambling den at the start of the film. Of course, he has the advantage, despite being blind. Then you have the goons at the establishment trying to rob the blind gambler of his money - big mistake!

The whole thing really felt like a Chinese version of a Zatoichi movie. The only difference is that instead of a pretense of a bumbling blind masseur, the Defiant character is a blind bounty hunter by day. And he seems sure of himself, walking around, with his horse, like a normal person.

I think the writer/director of the film counted on their audience to not know Zatoichi, so when Defiant reveals the swords in the cane, it was no surprise to me… but I bet everyone in China thought that was a really cool reveal.

Defiant has some cool fight scenes, especially the big throw-down finale, but it also has some typical, cheesy moments (any scenes with the young bride).

There’s nothing wrong with Defiant, especially if you know it’s a Chinese version of Zatoichi, but I wish it would do a little more to set it apart from the source material. For example, a few years ago, South Korea released The Swordsman, about the country’s best swordsman, who became blind. No one could accuse the film of copying Zatoichi, as the South Korean film is very different than a typical Zatoichi adventure.

My other complaint about Defiant is that the main character is so sure of himself, so confident in his Kung Fu abilities, that, you, as an audience, never thought he could be in any real danger. Even during the scenes with him being hit with arrows… I never thought he could die. With the original Zatoichi, he let others thinks his blindness is a disadvantage… so he plays the bumbling idiot. It’s only in a real fight does Zatoichi shows his true deadly sword skills… and by that time, it’s too late for the villains.

Maybe it is unfair to compare Defiant to Zatoichi, but given how much material the Chinese film stole from the source, I think it’s fair game to criticize it a little.

Stephen King

Anyone captivated by the latest Stephen King adaptation to hit the screen, Lisey’s Story (currently streaming on Apple TV+) will undoubtedly notice the soundtrack music and second single ....

FIRESTARTER (2022)
firestartermovie.com

Like Carrie and Pet Sematary, no one asked for a remake of Firestarter… yet, here we are, with the 2022 horror film, based on the novel of the same name by Stephen King.

I actually like and enjoy the original 1984 film starring a young Drew Barrymore, so I was highly skeptical that this new version could be better than the first film. The main problem is that it was produced by one of the worst writer/producer, Akiva Goldsman. Goldsman is responsible for the terrible Batman & Robin, and he’s also responsible for ruining Star Trek. Yes, I used to be a massive Star Trek fan, but the modern Trek stuff is absolutely terrible.

Anyway, due to the pandemic, Blumhouse Productions and Weed Road Pictures put Firestarter on hold until Universal Pictures finally released it in May 2022, simultaneously in theaters and on Peacock.

Naturally, the film received negative reviews from critics. Rotten Tomatoes, shows only 10% of critics’ reviews were positive.

I think the worst part of the movie are the villains. The new person in charge of the government tracking down Charlie the Firestarter is now played by a woman. While women can be as evil as men, I didn’t understand why it was necessary to make the original white man into a black woman? The bounty hunter is now played by an American Indian named Michael Greyeyes (the original 1984 film featured an assassin named John Rainbird).

Perhaps you’re not meant to “hate” the villains, but, to me, to make the film effective, you have to make the villains evil, so you don’t feel bad when they are nuked by Charlie.

Liam Neeson

Based on Lawrence Block’s bestselling series of mystery novels, A Walk Among the Tombstones stars Liam Neeson as Matt Scudder, an ex-NYPD cop who now works as an unlicensed private investigator operating just outside the law. ....

MEMORY (2022)
memorymov.com

Liam Neeson plays a hitman with a heart of gold in Memory. The hitman, suffering from early stages of Alzheimer, decides to make things right after declining a contract to kill a young girl. The 2022 film is based the Belgian film The Alzheimer Case.

Maybe it is because it is based on the film (turned novel De Zaak Alzheimer by Jef Geeraerts), but I did not like any of the characters in the film (except, of course, the incredibly smart hitman). Guy Pearce plays a really dumb detective/policeman, Monica Bellucci plays a wealthy mother, covering up her son’s crimes.

What I do love about Memory is just how amazing Liam Neeson is on screen. Even though the actor is in his 70s, he was still an action star, to me. For example, his brutal, brutal fight scene with the hitman in the parking lot is just so gritty and real. I really did believe Neeson could destroy a man with his bare hands.

As amazing as Neeson is, he really couldn’t save the movie. The story is predictable, and all the other characters, such as the cops, are portrayed as idiots and not well written.

As a big Neeson fan, I really hope this is not his last film, as his career will end on a bad note.

I’ll just say that Memory is a forgettable film.

4Mix at Minnesota Songkran Festival, St Paul (29 May 2022)

4Mix

Thai boy group, 4Mix (stylized as 4MIX) is making their American debut appearance at the Minnesota Songkran Festival at the State Capital in St Paul, Minnesota. ...

Making their American debut appearance, Thai pop group 4Mix was one of the main attractions at the Minnesota Songkran Festival, at the State Capital in St Paul, over the weekend (May 28-29).

The Songkran Festival, which means “water festival”, celebrate Thai New Year. The free event, by the Thai Cultural Council of Minnesota, was originally scheduled in April, but due to bad weather, the event was postponed to the last week of May. According to the news, the event attracted over 20,000 attendees.

In addition to the various entertainment, from parades to eating contest to dance to music, there were also street food vendors, as well as souvenir vendors.

We caught the Papaya Salad Eating Contest, which featured contestants of Vietnamese (from Wisconsin) to Hmong to India. India won the 1st place of $500 cash.

Next were various dance troops (K-Moves, Sweet and Spicy, Daybreak, Finesse, Spam) represented by Minneapolis-based group Asian Media Access.

We also saw popular Thai songs, sung by Bang with the Miss Grand Drag Queen as dancers.

The MC from Philadelphia had to vamp for time, when a last-minute change in the main schedule, moved 4Mix from 3:30pm to 4pm… and their performance would simply close out the event.

After a few songs, 4Mix, featuring Ninja, Mcka, Folksong, and George, mentioned that they also perform with Yean Papitchaya, who showed up to sing a three-song set, in between 4Mix’s set. Then she would later join the group to help conclude their set.

The weird thing about this Thai music show is that the audience would often run to the stage and hand money to the performers. This must be a cultural thing, this kind of thing doesn’t happen in normal American concerts.

4Mix played their debut single, “Y U Comeback”, as well as their new single, “Roller Coaster”. They mentioned that they had a new single coming out, which they played for us, and it’s called “Fang Fang”.

By the time the LGBTQ-friendly group record and release their debut album, you can expect a promotional tour for the record. Hopefully, we’ll hear from them again. As far as this being their American debut, things are looking positive for the band.

PARIS BY NIGHT
thuyngashop.com

Celebrating their 20th Anniversary, Paris By Night is taking place this weekend (April 4-5) at Pechanga Resort & Casino in Temecula, California. There are a few of these Vietnamese-variety shows, but Paris By Night is the original and the best ... thanks to its massive talent pool and stage productions. Entitled Thuy Nga Productions Presents - Paris by Night 114: 1975-2015 - Toi La Nguoi Viet Nam, with the most important words that translates "I Am Vietnamese".

This year's 100+ performers will include singers Bang Kieu, Mai Thien Van, Minh Tuyet, Nhu Quynh, Ngoc Anh, and Quang Le. Longtime hosts Nguyen Ngoc Ngan and Nguyen Cao Ky Duyen will return once again to emcee the four-hour live concerts.

I've own a few of these Paris by Night DVDs, which are typically sold at various Vietnamese stores, or you can purchase direct. They usually come with two DVDs and will sometime have behind-the-scene special features. They have a phenomenal video production team, which includes a live director and large video crew.

Additional details:

In addition to the performers, nearly two dozen special guests who are renowned internationally in their respected fields will grace the stage in person or by previously recorded message. VIP guests include Bill Mathis (US Navy Rear Admiral [Ret.]), chef Khai Duong (gold medalist in the 2012 International Beijing Culinary Competition), Hubert Vo (Texas State Representative), Hung Cao (US Naval Training Center Commander), Janet Nguyen (California State Senator), Nha Khanh (fashion designer), Ta Duc Tri (current mayor of Westminster, CA), Thuy Vu (news anchor), Trinh Tien Tinh (NASA Hall of Fame Engineer), and others.

Paris By Night 114 is directed by the Emmy Award-winning Ron De Moraes (XIX Winter Olympics Opening, Miss Universe, Miss USA, Celebrity Apprentice, Whose Line is it Anyway?, Entertainment Tonight, Soul Train), with production design by David Edwards (Jimmy Kimmel Live, MTV Video Awards Pre-Show, Masters of Dance), choreography by the Emmy Award-winning Shanda Sawyer* (Ringling Bros. Barnum & Bailey, Dancing With the Stars, Siegfried & Roy, Miss America, Motown Live, The Keenan Ivory Wayans Show), and lighting design by Simon Miles (Miss America, World Music Awards, Dancing with the Stars, American Idol, CMT Music Awards).

JESSICA DOMINGO
jessicadomingo.com

YouTube pop singer-songwriter Jessica Domingo recently released her new single " "Everything Just Wasn't Enough" off her upcoming EP, Masterpiece.

Additional details about Domingo:

BuzzFeed says that Domingo “has made a name for herself with her soulful voice.” Fanlala calls her style “a toe-tapping beat that still puts us at ease.” With such praise, it’s no wonder she was a world-wide semi-finalist in the Unsigned Only Music Competition 2014, a top 3 finalist of Asian American Singing Idol and a multi-time performer at the Bite of Seattle Festival. She released her first EP, Take A Chance in 2010 and in March followed up with her debut full-length album, Just Vibe, on which she wrote, performed and produced all the tracks.

Domingo has also been featured in the New Artist Spotlight of You Know I Got Soul, as well as outlets such as GroundSounds, Solo Vibes Music, Pen’s Eye View and many more. Examiner.com recently premiered her latest video release, “Masterpiece,” raving about her “superb vocals” and the way the video “brilliantly blends live action and beautiful animation.” “Masterpiece” is also in the finalist round for the International Songwriting Competition.
