2015 Dracula Trailer - Grand Opera House, Oshkosh, WI
DRACULA
OCTOBER 21-22, 2015
Grand Opera House, Oshkosh, WI
“...a pitch-perfect ballet for our times – bold and fresh, sexy, fast-paced, and extremely entertaining.” — Susan Kepecs/Cultural Oyster
Madison Ballet’s interpretation of the Bram Stoker classic returns to the stage with a unique, high-volume mix of rock concert and contemporary ballet.
An undeniable success in its 2013 premiere, Dracula breathes new life into the story of the undead. It features the athletic choreography of Artistic Director W. Earle Smith and an original rock score composed by Michael Massey, played live on stage by a seven piece band.
With steampunk sets and costumes plus vintage video footage, Dracula is a performance experience like no other.

Lil' Davy Max -- Livin' Drivin' & Playin' The Blues
Oshkosh Blue Note Records
A review of Lil' Davy's CD by Mick Rainsford of Blues in Britain states:
Lil' Davy Max plays vintage Chicago blues the way they should be played, steeped in the Windy City tradition replete with guitar, harp and piano melding as one in the ensemble style that was a feature of the town's blues in the 50s and 60s. Max plays all of the instruments on this set, members of his band sitting in on only four tracks, demonstrating his virtuosity on guitar, harp and piano, and if that is not enough, he is also blessed with a tough blues voice that is ideally suited to his chosen genre, whilst also writing all of the tracks on this set.
Max opens with You Got Me Walkin' On All Three Legs, a classic Chi-Town shuffle replete with rolling
piano and some wonderful harp; his harp again well to the fore, laying down the infectious riff that drives
Think Before You Jump, a Wang-Wang Doodle styled Wolf blues permeated with tantalizing
Sumlinesque guitar. There is a dark Hoochie Coochie feel, fed by a pulsing bass line, to If You Had To
Live My Life (You'd Be In Your Grave By Now), Max's dramatic vocals mirrored by his harp and piano,
the Muddy feel extended to the intense Little Girl, a churning harp fired shuffle replete with brooding
guitar.
There are shades of Piazza and William Clarke evident in the menacing victim Of Passion; George Smith
comes to mind on the moody Tell Me Why; Gary Shaw's slide guitar and Max's moaned vocals invest
The Sweetest Little Apple with a strong Red Rooster feel; whilst it is Guitar Slim who comes to mind
on the melancholy Christmas In The Jailhouse, Max's wailing harp and the nod towards Wolf's rendition
of Sitting On Top Of The World adding the Windy city feel that permeates all of Max's blues. (Available at CD Baby)

Illustrating Oshkosh 1875 Through A Family Related Murder Tale
A research project for Mr. Pollack's English 3 Honors class: This video describes the Oshkosh of 1875, more famously coined as sawdust city. The story is told of a man named Calvin Gross, who was the first recorded murder victim in Oshkosh History. Gross's murder lives on in Oshkosh as part of the local Rocking Chair Murder legend. As the title implies, this project illustrates how the story of Gross's murder can serve as a symbol to describe the city of Oshkosh in 1875.

Around the Corner with John McGivern | Program | Oshkosh (#404)
[Latest Airdate: September 7, 2017]
[Original Airdate: January 29, 2015]
Overachieving. That’s what the “O” in Oshkosh stands for! Yep, we found the famous stuff in Oshkosh that all Wisconsinites know about - EAA, Hughes Chocolates, Silver Star Brands (Miles Kimball), Oshkosh Truck. But then we were introduced (by our dear friend Amy Leach) to Julie’s Touch of Silver (so NOT what you’re thinking), Lakeside Plastics (NOT producing what you expect) and Ardy & Ed’s (EXACTLY what you long for!). Maybe you do know that Oshkosh is on the largest inland lake in the state and is home to the Miss Wisconsin Pageant every year. But unless you live there, you have never seen an overachieving YMCA like this before!
We promise: this episode is going to surprise you. It sure surprised John. The city has changed and grown some since his college days spent at the U of Oshkosh. Hmm… 40 years can do that, John!
