Out of compassion,Salty Kidz is born

I n the 23 years I’ve livedand worked in Charles-ton, one of saddest reali-

ties I’ve heard over and overare children who live herebut have never been to thebeach.

Never been to the beach?!One is within 20 miles of

nearly anywhere a kid livesin this town.

Not only should childrenhave a chance to play in thesand, frolic in the gentle surfand smell the salt air at leastonce, but they should bemaking fairly regular visitsto truly the greatest parkswe have to offer.

Also having mulled overthe obesity epidemic forboth professional and per-sonal reasons, I’ve come tobelieve that a componentof it is our disconnectionwith nature and being out-doors — for both kids andadults.

Consistently, I’ve equatedthe indoors with inactivity(and overeating) and out-doors with activity.

Studies back it up (seewww.whitehutchinson.com for a rundown), andmuch of it is summed up ina new book, “The NaturePrincipal: Human Restora-tion and the End of Na-ture-Deficit Disorder” by

Richard Louv, the author ofthe best-selling “Last Childin the Woods.”

Salty KidzSo the creation of a new

local charity, Salty Kidz,caught my eye recently.

The charity, which is notcurrently a nonprofit, is thebrainchild of Dan Yost, a27-year-old kayak guide forCoastal Expeditions.

Yost sees the connectionbetween developing a love ofan active, outdoors lifestylewith being healthy and hap-py and wants to work withlocal nonprofits, outfittersand others to help get thekids who don’t get out to getout. We’re talking kids whotend to be at greater risk ofbeing obese.

The Salty Kidz missionstatement is: “To provide theopportunity to enjoy water

sports and the natural beautyof the Lowcountry to eco-nomically challenged youthin the Charleston area.”

Of course, for them to seesome green, Yost has to raisea little green. His first shotat that was a kickoff partySaturday at Crosby’s Sea-food on Folly Road.

Paddle & surfBut Yost is not waiting for

the funding to get going.He already is working

with another well-knownnonprofit, Louie’s Kids, toprovide a three-day-a-weekcamp for children throughAug. 11. The program willbe an introduction to watersports and focus on exerciseand fitness.

Plans also are under wayfor surf camps noon-4 p.m.Saturdays at 14th Streetnear The Washout on FollyBeach. He needs experi-enced surfers to volunteer.

If you want to help out,contact Yost at [email protected] or 254-7298.To read more, go to www.saltykidz.blogspot.com.

A summer respiteI’ll return to my events-

driven column next week.Despite a short summer

slowdown, the schedulecranks back up in the com-ing weeks with the Isle ofPalms Beach Run andCremator 50 on HiltonHead Island on July 23, theFight for Air Climb at theNorth Charleston Coliseumon July 30 and CharlestonSprint Triathlon Series No. 4on July 31, not to mention ajam-packed August.

‘Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2’BY CHRISTY LEMIREAP Movie Critic

If last year’s “Harry Potterand the Deathly Hal-lows: Part 1” marked the

beginning of the end witha gripping feeling of doomand gloom, “Harry Potterand the Deathly Hallows:Part 2” wraps things uponce and for all on a note ofmelancholy.

Oh, it’s dramatic, to besure: gorgeous, somberand startling as the youngwizard faces his destinyand fights the evil LordVoldemort. But the end ofthis staggeringly successfulmovie franchise, an epicfantasy saga spanning eightfilms over the past decade,provides a necessary emo-tional catharsis for Harryand for us. Even those whoaren’t ardent Potterphiles,who aren’t waiting in a linearound the theater withtheir homemade wandsand hand-drawn lightningscars, might find them-selves getting unexpect-edly choked up a couple oftimes.

That’s always been the realmagic of the series, basedon J.K. Rowling’s novels:that mixture of the exoticand the everyday, the oth-erworldly and the utterlyrelatable.

No longer the innocentchildren they were whenthey entered Hogwarts,Harry, Ron and Hermioneare growing up and movingon, and so must we. Thatthe future of the wizardworld hangs in the balancein this final installment isonly part of the tale.

Still, director David Yateshas accomplished the diffi-cult task of bringing it all toa close in satisfying fashion.Having directed the lastfour of the eight films, Yates

has provided a momentumand cohesion to the “HarryPotter” canon, which hasgotten progressively darkerand more mature.

And Steve Kloves, who’swritten all but one of thescreenplays in the series,has once again risen to thechallenge of trying to pleasepurists and casual viewersalike in adapting Rowling’srevered writing.

It’s hard to imagine howcomplicated this must havebeen, given the density ofthe mythology, even thoughthe final book was dividedinto two films. (Althoughthe epilogue, which featuressome of the main charactersdecked out in grown-upmakeup, does seem a bitcheesy and hasty and itmight inspire a few giggles.)

At the same time, becauseit took two films to depictthe action in the last in-stallment, this second halfdoesn’t feel overstuffed oroverlong.

It moves with great ur-gency toward the finalshowdown between Harry(Daniel Radcliffe) andVoldemort (Ralph Fiennes,deeply disturbing as usual);danger infuses every mo-ment, and it never overstaysits welcome.

Much of that has to dowith the look of the film,both in its attention to in-ventive detail and to thesweeping, elaborate setpieces.

The cinematography fromEduardo Serra, who alsoshot “Deathly Hallows:Part 1,” is once again richlyominous and beautifullybleak. Here, Hogwarts isn’ta warm, bustling place fullof possibilities but rather afearsome fortress swarmingwith Death Eaters, whereProfessor Severus Snape(the deliciously icy Alan

Rickman) rules as if leadinghis own fascist regime.

Yes, “Deathly Hallows:Part 2” is in 3-D (it’s theonly installment in theseries to be presented thatway) and as usual, that wasunnecessary. The technicalelements all looked flawlessand immersive in the pre-vious film. (Warner Bros.wisely chose not to rushthe conversion from 2-Don “Deathly Hallows: Part1,” and instead took moretime for the process here.)But the addition of a thirddimension does allow somedetails to pop, and it’s nevera distraction.

Although the “Potter”films have always beenabout the escape of thespectacle, the kids and theirstruggle to navigate bothgood and evil providessome much-needed rooting

in reality.Radcliffe has never been

better, and brief flashbacksto the earliest images ofhim in the role only serve asa reminder of how far he’scome. The character haslong since been cementedinto his identity, but more isrequired of him physicallyand emotionally than everbefore, and he’s more thanup for it all.

“Deathly Hallows: Part 2”drops us into a menacingversion of this world we’vecome to know, immediatelyand without explanation;it’s a bit disorienting at first,even if you’ve seen all that’scome before it. Then again,if you’re bothering to checkout the finale, in theory youshould know what’s goingon.

Harry, Ron (Rupert Grint)and Hermione (Emma

Watson) are still huntingHorcruxes, scattered con-tainers that hold pieces ofVoldemort’s soul, which arecrucial to Harry’s survival,in order to destroy them.

One of them is be-ing stored in BellatrixLestrange’s bank vault,which allows Helena Bon-ham Carter to have a bit offun with her wicked char-acter. Hogwarts is no longera place of refuge as Volde-mort draws ever closer; hisattack on the stately schoolis thrilling, but it also pro-vides moments of heroismfor some characters youmight not expect.

Still, this is the placewhere all the narrative andemotional threads mustconverge and tie up at last.

While “Deathly Hallows:Part 2” offers long-prom-ised answers, it also dares

to pose some eternal ques-tions, and it’ll stay with youafter the final chapter hasclosed.

Final film is sad and satisfying

Elliott (Henry Thomas) rides away from the police toget E.T. back to the forest in the movie “E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial.”


with chef NathanThurston of TheOcean Room atKiawah Island

BY ANGEL POWELLSpecial to The Post and Courier

W ell into his thirdyear at The OceanRoom at Kiawah

Island, chef Nathan Thurstoncontinues to impress dinerswith his creativity and com-mitment to local produce.

I recently tried one of Thur-ston’s new dishes, GeechieBoy Mill’s “Big Grits,” andwas blown away! First of all,the dish is incredibly beauti-

ful. Beyond that, though, thegrits are amazing. The tex-ture is a cross between gritsand risotto, which makes forcreamy deliciousness.

I was able to sit down withThurston to discuss this latestcreation:

Q: When did you startworking with Geechie Boyand how did you hear aboutthem?

A: I started working withGreg Johnsman with GeechieBoy Mills about two yearsago. Greg and I really hit itoff.

Q: What makes their gritsspecial?

A: First of all, Greg is veryparticular about the corn heuses — only the best. Next,he has sourced equipmentfrom the early 1900s thatputs a texture on them that’sperfect.

Q: Is this your first timeworking with okra flowers?

A: Yes, this was the firsttime. I remember seeing

them growing up on farms inthe south but never consid-ered them to be edible.

Q: How did you decidewhat to do with them?

A: After doing some re-search, I could not find a sin-gle recipe, procedure or men-tion of preparing okra flowersto be eaten. So I just startedcooking them. I started withdelicate techniques such asraw, steaming and poachingin a beurre monte. After that,I tried grilling them and,believe it or not, frying them.After all my experimentation,I concluded that the beurremonte poached and tempura-fried techniques showcasedthe most flavor and appear-ance.

Q: What is your favoritething about this dish?

A: First of all, the pickledokra, okra flowers, tomatoesand grits were all procuredby Geechie Boys Mills. Un-intentionally, it ended up ashomage to the “Geechie Boy.”Also, to me it’s a true testa-ment to Southern cuisine. Idisagree with the phrase that“the South will rise again.”The South has already risenin the modern culinaryrealm, and we will continueto re-create the recipes thatwe were taught by our el-ders.

Q: Tell me about the prepa-ration.

A: The grits are cookedtraditionally yet stirred moreoften, like a risotto technique,the heirloom grape andcherry tomatoes are blanchedand peeled, and the okraflowers are poached lightlyin a beurre monte. The Bur-den Creek goat cheese is justcrumbled.

L eaf is an appropriatename for a restaurantthat literally has grown

a new restaurant at a oncepopular location.

Leaf is also an appropriatemetaphor for a restaurant:Just as a tree’s leaf is a photo-synthetic factory providingfuel for the tree’s growth, arestaurant is also a factorybringing raw materials intothe back of the house anddelivering complete meals tothe front of the house.

And as is the case at LeafCafe + Bar, a solitary treeprovides shade and shelterto the patio at Market andBeaufain Streets. With itsrough-hewn chairs andrustic decor, this little oasisis like a tree house in themiddle of the city.

Al fresco diningTake a step into the spa-

cious bar and witness thetransformation from theformer Vickery’s restaurant.See the light, if you will.

With whitewashed walls,bold arches and spectacularcolumns, Leaf is a com-manding presence. Casualsophistication marks the bararea. The copper-topped barsoon will be wearing its pa-tina of age and commerce. Acommunity table is the rightsize for meeting and greet-ing, and the icons of sweettea, shrimp, watermelon andboiled peanuts are freeze-framed in poster art, addinga local elaboration to theminimalist decor.

The dining room flanksthe outdoor patio with awall of French doors, andthe room bears witness toBeaufain Street with a seriesof nearly floor-to-ceiling

windows. A raised diningarea is perfect for larger par-ties and comes equippedwith a drink ledge just wait-ing for your Hendrick’s ginand tonic. This static spaceis brought into motion bythe strategic hanging ofprints of people and petsairborne on a canvas ofbright blue.

The restaurant was so fullystaffed at the time of ourvisit that you felt as if eachtable had its own personalwaiter.

Frickles to crab cakesThe menu is designed to

appeal to all appetites fromthe bar side to the tableside with meat and cheeseboards (MP), house-friedpickles called “frickles” ($5)and an assortment of dips inwhich you create your owntrio ($7), as well as steaks($23), crab cakes ($18) andpastas ($12, $14).

Chef John Zucker (CruCafe and Catering) providedconsulting services prelimi-nary to the restaurant open-ing. The kitchen is staffedby chef Ross Webb, a JamesBeard Foundation scholar-ship winner and formersous chef at Red Drum Res-taurant.

The menu is nicely pricedwith entrees in the $12-$18range, steaks excepted.Sandwiches travel the globe.Bite into a chicken pita ($8),po’ boy ($9), boccadillo ($9),burger ($9) and vegetarianoptions of portobello ($9)and vegetable flat bread ($8).

Timing is everythingIn general, the kitchen has

not yet nailed its timing.Dishes came out too fast ortoo slow. For some tables, itwas express dining; for oth-ers, an exercise in patience.

An appetizer of mussels

mariniere ($9) arrived at thetable full of plump shellfish,but their broth of whitewine, garlic, shallots andherb butter could have ben-efitted from more time onthe heat to marry the flavorsand anoint the crustaceanswith taste.

A starter of tomato soup($5) was served, and fasterthan you could say “Wad-malaw,” the chicken entreewas pecking at the appetizer.

A plate was prepped withpotato puree, collards andportobello Marsala gravy,and while they chilled andthe “gravy” congealed, anicely flavored meatloafslice was placed on the grillas the vegetables turned coldawaiting the entree. A simi-lar fate befell a boneless half-chicken (actually a boneless,flattened chicken breast).The plate was prepped withvegetables and waited on the

line for the poultry. All easyto fix but frustrating for thediner.

Desserts will changedaily. A blackberry mousse($7) seemed right for theseason, and its presenta-tion was clever: a peachbottom, topped with gela-tin-enhanced mousse anda garnish of coconut shav-ings. The other optionsof lava cake, creme bruleeand chocolate mousse cakespoke to another season.

There is no denying thesylvan setting for Leaf Cafe+ Bar. I am betting this sap-ling of a restaurant willbranch out with precisionin its cooking, an improvedsense of staffing and a re-finement of its food pair-ings. Add some culinaryroots and this specimen willthrive in the garden of res-taurants that call Charlestonhome.

O ne can only marvelat the curative pow-ers possessed by the

’Wich Doctor. The antidotefor your appetite? Definitely.

Just feast your eyes on therestaurant’s sizable sam-mies, piled high on toast andbrimming with any numberof exceptional ingredients:pork belly, lemongrass beef,Korean barbecue and house-smoked pastrami.

Housed at the cozy addresson Folly Beach formerly oc-cupied by Lil’ Mama’s andKirby’s Cafe, the ’Wich Doc-tor opened shop in March.

The beach clientele oftencan be swayed by the CenterStreet offerings, but here’shoping they make their wayto the ’Wich Doctor instead.They won’t be let down.

The fried pork belly sand-wich ($10), for instance,

contains tomato, shredsof cabbage and a brilliantsunny-side up egg, all lodgedbetween slices of Texas toast.It’s a certifiable double fister.

There’s another pair ofAsian-inspired dishes, too:Korean BBQ and kimchee($9), served Bulgogi styleas thin, marinated cuts ofbeef; and the Hanoi hoagie($8.50) with lemongrass beefand dipping sauce.

Continuing around theglobe, the Caribbean-flavored jerk pork ($9) is

dished up with plantains,mango ketchup and grilledscallions.

The ’Wich Doctor evenhas the Hot Brown, a favor-ite sandwich hailing fromLouisville, Ky., containingturkey, bacon, tomato andMornay sauce.

The ’Wich Doctor dedi-cates the second portion ofits menu to a selection of12-inch pizzas ($11-$14),including a few touched-upclassics: Italian sausage withbroccoli, onion and ricottacheese; and pepperoni withjalapenos.

Also available: Creolecrawfish, including an-douille sausage, peppers,onions, provolone cheeseand pickled okra; and whiteclam made from a garlicbutter base, and ricotta andparmesan cheeses.

With Justin Litoborski,bartender for The Millin Park CircleBY DENISE K. JAMESSpecial to The Post and Courier

T he Mill, located in ParkCircle, is known for fea-turing some awesome

musical acts. During the downtime, it’s a premier wateringhole for the neighborhood.

Bartender Justin Litoborskitold us what beers to pair withthe food, and how he inventedhis signature shot.

Q: How did you come totend bar at the Mill?

A: I’ve known the ownersince before he even opened it.Before I worked here, I used tobe a cook, but I prefer bartend-ing. I’ve managed the kitchenat Madra Rua, and I also

cooked at Fish.Q: What is The Mill’s main

charm?A: I’d just call us a neighbor-

hood dive bar. We mainly getlocals, which is nice.

Q: What’s the drink list like?A: We’ve got more than a

hundred bottled beers, a lot ofcraft beers. We also serve a lotof shots.

Q: Did you create any of theshots?

A: Yeah. The one called OldCrow. It’s just a straight shotof Old Crow whiskey. I drinkso much of it, they put it onthe list as “my” shot!

Q: What drink is mostpopular?

A: I’d have to say Sambuca.It’s a neighborhood favorite.One of the old daytime bar-tenders used to order shots ofit for everyone at the bar, and Ithink folks got used to drink-ing it.

Q: If I asked you to mix mesomething, what would youmake?

A: Probably the S’Moresmartini. It can be a mixed

drink, or a shot. It has vanillavodka, caramel vodka, Bailey’sand Frangelico. It’s also toppedwith marshmallows.

Q: What is the menu likehere?

A: Mostly bar food: We havenachos, wraps, quesadillas andburgers.

Q: What do you recom-mend?

A: I like the chicken baconand ranch wrap.

Q: What pairings betweena drink and a menu item canyou suggest?

A: I’d probably pair the wrapwith a Ranger beer. We’realways switching up the list,though.

FuturebirdsTonight at The PourHouse

Athens-based Americanasextet Futurebirds has neverprided itself on being a tech-savvy band with a sleek, in-novative sound that wouldchange the way you thoughtabout music.

Instead, Futurebirdssounds more like the oldtried-and-true music of theSouth carrying on to a newgeneration. As its namesuggests, it takes the oldest,most natural form to trans-port itself into the future.

The band has a gritty andloud guitar-driven soundas well as equally grittyvocals.

The sound is psychedeliccountry, perfect in a road-house bar.

Futurebirds will performtonight at The Pour House,1977 Maybank Highway,

with Old You and Eddiethe Wheel. Tickets are $10and are available at thedoor or online at www.etix.com. Doors open at 9 p.m.Call 571-4343 or visit www.charlestonpourhouse.comfor more information.

Gaslight StreetSaturday at The PourHouse

Led by former Live Oakfront man Campbell Brown,local quartet Gaslight Streetpulls from influences rang-ing from soul and blues toclassic rock and folk to forman all-encompassing soundthat represents decades ofSouthern music from a vari-ety of different origins.

Gaslight Street offers asoundtrack to life in theLowcountry that seems toreflect the influences ofCharleston’s long history.

The band recently cel-ebrated the release of its lat-est album, “Idle Speed,” inFebruary.

Gaslight Street will per-

form Saturday at The PourHouse, 1977 MaybankHighway, with Actual Proofand Gangrene Machine.Tickets are $8 in advance,$10 the day of the show andare available at the door oronline at www.etix.com.Doors open at 8 p.m., showstarts at 8:45 p.m. Call 571-4343 or visit www.charles-tonpourhouse.com for moreinformation.

Sunny LedfurdSaturday atThe Windjammer

Sunny Ledfurd is a man ofpersistence. When every la-bel he contacted throughoutthe early part of the 2000sturned him down, he cre-ated his own label.

When he had trouble find-ing a good studio close tohis home, he built his own.When the suits told himto tone down his lyricalcontent, he made it moregraphic.

From the beginning, theNorth Carolina-based sing-

er and songwriter was seton being completely honestwith himself as well as hisaudience.

“I wasn’t going to be amonkey on a string singingsongs about falling in love,broken hearts and drinkin’ asix pack. I was chasing girlsand getting hammered,”says Ledfurd on his Myspacepage.

Musically, Ledfurd’s styleis a broad collection that hasinfluenced the songwriterover the years and includescountry, hard rock and hip-hop.

Ledfurd says that his songsare “about 90 percent auto-biographical” and focus onthe underbelly of Southernliving and culture.

He will perform Saturdayat The Windjammer, 1007Ocean Blvd., Isle of Palms,with Luke Kaufman. Ticketsare $8 in advance, $10 theday of the show and can bepurchased at the door or on-line at www.the-windjam-mer.com. Call 886-8596 forinformation.

C harleston is slowly,but surely, takingits rightful place as

one of America’s great jazztowns. All the markers areemerging.

There is a steadily grow-ing number of fine, youngmusicians. There is someform of instruction at areaschools — middle, high anduniversity. There are moreand more opportunitiesto consume jazz, of all themyriad styles.

There’s an expanding con-stituency of savvy listenerswho are buying tickets andgoing to venues in droves.

There’s a buzz about theCharleston jazz scene inmusician communities inother jazz strongholds suchas Atlanta, New Orleans, Sa-vannah, Columbia, Chicago,Charlotte and New York.

Then there’s support infra-structure that doesn’t exist,as far as I know, in manyother places in the country.There’s an eight-year-old re-search project, the Charles-ton Jazz Initiative, based atthe College of Charlestonthat explores the historyand legacy of the art form inSouth Carolina. Jazz Artistsof Charleston, a three-year-old presenting group, putson shows of all kinds year-round.

I know from whence Ispeak. As I wrote here be-fore, I’m a principal in bothnonprofit groups. That posi-tions me to not so much blowmy own horn, if you will, orpromote the organizations,but being involved givesme an inside look that I canshare with you.

Another sign of thetimes is the number ofsoundtracks in public build-ings that use jazz. My cur-rent favorite is Monza, apizza joint on King Street.The Meeting Street PigglyWiggly, which I wrote abouta couple of years ago, is stillgoing strong, too.

We don’t have a jazz clubright now, but from time totime, the Music Farm andthe Pour House bring intop-notch stuff. Restaurants,pubs and lounges are full oflive jazz.

The fastest rising star onthe local landscape is theCharleston Jazz Orchestra,a 20-piece aggregation thatcomprises all local players.The home for its six-showseason is a beautiful build-ing that sits in the middle ofJohn Street between Kingand Meeting streets, rightin the heart of one of themost historic districts in theUnited States.

Over the course of the 3½years that CJO has been

holding forth there, themagnificent room has cometo be known to jazz fans asthe House of Swing.

And swing it does.The 1,000-seat palace has

near perfect acoustics andpristine sight lines. You cansee clearly from any seat inthe house. You can hear thefaintest, high-pitched notefrom a singer or the rumbleof a big band with no distor-tion.

The Charleston Music Hallis a concert hall par excel-lence.

And a concert hall like itis a prerequisite for a city tocall itself a jazz town. Jazz isart and it’s entertainment.So it’s just as important thatit be presented in a concertformat as it is to be offeredin clubs and restaurants.

CJO has sold out its firststhree concerts this year,with the last two being soldout before the day of theshow. The second half of theseason seems poised to con-tinue the trend.

The structure has a veryinteresting history. It’s of-ficial history reads: “37 JohnStreet was originally namedThe Tower Depot, designedby Charleston architectEdward C. Jones and builtbetween 1849 and 1850. TheGothic Revival style build-ing originally had a three-story tower, which projectedinto John Street and servedas the main entrance fora passenger depot for theSouth Carolina Railroad.Sadly, the original tower wasdestroyed in the earthquakeof 1886 and subsequently,The Tower Depot becamepart of the Charleston Bag-ging & ManufacturingCompany plant and wasused as a warehouse formany years. Finally, theBennett Hofford Companyfacilitated its amazing trans-formation into the Charles-ton Music Hall in 1995.”

Mike Bennett, Hank Hof-ford and Daren Wolfe, man-ager, have one of the mostunusual concert halls in the

country, and they’ve gra-ciously allowed the famedlandmark to anchor theLowcountry’s jazz scene.

The Lincoln Center JazzOrchestra, led by WyntonMarsalis, has performedthere. So have Taj Mahal,Chris Botti, Fred Wesley,Herbie Hancock and otherjazz luminaries.

For us here in Charleston,the music hall is as impor-tant as Aeolian Hall in NewYork City was in 1924 whenthe Paul Whiteman Orches-tra gave the first jazz perfor-mance in a concert hall.

CJO is doing at our Houseof Swing what the BennyGoodman Orchestra did in1938 and what Duke Elling-ton’s Orchestra did in 1943,both at Carnegie Hall.

Making jazz history.

Village Tavern to host benefit concert for children’s centerBY CAROLINE O’[email protected]

Music acts Ascend-ing Heights, Broth-er, Tyler Boone and

Myer will perform in a ben-efit concert for the Callen-Lacey Center for Childrenon Sunday. Hosting theevent is the Village Tavern,and all proceeds will go tothe Callen-Lacey Centerfor Children, an emergencycenter serving childrenand families in BerkeleyCounty.

In 1998, the Callen-LaceyCenter opened in responseto a need identified by theTrident United Way NeedsAssessment. “Children in

crisis” was considered atop priority, so the Berke-ley County Department ofSocial Services and TridentUnited Way asked CarolinaYouth Development Centerto establish a center to servethe children of Berkeley

County. The Moncks Cornershelter seeks to provide “a se-cure, protective and nurtur-ing environment for abused,abandoned and neglectedchildren.”

The center is open 24 hoursa day and accepts childrenup to age 17.

Over the years, the Cal-len-Lacey Center has offereda safe place and home formore than 800 children inthe same spirit as Dr. Wil-liam H. Lacey and Maude E.Callen. Due to the guidanceand care they provided thecommunity for more than 50years, the center is dedicatedin their memory and contin-ues to offer support throughthe center’s advisory council

consisting of volunteersfocused on community out-reach projects.

Boone planned the benefitconcert to raise awarenessabout the center. This isthe sixth benefit Boone hasorganized, and he chose thecenter based on his family’srecommendation.

“This benefit came to me

on Easter Day, when I washanging out with my familyon Folly Beach,” explainedBoone. “I wanted this eventto be for an organizationthat isn’t known as muchin Charleston, to help themgrow and to make them feelwelcomed in our amazingtown.”

His mother suggested the

Callen-Lacey Center becauseshe was familiar with the or-ganization through her workin the school district.

“My mother informed meabout how a lot of childrenat her school came from thishouse and how it would be anew and a great opportunityto help another group ofpeople,” Boone said.

Local R&B singer gains successBY CAITLIN O’[email protected]

I nderia “Indy” Saundershas always wanted noth-ing more than to perform.

But little did she know howsoon herdreamswould be-gin to takeshape.

Lauded asSouth Car-olina’s firstteen sensa-tion, thelocal R&Bsinger from Mount Pleasantis making waves with perfor-mances across the state andan album slated to be releasedthis fall.

The 13-year-old, who willenter the ninth grade atWando High School this fall,fell in love with music at ayoung age while performingin choirs at Jennie MooreElementary School and WordMinistry Church.

“In third grade, I got myfirst solo for a chorus songat school,” Indy said. “I waskind of shy at first, but I loos-ened up once I got going.”

Just this year, Indy

signed with record labelGroundtroops Entertain-ment and recorded her firstalbum, “Spoiled Little Girl,”including all-original music.

Her first live performancewas at Charleston’s BlackExpo in March, at which shedanced and sang her single,“Dress Like Me.”

“I was nervous when I gotup there and saw everyone,”she said. “But it was definitelymemorable.”

Most recently, Indy hascrisscrossed the state, per-forming at a car and bikeshow in Sumter, a teen jam atthe National Guard Armoryin Lake City and openingfor Universal Soul Circus inColumbia. June was markedby a performance of the na-tional anthem at a CharlestonRiverDogs game, and she isscheduled to open for BustaRhymes and Big Boi on Sun-day.

In conjunction with the re-lease of her first album, Indyalso will launch a charitycalled “Indy Cares,” aimed atgiving back to her local com-munity.

“I want people to be in thesame predicament I am in, Iwant the best for them so I’m

going to help them the best Ican,” she said.

Coupled with the Make-A-Wish foundation, Indy willwork to fulfill the wishes oftwo terminally ill children.She also will collect anddonate books and other sup-plies to the teen nonviolencemovement beginning aroundthe time school starts. Thecharity will continue to growand change as Indy works herway through the industry.

While Indy has thus farbeen able to successfully bal-ance her passion for musicand her schoolwork, she doesanticipate that it will becomemore difficult as she transi-tions into a new high schoolschedule.

“It’s going to get crazy,” shesaid, noting that she hopes tobecome involved with Wan-do’s chorus program.

Though still young, Indysaid she has no intention ofslowing down and has set hersights on eventually perform-ing in Atlanta and New York.

“My voice has changed, it’sgotten better and more ma-ture, but I haven’t changedas a person,” Indy said. “Themusic is getting wiser andbigger.”

JAMES O’MARAElvis Costello has been making music since the ’70s and is considered to be a rock legend. See him Monday in North Charleston.

Rock legend brings tour to LowcountryBY MATTHEW WEYERSSpecial to The Post and Courier

E lvis Costello is king.Or, so it says on thecover of his first al-

bum.It may have seemed like a

boisterous exclamation backin 1977, after all, there wasanother Elvis around with

that title, but with the pas-sage of time, this claim hasproven itself to be a predic-tion as much as it is a proc-lamation.

On Monday, Costellois coming to the NorthCharleston Performing ArtsCenter with his band, theImposters, to once more layclaim to his crown.

Not very often in life doessomeone find himself in thepresence of royalty. ElvisCostello is deserving of suchranking. He has been nomi-nated for 13 Grammys, win-ning once and received anOscar nomination in 2003for best original song. Alsoin 2003, Elvis Costello & theAttractions were inducted

into the Rock and Roll Hallof Fame.

There are scant few musi-cians who can be consideredlegends. The main criteriaare impact, influence, pro-ductivity and time. Scouringthe annals of rock history,one might find many artistswho managed to meet twoor three of these measures.

It is a short list of nameswho possess all four.

HistoryFrom his beginnings

with the Attractions as apunky/pub rock impresario,it was obvious to many thatCostello was in command of

BY KEVIN YOUNGSpecial to The Post andCourier

Remember the date: July17. That’s the day the Gal-liard Auditorium will be vis-ited by two of hip-hop’s best.

That night, the self-proclaimed “dungeondragon” Busta Rhymes andOutkast’s Big Boi will visit.

For the hip-hop fan, itrepresentsthe rare mo-ment thattwo certi-fied legendswith twovery differ-ent styleswill sharethe stage inCharleston.

While Busta is touring insupport of his upcomingalbum, “Extinction LevelEvent 2,” a sequel to his 1998classic, Big Boi is touringon the strength of last year’ssuccessful “Sir Lucious LeftFoot: The Son of ChicoDusty.”

Rather than run down thehistory of these two legends,here are a few gems aboutthem.

Busta RhymesBefore joining Leaders

of the New School in 1989,Trevor Tahiem Smith Jr.was given the stage nameBusta Rhymes by PublicEnemy’s leader Chuck D.

While he gained popular-ity through his work with

◗

◗

Leaders, it was his thunder-ous final verse in A TribeCalled Quest’s posse cut of“Scenario” that cementedhis hardcore rhyme status.

Big BoiWhen “MTV Cribs” was at

its pinnacle, one of the show’shighlights was Big Boi’s tourof his Atlanta house. Asidefrom the usual tour of spa-cious rooms and other ex-travagant luxuries, it was thestripper pole in his “BoomBoom” room that caughtmost viewers’ attention.

In May, Big Boi went intothe studio to help ModestMouse record its next album,a project he called “a hodge-podge of funkiness.”

Aside from his role in theOutkast musical “Idlewild”and his guest appearance asa rap artist in “Law & Or-der: Special Victim’s Unit,”Big Boi recently appearedin Morgan Spurlock’sdocumentary “The GreatestMovie Ever Sold.” In it, heweighed in on the blurringlines between corporate in-terests and art.

◗

◗

a special set of skills. Whilehe poignantly captured theprevailing angst of his era,he also displayed a literacythat is uncommon in popu-lar music.

He did not repeat versesunnecessarily. He did notrhyme without reason. Hislyrics told stories, some-times biting, sometimes hu-morous, always coherent.

With an elastic and evoca-tive voice and some of thetightest backing bandsaround, Costello was a sen-sation in the late ’70s andthroughout the ’80s, whenevery release seemed to setthe bar higher for a standardpop song.

Although he traveledmostly on the second rungof fame, he did manage toscore two No. 1 U.S. singles,“Veronica,” written withPaul McCartney, and “TheOther Side of Summer” in1988 and 1989. His distinctstyle, clean production andsomewhat bass-heavy music,was a staple of alternativeand college rock radio.

SuccessAs times changed, so did

Costello’s music. He wasable to make the leap for-ward that many of his con-temporaries were unable tobridge.

As if always compelled totravel elsewhere, he record-ed a cover album of countrysongs in 1981. His stunningalbum, “King of America,”may be the first and bestexample of original musicby a British singer playingAmericana and created atemplate that Wilco, RyanAdams and scores of othersare familiar with.

As a solo artist and withthe Attractions, Costellodabbled in mod rhythm& blues, high-gloss ’80sproduction, angry politicalfolk and Beatles pastiche.He even recorded an albumwhere he was backed by astring quartet.

Costello has had some ofhis greatest success teamingup with respected musiciansin genres outside the con-temporary pop landscape.His work with the Brodsky

Quartet, Burt Bacharachand, more recently, AllenToussaint showcase a talentadept wherever it may land.He also has done piano jazz,orchestrations and the one-off hip-hop creation “TheBridge I Burned,” whereinhe samples the Prince song“Pop Life.” It is this varietythat has maintained his rel-evance for so long. Coupledwith his output — a stagger-ing 32 studio albums andcounting — it becomes clearthat Costello carries muchmore gravitas than is easilyrecognized. Few artists re-lease more than one albumevery two or three years.

On top of his gameMany acts will combine

a few years of fame with alifetime of regurgitation, butCostello continues to be pro-

ductive long into the twilightof a lesser artist’s career.

He easily could tour ona greatest hits revue, andrecent set lists do have himdabbling in his many genresand biggest songs. There isalso a purpose to this tour.He is coming to town insupport of a new album,“National Ransom.”

This highly rated release isan example of what the manis and was. Half of the al-bum contains rocking num-bers very much in the At-tractions style. The other is acollection of jazz, blues andEnglish music hall all toldwith Costello’s unique nar-rative. In fact, it is in thesenumbers where he shows hisbrilliance for observationand introspection. Whilenew in composition, theyecho a time long since past,

as if he could take centerstage in a ’20s New Orleansspeakeasy and not one notewould be out of place.

It might be speculated thatfamiliarity is the truest ene-my of creativity. But Costellois always exploring new ter-ritory, taking himself out ofhis comfort zone. When hestretches, he soars. He hasdone so time and time again.

Besides producing some ofthe most critically acclaimedalbums of the past three de-cades, he also has done someacting, even appearing ashimself in an episode of “TheSimpsons.”

Whether or not Costellois in fact king is open to de-bate. That he is rock-’n’-rollnobility is not in question.That he is coming to NorthCharleston should be reasonto rejoice.

Natives and visitorsalike will be treatedto a feast for the eyes,

and mouth, at the sixthannual Palette & PalateStroll, hosted Friday by theCharleston Fine Art DealersAssociation.

From 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.,participants will have thechance to visit 10 local gal-leries paired with food bylocal restaurants in an eventmeant to raise awarenessand funds for local art.

CFADA began in 1999 as acollaboration between art-ists and gallery owners todevelop Charleston as a finearts destination while alsosupporting local arts educa-tion programs.

“It’s a two-fold issue, start-ed initially as a way to pullenergies and power togetherto have the rest of the worldunderstand Charleston hasbeen an arts destination forcenturies,” said Lese Cor-rigan, owner of CorriganGallery. “It has developedinto more of a fundraisingventure while also bringingattention to art and the im-portance of arts educationfor its survival.”

To date, they have donated$245,000 from the Palette &Palate Stroll and the yearlyFine Art Annual in the fall.

“I think this is an eventthat marries two ofCharleston’s best attributes,the culinary and the finearts,” said Hume Killian,owner of the Wells Galleryand a founding member ofCFADA. “Both have stronghistories and are great rea-sons why many people cometo Charleston.”

Often, art and food con-noisseurs tend to be one inthe same, said Cindy Hayes,president of CFADA andco-owner of Horton Hayes

Fine Art. But for those par-ticularly attracted to thefood, the stroll serves as away to introduce them, aswell as other visitors, to thegalleries available down-town.

“People get exposure andsome come back at a laterdate,” she said. “It’s aboutgetting people aware of yourgallery, what art you haveand things they like. Downthe road, they rememberyou.”

The event showcases morethan 100 professional art-ists displaying work at theevent, but equally signifi-cant are the young artists inthe community in need ofsupport and funding. Themajority of funds raised willbenefit CFADA’s fine artsscholarship, which is splitamong the Gibbes Museumof Art, Redux and Collegeof Charleston.

The donations are given inthe form of gift certificatesfor art supplies, Hayes said,at a time when the arts of-ten are pushed aside as thewallet tightens.

“Everyone in the artscommunity realizes thateducation is a major part ofthe puzzle,” Killian said. “Ifyou don’t have young kidsexposed, you won’t haveanother generation of cre-ators. People who live herehave a wide array of talent,and we’re trying to help thatalong.”

Kathryn Hartle, directorof sales and marketing forBlu at Tides Folly Beach,said the restaurant joinedthe stroll last year in an ef-fort to better connect withthe community. It again ispaired with Ella RichardsonFine Art and anticipates anincrease in customers fol-lowing the event, similar tolast year.

Blu also has supported lo-cal events including March

of Dimes benefits and theBB&T Charleston Wine +Food Festival, and Hartlesaid it is particularly mean-

ingful to participate inthose that directly benefitthe community.

“This city is defined by

its culture, and Charlestonand art is just the way weposture ourself,” she said.“Where would we be if pro-

grams for artists were cut?”Mickey Bakst, general

manager of CharlestonGrill, which is paired withRobert Lange Studioes forthe event, said he enjoys be-ing part of the communityof artists in Charleston.

“We believe in the mar-riage of all forms of art andwe look at our food as art,”he said. “It’s essential thatwe support our artists. Itadds culture to the townthat we so desperately needand thrive on.”

One local group that hasseen firsthand the benefitsof the event is the GibbesMuseum, which uses thefunds raised for communityarts and education pro-grams targeting students ofall ages.

“We are deeply grateful toCFADA for organizing thisyearly event that brings ourartists and our communitycloser together,” said AngelaMack, executive directorand chief curator at theGibbes.

‘Moving Into Stillness’“Photography teaches me

to be open and receptive tothe world around me andhow to be an active par-ticipant in the present mo-ment,” says photographerJennifer Ervin.

Ervin’s black-and-whitephotographs are on displayat the Saul Alexander Gal-lery inside the CharlestonCounty Public Library, 68Calhoun St., and will be upthrough the end of July.

“Moving Into Stillness”delves into an exploration of“still life with an emphasison design, carefully select-ing details to create a poeticlanguage, transformingobjects into sensory experi-ences.”

It was there that she pur-chased her first camera forjust a few dollars. In time,it became apparent that shehad a talent for finding justthe right view and angle toportray Southern life: fish-ing villages, marshes, sweet-grass, boats, Gullah women,etc.

At the Dyspeptics Club theplayer sitting West today isregarded as something ofa loose cannon. You neverknow in which direction heis going to be shooting, andas East will tell you, quite of-ten he has been the victim of“friendly fire.” However, intoday’s deal it was South whotook something of a mortalwound, and despite repeatedand loaded questions, wasnever able to discover if hewas the victim of malice or alucky accident.

Before I tell you preciselywhat happened, consider theplay in three no-trump whenWest leads a fourth-highestclub six.

Declarer takes East’s jackwith his king and infersfrom the spot led that Westhas four clubs ready to cashas soon as the defenders geton lead. The best chance forthe contract will thereforebe to run the spades with theaid of a finesse. (This linesucceeds whenever West hasthe spade queen in a two- orthree-card suit. Playing forthat layout, South wouldemerge with nine tricks.)

But compare what hap-pened at the table when Westkicked off with a deceptiveclub two. Now declarer be-lieved clubs were breaking4-3, so it was safe for himto knock out the diamondace rather than rely on thespades. West won his dia-mond ace and impassivelycashed out the clubs.

ACE’S ON BRIDGE

Nature-inspired art on display on Sullivan’s Island

PROVIDED

Twenty contemporary artists come together to exhibit“What We Choose,” which features more than 30 artworks accompanied by the palettes used to createthem. The works are on exhibit through July 30 atRobert Lange Studios, 2 Queen St. A reception will be5:30-7 p.m. Friday, featuring live music, wine and horsd’oeuvres.


Digging even deeper in theLowcountry fashion sceneI n last week’s issue, I did

the cover story on localfashion and where to

shop.I was excited to highlight

the independent shops, theplaces that carry hard-to-find labels so you won’t looklike everyone else and whereit’s often the owner helpingyou with sizes or ringingyou up.

Also, when you shop lo-cal, the money goes backinto the community. All areworthwhile reasons to hit upthese places.

But I quickly ran into aproblem while working onthe cover story: I had limitedspace and so, sadly, couldn’tinclude every local store.

With a little more diggingand feedback, I came upwith some more shops for

readers to check out.Berlins, 114 King St., is a

venerable old shop that hasanchored the corner of Kingand Broad for more than ahundred years. They’ve beenaround so long that gen-erations of the same familyhave probably been fitted forsuits there.

There’s also RTW, 186King St., a very sophisti-cated shop where you canbuy this season’s Lanvin in a

salon-type setting. Aroundsince 1978, RTW was in thevanguard of revitalizingdowntown Charleston andcertainly has influenced lo-cal style.

And even more shopsdowntown: Finicky Filly,303 King St., owned by amother and daughter; thelegendary Bob Ellis, 332King St., where you candrop some serious doughon a pair of designer heels;Copper Penny, 317 KingSt., which has another loca-tion in Mount Pleasant; andRachel Gordon’s One LoveShop, 478 King St.

Also on the list of shopsare Magar Hatworks, 57Cannon St., where you canbuy enchanting couture-quality hats; Las Olas SurfShop, 441 King St.; and

Continuum Skate Shop, 49Spring St.

And outside of downtown,Bashful Boutique, 829 Sa-vannah Highway; the newSmolder in I’On, 152-BCivitas St.; Beba Luxe onJames Island, 1962 MaybankHighway; and Mary Mojo inMount Pleasant, 1405 BenSawyer Blvd.

Then there was the wholevintage/thrift market, and,well, you get the idea. Somany places, so little space.

In working on the coverstory, though, it was heart-ening to see how many in-dependent shops there arearound here.

These are the kinds ofplaces that will continue tomake Charleston a popularshopping destination and agreat town for major style. C51-561960

Widowed mom needs help

DEAR ABBY: I agreewith your adviceto “Driven Away in

Georgia,” whose widowedmother has become so bit-ter, all eight of her childrenavoid her. As a clinicalneuropsychologist whoworks with people with de-mentia, I’d like to share mythoughts.

When a spouse dies, pre-viously undetected earlystage dementia can becomeapparent to others. If thesurviving spouse had pre-existing cognitive deficits,they may have been con-cealed by the competencyof the other spouse. Afterthe spouse dies, the struc-ture and functional supportonce provided suddenly isremoved. Symptoms thenbecome apparent. Anotherdiagnostic option might bedepression, which often can

resemble dementia.There are medications that

can help manage dementia,and early intervention maypartially stabilize her at ahigher level of functioning.You were right to recom-mend that her family be-come more involved ratherthan back away since thiswoman needs interven-tion. — RICHARD FUL-BRIGHT, Ph.D., DALLAS

DEAR DR. FULBRIGHT:Thank you for sharingyour expertise and raisingawareness.
