Residents are Reminded to Complete and Return the 2010 U.S. Census Form Mailed to Every Household. This questionnaire contains 10 questions and will take only a short time to complete but filling it out makes a big difference. Every year, Federal funding allocations and many grants are based in part on census data. Redistricting, or creation of new federal and state districts for electoral representation, is based on population information obtained from the census. Beginning the last week of April enumerators will be visiting households who have not mailed their forms in by that time. For further information on the 2010 census, visit www.nj.gov/2010Census or call the NJ State Data Center at (609) 983-2216.

They Might Be Giants – Apr 18 2009

admin — Fri, 27 Feb 2009 14:59:04 +0000

McCarter Theatre

For twenty-five years, two guys from Brooklyn – John Flansburgh and John Linnell have been playing with listeners’ heads while selling 4 million
copies of thirteen albums and moving from cult figures to the
mainstream. In the process, they have spawned a whole generation of
“nerd rocker” bands and just plain geeks with songs about thermostats,
metal detectors, and President James Polk. In the late 90s, the dynamic
duo began expanding its horizons into television (13 videos for MTV),
movies, and the internet, contributing songs and the opening themes to Austin Powers: the Spy Who Shagged Me, The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, and the Grammy-winning song “Boss of Me” for Malcolm in the Middle. Last year, Flansburgh and Linell released their latest CD, The Else, and launched their free monthly podcast which has turned into a national underground favorite (available on iTunes and at tmbg.com). The Village Voice put it this way: “They make being defiantly uncool look and sound unbelievably cool!”

Get the Led Out A Led Zeppelin Tribute

admin — Fri, 27 Feb 2009 09:55:11 +0000

McCarter Theatre

Apr 4 2009

From the bombastic and epic to the folky and mystical, Get The Led Out have captured the essence of the recorded music of Led Zeppelin as has no other tribute band. Just as the Fab Faux have done for The Beatles, these six Philadelphia -based musicians don’t attempt to mimic the band’s live shows. Instead, they stand and deliver the LZ studio recordings with all the bells and whistles attached, re-creating the songs in all their depth and glory, with the studio overdubs that Zeppelin itself never performed live. Each evening’s two-hour set spans the mythic career of the legendary British supergroup, with a strong focus on the early years, but also touching on deeper cuts that were seldom, if ever, heard in concert.
