Music
Yid Vicious
Rock Island Public Library
Wednesday, September 9, 7 p.m.
"Yid Vicious was formed in 1995 in Madison, Wisconsin, in order to ameliorate the woeful dearth of klezmer in America's otherwise pleasant heartland. Klezmer is Yiddish folk music, music for dancing and celebrating, and no band has caused for dancing and celebrating than Yid Vicious. Except Kool & the Gang, when they had that hit single about celebrating good times, come on; that caused lots of celebrating. But Yid Vicious is next, right after Kool & the Gang."
This fall, the Adler Theatre will present performances by several rich boys, but only one who's really allowed to capitalize his title.
Phillip Walker has played with such legends as Fats Domino and Etta James, and replaced Jimi Hendrix as the lead guitarist for the Little Richard Band.
May the Farce be with me!
