“HOME IS WHERE THE HARP IS”

HARP DOG BROWN AND THE BLOODHOUNDS AT THE

OTHER ART CAFE, NOVEMBER 4-5.

by Robert Luke

As Norm Peterson of Cheers fame once said, "It's a dog eat dog world, and I'm wearing milkbone
underwear". Ever feel this way? Sure, we all do. And so does Harp Dog Brown, who played the Other
Art Cafe from November 4-5. Backed up by the super-tight Bloodhounds, Harp Dog bemoaned the
blues in true Delta style. I caught his friday night show, having been recommended to him by a firend
who insisted that they were "the best". She didn't lie. By all accounts, it was the Dog's first time in
Prince George, and he and his Hounds were very impressed with the reception givent hem. And no
wonder. Harp Dog was awesome as he bawled, bopped, and blew his harp through a diverse blend of
blues, as the Bloodhounds laid down a groove that even the devil would have sold his soul for. If you

were to close your eyesduring is performance, you would swear yo were down in Missisippi, carried

away on the current of the Delta River Blues.

Harp Dog said that he would return if asked, and judging by the crowd's reaction, they will be
back. The Dog and his Hounds lit a fire with their music and stoked it all night. The crowd was warm
and receptive, proving his feeling that "home is where the harp is". This is actually the title of his latest
album. Pick it up; you won't be disappointed, these guys are hot. As the Dog himself said to me
between sets, "If you don't get-no heat, you can't do no cooking." There was plenty of heat at the Other
Art Cafe that week, and Harp Dog Brown and the Bloodhounds are master chefs. Wy

Hellena! She’s
beautiful and enchanting and a
bitch. And for some reason
Nick is totally obsessed with

her. This film is definitely too
strange to be considered
realistic. It’s pure

unadulterated fantasy at it’s
best (or worst depending on
how you view it!) In fact it is
so bad that it made this
viewer’s skin .crawl just’ to
watch it. However, at the
same time it was fascinating,
and made me wonder at what
kinds of perversions some
humans are capable of.

Boxing Hellena is done
in the same style as Fatal
Attraction and Deadringers. All
three continually hook the
audience, not only with sexual
tension, but with unexpected
twists and turns. If you like
movies with an obvious plot
that make some semblance of
rationality then don’t waste
your money, but if you are into
kinky —_ sexual-psycho-thriller-
type movies then Boxing
Hellena is the movie for you.
In any event it’s a movie to
keep in mind next time you're
scanning the shelves at your
local video store.

For the ultimate in dining,
surely there is no better place in
Prince George than Da Moreno
Italian restaurant. I had the
pleasure of enjoying Moreno's
fine Tuscan cuisine on a
Saturday evening. The lights
were dimmed, the wine was
flowing, the Parmesan cheese
was pungent...the world was my
oyster.

Da Moreno features a
delightful array of pasta with a
fine selection of succulent veal,
and the appetizers are pure
perfection. Top any of these off
with a glass of Chianti, and
you'll experience the culinary
tour de force of a lifetime.

A meal of this magnitude
comes at a price of about $30
per person- a little pricey for a
student budget. But hey, us:
students can't survive on Kraft
Dinner and chicken cutlets
seven days a week. So if you
are looking for excellent food
served in the ambiance of
Tuscany, Michaelangelo and
garlic (say, to win over your
better half on Valentine's Day
or your anniversary) then Da
Moreno should be top of the

list. %
