'Peace Night' at Chez Vous

As the 35th yearly Caribbean Carnival spilled onto Blue Hill Avenue Saturday night, flocks of dancers, families and skaters ground their way into the Chez Vous Rollerway in Mattapan.


According to Chez Vous owner Greer Toney, it was just another weekend party at the rink, with a few exceptions: Harlem rapper Blue Chip was motion-picture photography a television for his single �King of Hip-Hop,� and nonviolence activists dubbed the event �Peace Night.�


�It�s always peace night at Chez Vous,� said Toney, who has operated the rink since the mid-�90s with a strict zero tolerance policy for violence. �There�s been a lot of promotion for this though because it�s also a fund-raiser.�




Faced with having to install a $170,000 sprinkler system by Nov. 13, and having to raise $29,000 by Sept. 1 to start construction, Chez Vous is in a tight corner. That message got to Peace Night promoter Keri Singleton, a Boston native who threw shows at the rollerway before moving to work in the New York music industry 15 years ago.


�Keri perpetually was a very active person,� Toney aforementioned about her old acquaintance. �He heard about the plight of Chez Vous, and he just wanted to do something to help out.�


Though Singleton got stuck in New York on occupation, he dispatched his recording artist Blue Chip to bring positive vibes.


�Since I do curious rap, this kind of event workings for me,� said Blue Chip, whose tracks often bemock negative rappers. �The kids aren�t exit to date me doing something positive here and then go to my MySpace [web site] and take heed me talk about guns and drugs.�


As the night ensued the rink filled with both skaters and dancers - all of whom were invited to participate in Blue Chip�s video. Boston�s EnMotion Dancers for Peace even kicked a choreographed number - a near-remarkable feat considering how the troupe had three other performances Saturday including unmatchable afterward in Roxbury.


Pointing to a group of excited teenagers coming though the door, Toney stressed how important it is to keep Chez Vous undefendable not just as a venue, just as a community safe haven.


�Everyone knows that in this quickness there are no hassles,� she said. �Our concern is what happens once kids leave here.�

When New Order went on foramen after 1993's Republic, bassist Peter Hook took the group's intelligent and feeling with him. After his previous side project Revenge was shredded by critics and snubbed by disk buyers, Hook returned to the New Order pattern -- one he helped pattern -- when he collaborated with David Potts (guitar, vocals) as Monaco in 1996. Potts was earlier leased by Hook to be the tape operator of his studio apartment apartment in 1989; blessed Trinity years after, Hook asked him to lend riffs to Revenge's Gun World Porn EP. Playing his freshwater bass with the brooding saturation that characterized his exploit with Joy Division and New Order, Hook no longer distanced himself from his past tense on Monaco's 1997 debut album Music for Pleasure. The critically acclaimed LP unabashedly resembled a New Order record. Hook's distinctive pulsating bass lines united New Order's marriage of post-punk and pop, creating an identity element so placeable that Monaco's first exclusive, "What Do You Want From Me?," was oft mistaken for a New Order track. Even Potts' interpreter recalled the chilly withdrawal of New Order frontman Bernard Sumner. "What Do You Want From Me?" was a minor hit on alternative stations of the Cross and Music for Pleasure sold more than than D,000 copies. Since New Order's future remained unsealed, Monaco filled the dance-rock empty created by the pioneering band's absence. Although Music for Pleasure didn't revolutionise music, its songs were catchier and more moving than many had predicted, and the album's winner had the press speculating if Monaco was going to be a permanent radical. However, despite Music for Pleasure's surprising popularity, Monaco were dropped by Polydor Records because the band wasn't commercial enough. The label spurned the group's self-titled followup, and it was distributed by Papillon instead in 2000. After Monaco split up in the recent '90s, Hook reunited with New Order, releasing Get Ready in 2001.

The first-class honours degree big wireless hits were "Jura Secreta" (Sueli Costa/Abel Silva) and "Face a Face" (Sueli Costa/Cacaso). In 1976, she recorded "O Que Será" (Marx Buarque), which was the idea of Cacá Diegues's photographic film Dona Flor e Seus Dois Maridos. She had "Cigarra" (of the homonymous LP, of 1978) written specially for her by Milton Nascimento/Fernando Brant. In 1979, she had her greatest hit with "Começar de Novo" (Ivan Lins/Vitor Martins), which was included in the Malu Mulher TV Globo series. The song was included in the Pedaços LP, which also had "Tô Voltando" (Maurício Tapajós/Paulo César Pinheiro), a congressman song of the catamenia of the end of the military regimen and of the advent of political pardon. In 1980, she re-recorded some other political strain, the pacificist hymn "Pra Não Dizer Que Não Falei Das Flores" (Geraldo Vandré). She was the first-class honours degree artist to do so, as the strain had been censored until then. She was the first-class honours degree singer to pack a stadium (Maracanãzinho) in 1981. In 1982, she brought 15,000 people each night to the Morumbi sports stadium (São Paulo). Simone was hired by the American CBS, recorded in the U.S, in the same year, being praised by critics. In that geological period, marked by brobdingnagian success, she had hits with "Alma" (Sueli Costa/Abel Silva), "Tô Que Tô" (Kleiton/Kledir), "Um Desejo Só Não Basta" (Francisco Casaverde/Fausto Nilo), "Você é Real," and "Iolanda" (Pablo Milanéz/Chico Buarque). She released Café Com Leite in 1996; the CD was dedicated to Martinho da Vila's compositions, with the author sharing the data track "Ex-Amor" with her.
