21 Songs About Booze: A Playlist in Honor of 95-Year-Old Bartender Angelo Cammarata

By Steve LaBate on 7:00 AM on August 29, 2009

Above: Prohibition, what a waste. Angelo Cammarata, 95, is the world's longest-running bartender. He's literally been serving since a few minutes after prohibition ended in 1933—he's even in the Guinness Book and Jim Beam's Bartender Hall of Fame for his longevity slinging suds. Of course, there's more to being a barkeep than pouring drinks. As this man has presided over his family business—no-frills neighborhood bar Cammarata's Cafe in West View, Pa.—for the better part of the last century and into the new millennium, he's also been a friend and counselor to his devoted regulars. Now, Cammarata plans to retire, and... read more

Bonnaroo 2008: Day 3

By Rachael Maddux on 4:10 PM on June 15, 2008

Apologies: I was unable to blog about Saturday at Bonnaroo because of Saturday at Bonnaroo. It's Sunday afternoon now, and with the festival still buzzing and thumping all around us (am currently at our tent in the Sonic Village, with a band called Harrybu McCage doing their thing on the stage next door) I'm just now getting around to processing everything from the past thirty-something hours.... read more

Gogol Bordello and Madonna continue collaboration

By Rebecca Bowen on 12:00 AM on July 10, 2007

When Madonna wasn’t backstage at Live Earth petrifying reporters with her serpentine gaze, she was stealing the show with the help of New York Romani-punk band Gogol Bordello. In the U.K. alone, more than 2.7 million tuned in to Madonna’s Wembley Stadium gig, where she and Gogol Bordello performed a unique rendition of the pop idol’s hit, “La Isla Bonita” mixed with traditional Romani song “Lela Pala Tute.” Even Madonna’s leather jacketed, white sneakered backup dancers couldn’t match the flamboyancy of Gogol Bordello frontman Eugene Hütz and violinist Sergey Ryabatsev.

Gogol Bordello matches up with Madonna

By Rebecca Bowen on 12:00 AM on July 6, 2007

Last summer, Gogol Bordello played a New York benefit concert to raise awareness of anti-Roma police brutality in the Ukraine. Tomorrow, members of the “gypsy punk” rock group are back to cause-oriented performing – this time supporting Madonna during her Wembley Stadium Live Earth show. According to Billboard.com, Madonna invited Gogol Bordello band leader Eugene Hutz and violinist Sergey Ryabtsev to join her due to an “unrelated project” Hutz and Madonna are working on. Hmm! Regardless, the Live Earth plans must have been last-minute, as Gogol Bordello just canceled its Scotland T in the Park Festival appearance. The whole affair... read more
