The group features Kat Pigliacampi (lead vocals, keyboards), Al Mullins (drums, vocals), Andy Logue (lead guitar, vocals), Chris Lewis (guitar), Kyle Frederick (bass guitar) and John Cassidy (synthesizer).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is our debut show,\u201d said Pigliacampi, during a phone interview this week from her home in Unionville. \u201cAll of us have played music in the area for decades. Previously, I had done acoustic shows with both Chris and John. I went to Dickenson High with Andy and three of the guys went to high school together at William Penn High. John, Kyle and Al used to be in a band together called 13<sup>th<\/sup>Floor.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have a big fan base from our solo work. We\u2019re all in our 40s and 50s and wanted to do the music we loved. We took 70s and 80s songs that aren\u2019t necessarily mainstream and brought them back to life. We\u2019re mixing it up. We\u2019re doing some songs by one-hit wonders like Donny Iris and Andrew Gold. Our goal at The Flash is a nostalgic show.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Pigliacampi listed some of the bands whose songs Kategory 5 would be playing &#8212; a diverse list that includes Abba, Led Zeppelin, Heart, Journey, Dave Mason, REO, the Doobie Brothers, Foreigner, America and the Beatles.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re playing classic rock with an edge,\u201d said Pigliacampi. \u201cOur goal is to play a really good mixture of nostalgia. We are all good singers so we have a lot of four-part and five-part harmonies. Al calls it ear candy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re looking to do specialty shows rather than be a bar band or a tribute band for just one act. We also are working on original material but not for this show. John is like a musical savant &#8212; and a human jukebox. In our show, we\u2019ll have \u2018Trivia Time\u2019 where the audience is asked to identify 70s TV shows\u2019 theme songs.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_954286\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/downingtowntimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/danielle-cuoco-2-300x225.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-954286\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-954286 \" style=\"border: 2px solid black; margin: 4px;\" src=\"http:\/\/downingtowntimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/danielle-cuoco-2-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"danielle cuoco 2\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-954286\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Danielle Cuoco, seen performing the National Anthem in Wilmington, leads of Rewind To Vinyl, Friday night at The Flash.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Cuoco, who is a student at Archmere Academy in Delaware, and Pigliacampi first started working together a long time ago &#8212; when both were actors at the Delaware Children\u2019s Theater.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I was in second grade, we did \u2018Wizard of Oz\u2019 at the Delaware Children\u2019s Theater,\u201d said Cuoco, during a phone interview this week. \u201cI was a munchkin and Kat was the Wicked Witch. She knew of what I\u2019m doing now and asked me to open this show for her band.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Despite her young age, Cuoco is also a veteran musician with an impressive resume. She has performed The National Anthem for the Wilmington Blue Rocks, the Long Island Ducks, the Winterthur Point-to-Point and the Cowtown Rodeo.<\/p>\n<p>Cuoco has played at the World Caf\u00e9 Live at the Queen and was one of the featured performers at the 2014 Ladybug Music Festival in Wilmington. She was one of the youngest attendees at the 2014 Vocal Summit at the Berklee College of Music.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Vocal Summit at Berklee was a great experience,\u201d said Cuoco. \u201cI really learned a lot to help my career there. I started playing piano when I was really young. My grandmother bought me a little piano when I was only two years old. In lower school, my teachers said I had a good ear after they heard me play \u2018Happy Birthday\u2019 without ever learning how to play it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve been listening to my parents\u2019 music ever since I was very young &#8212; Elvis and classic rock like the Who and Pink Floyd. And, I listened to 80s\/90s music like No Doubt and Arctic Monkeys. I also enjoy newer acts like Coldplay and Sam Smith. When I was in fourth grade, my friends were listening to Taylor Swift and I was listening to Queen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cuoco\u2019s love of Freddie Mercury and Queen is reflected in her set list for Friday\u2019s show with the inclusion of \u201cSomebody to Love.\u201d The list also includes songs by John Lennon, Elton John, Billy Joel, Michael Murphy, Bonnie Tyler and Elvis.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI would have included an original but the show is \u2018Rewind to Vinyl\u2019 and I\u2019m not on vinyl,\u201d said Cuoco, who is also a top-flight cross country runner at Archmere (Joe Biden\u2019s alma mater).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve really pursued piano ever since I started playing. Now, I also play classical piano. One of my vents is playing piano. My favorite sound is going from a chord that is in the scale down a half-step to a chord that is out of the scale.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The show at The Flash on October 3 starts at 8 p.m. Tickets are $16 in advance and $20 day of show.<\/p>\n<p>On October 4 at 8 p.m., The Flash will host a twin-bill featuring WaveRadio and Glim Dropper with tickets listed at $12 advance and $16 day of show.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_954287\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"http:\/\/downingtowntimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/waveradio-300x169.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-954287\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-954287\" style=\"border: 2px solid black; margin: 4px;\" src=\"http:\/\/downingtowntimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/waveradio-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"waveradio\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-954287\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">West Chester-based Wave Radio takes the stage at The Flash, Saturday.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>WaveRadio is a West Chester-based trio featuring\u00a0Colin McGetrick (vocals, guitar), James McLaughlin (keyboards) and Chris Cotter (drums).The band\u2019s eponymous debut album is now available on\u00a0iTunes.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this year,\u00a0WaveRadio took highest honors at the Beta Hi Fi music competition in Philadelphia at World Cafe Live. The trio\u2019s debut HD music video \u201cOut Of Reach,\u201d\u00a0which was released in 2013, was produced and directed by Mr. Robot Mouse in cooperation with TribeSound Productions in West Chester.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI had worked as a producer and engineer at TribeSound, which is Chris\u2019 studio, and had done some things with him there,\u201d\u00a0said McGetrick, during a phone interview this week. \u201cHe had invited James to have a jam session there to get ideas for hip-hop rhythm tracks.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI eventually made my way down to it. Not long after that, we started recording songs together. Our first album is a combination of songs I wrote when I was younger and songs we wrote in the studio. The album was released in October 2012.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>WaveRadio is moving forward with plans for a new disc.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s been a long time between releases,\u201d said McGetrick. \u201cWe\u2019ve been writing songs for a new album. We hope to have an EP out first and hopefully that will happen soon. We\u2019re mixing four of the new songs right now and some vocals are being cut. We\u2019re adding little things here and there.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI never expected to be playing in a trio &#8212; especially a guitar-keyboard-drums trio. A lot of the band\u2019s versatility comes from James\u2019 talent for being able to play two things at the same time &#8212; bass with his left hand and melodies and harmonies with is right hand.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt didn\u2019t take us long to develop our sound. They were talented musicians and I had a backlog of songs. The balance came easily. We knew we wanted to be a rock-and-roll band with solid instrumentals &#8212; rock with a strong instrumental quality.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSome of the bands that have influenced us are Muse and the Black Keys. We have a side to us where we can jam and we also have a focus on songwriting. We write together. Sometimes, I bring the songs and we finish them together. Other times, we write songs all together I n the studio.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>WaveRadio and Glim Dropper have something special in store for their fans at Saturday\u2019s show &#8212; free stuff.\u00a0All ticket holders will go home with Glim Dropper\u2019s brand new single and WaveRadio\u2019s latest release.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019re friends of ours and we\u2019re looking forward to playing with them at The Flash,\u201d said McGetrick. \u201cThe Flash is a great listening room. We each will do our set and then we\u2019ll be combining our bands for a portion of the show.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_954288\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/downingtowntimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/addamsmorticiagomezlurchmedia-300x207.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-954288\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-954288 \" style=\"border: 2px solid black; margin: 4px;\" src=\"http:\/\/downingtowntimes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/addamsmorticiagomezlurchmedia-300x207.jpg\" alt=\"addamsmorticiagomezlurchmedia\" width=\"300\" height=\"207\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-954288\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Addams Family \u2014 The Musical is running at the Media Theatre, now through Nov. 2.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The hit musical \u201cThe Addams Family,\u201d which is running now through November 2 at the Media Theatre\u00a0(104 East State Street, Media, 610-891-0100,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mediatheatre.org\/\">www.mediatheatre.org<\/a>), has somewhat of a macabre vibe to it &#8212; an unnatural attraction to death and other gruesome things.<\/p>\n<p>In a situation of life imitating art, one of the shows lead characters encounter a life-threatening occurrence &#8212; fortunately without a gruesome ending. Jennie Eisenhower, who plays the role of Morticia Addams, was struck by a vehicle on her way to the theater for a pre-show rehearsal not long ago.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI got hit by a truck the week before we opened and I still have a concussion,\u201d said Eisenhower, during a phone interview Wednesday morning from her home in Philadelphia.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was walking across the street on green. A truck didn\u2019t see me and drove into me. I was thrown through the air. But, I don\u2019t remember anything. I was taken to Riddle Hospital in an ambulance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI had a clean CT, no brain bleed and no broken bones. I\u2019m getting better and the doctors said I could still do the show. But, I have to watch what I do. I can\u2019t drive. I have to limit my physical activity and avoid bright lights and loud noises. Concussions are really scary. You seem normal but your brain is still healing. I\u2019m just glad to be alive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>There is an old saying in show business that \u201cThe Show Must Go On\u201d and Eisenhower is a testament to that feeling.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLuckily I had memorized the show so I haven\u2019t been forgetting things,\u201d said Eisenhower, an Equity actor<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>who graduated from Conestoga High in 1996 and has performed in Off-Broadway productions and regional theater. \u201cThey just had to modify the show a little. Morticia has taken on a serene, spacey quality.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One of the most likeable and quirkiest families in the entertainment world is the Addams Family &#8212;\u00a0a group of fictional characters created by\u00a0American\u00a0cartoonist\u00a0Charles Addams.\u00a0As named by Charles Addams, the Addams Family characters are Gomez,\u00a0Morticia,\u00a0Uncle Fester,\u00a0Lurch,\u00a0Grandmama, Wednesday,\u00a0Pugsley, Pubert Addams and\u00a0Thing.<\/p>\n<p>After being introduced in a comic strip in the 1930s, the Addams Family eventually found its way to a television series (with real actors), an animated TV series and movies (with real actors). The ghoulish clan even made it to Broadway. In 2010, \u201cThe Addams Family &#8212; the Broadway Musical\u201d made its debut on the Great White Way.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe cast in our show is really talented &#8212; especially Jeff Koon, who plays Gomez,\u201d said Eisenhower,\u00a0who was a theater major at Northwestern University. \u201cThis is a really fun show. My main exposure to the show was the movie with Anjelica Huston as Morticia. I also checked out YouTube to watch the TV show and the first movie. But, for me, I don\u2019t like imitating other people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll of the members of the Addams family are spooky but Morticia just wants what every mother wants &#8212; for her family to be happy. She\u2019s just your average woman except that she dresses provocatively and has a strange sense of humor. And, she loves a good death joke.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Life is not especially smooth for Morticia in the show.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne of her main troubles is that her husband is putting her second behind her daughter,\u201d said Eisenhower, who has a direct link to two former American presidents (Dwight Eisenhower is her great-grandfather and Richard Nixon is her grandfather). \u201cThe things she wants aren\u2019t that outlandish.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe most challenging part of the role is that she does dance quite a bit and I\u2019ve been handicapped with my concussion. Her role is written low so it\u2019s an easy role to sing. What I like most about Morticia is her passion. She\u2019s very passionate about everything. She\u2019s very high stakes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Tickets for the show are $42 for adults, $35 for seniors and $25 for children. Evening performances are at 8 p.m. Wednesdays through Saturdays. Matinees are at 2 p.m. on Wednesdays and Saturdays and 3 p.m. on Sundays.<\/p>\n<p>Live theater is also alive in northern Delaware. \u201cFiddler on the Roof,\u201d which is one of the all-time favorite American musicals, is running now through November 2 at the Candlelight Theater (2208 Millers Road, Arden, Delaware,\u00a0302- 475-2313,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.nctstage.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">www.nctstage.org<\/a>).

The dessert will be a special performance by the two groups performing together after they\u2019ve finished their own sets.<\/p>\n<p>Callahan, who has been a fixture in the Delaware Valley blues\/rock scene for well over a decade will be performing with her longtime band which features Tom Walling on drums, Garry Lee on bass and her husband Allen James on guitar.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRoger and I were on a bill together before and we jammed together then,\u201d said Callahan, during a phone interview Wednesday morning. \u201cI thought it would be fun to play the Queen as a co-bill. I was talking to the Queen and then asked Roger if he wanted to do it. The Queen thought it was a good idea.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In a phone interview Tuesday evening, Girke said, \u201cBoth our bands are pretty well-known regional blues bands. I\u2019ll be playing from 8-9 p.m. with my blues organ trio. From 9:15-10:15, it will be Deb\u2019s band. Then, we\u2019ll come together with both bands at 10:30 for a grand finale. We\u2019ve been working on some songs together and we\u2019ll sing some duets.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Callahan added, \u201cWe\u2019ll do five or six songs in the jam part. I don\u2019t think we\u2019ll do any originals in that segment. We\u2019ll just tap into blues standards. In my set, I\u2019ll probably do about 80 per cent originals.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have four CDs and I draw from them all. There will probably be more from my last CD \u2018Tell It Like It Is\u2019 and some new stuff that I haven\u2019t recorded yet. I\u2019m working on a new CD. It\u2019s coming along slowly. Allen and I have a three-and-a-half year old son named Elijah and it\u2019s made everything move a little more slower.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve always liked the blues &#8212; the expressiveness of it. I could feel the pain and suffering &#8212; and the joy. I like the way it spoke to me. By nature, I have a soulful voice so I gravitated to the blues.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Callahan originally moved from the Boston area to Philadelphia to attend the University of Pennsylvania\u2019s School of Social Work. She stayed in the area and still works as a social worker.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI work three days a week at a youth center in Center City Philadelphia,\u201d said Callahan. \u201cI do youth counseling. My music is definitely influenced by my work as a social worker. You can hear it in the song \u2018Food on the Table,\u2019 which was on my last album.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Girke\u2019s last album was \u201cPiece of Work,\u201d which was released last year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve been working on my sixth CD since March,\u201d said Girke. \u201cI\u2019m using the trio along with some heavyweight session musicians. We\u2019ve already recorded a dozen songs. We have another session coming up in November. We\u2019ll do four or five more and let the best surface.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The RGB Blues Organ Trio presents a new twist on the Blues\/Jazz Philly Organ Trio format and features two of\u00a0 the area\u2019s best organ trio practitioners \u2013 Bill Schilling (organ) and Glenn Ferracone (drums).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve been playing guitar since 1967 and performing professionally since 1975. This is my first time to play as an organ trio. It was an organic development with drummer Glenn Ferracone. He has worked with a lot of heavyweights in the jazz\/blues\/organ scene. That connected me with Bill Schilling.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBill is an amazing organist. With his left hand, he plays bass and with his right hand everything else. We got together originally and did one gig and then a couple sessions. It was really profound. Everything felt good. It really has a good groove to it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Tickets for show are $18. Other upcoming shows on the Upstairs Stage are Vertical Current with Ode to Omni on October 2, the Ebonys with Tracey A. and Stacia Lachole on October 4 and the Black Lillies with Micah on October 7.<\/p>\n<p>The Downstairs Stage will host Joe Trainor and City Theater Company on October 3 and John Hiatt performing solo on October 8 with Billy Rafoul as the opening act.<\/p>\n<p>On October 6, there will be a twin-bill at the Chameleon Club (223 North Water Street<br \/>\nLancaster, 717-299-9684,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.chameleonclub.net\/\">http:\/\/www.chameleonclub.net<\/a>) that will have fans of metal music salivating. The show, which starts at 8 p.m. and has an admission fee of $23.50, features Fozzy and Theory of a Dead Man.<\/p>\n<p>Fozzy got its start in Atlanta at the turn of the century but took a number of years to crystallize into the powerful band that it is today.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur early days seem like another life,\u201d said Fozzy vocalist Chris Jericho, during a phone interview Wednesday from a tour stop in Fort Wayne, Indiana. \u201cThe first two years were part of our evolution. That ended in 2002. It was a fun way to start but no way to move forward.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEvery record we do grows. There\u2019s so much going on all the time. In the last couple years, we kept moving from one level to another level that was higher. It\u2019s really gratifying to see how we\u2019ve grown. I\u2019m not surprised that we\u2019ve endured as a band. It\u2019s never surprising when you\u2019re doing something you love.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fozzy\u2019s current lineup features Rich Ward (guitar, vocals), Frank Fontsere (drums), Jeff Rouse (bass), Billy Grey (guitar) and Jericho (vocals).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRich, Frank and myself have been together since the start,\u201d said Jericho. \u201cThis lineup has been together for a year. Some guys have come and gone but we\u2019ve always maintained our sound as Fozzy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re known for groove-heavy riffs along with a lot of melodies and harmonies. Having clean vocals has helped us stand out from the pack. We really don\u2019t do very much screaming.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the 70s, everybody in the band sang. We hearken back to that. Everybody sings. Sonically, there is so much going on. We have a lot of variety. If you look back at Queen, they had a lot of variety &#8212; heavy songs, ballads and even some rockabilly. We\u2019ve adopted that approach. If Metallica and Journey had a bastard child, it would sound like Fozzy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith the new album, we just wanted to write 12 great songs. Rich writes most of the songs and I write most of the lyrics. Whatever works best, we\u2019ll do it. I write pretty much around a song title. Sometimes, I\u2019m writing a story. Other times, it starts with imagery and phrases.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If the name Chris Jericho sounds familiar to you even though you may never have heard of Fozzy, there is a good reason.
