BY LAURA MACLEANHUNTSVILLE FORESTER

The best thing about the NorthernBlues Review is that even if you’vebeen to one show, there’s always rea-son to come back.

Set to return to the Algonquin The-atre on Sept. 7, the show offers musiclovers the chance to see some seriousmusical talent explode on stage.

“The last show was the first time wehad a horns section,” stated TobinSpring, who helps co-ordinate the

event and is well-known in the commu-nity as the lead singer/guitarist for theband Laganza. “The arrangements aregetting more complex and we’re step-ping up the energy level.”

While it maintains a blues themethroughout the show, Northern BluesReview, which is returning to the the-atre for the fourth time, also encom-passes jazz, soul, and, of course, someold-fashioned rock and roll. Remainingtrue to its blues roots, this show fea-tures tunes from the likes of Van Mor-

rison, Stevie Wonder, The DoobieBrothers and The Blues Brothers.

The show continues to offer a lineupof extremely gifted musicians, includ-ing Spring, his father, Bill, Sean Con-non, Papa John, Mike Moretto,Sherisse Stevens, Louis Tusz, DerekCochrane, Richard Watling and RolyPlatt, among many others.

Joining the all-star cast for the firsttime this year is blues guitar specialistDave Curry, Connon’s son, Shane, anda couple of Huntsville High School

choir students recruited by Stevens.Aside from the Northern Blues

Review taking place at the AlgonquinTheatre on Sept. 7, the show is alsoslated to be held at the Stockey Centrein Parry Sound on Sept. 14 and at theRene M. Caisse Memorial Theatre inBracebridge on Oct. 26.

“We’re trying to expand our venuesand bring in new local talent fromthose areas,” Spring said. “We have tocome up with new material for theshows, so this gives people an opportu-

nity to get involved to help take theshow to the next level.”

Anyone who is interested in joiningthe Northern Blues Review show canstop by The Hideaway on Tuesdaynights at 9 p.m. Bring your instrument.

Tickets to the Northern BluesReview are $22 in advance and $24 atthe door.

BY DARREN LUMFor once, your parents’ embarrass-

ing cottage will make you the envy ofthe neighbourhood.

The Home and Garden Television(HGTV) makeover show My Parents’House is coming to Muskoka andwants a unique cottage or house tobring into the new millennium.

With the help of the parents’ chil-dren, the television show’s designersand crew will transform at least oneroom from embarrassing to chic andstylish.

The show’s senior co-ordinatorAimee Sloggett wants an outdated,out-of-fashion and out-of-the-wayplace and they want to show the coun-try the process behind the transforma-tion.

“We’re looking for the tackiest, out-dated cottages,” she said.

Places situated in unusual localessuch as islands and cliffs are high onthe producers’ list. The show is shoot-ing for the fourth season and will needapplications filled out by September atthe latest.

When a place is approved, the sub-jects will be expected to be availablefor four days of shooting eitherbetween Monday and Thursday orTuesday and Friday. Possibilities of aTuesday to Friday schedule can bearranged. A fee of $1,500 is paid out atthe time of approval following two vis-its of meetings and consultations, witha wait of two weeks for approval.

Expect an edge to be given to appli-cants with unique characters or partic-ular talents such as square dancers, sheadds. And families with more than onechild will also be more attractive to theshow.

The structures and spaces should beat least 200 square feet and have ceil-ings at least eight feet high. The spacerequirements are for the cameras andlighting.

Renovations can include wallsbeing knocked down to complete con-struction of new decks.

In the past three years the show hasfocused on the Greater Toronto Area,but has branched out this season, look-ing for other areas.

Sloggett said, “It’s (Muskoka) closeto Toronto. It’s unique and popular. Alot of people know it.”

Anyone interested in more informa-tion can visit the show’s websitewww.myparentshouse.com. For appli-cations you can e-mail [email protected].

The show is currently in reruns andcan be seen on HGTV on Mondays at9 p.m. until Oct. 1 when the show willbe on Monday to Friday at 4 p.m. Theirnext season begins April 2008.

The show’s hosts Andrika Lawrenand Emmanuel Belliveau will be at theannual Fall Home Show in Torontothat runs Sept. 13 to 16. They will bemaking a casting presentation on Sat-urday and Sunday at the AutomotiveCentre on the Exhibition grounds.
