Citypaper, 7/27/06

Just when I thought I was through with obnoxious gay-themed comedies, TLA pulls me back in. The Gay & Lesbian Fest's opening night feature, the American Pie parody/rip-off Another Gay Movie, opens wide this week, and I have a review.

Trumpeter Baikida Carroll, a member of the St. Louis-based Black Artists Group in the late '60s which spawned Julius Hemphill and Oliver Lake, shows up with Tim Berne and a pair of his usual compatriots, Michael Formanek and Tom Rainey, in a quartet dubbed Faux Faux for an Ars Nova show on Sunday.

Also, a brief mention for the Mingus Big Band, Friday at the Art Museum, and a CD review for local drummer Tony Deangelis, who has a CD release party Saturday night at Chris'.
