“Nighthawk’ presently performing loc

By CHERYL WISHLOW Staif Reporter

Nightwatch.

Not bad, but not spec- tacular and certainly not the best. The Victoria-based five- piece band is playing nightly until Saturday at D.J.'s Cab- aret at the Marlane Hotel.

The group performs many types of music like rock 'n roll, country rock, gospel/ bluegrass, rhythm and blues, blues, English Rock and New ' Wave.

Nightwatch is extremely | versatile in the sense that it ' can play all these styles, but the band itself has only one style which comes in all the numbers.

The band is a high energy danceable band, but with no unique style of its own.

Nightwatch has only been together for two months, but its members are experienced in the field.

The group consists of Mar- ianne Grittani, rhythm gui- tar, vocals and percussion, Jerome Jarvis, drums and vocals, Peter Walker, lead guitar and vocals, Robert Brodeur, lead and rhythm guitar and vocals, and Dennis Griffiths on bass guitar. | Collectively, members of the band have logged over 60 years of professional experi- ence in clubs, concerts and dances all across Canada.

In 1979, Marianne, Peter and Jerome came together in Victoria to form Bluebird, a spin-off of Island, and they soon established a name for

Radio. In 1979, she teamed up with Jerome, Peler and David Woodhead to form the band Bluebird, with whom she toured coastal B.C. and opened for Papa John Creach on his western, tour that summer.

Since that time, she has been part of other west coast bands, such as Archipelago and Island. As a back-up wocalist she has recorded wht Shari Ulrich, Jerome Jane iValdy.

Out East, he performed and recorded with musicians such as Stan Rogers, Luke Gibson, Perth County Con- spiracy and Brent Titcomb. He has also done extensive radio and TV work and in 1976, toured and recorded with Noel Harrison.

In 1978, he was musical arranger and played synthe- sizer in the East Coast hit Road to Charlottowne.

His two years in B.C. in- clude tours of Vancouver Is- land and the Gulf Islands with Real Fantasy Band, Is- land, Bluebird, Archipelago, as well as an appearance at the Queen Elizabeth Play- house in concert with Brent. Titcomb.

Peter started out in Mon- treal and made a name for himself as far west as Cal- gary, working as solo artist, sideman and bass player.

He- has had 15 years

as a hi

ing dance band through he islands and coastal B.C.

Now, joined by Bob and Dennis, they come under the name of Nightwatch.

Marianne's career in sing- ing began in 1970 when she performed with the Toronto cast of Hair. While in Toronto Ontario, she appeared at the Riverboat and numerous other clubs in the region.

More recently she has per- formed asa solo artist in B.C. for three years, during which time she toured with Valdy and was featured on CBC

Ability to work

WINNIPEG (CP) — The Forum Art Institute isn't a cliquish art school by any means. And that’s just the way Nikola Bjelajac, founder of the non-profit school, wants it.

“We don’t refuse anyone the right to come, but we do expect them to show the ability to wor a Bjelajac said in an int

“We expect people to de- velop a discipline.”

Bjelajac said his school in- vites persons of all ages, re- gardless of their level of ac- complishment. “The age fac- tor has nothing to do with art.”

Neither does salary or life- style, it seems. Among For- um pupils are doctors, nurses, real estate agents, university professors and housewives.

Bjelajac started Forum when the University of Mani- toba’s :school of art was moved to its present location

in southern Winnipeg from the city’s downtown area. He said the relocation “left a va- cuum for adult art education” in the city core.

From September to May, the school offers classes in painting, feet life draw-

Guitarist sues record company

Keith Richards, the lead guitarist for the Rolling Stones, has filed a suit against a record company for the misleading promotion of a new album by using his name and photo.

The British rock star said he sat in as a sideman at the recording sessions for Hold- ing. Out My Love to You to help fledgling talent Max Romeo make a_ successful first album.

But Richards claims Shan- achie Records Inc., put out Romeo's album with promo- tional material that falsely said “featuring Keith Rich- ards” and used his photo- graph on the back of the al- bum without

In addition to monetary damages, Richard asked the court for an _ injunction against the unauthorized use of his name and likeness, and a formal apology from the New Jersey record firm.

She helps plot

her own

By Jerry Buck

Los ANGELES (AP) — Probably no actress on tele- vision has fallen on her face more often than Katherine MacGregor.

Not only is she delighted at the prospect, but she helps plot her own downfall. She plays Harriet Oleson, the mean, social-climbing ‘shrew. whose wicked schemes al- ways backfire on NBC's Littie House on the Prairie.

“I look for the humor of Mrs. Oleson,” said MacGre- gor. “She was. originally painted as just black-and- white mean. Anyone that mean has to be a fool. :

“So I began mixing farce into it. I think the audience counts on seeing Mrs. Oleson

Losses rights to Elvis

Presley's name

NEW YORK (CP) — A company that owned exclu- sive rights for commercial use of Elvis Presley's name and likeness lost those rights when he died on Aug. 16, 1977, a federal appeals court ruled Monday.

The 2-to-1 decision by the Second Circuit Court of Ap- peals had the «effect of

Mrs. Oleson is the prairie nemesis who plagues the life of the Ingalls family, Laura (Melissa Gilbert), in ‘par- ticular, Mrs. Oleson usually is aided and abetted by her daugher, “Nasty” Nellie, who disappears from the series \this summer with the de- parture of actress Alison Arngrim. ©

Mrs. Oleson’s role began to blossom in the second year of the series, which had its pre- miers in 1974.

MacGregor said: “The In- galls and the Olesons were at a campout, and the way it was .written, my husband jumps across a creek, turns back to help me and I fall in the water off camera.

SCENE WAS CHANGED

“I told the director, why not show me falling in. I sai the audience wants to see her fall in, so we changed it a bit so that we wouldn't tele- graph her fall. I turned down my husband's offer of help, jumped the creek by myself, smiled at my accomplish- ment, and fell back into the water.”

Macregor is a mutli-tal- ented actress who spent a number of years on the stage in New York before moving to Los Angeles about 10 years ago. “I twa a rude

wood. I was used to doing juicy parts on the stage. I ‘was ’so choosy.”

At one time, she nearly gave up acting. She took a job in an art gallery and when she was offered the role in Little House, she al- most turned it down.

The book series, written by Laura Ingalls Wilder, makes only a brief mention of Mrs. Oleson. “It said thAT Nellie had a birthday party and invited the Ingalls girls.”

“I like music and I like to sing,” Tristan said when asked why he is willing to come so far to sing in a choir.

“They wouldn't do it if it meant nothing to them,” said choirmaster Jeremy Spur- geon, but added that choir- boys are. scarce because many families leave the city on long weekends for sum-

LONDON (CP) — The Royal Opera has announced that because of financial dif- ficulties it will have only three now productic: its 1981-82 season, insiead of tho usual four of five. However, a fourth production may be possible if the opera is filmed. The new season opens Sept. 28 with Canadian tenor Jon Vickers starring in Samson and Delia by Saint-Saens.

“Hopefully, as the choir improves, more boys will come forward,” said Spur- geon, who would like to see 80 boys in the choir even- t

ually.

The Johnson family moved from Cambridge, England, to Fort Saskatchewan. A tea- cher suggested Tristan, the

-older brother, audition for the King’s College Choir. His parente and a choir member take turns driving them to and from rehearsals and ser- vices.

FOLLOWED BROTHERS

Stephen Morrison, who lives in Devon, 85 kilometres southwest of Edmczton, fol- lowed in the footsteps of two brothers who sang in cath- edral choirs in Montreal and Toronto.

Andrew Paul of Sherwood Park joined All Saints’ be- cause an older brother, Phil, was a member of the boys’ choir at Calgary's Christ Church,

All Saints’ is the only Angiican church choir in Edmonton with boys, a cer- turies-old tradition in Angli- can cathedrals, college chap- els and parish churches. But unlike its English counter- parts and other Canadian choirs of men and boys, the Edmonton choir does not

depend entirely on boys to-

carry the soprano line. -

“The boys here tend to rely ’ on the'stronger voices of the women,” Spurgeon said.

For Jesse Barlow, choir singing is a family tradition. Two brothers, Peter and Eric, preceded him in the All Saints choir.

The choir, said Jesse's parents, “has provided’ self- assurance and an introduc- tion to music and the ser- vice.”

Spurgeon said a boy in an all-male choir has more res- ponsibility and gets more out of singing than does a boy in All Saints’ 84-voice mixed choir, where the soprano line is shared between the boys and female voices.

But All Saints’ boy choris- ters are important and “they sing. .. you should hear them by themselves on Saturday mornings.”

There is no each thing asa non-singing boy, Spurgeon said. “There's a voice hiding in there
