Huey, News put on ‘bad’ show

Sometimes “Bad Is Bad.”
And then sometimes “bad” is just plain,
stinkin’, outta-sight fantastic.
Huey Lewis and the News was “bad” Sun
day night at G. Rollie White Coliseum — real
bad.
A sellout crowd, or very close to one, stood
on its feet from the second Huey hit the stage
and belted out “Jacob’s Ladder” until the
News cranked out the last stinging licks of
“Back In Lime” — two hours plus, two en
cores and a “just one more” later.
They were tight, well-rehearsed tunes pre
sented with solid News musicianship. Actually
the News was down one musician. Bassist
Mario Cipollina was out with tendonitis in his
hand.
But it was the kind of show that made you
forget that you were in the “acoustically per
fect" G. Rollie.
On tour in support of their fourth Chrysalis
Records LP, “Fore!,” Huey Lewis and the
News staked out College Station as its own.
The last time this San Francisco Bay area sex
tet was in town, it was the opener for Joan Jett
and the Blackhearts.
Joan who?
Opening for HL&N was Duane Eddy and
the Rebels, who deserve more attention than
they’ll get here.
Suffice it to say that this master of the hit in
strumental recording is still doing it after
more than 30 years.
He closed out his eight-tune warmup with
“Peter Gunn,” the old Henry Mancini compo
sition that was a recent hit for Art of Noise
with Eddy on guitar.
Huey Lewis opened with Bruce Hornsby’s
“Jacob’s Ladder,” got into a bit slower-than-
usual “Heart And Soul” and then paused for a
serious word about the Vietnam War before
getting into the band’s tribute to the Ameri
cans who fought it, “Walking On A Thin Li
ne.”
Surprisingly, one of the real highlights of
the show, was “Naturally” from the new al
bum. It was smooth a cappella and as appre
ciated as anything the band offered. It had to
have been a frustrating experience for anyone
who couldn’t snap their fingers.
Huey then pulled a red wagon containing
an electronic drum synthesizer onstage and,
after cracking some jokes about how they do
their music the old-fashioned way, (they play
it), used it on “Bad Is Bad.”
Appropriately, The Tower of Power Horns
were introduced on “Power Of Love.” They’re
a pair of trumpets and a trio of saxes, also
from the San Francisco Bay area, that added,
that certain spice to the show.
An even more frenzied pitch was reached
during “I Want A New Drug” and the new
“Hip To Be Square.”
Huey Lewis plays to a near sell-out crowd at G.
Rollie White Coliseum Sunday night. Lewis was
The crowd wanted no part of an early eve
ning and fairly shook the place down with re
sponses to Huey’s frequent questioning “Are
you still with me?”
The encores brought on “Doing It All For
My Baby,” “Workin’ For A Livin’,” the current
single “Stuck With You,” and “Back In Time.”
Guitarist Chris Hayes was all over the stage
with his blistering lead play and kept the most
intense expression on his face most of the
time. He was into it. He was really into it on “I
called back for two encores, but these two Hueys
are the result of a double exposure.
Want A New Drug,” launching into a dirty,
get-down, solo introduction that contrasted
tastily with his other work.
And Johnny Colla’s saxophone work was
superb. The saxophones in general added so
much to the music, it’s hard to imagine the
band without them.
By putting on the outstanding show that
Huey Lewis and The News did, they satisfied ,
about as hungry a concert crowd as there is.
A little sax goes a long way.
Golden Girls’ helps NBC take 19 of 31 Emmys
PASADENA, Calif. (AP) — “Cag
ney & Lacey,” CBS’ series about two
tough but sensitive women cops,
eclipsed ABC’s top-nominated
“Moonlighting,” winning best drama
series, actress and supporting actor
Sunday at the 38th Emmy Awards.
NBC, led by first-year hit “Golden
Girls,” took 19 of the 31 awards, in
cluding a clean sweep in comedy.
CBS took 10, including four for
“Cagney & Lacey,” which won its
second straight award as best drama
series. ABC and PBS had one each.
Mario Thomas won as best actress
in a special or miniseries for “No
body’s Child” and Dustin Hoffman
for “Death erf a Salesman,” both on
CBS. “Love is Never Silent,” a “Hall
mark Hall of Fame” presentation on
NBC, was honored as best special
and NBC’s “P,eter the Great” was
best miniseries.
“This was part of my dream,” said
the tearful Gless as she held the stat
uette high above her head at the Pa
sadena Civic Auditorium. Among
those she cited were her co-star,
“who I am sure is the most relieved
woman sitting here tonight.”
Gless plays Christine Cagney, the
NYPD detective partner of Lacey in
the CBS series. For the past three
years, Daly was awarded the Emmy
in the same category for her role as
Mary Beth Lacey.
Betty White of the NBC’s “Golden
Girls” won as best actress in a com
edy series, Michael J. Fox of “Family
Ties ” won for best actor and their
network dominated the category.
Saying that she shared the award
with her co-stars, White said, “we
want to thank the network for taking
a chance on four old broads — uh,
ladies.”
“Golden Girls” was cited for writ
ing, “The Cosby Show” for direc
tion, Rhea Perlman of “Cheers” as
best supporting actress and John
Larroquette of “Night Court” for
best supporting actor.
In a new category, John Lithgow
won as best guest performer for
“The Doll” segment of NBC’s “Am
azing Stories.”
For the second year, William Dan
iels, the dour Dr. Mark Craig of
NBC’s “St. Elsewhere,” was honored
as outstanding lead actor in a drama
series.
His wife, Bonnie Bartlett, was
honored as best supporting actress
in a dramatic series for her work on
the same show.
Daley’s husband, Georg Stanford
Brown, won for best direction on
“Cagney & Lacey,” and John Karlen
who plays Harvey Lacey on the se
ries, won for best supporting actor in
a drama series.
ABC’s “Moonlighting,” which led
all shows with 16 nominations, was
shut out for the key awards in writ
ing, acting, directing and best series,
which were dominated by “St. Else
where” and “Cagney & Lacey.”
