Edgar Gives Rauner an

Unexpected State-Fair Boost

by Rich Miller

CapitolFaxcomILLINOIS POLITICS

Irsquom not sure why but the surprise appear-ance by former Governor Jim Edgar at theIllinois State Fairrsquos Republican Day last

week didnrsquot generate much media coverageDespite the fact that Edgar is a Republican

this was not an easy ldquogetrdquo for Republicangubernatorial nominee Bruce Rauner Irsquomtold it took weeks of careful wooing andnegotiations through one ofEdgarrsquos cronies Edgar backed

state Senator Kirk Dillard in theGOP primary against Raunerand he has also expressedpublic and private concernsabout how Rauner is portrayinghimself on the stump andabout how that confrontationalattitude could manifest itself ifhersquos elected governor

Another reason why Irsquomperplexed by the lack ofcoverage is that DemocraticGovernor Pat Quinn has repeatedly goneout of his way to praise Edgar since DillardrsquosRepublican-primary loss Quinn consultedwith Edgar before his post-primary budgetaddress seeking his advice on keeping theincome tax at current levels and providingsome property-tax relief Quinn thenmentioned Edgar by name during his actualaddress saying the former governor wasright to keep a tax hike in place

If Quinn was hoping to somehow

neutralize the still-popular Edgar he failedmiserably Edgar said at the State Fair lastweek that not only did Rauner have anopportunity to finally end one-party rule butthat ldquothe Blagojevich-Quinn governorshiphas been a disaster for Illinoisrdquo

Oh man thatrsquos gonna leave a markldquoOutsidersrdquo can make some Illinoisans

uncomfortable Despite the blathering ofeditorial boards and pundits quite a few voters here subconsciously or otherwise still

ldquodonrsquot want nobody that nobody sentrdquo TheEdgar endorsement could go a very longway toward soothing fears of moderate toliberal independents that Rauner may be justtoo new too unknown and too risky to betrusted with the office

Meanwhile four years ago I wrote thatQuinn wouldnrsquot know a campaign themeif it was bleeding to death in his front yardHis 2010 State Fair Governorrsquos Day speechwas rambling disjointed and unfocused

Not this year Quinnrsquos theme so far is prettydarned clear Bruce Rauner is an out-of-touch billionaire whose policies would harmworking people

But can it work So far the attacks seem juvenile catty and poorly produced ldquoLook

Over there Rauner is rich Hersquos rich I tellsyardquo

The Quinn campaign appears to befollowing the Obama 2012 script very closely(and that script was based in part on Quinnrsquos2010 campaign against Bill Brady) The firstthing they have to do is establish in votersrsquominds that Rauner is a plutocrat Once that

message is baked in thebig hits connecting him to

nursing-home and hospitaldeaths and whatever elsethe Quinnsters have in theiropposition-research files canbe dumped on Raunerrsquos head

The political professionalswho attended Governorrsquos Daythis year werenrsquot confident atall that Quinn could pull thisoff Then again they had zeroconfidence in Quinn fouryears ago and he managed

to edge out Brady But of course therersquos nothird-party candidate willing to spend closeto $4 million and split the anti-Quinn votewith the GOP nominee this year as there wasin 2010

In contrast the GOP operatives whoattended Republican Day four years ago wereupbeat and hopeful but quite concernedabout the physical mechanics of Bradyrsquoscampaign Those fears turned out to be justified This time around there were few if

any fears expressed about the way their guy isrunning his show

And probably for good reason TheRauner folks say that the RepublicanGovernors Association has been trackingthe number of contacts made at the doorsby GOP gubernatorial campaigns Raunerrsquosdoor-to-door contact effort so far ranksnumber-one in the nation ndash even ahead ofTexas which has a far larger population thanIllinois

Rauner by the way left after his State Fairappearance for a 38-county bus blitz throughDownstate Illinois The schedule looks brutal

The idea is to pack in as many Downstateappearances before Labor Day and thenfocus on the Chicago media market untilNovember Itrsquos the smart move becauseDownstate is so huge that it canrsquot be easilyand quickly traversed

The governor on the other hand hasfocused much of his summertime attentionon the Chicago area perhaps because pollsshow he has real trouble with his Democraticldquobaserdquo

Jumerrsquos Boosted the Local Casino Market ndash but It Canrsquot Hide the Quad Citiesrsquo Decade of Decline

The Shrinking Gambling Pieby Jeff Ignatius

jeffrcreadercom

Itrsquos long been an articleof faith with me thatthe seemingly perpetual

growth in the number ofstate-sponsored gamblingoutlets is poor public pol-icy Common sense saysthat the amount of moneypeople will spend on thesegames has a ceiling ndash onethat wersquove almost certainlyreached by now

If thatrsquos correct thenfurther expansion oflegalized gamblingis a foolrsquos errand asthe money generatedby it wonrsquot increasemeaningfully Oncegambling has reacheda saturation point in aregion revenues will just

get shifted from gamingcompany to gamingcompany and state to stateand local government tolocal government

But like all articlesof faith I had no prooffor my hypothesis SoI decided to test it andthe Quad Cities marketseemed like an excellent

laboratoryWhat is now the Isle of

Capri casino in Bettendorfopened in April 1995 ndashmaking us a three-casino community(Irsquoll refer to the casinos by their presentnames throughout this article) We nowhave almost two decades of gaminginformation with the three-casinomarketplace and a handful of variablesallow us to see what happened here when

this happened there the December 2008move of Jumerrsquos from downtown RockIsland to Interstate 280 the recession thathit in 2007-8 new casino competitors ineastern Iowa in 2006 and 2007 and the2012 introduction of video-gamblingmachines in Illinois outside of casinos

What I found didnrsquot exactly support myhypothesis of a Quad Cities gambling piewith a fixed size Rather the data suggestthere are ways to add new customers tothe local gambling market ndash but that the

pie has nonetheless been shrinking for adecade

The health of our casinos is a matterof public concern The Quad Citiesrsquogambling outlets are major employers

and tourist attractions They pay propertyand gambling taxes ndash revenue that stateand local governments rely on If thecasinos continue their long-term slide inthe face of more gambling competitionitrsquos not just casino companies whoserevenues will fall

In the next few years however you canexpect some growth in the local casinobusiness The move of Davenportrsquos casinofrom the riverfront to an Interstate 80location and the Isle of Caprirsquos plan tobuild a land-based casino to replace itscurrent boat will almost certainly boosttheir ownersrsquo and their communitiesrsquorevenues

But history says the gains wonrsquot lastldquoEveryone is hoping that it [the local

gambling market] is going to expandbut if you take a look at whatrsquos been

happening thatrsquos not the direction thatitrsquos goingrdquo said Bill Renk the directorof public relations and promotion forJumerrsquos Casino amp Hotel ldquoSo therersquoll be ashift and redistribution of market shares

but it will be a challenge to grow themarket in light of whatrsquos happeningrdquo

The Big NumbersFor the 18 most recent full years (1996

through 2013) admissions at QuadCities casinos totaled more than 67million ndash or more than 37 million visits

per year (Iowa tabulates its attendanceand revenue totals on a July-to-Junefiscal-year basis while Illinois works withcalendar years)

For the same period the net amountof money casinos took in totaled $349billion or almost $194 million peryear This figure is called AdjustedGross Revenue in Iowa and AdjustedGross Receipts in Illinois but theyrsquorefundamentally the same thing for

simplicity wersquoll call it AGR Gamblerscollectively win back a little more than90 percent of their wagers at our casinosand the remainder is AGR

But AGR is not the casino companiesrsquo

profit they have employees and other

costs Renk defined AGR as ldquothe casino

win before we pay any billsrdquo (I called

Renk to ensure I wasnrsquot misreading the

numbers but also because Jumerrsquos is

responsible for the largest change in

the local market ndash and is most directly

affected by legalized video gambling in

Illinois)One significant cost for casinos is

gambling taxes ndash the primary reason local

residents should be concerned about the

current downward trend And over these

18 years the total to local governments

in the Quad Cities has been more

than $825 million from casinos State

governments have received more than

$648 million Thatrsquos $731 million ndash more

than $40 million a year ndash that gamblers in

the Quad Cities have forked over in taxesAlmost 21 percent of AGR has gone to

government

The Ups and Downs of QC CasinosFrom the point we became a three-casino community in 1995 the Quad Cities gambling market had steadily growing revenue (with a fewbumps) for roughly a decade ndash and then each propertyrsquos numbers began to decline Only Jumerrsquos revenues are better now than they were 10

years ago and thatrsquos entirely a function of its new Interstate casino Below are the Adjusted Gross RevenuesReceipts ndash or AGR ndash for the three

Jordan Danielsen Old SoulAfter the willful variety of Jordan Danielsenrsquos

2011 album Night Alone in the City his new OldSoul record certainly benefits from a consistent

style 12 unerringly pleasant tracks anchored

by the singersongwriterrsquos clear clean slightly

twangy voice and mostly an acoustic guitar

Yet its comforting tone becomes somewhat

suffocating over the albumrsquos length and when

the songs call for a shift to the dark the gentle

arrangements and careful polish underminethem

The second track ldquoNinnianrsquos Balladrdquo

summarizes those problems ndash an approachable

folk tune aspiring to huge resonance (ldquoI joined

the cause and fought the union fight For a

higher wage and a human rightrdquo) but lacking the

telling detail to earn it Even more problematic is

that the singing and music exude hope while the

lyrics document struggle death and eventually

cancer The ultimate peace the song finds canrsquot

bridge the gulf between medium and messageTherersquos a similar tonal disconnect on ldquoRainy

Days Are Good Days for Playing Sad Sad

Songsrdquo with the words at odds with the the

upbeat rootsy rock and Danielsenrsquos friendly

voice The phrase ldquosweet depressionrdquo carries an

air of condescension as if being miserable were

somehow the coolest thing in the world

But if Danielsen canrsquot yet pull off being

heavy Old Soul also shows off his considerable

wheelhouse

ldquoDenver Coloradordquo has a soulful James Taylor vibe dexterity in the vocals and a striking

counter-melody in the guitar during the chorus

ldquoUs My Loverdquo starts with a great couplet ndash

ldquoYoursquove got a flicker in your mind And I got

metal in my bonesrdquo ndash and the piano melody

poised against the rhythm ukulele casts an

enchanting tropical spell

ldquoThe Shape Irsquom inrdquo is almost unbearably

bright in the restrained joy of its singing nimble

fiddle and warm guitar ndash crafting a great groove

without forcing it

Danielsenrsquos skill in finding the right musical

details in light instrumentation plays best with

simple ideas and feelings ndash as on the closing title

track and the melancholy unburdened by angst

of ldquoCarolynnrdquo The singersongwriter is at his

strongest when he works small

Jordan Danielsen will perform from 9 pm to

midnight on Thursday August 21 at 11th Street

Precinct (1107 Mound Street Davenport) with

Jef Spradley and from 5 to 8 pm on Saturday

August 23 at Do the Brew (Sheridan MeadowsPark Eldridge) with Carolynn Johnston

Irsquove written about four releases from Sean

Ryan over the past six years ndash as a solo singer

songwriter as part of Jim the Mule and asthe leader of the Dawn (and Sean Ryan amp the

Dawn) Irsquove always liked his singing voice ndash a

mature blend of authority precision and expres-

sion But with much of his work as a solo act and

bandleader Irsquove found the combination of stan-

dard Americana arrangements and plain-spoken

writing dully professional ndash not vivid enough to

avoid the generic

So the new six-track Waiting on the Storm

album from the Dawn came as a pleasant

surprise ndash in particular the expansive rockerldquoBring It All Homerdquo a forceful jam that oozes

personality and life and has a clear if winding

path An album full of similar songs would

quickly become tiresome but as a startling

change-up from Ryanrsquos past work it reverberates

through the entire record

Each track on the album actually feels

designed to showcase a different facet of Ryan

and his band ndash keyboardistsinger Jordan

VanOpdorp bassistsinger Garrin Jost and

drummer Josh Womack But for the keyboardsthe slinky hooky opener ldquoFreezeframerdquo sounds

like a tribute to the disbanded Jim the Mule

ldquoTroubled Daysrdquo is an up-tempo shit-kicker

ldquoPhasesrdquo has a flair for soulful funk rock And

the title track with its slightly unsteady falsetto

languid pace and delicate piano flourishes is

poised alluringly between liquid and air until the

commanding electric guitar places it firmly on

the ground

Only ldquoCold Rain Ice amp Snowrdquo conforms to

what I would have expected from Ryan And

while that song might have melted into previous

albums it jumps out here as a contrast and a

reminder that Ryanrsquos voice is most potent in

simple settings The key to its success here is

that it represents a breather and alludes to the

core of Ryanrsquos music rather than merely being an

encapsulation of it

But ldquoBring It All Homerdquo is the undoubted

highlight rooted in Americana but growing

far beyond it At the outset it shows a sturdy

framework the thick organ-y keyboards

contrasting with biting guitar and a sinuoussinging style to create a serious groove The

fluid expressive piercing opening guitar solo

would have been the unsurprising climax of

a lesser song but here itrsquos merely the table-

Ilove Yazmina

Rezarsquos lsquoArt rsquo My

infatuation with

the playwrightrsquos

script started four

years ago when the

piece was produced

by the Curtainbox

Theatre Company

and it brought me

great delight to hearthat the QC Theatre Workshop and director

Tyson Danner planned to stage the play with

the same cast that performed the material for

the Curtainbox

Friday night as I settled into my seat I took

time to marvel at scenic designer Tyler Reinertrsquos

set which is itself a work of art Hersquos painted the

walls as stained aged cement sectioned to look

like giant blocks and these walls are separated

by tall white-washed brick pillars marking

the edges of a wooden-floored minimally

decorated room containing two metal benches

and a sofa table While artistic in and of itself

the space also looks as if itrsquos a room in an art

museum one ready to display masterpieces

In lsquoArt rsquo the space ndash considering it functions

as three separate apartments during the play

ndash is primarily the home to a newly acquired

Antrios artwork purchased for $200000 by

Serge (Reader employee Mike Schulz) a work

that looks like a canvas painted entirely white

The painting which Serge insists isnot white

becomes the catalyst for the long-gestatingdemise of the friendship between Serge and

Marc (Adam Michael Lewis) with Marc seeing

the canvas as a representation of what Serge

has become which is someone Marc no longer

likes

Schulz who seems comfortable in Sergersquos

pretentious skin really shines when his

character gets excited about sharing ldquothe

Antriosrdquo His childlike giddiness is clear not

only in his voice but in the twinkle in his eyes

and the flush in his face His most enjoyablemoments however come when Serge and

Marc square off as Schulzrsquos smug barely

contained disdain meets Lewisrsquo uncontained

dismissal of Serge and his independent tastes

that are out of line with Marcrsquos The contrast

of Schulzrsquos attempts at self-control and Lewisrsquo

willingness to let his displeasure be clearly

known is a highlight of the performance

with Serge and Marc exchanging increasingly

personal barbs ndash over the painting the

minutiae of its intention and the intonation

behind one anotherrsquos specific words Despite

each characterrsquos self-importance and self-

absorption their arguments are utterly

hilariously ridiculous

by the inclusion

of Yvan (Aaron

Randolph III) in

the friendship

mix Randolphrsquos

awkward much

less refined figure

seems a plaything

for Serge and Marc

a jester for theirentertainment as the ways in which they toy

with his attentions and demand his loyalty

suggest that hersquos obviously beneath them

Dressed in business-casual attire by costume

designer Kristin Meyer ndash as opposed to the

button-up shirts and suit jackets of Serge and

Marc ndash Yvan is the audiencersquos connection to

the proceedings the sympathetic doorway into

the uppity world of the two other characters

Itrsquos easy to feel for him as Serge and Marc play

tennis with his friendship both attempting to

keep him in their own court

This sympathy comes even easier because

of the way Randolph portrays Yvan hersquos

charmingly unassuming and good-natured

Even his moments of outrage are adorable

particularly when he gets so shaken up that

he literally ndash and probably unintentionally

ndash shakes the eyeglasses off his face which

happened at least three times during Fridayrsquos

performance His rants and fits including a

lengthy explanation about the frustrations of

including his step-mothersand his mother onhis wedding invitations have the cadences and

inflections of a nice-guy version of Lewis Black

My partner and I were in almost-constant fits

of giggling whenever Randolph spokeAs funny as the show is itrsquos also poignant

particularly in its examination of friendshipThe QC Theatre Workshoprsquos most affectingmoment is one I cannot divulge here but wishthat I could because itrsquos one of those rare timesin which a showrsquos lighting delivers a message

Thursdayrsquos audiencecertainly enjoyedthe Richmond Hill

Barn Theatrersquos Leading

Ladies judging by their

loud snorts and uninhib-

ited guffaws Ken Ludwigprovides plenty of fodder

for laughter as do director

Tom Vaccaro and his cast

who hit the comedyrsquos high

notes pitch-perfectly As

for me I didnrsquot just gigglebut laughed heartily right

along with the rest of the

crowd at least a dozen

times

Thatrsquos not to saythough that I laughed consistently throughout

the performance Ludwig takes a long time

to set up Leading Ladiesrsquo premise of two male

Shakespearean actors attempting to fool a

wealthy dying widow into believing theyrsquore her

long-lost nieces The play starts with a sceneinvolving the ingeacutenue Meg (Sarah Ade Wallace)

and her uncomfortably too-old-for-her fianceacute

Duncan (Andy Davis) a compassionless

mistrusting and judgmental reverend Theyrsquore

running late for a performance of Scenes fromShakespeare at the local Moose Lodge which

features the aforementioned actors Leo and Jack

(Jonathan Grafft and Nathan Johnson)

Wersquore next whisked away to Leorsquos and Jackrsquos

performance where we find out that theyrsquoresuch bad actors that their entire audience would

rather take to the buffet across the street thanendure another moment of poor deliveries and

even poorer sword-fighting skills Then wersquore

on a train where Leo and Jack lament their

lack of funds and Leo discovers an article abouta wealthy woman ndash Jackie Skilesrsquo ridiculously

hilarious crotchety old bat Florence ndash looking for

her missing heirs The actors subsequently plot

to convince Florence that theyrsquore her nephews

only to find out from Mallory Parkrsquos assertive butairheaded Audrey a fellow train passenger that

Florence is actually looking for nieces

This is when we finally get to the good stuffAfter those three scenes that felt long and dull

and filled with extraneous exposition Leo and

Jack appear as Maxine and Stephanie dressedin costumes pulled from their Shakespeare

performances (Just the sight of Grafft dressed

as a sexy Cleopatra and Johnson in a getup

that looks like a childrenrsquos-Halloween-costume

version of Titania the Fairy Queen is worththe showrsquos ticket price) Grafft then pulls off a

passable attempt at employing the mannerisms

of a lady while using his falsetto while Johnsonplaying deaf and dumb seems more awkward in

drag to great comedic effect Theirs is a comedy

duo with Grafft as the straight man ndash er womanndash and Johnson as the funny one (which is never

more apparent than when he performs Pee Wee



Drag of a KindLeading Ladies at the Richmond Hill Barn Theatre through August 24

Hermanrsquos ldquoTequilardquo dancelater in the play) Therest of the story involves

these two men ndash dressed

in smart matronly

manhood-hiding choices

by costumers SuzanneDeRue and Jeff Blackwell

ndash attempting to win

Florence over while also

befriending and in an

expected clicheacute falling in

love with women whilein drag Leo with Meg

and Jack with Audrey

There are hearty

laughs involving plenty

of sexual situationsand innuendo including everything said

by the smart-mouthed Doc (Stan Weimer)

who mistakenly and repeatedly pronounces

Florence dead (ldquoShe had no pulse Then she

got betterrdquo) Grafft also has some great moments

as his Maxine demonstrates a quick wit suchas when Doc says that his daughter Audrey

will marry Josh Wielengarsquos Butch over his dead

body and Maxine replies ldquoThat would be an

odd ceremonyrdquo This is also the funniest Irsquove

seen Skiles on the Richmond Hill stage withher gravely-voiced angst-ridden proclamations

barked at the other characters

However there are also more boring sections

as well as annoying scripting such as the

moment in which Audrey asked to give a letter

to Duncan to trick him into seducing Stephanie

Jack spills on it and says something along thelines of ldquoOh no Irsquove spilled something on the

letter and smudged the writing and canrsquot see

the name on itrdquo (Really Mr Ludwig) The

evening which already feels a bit long despite

the occasional raucous laughter then ends with

a fast-paced recreation of the playrsquos scenes inreverse order as the actors rush around and

freeze in tableaux of the productionrsquos most

memorable points ndash which are apparently all of

them While sometimes funnier than the play

itself I also found this irritating We just saw

this so why do we need to see it all again (Italso left the crowd clapping for longer than was

comfortable as there was uncertainty whether

this was the curtain call)

In the end I left Richmond Hillrsquos Leading

Ladies torn as to whether or not I liked it While

For me theCirca rsquo21Dinner

Playhousersquos Boot-leggersrsquo show is abi-annual delightItrsquos a treat to seethe men andwomen who serveour salads drinksand desserts all

year ndash and whoperform for a fewminutes prior to each production ndash get theirown show This is their chance to shine andwhile Blame It On the Movies isnrsquot quite asfun overall as past Bootlegger revues itscast proves that they deserve more time inthe spotlight

Conceived by Ron Abel Billy Barnesand David Galligan this musical revue isa collection of songs from movies releasedthroughout the 20th Century as well as afew original Barnes compositions to help tiethe theme together And to be frank I wasbored by the start of August 7rsquos intermissionnot due to poor performances but because Iknew only two of the 20-plus songs includedin the first act On top of that the early- tomid-20th Century compositions share asimilar tone so even though there are a fewrelatively upbeat numbers the first half ofthe evening feels a bit monotonous

Still there are notable early moments

including Antoinette Holmanrsquos soulfuldelivery of songs included in the ldquoJungleMedleyrdquo and every number so earnestlyperformed by Jennifer Diab who seems tohold nothing back as she belts out ldquoDreamrdquoand the ldquoForeign-Film Crossoverrdquo as ifshersquos declaring ldquoThis is my chance to be inthe spotlight and damn if Irsquom not going tomake it countrdquo Directorchoreographer JimHesselman stages a rousing number thatfeatures the entire ensemble tapping their

toes while singing ldquoShoo Shoo Babyrdquo SaraNicks Brad Hauskins Marc Ciemiewicz andChris Galvaacuten share a bit of their comedictalents in ldquoKalamazoordquo which Hesselmanpresents as a oneupmanship number withthe men vying for Nicksrsquo attention SunshineRamsey even tones down her impressive beltfor a humor-filled physical-comedy take onldquoI Get the Neck of the Gooserdquo

The evening didnrsquot fully come alive for mehowever until the second act which is filled

mostly with songs I have heard before andsongs of varied genres and tempos whichhelps significantly Kirsten Sindelarrsquos spunkyldquoLetrsquos Hear It for the Boyrdquo from Footlooseis a much-needed dash of pepper whileHauskinsrsquo gentle guitar playing and soothing



Cinema ScopeBlame It on the Movies at the Circa lsquo21 Dinner Playhouse through August 28

stylings onTootsiersquos ldquoItMight Be Yourdquoadd a good bitof heart to themix Hauskinsalso blends wellharmonicallywith Galvaacutenand NicholasMunson on the

titular ldquoTownWithout PityrdquoWhile I prefer the actorrsquos silly comicality

Ciemiewiczrsquos ldquoHow Do You Keep theMusicrdquo number allows him to show asofter side as he delivers the ballad withpitch precision and lilting emotion MorganGriffinrsquos tight vibratto adds a personal touchto her ldquoWalk on the Wild Siderdquo while herldquoOscar Losers Crossoverrdquo had me smilingfrom ear-to-ear for the humor of the piece

And the highlight of the eveningrsquos secondhalf at least for me is the soulfully sultryrendition of The Color Purplersquos ldquoMiss CeliersquosBluesrdquo performed by Holman Sarah HayesRamsey (who finally lets her vocals loose)and Andrea Moore Not only do thesewomen impress with their solos but theirharmonies are so beautifully blended thatthey penetrate to the very soul

My only issue with the stagingmeanwhile is Hesselmanrsquos take on Act IrsquosldquoYoursquoll Never Knowrdquo Munsonrsquos rich tone is

impressive as each of the female performersapproaches him with notes or headshotsto demonstrate their affection for himThe song ends however with Ciemiewiczdoing the same thing and Munson lookinguncomfortable which had the audiencelaughing but seemed to me lazy humor atthe expense of same-sex relationships WhileCiemiewicz and Munson play it cute and thebit played well to the audience I still wonderwhen something as simple as same-sex

affection is no longer fodder for laughterThat small joke though takes up just a

few seconds of Circa rsquo21rsquos presentation ofBlame It On the Movies and isnrsquot enoughto throw the baby out with the bathwater Ileft the performance with a big smile on myface singing ldquoLetrsquos Hear It for the Boyrdquo andldquoMiss Celiersquos Bluesrdquo all the way home whilealso looking forward to my next opportunityto see the Bootleggers perform

THE EXPENDABLES 3To date Sylvester Stallone has played

director Patrick Hughesrsquo Expendables 3though is that even with all the buildingsexploding and all the nameless extrasbeing blown to smithereens it continuallyexudes a dispiriting going-through-the-motions blandness If the first seniors-on-parade blockbuster felt panicked (ldquoArewe pulling this offrdquo) and the secondcelebratory (ldquoWe pulled it offrdquo) thisnew outing just seems resigned Theaction set pieces are at best perfunctoryndash there isnrsquot one truly memorable fightor battle sequence in the whole of itstwo-plus hours ndash and the performersrsquogeniality in general is starting to appearindistinguishable from laziness Every timeSly and Ah-nuld the last of the cigar-chomping he-men in modern movieslight their famed stogies here you senseitrsquos just because the stars felt like having acigar damn it and didnrsquot particularly carewhether it happened on-screen or not

Tom Parkinsonrsquos hardcore-rockband Relentless Approach

based in Omaha Nebraska hastoured the Midwest for the pastsix years And when the musicianwho spends much time in the QuadCities had the idea to gather like-minded artists for a two-day musiccelebration he chose Rock IslandrsquosRozz-Tox to serve as host venueBut given the roster of performersinvolved in his August 29 and 30event whatrsquos resulted isnrsquot justanother area summer-music festivalItrsquos a freakinrsquo summertime palooza

ldquoWithin the punk and hardcorecommunityrdquo says Parkinson of Rozz-Toxrsquos forthcoming Parkypaloozaldquofestivals of this size are prettycommon And I noticed that the

independent DIY

scene here in theQuad Cities was reallygrowing So I thoughtthis would be a greatway to bring in myfriends that I had met

while my band has been touring theMidwest ndash a lot of old friends anda lot of new friends ndash and we couldhave a pretty fun timerdquo

Given the lineup that Parkinson

While Parkypaloozarsquos bands willplay both Rozz-Toxrsquos main room andupstairs level its organizer is holdingoff an announcing specific times orlocations for the individual acts ldquoIdo have a lineup kind of figured outrdquohe says ldquobut up until the date Irsquollprobably be shuffling bands aroundI do kind of want to discourage

picking and choosing I want peopleto come to all of itrdquo

Adding that ldquoRozz-Tox is one of

the best venues in the Quad Cities

and this really couldnrsquot happen

anywhere else in the Quad Citiesrdquo

Parkinson is justifiably excited about

Parkypalooza ndash if perhaps just a

bit bashful about its name ldquoI donrsquot

the most appealing-sounding for lack

of a better one Irsquove been called Parky

Describing Polyrhythms as ldquoa grassroots nonprofit groupof community- and cultural-arts advocatesrdquo Lawrence saysldquoEverybodyrsquos history and their self-worth is in whatrsquos aroundthem and thatrsquos what we want to celebrate with our first really

What Else Is Happeninrsquo






Renk said hersquos skeptical that the local

casinos can rebound to or past theirprevious primes ldquoAre you going tore-peak I donrsquot see it in the foreseeablefuturerdquo

But there are reasons for optimismhe added ldquoThe market is still healthyenough that we [the three local casinos]can all be here Wersquove got something tocompete forrdquo

Is It the Economy StupidThe most-obvious explanation for the

decline in local gambling would seem tobe the economy specifically the GreatRecession that started in late 2007 Thecomplicating factor in evaluating that isthe new Jumerrsquos casino

But the market-wide gaming slidepre-dates the official beginning of therecession ndash and the opening of the newJumerrsquos ndash by several years Itrsquos certainlypossible that disposable income as

measured by how much money peoplespend on gambling is the proverbialcanary in the coal mine that gamblingspending in the Quad Cities was an earlysign of economic distress

But there are other factors to considertoo such as increased competition fromthe opening of two eastern-Iowa casinosthe Riverside Casino amp Golf Resort inAugust 2006 and the Isle Casino HotelWaterloo in June 2007 The timing of

those new players in the marketplacealigns more closely than the recessionwith the decline in admissions and AGRat Quad Cities casinos

And Renk said the slide also reflectsthe novelty of casinos wearing off withcustomers after more than a decade ndash andthe aging of the casinosrsquo customer base

The real test of the effect of theeconomy on gambling revenues inthe Quad Cities will be whether they

rebound significantly and collectivelyalong with improved household financesDetermining that will require answers

to some key questions Will Davenportrsquosnew casino bring gamblers to thecommunity or will it merely suck upgamblers already spending their moneyin the Quad Cities Can the Isle reverseits fortunes with a new land-basedcasino at its riverfront site And canJumerrsquos hold its own against revitalizedcompetitors

Most importantly will any short-termgains be sustained beyond the first fewyears

Assuming that the economy continuesto improve over the next decade the

significance of the recession on casino

revenues will become clearer In 10 yearsmarket-wide stability (or growth) in AGRwould indicate that the recession didindeed drag our local gambling outletsdown But a continuation of the presenttrend would suggest that the economywas less a factor than gambling saturationand fatigue

The Convenience FactorIf the economy is a question mark

in this discussion the legalization of video gambling outside of casinos is anexclamation point

Since video-gaming was introducedin Illinois in late 2012 convenientopportunities for gamblers to spend theirmoney have exploded From July 2013to June 2014 Rock Island County had96 video-gambling licensees generating$612 million in net wagers (Thatrsquos themoney played minus winnings) From its

debut net wagers in Rock Island Countyhave totaled $738 million

Of that total the state has gotten $184million and local governments $369000

From a revenue standpoint there arethree key differences between videogambling and casinos

First because itrsquos spread throughoutthe county the local-government fundsare more widely dispersed ndash to 11 localgovernments

Second because itrsquos taxed at a higherrate (25 percent to the state and 5 percentto the local government) video gamblingis more lucrative ndash at least for thestate (Local governments get a smallershare of net wagers than with casinosbut nearly all of them are now gettingsomething rather than nothing so youwonrsquot hear them complain)

Third because video gamblinghappens at bars and restaurants (among

other places) the profits from it stay inthe local economy rather than going tocasino companies

Video gambling is spreading thewealth in other words ndash at the expenseof casinos

But itrsquos essential to understand that therecent losses Quad Cities casinos haveexperienced cannot be solely blamed onlocal video gambling AGR dropped $10million at area casinos in 2013 alone ndashfar more than the $7-million-plus netwagers on Rock Island County videogambling during an even longer periodAnd certainly a significant portion ofpeople gambling in bars and restaurantswould not have gone to a casino

period difference of six months the Iowa

numbers include only seven monthswhen the Jumerrsquos interstate casino was inoperation)

Comparing 2008 to 2010 figures Iowacasinorsquos bled almost 294000 admissionsand more than $201-million AGR whenthe Illinois casino moved while Jumerrsquosgrew by more than 713000 admissionsand $451-million AGR Thatrsquos not justmoving gamblers from one local casinoto another

The Troubling TrendOver Time

Yet Jumerrsquos immediate gains onlyexpanded the gambling markettemporarily ndash and canrsquot hide a long-term trend of decline for local-casinoadmissions and AGR

Admissions for the combined threecasinos peaked in 2000 at 435 million In

2013 they were 309 million ndash a declineof nearly 29 percentAGR for the combined three casinos

topped out in 2005 at $222 million ndashthe reporting period for the year aftercruising requirements were lifted forIowa casinos In 2013 combined AGRwas $204 million ndash a drop of more than 8percent from 2005 State-government taxrevenue also hit its highest point in 2005at $419 million

Because Illinoisrsquo casino distribution ismore generous to local government thecombined local taxes from casino-gamingrevenue peaked at $689 million in 2012largely because the AGR for Jumerrsquos hit ahigh of $878 million that year

From 2010 to 2013 our three casinosdropped almost 394000 admissionsand $815 million in AGR ndash despite therelatively new Jumerrsquos casino at a more-attractive location AGR at Jumerrsquos wasactually higher in 2013 compared to 2010

but dropped from 2012 to 2013Admissions at Isle of Capri have

been on a steady slide since 2000 andat Rhythm City since 2002 AGR hasbeen dropping at Isle of Capri since2004 and at Rhythm City since 2005The new Jumerrsquos undoubtedly buoyedthe entire market but the reality is thatthe pie for casinos is getting smaller(In that context communities are wiseto secure guaranteed funding andor

additional financial concessions fromgambling companies when they havethe opportunity as Davenport and theRiverboat Development Authority didwith the cityrsquos new casino operator)


State Against StateWith two casinos on the Iowa side ofthe Mississippi and one on the Illinoisside those figures arenrsquot distributedevenly Each state has its own formula fordivvying up gambling revenue furtherskewing distributions

From 1996 to 2013 Rhythm City andIsle of Capri had combined admissionsof 518 million while Jumerrsquos hadadmissions of 157 million Iowa casinostherefore accounted for 767 percent of

admissionsIn a similar breakdown Rhythm City

and Isle of Capri had combined AGR of$269 billion during the period whileJumerrsquos had $802 million ndash meaning thatIowa casinos got 770 percent of AGR

State-government revenue was $508million for Iowa and $140 million forIllinois ndash a 784-percent share for Iowa

But even though our Iowa casinos hadmore than three-quarters of market share

for the period in both admissions andAGR local government in Illinois hasbenefited far more The local-governmentshare of Quad Cities casino revenues wasonly $267 million in Iowa comparedto $558 million in Illinois ndash a reversalof market dynamics in which Illinoisaccounts for two-thirds of gambling taxesto local government

One Major ChangeLooking at admissions and revenuesover nearly two decades ignores that ourlocal market changed dramatically whenJumerrsquos moved to Interstate 280 Thecasino essentially doubled its businesswith the move going from 623000admissions and $358-million AGRin calendar year 2007 to 126-millionadmissions and $705-million AGR

in calendar year 2009 ndash the Interstate

casinorsquos first full year of operation Itslocal market share by both measureswent from below 20 percent to roughly40 percent ndash meaning that it went frombeing the arearsquos third-place casino to itstop performer

And herersquos where my hypothesis of agambling pie of a fixed size breaks downbecause Jumerrsquos in fact brought newbusiness to the local market ndash at least inthe short term In 2009 our Iowa casinoslost nearly 185000 admissions comparedto the previous year while Jumerrsquos addedmore than 587000 AGR in the Iowacasinos dropped $607 million whileJumerrsquos added $362 million (Again

these figures represent a reporting-

Under New AngerManagement

When my boyfriend and I started dating

he was kind of a hothead His first encounter

with my friends was a game of touch football

on the beach He and another guy collided

and he lost his temper There was a good bit

of yelling and I think people were pretty

shocked To his credit he realized he had an

anger problem Over time he has worked

hard on it and now he doesnrsquot blow upanymore He really is a changed man and I

thought people would recognize it but Irsquove

recently learned that they all still see him

as the scary-angry guy Is there any way to

change that

ndash Asking for a Second Chance

In touch football yoursquore only supposedto put a hand or two on another player ndash asopposed to oh tearing out his soul with yourbare hands grinding it into a fine powder andsprinkling it on your corn flakes

Sure in the months following that friendlySunday-afternoon death match your friendshad various opportunities to see that yourboyfriendrsquos changed Sadly this probably hasnrsquotmade the slightest dent in their opinion ofhim thanks to our brainrsquos penchant for energy
