Here's what you'll miss if you don't pick up a City Paper this week: FEATURES!
  • Blayer Pointdujour puts down his drumsticks, picks up an MPC and tells A.D. Amorosi about it.
  • Emily Currier reconnects us with Philly's long-lost baby on the doorstep, Darryl "Cornbread" McCray — the graffiti "writer" who's tagged everything from brick walls to an elephant.
COLUMNS!
  • Robin Rice judges Work of Art: The Next Great Artist, Bravo's new reality show that favors the "marketable" and snubs the "conceptual," in Re:View.
  • Peter Burwasser retrospects George Rochberg's eclectic body of work in Suite Spot.
REVIEWS!
  • In this week's Flick Pick, Sam Adams gives Neil Jordan's modern mermaid tale Ondine an A- for seamlessly coupling fantasy and reality.
  • Janet Anderson was so entranced by the Pennsylvania Ballet's rendition of Romeo and Juliet, she could "practically hear Shakespeare's words."
  • David Anthony Fox calls the Arden Theatre Co.'s production of Sunday in the Park with George, a play about Georges Seurat and his modern doppelganger, "one of the wonders of modern theater."
  • Album Reviews on hollAnd, Blitzen Trapper, Harvey Milk, and What Cheer? Brigade.
  • Movie Shorts on Breathless, The Karate Kid and Solitary Man.
AND THEN THERE'S ...
  • Kaleidoscope quick hits on Eli "Paperboy" Reed, the music act/slasher film that is Pocahaunted, Jaamil Kosoko's Or Maybe My Mother Was an American Chameleon? and Dave Tompkins' new book, How To Wreck a Nice Beach.
  • Music Picks on Stephan Crump's Rosetta Trio, Sally Seltmann and many more.
  • Arts Picks on The Opera Company of Philadelphia's Orphée et Eurydice and a photography competition titled "Daydream Nation."
