"I do have a big following in the Carteret Police Department; why? I don't know," said Edwin McCain with a large laugh as he readies for his March 20 Carteret Performing Arts and Events Center and March 23 Sellersville Theatre shows. "When we used to play at B.B. King's in the city, so many Carteret cops; I'm actually sitting here looking at my honorary Carteret Police Force pullover, they used to bring us all kinds of swag and it was great. Hopefully we'll see some old friends there but I don't know, it has been so long, they may have retired by now."

LATEST COLUMNS


"She's Like the Wind"

The first thing you'll see upon entering the gallery at Deep Space (77 Cornelison St.) is the shadow-outline of a woman's leg. There it is, on a chartreuse background, sticking straight up in the air with a curvaceous bare foot inches from the ceiling. That's all of the subject of "Lemon Lime Toe of God" that the oil painter Delilah Ray Miske is willing to show us. The rest of the body, she implies, is splayed out on a bed. We know it's summer because the window is closed and the air conditioner is plugged in. There's a pretty good chance that the possessor of the leg is undressed. In one hand, she holds a cellphone, and she might be broadcasting something. On the wall, a small whip-like broomstick hangs. It could be the ride of a tiny witch. It could be the professional tool of a dominatrix.
