Guitarist Keith Howland, Keyboardist Lou Pardini Leave Chicago

Guitarist Keith Howland and keyboardist Lou Pardini have left the band Chicago.

Their departures continue a recent revolving door through which bassist Jason Scheff exited in 2016 (he joined in 1985); drummer Tris Imboden in 2018 (1990); percussionist Daniel de los Reyes in 2018 after returning to his former band earlier that year; and bassist Jeff Coffey, also in 2018 after joining in ’16.

Howland, who joined the group in 1995, left quietly in December 2021 after breaking his arm just before a gig. He’s been replaced by Tony Obrohta, who appears on the band’s website without biographical information.

Howland said he is “honored and blessed to be part of the legacy that is Chicago” and is weighing his options as he recovers.

“You may see me pop up musically here and there, but we shall see how that comes to fruition,” Howland said in a Facebook post.

Pardini, a member of the hard-touring band since 2009, announced his departure between gigs as Chicago is off until a Las Vegas residency begins Feb. 16. He called his tenure “a great and wild ride” without giving a reason for his exit.

“As one chapter ends, a new one begins,” Pardini wrote on Facebook. “These crazy times, with so many of us staying a little closer to home, have given me the opportunity to create a lot of new music and I look forward to sharing this and other surprises with you very soon.”

The 10-piece band - which has three original members in keyboardist Robert Lamm and horn players James Pankow and Lee Loughnane - hasn’t commented; Pardini was still listed as a member on the website as Sound Bites went to press.

Chicago is slated to spend the summer on the road with Brian Wilson.

Noirvember Day 19 - Edge of Doom (1950)

[dear-indies]

Hello!

I've seen a lot of people write in their rules that they don't interact with deceased faceclaims. But what do I do if an actor that played my character died (like Clark Middleton who played Glen Carter in The Blackist)? Is it OK to still use them? Or should I stop writing that character?

Thanks in advance for help!

Hey anon! Please note that is my opinion, I wouldn't suggest using him as a faceclaim but instead suggest using an alternative faceclaim, here are some people that give me the same vibe as his character:

Wayne Knight (1955)

Leslie Jordan (1955) - gay.

Fred Melamed (1956) Ashkenazi Jewish.

Keith David (1956) African-American.

Kevin Dunn (1956)

Nathan Lane (1956)

John Lasseter (1957)

Luis Guzmán (1956) Puerto Rican.

Dirk Blocker (1957)

Leslie David (1958) African-American.

Jason Alexander (1959) Ashkenazi Jewish.

Bradley Whitford (1959)

Rick Howland (?) - has osteogenesis imperfecta.

If you'd like more suggestions please let me know!

GEORGE REEVES

January 5, 1914

George Reeves was born George Keefer Brewer in Woolstock, Iowa. He is best known for his role as Superman in the television program “Adventures of Superman” (1952-58). His birth date is often listed as April 5, 1914, but that was born only five months after his parents' wedding and it was not until adulthood that he learned the truth. To further confuse matters, his mother made a mistake when having the urn containing his ashes inscribed and it reads January 6 instead of January 5.

Reeves began acting and singing in high school and continued performing on stage as a student at Pasadena Junior College. 

Reeves's film career took off in 1939 when he was cast as Stuart Tarleton (incorrectly listed in the film's credits as Brent Tarleton), one of Scarlett O'Hara's suitors (with Fred Crane, above left) in Gone with the Wind. Reeves dyed his hair red to portray one of the Tarleton twins. Lucille Ball read for the role of Scarlet O’Hara, one of hundreds of Hollywood starlets that vied for the role. References to the novel and iconic film can be found throughout her sitcoms.  Had she gotten the part, she would have been in the film with her future “I Love Lucy” actors Olin Howland, Irving Bacon, Alberto Morin, Shep Houghton, Ralph Brooks, and Hans Moebus. Sam McDaniel, brother of Mammy portrayer Hattie McDaniel, would be the first and only person of color to speak on “I Love Lucy” as the Porter in “The Great Train Robbery” (ILL S5;E5). Lucille Ball would one day own the back lot where the movie was filmed! 

Although Gone With the Wind was his first credited role in a feature film, a Warner Brothers short film titled Ride, Cowboy, Ride and the feature Espionage Agent were actually released three months earlier. 

While studying acting at the Pasadena Playhouse in 1940, Reeves married Ellanora Needles, granddaughter of circus magnate John Robinson. They had no children and divorced 10 years later.

Before his television fame as Superman, Reeves enlisted in the US Army and  appeared on Broadway in Winged Victory (1943) by Moss Hart (center).  The cast featured actual service members, including Sergeant George Reeves (above, behind Phyllis Avery).  He also appeared in the film version. 

Reeves made his television debut on September 29, 1949 in an episode (now lost) of the suspense anthology series “The Clock.”  Three weeks later he appeared in a second episode. 

His first episode of “Adventures of Superman” was “Superman on Earth” aired on September 19, 1952. Ross Elliott, who played Ricky Ricardo’s Press Agent on “I Love Lucy”, was cast as Jor-El, Superman’s father, but was replaced by Robert Rockwell, famous for playing Mr. Boynton on “Our Miss Brooks”.  Strangely, Elliott still receives screen credit. This first “Superman” also features Dani Sue Nolan, who was the wife of “I Love Lucy” director William Asher. Ironically, Asher did not direct the episode of “I Love Lucy” starring Reeves, which was staged by James V. Kern. 

Reeves appeared in all 104 episodes over 6 seasons of the ABC TV series. 

Initially shot and aired in black and white, the series (like “The Lucy Show”) was filmed in color starting with season 3. The first 26 episodes were filmed in 1951, the same year “I Love Lucy” started airing, but did not appear on television until 1952, when Kellogg's Cereals agreed to sponsor the show. Reeves was 44 years old during the filming of the sixth and final season, making him the oldest actor to have ever played Clark Kent / Superman in live-action. Although the Superman costume was padded to make it appear that Reeves had greater bulk, he did most of his own stunts.  The first season of the series was shot on the 40 Acres back lot that was part of RKO / Desilu Studios. 

On November 15, 1956, Reeves filmed the now-iconic “I Love Lucy” episode “Lucy and Superman” (ILL S6;E13), which premiered on January 14, 1957.  The episode was colorized on May 17, 2015. 

Keith Thibodeaux (Little Ricky) has said that this was his favorite episode of the series. He later talked about meeting Reeves...

Reeves is never mentioned by name in the dialogue or in the original credits. Lucie Arnaz later theorized that this was in order not to destroy the illusion that Superman was real to the many children who watched the show. In syndication, an announcer end credit was added for Reeve. The logic about the absent billing, however, is odd since Reeves was always credited on his own show. 

The final episode of the series was also Reeves’ final screen appearance. “All That Glitters” was also directed by Reeves, as were the previous two episodes. 

His death on June 16, 1959, from a gunshot remains a controversial subject; the official finding was suicide, but some believe that he was murdered or the victim of an accidental shooting. He was 45 years old.

Chicago, Others, “Conned” into Appearing in Benny Blake-directed Film

- After one-day shoot, “Rolling Thunder” is out on iTunes

Wes Studi is fed up with director Benny Blake, whom he accuses of weakness in the face of on-set adversity.

“All you’ve done is aim a camera at successful people who are now feeling like they have been conned,” the actor tells the director in the trailer for “Rolling Thunder.”

Shot in one day, the film follows Blake as he tries to direct Studi, Joe Mantegna, Katherine Muise and Chicago the band - who appear as themselves.

“Everyone under 25 is going to know who Chicago is after this movie,” Blake tells an incredulous James Pankow who offers a sarcastic “thank you.”

Mantegna, for his part, calls the shoot, which began as a “big-budget” short film, a “fiasco.”

Blake, however, is undeterred.

“When I have my Criterion releases later on down the line, this is something the fans are gonna wanna see,” he says. “They’re gonna wanna see the humble beginnings.”

If you wanna see it, “Rolling Thunder” is out now on iTunes.
