Electronic duo EOTO to perform at Granada
Mix masters Michael Travis and Jason Hann will perform tonight as electronic duo EOUT at the Granada. The two have embraced the festivities of the day, naming their show "EOT-Owen."
Scottie Bloomberg, a freshman from Wilmette, ill expects that having the show on Halloween will influence the energy of both EOTO and the audience.
"I feel like everyone there will be acting a lot more goofy and get really into the music." Bloomberg said.
"I've seen them twice before, and the shows were nothing alike because it is all improvised. Each time I saw them they were amazing."
Improvisation is the key factor in EOTO's popularity. They use no pre-recordings, ensuring they create a new set for each performance.
Underneath the electronic beats and womps; EOTO is essentially a jam band with roots in rock and jazz. The two incorporate live, instrumentation along with house music, dubstep and electro into each performance. Back in 2006, EOTO was formed as a side project of The String Cheese Incident, but since then the two have released
three studio albums and toured the country. According to the group's website, "EOTO has played more than seven hundred unique showcases in 48 different states in the five years since the project's inception." This show will be one of the 33 consecutive performances from the group as a part of its perennial fall tour that began in September.
Doors open at 9 p.m., and the show will run from 10 p.m. to 3 a.m. Advance tickets are $25, and you must be 18 or older to attend. Costumes are highly encouraged.

Silverman adds edge to role in Disney's 'Wreck-it Ralph'

ORLANDO, Fla. _ There's always been something that screamed "cartoon" about potty-mouthed pixie, Sarah Silverman. Even at her most outrageous, the edgy comic's disarming, Betty Boop/ Betty Rubble voice intentionally softens that edge.
Silverman's demeanor and material, in which, as the Los Angeles Times and many others have proclaimed, "almost nothing's off limits" _ race, religion, sex and celebrity _ can be jaw-dropping. Think of her stand-up documentary "Jesus is Magic," her sexualized political ads and what she once sang to ex-boyfriend Jimmy Kimmel that she was doing to Matt Damon.
But coming from a voice built for baby talk, she gets away with it.
Q; So, who called whom? Did you approach Disney, or did they pitch you?
Her most outrageous stunt yet may be her first-ever turn as an animated character in a Disney film. She's voiced more adult animation _ "The Simpsons," "Family Guy," "Futurama," "Bob's Burgers." But "Wreck It Ralph," opening Friday, is a Disney 'toon in which she plays a sassy, sugary exiled video game imp named Vanellepo Von Schweetz. And if Vanellope has a certain Silverman edge, the comic-disney-actress says that's Disney's doing.

Silverman: "Disney called me. They did. I have NO idea why. I was like, 'Do they only know me from 'Monk' or 'Yo Gabba Gabba' or something?' I was thrilled. Everybody loves Disney. And when I thought of it, the filthiest comedian working as I was coming up was Eddie Murphy. And he's found a home with Disney. So if he can do it, why not me?
"I mean, I have the perfect voice for animation, and a great face for radio! Haha! I've always had a voice, a pretty distinctive one - pleasing or displeasing, depending on who you are. When I hear it, I'm like 'Eeeewww, it's so NASAL'. But early on, I got a voice-over agent, and I'd go to voice-over auditions constantly _ commercials. I never got booked. Never. Then, people started hiring me for being me and I started getting all this cartoon work
We reached her in Los Angeles.
"A lot of people are asking me about this choice, and I'm like, 'Do you think I'm going to sneak (expletive deleted) into their cartoon? NO. I'm an adult. There's more than one side of me and I can certainly curb myself if they give me a script. Come on!"
Q: Well, you've provided so little evidence, up to now, that you are in fact able to curb yourself.
Silverman: "Yeah, I know. Disney's REALLY smart releasing this in an election year when I'm at my most tippy-top polarizing self! But they're still cool about it."
Silverman: "I feel so close to her. Yes, she's a 'Her.' She's an EveryWoman _ obnoxious and precocious and annoying, at first. She's this little tough girl. When people are tough, it's because they're protecting this fragile interior. She was this little rejected girl covering it with being a tough guy. A lot of people can relate to that. I know I could."
Q: Anything about Vanellope that you could identify with, as a character?
Q: And there are these Sarah Silverman touches to her lines.
A video game character with a

learning disorder, she says she has "pixlexia"?
Silverman: "I love that! I'd love to take credit for it, but that's in the script. We improvised and came up with alternative lines. 'Milk My Duds.' But stuff like 'Why did the hero flush the toilet?' 'Cuz it was his DUTY?' Straight out of the script. And I loved it."
Silverman: "This comes out sandwiched between a filthy political video, and a movie ("Take This Waltz") that I'm nude in. So sure. I'm getting a LOT mellower.
Q: So is "going Disney" the sign that this is the beginning of a mellow Sarah Silverman? (She turns 42 in December).
"I'm kind of daydreaming, right now. I'm doing another stand-up special. It's been seven years, and I'm focusing on that after all these interviews Disney makes you do _ a world tour _ Wreck It Ralp' mania. That, and getting people to vote.
"I'll know what I want to do next _ a song, a show, a movie _ when it comes to me, but right now, like some voters, I'm undecided."
