The Florida Theatre proudly welcomes the return
of Motown legends, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame members and GRAMMY Lifetime
Achievement Winners “The Temptations and The Four Tops” to the Theatre
on Friday, January 22, 2021. Florida
Theatre members at the Ensemble Level and above can order tickets today. Members of the Florida Theatre E-Club can use
their code word to order tickets. Tickets
for The Temptations and The Four Tops are on sale now.
The Temptations, often referred to as “American Music Royalty,” are
world-renowned superstars of entertainment, revered for their phenomenal
catalog of music, and prolific career. Named
the “#1 R&B/Hip Hop Artists of All Time” and one of the “125 Greatest of
All Time Artists” by Billboard Magazine, as well as one of the “100
Greatest Artists of All Time” by Rolling Stone Magazine, the group is
truly a beloved “National Treasure.”
The Temptations are currently the subject of the smash hit Broadway musical,
“Ain’t Too Proud,” which opened on March 21, 2019. The musical won the Tony Award for Best
Choreography at the 73rd Tony Awards at Radio City Music Hall in New York City
on June 10, 2019 and has captivated thousands of theater-goers during sold-out
performances.
The Temptations, throughout the group’s evolution, have produced 53 Billboard
Hot 100 Hit singles, including four that became No. 1 Pop singles: “My
Girl,” “I Can’t Get Next To You,” “Just My Imagination,” and “Papa Was a
Rollin’ Stone.” Additionally, they
released 43 Top 10 R&B hit singles, 14 of which were No. 1 R&B hits,
including timeless classics such as: “Ain’t Too Proud to Beg,” “Beauty Is
Only Skin Deep,” “I Wish It Would Rain,” and songs influenced by their funk
and psychedelic soul sound including: “Happy People,” and “Shakey
Ground.” The group also has 16 No. 1
R&B Albums.
The Temptations are the recipients of numerous awards and honors. They have won four GRAMMY Awards, including
being honored with the Recording Academy’s Lifetime Achievement GRAMMY Award in
2013. The Temptations were inducted into
the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1989. Blockbuster
No. 1 hits “Just My Imagination,” “Papa was a Rollin’ Stone,” and “My
Girl” are among the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame’s “500 Songs That Shaped
Rock and Roll.”
The Four Tops, originally called the Four Aims, made their first single
for Chess Records in 1956, and spent seven years on the road and in nightclubs,
singing pop, blues, Broadway, but mostly jazz—four-part harmony jazz. When Motown’s Berry Gordy Jr. found out they
had hustled a national Tonight Show appearance, he signed them without
an audition to be the marquee act for the company’s Workshop Jazz label. That proved short-lived, and Stubbs’
powerhouse baritone lead and the exquisite harmonies of Fakir, Benson, and
Payton started making one smash after another with the writing-producing trio
Holland-Dozier-Holland.
Their first Motown hit, “Baby I Need Your Loving” in 1964, made them
stars and their sixties track record on the label is indispensable to any
retrospective of the decade. Their
songs, soulful and bittersweet, were across-the-board successes. “I Can’t Help Myself (Sugar Pie, Honey
Bunch),” a No. 1 R&B and Pop smash in 1965, is one of Motown’s
longest-running chart toppers; it was quickly followed by a longtime favorite, “It’s
The Same Old Song”. Their commercial
peak was highlighted by a romantic trilogy: No. 1 “Reach Out I’ll Be There,”
“Standing In The Shadows Of Love” and “Bernadette” —an extraordinary
run of instant classics. Other Tops hits
from the decade included: “Ask The Lonely,” “Shake Me, Wake Me (When It’s
Over),” “Something About You,” “You Keep Running Away,” “7-Rooms Of Gloom” and
their covers of “Walk Away Renee” and “If I Were A Carpenter.”
In 1990, with 24 Top 40 pop hits to their credit, the Four Tops were inducted
into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame. For Rolling Stone’s 2004 article “The
Immortals – The Greatest Artists Of All Time,” Smokey Robinson remembered: “They
were the best in my neighborhood in Detroit when I was growing up (and) the
Four Tops will always be one of the biggest and the best groups ever. Their music is forever.”

WJCT today announced Jazz Festival Weekend on the Jacksonville Music
Experience (JME), which will run through Memorial Day Weekend (May 21-24,
2020), the traditional dates of the Jacksonville Jazz Festival which was
postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Jazz Festival Weekend will feature music from some of the biggest names in jazz
across WJCT’s television, radio and online platforms. The virtual event will
kick off with “Music Thursdays” on WJCT-TV, with programming that showcases
performances by a roster of international jazz giants such as Miles Davis,
Herbie Hancock and many others in prime time.
Recently
I had the opportunity to travel outside my state and see that there are some
similarities and some differences now-a-days.
I have noticed that businesses are more respectful to you when you
approach their counter while donning a face cover.
Alcohol is being purchased more during the week instead of just on the
weekends. Could it be because people are
home more and tired of being cooped up in their homes? Hopefully it’s not because of being around
the same people. Get use to it! You
married them and/or you created them. You
might want to virally chat respectfully with others (don’t start questionable
“chat rooms” like there use to be in AOL), learn a new hobby or pastime with
your family, work in separate rooms if possible, exercise from a video or just
take a walk. Masks are NOT required in
your home or in the open air (backyards, meals of 10 or less [I say 2]).
I’ve always used Lysol spray or wipes to disinfect surfaces on airplanes and
hotel rooms (television remote, hotel phone, and anything that you think that
housekeeping might have omitted), and even now more than ever. Needless to say,
I’m not going to clean the room behind a housekeeper (that’s what the front
desk or a report to corporate is for), but I will safeguard me and mine on the
front side.
As you can see in the video, hotel breakfasts are a little different too (this
meal was good). No establishment wants
to be sued because you caught Coronavirus from being in their place of eating,
worshiping, grooming, purchasing, or whatever
For those offended by the phrase “New Normal”, let’s call this pandemic
experience #NewAbnormal 🤔😲😷 🧼. It’s time
to get
off your high horse. It’s a realm of new beginnings. You must adhere to change in order to stay
alive and/or not to infect others with a virus.
Some may not have been around when measles, chickenpox and polio was rampant
in our society years ago; we were use to quarantining. Those old enough may have experienced
something like this years ago. There
have been Outbreaks, Plagues and other Viruses in the history of time. We are almost at that point again.
Those who are young and figure that “This will NEVER happen to me”, may want to
reconsider the possibilities. Don’t
gamble on your health, life; or the health and lives of others. And also, it wouldn’t hurt for our children to
donn masks in order to protect them from COVID-19 or the new Kawasaki disease.
#CautiousButNotCrazy, #WiseYetHarmless, #WashYourHands, #FactsNotFear, #PrayedUp,
#StaySafe, #FaithOverFear, #FactsAndFaith, #TBR (Trust,Believe, Receive - from
God)
“I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in
all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and
to suffer need.” Philippians 4:12 KJV.
Just like those on Social Media, people are going to have their differences. It once was the Hatfields against the McCoys,
Protestants against Catholics, Jews against Gentiles, Democratic against
Republicans; and now it’s those who want to Wear Masks 😷 and those who Don’t Want to be Told What to Do 😼. No matter
where you stand, it’s always a way to voice your opinion without getting nasty,
uncaring and disrespectful to others.
Sure we must go back to living our lives, nonetheless, COVID-19 is real and you
don’t want someone you know and/or love to convince you that it’s NOT a joke. And one last thing: please stop disposing of
your masks and gloves in parking lots or shopping carts; that’s just nasty. It’s like seeing a used needle or prophylactic
on the side of the road. Stay safe and
think of others.
The Alhambra Theatre & Dining is now open for dinner in the theater on select days and lunch on
Sunday! Here is how it works: When you
are ready to make your reservation, call the box office. When booking, they will take your desired
arrival time and entrée selection. Upon
arrival, you will check-in at the podium and they will seat you safely at a
distance from other parties – much like a restaurant. Their service staff will then serve you a
delicious three-course meal specially prepared by Chef DeJuan and their kitchen
staff!
On behalf of everyone at the theater – the front office and box office staff, the
culinary and service staff, and the production staff – the Alhambra wants to
thank you SO MUCH for the opportunity to keep their 53-year institution going
during this time. They are so grateful
for the opportunity to serve you once again.
To ensure your safety, seating is very limited and reservations may only
be made through the Box Office. Call (904)
641-1212 to make your reservations today!

Historic nonprofit “Florida Theatre” is
committed to ensuring they remain a destination for music and performing arts,
in addition to ensuring that the building is maintained as a historic resource
to the community. The theater responds
to urgent COVID-19 need with a request for donations, as they join
#givingtuesdaynow in global day of giving and unity.
#GivingTuesdayNow is a global day of giving and unity, set to take place on May
5, 2020 as an emergency response to the unprecedented need caused by
COVID-19. The day is designed to
drive an influx of generosity, citizen engagement, business and
philanthropy activation, and support for communities and nonprofits around
the world.
At a time when we are all experiencing the pandemic, generosity is what brings
people of all races, faiths, and political views together across the globe. Generosity gives everyone power to make a
positive change in the lives of others and is a fundamental value anyone can
act upon. It’s a day for everyone around
the world to stand together and give back in all ways, no matter who or
where we are.
“At the Florida Theatre, a portion of our bottom line every year comes
directly from donations made by members of our community and our generous
donors and corporate sponsors,” said Florida Theatre Development Director
Michelle Adams. “Through their
generosity we’re able to offer community events like our annual Holiday Movie
which benefits the region’s largest nonprofit food bank and hunger relief
network, Feeding Northeast Florida, and present cultural programs like
Jacksonville Dance Theatre, Kodo Drummers, and Pilobolus.”
People can show their generosity in a variety of ways during #GivingTuesdayNow,
whether it’s helping a neighbor, advocating for an issue, sharing a skill, or
giving to causes; every act of generosity counts. The global movement will emphasize
opportunities to give back to communities and causes in safe ways that allow
for social connection even while practicing physical distancing.
“As a global community, we can mourn this moment of extreme crisis while
also finding the opportunity to support one another. We each have the power to make an impact with
acts of generosity, no matter how small, and to ensure the sustainability
of organizations and services that are crucial to the care and support of
our communities,” said Asha Curran, CEO of GivingTuesday. “#GivingTuesdayNow is a chance for us to
stand united and use grassroots generosity to show that we are all in this
together, beginning to end. Even as many
face financial uncertainty, generosity is not about size. From calling an elderly neighbor to chat to
offering translation help; from showing gratitude to our healthcare workers to
donating to your local food bank, every act of kindness is a beacon of hope in this
crisis. We all have something to give,
and every act of human consideration and kindness matters.”
