Dopo i concerti in Nord America, Giappone, Sud America e prima di quelli in Australia, i KISS sbarcheranno anche in Europa. L’11 giugno la leggenda del rock arriverà finalmente all’Arena di Verona per l’unica data italiana del suo “40th Anniversary Tour”, con cui festeggia 40 anni di musica. The Dead Daisies, la band australiana dalle influenze hard-rock anni ’70 – ‘80 formata dal cantautore Jon Stevens e dal chitarrista David Lowy, scalderà il pubblico dello storico anfiteatro veronese dando il via al concerto della più grande rock band del mondo.
Famosi per i loro show spettacolari, i KISS vogliono offrire ai fan un’esperienza unica con giochi di luci e un suono eccezionale, senza dimenticare i fuochi d’artificio che costituiscono il loro marchio di fabbrica.
Con 28 dischi d’oro in USA e 100 milioni di copie vendute, Gene Simmons e Paul Stanley insieme ai compagni Tommy Thayer e Eric Singer continuano a riscuotere successi anno dopo anno. Grazie alla loro incredibile carriera, i KISS ad aprile 2014 hanno ottenuto l’attesa introduzione nella Rock And Roll Hall of Fame e fino allo scorso novembre sono stati impegnati in KISS ROCKS VEGAS, il loro primo resident show presso The Joint all’interno dell’Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Las Vegas, proprio nel cuore di Sin City.
La nuova antologia in due cd dei KISS, “KISS 40”, uscita a maggio 2014, include un brano tratto da ognuno degli album della band, oltre alle tracce estratte dagli album solisti dei membri originali della band usciti nel 1978.
I KISS sono una delle più influenti band nella storia del rock’n’roll, con 44 album all’attivo e più di 100 milioni di dischi venduti in tutto il mondo. Oltre alle decine di tour trionfali, i KISS si sono esibiti ad eventi storici quali il XXXIII° Super Bowl, le Olimpiadi Invernali di Salt Lake City e il concerto Rockin’ The Corps dedicato alle truppe USA in missione in Iraq e Afghanistan; in aggiunta, sono apparsi durante la finale di American Idol 2009 seguita da 30 milioni di spettatori e in uno spot Dr. Pepper a supporto del tour Hottest Show On Earth tramesso durante il Super Bowl 2010. Attualmente i KISS compaiono in importanti campagne pubblicitarie di John Varvatos e Google Play. Lo scorso aprile i KISS hanno inaugurato la prima stagione dell’L.A. KISS Football team per riportare il football agonistico a Los Angeles.
L’eredità dei KISS continua a crescere, generazione dopo generazione. La devozione e la lealtà della KISS Army nei confronti della “Hottest Band in the World” è una testimonianza del legame indissolubile tra la band e i suoi fan. Nel 2014 i KISS festeggiano due passi importanti: il loro quarantesimo compleanno e la introduzione nella Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Dopo aver rinviato più volte il tour a causa della pandemia, i Nada Surf arrivano finalmente a Milano il 9 dicembre 2022, a Santeria Toscana 31, la data perfetta per riunire ancora una volta cuori, chitarre e malinconia, con uno sguardo rivolto al futuro.
I Nada Surf nascono nel 1990 da Matthew Caws e Daniel Lorca, due universitari di New York che una volta laureati fondano un gruppo insieme a un professore arrivando, qualche anno dopo, a concepire la band attuale. Sei anni dopo arriva il primo album “High/Low”, che si rivela una gemma dell’indie rock nonché un successo clamoroso grazie al singolo “Popular”: ciò permetterà alla band di poter realizzare il suo primo tour europeo.
Da qui I Nada Surf continuano a girare il mondo tra tradimenti discografici che ritarderanno l’uscita del secondo album di ben due anni e l’affetto del pubblico europeo, in particolare quello francese, che continua a crescere gradualmente senza dare segni di cedimento. Nel 2016 esce “You know who you are”: è un’opera adulta e gioviale, che parla di traguardi raggiunti nonostante le comuni difficoltà, di disincanto privo di rancore.
L'ultimo disco pubblicato dalla band risale al 2020 e si intitola "Never Not Together".
Matthew Caws – lead vocals, guitar
Louie Lino – keyboards
Daniel Lorca – bass, backing vocals
Ira Elliot – drums, backing vocals

The Postcard
A postcard published by M.J.R. that was posted in Southampton on Monday the 24th. December 1906 to:
Miss Waters,
35 Haigh Road,
Plaistow,
London E.
The message on the divided back of the card was as follows:
"With our love to all
and best wishes for
a Merry Xmas and a
Happy New Year.
From Aunt Aggie and
Uncle Bob".
James Hadley Chase
So what else happened on the day that Aunt Aggie and Uncle Bob posted the card?
Well, the 24th. December 1906 marked the birth in London of James Hadley Chase. He was an English writer of crime, mystery and detective thrillers during the Golden Age of Detective Fiction.
While his birth name was René Lodge Brabazon Raymond, he was well known by his various pseudonyms, including James Hadley Chase, James L. Docherty, Raymond Marshall, R. Raymond, and Ambrose Grant. He was one of the best known thriller writers of all time.
The range of his work, comprising 90 titles, earned him a reputation as the king of thriller writers in Europe. He was also one of the internationally best-selling authors, and to date (2023), 50 of his books have been made into films.
James Hadley Chase's Personal Background
René Lodge Brabazon Raymond was the son of Colonel Francis Raymond of the colonial Indian Army, a veterinary surgeon. His father intended his son to have a scientific career, and had him educated at King's School, Rochester, Kent.
However Chase left home at the age of 18 and worked in sales, primarily focusing on books and literature. He sold children's encyclopaedias while also working in a bookshop. He also served as an executive for a book wholesaler, before turning to a writing career that produced more than 90 mystery books.
His interests included photography, of a professional standard, reading, and listening to classical music and opera. As a form of relaxation between novels, he put together highly complicated and sophisticated Meccano models.
In 1932, he married Sylvia Ray, and they had a son. In 1956, they moved to France, and in 1969, to Switzerland, living a secluded life in Corseaux-sur-Vevey, on Lake Geneva. Chase died there at the age of 78 on the 6th. February 1985.
James Hadley Chase in World War II
During World War II James served in the Royal Air Force, achieving the rank of Squadron Leader. He edited the RAF official magazine with David Langdon, and had several short stories from it published after the war in the book Slipstream: A Royal Air Force Anthology (1946).
One of these stories was "The Mirror in Room 22." It was set in an old house, occupied by the officers of a squadron. The owner of the house had committed suicide in his bedroom, and the last two occupants of the room had been found with a razor in their hands and their throats cut.
The Wing Commander recounts that when he started to shave before the mirror, he found another face in it. The apparition drew the razor across its throat. The Wing Commander says:
"I use a safety razor, otherwise, I might
have met with a serious accident –
especially if I had been using an old-
fashioned cut-throat."
The story was published under the author's real name, René Raymond.
During World War II, Chase became friendly with Merrill Panitt (subsequently editor of TV Guide), who provided him with a dictionary of American slang, along with detailed maps and reference books relating to the American underworld.
This gave Chase the background for his early books with American settings, a number of which were based on actual events occurring there. Chase never lived in the United States, though he did make two brief visits, one to Miami and the other while en route to Mexico.
Prohibition and the ensuing Great Depression in the US (1929–39) had given rise to the Chicago gangster culture prior to World War II. This, combined with Chase's book trade experience, convinced him that there was a big demand for gangster stories.
After reading James M. Cain's novel The Postman Always Rings Twice (1934), and having read about the American gangster Ma Barker and her sons, and with the help of the maps and slang dictionary, he wrote No Orchids for Miss Blandish in his spare time.
He claimed to have written the book over a period of six weekends, though his papers suggest it actually took longer. The book achieved remarkable notoriety, and became one of the best-selling books of the decade.
It was the subject of the 1944 essay "Raffles and Miss Blandish" by George Orwell. Chase and Robert Nesbitt adapted it to a stage play of the same name which ran in London's West End to good reviews.
The 1948 film adaptation was widely denounced as salacious, due to the film's portrayal of violence and sexuality. Robert Aldrich did a remake, The Grissom Gang, in 1971.
Chase was subject to several court cases during his career. In 1942, his novel Miss Callaghan Comes to Grief (1941), a lurid account of the white slave trade, was banned by the British authorities after the author and publishers Jarrold were found guilty of causing the publication of an obscene book. Each was fined £100.
In the court case, Chase was supported by literary figures such as H. E. Bates and John Betjeman.
Later, the Anglo-American crime author Raymond Chandler successfully claimed that Chase had lifted a section of his work in Blonde's Requiem (published 1945), forcing Chase to issue an apology in The Bookseller.
James Hadley Chase After World War II
By the end of World War II, eleven Chase titles had been published, and he decided to adopt a different writing approach. All of his books to date had been compared to each other, and he wanted to move away from the American gangster scene to the London underworld that had sprung up following the end of hostilities.
He wrote More Deadly Than the Male under a new pseudonym, Ambrose Grant, and it was published in 1947 by Eyre and Spottiswoode, Graham Greene's publisher at that time.
Alerted to Grant's new book, Greene gave it high praise, as did the critics who, at the time, had no idea that Chase was the author. Contrary to rumour, the two authors did not know each other at the time, though they then became friends for the remainder of their lives, as Chase's papers and letters reveal.
In the early 1960's, both men were caught up in an investment scandal involving Tom Roe which was to lead to Greene's tax exile beginning in 1966.
In one of the chapters of The Wary Transgressor (1952) Chase gave a portrayal of a fanatical British General that was lifted by Hans Hellmut Kirst in his novel The Night of the Generals (which later became a film starring Peter O'Toole in the title role).
Chase (who had nothing whatsoever to do with the making of the film) threatened a lawsuit, and Kirst subsequently acknowledged Chase's original idea in his book, as did Columbia Pictures, who included a credit that the plot of the film stemmed from an original Chase idea.
The first cut of Joseph Losey's 1962 film version of Chase's thriller Eve (1945), Eva was considered too long, at 155 minutes, and the producers, the Hakim Brothers, insisted it not only be withdrawn from the Venice Film Festival, but be severely cut.
Set in America, the film version was moved to Venice and starred Stanley Baker as a Welsh writer obsessed with a cold-hearted femme fatale, Eve (Jeanne Moreau).
When the film finally opened in Paris at 116 minutes, it was described as the most traumatic disaster of Losey's career. The original book was a psychological study of a prostitute (Chase, with his wife's blessing, picked out a "lady of the night" and offered her £5 and a good lunch if she would let him pick her brains).
Over the years, Chase developed a distinct, signature style in his writing that was fast-paced, with little explanations or details about the surroundings or weather. Characters in his novels and short stories were coherent and consistent, and acted and reacted with unbreakable logic. Punchy sentences, short bursts of dialogue in authentic sounding slang with plenty of action were the characteristics of his writing.
All of his novels were so fast-paced that the reader was compelled to turn the pages in a non-stop effort to reach the end of the book. The final page often produced a totally unexpected plot twist that would invariably leave even his most die-hard fans surprised.
His early books contained some violence that matched the era in which they were written, though this was considerably toned down as plots centred more on circumstantial situations to create the high degree of tension that was the hallmark of his writing. Sex was never explicit and, though often hinted at, seldom happened.
In several of Chase's stories, the protagonist tries to get rich by committing a crime – an insurance fraud or a theft. But the scheme invariably fails and leads to a murder and finally to a cul-de-sac, in which the hero realises that he never had a chance to keep out of trouble.
Women are often beautiful, clever, and treacherous; they kill unhesitatingly if they have to cover a crime. The protagonist generally falls in love with one, and is prepared to kill at her behest. Only when he has committed a murder , does he realise that the woman was manipulating him for her own ends.
Chase's plots typically centre around dysfunctional families, and the final denouement echoes the title.
Chase's best market was France (more than 30 books were made into movies) where all of his ninety titles were published by Éditions Gallimard in their Série Noire series. He was also very popular in other European markets, as well as Africa and Asia.
Following perestroika, Centrepolygraph in Russia contracted to publish all his titles. However, Chase's books failed to take hold in the American market.

Published by: The Union News Co. / Genuine Curteich-Chicago "C.T. Art-Colortone" post card.
No. in series: 7
Unused.
Publisher Note:
The Union News Company was a subsidiary of the American News Company. They sold postcards/view cards, books, newspapers, magazines, and toys in railroad depot restaurants and shops. By the 1950s, the wholesale magazine distribution company had vendors in restaurants, shopping centers, and hotels.
Curt Teich emigrated to Chicago in 1895. He had worked as a lithographer in Lobenstein, Germany.
He founded the Curt Teich Company in 1898, concentrating on newspaper and magazine printing. He was an early publisher of postcards, but he didn't begin printing them himself until 1908.
According to MetroPostcard.com, "As his competition dwindled, his sales expanded and his American factories would eventually turn out more postcards than any other in the United States."
The company was best known for its wide range of advertising and postcards of North America. By the 1920s, it was producing so many postcards with borders that they became recognized as a type dubbed "White Border Cards," creating an "era."
Curt Teich started using offset presses in 1907, but it took a number of years before he had offset presses made to his satisfaction and many more years for him to perfect the method.
His innovations in this printing technique directly led to the production of what we now call "linens" by the early 1930s.
The company aided the war effort during the second world war by also printing many military maps.
Curt Teich eventually turned management of the company over to his son, but he remained active in company operations throughout its history.
Curt Teich died in 1974 and the family business was sold to Regensteiner Publishers who continued to print postcards at the Chicago plant until 1978 when the rights to the company name and processes were sold to the Irish company, John Hinde Ltd. Their California subsidiary now prints postcards under the name John Hinde Curteich, Inc.

The sequel to “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” (1865), “Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There” (1872) was published seven years later and is set some six months later than the earlier book. This time Alice enters a fantastic world by stepping through a mirror. “Through the Looking Glass” is not quite as popular as “Wonderland” but it does include celebrated verses such as “Jabberwocky” and “The Walrus and the Carpenter,” and episodes involving “Tweedledum and Tweedledee” and “Humpty Dumpty.” The book features fifty in-text illustrations by John Tenniel.

Casablanca, located in the central-western part of Morocco bordering the Atlantic Ocean, is the largest city in Morocco.
It is also the largest city in the Maghreb, as well as one of the largest and most important cities in Africa, both economically and demographically.
Casablanca is Morocco's chief port and one of the largest financial centers on the continent.
According to a 2014 population estimate, the city has a population of about 3.35 million in the urban area and over 6.8 million in the Casablanca-Settat region.
Casablanca is considered the economic and business center of Morocco, although the national political capital is Rabat.
The leading Moroccan companies and international corporations doing business in the country have their headquarters and main industrial facilities in Casablanca.
The Port of Casablanca is one of the largest artificial ports in the world. Casablanca also hosts the primary naval base for the Royal Moroccan Navy.
Albert Laprade, Architect
Casablanca's new quarter was designed by the French architect Albert Laprade. He was born in Buzançais, Indre on the 29th. November 1883. He was the only son of a wholesale grocer and a seamstress from Châteauroux.
Between 1910 and 1914 Laprade worked in the studio of René Sergent, an uncle by marriage, who designed townhouses and chateaux lavishly decorated in the Louis XV style.
He was called up in 1914 with the outbreak of the Great War. In 1915 he was wounded at Ypres and sent to Rouen to recover, but was unable to return to the field.
Laprade then worked in town planning, and was given the tasks of redesigning the great central park in Casablanca, and then planning a new indigenous town.
Laprade first made many drawings of local architectural motifs in an effort to understand the interaction of stylistic elements with social functions.
His goal was to develop an elegant urban architecture based on modern technology that would be appropriate to the stylistic tastes and way of life of the Moroccan people.
His new Médina in Casablanca was separate from the earlier French quarter and very different in design. Laprade followed Moroccan traditions in the division between interior courtyards and the street.
His new quarter, in neo-Moorish style using modern materials, technology and sanitary principles, included pedestrian walkways, courtyard houses, markets, communal ovens, mosques, schools and public baths.
Casablanca and the French
In June 1907, the French attempted to build a light railway near the port which would have passed through a graveyard.
As an act of resistance and protestation, the locals attacked the French, riots ensued, causing a few soldiers to be wounded and one general to be killed.
In response, the French attacked by ship, bombarding the city from the coast, and landing troops inside the town, which caused severe damage to the town with 15,000 dead and wounded.
The French claimed that it was to restore order there. This effectively began the process of colonization, although French control of Casablanca was not formalised until 1910. Under the French rule, Muslim anti-Jewish riots occurred in 1908.
Humphrey Bogart
The famous 1942 film 'Casablanca' (starring Humphrey Bogart) underlined the city's colonial status at the time - depicting it as the scene of a power struggle between competing European powers. The film has a cosmopolitan cast of characters.
