go as well in the States or in France. You don’t show up saying that their President is stupid. Youmay joke about your own culture though, like Jean Chrétien, that is acceptable. At the end of the day, only you can joke about your own mamma,” he added laughing. “I’ve been having fun with this since I was small and I findmyself so lucky that the people enjoy it and allowme to pursue this career for over 30 years now!” Opening for Celine Dion last summer created a resurgence in his popularity. He has used this star power to give back to the community and does a lot of charity and corporate events, in Vegas notably. He is going to be busy with a lot of upcoming events such as a show in London England, and a tour of casinos in Canada and the United States. “There is something huge brewing for this summer and fall, but I amexpecting confir- mations soon and I don’t want to jinx it. But you should hear about it in a month or so.” The man with the thousand voices will be sharing the stage with Russell’s own Tara Shannon as an opening act. The recording artist and her 9-piece band will be perform- ing her original material, including her new release “Love Me Loud” from her album “Unfinished”, launched in February. Tickets are available online at www. prescottrusselldome.ca and premium seats will be going fast as it is reserved seating. For those who prefer, tickets can also be bought in person at the arena, on June 2 as of 6 p.m.

World-renown impersonator André- Philippe Gagnon is looking forward to his upcoming show at the Russell Arena. With all proceeds going to the Russell Sports Dome, the June 3 rd event will also feature Russell artist Tara Shannon. “There was such a good reaction from the Embrun crowd in February and it was very well organized, so I can’t wait to see how it’s going to unfold at the arena. For my part, I am preparing to have fun and I just hope it will be contagious”, he said, laughing, during a phone interview last week. Although he is not a stranger to bigger venues, André- Philippe’s goal is to always make sure that the party gets going. Whether one prefers Elvis, Barry White, Boy George, Guns and Roses, Mick Jagger or more recent artists like James Blunt or Milky Chance, André-Philippe Gagnon has many tricks up his sleeve, so people of all tastes and ages are in for many surprises. “The show kind of presents the history of rock. It starts from the 50s and it continues up to today. Similar to olfactive memory, musical memories are triggered by certain artists or songs, so my job is just to get as closer as I can to what people have heard over the radio.” As requested, the show will be in English. What really convinced André-Philippe to believe in his abilities was when he first

imitated Tweety Bird in front of his older brother: “Instead of laughing at my expense, he went up to my mom and told her how well I had done. So I thought to myself, if my older brother buys that, it means that I can do the same in front of my friends and it’s going to work!” He has done so, using his many influences that allowed him to perfect an extensive repertoire. “In Quebec, we are influenced by the French from Canada and France as well as by American and Canadian English, so we can easily listen to Charles Aznavour, The Beatles, Elvis and Gordon Lightfoot back

to back on the radio.” Since his appearance on The Tonight Show in 1985, with his rendition of the 30 some artists in the song We are the World , the vocal chameleon has taken the world by storm and has been touring everywhere over the years. Whether he performs for Canadian fran- cophones or anglophones, Americans and even Europeans, Gagnon says that a certain cultural adaptation is required. “There are delicate subjects you have to be careful with.
