Confirming "rumbles" out of Chicago reported here on Friday, ex-president Bill Clinton did indeed bring his saxophone along for an appearance that evening with the "Saturday Night Live" "Blues Brothers" team of Dan Aykroyd and Jim Belushi. The musical threesome was on hand to celebrate the opening of Connecticut's new Mohegan Sun casino, which reportedly lured Clinton to do the show with "a heavy dose of wampum from the Tribe for his presidential library." According to the account of Boston Herald gossip mavens Gayle Fee and Laura Raposa, Clinton accepted an award for his help in securing the Mohegans their all-important tribal recognition, which allowed them to run the casino in the first place. The former first "sax maniac," as Fee and Raposa described him, is said to have treated the Mohegan Sun crowd of 10,000 to a wailing rendition of Wilson Pickett's "99," after being introduced by Ackroyd as "the good-time president." But those expecting Clinton to mimic Jake and Elwood Blues' trademark black suit, matching fedora and dark shades were disappointed. Also missing from the ex-president's ensemble, the handcuffs usually worn by the imaginary Chicago bluesmen for their onstage entrances.
