ON THE TOWN:

Even if Little Richard didn’t do the ceremony, producer Chuck Plotkin and his New Jersey-born bride, Wendy Brand Chaft, had plenty of musical fireworks at their wedding reception last weekend in Santa Monica. Of course, not everyone’s as well connected as Plotkin, one of Bruce Springsteen’s longtime producers and confidantes. The Boss returned the favor by performing “It’s Gonna Work Out Fine” (with Jimmy Wood), saluting the bride by doing “Jersey Girl,” accompanied by Tom Waits, who handled a solo version of “Fever.” The squad of post-nuptial background vocalists included Patti Scialfa, Andrew Gold and Karla Bonoff. . . . At his second show at the Universal Amphitheatre last weekend, Van Morrison brought out Robbie Robertson to play guitar for a lengthy jam-version of “Moondance.” . . . And if you’re hungry for outrageous, Vegas-style nightmare pop theater, don’t miss Bubba Lou Vickers (otherwise known as Bud E. Luv), who makes a rare appearance Thursday at Cafe Largo on Fairfax. The post-modern lounge artist’s act includes a medley of three B.J. Thomas hits and a drum-machine version of Bobby Brown’s “My Prerogative.”
