atty Sheehan is angry. The Orlando City Commissioner has been fuming since June 12, in between grieving and helping a community patch itself up. Her blue eyes harden when she remembers what Attorney General Pam Bondi told her while Orange Avenue was still stained with blood from victims who were dragged from the gay nightclub Pulse to the Orlando Regional Medical Center. The ire from that moment has fueled her to attend multiple gun control rallies in Orlando, always with a rainbow ribbon pinned to her chest, a permanent badge that many Orlandoans took to wearing after the shooting. “I asked if we were going to talk about guns, and nobody would listen,” she says. “Some of the first words out of Pam Bondi’s mouth to me: ‘We’re not going to talk about guns today.’” Sheehan was baffled. How could state officials refuse to talk about the weapon used to kill 49 people and injure countless others? When a CNN anchor asked Florida Gov. Rick Scott if the state’s gun laws, which make it easier to buy an AR-15 than a pistol, played a part in the massacre, why did he ask instead for a conversation on stopping “radical Islam”?

“They don’t want to say a hate-filled person targeted the LGBTQ community with a high-powered assault weapon that should have never been in his hands to begin with,” she says. “Instead it’s ISIS and terrorism. They want to make it about anything other than what it was.” Sheehan and Scott’s disagreement about what really spurred the Pulse massacre might seem like a classic clash between the way Democrats and Republicans view the world. But beneath that is a more insidious effort on the part of the gun lobby to silence any and all conversations on firearms, despite the fact that more than 33,000 Americans die from gun violence every year and most of those victims don’t perish in mass shootings. And surprisingly, the industry’s main targets aren’t elected officials like Sheehan, or the state representatives who asked their colleagues in the Florida Legislature for a special session after Pulse, or even the Democratic members of Congress who staged a sit-in last June asking for a vote on several gun control measures. No, it’s doctors and scientists. After the tragic events at Pulse, conservatives in the United States Congress are still beating back efforts to repeal a longstanding ban on federally funded gun-violence research. In Florida, meanwhile, the state is still defending a law that forbids doctors from even asking patients about their guns, a fight that could head to the U.S. Supreme Court. The most prominent lobbyist for the National Rifle Association in Florida says asking for a re-examination of any existing legislation on gun control is “dumb.” In the wake of disaster, inertia reigns as those in charge of the public’s welfare struggle to inform Americans about why they’re dying.

r. Mohsin Jaffer still wonders what would have happened if he knew his friend wanted to die. Jaffer, a South Florida gerontologist, says his friend was a “Robin Williams type” – jolly and jocular on the outside, deeply depressed in private. After he heard some (undisclosed) bad news, Jaffer’s friend killed himself with a gun. Jaffer still thinks about what would have happened if he’d asked the questions he asks all his depressed patients: Do you have a gun in your home? Is it secure? Can you give it to someone else to hold for you? “If somebody becomes depressed and wants to take their life, they’ll have a higher success rate with a gun,” he says. “It’s a lethal combination, which is why I ask. I don’t care if you like guns or not, all

I want to know is if my patient is a danger to himself or not.” Jaffer owns a gun. He says he used to be a member of the National Rifle Association. But he quit years ago after the NRA ushered several pieces of legislation, including Florida’s Firearms Owners Privacy Act, into law. FOPA uses the threat of severe penalties to prevent physicians from asking their patients direct questions about guns in their homes. The law’s original backers wanted to prevent doctors from asking their patients about guns in the home because they felt it was a violation of privacy. FOPA has been blocked under a temporary injunction since 2011, the same year it passed, but that hasn’t stopped the chilling effect it’s had on physicians in the state, says Dr. Consuelo Beck-Sagué. The law is not being enforced as it’s litigated through the courts, but the fact that it was passed was enough to strike fear in the hearts of some doctors, who now refuse to ask their patients about the guns they own. Before accepting her current job as an assistant professor at Florida International University, Beck-Sagué worked as a pediatrician. The first time she heard about the FOPA, she thought it was a hoax: How could it be possible that the state could take away her medical license or fine her for asking patients if there were guns in their homes and if so, how they were stored? “What physician is going to take a chance like that?” she says. “Everybody I knew wimped out. The practice of pediatrics changed in Florida because everybody was so risk-averse to asking that question. This law was very much against the concept of preventative medicine.” Beck-Sagué says she didn’t only ask the parents of her patients about guns. She also asked about swimming-pool safety, smoking and whether pillows were being placed in cribs. But she was interested in preventing the parents of toddlers from leaving loaded guns unlocked and within reach of tiny hands. Last year, 265 children shot someone by accident; in 83 of those cases, the results were fatal, according to data from the gun control group Everytown for Gun Safety. Beck-Sagué says she also worried about suicidal teens. “It can be something impulsive, like a breakup or not making the team,” she says. “What normally is a very little thing is huge when you’re depressed, and if you have a way of ending it all suddenly with a highly lethal weapon, that’s a tremendous influence.” Beck-Sagué’s logic was probably similar to that of Dr. Chris Okonkwo, an Ocala doctor who in 2010 asked 26-year-old CONTINUED ON PAGE 16

mother Amber Ullman whether she owned any guns before he examined her baby. As he later relayed the story to the Ocala StarBanner, Ullman told Okonkwo it was none of his business. He told her to find another pediatrician. After that story, the NRA took notice, ginning up outrage among gun-rights enthusiasts. In 2011, Marion Hammer, writing for the Institute for Legislative Action of the NRA, said the law would stop “anti-gun doctors from asking children and parents if they own guns and then telling them to get rid of their guns.” “Doctors need to treat illness, not guns,” Hammer wrote. “Pediatricians and other physicians, in growing numbers, are prying into our personal lives, invading our privacy and straying from issues relating to disease and medicine by questioning children or their parents about gun ownership.” Eventually, the idea that doctors asking about guns was problematic found a champion in state Rep. Jason Brodeur, R-Sanford. “What we don’t want to do is have lawabiding firearm owners worried that the information is going to be recorded and then sent to their insurance company,” Brodeur told the Fort Myers News-Press in 2011. As Politifact pointed out, the Affordable Care Act, which became law in 2010, spe-

cifically prohibits the federal government from using the health care law to collect data on gun owners. It also prohibits insurance companies from adjusting rates because someone is a gun owner. Brodeur pressed on regardless; in January 2011, he introduced HB 155, which threatened to jail doctors who discussed firearms with their patients. Doctors could also be fined up to $5 million. Even in the GOP-controlled Legislature, that was a bridge too far; over months, the bill was tempered some, but the heart of it remained. The law that passed that April said that health care practitioners “shall respect a patient’s right to privacy and should refrain from making a written inquiry or asking questions concerning the ownership of a firearm or ammunition by the patient or by a family member of the patient, or the presence of a firearm in a private home or other domicile of the patient or a family member of the patient.” Legislators also reduced the penalties to lesser fines and the threat of losing a medical license, adding a vague clause saying physicians could make an exception if guns were “relevant to the patient’s medical care or safety.” After Gov. Rick Scott signed it into law, doctors, medical organizations and the American Civil Liberties Union teamed up

to challenge the mandate in federal court. Commonly referred to as “Docs v. Glocks,” the lawsuit argued that the ban violated doctors’ free speech rights. A federal judge in Miami agreed and blocked it the same year it was passed. In the five years since, a three-judge panel of the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals reversed that federal judge and upheld the law. The physicians appealed to the entire appellate court; in July, the judges heard arguments for both sides of the issue. Ed Mullens, an attorney for the plaintiffs, says he expects the decision to be handed down sometime this year. From there, this case is likely destined for the U.S. Supreme Court after the loser appeals. Brodeur tells Orlando Weekly he sponsored the law after doctors in the state program were refusing to see kids because their parents owned a firearm. He made the analogy that it would be just as unfair as if a woman walked in with food stamps to a grocery store and was asked by her cashier whether she exercised her right to vote as a condition of sale. Brodeur adds that the media have gotten the law twisted: Doctors and paramedics can still make a “good-faith inquiry” about a patient’s guns if they believe patients are CONTINUED ON PAGE 18

an imminent danger to themselves or others. When OW asked how a doctor could determine that for certain, the state representative says doctors are professionals who could base it off their medical opinion. “It’s a civil right to be able to own a firearm,” he says. “Physicians can still have the conversation about guns and the proper way to store them, but they should pose it as a question, not a condition of treatment. They should say, ‘If you have a gun, you can do this,’ not ask ‘Do you have a gun?’ I’ve heard from a number of parents who thanked me for this bill, saying it was a violation of privacy.” Howard Simon, executive director of the Florida ACLU, says the case is not about the Second Amendment, but rather the First. “I thought this lawsuit was silly in a tragic way,” he says. “It’s absurd. We should be arguing about what regulation of guns is consistent with the Second Amendment. With this law, it’s not even permissible to talk about gun safety. This law is a restriction on speech for one group of people on one subject that’s disfavored by the Legislature. That’s unconstitutional.” The state’s defense, which is prepared by lawyers from Attorney General Pam Bondi’s office, says the law barring doctors from asking about patients’ guns “passes muster under any level of First Amendment review.” “By shielding gun-owning patients and families from discrimination, unnecessary harassment, and bad-faith, irrelevant inquiries and record-keeping, the act narrowly advances the state’s compelling interests in protecting the fundamental right to keep and bear arms from private encumbrances, safeguarding patient privacy, eliminating barriers to health care, and preventing discrimination and harassment in the provision of health care services,” a state brief in the case says. “The act represents the most 18

modest of all professional regulations – a requirement that doctors stick to practicing medicine – and it accomplishes its compelling goals without interfering with doctors’ professional judgment or otherwise burdening more speech than necessary.” Marion Hammer, the first female president of the NRA (who now lobbies for gun rights in Florida), agrees with the state. She asserts that gun ownership is a private matter unrelated to health concerns. “It’s like going to a mechanic to get your car fixed, and he tries to sell you a dress because he didn’t like your pants,” Hammer says. “It’s completely irrelevant, and none of their business.” The American Medical Association would beg to differ. Two days after 49 people were shot dead at Pulse, the AMA declared gun violence a “public health crisis” and said it would actively lobby Congress to overturn legislation preventing research. “Even as America faces a crisis unrivaled in any other developed country, the Congress prohibits the CDC from conducting the very research that would help us understand the problems associated with gun violence and determine how to reduce the high rate of firearm-related deaths and injuries,” said Steven Stack, president of the AMA, in a statement. Hammer is only one voice in the chorus of gun lobbyists denouncing what they view as invasive inquiries by doctors. She and the NRA view the law as a protective measure, aimed at preventing the collection of data on gun ownership that will only lead to discriminatory practices by insurance companies. For her, the entire issue is nothing more than propaganda aimed at banning guns entirely. Dr. Bernd Wollschlaeger, the lead plaintiff in the case against the state, is a family doctor. He’s also a gun owner. Wollschlaeger says he’s continued to ask his patients questions about guns in their homes with mostly positive response, despite what he calls “the NRA’s attempt to muzzle physicians.” “This law benefits nobody,” he says. “I’m not an anti-gun vigilante. The NRA and the gun lobby only want to sell guns. They’re not taking part in any rational debate on the adverse effects of gun violence. The Second Amendment is not only a right. It’s also a responsibility.” In the five years Wollschlaeger and his co-plaintiffs have spent fighting in court, there’s been mass shooting after mass shooting, and sadly, the physician says the Pulse shooting in Orlando has already turned into just another statistic. After the world collectively turned away from the City Beautiful to the next tragedy, someone has killed someone else with a gun every few days in Orange County. From June 10 to Aug. 25, 20 other people in Orange

County lost their lives to gun violence. Unlike the Pulse victims, national TV crews weren’t clamoring outside their relatives’ homes to learn more about them. But they too left questions unanswered, beds empty and dreams deferred. “We have to stop being a reactive society that wrings our hands and cries in front of the camera,” he says. “We’re so numb, so conditioned to the onslaught of this news, we don’t pay attention anymore. “If the murder and slaughter of children doesn’t change our minds, why should Orlando be different?”

t the national level, the ban on funding research into gun violence persists in the face of so much tragedy because conservative lawmakers are convinced that research will inexorably lead to regulation. At least one local doctor is trying to change that response. On June 12, Dr. Michael Cheatham and the Orlando Regional Medical Center staff were on the front lines of the Pulse crisis, doing surgery after surgery on victims. After the city calmed down, Cheatham pushed for more federal money to research gun violence and traveled with other trauma surgeons to speak with members of Congress about what could be done to reduce gun violence, according to the Orlando Sentinel. “There were the cries of anguish, screams, doors slamming, family members punching the wall when they realized their loved one’s name had not been read off of the list of survivors,” Cheatham told the Sentinel. “I will never forget that. I don’t want to ever see so many families so devastated again.” There hasn’t been research from the federal government on gun violence since a 1993 study by the New England Journal of Medicine. Funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the study found that “keeping a gun in the home was strongly and independently associated with an increased risk of homicide,” according to the American Psychological Association. Incensed, the NRA persuaded members of Congress in 1996 to strip the CDC’s funding for gun violence research – $2.6 million. Later, Congress forbade the CDC from

using any funds “to advocate or promote gun control.” While the laws didn’t technically ban gun research, CDC directors have avoided studying guns. Even after President Obama ordered the CDC to “conduct or sponsor research into the causes of gun violence and the ways to prevent it” following the Sandy Hook carnage, the federal agency hasn’t budged, citing a continued lack of funding from Congress. The data we do have on gun deaths is pretty startling. In 2013, firearms accounted for 33,636 deaths in the United States. More than 11,000 of those were classified as homicides. Compounding that, 21,175 people committed suicide using a gun.

Florida, meanwhile, has about 1.38 million concealed carry permits, more than any other state. Firearms were responsible for about 18 percent (2,375) of Florida’s fatal injuries in 2014, according to data from the state Department of Health. Out of those fatalities, 63 percent were suicides. As some physicians have pointed out, research on guns may not lead to a ban on firearms or support solutions that gun control advocates have called for. But it would let Americans make their own informed opinions about what causes gun violence. For her part, Hammer rejects a connection between guns and public health, calling it an “anti-gun” agenda, and wouldn’t discuss a possible compromise between the two camps. When asked if she believed the NRA would ever be open to the idea of reexamining existing legislation on firearms, Hammer was clear about her opinion. “That is the dumbest question I have been asked in 40 years,” she told us.

t a rally Aug. 17 at the Hammered Lamb for the Pride Fund, a political action committee focused on electing pro-LGBTQ candidates who support sensible gun control, commissioner Patty Sheehan says she’s still in crisis mode, as if the mass shooting that robbed 49 people of the rest of their lives had happened just yesterday. Whether you agree with her or not about guns, she wants to talk. “This is the worst mass shooting in America, and you don’t want to talk about guns?” Sheehan says, clapping vehemently between words. “That’s insane.” feedback@orlandoweekly.com

ephemeral, but when someone like Frank Holt passes, attention must be paid. Founding executive director of the Mennello Museum of American Art; former City of Orlando public art director; curator; educator; folk and Southwestern art expert; animal lover; and friend: Holt touched countless members of the local community, many of whom gathered last Friday for an informal memorial, at which they raised more than $11,000 for a fund in Frank’s name to grow and maintain the Mennello’s collection. Some of them shared with me these stories about Holt’s legacy.

I just found him to be quiet, with a wry sense of humor, and always well-groomed. His passing is a loss for our community, and he got robbed of a great retirement. “He supported other local artists and folk artists, too. At the [Jeanine Taylor] gallery, he always liked to buy a piece of art by Melissa Menzer.” Kim Robinson Longtime Mennello Museum general manager “I came to work [at the Mennello] in March of 1999. Neither one of us knew anything when we came here. We were very different. It worked out because I was a nuts and bolts person – if you had to get something done, it was me – but he had

FUEL BBQ Owners Chris and Michelle Johnson annexed the space next to their popular blues bar, the Alley, to house this comfy little pit stop knowing there’s no more natural a pairing for blues than barbecue. The barky velour of the brisket is the undoubted star, but don’t pass on the ribs, pulled pork or burnt ends either. Sides are no mere afterthought – great care has gone into perfecting the fried okra, collards, baked beans, and mac and cheese. The cornbread may not be much to look at, but this old family recipe will get you hooked. Closed Mondays. 120 S. Park Ave., Sanford, 407-328-4848; $$

DEVINE WINE & GRILL Unlike the scores of enomatic dispensers found at some other wine bars, the 32 offered at this Oviedo drinkery keep the attitude to a relative minimum, while the scratch kitchen delivers bar fare that’s wellexecuted. Canadians will scoff at the very un-Canadian poutine, but anyone will relish the yellow curry arancini, the lamb burger (fashioned from ground shoulder with an appropriately lamby flavor) and the delightful octopus salad. Just one, sometimes two, desserts are offered, and they change seasonally. Closed Mondays. 15 Alafaya Woods Blvd., Oviedo, 407-359-5016; $$

SOUPA SAIYAN Dragon Ball Z-themed noodle house is a real draw for freaks and geeks, but noodle hounds will appreciate their attention to crafting a fine bowl. “Korean Fire Noodles” with fried egg and barbecue pork may not be a tongue-scorcher, but they’ll turn your chopsticks red; add seared foie gras if you’re feeling fancy. Udon noodles in a vegetarian broth with fried tofu and steamed vegetables hums with umami, and if you’re into pho, the meaty pho dac biet will do no wrong.

SAINT ANEJO MEXICAN KITCHEN

Saint Anejo’s south-of-the-border fare is better than your average TexMexeria’s. Two superbly flavored (and flattened) ribeyes in the carne asada, for example, or a sweet and smoky (but not too sweet and not too smoky) mole rojo, are populist favorites that swing and connect. A sizable selection of margaritas, sangrias, cervezas and cocteles are also offered. Open daily. 5248 Red Bug Lake Road, Winter Springs, 407-636-3600; $$

KING BAO

ORLANDOWEEKLY.COM

While the steamed sugar-dough buns themselves aren’t fresh here (they’re bought frozen, sorry), the crunchy, fatty, succulent or spicy meats they cradle are, be it kimchi fried chicken, Korean short rib or braised pork belly. Vegan and vegetarian options are also offered. Tater tots are the sole side accompaniment, but if you have room for dessert, fried bao with sweet fillings are available. Closed Sundays. 710 N. Mills Ave., 407-2370013; $

CANVAS RESTAURANT & MARKET

Dishes like burrata with caramelized stone fruit, Floribbean grilled shrimp salad, oak-charred octopus, roasted whole fish and succulent apple-bourbon braised short ribs steal the scene. A burger fashioned from short rib and brisket is extraordinarily moist; accompanying fries are no afterthought. A respectable wine list warrants careful perusal, and Key lime pie with toasted meringue is a must. 13615 Sachs Ave., 407-313-7800; $$$$

OUDOM THAI & SUSHI

Oudom, the latest in a string of restaurants to occupy the ground floor of the Sanctuary Downtown Condo building, can’t rely on history to make a successful run; rather, it’s banking on patrons seeking straight-ahead Siamese cuisine in a swanky atmosphere. We sampled everything from pad Thai to panang curry, and two dishes were stellar surprises – crispy duck and whole snapper. 100 S. Eola Drive, 407-849-3739; $$

THE PEPPY BISTRO

Mexican dishes comprise but a small part of a menu dominated by Italian and Spanish classics – a fat meatball fashioned from ground beef and short rib; a seafood paella we can’t wholly recommend on account of encountering some broken mussel shells; and lamb chops over couscous. College Park imbibers have been heard to rave about Peppy Bistro’s happy hour. Closed Sundays. 2611 Edgewater Drive, 407-420-1155; $$$ n

The Light Between Oceans BY STE V E S C H N E I DE R

OPENING THIS WEEK Kickboxer: Vengeance Hey, haven’t we already had a movie this summer about some sort of Ultimate Punching champ who has to avenge a dead sibling? Yes, but that one was about chicks, silly! Now that there’s a version where the leads are all dudes, 4chan can sleep good at night. In the role of the grizzled cornerman Is Jean-Claude Van Damme – which sure seems like a ticket to brain damage, because just try to figure out what that guy is trying to tell you. (NR)

The Light Between Oceans In the years following World War I, Michael Fassbender and his wife decide to claim an infant that washes up on the shore of the island where they live. Sounds like a fresh take on the Moses story, although in today’s Hollywood, you just know the pitch meeting included the name Kal-El. (PG-13) ALSO PLAYING Don’t Breathe The team behind 2013’s Evil Dead remake shows us what happens when a bunch of would-be thieves break into the home of a rich blind man. Apparently, it’s worse than what happens when you steal from the guy who wrote Wait Until Dark. (R)

Equity Another financial thriller about skullduggery on Wall Street, but this time with the kicker that the major players are all women. Yay! Now we get to hate EVERYBODY! (R)

Floyd Norman: An Animated Life A documentary profile of the first black animator to be hired by Disney, who was finally let go 15 years ago but still goes to the studio every day to offer unpaid help and advice. Or as white people call it, tweeting. (NR) 36

(PG-13)

Hands of Stone Robert DeNiro plays Ray Arcel, the boxing trainer who helped Roberto Duran prepare to face Sugar Ray Leonard in the ring. But only after Duran gave up on trying to figure out what Jean-Claude Van Damme was yelling at him. (R)

Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV “It is difficult to imagine anyone wanting to pay to sit through it,” says the Hollywood Reporter. But isn’t it great that movies can still exceed the human imagination? (PG-13)

Mechanic: Resurrection Sure, you and I might be sick to death of movies about a master criminal who’s forced out of retirement to save the woman he loves. But Jason Statham needs Uber money, dammit! (R) Southside With You On their first date together, Barack Obama and Michelle Robinson engage in all the usual activities: going to church, visiting a museum, forging a birth certificate. You know, the staples. Interestingly, we’ve already had a movie about Trump’s first date with Melania: It was called Pretty Woman. (PG-13) Tickled In this shocking documentary, we learn that the tickle-fetish subculture is plagued by online fraud. Which certainly changes my plans for the weekend, I can tell you. (R)

So it took a couple months to figure out how to lock into that. It also wasn’t a particularly easy year, personally speaking. So there were some physical and mental obstacles that probably delayed things a bit.

You toured extensively prior to making this record, and you’ve got a lot of dates coming up. Was it hard getting back on that bus the first time?

BACK WHERE I BELONG Baroness pull back from the brink for their most accomplished album yet BY BILL FORMAN

PHOTO BY JIMMY HUBBARD

lot can happen in a matter of seconds: Brakes fail, guardrails give way, lives change. “Everything also slows down,” says Baroness frontman John Baizley, recalling how his band’s tour bus plummeted down a 30-foot embankment on its way to a gig in the southwest of England. But Baizley and his cohorts beat the odds, and are now touring on behalf of their most successful album to date. Produced by David Fridmann of Flaming Lips fame, Purple debuted at No. 1 on the indie charts, and placed No. 7 on Rolling Stone’s Best Metal Albums of 2015 list. Despite the happy ending, the more than two years between accident and album release were anything but easy. Baizley, whose left arm was shattered in the crash, only regained the ability to play guitar after surgeons implanted the two 9-inch titanium plates that now hold his elbow in place. Meanwhile, the band’s rhythm section resigned, leaving Baizley and longtime guitarist Peter Adams to recruit drummer Sebastian Thomas and bassist Nick Jost, who is also responsible for the keyboards that play a big role on the latest album.

That was a breeze, honestly. I had no problem with it whatsoever. I thought I would; it made sense. But it just didn’t rattle me at all. I mean, there are moments at night – if it’s raining, you know, if it’s cold, if there’s ice on the road – my first thought is “If it’s gonna happen, let it be quick.” Because, you know, when we were in the accident, nothing was quick. It felt like an eternity. But now, I’ve already gone through a period where I’ve accepted my own mortality. So I’ve crossed that threshold. Usually, when artists go through a situation like that, they start writing very personal songs about it. But you’ve continued to use a lot of fantasy tropes in your lyrics.

Well, my goal as a lyricist has always been to write about the experience that I have. But I make a very conscious attempt to not focus on the specifics and the idiosyncrasies that make it the story of one person. I’ve always thought of lyrics as a universal language of pain and suffering, and anguish, and torment, and reflection.

Musically, the Savannah, Georgia, band has managed to take several steps forward. Arrangements on Purple, the group’s fourth studio album, draw more upon the post-punk, progressive rock and downtuned sludge elements that were largely drowned out in the driving melodic metal that dominated their first three releases. You forgot joy. Fridmann’s production techniques and Yeah, but I try to be realistic, and joy psychedelic inclinations bring a sonic is the by-product of pain. You have to adventurousness to the table, resulting understand the opposite of joy in order in the band’s first true to understand joy. And “headphones album.” vice-versa.

Ava Mendoza BY B AO L E - H U U

It’s usually the party, not the fallout, for our Best of Orlando issue that gets crazy. But, hoo boy, that was some shit show. Stay nuts, Orlando.

THE BEAT

Lil Yachty (Aug. 25, the Social) is surging up like an ATLien geyser right now. The thing is, there’s definitely a generational aspect going on here. For sure, the young Atlanta rapper presents some immediate intrigue. He’s got a left-side vibe that radiates newschool flair and turnt-up weirdness like some Dirty South cousin of the Odd Future clan. However, he’s got a vocalization style that staggers on that dubious ground where personal style and technical deficiency blur together in a way that’s highly debatable. Besides his slack flow, dude practically exhales Autotune, which sometimes works in his more out-there moments where he obscures the rap-sing line. But he holds onto that device like a security blanket. Based on the size and fever of the capacity crowd in Orlando, my opinion on Yachty will be unpopular. Then again, judging from the YouTube comments on his videos, maybe not. Kids have never needed more than energy and attitude to rally around something, and Lil Yachty’s current fire is undeniable. But a cultural phenomenon does not a fundamental artist make. And, right now, little else is manifest. The Civic Minded Five’s latest avantgarde bill of national caliber (Aug. 25, the Gallery at Avalon Island) collided the major forces of Ava Mendoza and Jessica Pavone. Brooklyn transplant Mendoza is the highly noted experimen-

Despite that main gig’s name, however, the things she did on guitar at this solo performance – from making a slide sound like whale songs to conjuring aboriginal spirits – were like the very forces of nature. At times, her noisebaked badlands blues plays like some epic, elemental cross of Sir Richard Bishop and Earth, but with a wild-child streak. Across sonic landscapes that are gorgeous, foreboding and sonically feral, it’s a sound at once forward and ancient. Proving her own notable avant-garde bona fides, NYC’s Jessica Pavone takes a classical instrument (viola) and, through technique and effects, stretches it into far realms that span harrowing edges, dark atmosphere, eerie loneliness and noisefried intensity. But this wasn’t just some exercise in ingenuity or, worse, strangeness for its own sake. No, this riveting display was a thing of experimental power and expressive mastery. The latest Endoxa Booking show (Aug. 22, Will’s Pub) turned the stage into an altar to the almighty riff in a doomdominated, next-wave bill. Headlining was Monolord, another canal dredger from Riding Easy Records, an undersung boutique label loaded with neo-vintage

heavy-rock bands that got on our radar permanently last summer after they showcased quality acts like Slow Season, Electric Citizen and Mondo Drag on a label tour. This was Monolord’s first headlining tour of North America and they came with conquering intent, packing the most distilled and funneled grooves of the night. Live, their merger of heavy doom and fatass fuzz plays like a groaning mammoth set to meter, with an advance purposefully distilled for pure power and massive dynamics. This crush is for real. Before them, Fresno’s Beastmaker laid down retro doom dripping in macabre ’70s imagery and bearing enough occult references to sate a legion of dark nerds. There was lots of pulpy drama but, luckily, enough heft and conviction to make it all legit. Austin opener Sweat Lodge stood apart and impressed. They, too, are on another exceptional small label, Brutal Panda Records (one of the better-curated heavy music labels, home to beasts like Whores, Fight Amp, Cherubs, Helms Alee and Mantar). They’re the only non-doom band on the tour, with a proto-metal sound and a name that perfectly signals their evocative ambition. Live, their psychotropic deep dive is a sensory warp of thick echoes, other-side howls and overdriven electricity. And if that nod to the Native American spirit of primordiality wasn’t explicit enough for you, the image of bassist Austin Shockley (who’s also in notable band Warm Soda) rocking the raven braids shirtless will no doubt send it home. It’s the soundtrack to a hard rock vision quest conjured by skilled sonic shamans. baolehuu@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

Barge MUSIC

OUR PICKS FOR THE BEST EVENTS THIS WEEK

The last few years have seen a bumper crop of young, new, incredible hardcore bands shaking off all traces of metalcore malaise and going straight for the good stuff: Agnostic Front, Youth of Today, Cro-Mags. Whether you’re talking Pure Disgust or Protestor or Leather Daddy, there is more than enough good new music to appeal to younger fans seeing it all for the first time, or older lifers still wearing a faded Cause for Alarm shirt. Which is a long-winded way of saying that you need to see Richmond’s Barge. The speedfreak quartet have already dropped a handful of tapes and 45s, with an incredible full-length on the brink of release. Barge keep it young, loud and snotty, with their buzzbomb songs rarely – if ever – straying over the two-minute mark. The pure velocity of Barge’s songs takes our breath away on record, so we can only gleefully anticipate the joyous chaos of seeing them live. – Matthew Moyer with Klout, Flamethrower, Burn to Learn | 9 p.m. | Uncle Lou’s Entertainment Hall, 1016 N. Mills Ave. | 407-898-0009 | $5

JT Habersaat Wednesday-Thursday, Aug. 31-Sept. 1

COMEDY

Austin-via-NYC comic JT Habersaat has made a name for himself with the Altercation Punk Comedy Tour, a stand-up road show that has crisscrossed the country every year since 2009. His podcast, The Road, is an illuminating visit to the world of the touring comedian, with frequent side trips into the world of punk-rock music fandom. Habersaat’s most recent comedy album, the aptly named Misanthrope, debuted at No. 2 on iTunes’ comedy charts earlier this month, and with support from recently departed (to Chicago, not the afterlife) Orlando comic Larry Fulford, this show should be another notch on Spacebar’s comedy heavyweight championship belt. – Thaddeus McCollum with Larry Fulford, Marcus Crespo, Heather Shaw | 8 p.m. | Spacebar, 2428 E.

Del Shores: Singularly Sordid! THEATER

The creator of Southern-fried soap-opera plays like Sordid Lives and Daddy’s Dyin’: Who’s Got the Will?, Del Shores, has returned after a dark period in his life to perform in a one-man show. In Singularly Sordid!, Shores discusses his journey through the world of dating after divorce and navigating the trials and tribulations of being 58 and back on the market. This appearance by Shores caps off the Footlight Theater’s run of his most popular play, Sordid Lives, and Shores himself participates in a talk-back with the audience after the Friday night showing of that play, marking 20 years of the cult favorite. – Aileen Perilla 7:30 p.m. | Footlight Theatre, the Parliament House, 410 N.

A Midsummer Night’s Dream

Monday, Sept. 5

Florida State vs. Ole Miss

THEATER

SPORTS

Weekends in September just got a whole lot more Shakespearean at Stonewall Bar. The recently renovated gay bar is hosting a modern, gender-bending retelling of the Bard’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream on their covered back patio. Produced by Unseen Images Theatre and Howler’s Theatre, it’s a rare opportunity to see the classic comedy production in its intended outdoor setting. There may not have been a bar attached to Billy Shake’s Globe Theatre back in the late 1500s, but Puck’s mood-altering pixie dust could easily translate to a modern-day Bud Light. Just don’t sprinkle any in your eyes: We want you to experience a lighthearted tale of young loves duking it out with a mischievous fairy, not a lager-fueled trip to the ophthalmologist. – Abby Stassen

Opening the college football season, this neutral-site game is the seventh for the Seminoles in Orlando and the first appearance for the Ole Miss Rebels. One of the goals for the recently renovated stadium was to draw more college and pro football action, and it looks like it will pay off in the coming months as the former Citrus Bowl hosts the Florida Classic, the FHSAA football championships, three college bowl games and the NFL Pro Bowl. FSU and Ole Miss landed at the No. 4 and 11 spots in the AP’s Top 25 poll a few weeks ago, so if pundits are correct, this should be a tight game. This is the first regular-season opening game for an SEC team since Sept. 28, 1991, when Florida defeated Mississippi State, so if tradition holds, we’ll be hearing a lot of war chants up and down Orange Avenue late into the night. – Marimar Toledo

The Reunion JOHN MORELAND PHOTO BY JOEY KNEISER

MUSIC

Look at the details under the generic official name of this Labor Day weekend blowout and what it translates to is “Firestone Reunion,” which is jackpot to EDM aficionados and historians. The lineup is a dream-team of ’90s dance-music stars cherry-picked from the golden era when Orlando was a global pacesetter. The fact that hall-of-fame Florida DJs like Andy Hughes, Stylus and D-Xtreme (doing an Abyss tag-team set), Magic Mike, Monk, Sandy, AK1200, Cliff T, Huda Hudia and Eric Berretta are assembled onto a single bill would’ve made this an event for the books. But to make it a totally historical bonanza, the marquee is maxed out by international legends like Liquid (the U.K. act that did “Sweet Harmony,” one of the best breakbeat anthems of all time), DJ Micro (spinning an exclusive Progression set!), DJ Dan and Stanton Warriors. And all of them will be doing classic sets. For old-school heads, this will be the ultimate. Feel. The. Bass. – Bao Le-Huu with Stanton Warriors, DJ Dan, Liquid, Magic Mike and more | 8 p.m. | Venue 578, 578 N. Orange Ave. | 407-872-0066 | venue578.com | $30-$50

MUSIC

As mainstream country music stagnates into a cesspool of truck commercials, dirt roads and anti-intellectual propaganda, young songwriters have had to adopt the label of “Americana” to distinguish themselves from an art form that is increasingly all hat, no cattle. Two rising stars of that talented fringe movement stop into the Social this week for a show that’s 100 percent pure country gold. John Moreland, from Tulsa, Oklahoma, turns out the kind of forlorn solo ballads that go perfectly with 3 a.m. whiskey-fueled heartaches. He has a knack for inserting a turn of phrase or metaphor into a song that can cut the listener to the bone in an instant. Slightly sunnier, though no less brilliant, is Aaron Lee Tasjan, a 30-year-old songwriter, poet and guitarist who has managed to add stints with bands as diverse as Drivin’ N’ Cryin’ and the New York Dolls to his résumé. Tasjan’s migration to Nashville in 2013 has resulted in his strongest material, with songs like “East Nashville Song About a Train” and “Florida Man” becoming underground favorites. All due apologies to Garth Brooks, but this is going to be the country show of the season. – TM with Mike Dunn | 8 p.m. | The Social, 54 N. Orange Ave. | 407-246-1419 | thesocial.org | $12-$15

Uncomfortable Brunch Presents: Funny Games FILM

“Subtlety” is not the virtue that comes to mind when describing the films shown at Uncomfortable Brunch (mission statement: “showing movies that make you feel bad while serving food that makes you feel good”). No, most of the movies in this series, and especially this week’s selection, have a point to make, even if they have to ram it down your throat. (Sometimes the throat-ramming even happens on screen! So yeah, not subtle.) It’s more about single-mindedness, passion, intensity, maybe a little rage. Funny Games, Michael Haneke’s 1998 “torture comedy,” is a sadistic blunt instrument with which the director hits his audience over the head repeatedly until they realize their own complicity in the culture of violence. Two clean-cut young men torment a suburban family, without cause, for almost two hours; do you watch? If so, what keeps you watching? A clue to the film’s infuriating nobody-wins premise is this comment from its director: “Anyone who leaves the cinema doesn’t need the film, and anybody who stays does.” Well all right, who’s ready for pancakes? – Jessica Bryce Young noon | Will’s Pub, 1042 N.

I have been seeing sex workers for 30 years, and I shudder to think how shitty my life would have been without them. Some have become friends, but I’ve appreciated all of them. Negative stereotypes about guys like me are not fair, but sex work does have its problems. Some clients (including females) are difficult – difficult clients aren’t typically violent; more often they’re inconsiderate and demanding. Clients need to understand that all people have limits and feelings, and money doesn’t change that. But what can we clients do to fight stupid, regressive, repressive laws that harm sex workers? Not A John You can speak up, NAJ. The current line from prohibitionists – people who want sex work to remain illegal – is that all women who sell sex are victims and all men who buy sex are monsters. But talk to actual sex workers and you hear about considerate, regular clients who are kind, respectful and sometimes personally helpful in unexpected ways. (A sex worker friend had a regular client who was a dentist; he did some expensive dental work for my uninsured friend – and he did it for free, not for trade.) You also hear about clients who are threatening or violent – and how laws against sex work make it impossible for them to go to the police, making them more vulnerable to violence, exploitation, and abuse, not less. There is a large and growing sex workers’ rights movement, NAJ, which Emily Bazelon wrote about in a terrific cover story for the New York Times Magazine (“Should Prostitution Be a Crime?” May 5, 2016). Bazelon spoke with scores of sex workers active in the growing and increasingly effective decriminalization movement. Amnesty International recently called for the full decriminalization of sex work, joining Human Rights Watch, the World Health Organization, and other large, mainstream health and human rights groups. But there’s something missing from the movement to decriminalize sex work: clients like you, NAJ. Maggie McNeill, a sex worker, activist and writer, wrote a blistering piece on her blog (“The Honest Courtesan”) about a recent undercover police operation in Seattle. Scores of men seeking to hire sex workers – the men ranged from surgeons to bus drivers to journalists – were arrested and subjected to ritualized public humiliation designed to discourage other men from paying for sex. “These crusades do nothing but hurt the most vulnerable individuals on both sides of the transaction,” McNeill wrote. “The only way to stop this [is for] all of you clients out there get off of your duffs and fight. Regular clients outnumber full-time whores

by at least 60 to 1; gentlemen, I suggest you rethink your current silence, unless you want to be the next one with your name and picture splashed across newspapers, TV screens and websites.” The legal risks and social stigma attached to buying sex doubtless leave some clients feeling like they can’t speak up and join the fight, and the much-touted “Nordic Model” is upping the legal stakes for buyers of sex. (The Nordic Model makes buying sex illegal, not selling it. In theory, only clients are supposed to suffer, but in practice, the women are punished, too. Bazelon unpacks the harms of the Nordic Model in her story.) But sex workers today, like gays and lesbians not too long ago, are coming out in evergreater numbers to fight for their rights in the face of potentially dire legal and social consequences. Clients need to join the fight – or perhaps I should say clients need to rejoin the fight. In The Origins of Sex: A History of the First Sexual Revolution, which I read while I was away on vacation, author Faramerz Dabhoiwala writes about “Societies of Virtue” formed all over England in the late 17th century. Adulterers, fornicators, and Sabbath-breakers were persecuted by these groups, NAJ, but their campaigns against prostitutes were particularly vicious and indiscriminate; women were thrown in jail or publicly whipped for the crime of having a “lewd” appearance. The persecution of streetwalkers, brothel owners and women guilty of “[walking] quietly about the street” went on for decades. Then a beautiful thing happened. “In the spring of 1711, a drive against ‘loose women and their male followers’ in Covent Garden was foiled when ‘the constables were dreadfully maimed, and one mortally wounded, by ruffians aided by 40 soldiers of the guards, who entered into a combination to protect the women,’” writes Dabhoiwala. “On another occasion in the East End, a crowd of over a thousand seamen mobbed the local magistrates and forcibly released a group of convicted prostitutes being sent to a house of correction.” Male followers of loose women, soldiers of the guard, mobs of seamen – not altruists, but likely clients of the women they fought to defend. And thanks to their efforts and the efforts of 18th-century sex workers who lawyered up, marched into court and sued the pants off Society of Virtue members, by the middle of the 18th century, women could walk the streets without being arrested or harassed – even women known to be prostitutes. I’m not suggesting that today’s clients form mobs and attack prohibitionists, cops, prosecutors and their enablers in the media. But clients can and should be out there speaking up in defense of sex workers and themselves. Sex workers are speaking up and fighting back – on Twitter and other orlandoweekly.com

●

social-media platforms, sometimes anonymously, but increasingly under their own names – and they’re staring down the stigma, the shame and the law on their own. It’s time for their clients to join them in the fight. I’m a 26-year-old gay man, and I like to explore my feminine side by wearing female clothes. I have a boyfriend who likes to do the same thing, but he doesn’t have the courage to tell his parents that he’s gay and explores his feminine side by wearing female clothes. I want to adopt early school-age boys and teach them that they can explore their feminine side by wearing female clothes. My question has two parts. First, in regard to my boyfriend, how can I encourage him to tell his parents he’s gay and wants to explore his feminine side by wearing female clothes? Second, in regard to adopting early schoolage boys, how do I teach an early school-age boy that it’s OK for them to explore their feminine side by wearing female clothes and also teach them that they don’t have to be gay at the same time? Dressing A Future Together Wear whatever you like, DAFT, but please don’t adopt any children – boys or otherwise, early school-age or newborn, not now, probably not ever. Because a father who pushes his son into a dress is just as abusive and unfit as one who forbids his son to wear a dress. You two don’t need kids, DAFT, you need a therapist who can help your boyfriend with his issues (the closet, not wearing female clothes) and help you with yours (your extremely odd and potentially damaging ideas about parenting, not wearing women’s clothes). Before I sign off: a big thank you to the Dan Savages who filled in for me while I was on vacation – Dan Savage, Orlando-based sportswriter; Dan Savage, London-based theatrical marketing executive; and Dan Savage, Brooklyn-based designer. You guys did a great job! And here’s something clients of sex workers can do without going public: The Sex Workers Outreach Project (SWOP) is running a pilot program to help incarcerated sex workers. Send a book to an imprisoned sex worker, become a pen pal or make a donation by going to SWOPbehindbars.org and clicking on “10 Ways to Help Incarcerated Sex Workers.” Non-clients are welcome to help, too!
