Readers react to stories from last week. On June 14, we reported that, according to internal polling data from the Trump campaign obtained by ABC News, if the 2020 presidential election were held tomorrow between President Donald Trump and Democratic candidate Joe Biden, the former vice president would whip the 45th president 55 to 39 percent in Florida. Specific figures for how Trump would match up against any other members of the enormous field of Democratic primary candidates were not broken out. @Lorelai Gilbert Waiting for all the MAGATS to cite the 2016 polls as evidence that polls are worthless even though they were correct and Hillary won the popular vote by three million. @Chris Ryan I would vote for a tapeworm if it was a primary candidate versus Trump at this point.
for the execution of gay people hosted a three-day “Make America Straight Again” conference over the weekend. In a video announcing the hateful hoedown, Patrick Boyle of the Revival Baptist Church said the aim was to expose the “reprobates” and “sodomites and the filth that they’ve been spreading to the homes of families across the world and the United States of America.” @Karen Handley Well, well, bless their ignorant hearts! @Lori Baker Bolt I thought God loved ALL his children. Does this church believe differently? @Sharin Dudley We know their hate won’t last or do anything. [It’s] mind blowing [that] guys like Boyle are allowed to walk the earth with the many amazing gays (myself included as bi) that do great things and spread love here.
@Adam Massimo Just like Joe Biden, this article is very touching.

DeSantis signs legislation banning nonexistent sanctuary cities, lawmakers call for Pulse to be designated a national memorial, and other news you may have missed last week. »
DeSantis signs legislation to ban so-called sanctuary cities in Florida: Gov. Ron DeSantis signed legislation last week banning sanctuary cities in Florida. The bill, which calls for one of the nation’s toughest bans on sanctuary cities, was sent to the governor earlier this month. The Legislature passed it in early May after debate and a backlash from immigrant-rights groups. Under the bill, local governments would be required to “use their best efforts to support the enforcement of federal immigration law.” An important reminder: There are no “sanctuary cities” in Florida.

Gun advocates appeal Florida’s ‘bump stock’ ban: Attorneys for a group of plaintiffs filed a notice that they will take the dispute to the First District Court of Appeal, according to documents on the Leon County clerk of court’s website. The notice does not detail their arguments, but they are seeking to overturn a dismissal issued May 10. The case stems from a law passed after the February 2018 mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland.

Appeals court weighs 2017 Florida law that seeks to boost charter schools: Numerous school boards across the state filed lawsuits contending that the law infringed on their rights to operate school districts. One of the major issues in the case is the law’s authorization of “schools of hope,” a new type of charter school aimed at areas where children have been served by traditional public schools that are low-performing. Attorneys for the school boards argue that the law gives too much power to the state and violates part of the Florida Constitution regarding the local operation of schools.

Central Florida lawmakers call for an audit of the onePULSE Foundation: Last week, after a tense exchange between a Pulse victim’s mother and the former club’s owner during a news conference announcing a bill that would designate the Pulse site as a federally recognized memorial, lawmakers moved to call for an audit of the onePULSE Foundation. According to the foundation’s contract with Orange County for a $10 million grant to help get the project underway, officials already require an audit. For up to five years after its completion, the county “shall have the right to audit from time to time.”

Central Florida congressional members request federally recognized national memorial status for Pulse site: On the eve of the third anniversary of the shooting at the gay nightclub Pulse, U.S. Reps. Darren Soto, Stephanie Murphy and Val Demings called for the former club to become a federally recognized national memorial. The congressional trio introduced a bill in the U.S. House calling for federal designation. A companion bill is still required to be filed in the U.S. Senate.

Orlando attorney John Morgan has contributed nearly $2.3 million to his committee Florida for a Fair Wage: The Morgan Law Firm P.A. last month contributed $812,963 to the political committee Florida for a Fair Wage, which is collecting petition signatures to put the minimum-wage amendment on the November ballot, according to a finance report posted on the state Division of Elections website. In all, Morgan, who chairs the committee, has contributed nearly $2.27 million to the political committee. Under the proposal, the state’s minimum wage would go to $10 an hour in 2021 and increase by $1 each year until it hits $15 an hour in 2026. Florida’s minimum wage is currently $8.46 an hour. orlandoweekly.com

WAGGING THE DOG Lying is a tent pole of the Trump Circus, but I still want to believe he wouldn’t lie us into yet another disastrous war PHOTO BY MICHAEL VADON
BY JE FFREY C. BILL M A N
There are times when the critics and convince your followers of your White House’s torrent of falsehoods seems almost inconsequential – another part of the Trump Circus to which we’ve acclimated somehow. Through June 7, the Washington Post had chronicled nearly 10,800 of Donald Trump’s lies and misleading statements since he became president – an average of more than 12 a day made on Twitter, at his free-wheeling campaign rallies, and while chatting with his favorite Fox News hosts. (On April 25, he made 45 false claims in a 45-minute interview with chief sycophant Sean Hannity. That’s almost impressive.) He lies about immigration. He lies about the Mueller report. He lies about his internal polling. He lies about Democrats wanting to murder newborn babies. He lies about trade deals. He lies about environmental proposals. He lies about lying. It’s second nature, what inevitably happens when he runs his mouth with no filter, little grasp of the consequences of his words and a pathological need to win the approbation of his intended audience. His staff does the same thing. Sarah Huckabee Sanders, who announced last week that she’ll step down as press secretary at the end of this month, lied about things large and small, denied facts that were in plain sight, and did it all with the monotone dispassion of a bored, drydrunk soccer mom. They all lie. Lying is a tent pole of the Trump Circus. It generates the cycles of outrage and headlines that make Trump the center of attention. (In May, the president had nearly twice as many social media interactions, cable news mentions and Google search interest as all 23 Democratic presidential candidates combined.) The antagonistic coverage also gives Trump fuel to portray the “Fake News Media” as an enemy of the state, a tactic straight out of the authoritarian handbook to discredit
invented reality. We’ve grown accustomed to the lying. His base either believes it or just delights in the trolling; everyone else rolls their eyes. But Trump’s approval numbers don’t change. He’s a liar, everyone knows it, and we either care or we don’t. Trump’s impulsiveness and perpetually changing positions – the fact that what he says today may be memory-holed tomorrow – have hurt American credibility on the world stage, though on occasion they’ve given allies and adversaries the impression that they’re dealing with an unstable, possibly irrational person whom they should consider placating to avert catastrophe. But Trump’s lack of credibility hasn’t provoked a war, at least not yet. Which brings me to the crisis with Iran. Last week, a Japanese and a Norwegian oil tanker in the Gulf of Oman were struck by what the U.S. quickly claimed were Iranian limpet mines, which use magnets to attach to boats below the waterline. The Pentagon then released a grainy black-andwhite video of what it said was an Iranian Revolutionary Guard patrol boat arriving on the scene and removing an undetonated limpet mine from the tanker’s hull, allegedly so Iran’s involvement would not be discovered. Two quick issues arise. One, the video showed the Iranians removing a bomb from well above the waterline, which seems to indicate that this wasn’t a limpet bomb. And two, why would Iran responding to a distress call in waters near its territory be evidence of culpability? Indeed, the Japanese owner of one of the tankers contradicted the U.S. account, saying at a press conference that the explosion on the ship wasn’t triggered by a mine or a torpedo but by something dropped from an airplane. “We received reports that something
flew towards the ship,” he said Friday. “The place where the projectile landed was significantly higher than the water level, so we are absolutely sure that this wasn’t a torpedo. I do not think there was a time bomb or an object attached to the side of the ship.” Even having lived through the Bush administration lying to the world to engineer a ground war in Iraq, even knowing that the U.S. has a long history of bullshitting our way into bullshit wars – the Gulf of Tonkin, the U.S.S. Maine – I want to believe that Trump’s team isn’t lying about Iran to gin up a conflict. Even though National Security Adviser John Bolton is an unreconstructed neocon who’s never met a war he didn’t think someone else’s kids should die in. (He managed to avoid service in Vietnam – “I had no desire to die in a Southeast Asian rice paddy,” he later wrote – though he was, naturally, a big supporter of the war.) Even though Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is an end-times fundamentalist who believes a conflict in the Middle East will hasten Armageddon and bring Jesus back. Even though Trumpworld is up to its eyeballs in shady connections to the corrupt Saudi regime, which is vying with Iran for regional supremacy. Even though Trump started us down this path by reneging on the nuclear deal that the Obama administration and other world leaders had hashed out with Iran. (On Monday, after being blamed for the oil tanker explosions, Iran announced that it would soon break the uranium stockpile limit set by that deal, and that it might begin enriching uranium to nearweapons grade.) Even though they lie all the time, about everything, big or small, consequential or quotidian. Despite all that, I still want to believe that even an administration as mephitic as Trump’s wouldn’t lie us into yet another disastrous war, with the memory of the last one still fresh. And I still want to believe that, while Iran has certainly been a malign actor over the years, the president meant what he said about Iraq being “the single worst decision ever made,” a mistake he wouldn’t repeat. But given what we know, such a belief is impossibly naive. And that’s the real problem with Trump’s gaslight presidency. feedback@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

Green sea turtle PHOTO BY JESSE SCHOFF
TURTLE TURNAROUND
As Melbourne Beach’s nesting green sea turtle population skyrockets, UCF researchers are trying to better understand why BY XANDER P ETERS
I
n 1978, when the federal government listed green sea turtle breeding colonies in Florida as endangered, the widely adored species seemed to be on the ropes in this part of the world. Hope for thriving future populations was limited at best. Years of human-caused degradation to the species’ nesting and feeding habits had taken its toll. In 1993, more than a decade after some regionally specific green sea turtle populations were included on the endangered species list, female sea turtles in Florida laid a meager 435 nests, according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The low nesting rates were consistent with what researchers at the Archie Carr National Wildlife Refuge in Brevard County – established in 1991 as a protected area for loggerhead and green sea turtles – were seeing, too. Similarly, environmental scientists were finding 10, maybe 20 at most, green sea turtle nests each year. Then, surprisingly, that changed for the better. The population began to boom. “Two years ago, we had almost 16,000 nests in the same area,” says Gustavo Stahelin, a doctoral candidate at the
University of Central Florida’s Marine Turtle Research Group. Stahelin, a native of Southern Brazil who’s studied sea turtles since 2004, says researchers are certain of this because they’ve monitored the same site for 20 years. “So this number is increasing kind of exponentially. And this is not only happening in Melbourne Beach, not only in the Archie Carr National Wildlife Refuge,” Stahelin says. “This is kind of happening throughout Florida. So this is great. Great news for them.” So great, in fact, that the species’ sudden population explosion was among the reasons why it was federally down-listed from endangered to threatened in 2016. But with the population surge in recent years comes new questions for Stahelin and other researchers. While much work has been done in the past to study the species’ nesting beaches, what remains murky is the aggregation of the population’s genetics. That’s why Stahelin and the Marine Turtle Research Group have teamed up with UCF biologist and genetic researcher Eric Hoffman on a project that seeks to better understand green sea turtles’ genetic data through the use of new genomic-scale techniques.
Stahelin and Hoffman compare the technology to genetic testing and analysis like 23andMe, which essentially maps out where a person’s ancestry is derived. Their research would do the same for Florida’s green sea turtle population, they say. “Basically the turtles nest in different locations across the globe,” Hoffman says. “And because this is where they mate and where they lay their eggs, there’s a unique genetic ID that sort of forms for each of these populations.” It’s a recognizable form of DNA that describes each population’s origins, in other words. “I’m using a recently developed molecular analysis next-generation sequencing,” Stahelin explains. “This is the broad type of analysis, in which instead of looking at one genetic marker and one piece of DNA” – as sea turtle researchers were only previously capable of – “I’m generating 10,000, 20,000, 30,000 pieces, and then I’m comparing those.” By doing so, the researchers hope to create more detailed maps of the species’ population. If the DNA is relatively similar within the population at the Archie Carr National Wildlife Refuge, that means in part that previous conservation efforts were successful and allowed the population to boom from within over the last couple of decades. But if they find a “huge difference in genetic diversity, it could mean that it’s not exactly those animals from the [1990s] that reproduced really well and their offspring reached maturity and now it’s coming back,” Stahelin says. “It might be animals elsewhere who are like, ‘Hey, look at this prime spot that no one’s using, no other green turtles.’” The latter theory is unlikely, Stahelin admits. He’s also careful to say that his work is not an attempt to prove that the recovery isn’t real. “It’s just a way to confirm, to double check,” Stahelin says. “It’s a way to use research and to use the best genetic information that we can get today.” Ultimately, he says, the research could be used to improve sea turtle conservation efforts. “The idea is, with better information and better data, by being better informed of the size of the population, how many populations we have, where they’re going, where they’re coming from, and so on, we can have more directed and effective conservation plans for [the species],” Stahelin says. He adds: “The idea is not only to protect green turtles in Florida. It’s to protect them as a species worldwide.” xpeters@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

imothy Adebule paced through Three Masks near downtown Orlando on a recent Tuesday, prepping the gallery for evening activities. An African drumming class would soon be getting underway in one room, and a capoeira lesson in another. Adebule shuttled chairs past a wall of Ivorian masks and bright-colored feathered caps from Cameroon, practically disappearing behind a row of woodcarved Guinean statues. The 6,000-square-foot storefront off West Colonial Drive is a bustling commercial gallery most days and a community center on others. But for owner Adebule, it has adopted a greater function in Orlando: as a metaphorical museum of Afro-diasporic history. “These are not just idols or figures,” he says, eyeing his vast collection from West Africa. “These are stories.”

ORLANDO WEEKLY ● JUNE 19-25, 2019 ● orlandoweekly.com
For more than 20 years, Three Masks has served as Orlando’s only Black-owned, self-sustaining commercial art gallery dedicated to telling and preserving the Diaspora’s stories. Adebule opened the gallery in 1996 as a small storefront near what is now the Amway Center. He described the Black arts scene, at the time, as laid-back and … “How do I use the word?” he asks. “Backwards.” Adebule remembers a greatly fragmented Black arts community, marked mainly by the Zora Neale Hurston Festival for the Arts and two shops owned by Kenyans who sold wood carvings from their regions. “I’d usually see others – white Americans – having African stores,” Adebule remembers. “And I’m saying ‘Shouldn’t we be the ones to tell our stories?’” Initially, Three Masks drew Orlando residents and mostly
national artists, host performances, and bring African-based virtual reality rides. “Nothing like this exists here,” says Bennett. The presence of a small handful of Blackowned commercial art galleries has created spaces for Orlando’s African American artists to showcase their work. But outside of these spaces, obstacles remain. Orlandobased artist Jane Turner attributes part of the difficulty to how Black artists are perceived by white gallerists. “I really don’t think that they view us as a force,” she says. “We’re still considered outsider artists.” Turner exhibited at the Maitland Art Center for the first time this year, adding that she had been surprised at how few African American artists had showcased their work there. “The art center has been in my community forever,” she says. “We’d been passing by and were never invited to come in.” Part of the problem, she adds, is that Black artists in Orlando have, traditionally, functioned individually, exhibiting where welcomed and seeking opportunities in cities like Atlanta, Miami and New York with more structured Black art communities. But a new wave of Black artists in Orlando are commanding a presence and creating a structure within and outside of institutional spaces.

white tourists. Disney’s creation of Animal Kingdom, he says, gave his gallery more visibility, transforming it into a visible hub for African culture. He sold authentic African fabrics, essential oils, incense, shea butter, black soap and became, unofficially, a cultural ambassador. “Are you sure you’re from Africa?” Adebule, a London-born Nigerian, remembers people would ask him. “They’d never seen anybody from Africa before,” he says, laughing. Today, Adebule is no longer an anomaly but, rather, part of a growing number of Black Americans offering traditional and innovative experiences with Black-created art in Central Florida. In West Oaks Mall, a shop called Evelyn’s Creations boasts a sizable collection of African American art, jewelry and clothing. Bronze Kingdom, located in Fashion Square Mall, calls its gallery “Orlando’s best kept secret,” with more than 2,000 bronze pieces from throughout the continent on display, along with paintings and sculptures from Orlando-based artists. Rawlvan Bennett, owner of Bronze Kingdom, made a calculated decision to open his gallery in Orlando. He began amassing a collection of more than 4,000

signature African bronze pieces 40 years ago. “I was looking for a way to connect to my African heritage,” he tells me during an interview one afternoon at his 16,000-square-foot gallery in the Fashion
Square Mall. He remembers picking up his first mask at a fair in Los Angeles and, slowly, building up his collection with the intent to bring others closer to their heritage through art viewing and buying. “I figured that a lot of other African Americans would want to do the same thing,” he says. “That they wanted that reconnection.” Bennett began traveling to Africa in 2000 and eventually settled in Johannesburg for seven years, where his software technology company is headquartered. But for him, Orlando represented a smart base for his collection, whose pieces range from $200 to more than $1 million. “The world comes to Orlando,” he says. “I wanted to be in a place where I could get these wonderful artifacts seen.” Similar to Three Masks, Bronze Kingdom hosts cultural events. Bennett offers tours rooted in the history of cross-continental forced migration and settlement. But Bennett wants to make the commercial gallery into a heritage attraction. He and his team are planning an $8 million expansion project, which would include moving the collection to a 50,000-square-foot space on International Drive.

arlier this month, the Mercury Collective, a production and advocacy hub for creatives, hosted Indigenous Futurism, an exhibition and performance, in partnership with the Orlando Museum of Art’s First Thursdays events. The theme paid homage to the African origins of human existence, forcing a dialogue that understands and acknowledges the universality of Blackness. The evening featured painting, sculptures and multimedia works from artists across ethnicities and performers in African-rooted body art. A group of traditional African drummers also performed alongside producers with MPC beat machines. “Orlando is a melting pot,” says Mercury Collective director Jamal Ward, who proposed the theme to the Orlando Museum of Art. “I’m just trying to stir the pot.” Ward came to Orlando from Philadelphia in 2012. He observed an overall arts scene that was ill-equipped, reluctant or outright opposed to nurturing talent. “When I got here there just wasn’t enough next-level developmental platforms for the artists,” he says, noting that there could be possibility for the community through the mere presence of reputable arts institutions, like Full Sail CONTINUED ON PAGE 17

University. “We’ve got about 30, 40, 50 years of that type of cultivation already happening. And sometimes people don’t really know where they are.” In 2015, Ward began working on a musical project with Indigo Blak, a producer originally from Decatur, Illinois, who had moved to Orlando to attend Full Sail University. The project, called the Mercury Collective, featured collaborations between musicians, writers, and visual artists which birthed what Ward described as “soul-rooted relationships with creatives.” “There were a lot of conversations that took place in between the recording sessions,” Ward says. “A lot of sharing and building and talking about what we need in the community. And it just evolved into this network of creatives building with each other.” The Mercury Collective has been driving change within Orlando’s African American arts community and, more largely, the city’s overall scene. Every third Thursday, the group partners with Orlando Game Space to bring artists and game developers together. The Collective also hosts
an improvisational jam session called Kumbuka, which means “remember” in Kiswahili, at the Wells’ Built Museum in Parramore. The idea is to connect art, music, and history in one of the only remaining historical institutions within Orlando’s African-American community. Dr. Williams Monroe Wells built the hotel during the segregation era as a hotel and entertainment venue for African Americans visiting Orlando. Since 2000, the space has served as a museum, housing artifacts from the Civil Rights movement. For Elizabeth Thompson, executive director of the museum, the Collective’s arts events breathe life into the space and revive the memories of the Black men and women who helped shape Orlando’s history, even as rapid development gentrifies the African American-settled areas in which this work was done. “You have to reconcile with the fact that this community was part of the foundation of Orlando before Mickey Mouse came,” says Thompson. “You have to understand that this building in the heart of what was the African-American community was a cornerstone and a springboard to Orlando and we need to know that. We need to know that Orlando is more than theme
parks,” she says. Thompson says she hopes to see more Black-owned arts institutions start up, places like the former Montsho Books, on West Central Boulevard, which functioned as the community’s bookstore. Retired African American teacher Jackie Perkins opened the shop in 1990, welcoming nationally and locally recognized artists and scholars. Elizabeth Thompson remembers being part of the Brain Bowl trivia team as a child. But the store closed in 2005 after losing the battle, along with other independent bookstores, to national chains. The Zora Neale Hurston Festival of the Arts and Humanities, which launched the same year as Montsho Books, is the only entity from that era with the same mission. The Zora Festival, now 29 years old, has hosted Ruby Dee, Ossie Davis, Alice Walker and Henry Louis Gates. Organizer NY Nathiri recalls the process being relatively simple because Eatonville, where the festival is hosted, had what she calls “a cultural product.” “You would have to be really incompetent not to have been able to make [it] a success,” she says. “I mean, you’ve got Zora Neale Hurston – even though orlandoweekly.com

people in Orange County hadn’t heard of her, that’s not the point. Others had heard of her, and they knew about Eatonville as a literary destination and the woman, she is a strong literary voice.” The festival, Nathiri says, received institutional support and benefited from coordination based on a collective vision. That’s one element that needs strengthening, according to Barbara Chandler, manager of the Hannibal Square Heritage Center in Winter Park. The center, founded in 2007 as the cultural arm of the Crealdé School of Art, is devoted to telling the stories of the African American community that once thrived there. Chandler is one of the few Black arts administrators in central Florida. Lack of representation within white-owned gallery spaces, white-operated museums and arts organizations, she says, is a key reason why Orlando’s Black arts scene has not thrived in past years. “If the curator does not look like the artists, if the curator is not versed in Black history or Black culture, not connected to the Black community,” says Chandler, “the art can get very diluted and become very theory-driven.” Chandler came onto the arts scene in 2007 through Crealdé School of Art. She began volunteering at the Heritage Center and helped launch the Hannibal Square Folk and Urban Festival in 2009, noting a need for more venues for Black artists to showcase their work. But now, she says, there’s much more fervor around Black artists creating their own institutions. “African-American artists are saying ‘To hell with it. We gon’ make a space for ourselves,’” she says. “‘We don’t need your consent. Give us a building and we can come and set up shop.’” Last year, Ward became a member of the Orlando Museum of Art’s Associates Executive Committee as a way to bring Black creatives’ voices into a space that CONTINUED ON PAGE 19

represented what he felt was credibility, but needed more inclusion. “Sometimes when you deal with white entities or white institutions, white ownership,” he says, “maybe they’re not being racist driven. Maybe they’re just not understanding. You know, that could be [the] case. That could be part of what it is, right? Whatever it is, it’s a problem.” He noted that there are many people inside the museum and other spaces who want Black artists to be there. Meanwhile, some local artists are pushing to create even more Black-owned spaces. Orlandoborn artist Adekunle Babatunde wants a Black cultural center for youth in the community. “There’s so much talent right in the neighborhood,” he says. “Plenty, plenty talent. They don’t have nowhere to really go and let out all this energy. We need more than basketball courts and football.” Funding remains a challenge, though, even for established institutions like the Wells’ Built. Thompson says she finds that there are strong organizations bringing valuable arts services to the community,
“You have to reconcile with the fact that this community was part of the foundation of Orlando before Mickey Mouse came.” —Elizabeth Thompson, Wells’ Built Museum executive director
but they aren’t receiving the sizable grants that white institutions are. Still, she says, the burgeoning creative class, which is all about collaboration, could really reinvigorate the arts scene. That was the driver for building a successful Zora Festival, which made Central Florida a premier arts destination for decades, with visits and support from residents and tourists, Black and nonBlack. It’s all about working together, says Nathiri. And making real magic. “The arts and humanities, if they are true to excellence, they are going to be accessible and have a universal appeal because it’s about that which is essentially human,” she says firmly. Back at Three Masks, Adebule says he has already felt a shift as he transforms his commercial gallery into a community space. “It’s lit a fire under me,” he says. “That I should do even much better and come up with newer things.” Rather than collecting African art, he’s collecting a group of Orlando residents and taking them to Africa – Nigeria – next year. arts@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

BY SETH KUBERSKY Two key Loch Haven arts institutions recently made major announcements regarding important leadership positions. Orlando Repertory Theatre has appointed Chris Brown as its new executive director, replacing the retiring Gene Columbus. Brown, a graduate of UCF and Yale, previously served as the Rep’s production manager and general manager. And Orlando Shakes’ longtime managing director, P.J. Albert, has handed in his resignation after 18 years with the company. Douglas Love-Ramos – who has produced educational programming for Walden Family Playhouse, Disney Channel, World Book Encyclopedia and Miami’s Arsht Center – has been hired to succeed him.
The Orlando Philharmonic recently appointed David Hyslop, a veteran of the St. Louis and Oregon Symphony, as interim executive director while a new full-time executive director is sought. Last month, the Philharmonic launched the Crescendo Society, which has raised $840,000 toward supporting the orchestra’s move into the Dr. Phillips Center’s Steinmetz Hall in 2020. Music director Eric Jacobson kicks off the Philharmonic’s final season at the Bob Carr on Sept. 28 by leading acclaimed saxophonist Branford Marsalis though Jacques Ibert’s “Concertino da camera.”
Central Florida Community Arts has released their 2019-2020 season lineup. The theatrical offerings start in August with a special sitespecific run of Twelve Angry Jurors presented in the Orange County History Center’s courtroom. The CFCArts Theatre season continues with Next to Normal, Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street and A Christmas Story for the holidays. The season concludes next spring with James Goldman’s The Lion in Winter and Donald Rupe’s Pulse musical From Here, which was seen at last month’s Orlando Fringe Festival.

Could any theme park ride really be worth waiting half a day or more for? Yes, and here are some tips to cut down on the pain Universal Express passes aren’t accepted yet) but these tips will help cut down on the pain.
1. ARRIVE EARLY. NO, EVEN EARLIER.
HARRY POTTER TALENT & GUESTS RIDE HAGRID’S MAGICAL CREATURES MOTORBIKE ADVENTURE | PHOTO COURTESY UNIVERSAL STUDIOS
Back in ancient times – say, the 1990s – if you
times to settle down to around an hour after the attraction’s novelty wears off and the operations team increases the hourly throughput, but at least for this summer, you can count on spending a minimum of two to three hours waiting if you want to learn about the care and feeding of blast-ended skrewts. So, could any theme park ride really be worth waiting half a day or more for? If you’re in the park on a one-day ticket, the answer is likely no, even for the most hard-core Potter-heads. However, as a local annual passholder, I’ll admit that this attraction comes as close to being “worth” such insane wait times as W AR any I’ve ever experienced. With a top W speed of 50 miles per hour and no loops, Hagrid’s adventure isn’t so extreme that it will scare off tweens and grandparents, but don’t underestimate its twisty turns: With more launches than any coaster on earth and the longest track in Florida, it’s already liberated more than a few lunches. Better yet, the ride is populated with detailed sets, Easter egg props and lifelike animatronics – all without a pair of 3-D glasses in sight. Its combination of the best elements of Expeditions Everest, Slinky Dog Dash and Revenge of the Mummy made Hagrid’s Magical Creatures instantly land a spot on my personal all-time Top 5 list alongside SpiderMan and the Haunted Mansion, and that’s after only one ride-through. Even so, I can advise anyone planning to endure through the humid hell for themselves, there’s a better way. Only a pricey VIP tour can cut you to the front of the line (even K IC

wanted to see a blockbuster movie on opening day or be the first on your block with a hot new toy, you simply had to stand in line. In today’s era of on-demand streaming, advance seat reservations and one-hour delivery, the idea of wasting time in a physical queue seems increasingly absurd. But last week, Universal Orlando demonstrated that people are still willing to trade hours of their life in exchange for magical thrills – at least as long as a certain Wizarding World is involved. Unless you’ve been hiding inside the Chamber of Secrets, you’ve probably heard about the June 13 grand opening of Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure, the latest addition to Islands of Adventure’s nineyear old Harry Potter-themed area. The new indoor/ outdoor “story coaster,” which replaced the Dragon Challenge inverted roller coasters, made national news last Thursday for the 600-minute-long line of fans that snaked all the way through Lost Continent and Seuss Landing to the park’s entrance. Of course, I was right there in the middle of that mishigas, and although I didn’t endure the full 10 hours, I did end up investing nearly seven and a half hours for my high-velocity visit to the Forbidden Forest. In the days since its debut, demand for Hagrid’s has hardly dampened, with estimated wait times regularly reaching 300 minutes, forcing the queue to shutter for capacity hours before park closing. Much like its predecessors Forbidden Journey and Escape from Gringotts, I expect off-peak wait
On opening day, I foolishly thought arriving two and a half hours before the park was scheduled to open would be sufficient, and found myself at the end of a very long queue when I entered the park shortly before 6:30 a.m. My friends who arrived an hour earlier appeared on the Today Show and were off the ride by 10 a.m., while I didn’t get my turn until shortly before 2 p.m. If you’re going to wait anyway, might as well do it before it gets hot.
2. STAY HYDRATED
Universal did a great job of supplying guests with cold water while we waited, as well as using a DJ and costumed character to entertain the crowd. They also sell snacks and beer, but that could end badly once you hit the turns.
3. BRING AN UMBRELLA
Chances are it will rain at least once, and bad weather is this ride’s Achilles’ heel: One bolt of lightning within five miles of the park will shut it down, and it can take an hour of inspection before restarting.
4. TEST-DRIVE THE SEAT
Like Forbidden Journey and Gringotts, this ride’s unique vehicles may be unfriendly for taller and larger guests; Hagrid himself couldn’t fit. The motorcycle seat sits higher and provides more freedom of movement; the sidecar is lower and closer to the creatures but a bit cramped. Test them both outside the entrance before investing hours in wait.
5. BEWARE OF SINGLE RIDER
I made a tactical error and opted for the Single Rider queue, which skips the preshow (another Musion hologram, this time featuring Robbie Coltrane as Hagrid and Mark Williams as Arthur Weasley) and the Easter egg-filled queue. That sacrifice saved me less than an hour, and I wish I’d stuck it out in standby.
6. WAIT FOR THE VIRTUAL LINE
Universal says they’ll offer a Virtual Line through their smartphone app, which will let guests wander the rest of the park until appointed time. You’ll still have an hour-plus wait upon returning, but it’s better than standing still all day. Unfortunately, at press time the system still hadn’t been implemented. You can save a bit of pain by waiting until it is.

SETTE-LING DOWN In Sette, Va and Trina Gregory-Propst have themselves a mainstay in the making
risotto ($23) whipped up by Nonna – the bespectacled, red-aproned goddess of overfeeding, flabby arms and backhanded compliments – materialized from above. Or so it seemed. Oh, we didn’t finish the risotto either, but microwaved offerings were served to giddy adult children of Italian grandmothers the following day. From the stack of platters on our table, there was just one dish that failed to rouse. “The salad was just OK,” said my guest. She was referring to the “cucina” ($9), a dense pyramid of romaine studded with cukes, tomato, goat cheese, pine nuts and garlic-Parmesan croutons. It’s slicked in a Dijon vinaigrette and, on paper, this should be a killer salad, but the flavors just didn’t mesh. I’d say it was the vinaigrette, but I know that dressing has a loyal following, so what do I know. And by now you’ve likely sensed that portions here are large, so don’t be alarmed by the large-format beers by Italian craft brewer 32, or the big-as-your-head desserts bearing all the hallmarks of the Se7en Bites imprint. If there ever were an exercise in futility, it would be trying to determine the more gratifying ending – a hefty slab of lemon cake ($11) or the tiramisu semifreddo ($11). Many would say neither and opt for a plate of amaretto cookies and milk ($9) instead. My advice: Take a chance. It’ll more than likely pay off. It’s what the Propsts did, after all. They rolled the dice in opening a restaurant at this once ill-fated locale and, clearly, the gamble paid off. In Sette, they came up sevens. [Editor’s note: Just before press time, the owners announced Sette will close briefly for a staff retreat, reopening June 26.] fkara@orlandoweekly.com

ette, the buzzy Ivanhoe Village restaurant by Se7en Bites owners Va and Trina Gregory-Propst, may draw inspiration from Italy’s food culture, but it’s got a Brooklyn spirit at its core. The Propsts, you see, eloped in New York City back in the summer of 2013, then made their way across the Williamsburg Bridge to enjoy a wedding-day dinner inside the comfy confines of the D.O.C. Wine Bar. “We talked that night about one day having a restaurant just like that,” says Trina, and just three months after opening in a space that’s seen the ghosts of Brian’s Restaurant wage war on any new occupant, Sette appears poised to become a neighborhood fixture. No, it may not specialize in Sardinian fare, nor employ D.O.C.’s moody grotto aesthetic, but, like that Brooklyn boîte, the food is all about homespun rusticity and most of it proves irresistible. You’ve doubtless heard about the scratch pasta Va so joyfully extrudes every day – up to 100 pounds of it, she says – and you’d be doing yourself a solid by throwing your face into the lasagna ($23) formed from one long noodle, or letting ribbons of wild mushroom pappardelle ($25) lap your chin with dribbles of umami – it’s the only way to do these dishes justice.
My dining comrade, a classy dame who won the opportunity of eating with yours truly in a charity auction supporting A Gift for Teaching, ravaged the pappardelle in impressive fashion, pistachios, Calabrian chilies and all. “I’d come back just for that,” she calmly stated, then, more excitedly, added, “and that!” She was pointing to a bowl in which one gorgonzola- and fig-stuffed arancini ($11) remained, along with a pancetta crumble and a drizzle of pesto cream. We looked at each other and did the dance of polite silence. You eat it. No, you eat it. No, you. No, you! Hmm, maybe I should eat it. Nah, maybe I shouldn’t. In the end, we got the orb packed up for takeout. Don’t make the same mistake, dear reader. If there’s one rice ball left, somebody eat the damn thing! We didn’t quite polish off the sweet-andmeaty assemblage of sausage, fennel and blistered grapes ($11), either, but not out of some protocol of courtesy. No, our eyes were diverted from the Umbrian dish after a “pot roast” orlandoweekly.com

The plant-based cuisine has a tonier touch than the Colonialtown eatery, but dishes like spicy makhani curry, beet tartare and chickpea fries prove equally gratifying.

Publix Aprons’ Bite30 is Much More Than a Meal For $30, you can enjoy a three course-meal and wine pairings at Publix Aprons Cooking School’s Bite30 demos, but the cooking techniques you’ll learn there are priceless.
Whether you’re new to cooking or trying to master the craft, Publix’s Aprons Cooking School offers valuable experiences for chefs of every level. Through Publix’s classes you can work alongside expert chefs with years of industry experience to learn how to create some tasty dishes. Or you can take a more relaxed approach by sitting in on one of their cooking demos, which allow you watch Publix’s chefs prepare a meal for you and your classmates. Trent Walker, who has been cooking professionally for 11 years, is one of the chefs you’ll meet at the Publix Aprons’ Winter Park location.. Recently he’s helped develop some of the recipes featured at Publix’s Bite30 classes throughout June. These demos feature a specially crafted three course-meal paired with Imagery wines for $30. “I don’t want anyone to leave here and think we only taught them a recipe,” Walker says. “We want to emphasize teaching you techniques. Once you have the techniques behind a recipe down, you can be inventive with recipes to find what really works for your palate.” So when it comes to technique, which ones can be the most useful for upgrading your culinary expertise? Walker says two that aren’t emphasized enough are braising and confitting. Both methods involve low and slow cooking, but to confit something typically means to do so it in its own fat. At Publix’s Bite30 classes, you can learn how to make creole surf and turf confit chicken quarters with shrimp sauce, pecans and parmesan risotto. While this method typically focuses on protein, Walker says you can use oil or butter to confit produce like tomatoes or grapes. Braising on the other hand involves lightly frying something to then let it stew in a tight container for a long period of time. Using a deep cooking vessel you can brown seafood or tough cuts of meat on the stovetop before moving it to the oven to finish cooking. Knowing how to deglaze a pan is another important skill Walker emphasizes.
CHEF TRENT WALKER, WINTER PARK

“After you sear a lovely piece of protein you always make a sauce out of it,” says Walker. It’s almost a sin to take that pan that has those
wonderful brown bits in the bottom of it and just throw it in the sink.” Instead, Walker says you should start scrapping the brown bits while adding in some liquid like vinegar or alcohol, aromats such as garlic or shallots, and cook until its reduced to about half the amount you started with and appears set. You’ll know a sauce is set once it appears almost dry. To finish, slowly melt a pat of butter to emulsify your sauce. Another technique Walker says can really help you create a great sauce is making a slurry, which is a mixture of equal parts cornstarch and water. Slurries can be useful for adding more body to thinner vinaigrettes, pan drippings and other liquids. “When you’re making a slurry you want to use your fingers to stir the water and cornstarch together to make sure it’s fully dissolved,” Walker says. “If you don’t you’ll end up with a chunk of cornstarch that’ll just steam and turn into a dumpling when added to a sauce – and that isn’t tasty.” Learning to perfect these skills ultimately takes time and practice, but Walker says if you ever have any questions on these and other techniques the chefs at Publix’s cooking school are always willing to help.

Toy Story 4
TOYRIFIC Toy Story 4 is a worthy sequel BY C AMERON MEIE R
F
or adults, childhood toys are as much a state of mind as physical playthings. Some of us relegated ours to the cupboard while others gave them away, but they still occupy a primal place in our minds. Disney and Pixar understand that more completely than one would expect from big-studio moviemakers. In fact, in the first three films of the Toy Story series (which began with the groundbreaking original back in 1995) they seemed to toy – pun intended – with us on a psychological, almost spiritual, level. Nevertheless, the big question surrounding Toy Story 4 was whether the new film, like our own toys from a nearly forgotten time, would still conjure the requisite emotions. It does. Indeed, new director Josh Cooley – working from a script by Andrew Stanton and Stephany Folsom, and a story from a host of Pixar veterans, including company founder and Toy Story creator John Lasseter – has delivered the sequel we didn’t realize we needed. Admittedly, it doesn’t feel as instantly necessary as the first and third films, and might fall just below all three previous editions if one had to rank them for quality,
but it comes close. And in this era of endless sequels, reboots and remakes, that’s more than we could have hoped for – and good enough to make Toy Story 4 the best family film of the year. When we left Woody (Tom Hanks), Buzz Lightyear (Tim Allen) and the gang at the end of Toy Story 3 in 2010, Andy had just left for college and given his prize possessions to lovable little Bonnie (Madeleine McGraw). But a deeper dive reveals a Woody still haunted by the loss of not just Andy, but his old crush Bo Peep (Annie Potts), who was given away years earlier. To make matters worse, Bonnie now prefers her other toys, relegating Woody to second-tier status and promoting Jessie (Joan Cusack) to sheriff. But loyalty and love matter to Woody, so when a new toy comes along in the form of a spork with pipe-cleaner arms and Popsicle legs, Woody embraces him because he sees just how much “Forky” means to Bonnie. Never mind that Forky (Tony Hale) is having an existential, runcible crisis and views himself as trash, a metaphor that is nicely explored in a new song by Randy Newman, “I Can’t Let You Throw Yourself Away.” To Bonnie, he’s important, and that

TOY STORY 4 Opens Friday, June 21
HHHHH means the world to Woody, who is forced to play the hero yet again when the family goes on a road trip and Forky bolts. Using startlingly realistic animation and imaginative scenarios, the filmmakers have welcomed us back into one of our favorite cinematic universes, one filled with warmth, humor and melancholy. Even better, we’re treated to an array of new characters (probably too many), including a ghoulish group of ventriloquist dummies, an underconfident stunt-motorcycle racer (Keanu Reeves) and an overbearing (again, pun intended) duo of stuffed carnival animals (Jordan Peele and Keegan-Michael Key). But it’s an emotionally scarred antique doll (Christina Hendricks) who steals the show, thanks to her unwavering quest to repair her broken voice box and finally experience something she’s never known: the love of a child. I don’t know what you’re going to do after you see the movie, but this 46-year-old plans to return home, take his toys out of the closet and treat them to some long-overdue playtime. feedback@orlandoweekly.com

Aubrey Plaza and Gabriel Bateman in Child’s Play PHOTO COURTESY OF UNITED ARTISTS RELEASING
BY STEVE SCHNEIDER
OPENING THIS WEEK: Anna All these years later, it’s almost endearing that Luc Besson is still fixated on turning ingenues into femmes fatale by equipping them with a black dress and a big gun. This year’s model – literally – is Russian supermodel Sasha Luss, cast in her first international leading role as a woman of mystery who gets crafted into an elite assassin. Among her mentors is Helen Mirren – although the latter doesn’t get nearly as much play in the advance promo as do the lingering shots of nubile nookie and wallto-wall ball stomp. Hey, Besson knows his audience. Or maybe he just knows himself and is counting on you not to have changed a bit either. Although I’m kind of hoping for a timely sequence in which the title character infiltrates the organization of one of her marks by trying to set up a meeting about Russian adoptions. It’s the perfect cover, because you don’t have to tell anyone! (R) Child’s Play I can’t decide if those teaser posters of Chucky eviscerating various characters from the Toy Story mythos constitute supreme shade or plain old poor sportsmanship. I guess a guy has to do what he has to do when he’s going up against Woody and his pals (see our Toy Story 4 review on page 33) and has Annabelle breathing down his neck (her next flick drops in just a week). And when you think about it, Chucky was owned by a kid named Andy before Buzz Lightyear had ever thought of the idea, so there’s a certain amount of
bragging rights at stake here. Still, maybe trumped-up external conflicts aren’t really what this remake/ reboot needs right now, given that franchise creator Don Mancini and his team are still hawking the original formula on the small screen and elsewhere. There’s no love lost between them and the bunch who made this new Child’s Play, which gives us Mark Hamill in place of Brad Dourif as the voice of the iconic killer doll – here reimagined as not the vessel of a malign spirit but rather a high-tech plaything that attains sentience. And in a movie like this, “sentience” equals “unchecked bloodlust.” Meanwhile, the role of Andy’s mom is now filled by Aubrey Plaza, who one would assume could lay waste to any lethal toy with a well-timed eyeroll. But these screenwriters always seem to ignore the obvious. (R)
ALSO PLAYING: 5B By definition, one of our nation’s hospital AIDS wards had to be the very first, and this documentary profiles the people of the San Francisco facility that bravely shouldered that mantle back when the disease was the impetus for much paranoia and misinformation. The doc opened across the country last week in tandem with Pride Week celebrations in major communities, but this is the first you’re learning of its low-visibility booking here, dear reader. I guess because you let your own community move its Pride Week to October. Now don’t you feel silly? (NR; playing at Regal Winter Park Village & RPX) orlandoweekly.com

OUT OF STEP Californian band Fury push hardcore into the future BY MADELEINE SCOTT
H
ardcore is nothing if not anachronistic. To be interested in the genre – to participate in its inherent subcultural-ness – is to not only yearn for the past but to try and make it tangible. A hardcore show in 2019 is an attempt to re-create something that’s come and gone: to dress and to dance and even to feel like maybe They (our once-teenaged forefathers, of the Rollins and Mackaye and Cappo variety) really did. And it is true that, in this way, those acts which burn brightest and fastest often directly mirror (read: rip off ) that which has already happened. It’s relatively easy to gain success when you bill your band according to your influences: “FFO x and y bands,” “sounds like x band meets y band” … you get it. But for those contemporary bands who wish to stick it out past that flash-inthe-pan “here’s a demo that sounds like Breakdown!” popularity: They have to figure out what to do next.
In the past few years, the solution has typically taken the form of signing to a major label, or at least one that doesn’t exclusively release hardcore. Epitaph is a good bet, maybe Roadrunner. And with their release on this larger platform, the band in question will inevitably introduce some sort of “accessible” element: they’ll position themselves for metalhead appeal, they’ll force us into the unenviable position of considering a nu-metal revival and the musical legacy of Limp Bizkit. So what’s a band like Fury to do? Fury, the quintet from the other Orange County, the one on the West Coast, started off according to the pattern: Here’s a new band, ’80s Southern California hardcore meets youth crew! Uniform Choice, but also Turning Point! This Fury was meant to be something fun, something not quite built to last – a project vocalist Jeremy Stith was initially hesitant to even sign on for. “The way [Madison Woodward, lead guitarist] convinced me,” says Stith, “was
we would maybe play two shows tops. It was mainly just a recording project.” He laughs: “That just kinda snowballed into what it is now.” What it is now: After that 2014 demo, Fury “just kind of started doing [their] own thing.” First a 7-inch on Triple B, and then in 2016, Fury released their debut LP, Paramount. Paramount, the summit, where heaven meets earth; Paramount, a band at their very peak. The record is what you might call a hardcore epic, an attempt at addressing Big, Wandering Questions (those of the meaning and existence variety) in the context of a genre best known for variations on the lyrical theme of “pissed-off guy.” That’s not to trivialize seminal hardcore lyrics, or to deny that some real soul-searching took place in ’80s and ’90s hardcore, but to say that hardcore en masse is largely concerned with the rather … practical. Paramount, then, in opposition, tries to get at something almost immaterial – see, for example, the sheer religiosity and whole-body catharsis of album closer “The Feeling.” And the angels did indeed descend to herald Paramount’s greatness: Almost immediately, the record was heaped with praise, deemed sui generis, called “important” and “life-changing,” – maybe even one of the classics of Our Era! So by the time it had been decided that Fury would release a follow-up, Stith’s mind was set: “I was gonna do the yin and yang to that with this new one. I kind of wanted to cut people off at the cross. I’m not trying to make another ‘important’ thing: I already know I’ve failed.” And something else, something key: “I was trying to find a way to be vulnerable and make something beautiful and make something that’ll last … longer than I’ll be around, but in this very ugly world of hardcore.” This is Failed Entertainment, Fury’s sophomore effort and first release on Warner-distributed label Run for Cover Records. And in Fury’s case, the new ingredient they’ve added to their major label debut isn’t a spice pulled off the shelf of hardcore history. Instead, the somethingelse is culture, allusion, what the eggheaded among us might call “intertextuality.” Where previous releases have drawn
from literature, film, art and music outside the hardcore canon – culminating in Paramount’s borrowing of the phrase “a love supreme” – on Failed Entertainment, Stith is practically begging the listener to sign up for a Criterion account just to follow along. Failed Entertainment draws from David Foster Wallace, Raging Bull, Gang of Four, Boogie Nights … and that’s just the title. Songs leap from reference to reference, weaving together something like a young life’s worth of ingested media: Oasis, Paul Thomas Anderson, Embrace and Fugazi, Sam Shepard, Nick Cave, Crazy Horse. Watching over it all are the dark-coated angels of Wim Wenders’ Wings of Desire, invoked almost literally on opening track “Angels Over Berlin.” A hardcore record that unabashedly proclaims its love for a semi-obscure 1987 arthouse film to the point, indeed, of the loving homage “Angels Over Berlin” music video, starring downtown Orlando as Berlin-by-proxy and directed by UCF student Mario Escoto: Is this bloated overintellectualizing? Is it sucking the fun out of hardcore? Is it just an attempt to get the kids to read and watch and listen more? Stith gets how it all can come across. “My last intention,” he says, “was to be cool guy, look at all this avant-garde stuff, hee hee hee, aren’t I so fucking smart?” He’s impassioned, almost earnest, when he says that these references – the bricolage of Failed Entertainment – “are the things that changed me, and things that I really, really love. … I don’t have the answers, I can only try to be as good of a person as I can every day, and these are the things that have helped me do it.” Failed Entertainment isn’t jaded or cynical. It doesn’t try to be anything it’s not. It knows it’s a hardcore record, it knows it doesn’t have the answers, it knows that it will never puzzle-piece match the expectations you may or may not have set before listening. With Failed Entertainment, Fury establish themselves as a band comfortable in nebulous gray areas, up for the challenge of treading territory in which there’s really no precedent. And maybe – just maybe – this is how hardcore stops reaching for its past, and begins to carve out a future. music@orlandoweekly.com

Second Harvest Food Bank hosts the 2019 iteration of their Dining in the Dark, an in-the-dark immersive dining experience. It’s meant to bring awareness to those suffering from vision loss and from chronic hunger. The dinner will feature multiple courses prepared by professional gourmet chefs and served by the City of Orlando Police Department’s SWAT unit – who work their way around the pitch-black dining room in night-vision goggles. After the meal, the lights come back on and attendees can hear and share testimonials about their pitch-black dining experience. – Christian Casale
Prepare yourself for the City Beautiful’s premier all-inclusive food tasting experience, featuring some of the city’s top chefs from its best restaurants, as much free beer and wine as your hearts may desire, and live entertainment. Included among the restaurants at this year’s event are Terralina, Orlando Meats, Padlefish, Susuru, Bulla Gastrobar, Chroma and many more. And, not to turn a happy occasion into a bidding of farewells, but prepare to say so long and goodbye to the Orchid Garden and Ballroom, as this will be Orlando Weekly’s last chance to throw an event there before it’s torn down later this year. – Xander Peters

Jon Bellion MUSIC
PHOTO BY RYAN JAY
Jon Bellion returns to Orlando, touring behind his second studio album, Glory Sound Prep. Known as a fast rising hip-hop star, Bellion combines funk jams, electric pop and R&B into 10 intriguingly personal songs on the album, released in November 2018. Bellion opens up his heart about love and commitment on hit single “Conversations with My Wife,” questions the validity of his aspirations in “Stupid Deep,” and traverses three different instruments in trailblazing rap “Adult Swim.” The album also features electrifying collaborations with Roc Marciano, RZA, B. Keyz, Travis Mendes, Tuamie and Quincy Jones. With opener Marc E. Bassy, a rap and R&B artist known for his hit single featuring G-Eazy, “Love Her Too,” the show is one not to be missed. – Annabelle Sikes 7 p.m. | Addition Financial Arena, 12777 Gemini Blvd. | 407-823-3070 | additionfiarena. com | $29-$70

OUR PICKS FOR THE BEST EVENTS THIS WEEK
Orlando garage-punk godfathers the Golden Pelicans aren’t quite as active as they used to be, so when they do convene these days, they make it count in short-but-sweet bouts of touring that might take them up and down the East Coast, see them playing a live session on famed indie radio station WFMU in New Jersey, or even a punk fest in Puerto Rico. And even with drummer Rich Evans increasingly occupied by running Total Punk and the Mayhem on Mills wrestling fed, the band recently found time to lay down a mess of trashy tunes for heavyweight label 12XU – also home to Obnox and former locals Chronophage – run by former Matador Records guiding light Gerald Cosloy. Level up. The resulting album, which dropped earlier this month, Grinding for Gruel, shows the band in damn fine AC/DC-esque form, tossing out sodden, fatalistic anthems one after the other. Saturday sees the release party for both the Pelicans platter and a self-titled 7-inch from Gainesville opener the Curleys, out on Total Punk. – Matthew Moyer

Space Camp MUSIC
DIY value delivers! On Saturday, not only do you get headliners Space Camp – a furiously loud and eccentric duo that create an angular whirlwind of outsider heaviness – but joining them in the intimate confines of Uncle Lou’s are the brightest lights in North and Central Floridian cyber-punk (and no, we’re not talking about the Billy Idol album or goofy Metropolis Records no-hopers). In their own distinct ways, Devo-gone-mad Channel 83, Gainesville hyperspace-engine PeZ and forever-alien hacker/ grinders C0mputer all craft upgraded punk music with a distinct – and dystopian – eye towards the future. Death to nostalgia! Year zero is here! – MM with C0mputer, Channel 83, PeZ | 9 p.m. | Uncle Lou’s Entertainment Hall, 1016 N. Mills Ave. | 407-898-0009 | $6.66

Jeremy Piven COMEDY
You probably know Jeremy Piven from his career-defining role as the foul-mouthed power broker Ari Gold from HBO’s Entourage, for which he won three Emmys and a Golden Globe. But what you might not remember – and we have to admit that we didn’t until we did a modicum of research before writing this blurb – was that Piven was accused in 2017 by eight different women of inappropriate behavior in incidents spanning decades. Piven’s defense was to voluntarily take a polygraph test – a notoriously inaccurate method of determining whether or not someone is telling the truth – and claim that the women were after fame or money, though none of them seem to have sought either. Piven stops into the Orlando Improv this weekend for a one-night engagement on something of a career rehabilitation tour, though whether or not he deserves that chance is really up to you. – Thaddeus McCollum 7 & 9:30 p.m. | Orlando Improv, 9101 International Drive | 407-480-5233 | theimprovorlando.com | $30-$60

Screw the System The Macallan Dinner Christner’s Prime Steak & Lobster – hands-down the nicest restaurant on Lee Road (sorry, Bubbalou’s) – is partnering with top-shelf scotch distillers Macallan for a special dinner this week. Enjoy four courses – including a USDA Prime ribeye – paired with four varieties of Macallan scotch. A couple of those scotches go for upward of $300 a bottle, making the steep price tag of this dinner something of a bargain, we guess. But then, if you’re able to drop that much on a dinner – or a bottle of booze – why are you reading about it in a free paper, you cheapskate? 7 p.m. Friday; Christner’s Prime Steak & Lobster, 729 Lee Road; $145; christnersprimesteakandlobster.com.

If the sun gets to be too much for you – and after that much rum, it just might – spring for the upgrade to the Red Stripe Terrace early. For an extra $15, you get access to the shade and air conditioning of the Monkey Bar, along with complimentary Red Stripe and light snacks. 5-9 p.m. Saturday; Wall Street Plaza, 25 Wall St.; $20-$40; wallstplaza.net.

This weekend, McCoy records two new episodes in front of a live audience at the Milk District’s Bull & Bush. The first guests are a closely kept mystery, but McCoy claims that you won’t want to miss their Florida stories. The second show features an indepth conversation with Big Tim Murphy – and if you’ve ever heard Murphy talk about his family, you know there will be some bizarre stories told. 6:30 p.m. Saturday; Bull & Bush, 2408 E. Robinson St.; $15; totswithross.libsyn.com.
Screw the System Hey, you watch porn, right? Sure, we all do. But have you ever thought about porn’s relationship to basically every new technology that humanity comes up with? Johannes Grenzfurthner, an Austrian artist and filmmaker, stops into the Nook this week to give an entertaining lecture on porn’s feedback with the society in which it exists and how to use that to subvert oppressive gender and sexuality frameworks. Plus, at the end, he’s going to screen some of the best shorts from this year’s Porn Film Festival Vienna to provide some eyeson examples of just how to do that. Probably not the best night to stop into the Nook if you’ve got hangups about wee-wees and hoo-has. 7 p.m. Saturday; The Nook on Robinson, 2432 E. Robinson St.; free; facebook.com/thenookonrobinson.

David J MUSIC
Inscrutable behind dark shades, David J always seemed the most vaguely sinister and enigmatic of his Bauhaus peers but though he did – unwittingly or not – help invent gothic music with Bauhaus, his career is the very definition of a renaissance man with a taste for the dark side. Musically, the bassist and singer has done it all: played as a founding member of dark-rock innovators Love and Rockets, moonlit in the Jazz Butcher, engaged in Residents-gone-slapstick art-pop with the Bubblemen, and recorded several live magick rituals with comics legend Alan Moore (because why the hell not?). J has even tried his hand at a solo career that bestowed upon us the bleak pop majesty of “Candy on the Cross,” or the recent, biting “Thoughts and Prayers.” Most recently, David J helped salvage tourmate and Bauhaus brother Peter Murphy’s second Orlando cancellation with an impromptu set alongside Curse Mackey and SINE. Now, David J is returning to Orlando not for a performance, but for a DJ set at Stonewall. So not only is this a perfect chance to hear music that inspires and delights one of the most eccentric and voracious minds in post-punk – we wonder if he’ll play any of the dub reggae that inspired his early bass playing – from his own collection, but it’s a chance for everyone to buy a drink to David J for going above and beyond for Orlando fans. – Matthew Moyer 9:30 p.m. | Stonewall Orlando, 741 W.

B Y DA N S AVAG E
I found your column after a Google search. I saw your e-mail address at the bottom and was hoping for some insight. My issue is this: Two years into our 23-year marriage, my wife declared that she didn’t want to kiss me or perform oral on me. Several years ago, she had an affair and confessed that she not only kissed this other person but performed oral on them as well. Why them and not me? Should I just go find someone willing to do what I want? I have a high sex drive, but I find that I don’t want to sleep with my wife anymore because there is never any foreplay and a few minutes into it she’s telling me to hurry up. I don’t feel wanted, and honestly I no longer desire her. What do you make of this? Hurting Unwanted Husband Before telling you what I make of your e-mail, HUH, I want to tell you what I wish I could make out of your e-mail: a time machine. If I could turn all those pixels and code and whatever else into a working time machine, I’d drag your ass back to 1996 (and try to talk you out of marrying your wife) or 1998 (and try to talk you into leaving her after two years of marriage). But since time machines aren’t a thing – at least not yet – we’ll have to talk about the here and now. Your wife isn’t attracted to you, and never was, or hasn’t been for a long, long time. And now the feeling is mutual – you aren’t attracted to her anymore, either. And if you’re seriously wondering why she kissed and blew that other person – the person with whom she had an affair – when she hasn’t wanted to kiss or blow you for 20-plus years (“Why them and not me?”), HUH, the answer is as painful as it is obvious: Your wife was attracted to her affair partner (that’s why them) and she’s not attracted to you (that’s why not you). Now, it’s possible your wife was attracted to you a long time ago; I assume she was kissing and blowing you while you were dating and during the couple dozen months of marriage. (She wouldn’t have to announce she was going to stop doing those things if she’d never started.) But at some point relatively early in your marriage, HUH, your wife’s desire to swallow your spit and inhale your dick evaporated. It’s possible her desire to swallow/inhale the spit/dick of her affair partner would have evaporated in roughly the same amount of time, and she would have lost interest in him and his dick and his spit, as well. Some people have a hard time sustaining desire over time – and contrary to popular belief, women have a harder time sustaining desire in committed, romantic relationships than men do. (Wednesday Martin wrote an entire NYT best-selling book
about it, Untrue: Why Nearly Everything We Believe About Women, Lust and Infidelity Is Wrong and How the New Science Can Set Us Free.) Of course, it’s possible your wife isn’t the problem. You may have said or done something that extinguished your wife’s desire for you. Or, hey, maybe your personal hygiene leaves everything to be desired. (I’ve received countless letters over the years from women whose husbands refuse to brush their teeth and/or can’t wipe their asses properly.) Or maybe you’re emotionally distant or cold or contemptuous or incredibly shitty in bed. Or maybe you’re not the problem! I don’t know you, HUH and other than the very few details you included your very brief letter, I don’t know what’s going on in your marriage. But I do know this: If you can leave, HUH, you most likely should. But if you decide to stay because you want to stay, or because leaving is unthinkable for cultural or religious or financial reasons … well, seeing as how your wife hasn’t wanted to fuck you for decades, and seeing as how you no longer want to fuck your wife, you should release each other from the monogamous commitment you made more than two decades ago. If you can adjust your expectations – if you can both agree to define your marriage as companionate, i.e., you’re friends and life partners, not romantic or sexual partners – you may be able to appreciate your marriage for what it is. But to do that, you’ll have to let go of the anger and disappointment you feel over what it’s not. And to be clear: If your marriage is companionate, you should both be free to seek sex with outside partners. Simple question, probably not a simple answer: How do you keep things exciting once the shiny, new phase of a relationship is over? Is it normal to reach a stage where you know someone so well that they’ve become boring? Isn’t that just the fucking worst? Same Old, Same Old Recognizing that some people actually enjoy boring – I have it on good authority that some people can get a thrill knitting sweaters and sitting still – there is something the rest of us can do to keep things exciting once the shiny, new phase of a relationship is over: go on strange and exciting new adventures together. Early on in the relationship, SOSO, your new partner was your exciting new adventure, and you were theirs. But now instead of being the exciting new adventure, you have to figure out what exciting new adventures you’d like to go on
“ W H Y N OT M E ? ”
together – and then get out there and go on them. I’m a young, nonbinary ethical slut, and I have a question about a kink that one of my partners is discovering. We are very close, although we are not sexually active with each other at this point (we are currently long-distance). She has another partner with whom she is currently exploring “little” play. I feel personally uncomfortable with ageregression play, but I obviously want to be supportive and understanding. We have fairly good communication, and I am able to tell her when I feel uncomfortable and that I still love and support her but I just can’t talk about “little” play at the time. I would love to be able to talk about it with her and be supportive, and at the very least make sure I don’t say anything ignorant or hurtful to her. My question is this: How can I stretch my zone of comfort and learn about this kink in a healthy and educated way? A Little Uncomfortable If you want to get more comfortable discussing “little” play, i.e., adults pretending to be small children with other consenting adults, the “Dream a Little” podcast is a good place to start. It’s hosted by Lo, an AB/ DL (adult baby/diaper lover) who has been a guest on my own podcast and who recently made an appearance in the column offering advice to a sad and lonely AB/DL. That said, ALU, you aren’t obligated to listen to your partner talk about this kink if the topic makes you uncomfortable – or just bores you senseless. Tell her that you support her and you know it’s exciting to explore a new kink, and while she doesn’t have to hide this from you, it’s not something you’re comfortable – at least for now – discussing at length.
