PRIMARY ELECTION OVERHAUL SET FOR NOVEMBER BALLOT Rejecting arguments by the Republican and Democratic parties and Attorney General Ashley Moody, the Florida Supreme Court has cleared the way for voters to decide whether to overhaul the state’s primary-election system. Justices, in a 4-1 decision, approved a proposed constitutional amendment that would allow registered voters to cast ballots in primary elections regardless of party affiliation. The two candidates getting the most votes in each primary would advance to the general election. The measure will go on the November ballot. If approved, it would be a major change from Florida’s longstanding “closed” primary system, which generally limits primaries to voters registered with parties. “We are very pleased with the court’s decision and look forward to letting all registered voters vote in every taxpayer funded election,” said Glenn Burhans, chairman of the political committee All Voters Vote, which spearheaded the drive to put the proposal on the ballot. The Supreme Court plays a critical role in ballot initiatives because it must determine whether they meet legal requirements, such as not being misleading to voters or not improperly lumping together multiple topics. Justices are not supposed to consider the merits of proposed amendments. Thursday’s majority opinion, in part, said the wording of the proposed ballot title and summary – what voters see when they go to the polls – complies with requirements for clarity. “The ballot title clearly identifies the subject of the initiative,” said the opinion, shared by Chief Justice Charles Canady and justices Ricky Polston, Jorge Labarga and Alan Lawson. “The ballot summary clearly and unambiguously explains the chief purpose of the initiative, which is to allow all registered voters to vote in primary elections in Florida for state Legislature, governor and Cabinet. Further, the ballot summary explains the details of this change in the primary election process by outlining that if the initiative passes, all candidates for an office will appear on the same primary ballot, and the 8

two highest vote getters will advance to the general election.” Also, the court majority said the proposal does not improperly combine more than one subject – a concept known as “logrolling.” “Because each of the initiative’s components a=re part of a single dominant plan or scheme, the initiative does not engage in impermissible logrolling,” the opinion said. But dissenting Justice Carlos Muniz argued, in part, that the ballot summary would not properly inform voters that the proposal “would take away the Legislature’s discretion to provide for state-run elections to choose political party nominees for those offices.” Muniz said the measure should be blocked from going on the ballot. “For Florida voters who are members of political parties – which is to say, a strong majority of voters – the century-old tradition of electing party nominees in state-run primary elections is an essential aspect of participation in the electoral process,” Muniz wrote. “It is not an exaggeration to say that Floridians likely consider voting in such elections to be their right. The proposed amendment would take away the Legislature’s discretion to provide for these state-run party nominating elections for the affected offices. This legal effect is evident from the plain meaning of the proposed amendment’s text.” The Republican Party of Florida and the Florida Democratic Party united in court to try to block the proposed amendment and were backed by Moody. One of the issues raised by Muniz and opponents related to part of the text of the proposal that says nothing in a subsection of the amendment “shall prohibit a political party from nominating a candidate to run for office under this subsection.” One possibility discussed during a December hearing at the Supreme Court was that parties could choose nominees in “pre-primaries,” with those candidates then advancing to the primary ballot. “This proposed change to the constitutional status quo – a status quo that has allowed the Legislature for over 100 years to mandate state-run elections to select political party nominees – is not a mere detail,” Muniz wrote. “The proposed amendment would make the selection of political party nominees for

the affected offices a private affair, subject to each party’s discretion. Given the expense and the logistical complexity of conducting a statewide election in our large and diverse state, no substitute, party-run nomination process is likely to resemble our existing state-run elections. And any objectively reasonable voter would consider this change a material legal effect of the proposed amendment.” The primary proposal will appear on the November ballot as Amendment 3. It joins three other initiatives that have been approved for the ballot, including a measure that would increase the minimum wage, a measure that would make it harder to amend the Constitution in the future and a measure that would change wording in the Constitution about the citizenship of voters. – Jim Saunders, News Service of Florida

MISSOURI CHANCELLOR TAPPED TO LEAD UCF After a months-long search, the chancellor of the University of Missouri has been tapped to serve as president of the University of Central Florida. The UCF Board of Trustees on Friday named Alexander Cartwright as president-elect, with the state university system’s Board of Governors expected to confirm the selection on Wednesday, according to an announcement by UCF. Cartwright has served as chancellor of the University of Missouri since 2017 and previously served as provost and executive vice chancellor for the State University of New York. “This is an opportunity to build on a metropolitan research university with an ecosystem of industry partnership and a diverse student body of almost 70,000 students,” Cartwright said in a statement posted on the UCF website. “That to me is extremely exciting.” If confirmed, Cartwright will replace interim President Thad Seymour Jr. Seymour took the interim post early last year after the resignation of former President Dale Whittaker amid a controversy about the misuse of money for building projects. UCF said the presidential search process lasted six months. – News Service of Florida

Orlando Weekly lays off 13 staff members as coronavirus pandemic disrupts global economy In light of the unprecedented economic catastrophe brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, Orlando Weekly is heartbroken to inform our readers and community that we have had to furlough members of our staff today. Cuts came from every department, including editorial, events, sales, production and circulation. It’s our sincere hope that after weathering this storm, we’ll be able to bring back our incredibly valued staff. At the moment we can’t offer a timeline. We are a free publication and website, and virtually 100 percent of Orlando Weekly’s revenue is dependent on our community’s ability to gather in public – in restaurants, bars, theaters, museums, and at events and festivals. Since a majority of our advertisers are ceasing operations as quarantine measures go into effect, we simply don’t have a path forward with our full staff and revenues so severely compromised. Remaining employees across the company are taking pay cuts and covering multiple roles for the time being. “In Orlando Weekly’s 30-year history, this is the absolutely unthinkable coming to pass. Never in our wildest dreams did we anticipate this, and I am heartbroken to have to furlough these hard-working, talented people,” says Orlando Weekly publisher Graham Jarrett. “My hope is that in the very near future, we can go back to business as usual. We have always been a small, scrappy staff that accomplishes way more than we should, and this will never be truer than in the coming weeks and months. We remain committed to Orlando’s arts, culture, entertainment, music, dining and nightlife communities and we intend to continue working tirelessly to deliver high-quality journalism to the city we love, as well as outstanding service and results to the businesses we serve.” We don’t know what the future holds, but we’ll be working our asses off to bring you the local news, updates and stories you need through these tough weeks and months. If you appreciate what we do for the community, please consider making a donation on our support page. In these unprecedented times, when we are seeing so many of our neighboring businesses shut their doors, we will be doing what we can to support them and keep them going, and every single contribution you make will help keep us going. We’re all in this together, and together, we will get to the other side. With love and gratitude, Your Orlando Weekly Team

CAN’T STOP, WON’T STOP BY JESSICA BRYCE YOUNG

Wednesday was a very bad day. I stepped out of a meeting with longtime Orlando Weekly film critic Steve Schneider to learn that several – most, really – of my co-workers would be laid off thanks to that goddamned coronavirus. As bans against gatherings cause restaurants and bars across the metro area to close up shop, those same establishments are unable to purchase the ads that keep us afloat. In addition, those bans have hurt our other primary revenue stream: our kickass events, which obviously we can’t treat Orlando to now either. Taken together, COVID-19 is, as a fellow Euclid Media Group editor put it, a “nearly perfect weapon against alternative weeklies.” So 13 of us were told not to report to work for the foreseeable future. At Orlando Weekly, we’re now down to a skeleton crew, and news is being brought to you by just two editorial staffers, myself and digital content editor Dave Plotkin. We and a small team of sales and operations staff will continue to put out a print edition each week as long as it is economically feasible to do so, and we’ll keep the website stuffed full of stories about how this pandemic is affecting Central Florida. It won’t be easy. But I have to tell the truth: Pay cut, tiny staff, working from home and all, they’ll have to pry the passwords out of my feverish, COVID-riddled hands. The work Orlando Weekly does is more important now than ever as we face down the double threat of the novel coronavirus and a government that seems bent on, if not actually killing us, certainly not doing much to help us stay alive. Local journalism is as necessary as it ever was – much, much more so at this moment, in fact. If there’s anything we can do to keep the public informed or entertained, we’re doing it. And the fact that we can provide that service to Orlando for free, with no cover price or paywall, means we may be the only avenue to some of this news for the city’s most vulnerable. And anyway, let’s face it: I’ve got nothing else to do right now. I’ve been at Orlando Weekly in one capacity or another since, gulp, 2003. It’s all I know how to do at this point, and I refuse to go quietly.

In my life I’ve been a waitress, a bartender, a club booker, an artist relations rep in the music business, an experiential marketing events manager, an arts programmer in city government, a bookseller, and an editor at this here magazine. Orlando Weekly is by far my favorite of all of those jobs; I can’t let it go just yet. My furloughed co-workers are all incredible, capable people, and you should hire them or donate to the GoFundMe to help them out (“Help Orlando Weekly Staffers”) or just send them a pizza because damn, am I gonna miss eating Monday lunch with all of them. Matthew Moyer knows everything there is to know about darkwave and noise music, as well as the Dewey Decimal System; he has the ability to get any artist alive to open up in an interview and tell him (and, by extension, our readers) things they’ve told no one else. Solomon Gustavo has incredible news instincts and is poised at the beginning of a career in journalism that will take him around the country, I have no doubt; I only hope he comes back to us sooner than later. Also, great jump shot. Tess Bonacci had started as our calendar editor the same week the virus began devastating the local event scene – she spent more time canceling and deleting events in her two weeks than she did writing about them. But her experience in public health and emergency medicine were incredibly helpful, not to mention comforting. Melissa McHenry is an extremely talented and swift designer with the greatest laugh you’ll ever have the pleasure to hear. If you have a dollar or two to spare to make sure one of Orlando’s most vital and entertaining journalistic institutions is able to stay afloat in these extremely difficult times, please consider donating at orlandoweekly. com. In the meantime, stay safe out there – stay cool, stay cozy and stay the fuck at home!

HOW TO PROFIT FROM THE PLAGUE Go grab the pitchforks, everyone BY JEFFREY C. BILLMAN

T

o write about politics is to become jaded. Time and time again, you watch people you admire disappoint you and idealism get overwhelmed by the seductive cocktail of power, ego and money. This was always true. But it’s especially true in the Trump era, when the president has turned bad faith into both an art form and standard operating procedure. And it takes an exceptional kind of venality to pierce the armor of numbness and provoke seething, go-grab-the-pitchforks rage. Let’s talk about Sen. Richard Burr, R-North Carolina. On Feb. 3, Burr and Sen. Lamar Alexander wrote an op-ed for Fox News, saying that while Americans are “rightly concerned” about the coronavirus, “Thankfully, the United States today is better prepared than ever before to face emerging public health threats, like the coronavirus, in large part due to the work of the Senate Health Committee, Congress and the Trump Administration.” The last two months have shown that the administration was anything but prepared. The U.S. is still playing catch-up on tests, states are begging for ventilators and hospitals are pleading for protective equipment. Most important, the country didn’t implement social-distancing and quarantine measures early enough to contain the spread of the virus when it could have. Now, we’re on track to look more like Italy than South Korea. No president could have stopped the coronavirus from reaching American soil. But you can fairly lay the blame for our current mad scramble to avoid calamity at Trump’s feet. Throughout January and February, the president consistently downplayed the increasingly obvious threat, insisting that everything was under control even as topsecret intelligence briefings showed that disaster loomed. That Trump now wants to retcon history doesn’t change the reality that the administration’s failure to take COVID-19 seriously will likely cost thousands of lives.

But when you elect a clown, you expect a circus, and when you elect a narcissistic buffoon from reality television, you expect incompetence. But Burr, as chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, was privy to classified briefings on how bad things were about to get. While Trump was gaslighting the American people to prop up the stock market, Burr could have warned them about the incoming pandemic and forced the administration to confront it head-on. Instead, 10 days after co-authoring that rosy op-ed on how prepared the federal government was for COVID-19, Burr sold most of his stock portfolio in 33 transactions totaling between $628,000 and $1.7 million, ProPublica reported last Thursday. Included in that sale were up to $250,000 worth of shares of hospitality companies that shed more than half their value when the market began to tank a week later.

On Feb. 27, Burr told a group of wellheeled donors and business elites that shit was about to hit the fan – travel bans, school shutdowns, military hospitals, the whole thing. “There’s one thing that I can tell you about this: [The coronavirus] is much more aggressive in its transmission than anything that we have seen in recent history,” Burr told them in a private meeting. NPR obtained a recording and published it last Thursday. At a press conference that same day, Trump promised Americans it would soon be over: “When you have 15 [cases] and the 15 within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero, that’s a pretty good job we’ve done.” Burr, who damn well knew better, didn’t say a word.

By Sunday evening, the U.S. had nearly 33,000 documented COVID-19 cases, behind only China and Italy, and more than 400 deaths. Those numbers will likely double within three to six days. It’s estimated that more than 3 million people filed for unemployment last week – including more than 80,000 from Burr’s home state – and the president of the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis told Bloomberg News this weekend that unemployment could reach 30 percent by June. That’s Great Depression territory. Adding insult to injury, Burr and his Republican colleagues tried to ram through a $1.8 trillion stimulus package that allocates $50 billion, few strings attached, to bail out the airline industry and creates a $425 billion slush fund for the Treasury Department to give to whomever it deems fit – quite possibly, Trump’s friends and family. Republicans then got the vapors when Democrats objected. In a better world, Burr would have not only been forced to resign by now, but he’d be staring down an ignominious frogmarch in a shiny new set of silver bracelets, too. As it is, neither of those things is likely. On Friday, Burr asked the do-nothing Senate Ethics Committee to review his actions instead, allowing time for the storm to pass, as it always does in the age of Trump. Besides, he’s not the only one to apparently act on inside information. Newly appointed Georgia Sen. Kelly Loeffler and her husband, who runs the New York Stock Exchange, dumped millions of dollars in stocks after a private Jan. 24 briefing on the coronavirus to the Senate Health Committee; she also purchased shares in Citrix, which offers telework software. Burr is also on that committee. Both he and Loeffler deny they engaged in insider trading or violated the STOCK Act, the 2012 law barring members of Congress from using nonpublic information to trade shares; Burr was one of only three senators to vote against it. Burr says he based his decision on orlandoweekly.com

publicly available information. (Relatedly, I have some pristine Florida swampland to sell you.) Loeffler says her family’s portfolio is managed by a third party, and she didn’t know about the sale until weeks later. (Also for sale: the Brooklyn Bridge.) Here is the bottom line: Burr knew enough to look out for his own interests, which means he knew enough to look out for yours. But he chose not to – not with human lives or the entire economy on the line. Anyone have a pitchfork I can borrow? feedback@orlandoweekly.com

Phoenix Tears Productions’ Ten Minute Tuesdays presented two short original plays, staged in a two-car garage, to an oversold audience in a folding chair-filled driveway “TEN MINUTE TUESDAYS” AT THE TURPIN GARAGE THEATRE | PHOTO BY SETH KUBERSKY

March is supposed to come in

like a lion and leave like a lamb, but this month began mild and turned into a mindmelting dystopian nightmare that would make Mad Max gobble Xanax. This past week in particular was like Thunderdome without the catchy Tina Turner theme song, as countless organizations – including the Fairwinds Broadway series, Orlando Fringe Festival and even Orlando Weekly – announced cancellations and layoffs in light of the COVID-19 crisis. It’s challenging to write a column called “Live Active Cultures” when coronavirus quarantine has canceled all live cultural activities, and harder still to stay positive after seeing half of my hard-working colleagues put out of work. But, to misquote Monty Python, we’re not dead yet, and we’re going to need the arts if we’re going to make it out this situation semi-sane. So as long as we’re all still here, I’m going to keep shining a spotlight on creative people who are trying to make the best of this worst-case scenario. When I attended Phoenix Tears Productions’ monthly Ten Minute Tuesdays event back on March 3, I had no idea at the time it would be one of the last shows I’d see pre-shutdown. I knew producers Megan Markham and Mallory Vance from their interactive audio dramas at the Fringe, but that evening was my first visit to their Turpin Garage Theatre.

Said venue is literally a two-car garage in a residential neighborhood south of downtown, with curtains and clip-lights turning it into a simple but serviceable stage. Every folding chair in the driveway was filled as the pair – joined by guest producer Ginger Potter – welcomed the oversold audience to “Ladies, Ladies, Ladies!,” their celebration of Women’s History Month, by bursting a balloon representing “the fucking patriachy.” The program consisted of two short original plays, both of which were written, performed, directed and produced by women, bridged by a musical set from feminist folk-rock singer-songwriter Maeve Kelly. Playwright Jackie Martin’s “Hallmark Doesn’t Make Cards for Us” featured Merritt Anne Greene and Cara Noel as a mother and daughter coming to terms with their tattered relationship. Director Elaitheia Quinn, a veteran of Theater on the Edge, drew intensely raw emotional performances from her cast that made me grateful the neighbors (whom Vance says have been very supportive) weren’t calling the cops about a domestic disturbance. Carol M. Rice’s “I Shot My Husband” was equally dark, but much funnier and less shouty, thanks to slyly comedic performances by Markham as an attempted murderess and Vance as her nonplussed gal-pal. The Ten Minute Tuesdays series has

been producing short plays since 2016, curating scripts found through open submissions, performing them using local actors and directors, and charging patrons only $2 to attend. Their next installment was supposed to be Shakespeare-themed, but that April 7 show – like so much of life – is on hold. However, they are still forging ahead with this week’s staged reading of Ophelia: A New Musical, albeit in a way no one could have imagined only a few weeks ago. Jeremiah Gibbons’ new musical adaptation of Shakespeare’s Hamlet from the depressed Dane’s doomed girlfriend’s POV was supposed to have its work-in-progress premiere at Dragonfly Studio in Ocoee on Wednesday, March 25, with a follow-up performance March 28, ahead of a full production planned for December. Now, the Saturday-night show has been scrapped, but Wednesday’s show will go on without a live audience. Instead, anyone who purchases a ticket can watch the YouTube live stream or view a recorded version that will be available for a week. While Vance concedes that the past week has been “really rough,” both personally and professionally, she told me (via safely distant social media) that her production was “rolling with the punches.” “Phoenix Tears got its start running rehearsals over Skype for shows that were pulled together in two or three days in orlandoweekly.com

person,” Vance says. “We are still moving forward with the rest of our season and working on some online content to provide our audience while we wait this out together.” Although Phoenix Tears is pioneering live local online musicals, they’re far from the only Orlando artists trying to keep hope alive via the Internet. Musician Andy Matchett hosted a “No Days Off “telethon on March 21, featuring acts like the Oak Hill Drifters, Lauren Carder Fox and Eugene Snowden. Performer Chase Padgett has created a Digital Fringe Fest of shows by TJ Dawe, Rob Gee and other favorites streaming on Vimeo; rent them for $8 each or $30 for all 10, with three months to watch them. The nonprofit Timucua Arts Foundation is rebroadcasting past performances (musical and theatrical) for free most nights. And Blue Bamboo Center for the Arts recently launched its Blue Stream pay-per-view series with a concert by Terri Binion and Beth McKee (see Bao Le-Huu’s review on page 25) – you can watch live and archived shows for $20 each, with performers getting two-thirds of the fee. I’ll close out with some final words of encouragement from Vance: “I have a lot of faith in the theatrical community. We will pull through this and come out the other side with beautiful art.” skubersky@orlandoweekly.com

The issue isn’t just the immediate concern of upcoming concerts, but looking at touring overall – there is somewhat of a domino effect here. Even if a tour is supposed to reach Florida in June, it might start in Canada or the Northwest in late April. Canceling the beginning of a tour, for example, generally wrecks the rest of it. Then, attempts to reschedule the tour slam up against shows that have already been locked in for later in the year. The repercussions for us (in terms of cancellations) are much more extensive than one might assume. Savage Master at Will’s Pub

Endoxa Booking’s Pete Olen on the effects of the coronavirus on Orlando’s live music scene BY MATTHEW MOYER

T

he coronavirus pandemic is having unbelievable impacts throughout all areas of public life here in Orlando, as in the rest of the world. Aside from the ever-present worries of health and a healthcare system stretched to the breaking point, every day another hammer seems to fall on a different business, a favorite place to gather, a public space, a venue … with no end in sight. (As I wrote this piece, I learned that I’d been furloughed by Orlando Weekly, driving the point even further home.) In less than a week, the pandemic has set off seismic changes in our locals arts and music scene. Live music, in particular, in Central Florida has been dealt a seemingly lasting blow by the necessary steps of social distancing. Venues and bars have closed, a phalanx of talented bartenders, sound engineers and venue staff have been laid off, and musicians – both full- and part-time – are finding themselves without paying gigs or audiences. To say nothing of the national touring circuit being effectively over, indefinitely. How long will this go on? To help us get some perspective on what has happened both nationally and locally to the music business just over the last six days, we turned to local concert promoter Pete Olen of Endoxa Booking. Olen books shows throughout Florida on a wide range of scale – from Uncle Lou’s to the Abbey – and genre – hip-hop to metal to industrial

How were you feeling during the last show (Voltaire at the Abbey, Friday, March 13) you hosted? Is there a particular band you really regret not being able to bring to town? We were able to enjoy our last show because it wasn’t exactly clear how bad things were going to be at that moment. I thought we’d lose a few shows here and there, but it wasn’t certain that venues would be closing for 30 days. I don’t think anyone was even talking about that as a realistic possibility. Honestly, this wasn’t a huge part of conversations on Friday. Really, things have drastically changed since then.

ON SCREENS IN ORLANDO Bloodshot Barack and Michelle Obama’s Higher Ground Productions funded this documentary about a summer camp for teens with disabilities that operated in New York state in the early 1970s. The kicker is that the camp’s staff and clientele yielded some activists who would go on to be key players in the disability-rights movement later in that decade. Fascinating stuff, though I’ll be interested to see if subscribers read the title and show up expecting an exposé of 1990s gangbangers who moonlighted as drag queens. (Premieres Wednesday on Netflix) Kill Chain: The Cyber War on America’s Elections Hacker-turned-cybersecurityexpert Harri Hursti details the forces both foreign and domestic that are exploiting the multitude of weaknesses in the U.S. voting system. HBO’s promo for this timely doc also promises interviews with “cyber experts and U.S. senators from both parties who are fighting to secure the integrity of the vote before November 2020.” Emphasis mine; cynical, disgusted snickering yours.

Making the Cut promises more of an international focus, with designers from around the world seeking success as fashion entrepreneurs. Evaluating their work is a panel of judges that includes famously friendly presences like Naomi Campbell, Nicole Richie, and a rusted, protruding nail. The show’s big innovation is that it’s a “shoppable experience” that lets viewers purchase whichever designs strike their fancy directly from Amazon. Great timing, what with everybody suddenly having no money or jobs or anything. Maybe they should retool the tech so we can just send our résumés directly to Bezos. (Premieres Friday on Amazon Prime) Ozark Season 3 It’s Breaking Bad meets Green Acres once again, with Jason Bateman and Laura Linney reprising their roles as Chicago spouses turned red-state money launderers. This season picks up six months after the last one left off, with the casino the Byrdes were building now up and running. Meanwhile, Linney’s Wendy is full-on embracing her life of crime, but the arrival of her mentally ill brother is bound to create fresh complications. Oh, and one of the 10 new episodes is titled Kevin Cronin Was Here, which seems to warn of some sort of REO/Styx mashup. Maybe we just needed to be reminded that organized crime isn’t the biggest sin humanity ever dreamed up. (Premieres Friday on Netflix) Unorthodox A limited series about a young woman who flees an Orthodox Jewish community in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, to explore a new lifestyle of freedom and music in Berlin. Given that that’s where Bowie did some of his best work, I’m kind of hoping she cuts a track there called “Goys Keep Swinging.” (Premieres Friday on Netflix)

REALITY BITES ORLANDO’S RESTAURANT INDUSTRY IS IN GREAT PERIL. HERE ARE SOME WAYS TO HELP BY FAIYAZ KA RA

S

ecurity, stability and permanence are fragile constructs at the best of times, but in this grave new world we all find ourselves in, well, they’ve all but shattered. The economic ramifications of COVID-19 are being felt across every industry from aerospace to publishing, and that includes right here at Orlando Weekly. “We simply don’t have a path forward with our full staff with revenues so severely compromised,” said publisher Graham Jarrett last week. The company hopes to rehire its furloughed staff members once the economy has stabilized somewhat – both sentiments shared across the labor divide, particularly in the restaurant world, where COVID-19’s virulence has made the outlook very bleak. “This has, without a doubt, been the most extreme and trying time we have ever experienced,” says Jason Chin, who runs Osprey Tavern, Reyes Mezcaleria and 22

Seito Sushi Baldwin Park with his wife, Sue. ”Given the extreme nature of what has transpired, it has left the business with few options to keep everyone employed at the level that we were even at last week.” Joe Creech, who runs Hunger Street Tacos on Fairbanks Avenue, echoes Chin’s distress. “I’m worried about providing for my family and staff through the dog days of summer. We need people to order takeout and delivery from us and our delivery partners. As it stands right now, we’re at one-third our regular business. Can’t survive long like that,” Creech says. Indeed, most restaurants (as of press time) have pivoted to a takeout and delivery model, if they’re still open for business at all. Many are offering curbside service so customers don’t have to get out of their cars. In fact, it’s hard to think of any restaurant in town that isn’t going the to-go/delivery route given the do-or-

die circumstances in which they find themselves. Even Kadence, a high-end omakase house in Audubon Park, is making the transition, despite knowing it’s not a sustainable long-term approach “Honestly, we can handle this for the next few months because we’re small,” says Lordfer Lalicon who, along with Mark Berdin and Jennifer Bañagale, runs the nineseat Audubon Park sushi spot. But, he adds, “I can’t imagine what it would be like for other restaurants.” Transforming into a ghost kitchen is a stopgap measure at best – no restaurant can sustain itself on this sort of approach for very long. It’s an attempt, and a flailing one at that, just to keep their heads above water. Momofuku restaurant emperor and Ugly Delicious show creator David Chang thinks even making the effort is futile, calling it “fool’s gold” on Twitter. He also tweeted, with characteristic bluntness, “We are so fucked.” Naturally, corporate-backed restaurants and those with deep-pocketed investors behind them are in a far better position to withstand the downward spiral. Unfortunately, that could mean a return to a very insipid restaurant landscape. “What worries me,” says James Beard Award-winning chef Norman Van Aken, “is the very real possibility that industrious, talented people in their 30s and 40s will be crushed financially by this pandemic. And it goes to follow that it might terribly stunt the growth of our flowering hospitality business. We need these entrepreneurs to continue the battle against mediocrity and corporate blandness.” But corporate-run restaurants are also in a position to better help their employees at an unprecedented time like this. José Andrés’ ThinkFoodGroup, the company behind Jaleo at Disney Springs, has set up an Employee Support Fund e-Gift Card program whereby all proceeds from sales of the restaurant’s e-gift cards (currently available at a 20 percent discount) will be divided evenly, with half going toward extending employee pay and benefits and the other half going to the company’s ThinkFamilyFund, which provides financial relief to employees and their families. Others, like Chelsie Savage of Proper & Wild and Sanctum Cafe, are shunning pessimism and despondence and doubling down on their mission and core values to raise the health of the community by springing into action. “It’s crazy to be at the helm of a ship with 100 employees looking to you for direction as we walk into this unprecedented time,” Savage says, “but we’re working around the clock to take care of our community. Literally overnight, all three of my restaurants (Proper & Wild and two Sanctum Cafés) reinvented their business models and implemented multiple platforms to do just that.” In addition to offering to-go orders, curbside pickup and delivery – executed by the restaurants’ in-house employees, not a third-party delivery service – Savage launched realdamngoodfood.com, an online ordering platform for family-style and pre-packaged bulk meals. Henry Moso, the James Beard Award-nominated chef of Kabooki Sushi, says he’s in survival mode. Moso closed Kabooki Sushi Sand Lake this weekend after business dropped by more than 80 percent, and focused on a onetime gig feeding 600-plus employees of a large seafood plant in Tampa. “If I can do this on a weekly basis, then great. At least I can employ a couple of my cooks,” he says.

But COVID-19 has also led to the cancellation of conventions, large gatherings and events, which has really hurt food truck operators like Jimmy Nguyen and Chau Vo of Hot Asian Buns. “Pretty much all of our events are canceled until June,” Vo says. “We don’t have any other source of income besides the food truck. We just signed up to all the delivery services – however, processing time is taking longer than anticipated due to an influx of new accounts in their systems.” Hot Asian Buns will launch on Grubhub March 20, and is looking at offering takeout and pickup orders, but their plight just underscores the great need for immediate financial relief for food truck operators and restaurant owners alike. “Governments should cease sales taxes, payroll taxes and utilities until we can operate normally,” says fourtime James Beard Award-nominated chef Hari Pulapaka of Cress Restaurant in DeLand. “Landlords should give rent concessions or waivers, especially if the government aids them in turn with stimulus discounts.” Last week, the National Restaurant Association asked the federal government for $145 billion in direct aid to restaurants to help pay employees, as well as deferments in lease/rent/mortgage payments, $100 billion in federally backed business interruption insurance (many business policies exclude pandemics), $135 million in emergency unemployment assistance, $45 billion in affordable loans and $35 billion in community development block grants. Some other modes of financial relief for restaurants: • The U.S. Small Business Administration is offering low-interest loans.

• Florida governor Ron DeSantis activated the Florida Small Business Emergency Bridge Loan Program to provide interest-free loans to businesses impacted by COVID-19. • Grass-roots relief funds are being set up across town to help restaurants and restaurant workers survive the downturn. • The James Beard Foundation has set up an Industry Relief Fund to provide direct emergency funds to the community of culinary businesses negatively impacted by COVID-19. • The Independent Restaurant Coalition was formed to provide a united voice demanding legislative change. But navigating through an assistance loan application can be a byzantine process. Kevin O’Donnell, who runs the Local Butcher & Market, the Porch, Big Fin Seafood Kitchen and the soon-to-open Russell’s on Ivanhoe, is thankful for any economic assistance, but remains cautious. “How much red tape will be required to receive assistance for affected workers? What is the real time frame? With the current environment, small business owners and their employees don’t have the luxury of time.” Time is also of the utmost importance to Justin Kim, a restaurateur who’s opening a sushi concept in the old Tasty Wok space on East Colonial Drive. The coronavirus has him rethinking his plans. “It’s making me reconsider. What worries me most is not being able to time our opening and not knowing when this pandemic will end.” It could be weeks, it could be months, but amid all the uncertainty, restaurants need our assistance and support now more than ever.

Here are ways we, the restaurant-going public, can help these vital meeting places in our communities: • Continue patronizing restaurants. Practically every restaurant in town now offers takeout, curbside pickup and/or delivery. Some even offer pre-packaged meals and family-style portions. • Avoid third-party delivery services as much as possible. They may offer free delivery to the consumer, but they take a hefty commission from restaurants. Many restaurants have their in-house employees execute deliveries, so call the restaurant first before heading to Uber Eats, Grubhub, Doordash or Postmates. • Tip generously. • Buy gift cards and restaurant merchandise. • Reschedule restaurant reservations for a later date rather than canceling them outright. • Consider signing the “Save America’s Restaurants” petition at Change.org imploring government leaders to step in. So what does the future hold? Who knows, but I will say this: No one in the industry, not for one second, believes COVID-19 won’t forever change the city’s restaurant landscape. The unfortunate reality is that some of our favorite establishments will shutter for good, and things will get a lot worse before they get better. It’s an awful truth. Says Van Aken, “The shape of our social lives is being transformed in nanoseconds, it seems. What was unthinkable a week ago is the new normal. And it ain’t my kind of normal.”

BY B AO L E - H U U BETH MCKEE AND TERRI BINION | PHOTO BY JEN CRAY

Well, friends, much has changed

in the past week. Out there in the world, here in OW’s own drastically reduced ranks, the world is unrecognizable, swept by the coronavirus tsunami. The strange now is already devastating, and the future is uncertain – just ask the guy whose column and spiritual lifeblood are heavily predicated on live music. I don’t know how long it’ll be until we can see another concert together, but we will again. Until then, be safe, keep sane, check in on each other. We’ll get through together, as always. I love you, Orlando.

TERRI BINION AND BETH MCKEE AT BLUE BAMBOO, MARCH 20

Watching the artists send beauty out into a world seized by fear and isolation, to provide the salvation that only music can give, was a sight of something heroically human

least not in this room. Out there in the world, but in their own seclusion, everyone is tuning in remotely. This is life now, at least for a while. The This is eerie. That it’s not dystopian fiction but the new reality makes it especially pandemic is in full inferno and the walls are closing in by the hour – internationally, heavy. A live concert is about to take place – domestically, locally. A standing 11 p.m. technicians setting up, musicians taking curfew was announced by Orange County their place – but there’s no audience. At Mayor Jerry Demings the same day as this

concert, effective immediately. But here in the Blue Bamboo Center for the Arts, the show goes on. In whatever new form is necessary, the flame of music persists in the Central Florida community. While shut down to the public like all the area’s other venues, Blue Bamboo is leading what might become a local wave of live online concerts. Originally scheduled as a public performance by Orlando roots music icons Terri Binion and Beth McKee, this evening has been adapted into Blue Bamboo’s maiden voyage into pay-per-view concerts, the first of a series of online events. As cold as the idea of watching something as sensory and life-filled as a concert online is, the ice of separation melts fast once the music begins. At least it does when it’s grandes dames like Binion and McKee. And between them and the skeleton crew at Blue Bamboo, something special happened.

Despite the inherent distance of the circumstance, this scene heaved with momentousness and significance. Watching these irrepressible artists and valiant production crew work together to send beauty out into a world seized by fear and isolation – one they couldn’t even see – and provide the salvation that only music can give was a sight of something heroically human. Every word landed with more impact and freshly found relevance to the current condition. Somewhere between their voices, the situation and how it all reverberated in the soul, the quiver was a tremor. It was a moment pregnant with instant zeitgeist and poetic perseverance. The glare of a flat screen will never equal the glow of the stage. Smartly anticipating that, Blue Bamboo recently implemented a four-camera setup for a much richer, more dynamic viewing experience. The recordings look fantastic and are a promising glimpse into an upcoming fount of highquality live music content for a near future that needs it. Until it can be a live venue with an in-house audience again, Blue Bamboo will function as a sound stage transmitting concerts like a local beacon, bringing the warmth of live music like a fireplace in your home. Nothing can disguise the fact that this is not how it’s supposed to be. Live music, in its purest state, should be in person, in communion. These, however, are extreme times. But even if it must be just a sliver for now, the light must still shine. It did Friday night at Blue Bamboo in an intensely local way, and will continue to do so in events like these. Look out for the homegrown ones that are starting to pop up, and tune in. They will keep you right. Blue Bamboo is endeavoring to do at least three online shows a week as long as they’re able. Follow their website (bluebambooartcenter.com) for a schedule of upcoming shows and to view this magical night and all their other pay-per-view content, as well as some discounted and free archived material. baolehuu@orlandoweekly.com

B Y DA N S AVAG E

My question is on managing “gray area” intimacies during the pandemic. I have a lover/friend that I’ve been hanging out with – fucking, drinking tea, going on hikes, eating ice cream, watching movies and other activities – for about nine months. He’s 36 and was married for 10 years and due to that experience he’s been a bit emotionally “boundaried,” but he’s still really sweet and a good communicator. I’m in grad school, so the small amount of time we’ve been spending together has worked well for me. Here’s the issue: He’s also an ER doctor. Do I keep seeing him during this pandemic? I just moved to the city where we both live for my grad program and he’s my main source for connection, comfort and support here. Every time I see him we both feel tremendously less stressed and our connection feels emotionally healthy. I just know he is bound to be at a huge risk for exposure and since he’s not a committed partner and we don’t live together, I don’t know if he falls within or outside of my physical distancing boundary. It seems like the best thing to do from a logistical perspective is hole up with my cat and not see another soul in person until a vaccine is invented or something, but I don’t know when that will happen. Physical Distancing Do’s And Don’ts “This is really a matter of a personal risk/ benefit calculation,” says Dr. Daniel Summers, a pediatrician who lives and works near Boston. “What PDDAD is willing to accept as a risk may be different from what someone else would.” And there’s definitely a health benefit to getting together – we are social animals and isolation is bad for us – but your lover is at high risk of infection. And when front-line health care providers get infected, they tend to get sicker than the average person who gets infected, according to CNN, which is something else you need to factor into your risk/benefit calculation. Additionally, does your boyfriend’s workplace – I’m going to call him your boyfriend for clarity’s sake – have the protective gear he needs to minimize his risk of exposure? “We’re all doing our best to take as many preventive steps to lower our risk of being exposed,” Summers says, “but there’s still a maddeningly unacceptable shortage of personal protective equipment like masks, gowns and gloves nationwide. I hope he has sufficient access to these things. But is there a risk he could get exposed to the virus at work? Definitely.” Summers lives with his husband and four children and in addition to the precautions he takes at work – where he may be seeing patients with coronavirus (he doesn’t know for sure because tests still aren’t available) – he strips down to his underwear on his front porch of his home when he gets home from 26

work. His clothes go straight into the washing machine, and he goes straight into the shower. “I’m still afraid of bringing it home,” Summers says. “But with four kids home from school, my husband’s sanity depends on my being present as much as I can. So for me, staying away isn’t an option. That’s not the case for PDDAD. She has to decide whether the indefinable risk of exposure isn’t worth it. Or, alternatively, she can decide the connection she has with him is important enough to her own wellbeing that the risk is worth it. But only she can make that decision for herself.” If you decide the risk of infection is too great – or if your boyfriend decides the risk of infecting you is too great – you can still be there for each other. You can Skype and Zoom, you can text and sext, you can leave groceries on his porch and wave to him from the sidewalk. But if you decide to keep connecting with each other in person, PDDAD, you should minimize the amount of time you spend moving through the city to get to each other’s places. And that means – emotional boundaries be damned – picking one of your apartments to hole up in together for the duration. I’m pro-sex workers and believe adults should do whatever they consent to, but I’m curious if that applies during the current pandemic. I know of a sex worker who’s still offering himself to clients, who are apparently still hiring him. (He regularly posts of his exploits on social media.) Should the authorities be made aware of this? Just Concerned If the authorities want to start rounding up reckless idiots who are endangering others, JC, the beaches of Florida might be a good place to start. Or the Oval Office. And if your first impulse is to involve the authorities, then you aren’t “pro-sex workers,” JC, because the authorities – particularly the police – are a danger to sex workers. Instead of calling the cops, reach out to this guy and encourage him to see his clients virtually. Instead of face-to-face (or face-to-whatever) meetings, he should go full camwhore for the time being. So if you want to want to help, JC, and not just police or shame, you should hire this guy to do an online session. (And everyone should bear in mind that sex workers are suffering right now too because most are being responsible and not seeing clients. Their incomes have plummeted to zero and they aren’t eligible for unemployment benefits.). I’m a queer poly woman and I have a two-part question about sexting/Skype sex. I didn’t used to think twice about shooting off a nude or a nasty text in my 20s and I’ve

“HOLING UP”

never had qualms about casual relations. But I’ve always needed a baseline of friendship. After getting burned a bunch of times – especially by straight men (queers and other genders are generally way kinder) – I just wasn’t feeling it anymore. Fast forward a few years: After doing a lot of work I started feeling myself again. I started talking with a man that I’d met through mutual friends and flirted with a little in the past. I was upfront with him and told him I would be down to get dirty again sometime but needed to build up some form of friendship first. He enthusiastically agreed and started talking to me about this and that every other day or so. We were talking about meeting up person when the coronavirus lockdown happened and now my libido has shot through the roof. We ended up exchanging photos and got off on FaceTime together. After that, crickets. I would send an innocuous question and get a two-word response. I feel really disrespected and used but at the same time I can see how he doesn’t owe me anything. My questions: What can I do in the future to avoid this sort of situation? And, while we’re all in lockdown, do you have any advice on how to be hot over video when you’re generally a clumsy spaz? Female Resents Insincere Efforts Necessitating Deceit Unfortunately, FRIEND, there’s no surefire way to prevent people from lying to you about being friends in order to get into your pants – virtually or eventually – or to prevent them from changing their minds about being friends once they’ve gotten into your pants. (The former is more likely, but the latter does happen.) Your only options are relying on your bullshit detectors to weed out people you think might be playing you and getting better at shrugging off, blocking and forgetting the dishonest people who manage to get past your bullshit detectors. As for tips about being hot on Zoom or FaceTime or Fox Nation or whatever, I’m afraid I can’t help you there, FRIEND, as I am the clumsiest spaz that ever spazzed. I hate having my photo taken and if a room is dark enough for me to feel comfortable getting naked in it, it’s usually too dark for someone else to see me – whether they’re in the same room with me or sitting in front of a computer on the other side of the world. But someone who’s more at ease in front of the camera (and with whom I’m currently quarantined) tells me that slightly dimmed lighting is better than harsh lighting, leaving something on is hotter than taking it all off, and – if you want to maintain your anonymity – keeping your face and any identifying tattoos out of the shot is a good idea. mail@savagelove.net

Meet Diana (A448100)! This sweet 1-year-old girl is very affectionate with people and playful with other dogs. She is used in our playgroups as our “greeter dog,” as she makes other dogs feel comfortable, introduces them to the group and matches the other dogs’ energy and play styles. Diana likes to be around dogs but not cats – she has been known to chase them. She is already housebroken, leashtrained and microchipped. Diana did test positive for heartworm treatment, and thanks to a generous sponsor much of her heartworm treatment is covered. We need your help to get Diana adopted and in her new home today! For the month of March we are celebrating Lucky Paws and adoption fees are $20 for cats and $20 for dogs. Adoption fees cover sterilization, vaccinations and a microchip. Orange County Animal Services is located at 2769 Conroy Road in Orlando, near the Mall at Millenia. The shelter is open 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 1-5 p.m. Sunday.
