Trump stuns with a win, Rubio gets a second chance, a resurgence of tropical bedbugs in Florida and other things you may have missed this week. »

Trump grabs Florida and the rest of the nation on Election Day: You didn’t repeat the Bush-Gore mess, Florida, but you did give everyone enough anxiety to last them a lifetime. Hillary Clinton won the popular vote, but Trump gained enough Electoral College votes to become the 45th president of the United States. Take the time to dry those tears and get ready for the next four years of work.

the best for us.” – Monivette Cordeiro

Marco Rubio wins re-election against Patrick Murphy: The Republican incumbent won a second term in the U.S. Senate after beating his Democratic challenger, Patrick Murphy, by quite a substantial margin. The Jupiter congressman’s loss wasn’t surprising. Poll after poll showed Rubio riding to victory by at least three to four points. So, please take your seat, senator – we’re taking attendance.

Orange County elects Murphy, Soto and Demings to Congress: Not everything was horrible, terrible, dreadful and awful on Tuesday night. Orange County elected to send three Democrats – Stephanie Murphy, Darren Soto and Val Demings – to Washington, D.C. All three are first-time representatives who could bring new ideas to the legislative branch, and for that we’re glad.

Tropical bedbugs are back after disappearing for 60 years: To put expired icing on top of what has already been a pretty crappy year, University of Florida researchers are reporting tropical bedbugs have been found in Brevard County after decades of absence in the state. That might not sound newsworthy until you learn they spread faster than your everyday bedbug, which could cause an infestation in Florida and the rest of the South. Aside from drinking your blood while you sleep, a severe infestation of these bugs can lead to fear, anxiety, depression, sleeplessness and itchy, blistery reactions in some people. Thanks a lot, 2016! mcordeiro@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

BY JEFFREY C. BILLMAN

I GOT IT WRONG Hate trumped Hillary, and everything I thought I knew about politics was mistaken I underestimated Donald Trump. Actually, scratch that. I didn’t underestimate the man, who remains every bit the racist narcissist he’s shown himself to be over the last several years, a man who deserves neither your respect nor your well wishes. I did, however, underestimate the tidal wave of white resentment that propelled him into office, the burning desire to blow up the system, to hell with the consequences. I – an urban, educated, cosmopolitan elite – smugly assumed that there was no way people would actually vote for this buffoon, that everyone could see through his circus act the way I did. I devoured websites and listened to podcasts, all produced by urban, educated, cosmopolitan elites, that confirmed this assumption. And so as I watched results begin to pour in Tuesday night, celebratory Boulevardier cocktail in hand, I was supremely confident of the results; doubly so when I saw the first exit polls, which showed a slightly less-white electorate than 2012. “It’s over,” I assured a friend. “She’ll win by six.” She did not win by six. If this is the grieving process, I’m stuck in Kübler-Ross’ stage 2 – anger. There’s plenty to be angry about: the petulant progressives who wrote in Harambe or Jill Stein; FBI director James Comey, whose eleventh-hour intervention almost certainly tipped the election to Trump; cable news, which normalized Trump and hyperventilated over Hillary Clinton’s emails; the Clinton campaign itself, which never landed on an inspiring message and was entirely ignorant of its many blind spots; the 43 percent of registered voters who couldn’t be bothered to get off their asses; the millions of voters who, though they might not be bigots themselves, looked bigotry in the eye and shrugged. There’s also the Electoral College – an 16

undemocratic anachronism that gives outsize power to rural whites at the expense of urban minorities – which, for the second of five presidential elections in which I’ve been eligible to vote, handed the Oval Office to the second-place finisher. I’m also angry at my country, which is somehow less than what I imagined it to be, somehow unable to see through the mountain of bullshit that Trump erected around himself, unable to see through his misogyny or scapegoating of Mexicans and Muslims, unable to see his glaringly empty promises for what they were, unable to recognize that this was a con and they were the marks. I thought we were better than that, smarter than that, more tolerant than that. We are not. I’m angry at myself, too, because as many years as I’ve spent studying and writing about politics, I didn’t see this coming. I completely misread this election and this electorate. And so did a whole bunch of people who are much much smarter than me. We took Trump’s defeat for granted, and now we’ll pay the price. I supported Clinton in the Democratic primary, because I thought she’d make a more effective president than Bernie Sanders (still do), because I wanted to see her finally break that glass ceiling after surviving the political meat-grinder for decades (still admire her for that), and because I thought she’d be more electable. Counterfactuals are too easy; there’s no way to know how Bernie would have withstood an onslaught of negative ads or whether the white working-class Midwestern voters who abandoned Clinton would have rallied to the banner of a Jewish socialist from Vermont. It’s easy, too, to lose perspective: Clinton lost by 1 percentage point or less in Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania; 100,000 votes, total, would have put her in the White House. Moreover, political sci●

A beautiful word

Twelve gifts for the stationery aficionado in your life, from the bullet journal to a Japanese throwback

tationery obsessions always start out innocently enough. It begins when you ditch the regular $2 kitten planner with the plastic wrap for something just a little more expensive, like the Botanicals Notebook Collection from Rifle Paper Co. at Target. From there you go to custom sticky notes, washi tape, DIY rubber stamps, and by the end of it, you’re knee-deep in research for the perfect fountain pen. Planning life is stressful, but on a smooth piece of paper with the right pencil, it’s almost magical. Currently, stationery addicts on Instagram are into bullet journals, an originally minimalistic form of journaling and note-taking that’s been converted into an art form at this point. In this stationery gift guide, we include the basic supplies for bullet journals, cool paper finds and our old friend from Sanrio. (Items without specific sourcing information are available online or at local art supply stores; prices are approximate.)

Staedtler Triplus Fineliner Pens 20-pack, $17.39: Put down the Sharpies and don’t look back. Staedtler’s thin pens virtually don’t bleed, at least not as much as other leading colored pens, making them perfect for bullet journals or making any notes look fantastic.

Telegram Notepad by Kate Spade New York, $12: Scrawl down notes or paint some doodles on this gold-accented notepad featuring a pink telegram design. You won’t be able to send it to anyone, but you can definitely use it to send reminders to your future self. Hello Kitty Sticky Notes, $4, Sanrio: For some of us, the obsession with stationery started decades ago with the iconic Japanese character Hello Kitty. This charming pack of sticky notes features Kitty and her twin Mimmy, and would be a cool nostalgic find for any Sanrio fanatic.

Leuchtturm1917 medium hard covered notebook with dotted paper, $19.50: The best bullet journals use dotted paper, which is available in a Moleskine, but the Leuchtturm1917 includes numbered pages, a table of contents and better paper quality. As an added plus, this notebook can lay flat, which is helpful when you start to put detailed designs on the page.

Faber-Castell 4 PITT artist pens black, $10.58: These India ink pens are acid-free, smudge-proof and water-resistant when dry, making them another great tool for bullet journal enthusiasts. This pack comes with pens in small, fine, medium and bold points.

By Monivette Cordeiro

Hydrangea and Blue Rose Floral Washi Tape, $3.55, from WashiStation on Etsy (etsy.com/shop/washistation): Washi tape is a decorative Japanese paper tape that can make a boring piece of stationery a little more beautiful. Popularized by DIY crafts, washi tape can be found in your local Michaels or Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft stores, but this particular floral version from Washi Station is truly ethereal. 2017 Herb Garden Calendar from Rifle Paper Co., $18: This beautiful calendar from the Winter Park design firm features 12 original illustrations with gold foil accents on the page. It also comes with its own twine for hanging above your desk.

Orlando Neighborhood Map, $40, from Local Love Orlando (local-love-orlando. myshopify.com): An important yet understated aspect for any stationery maniac is creating the perfect environment to get the artistic juices flowing. This locally made poster would hang well on any wall, and $1 of every sale is donated to Rethink Homelessness.

2017 Desktop Planner from Rifle Paper Co., $34: Featuring an illustration of a cute but messy desktop, this planner is small enough to carry comfortably. The inside is minimalistic and gold-accented, with sections for celebrations, notes and important contacts.

“Dot Your I’s” Pencil Pouch Set from Kate Spade New York, $29.95: This cute pencil pouch reminds us of our elementary-school days while also maintaining a chic appeal. Comes with a gold pencil sharpener, small ruler, two striped pencils and an eraser with the words, “to err is human.”

En Route Sticky Notes & To-Do Lists, $12.95: For the wandering-traveler type of stationery lover, this sticky-note pack will help you gallivant through the world with a prepared set of listicles. The hook closure makes it the perfect spot to keep an airplane ticket. orlandoweekly.com

●

Just Sew Sweet Notecard Set by Chronicle Books, $14.99, via ModCloth: Already, there are a lot of beautiful holiday cards and everyday cards in stationery circles, but this quirky set with its vintage look is unique. The cards feature old sewing patterns from McCall’s with a blank inside and sewing sketch envelope. Buy this for the seamstress in your life or as a nice addition to your own collection.

Stuff artists want Tools of the trade for the artist on your gift list By Chris Rodriguez

n the tech side, these are serious tools for designers and artists already established in their practice – not beginners.

Music for the masses T

his is probably one of the easiest years on record to shop for the music obsessive(s) in your life. The vinyl and boxed-set reissue boom continues unabated all along the spectrum from superstore to cult favorite. Music books are a wide-open field, not just about superstars, although this year also saw unexpected superstar autobiographies from Bruce Springsteen and Brian Wilson, and some wild and moving music documentaries (Miss Sharon Jones, Gimme Danger). And if none of those quite work for you, just snatch them up a subscription to TIDAL (Kanye trusts it, shouldn’t you?) or maybe even a gift certificate from a LOCAL music retailer (Park Ave CDs, East West, Rock N’ Roll Heaven, Foundation College Park, Uncle Tony’s Donut Shop have all got your back), all of which have dedicated staff waaaaay more wellversed in music than us. (The aforementioned local stores can order any of these items, if they don’t already have it in stock; all prices are approximate.)

1. Egyptian Lover, Egyptian Lover 1983-1988 (Stones Throw, available as download, 2-CD set or on vinyl, $11.50-$60) Los Angeles electro and hip-hop innovator Egyptian Lover has been an unacknowledged guiding force of rap on the West Coast since the early ’80s, but there’s so much more to his story. EL’s music creates a whole mythos, a whole new world, where the super-smooth yet almost nerdy musician reigns supreme. Listening to these albums, you hear the DNA for so much minimal synth and dance music too.

4. Stevie Nicks, Bella Donna and The Wild Heart (Rhino Records) This year saw deluxe reissues of the first two solo albums from the reigning witch-queen of pop, Stevie Nicks. Stepping out under the not-inconsiderable shadows of Fleetwood Mac’s tangled mythos, Nicks dove headlong into her “ghost nymph” persona (aided by insane amounts of cocaine), but married it to ultra-slick and sleek synth-rock that still sounds weirdly modern today. Songs like “Edge of Seventeen” and “Stand Back” have lost none of their anthemic cyborg thrust. 5. Hard-Core: Life of My Own, by Harley Flanagan (Feral House, 444 pages, $23.95) Harley Flanagan is the ultimate embodiment of the punk ethos and music, with all the many positives and negatives that implies: an NYC hardcore scenester since childhood, founding member of the infamous and influential CroMags, jiu-jitsu instructor and father. This book is a compulsive page-turner. American hardcore in every sense of the word. 6. Psychic TV, Force the Hand of Chance (Angry Love Productions) Once called a “wrecker of civilization,” artist/ musician/aesthete/agitator Genesis Breyer P-Orridge is this close to becoming a cultural institution: art exhibited in prestigious galleries, papers stored at the Tate Britain, subject of a documentary, hell, they’re even a Marc Jacobs model. But all that doesn’t mean that this early piece of music, newly reissued on vinyl, from the post-Throbbing Gristle band-as-mysticalmovement Psychic TV has mislaid any of its grim and somewhat threatening mystique.

3. The Incantations of Daniel Johnston, by Ricardo Cavolo and Scott McClanahan (Two Dollar Radio, 101 pages, $17.95) A beautiful, psychedelically illustrated and heartbreakingly moving tribute to the life of American alternative music’s eternally lost boy and one-man Beatles. McClanahan is a fellow son of West Virginia and captures Johnston’s tragic tale perfectly.

ORLANDO WEEKLY ● NOV. 16-22, 2016

By Matthew Moyer

2. David Bowie Play Book, by Matteo Guarnaccia and Giulia Pivetta (ACC Editions, 96 pages, $29.95) The old truism that “the clothes make the man,” was never more true than in the case of Bowie. More than a mere slave to fashion, though, he created whole personas and lyrical universes out of what he wore. This quirky, oversize tome one-ups “adult coloring books” to present “adult paper-doll books,” wherein you may dress your own Bowies as you please from a dazzling area of actual stagewear.

Sounds of the season for the intent listener in your life

7. Traveling Soul, by Todd Mayfield and Travis Atria (Chicago Review Press, 368 pages, $28.99) Curtis Mayfield defined the concept of musical polymath, wearing innumerable hats – singer, guitarist, producer, label magnate – while never losing an innate sense of human decency. (His defining number, “People Get Ready,” is a permanent monument to that.) This weighty tome, co-written by Mayfield's son, gives the great man the historical reckoning he deserves.

The butcher, the baker, A beautiful word the pizza-pie maker

Twelve gifts for the stationery aficionado in your life, from the Giftsbullet for the budding genius in your life journal to aculinary Japanese throwback By Monivette By Faiyaz Cordeiro Kara

o doubt you have a serious home cook on your shopping list (you know, the one who employs tweezers in plating dinners at home or loves blow-torching expensive cuts of beef ); these days, everybody knows one. It’s with this methodical and meticulous connoisseur in mind that we present the following menu of kitchen gadgets and culinary contrivances for your consideration. (Items without specific sourcing information are available online or in stores; prices are approximate.)

1. Ankarsrum Original Kitchen Machine ($699.95) This durable and powerful all-purpose appliance kneads dough like no other stand mixer out there. With all the additional attachments and accessories, it practically negates the need for a separate food processor, meat grinder or slicer. Lay the mixer on its side and affix the 5-cup-capacity pulverizer, and you won’t need a separate blender either. 2. The Original Baking Steel ($89) The serious home pizzaiolo knows that to make a seriously good pie in your oven, some serious heat needs to be generated, and nothing conducts and transfers heat better than this baking steel. It cooks pizza faster and more evenly than a baking stone, not to mention it’s virtually indestructible. 3. Downtown Grill electric hibachi (downtowngrill.com, $299) I’ve thought of purchasing this indoor grill for times when Mother Nature wreaks havoc on the best-laid grilling plans. Downtown Grill’s electric hibachi has a solid, built-to-last frame and can quick-scorch meat at an impressive 700 degrees. It’s like having a restaurantgrade grill on your kitchen countertop. 4. iSi Gourmet Whip Even those who roll their eyes at the thought of molecular gastronomy will want a nitrous-oxidecharged whipping siphon, like the iSi Gourmet Whip, in their kitchen arsenal to embellish dishes with foams and froths. Plus whipping siphons are also great for creating cold sauces, whipped soups, batters and toppings like, yes, whipped cream. Available in various sizes/prices. 5. Picardie tumblers Maybe it’s the comfortable grip along the ridges, or the timeless styling, but there’s just something about these iconic tempered-glass tumblers that makes sipping (and serving) everything from water to lattes to spritzes all the more enjoyable. Plus, they add a certain je ne sais quoi

to any Francophile’s table setting. Available basically everywhere in a range of prices. 6. Knife set by Michel Bras/Kai (Williams-Sonoma, $2,155-$3,080) The set of knives developed by legendary French chef Michel Bras and Japanese blade forger Kai aren’t just well-made utilitarian cutters – they’re works of art. Since acquiring a 3-inch sheep’s-foot paring knife and a 6-inch santoku knife last year, I’ve covetously eyed the other titanium-coated, matte-finished and pakkawood-handled blades in the set. 7. Globe PF10E Electric Deep Fryer ($351) A grade above the standard deep fryers marketed specifically for home use, this heavy-duty, stainless-steel countertop fryer with a 10-pound capacity can sizzle 10 pounds of fries per hour, frozen to finish. Best of all, clean-up is a cinch with its lift-out fryer pot.

8 9 2

8. Mandoline by Michel Bras/Kai (Williams-Sonoma, $249.95) If you’ve got a deep fryer, then a great mandoline, like this beaut from Michel Bras and Kai, lets you waffle-cut, crinkle-cut and julienne your vegetables (not just potatoes!) before frying. Its Japanese steel frame, sturdy rubberized kickstand and crazy-sharp blades make it worth the cost. More than likely, it’ll be the only mandoline you’ll ever buy. 9. Mellow Immersion Circulator (cookmellow.com; $399) If you’re tired of going the cheapo sous-vide route like me (pot full of simmering water + meat sealed in a freezer bag + thermometer), then Mellow, a soon-to-be-released immersion circulator for the home market, is for you. It has its own refrigeration system, its own self-sealing bags, and its own weight sensor. Just place the food in the bag, drop it in Mellow, then use the app to specify what you’re cooking as well as when and how you want it done.

Florida Insignia pins by Secret Society Goods, $8 each, secretsocietygoods.com It’s hard to pick just one from Orlando-based Secret Society’s fantastic selection of lapel pins, but the solid rose gold of the finely crafted Florida badge is an especially nice touch. 2.

’s Other people A beautiful word kitchens

hy do we still love cookbooks, when we don’t need them? It’s true that all you need is access to the internet if all you’re looking for is a recipe for Korean fried chicken. But the best cookbooks do more than collect recipes; they engender trust, they teach us basic principles, and much of the time, they’re windows into dazzling other worlds. Brillat-Savarin’s famous aphorism (“Tell me what you eat, and I will tell you what you are”) holds especially true for cookbooks that are personality-driven, like the ones we’ve chosen here, rather than tied to a restaurant (like 2016’s excellent Mozza at Home or Eataly), a dish (tacos, cookies) or a cooking method (like grilling or slow cookers … always with the damn slow cookers). These eight books offer glimpses into wholly unique points of view. (Note: Online booksellers have distorted pricing so much that we won’t list prices or sources here; follow your conscience and buy where you will.)

8 this season than any other.) And, fortunately, it lives up to the hype, offering a tart and sunny repository of vegetable cookery in a well-designed volume. 5. Small Victories: Recipes, Advice + Hundreds of Ideas for Home Cooking Triumphs, by Julia Turshen (Chronicle Books, 306 pages) Is your gift recipient new to the kitchen, or just interested in thoughtful new ways to problemsolve? Turshen’s Small Victories is a like cool drink of water, a treasury of calm, soothing wisdom.

2. A Super Upsetting Cookbook About Sandwiches, by Tyler Kord (Clarkson Potter, 192 pages) Tyler Kord is like your weirdest, most brilliant friend, the one who comes up with completely bizarre systems for everyday processes that turn out to make everything better. If the person you’re buying for likes sandwiches (and who doesn’t?) and out-of-the-box thinking (not everyone does), this is the book for them.

6. Cravings: Recipes for All the Food You Want to Eat, by Chrissy Teigen (Random House, 240 pages) OK, OK, hear me out. I know: Chrissy Teigen, of Sports Illustrated and Twitter fame? But this is truly the perfect book to turn to for potlucks, family gatherings and office parties. Is it basic? Totally. Is it incredibly useful? Absolutely. Are there some tasty bites to be had? You better believe it.

3. Molly on the Range: Recipes and Stories From an Unlikely Life on a Farm, by Molly Yeh (Rodale, 304 pages) A Jewish-Chinese Brooklynite with a fondness for junk food (Lunchables, Dunkaroos) is transplanted to a sugar-beet farm on the North DakotaMinnesota border. Hilarity – and a whole new way of looking at life, cooking and eating – ensues in this gloriously inclusive and utterly distinctive book based on the popular blog My Name Is Yeh.

7. Dalí: Les Dîners de Gala, by Salvador Dalí (Taschen, 320 pages) Taschen’s reprint of this most-sought-after classic answered years of fervent prayers from collectors unwilling to pay upward of $350 for even a tattered old copy. Grotesque, erotic, fantastic. 8. Regarding Cocktails, by Sasha Petraske and Georgette Moger-Petraske (Phaidon, 256 pages) The tragically early death of Sasha Petraske, a founder of modern mixology, is hardly softened by this book – it only makes it clear how much more he would have had to say and teach. However, as a last testament (the book was finished by his wife), it’s a gorgeous piece of work and a fascinating look inside a beautiful mind.

4. The Love and Lemons Cookbook: An Appleto-Zucchini Celebration of Impromptu Cooking, by Jeanine Donofrio (Avery, 320 pages) Another cookbook based on a beloved blog, Love and Lemons is just behind Everything I Want to Eat in this year’s horse race for most anticipated cookbook.

1. Everything I Want to Eat: Sqirl and the New California Cooking, by Jessica Koslow (Abrams Books, 280 pages) This is the killer of the bunch. In last year’s holiday cookbook guide, I wished for more local restaurants to emulate Sqirl; now I have the bible to re-create that magic at home. A gorgeous document of a magical and deceptively simple restaurant.

Coping mechanisms How to survive the contentious holiday season by maintaining a mid-level BAC at all times

By Thaddeus McCollum

ake no mistake: This holiday season is going to be rough. Post-election holidays are always fraught with the potential for shouting matches and insults being thrown across the dinner table, but the aftermath of Trump’s … victory? Is that the word we’re using? – has shown just how little common ground exists between you and your Baby Boomer uncle Charlie (or your Millennial cousin Kayla or whatever). You’re gonna need a drink. Put these items on your wishlist so that the people who care about you can make sure you get through the holidays without trying to off yourself with an electric turkey fryer. Or indulge in a little selfishness like the other half of the electorate, and buy them for yourself.

1. Corkcicle Chillsner Beer Chiller, $29.95 per pair, corkcicle.com The Corkcicle seems like kind of a gag gift that you might get for someone who’s known to hit the wine a little frequently: a metal “icicle” that you freeze and then plunge down the neck of a bottle of wine to keep it cool. But hey, rosé doesn’t taste good warm, and they work. Corkcicle now makes a beer bottlesized version called the Chillsner. They come in a pack of two, and if you drink as fast as we do, that should be enough to get you through a whole room-temp sixer without having to resort to the wet paper towel trick. 2. Death Before Craft Beer can glass set, $19 per pair, thevnm.com Yes, craft beer can get you drunk faster than good old domestic brews, but with those high ABVs and a higher price point, you’re not going to be able to maintain the midlevel buzz you’re gonna need to get yourself through to next year if you stick with the fancy stuff. The VNM, local designers of proudly lowbrow apparel and accessories, have you covered with these can-shaped 16-ounce glasses that let you proudly display your preference for the tried-and-true cheap stuff. Warning: will not stop your shitty Tea Party sister-in-law from calling you an “elitist.” 36

3. Quench Products Bar10der, $29.99, quenchproducts.com Once your mom’s neighbor starts talking about how people against Trump need to show him respect, ignoring the behavior of congressional Republicans over the past eight years, you might need to start hitting the hard stuff. If you have this multitool handy, you’ll be able to keep your hands busy juicing citrus, zesting lemon peel, opening bottles, popping corks, and doing anything else you might need to do to keep from throwing your hands up and walking out of the Christmas Eve party. Plus, the paring knife can be used to discourage unwanted attention from anyone who thinks that they have a right to touch you inappropriately. 4. Alcomate Revo, $219.95, alcomate.net Perhaps the only thing more dangerous than getting into a political discussion this holiday season is getting into a car. The Alcomate Revo, a pocket-sized breathalyzer, has the capability of saving yours or someone you care about’s life. About the size of a phone, the Revo works exactly how you think it does: power it on, blow into the disposable mouthpiece until it clicks, then read the digital display to get an idea of how schwasted you are (or someone else is). Then steal that guy’s keys and make him sleep on the couch, because just because you voted for Jill Stein doesn’t mean we want you dead, Dave.

REMAIN IN LIGHT The mystical legacy of Joan of Arc comes to the Bach Festival in an exalting multimedia mashup BY EST EB AN M ENESES

he mysticism, resolve and militant tenacity of Joan of Arc blazes as ardently as ever, even 600 years after she was consumed alive by flames at the behest of the cruel clergymen who ordered her execution as a heretic. In those six centuries the illiterate teenager who heard voices has inspired paintings and sculptures, books and plays, music and movies. The medium of film, especially, has done much to rekindle the mythos of the Maid of Orléans, the peasant girl whose steadfast belief in her religious visions led her from the small farming village of Domrémy to the head of an army fighting for her cause. There are many, but no film has done better justice to what we know about Joan, especially her trial and execution – verbatim transcripts from the trial survive – than Carl Theodor Dreyer’s 1928 silent film The Passion of Joan of Arc. The original cut of the film was lost in a warehouse fire, but another print was discovered in 1981 and immediately acknowledged as a masterpiece. With its extreme close-ups and jarring camera angles, The Passion is a showcase for the French stage actress Renée Maria Falconetti (left) in the title role, in her remarkable single film appearance. Fast-forward 60 years from Dreyer’s tour de force to 1988: New York-based composer Richard Einhorn happened upon a still from The Passion of Joan of Arc at the Museum of Modern Art and requested a screening of the film. Completely absorbed by Falconetti’s searing performance, he immediately set to work on a narrative choral piece based on Joan and the film. The result was Voices of Light, a 1994 opera-oratorio hybrid and CONTINUED ON PAGE 72

conceivably a soundtrack to Dreyer’s film that poetically dramatizes Joan’s imprisonment, trial and judgment. Featuring 110 voices from the Bach Festival Choir, 25 orchestra members, and a screen stretching the entire breadth of the chancel around the altar of Knowles Memorial Chapel, the Bach Festival presents two performances of Voices of Light this weekend, with a full screening of The Passion of Joan of Arc in sync with Einhorn’s score. A composer of opera, song cycles, dance scores, and orchestral, chamber, and film music, Einhorn didn’t intend necessarily to create a soundtrack to the silent film, but rather a “response to the movie that had the same artistic sensibility and integrity that Dreyer brought to it,” he says in a phone interview from his New York City apartment. The composition process involved breaking the film down into 15 scenes; although each movement lasts the length of a scene in the film, the musical narrative has a direction of its own. This is the reason each can be appreciated separately, though the combined live performance makes for a spellbinding experience. From Australia to Europe, and across the United States, it has been performed more than 200 times. This Bach Festival Society production – underwritten by GladdeningLight, a nonprofit that explores the intersection between spirituality and art – will be its Central Florida premiere. “I feel like Joan is a model for the 21st century,” says GladdeningLight founding director Randall Robertson. “People of all ages should look to her as a genderchallenging, patriarchy-defying historical figure. This is a woman in the 15th century who stood up not only to men but to power, and approached her mission with a powerful sense of purpose and virtue.” Robertson first experienced the film and score on a GladdeningLight weekend trip to Washington, D.C., in 2014 with colleagues from around the country. Soon after witnessing the performance at the National Cathedral, he contacted Einhorn to discuss the prospect of bringing Voices to Orlando. The performances will be conducted by Bach Festival artistic director John Sinclair, who studied the score upon Robertson’s proposal and responded enthusiastically in the affirmative. With a libretto crafted by the composer, consisting of writings by female medieval mystics and excerpts from Joan’s letters (she dictated to a scribe), Voices leans more on emotion than action. “The idea of adding the letters came later in the structuring of the piece,” Einhorn says. “I realized that Joan had to have a special sound, so that 72

everybody would recognize her. That’s when I came up with the idea of having a medieval chant-like sound for her voice.” Joan is represented by a quartet of female voices of different register, singing in unison. “We don’t know what she sounded like,” Einhorn says, “so rather than make her a soprano or an alto, I made her both, singing in a very simple syllabic style, reflecting Joan’s directness with which she looked at the world and God.”

oices of Light changed Einhorn’s life. “It was really amazing, it never happened before or since,” he reflects. The score caught like wildfire following its 1994 Northampton, Massachusetts, premiere and the largescale Brooklyn Academy of Music follow-up performance in 1995. It’s inspired by medieval music, particularly the motet. This one-syllable-per-note vocal style is “very unusual and very simple, which was a very conscious [choice],” Einhorn says. Einhorn was also curious about juxtaposing the wispy, unusual sound of the viola da gamba with the medieval chants to create a uniquely spiritual atmosphere. The gamba, a 15th-century fretted string instrument, is more closely related to the lute and guitar than to the violin family. For ●

BY SETH KUBERSKY UPTON ABBEY: AN IMPROVISED COMEDY OF ENGLISH MANORS | PHOTO COURTESY ANNIE RUSSELL THEATRE

With our long national election

nightmare over, and an even longer reign of terror about to begin, I’m tempted to find a TARDIS and teleport myself a continent or a century away from Florida 2016. But if you imagine that post-Edwardian England, setting of a certain celebrated PBS soap opera, would be a safe place to escape raging political debates over gender roles, health care and workers’ rights, Upton Abbey: An Improvised Comedy of English Manors will disabuse you of that notion. The full-length extemporized production currently playing Rollins College’s Annie Russell Theatre is packed with humor that will appeal to Downton devotees. But as creator-director David Charles shared prior to a dress rehearsal, he knew long before last week’s historic election that the still-relevant issues underlying the show’s World War I setting deserved some deep-dive dramaturgy. “The idea germinated at the end of last year. We’re always looking for shows that can feature our incredibly talented women, and we were looking at a season about the election process and what it is to be a citizen. It’s also looking at the role of women, an increasing understanding of sexuality, and class warfare – all things that we might be fighting for again.” That’s why Charles assembled a team of 12 students who spent the summer not just watching episodes of Julian Fellowes’ series, but delving into the rapidly changing foods, fashions and faiths of early-20th-century British nobility. Grace Zottig, a researcher and stage manager, said they used the biography of Lady Almina Carnarvon, fifth countess of Highclere Castle (filming location of Downton Abbey) as a foundation, and used her life to inspire some of the characters. They supplemented that with other references mostly found in “actual books,” as opposed to online searches, that

Upton Abbey sates your Downton cravings in a timely improvised show examining class warfare, evolving sexuality and the changing roles of women informed the characters’ backstories. The choice of the year 1918 (coinciding with Season 2 of Downton Abbey) as a setting was equally deliberate. “It’s at the height of the war,” Charles explains. “The trench atrocities had become widely known at that point … meanwhile, we sit on this beautiful estate. There’s a juxtaposition that gives us opportunities for comedy, but we try not to be too shy about digging into some of the deeper issues at play as well.” All this would be rich enough material for a scripted plot, but weaving it into one that is improvised on the spot during every performance – with audience members picking plot points and featured characters through internet voting pre-show and during intermission – sounds nigh impossible. “We’re all taking a leap of faith,” Charles admits, calling the production an “experiment.” The research helps keep the ad libs from going off the rails: “These characters are really fleshed out. … There’s a structure that helps us, but it’s like a skeleton.” Charles’ company is able to rise to the challenge with the help of training provided by his Rollins Improv Players, a 13-year-old troupe that performs 30 to 35 times per year. Under his direction, Charles says the college has earned a reputation for educating improvisers. “I was just at an international conference talking about this kind of work, one of a few people invited. It’s certainly unique.” The

backstage technicians must be as sharp as the actors onstage, using a secret system to stay one step ahead of the story and prepare scene changes that unfold effortlessly on each impromptu punchline. Speaking for all the technical disciplines, Charles says he thinks “they both dread and are tickled by these improv shows, because they know it’s not business as usual.” With 15 “upstairs” characters and 15 “downstairs” characters, and each actor playing one of each and changing between them on the fly, first-time mainstage costume designer Katie Stine faced daunting questions like, “How am I going to get someone from a wheelchair-bound man to a soldier fighting on the front lines in 45 seconds?” Thirty period costumes could break any budget; luckily Rollins’ costume shop supplied a surplus of not-quite-right remnants as raw materials that Stine repurposed: “I call it a Cinderella story. I take costumes that are similar to what I’m looking for, and completely rework them, which tends to be cheaper.” A favorite piece is a beaded pink evening dress that used to be a “ridiculous” 1960s cocktail dress. As if Upton Abbey weren’t ambitious enough already, the story will also progress serially from one performance to the next, with decisions made in earlier episodes impacting the finale. “If you come opening [night], and come again for the seventh show, you’re not going to be lost,” Charles concludes. “The hope is that we can appeal both to the one-time viewer who’s just dipping in for a visit, but also by show eight this world is going to be different; characters are going to be changed, secrets will upend relationships.” The rehearsal act I observed left me impressed, so if you’re still missing the Grantham family’s antics, make arrangements to see Upton Abbey now; you can’t binge-watch this one on Netflix at your leisure. skubersky@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

Reflecting the culinary traditions of Florida old and new, 1921 by Norman Van Aken dazzles with art, decor and menu focusing on the flora and fauna of the Sunshine State, like dumplings filled with mousse of spiny lobster and rock shrimp in a country ham dashi. Pan-roasted duck breast with mole poblano is staggeringly good, as is whole Cape Canaveral white shrimp, Anson Mills grits and a fosse of spiced ’nduja vinaigrette and ramp butter spiked with pickled gooseberries.

bastion of collegians attending UCF and Full Sail. Fair warning: The place can get packed pretty quickly, but if you snag a table, take advantage and order the oversized “king pho” bowl with as beefy a broth as you’ll ever slurp. While bao and spring rolls are serviceable, the rice bowl with crispy tofu and the banh mi are surefire options. 7581 University Blvd., Winter Park, 407-636-6069; $

DOVECOTE It’s hard to find a clunker on this downtown brasserie’s menu of approachable French cuisine, whether you’re downing starters like French onion soup (a specialty), tomato-water risotto or Vietnamese seafood stew, or entrees like steak frites, moules frites or vermouth-braised pork cheeks. Partake in their progressive cocktail program, or enjoy one of the many French wines offered by the glass. 390 N. Orange Ave., 407-930-1700; $$$$

PIZZA BRUNO Arguably Orlando’s most popular and buzzed-about pizzeria entices with “neo-Neapolitan” pies: fermented dough and creative flavor combinations fired in a Ferrari-red Pavesi oven (it’s a beaut). Traditionalists can have a field day here, for sure, but the adventurous can employ such ingredients as hot honey, charred peaches, blueberries, maple syrup and the like on their fast-blistered pizzas. Garlic knots with “too much garlic” are practically a must – enjoy them with the ricotta meatballs prior to pie-eating. Online ordering was just added for those who’d rather not eat in. 3990 Curry Ford Road, 407-906-8547; $$

TR FIRE GRILL Upscale American bistro that feels like a chain restaurant but isn’t one (well, not yet – it’s the test space for a concept by Romacorp, the Orlando-based owner of the Tony Roma’s rib chain). Share sangria muddled with local fruits, then order the brilliant oven-baked pizza dip. Entrees can be hit-or-miss, though we loved our “zoodles,” but the Chocolate Mayhem dessert is enough for a group or for one broken heart. 1035 N. Orlando Ave., Winter Park, 407-708-3600; $$

THE PARKVIEW While not as sprawling a space as the Wine Room, nor as packed as Luma, the Parkview has the unpretentious, comfortable air that its neighboring Park Avenue haunts don’t. Plus, the menu goes well beyond the tried-and-true charcuterie and cheese plates to create highly edible pairings – roasted bone marrow, braised beet carpaccio and more – to match an intriguing selection of wines.

sion to legalize gay marriage.) In doing so, Nichols makes us privy to the social dynamic of Richard and Mildred’s family, almost all of whom are readily accepting of his unabashed love for Mildred. It also leads to an interesting conversation late in the film in which it’s pointed out that Richard ironically wants to be black, while (to paraphrase) many blacks at this time wish they were white. Edgerton is superb as Richard, a hardworking, dedicated and loving man who does whatever he can to make his wife happy, even when it endangers them both. He doesn’t say much, but Edgerton effectively conveys an inner strength that never allows us to doubt the solidarity of the marriage. As Mildred, Negga is similarly quiet, but Mildred is also smarter than Richard, and realizes the press can be an asset in helping them live freely in Virginia, so she makes use of it when it’s advantageous to them. She also pulls the strings in the house; he may be the breadwinner, but Negga’s calm and assured demeanor leaves no doubt that Mildred’s the one making the big decisions. Nichols specializes in suburban dramas (Take Shelter, Shotgun Stories) that allow the acting and screenplay to carry the load. To be sure, that’s the case in Loving as well, and it is a solid drama – but you can’t help but wish at least some of it was depicted in a more dynamic and interesting way. film@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

FANTASTIC BEASTS AND WHERE TO FIND THEM | PHOTO COURTESY WARNER BROS.

BY STE V E S C H N E I D E R Bleed for This Talk about being a glutton for

punishment. Rhode Island prizefighter Vinny “the Pazmanian Devil” Pazienza broke his neck in a car accident that left him unable to walk – and all he wanted to do was get right back in the ring. His coach, Kevin Rooney (Aaron Eckhart), helped bring about that miracle within the space of a single year, all the while failing to inform Pazienza that he had the most awkward nickname in sports history. Writer-director Ben Younger hasn’t made a movie since 2005’s underrated Prime – thus disappointing those of us who were hoping for a prequel, Subprime – but the initial critical response to his return is promising: The Hollywood Reporter notes approvingly that star Miles Teller is at one point seen in a thong, which may be why Rex Reed called the picture “compelling.” (R) The Edge of Seventeen This high-school char-

acter study has drawn positive comparisons to everything from John Hughes to Juno to Fast Times at Ridgemont High – and that’s pretty appropriate, since teenagers are used to having their successes compared to those of old farts they’ve never even heard of. Hailee Steinfeld plays a junior-year misfit who searches for coping strategies when her brother starts sleeping with her best friend. Praising the film for its realism, Indiewire’s David Ehrlich says the story “unfold[s] like a symphony of small humiliations.” No, David: That’s my fucking life. (Did I sound Juno enough for ya?) (R) Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them J.K.

I’m concerned. Warner Bros. seems to agree, having allowed Rowling for the first time to adapt her own work in the form of Fantastic Beasts, a story that predates Harry Potter’s by some 70 years. The movie was announced as the first installment in a filmic trilogy, but by last month, the number of planned chapters had been upped to five. Gee, if this gravy train keeps on rolling, Rowling is only going to be a thousandaire one of these days. j/k, J.K.! (PG-13) Gimme Danger If you only know “Search and Destroy” because you heard it in an Audi commercial, this documentary will put you on better footing with folks who got turned on to it by Nike 20 years ago. Learn the complete, unexpurgated story of the seminal Iggy and the Stooges – or at least, as complete and unexpurgated as one can get when dealing with a band that plied its trade long before bringing cameras into a concert hall was totally jake. Animated re-creations and verbal reminiscences by the always-entertaining Iggy himself are said to pick up the slack of sporadic archival footage. Or maybe we’re all being punked, and when we get to the theater, we’ll find out it’s really a doc about Harvey Danger. (NR) Nocturnal Animals Two signs that awards season is in full swing: No. 1, the characters in movies read books; No. 2, Amy Adams is in everything. Here, she plays an art gallery owner who has to reflect on her past when her ex-husband sends her the manuscript to his new novel – an unsettling tale that’s predicated on rape and murder.

Considering his choices, Gucci Mane was no stranger to trouble. According to an article on DJBooth.net, Davis was arrested and sent to police custody on no less than 10 separate occasions between 2005 and 2013. His charges ranged from simple possession to aggravated assault. He said to XXL’s editor-in-chief, “During that time, I was just toxic.” Despite his reckless behavior in his day-to-day life, calculated moves in his dealings within the music industry led him to kick-start the careers of many superstar artists. He invested early in the careers of Young Thug, Waka Flocka Flame and Nicki Minaj, all multimillion-dollar artists today. The life caught up to the artist, though, and in 2013, Radric Davis was sentenced to three years in prison on felony assault charges, stemming from an infamous altercation between Gucci and a fan.

THE ETERNAL Legendary bass guitarist lays claim to his creative legacy with a live set of the best of Joy Division and New Order BY MATTHEW WELLER

Oh, and now Leonard Cohen, too? It’s official, 2016 is the abyss.

THE BEAT

Miami’s pride Jacuzzi Boys (Nov. 6, Will’s Pub) have come a long way from their auspicious punk beginnings. Now, the kids are made men, Iggy Popendorsed national players who’ve found their groove on one of the most strapping and identifiable sonic signatures out there. It’s next-level garage rock that takes the heart of punk, grooms it with textural sophistication and rolls it out on a more concentrated wavelength. But punks need not sweat. Though those roots have become more latent on their recordings, they’re still very much alive, primary even, in concert. And their brandnew album, Ping Pong ( just released on Nov. 11 on their own new label, Mag Mag Records), injects some new force into their kick. Speaking of getting made, it looks like openers the Sh-Booms are finally getting some dues and making some moves themselves. The powerhouse Orlando soul crew have just begun working with Limited Fanfare Records & Management (Lil Daggers, Heavy Drag) in Miami for management and Rollo Grady Music (Natural Child, Pujol, Futurebirds) in L.A. for licensing, so their stars appear to be aligning in some significant ways. More on them soon in our big local music issue on Nov. 30. Also beginning to build up some real street buzz of their own are local goth ragers Autarx, who are a very fresh voice in punk, possibly the freshest in the city right now. Their sound and mien are intriguingly theatrical and crazed, but behind it

Autarx’s sound and mien are intriguingly theatrical and crazed – going from nervy intensity to harrowing fury, even closing with some beautiful melody. all is a deeply dimensional sound capable of considerable range – going from nervy intensity to harrowing fury to even closing with some beautiful melody. This is one to watch. Finally, there was Ft. Lauderdale surfpunk band Octo Gato, who are a bunch of goofs. With enough campy nautical motifs to look like a cheap seafood restaurant exploded onstage, they’re almost an SNL skit. Yes, of course, there was a beach ball in play. And their stage presence won’t make you take them any more seriously. But it’s not like this is prog-rock or anything. Fuck that. This is decent party music played with competence and humor. For their first and only Florida date, 4AD/Glassnote band Daughter (Nov. 9, the Beacham) debuted in Orlando. And apparently, a whole legion of people has been in wait for this because the historical occasion was met with a thirsty and robust reception. The London act identifies as a folk band, though that heritage is vague because their underpinning is really the kind of folk born only of contemporary indie

abstraction. The result, especially once all their considerable hallmark embellishments come into play, is a stylish brand of drama-pop. There’s a twilit minimalism at its heart that leverages mood and relief. But when the music strikes, it can be oceanic with swells of guitar, drums and electronics. Add to that the presence and serious-ass lyrics of frontwoman Elena Tonra and things get thick. Although Daughter’s music is often more atmosphere than resolution, it played effectively in a show with a professional stage production of appropriate lighting and projections that connected the dots and drove it all home. If anything, the band proved the power of monolithic restraint when done with purpose. A similar gentle-but-big dynamic goes for young support act Vancouver Sleep Clinic, which is the vehicle of Tim Bettinson, an artist not actually from up north but rather Down Under, map be damned. Just as momentous as Daughter’s, this Orlando debut was part of the band’s first tour of North America. Bettinson may ride the tender frequency in the modern tide of ether-breathing crooners with his fragile, ghostly falsetto, but he’s no window-gazing whisperer. This guy’s got clear widescreen pop ambition, often streaking the canvas in grand sweeps and scaling crescendos. Though his music is slow, indie-ish bedroom pop at its core, he and his full band render it with impressive scale and color it with modern flourishes of R&B and electronic. It’s soft, straight and earnest but solid and epic. baolehuu@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

Jingle Eve EVENTS

For those of you already ironing out those ugly Christmas sweaters and eyeing that perfect spot in your house for the Christmas tree, look no further than Ivanhoe Village’s iconic launch to the holiday season. The annual Jingle Eve festival and boat parade is back in perfect time to really jingle your bells and get you in the holiday spirit. Join the Ivanhood in the lighting of Orlando’s Happy Holidays sign overlooking Lake Ivanhoe and the tree lighting in Gaston Edwards Park. Carolers will stroll along the streets singing your favorite tunes throughout Santa’s village, and Santa himself will be in attendance, providing some prime photo opportunities for this year’s Christmas cards. Pedi-cabs will be available throughout the evening, making it a breeze to see the entire festival, but don’t forget to tip your drivers. Tim’s Wine Market also sponsors an optional wine walk, with pours available at multiple stops throughout the neighborhood. – Aileen Perilla

OPERA

Let’s see. A wealthy blowhard decides he wants to grab himself a young, beautiful woman, and he breaks financial promises made to his impoverished nephew in order to get what he wants. What does this remind us of? Hmmm … anyway, Donizetti’s Don Trump, er, Pasquale is in the humorous, all’s-well-that-ends-well opera buffa tradition – a style that Opera Orlando has proven it’s mastered with its uproarious April mashup of Mozart’s The Impresario and Poulenc’s Les Mamelles de Tiresias. Frankly, after the past week we are feeling more Don Giovanni – specifically, the Commendatore-drags-your-ass-to-hell part – than Don Pasquale, and oddly enough, the reborn opera company presents that very show in March. But in the meantime, let’s yuk it up with this “most luscious of comedies,” starring massively impressive basso buffo Peter Strummer as Pasquale. What the hell, fate has made beggars of us all. – Jessica Bryce Young

Pygmalion Mad Cow Theatre has been through some rough patches in the past month regarding its financial situation and paying its artists, but it has since tried to undergo a makeover by paying everyone it owes by Dec. 1. A lot of people don’t feel comfortable supporting Mad Cow, which is understandable. But if you’d like to contribute to their efforts toward getting those checks out, come see their other makeover involving Eliza Doolittle, Henry Higgins and the cast of Pygmalion for a holiday classic this weekend. This timeless piece from George Bernard Shaw involves the metamorphosis of a Cockney flower girl into a fancy lady, not through the use of Sephora products, but by improving her pronunciation, if you can believe it. Here’s to transformations we can get behind! – Monivette Cordeiro

Can we make punk gross again? Australia’s Straight Arrows are sure as fuck giving it a try. Dispensing with any of the sonic signifiers of your usual pogo fodder, the Arrows have been trawling the same slimy furrows as bands like White Fence, the Sonics and Thee Headcoats since 2010, touring relentlessly and gaining the notice of go-to filth peddlers like Hozac and Total Punk in the process. They’re currently risking life and limb here in the U.S., showing off songs from their new psyched-out album, Rising. There will be plenty of punk and hardcore bands in the coming weeks, months and (yeah) years who will have plenty to say about the state we’re in, but this Saturday, the Arrows, along with Golden Pelicans, Gino and the Goons, and the Secret Tracers, are going to wallow in negative sickness and the accidental, glorious happiness that comes from hearing loud music in a room full of weirdos. – Matthew Moyer

Hop out of the lazy couch-potato state you normally lapse into on weekends and head to Sanford to see tricked-out couches in fast motion. Downtown Sanford’s West End Trading Co. hosts this annual event where local workers race their asses off as they push their pimped-out rides to the finish line. Multiple rounds feature one couch against another as tipsy participants race for bragging rights and a sense of accomplishment. For spectators, there will be plenty of beer, wine, spirits and grub from West End. A local market will also be nearby full of goodies to help you remember this glorious event. If you want to go all out, VIP is an option with premium viewing areas, complimentary drinks and the chance to meet the racing teams. Oh, and bathrooms.

Tatsuya Nakatani and Kawabata Makoto MUSIC

Psychedelic rock is not a Pink Floyd boxed set as big as a suitcase that retails for around $500, nor is it the pleasing-to-the-ear but still somewhat diluted pop hybrids created by the likes of Of Montreal and Flaming Lips. Psych rock, at its essence, should be underground, ritualistic, a mess of hair, sweat, strange sights and stranger sounds all merging into a LOUD and transcendent whole. If you think we’re being needlessly difficult and cranky, please accept our cordial invitation to watch two modern masters of neu-avant-psych put on a rare collaborative show for free in an intimate gallery space. Actually, to call it just a “show” does somewhat of a disservice to the singular skills of Tatsuya Nakatani and Kawabata Makoto. Nakatani is a hard-touring experimental drummer par excellence, whose skills and jaw-dropping array of percussion PHOTO BY MAKOTO TAKEUCHI instruments pretty much make him a one-man drumline (and then some). Kawabata Makoto is freak royalty: guitarist and guru for veteran Japanese psych lunatics Acid Mothers Temple. Separately, either of them playing Orlando would be an event. Together, this will be a sonic journey. – MM 7 p.m. | The Gallery at Avalon Island, 39 S. Magnolia Ave. | 407-317-8367 | avalongallery.org | donations encouraged

MUSIC

Official living legend and alleged Nobel Prize-shunner Bob Dylan plays the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts tonight, and amazingly, as of press time, tickets were still available. In his more than five decades of stardom, Dylan has explored styles ranging from folk to rock to electric blues to gospel (though lately he’s also been thinkin’ ’bout Alicia Keys). The singer-songwriter who contributed such classics as “The Times They Are a-Changin’,” “Like a Rolling Stone,” “Blowin’ in the Wind” and “Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door” to the American songbook has been named to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame; has won a Pulitzer, a Golden Globe, an Academy Award and 13 Grammys; and was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom (plus, after he finally called Sweden following a two-week silence, the Nobel Prize for literature). Backed by a constantly changing lineup, Dylan has toured steadily since the 1980s on what some have dubbed the “Never Ending Tour.” It’s probably not your absolute last chance to see him, but there can’t be many left. – JBY 8 p.m. | Walt Disney Theater, Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts, 445 S.

Music Mondays: A Fat Wreck FILM

We’ve gotten used to taking music for granted. At least back in the day you had to run to the store and unwrap a jewel case that felt like it was packaged to survive a rocket launch to Andromeda before you were forced to peruse a booklet full of selfcongratulatory liner notes about “how much work we’ve put into this album” and the hairdressers and tour managers they “couldn’t have done it without.” In the click-tolisten era, A Fat Wreck is a reminder of the hard work, disappointment and risk it takes to run a small record label that would eventually have its logo stamped on the back of albums across America. NOFX lead singer Fat Mike and his then-girlfriend Erin Burkett founded Fat Wreck Chords, a place where they could independently sign and nurture like-minded people, in 1990. Now, after a distribution deal with a Sony imprint and Rise Against albums to their name, Fat Wreck Chords – who to this day boast about not being affiliated with the RIAA – seek to make their mark in the arena of puppet-driven rockumentaries. Yeah, we don’t know either. Our guess is you’ll just have to watch it and tell us. – Adam Manno 9:30 p.m. | Enzian Theater, 1300 S. Orlando Ave., Maitland | 407-629-0054 | enzian.org | $11

B Y D A N S AVA G E

I’m a longtime fan – reader and listener – and part of the 47 percent of white women who did NOT vote for Donald Trump. To say I’m disappointed, horrified, scared and mad about the election is woefully insufficient. I donated $100 to Planned Parenthood this morning because I honestly felt like there was nothing else I could do. That being said, I wanted to share that I had one of the most weirdly charged, hottest and sexiest orgasms. A little buzzed (dealing with those election results) and sad, my boyfriend and I turned to each other for consolation. One thing led to another, and before I knew it, we were fucking as Trump came on the TV to give his acceptance speech. As that orange blowhard spewed more bullshit about being our president, I rode my boyfriend’s big, beautiful dick until I came. It was the perfect way to say, “Fuck this. Now fuck me.” I encourage all your readers to fuck out the stress from this election. Yes, we should donate and volunteer and speak up and protest and vote and not give up hope, but we should also keep doing it and taking care of each other. Because love trumps hate, and fucking trumps … well, I’m not sure what fucking trumps. But it sure makes life better. Justifiably Unsettled Lass Intensely Emoting It’s important to practice good self-care in the wake of a traumatic event –this election qualifies as a traumatic event – and going by the definition of self-care at GoodTherapy. org, fucking the living shit out of someone qualifies as self-care: “Actions that an individual might take in order to reach optimal physical and mental health … Selfcare [includes] activities that an individual engages in to relax or attain emotional well-being, such as meditating, journaling or visiting a counselor.” They’re too polite over at GoodTherapy. org to include “fucking the shit out of someone” on their list of examples, JULIE, but what you did on election night – which just so happens to be the exact same thing I did on election night – certainly meets all the criteria. And if anyone out there who did the same on election night – fucked the shit out of someone – is feeling the least bit guilty, please know that millions of Americans did the exact same thing after 9/11. We used a different term to describe all that post-9/11 fucking: “terror-sex,” which New York magazine defined as “urgent, unguarded, endof-the-world coitus inspired by that day’s sudden jolt of uncertainty and fear.” I want to thank you for writing, JULIE, and I want to second your recommendation: Sex, partnered or solo, makes life better – and people shouldn’t feel guilty about fucking someone else and/or fucking/jacking/ dildo-ing themselves at this uncertain and fearful moment in our nation’s history. Yes, 114

we must donate and volunteer and protest and vote, all while reminding ourselves daily that Hillary Clinton won the popular vote. And we must commit to defending our friends, neighbors and co-workers who are immigrants (documented or not), Muslims (American-born, immigrants or refugees), people of color, women seeking reproductive health care, trans men and women seeking safety, lesbian and gay men seeking to protect their families, and everyone and everything else Trump has threatened to harm, up to and including the planet we all live on. But we must make time for joy and pleasure and laughter and friends and food and art and music and sex. During the darkest days of the HIV/AIDS epidemic, when Republicans and religious conservatives controlled the federal government and were doing everything in their power to harm the sick and dying, queers organized and protested and volunteered and mourned. We also made music and theater and art. We took care of each other, and we danced and loved and fucked. Embracing joy and art and sex in the face of fear and uncertainty made us feel better – it kept us sane – and it had the added benefit of driving our enemies crazy. They couldn’t understand how we could be anything but miserable, given the challenges we faced – their greed, their indifference, their bigotry – but we created and experienced joy despite their hatred and despite this awful disease. We turned to each other – we turned to our lovers and friends and sometimes strangers – and said, “Fuck them. Now fuck me.” We didn’t eradicate HIV/AIDS, the disease that was sickening us then, but we fought it to a standstill and we may defeat it yet. The disease that now sickens our nation is different. We may never eradicate racism and sexism and hatred. But fight it we will. And don’t listen to anyone who tells you that music and dance and art and sex and joy are a distraction from the fight. They are a part of the fight. My boyfriend is undocumented. His sister married a U.S. citizen and may receive a green card. We had hoped to someday do the same. But next year, the extreme right will control all three branches of the federal government. Deportation will surely come for my boyfriend. Additionally, we’re a gay couple, and Donald Trump has pledged to repeal marriage equality, if not ban it outright. So if we were to marry now, the timing would look suspicious. And even if we did marry, that marriage is likely to be invalidated in the coming years. Is it still worth it to try? What do I do if the government takes away the love of my life? Keep Him Home You should marry your boyfriend immediately, KHH, and do so with confidence.

“There is no realistic possibility that anyone’s marriage will be invalidated,” says Shannon Minter, legal director for the National Center for Lesbian Rights, which has taken marriage-rights cases to the U.S. Supreme Court (and won). “The law is very strong that if a marriage is valid when entered, it cannot be invalidated by any subsequent change in the law. So people who are already married should not be concerned that their marriage can be taken away.” And Minter says the court is unlikely to overturn Obergefell, the decision that legalized same-sex marriage across the country. “The doctrine of stare decisis – which means that courts generally will respect and follow their own prior rulings – is also very strong, and the Supreme Court very rarely overturns an important constitutional ruling so soon after issuing it,” says Minter. “Even the appointment of an anti-marriage-equality justice to replace Justice Scalia would not jeopardize the Supreme Court’s 2015 ruling on marriage equality, and the great majority of Americans still strongly support the freedom of same-sex couples to marry.” I’m heartsick about the election. Today I made a donation to Planned Parenthood. PP asked me if I wanted my donation to be in honor of anyone and noted they’ll send a card to that person to let them know I’ve donated in their name. Why yes, I thought, I’d like to make my donation in honor of Mike Pence, vice president-elect. Until Jan. 20, his address is 4600 N. Meridian St., Indianapolis, IN 46208. After Jan. 20, his address will sadly be 1 Observatory Circle NW, Washington, D.C. 20008. If any of your readers are inclined to join me in honoring our VP-elect, they can donate at planned parenthood.org. Generous Investment Verifying Equality In addition to donating to Planned Parenthood – which everyone should do – please donate to the American Civil Liberties Union (aclu.org). Better yet, become a cardcarrying member of the ACLU today. With Trump in the White House, and Republicans in control of both houses of Congress, freedom and decency need to lawyer the fuck up.

Are you looking for a new pet? Meet Champagne!
