EDITOR’S NOTE WELL VERSED AND DIVERSE If there is any theme to be divined from this week’s edition of Boise Weekly, it’s diversity.

On Page 6, BW News Editor George Prentice exposes a dire situation in the form of workplace safety. As the Occupational Safety and Health Administration continues its investigation into the deaths of two construction workers—and the injury of a third—in a trench collapse in May, we look at another active OSHA case and speak with a labor union representative who suggests on-the-job tragedies may be more prevalent than we think.

We lighten things up a bit with with a tour of Boise Art Museum’s new exhibition on outsider art on Page 14, check in with Lee Bains III & the Glory Fires on how their sonic fight for social justice going (Page 22), profile a hipster-laden summer rom-com on Page 23 and have a brief conversation with KISS’s own Paul Stanley on Page 24.

If all that makes you thirsty, on Page 25 we publish the results of our monthly liquor tasting—this time, delving into the summertime staple gin and tonic.

Finally, on Page 15, you’ll find a complete rundown of everything to see, do, eat or listen to at the second annual World Village Festival, billed as the most diverse arts and culture festival in Boise.

Set to go down Friday, June 10 through Sunday, June 12 at Capitol Park, the event showcases the culture and traditions of more than 12 local ethnic communities—representing five of the globe’s seven continents.

It’s all just part of another busy week in the City of Trees.

OPINION

4 | JUNE 8–14, 2016 | BOISEweekly

BOISE WEEKLY.COM

OPINION FROM THE FAR MARGINS Falling down stairs NICOLE LEFAVOUR You are falling down a set of stairs. You don’t have health insurance so hoping that nothing is broken or dislocated takes on special meaning.

Your boss cut your hours and your job ended up paying half of what you thought. Your dreams of getting insurance under the Affordable Care Act evaporated… again. And no, you are not one of those Obama-hating conservatives who, mid-air on the way to the concrete floor, blames the president for the potential emptying of every account in your name and the perpetual debt that will follow because what’s in those accounts is not going to be enough for this.

No. You know the Idaho legislature is responsible because they refused to use federally funded Medicaid to offer a bit of help to those of you who get in financial predicaments—like anyone who did not make the $11,000 annual minimum for Obamacare. Really, you’d pay for insurance if you could, but it’s absurd. By no stretch of the imagination can you stop paying rent or buying groceries every month to do that.

So yes, you hit the concrete and the universe comes to rest on your bank account, not on your shoulder, which seems oddly limp, or the throbbing in your arm. You’re calculating this disaster and the person who comes to assist has no idea they’ve stepped into a crisis beyond broken bones or dislocated parts. You’re deciding how fucked you are, how likely it is you’ll lose your house.

You’re estimating the likelihood of your homelessness and never seeing your cat again.

Imagine getting cancer. I mean, there’d be the diagnosis and then the calculations of how much worse slow death would be than the loss of everything you own and the pain of treatment simultaneous with knowing what you’ve spent a lifetime building would be de-materializing before you. Warm bed; kitchen where you can cook; place where maybe your children took their fist steps, spoke their first words; the place you come to when all you want is to sit in silence, to remind yourself you’re there inside that shell of a person who works long hours with little show for it but a warm fuzzy feeling of having done something that matters to someone besides yourself.

Beyond that there’s being uninsured when you have children. Your kids have CHIP so they’re on Medicaid, and when you’re watching slow-motion as the deer sails into the headlights and the breaks squeal—because you imagine the whole creature being sucked into your cab in a way that decapitates all of you—and going off the road in a skid seems better, or even rolling. And you do roll, several times, and the kids fly and you cometo in a field with ambulance personnel in some sort of polyester uniforms telling you to stay still.

BOISE WEEKLY.COM

But all you want to know is are the kids OK. And they are, sort of. They’re in the ambulance but you, the polyester-clad ones say, you have a broken neck, a c-spine injury. But still, you say, “NO. Don’t touch me. Leave me here. Take the kids. I’ll get by. Really.” And clearly they think you’re insane. You explain: “No insurance.”

They back up a bit. “We have forms for that,” the female paramedic says. But you’re not someone who believes the County Indigent Fund is a free ride. You know better. The whole of your financial existence will be encumbered. The house passed down to you from your great-grandparents will be collateral for something you’ll never make enough in your lifetime to pay off.

“Leave me here. Take the kids. I’ll get by.”

“Ma’am, we can’t.”

Then you’re screaming at them because now you’re calculating what it’s like to be homeless with small children.

But, for many, it’s far simpler. It’s that daily choice between medication and food; between doing what you know you should for your health and eating. Those are hard choices. Sometimes it’s about psychotropic medications without which you don’t make great decisions anyway. Skip those for a month and it doesn’t much matter.

Sure, if you had health coverage, your practitioner would be aware you’re off your meds.

Too many tragedies come down to the cost of medication and health.

So the concrete is there. You flew through the air and you don’t care what’s broken. “I’m fine,” you say, “Just fine.” And you have to be. You’ve contemplated getting the words tattooed: “Leave me alone. If I am broken or unconscious, leave me here. Trust me. It’s better.”

You’re too young to be one of those waiting for that 65th birthday, which means you get Medicare. You wonder if the waiting ones have let this or that go too long and, when the birthday comes and they finally do get to go to a doctor, it will be, “I’m sorry, there’s nothing we can do.”

A few months ago, Sen. Dan Schmidt turned down the free health coverage lawmakers get just for being lawmakers. I used to serve with Dan in the Senate. A good, humble man. He’s waiting until the rest of us have the liberty to break a bone without breaking our whole lives.

Sen. Schmidt, thank you. The symbolism means something to about 78,000 of us in Idaho and 33 million nationwide, where Republican legislatures have thrown us out of hospitals and clinics to make a stupid point about party politics, which, in the end, when you’re flying through the air toward concrete, you simply don’t care about.

NEWS DYING FOR A JOB

Statewide results of the “new’ SATs are expected Tuesday, June 14.

AWAITING THE NEW (AND IMPROVED?) SATS School’s out for the summer, but more than a few parents and students will be keeping a close eye on the mail. On Tuesday, June 14, Idaho school officials will release statewide data indicating how high schoolers performed on their Scholastic Assessment Tests.

The SATs, taken by thousands of collegebound high-school juniors and seniors, remain the benchmark for acceptance into many U.S. universities. The results for Idaho were not good in 2015, particularly in math and critical reading scores.

However, there were revisions to the 2016 SATs, including no penalties for guessing, a greater emphasis on word meanings and a new scoring range: 400-1600. Still, In anticipation of the June 14 results, the Idaho State Department of Education cautioned students and parents to avoid “using college board tests as a sole indicator of the overall performance.” ISDE officials said administrators should not be “using test scores as the sole basis for important decisions affecting the lives of individuals.”

Superintendent of Public Instruction Sherri Ybarra went as far as telling Idaho Education News in 2015 that she wasn’t even a fan of the “SAT Day” phenomenon, the one-day “test-athon,” touted heavily by her predecessor, State Superintendent Tom Luna. Ybarra criticized what she called the “one-size-fits-all culture” propped up by the SAT Day approach.

As for SAT administrators, they said the old arbitrary benchmark of scoring 1550 out of 1600 was “very ambitious” and “never meant to judge a person’s ability to succeed.” This year, they said, the new SAT benchmarks “reflect a more realistic picture of satisfactory performance and college readiness,” and the old SATs held students to college grade standards of As or Bs while the new SATs represent a 75 percent likelihood of a student achieving at least a C grade in the first semester.

Trench collapse, manure pit drowning among OSHA Idaho probes GEORGE PRENTICE The incidents couldn’t have been more different. One occurred in a busy Boise neighborhood and emergency responders swarmed to the scene. The other occurred in a dairy farm manure pit in the tiny Jerome County town of Hazelton.

In Boise, crews from the city’s fire and police departments teamed with Ada County Paramedics and the Ada County Highway District to free three men who had been buried alive in a trench collapse. In Hazelton, a dairy worker lay in the manure pit for 10 hours before his body was pulled from the scene. In the end, two of the Boise victims and the lone Hazelton victim were dead. The cases of all three are now receiving significant attention from the U.S. Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration.

“From one angle or another, I have personally known a lot of people involved in Idaho work-related tragedies. It’s very personal for me,” said David Kearns, OSHA director for the state of Idaho. “When I was growing up here in Boise, I never planned on being the ‘OSHA guy.’ But it didn’t take more than a couple of investigations for me to start getting pretty preachy based on the things I’ve seen and how they have rocked communities and hurt families.”

As for the dairy worker in Hazelton, identified as 37-year-old Ruperto Vazquez-Carrera, who drove his feed truck toward the Sunrise Organic Dairy Farm manure pit but never returned, he is one of a multitude of Idaho farm workers whose primary language isn’t English.

“It’s a real tragedy. About half of the fatalities we had last year involved people where English was not their first language,” said Kearns. “They’re vulnerable workers. They may fear deportation; they’re open to exploitation. They’re afraid of the federal government and they don’t know the difference between OSHA and ICE [Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the enforcement arm of U.S. Department of Homeland Security].”

The investigation into Vazquez-Carrera’s death is complete and is currently being

reviewed at a higher level “due to the nature of the incident,” Kearns said.

“It was a preventable tragedy—one of the worst ways I can think of dying,” he said.

In addition to triggering a federal investigation, the Hazelton manure pit drowning also drew the attention of the United Farm Workers of America.

“After his truck submerged into the manure pit, that man’s body lay in there until the next

day,” said Indira Trejo, UFW Global Impact coordinator. “That quickly came on our radar because, in February of 2015, another dairy worker drowned in a manure pit at the Riverview Ranch Dairy in Mabton, Wash.”

UFW lobbied the Washington Legislature for improved dairy safety standards, but said aggressive opposition from the dairy industry killed the proposed bill. The UFW is now pushing for a meeting with Idaho Gov. C.L. BOISE WEEKLY.COM

NEWS “Butch” Otter, reminding Gem State lawmakers that the most recent fatal incident at the Hazelton dairy is not an anomaly—three dairy workers around the state were killed on the job in 2013 alone.

“When the United Farm Workers started communicating via Facebook about the struggles at Washington dairy farms, we began getting a lot of communication from Idaho workers telling us to come here,” said Trejo. “And after the drowning in Hazelton, we knew we had to come.”

Trejo met with Boise Weekly in early May, after she spent several days traveling across the Magic Valley meeting workers and their families in coffee shops, restaurants, churches and living rooms. But never at a worksite.

“Are you kidding me? I would probably be shot if I set foot on a farm,” she said. “What did I hear from the workers? What did I not hear? I just talked to a farmworker who was injured on the job. Last week, he didn’t have food to eat, so he had to figure out a way to work. Even though he’s hurting on one side, he’s driving with his other hand. And as for accidents on the job? I heard about a lot of them, reported and unreported.”

Meanwhile, in Idaho’s state capital, the town is still buzzing about the May 3 trench collapse that claimed two lives and seriously injured another worker. The incident filled the television airwaves for days and had more than a few people guessing exactly what happened. Owners of Meridian-based Hard Rock Construction, which employed the three men, are remaining tight-lipped about exactly what happened. The day after the tragedy the trench had already been backfilled and paved over with asphalt.

Nonetheless, the investigation into the Boise trench collapse has garnered the attention of OSHA. “I won’t tell you too much, because it’s an open investigation,” said Kearns, but agreed to provide details on trench-digging in general and the type of five-foot-deep Boise trench that collapsed in particular.

“A trench wall is almost always a dirt wall.

Usually, there’s nothing to back the dirt.

There are a variety of methods they can use to protect themselves. One, is to slope the walls back, 1 ½ [feet] horizontal to 1 [foot] vertical [or about 34 degrees].”

Since the trench collapse, some media reports have included speculation that the Hard Rock crew hadn’t been using any shielding, such as a trench box. That’s something Kearns wouldn’t comment on.

“Without talking about this particular case, I can tell you that if you’re working in a narrow, confined space and don’t want to do that much digging, another option is to use BOISE WEEKLY.COM

some kind of shielding.”

When asked about OSHA’s working relationship with Idaho employers, Kearns had some praise for a number of industries, but reserved particular criticism for one of the fastest-growing industries in the Gem State, particularly in the post-recession era: home builders.

“If I were to talk about a trade where we have some of our most difficult dealings, it would be the residential construction industry,” he said. “A number of general contractors want to be hands-off and have no responsibility. And then the subcontractors believe that they best way to stay out of trouble with OSHA is to run away and shut down the job when they see us coming. That’s pretty dangerous. There’s a majority… yes, I would say majority that believe that’s what it’s all about.

That’s a real tragedy.”

The worst of the tragedies result in death on the job. It’s a grim reminder each May 1, when Kearns joins Idaho labor leaders to mourn those who have lost their lives in the service of others on Workers Memorial Day. This year, the names of 13 men and women were read. The causes of death included logging camp accidents, workers being crushed by vehicles, severe dehydration and a woman whose hair was caught and pulled her into a conveyor shaft at a Canyon County seed plant.

“Employers are required to notify OSHA within eight hours of a catastrophe. Beginning last year, employers are also now required to notify us of hospitalizations or amputations. That’s an area I think we saw a dramatic level of underreporting before,” said Kearns. “But sometimes we learn of something because it just broke as news and someone like George Prentice calls me and asks, ‘Can you comment on this?’ That will start an investigation, too.”

Time and again, Kearns tells anyone who will listen that nearly every accident, hospitalization and fatality was preventable.

“They’re prevented by following basic, recognized safety rules and practices. As far as the trench cave-in, I don’t know yet if that was preventable,” he said. “But we have a sixmonth statute on that investigation.”

That means sometime before early November, OSHA will come out with its investigation on the Boise trench collapse. Before that, sometime around mid-August, OSHA should reveal its findings on the Hazelton manure pit drowning.

“In some cases, we may need to continue that investigation, but if we’re going to issue any citation, it has to be within six months,” said Kearns. “The public and, most importantly, families deserve answers.”

WORLD VILLAGE FESTIVAL

BOISE AIDS WALK

I48 FILM FESTIVAL

The World Village Festival, a diverse arts, culture and humanities event, is set to kick off its three-day run in Capitol Park, Friday, June 10-Sunday, June 12.

Presented by Global Lounge, the WVF hosts multi-national performing groups representing a variety of cultures from around Idaho and the Northwest.

Through dance, music, storytelling, poetry, film and food, the WVF showcases African, Basque, Bosnian, Chinese, Filipino, Greek, Indian, Japanese, Mexican, Middle Eastern, Native American, North and South American, and Portuguese communities.

Hit up this event and you’ll feel like a globetrotter without leaving town.

Fri., June 10, 4-10 p.m.; Sat., June 11, 10 a.m.-10 p.m.; and Sun., June 12, 9:30 a.m.-5:30 p.m.; FREE. Capitol Park, 601 W. Jefferson St., worldvillagefestival.com.

According to the World Health Organization, by 2014, 71 million people had been infected with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)—34 million had died and almost 37 million were living with the disease. The portrayal of the disease as primarily affecting intravenous drug users and members of the LGBT community has compounded its devastating impact on society.

On Saturday, June 11, join hundreds of locals for the second annual Boise AIDS Walk, a 2.5-mile trek through the streets of Boise to raise awareness of and funds for people in Idaho affected by the illness. When the last walker has crossed the finish line, there will be a raffle for goodies from My Family Tradition barbecue sauces, $150 in Flying M prizes and more.

10 a.m.; $25/person, $20/person for groups of four; FREE for children 6 and under. Flying M Coffeehouse, 500 W. Idaho St., 208345-4320, boiseaidswalk.org.

Right about the time this edition of Boise Weekly was going to press, a few dozen local filmmakers were hopefully getting some shut-eye—they had just completed the round-the-clock insanity that is the i48 film competition and festival. When i48’s founders first dreamed up the idea of sending filmmaking teams on an Amazing Race-type 48-hour marathon, they thought it would fly under the radar, attracting maybe six teams—eight, tops. More than 30 teams showed up that first year and 13 years later, the teams (and films) keep coming. The end result is screenings of three bundles of films on Saturday, June 11 at The Flicks and a “Best in Show” screening, along with awards, on Sunday, June 12 at The Egyptian.

All films festival: Saturday, June 11; 12:30, 2:30 and 4:30 p.m.; $7. The Flicks, 646 W. Fulton, St., 208-342-4288. Best Of i48 and Awards: Sunday, June 12; 5 p.m.; $7. The Egyptian Theatre, 700 W. Main St., 208-345-0454, idaho48.org.

ISF’s Love’s Labor’s Lost: It’s a win.

ISF, TYNE RAFAELI MAKE LOVE’S LABOR’S LOST LOOK EASY While the lovers in Shakespeare’s Love Labor’s Lost might be left unfulfilled, that is not the case for audiences of Idaho Shakespeare Festival’s latest production. From opening curtain through the final bow, the production is a well-paced romp through romantic absurdities and a celebration of the power of the ensemble.

As the saying goes, there are no small roles, and that is especially true in this case where individually strong performances build upon and accentuate each other to create a whole even more powerful. With a cast made up of familiar ISF players and newcomers alike, the rapport between the actors is undeniable as they work together to create a performance that is in turns laugh-out-loud funny and quietly touching.

In her directorial debut with ISF, Tyne Rafaeli has successfully blended modern culture with traditional Shakespeare in a way that never feels forced or odd. Modern inclusions—whether it’s a simple vocal inflection or even a rap— enrich the source material rather than feel like they’ve been jammed in to get a laugh. Rafaeli makes good use of her cast’s talent for physical comedy and she clearly allowed the actors to have fun with their roles, which infuses the production with creative energy.

Love’s Labor’s Lost is the story of the King of Navarre and his entourage of three young lords who have pledged to dedicate themselves to academia for three years. They are not to speak or even look at women, lest they be distracted from their studies. Yeah, that doesn’t last long.

Enter the Princess of France and her ladies in waiting—who have one of the best entrances, undeniably channeling Beyonce. Surrounded by clowns, servants, scholars, a Spanish knight and a possibly Canadian constable, there are misplaced letters, mistaken identities and open mocking—the best of a Shakespearean comedy.

The refreshing combination of returning cast members and first-timers plays upon the strengths of both and Love’s Labor’s Lost is well worth the price of a ticket for longtime lovers of Shakespeare as well as anyone who just loves a good comedy.

—Deanna Darr Love’s Labor’s Lost runs through Sunday, June 26. Idaho Shakespeare Festival, 5657 E. Warm Springs Ave., 208-336-9221, idahoshakespeare.org.

FOLKS NEED ART

Folk Art: The Drew and Katie Gibson Collection at BAM highlights tradition while reexamining definitions AMY ATKINS

A motorcycle built from bicycle chains and cans; a bank made of matchsticks and mirrors; a truck constructed from toothpicks, aluminum foil and cardboard; cloth dolls, papier-mache figures, furniture, fishing decoys, a birdhouse, a Balinese drum, an American flag, a crazy quilt. Individually, these items are interesting and good examples of skilled craftspeople.

Together, however, these and several other works transcend their individual function or purpose and, in some cases, even their aesthetics, to form the “art” in Folk Art: The Drew and Katie Gibson Collection, an exhibition at Boise Art Museum on display now through Sunday, July 24.

Though maybe not as well-known as Herb and Dorothy Vogel or Kendra and Allan Daniel, the Gibsons—who spend time in both California and Idaho—are equally passionate about art, supporting both San Jose Museum of Art and BAM, gifting artworks collected on their travels to both museums.

ALIVE AFTER FIVE: WAYNE “THE TRAIN” HANCOCK, JUNE 8

BLISTERED EARTH: ULTIMATE TRIBUTE TO METALLICA—8 p.m. $10-$21. Knitting Factory

When he was 18 years old, Wayne Hancock won a talent contest for his songwriting and musicianship. Shortly thereafter, he joined the Marines. Four years in the Corps couldn’t knock the rock out of him and in 1995, the twangy, cowboy hat-wearing Hancock—now nicknamed “The Train”—cut his first album: Thunderstorms and Neon Signs (Dejadisc). He has been cutting deep, old-timey country/western tracks ever since, and his songs have been covered by Hank Williams III. Hancock’s music is like something from the O Brother, Where Art Thou? soundtrack crossed with boogie bop and rockabilly. It’s perfect for dancing to, which is the thing to do at Alive After Five, where Hancock will headline, with Boise’s own western band Poke opening. Don’t miss them at The Basque Block Wednesday, June 8.

AUSTIN LUCAS, JUNE 10, THE SHREDDER Frequenters to local punk/metal den The Shredder might be a little surprised going cold into Austin Lucas’ upcoming show there.

With his tattoos and patch-covered denim jackets, Lucas might look the part, but he’d be an odd choice to pen with either genre.

Self-described as an “Indiana troubadour,” Lucas specializes in a warbling, sauntering, stripped-down country folk sound that feels, at times, like a combination of vintage Hank Williams crossed with Jolie Holland. His take on the style lays emphasis on stories reeled out in a voice as mournful and occasionally lonely as it is tonally true.

Touring behind his latest release, Between the Moon and the Midwest (Last Chance Records, Feb. 2016), Lucas characterized his newest work as a marriage of “traditional and cosmic country sounds with sharp, vivid storytelling.” Check and double-check.

This Way to the Egress, LED’s newest multimedia piece, is inspired by a runaway primate.

SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE? You can (Salsa Idaho Festival). You can also catch an innovative dance company (LED) and read our review of another (Project Flux).

With the 2015 debut of This Side of Paradise, LED brought brilliant dance, live music and video to the Morrison Center, Egyptian Theatre and Treefort Music Fest. The performing art collaborative is set to do it again on yet another stage with a glimpse of This Way to the Egress, a multimedia work inspired by a runaway primate. On Thursday, June 9 and Friday, June 10, at Visual Arts Collective, see Chapter 1 of This Way, along with performances from past LED works. Shows start at 8 p.m. and tickets are $16 in advance, $20 at the door, available through brownpapertickets.com. More at facebook.com/LEDboise.

If you want to try your hand—and feet—at tripping the light fantastic, head to the 10th Annual Salsa Idaho Festival on Saturday, June 11, at the Knitting Factory. Beginner dance lessons start at 9 p.m. and once California based Edgardo y Candela starts playing its intoxicating sound, you won’t care who’s watching. Tickets are $20 (18 and over), and more information is available at salsaidaho.com.

In dance review news, Boise Weekly Staff Writer Harrison Berry beat feet to the Esther Simplot Performing Arts Center on June 3 to catch the Project Flux 2016 performance.

Project Flux choreographer and founder Lydia Sakolsky-Basquill has said she typically appends music late in the choreography process. Often, her pieces are scored with ambient music mixed with spoken word, which was true of “navigate. auditory. system. alignment. (nasa),” which debuted June 3. “Nasa” pairs ambitious forward momentum with a tendency to reminisce. It parallels the path of dancer Evan Stevens, who began dancing three years ago. Stevens’ style is organic and explosive, and his performance in the new piece showed him interacting in unison with other dancers without backing off from his physicality.

The June 3 performance also brought back “mansion. apartment. shack. home. (mash),” which debuted in 2014, and the popular “successive. stagnant.”

With “nasa,” Sakolsky-Basquill mixes elements to create something that looks (and sounds) natural: “nasa” is not a divergence for the young company; it’s a metaphor for it.

Lee Bains III & the Glory Fires rock against injustice on Dereconstructed BEN SCHULTZ

At the end of their South By Southwest 2016 set (footage is available on Youtube) Lee Bains III and the Glory Fires played “Dirt Track,” the last song from their sophomore album, Dereconstructed (Sub Pop, 2014). Bains told the crowd the song was partially inspired by the people who built and raced cars before racing became a professional sport.

SCREEN EXTRA NETFLIX BUSTS THE BORDER HOPPERS As if Netflix didn’t rule enough of the entertainment world already, the streaming giant has now reportedly cracked the elusive code whereby millions of cordcutters “border hopped.”

Netflix boasts more than 80 million worldwide subscribers but that number would be even bigger if Netflix could capture Canadians, particularly in Toronto and Vancouver, who use a “virtual private network” or VPN in order to view BOISE WEEKLY.COM

Netflix’s U.S. content. For example, the CSI franchise and criticallyacclaimed European crime dramas such as Wallander aren’t available on Netflix Canada. Even Canadian hit TV series Degrassi isn’t available in its home country via Netflix.

The CBC recently reported Netflix has “started fiercely hunting down border hoppers,” but Netflix

executives are tight-lipped about how they’re catching the culprits.

When CBC News asked Netflix about the crackdown, the company refused to provide any details about what methods it is using and “had nothing more to say.”

Why is Netflix’s latest crackdown such a big deal?

Because, according to a report from the Convergence Consulting

Group, Canadians are even bigger cord-cutters than Americans. More important, Netflix could possibly share its anti-VPN methodology with rivals Amazon, Hulu, HBO GO and others to cut off service to the millions of Americans who utilize VPNs to access content across the globe.

Simply put, it looks like Netflix is watching us as much as we’re watching it.

He’s a bestselling author, painter, philanthropist and a bit soft-spoken. He’s also one of the world’s premier badasses. Paul Stanley, aka Starchild, co-lead singer of KISS and co-writer of many of the band’s best-selling hits, is preparing for the band’s current 35-city tour—dubbed “Freedom to Rock”—which begins in Boise on Thursday, July 7.

“Any band with money can put on a KISS show, but they can’t be KISS,” said Stanley, who spoke to Boise Weekly about his life and legend.

by having a birth defect and feeling very insecure, being a little kid who was stared at or being made fun of. Face the Music ended up being a New York Times bestseller and translated into languages all over the world. I really wrote that book for my children, for them to know what it takes to succeed and for them to understand we have a choice to see ourselves as victims or to lead the life that we deserve. For me, it’s very rewarding to share with kids to know that life can be difficult but the outcome can be terrific.

Is there any part of touring that you still love?

Honestly, it’s a lot like winning the lottery but complaining about having to pay taxes.

Everybody should have my life. It’s everything anyone could ever dream of. All presidents want to be rock stars; but rock stars don’t ever want to be president.

Have you ever considered that KISS arrived at the exact right time in our history of popular culture?

So it seems. I guess we were needed as much as we thought. KISS started as being the band we wanted to see but never saw. As a rock fan, I felt certain things were missing from the bands I was seeing. I think there was a lack of respect, a lack of appreciation for audiences. You had bands on the stage thinking they were doing audiences a favor. I think KISS was a wake-up call, the right band at the right time to mount the attack.

To that end, do you feel some responsibility to your fans?

We have a legend to live up to and a standard that we’ve kept from the very beginning. I don’t take it lightly. This kind of stature doesn’t come without hard work. But that doesn’t mean it can’t be fun.

I’m certain I’m not the first to tell you that I could be at a KISS concert and see my kids and my parents there.

It would be pretty uncomfortable if I looked out on an audience that looked like an outing for a retirement community. That said, it’s amazing that we’ve become much like a tribe that crosses all generations. It’s still a thrill to see a neighbor, little brother or grandfather at our show. It’s the world’s largest cult and everybody celebrates their membership.

I must tell you that it was a bit of a surprise to learn in your 2014 autobiography, Face the Music, that you were born with a misshapen left ear resulting in a hearing deficiency.

Perhaps part of my quest for fame was really about my own insecurities. Those were magnified 24 | JUNE 8–14, 2016 | BOISEweekly

And as far as your endurance—and we’re talking about more than 40 years—my sense is that KISS is an essential rock band but the makeup and pyrotechnics only amplify that.

A crappy band with a big show is still a crappy band. We’ve seen enough of those. You’ve got to have the content. You can’t last 40 years on a gimmick. You’re only the new band on the scene just once and once that buzz dies, it’s deafening.

You may end up on the cover of Rolling Stone by putting a teapot on your head; next year you’ll be serving fries.

How do you design one tour to be different from another while not being too different for diehard members of the tribe?

What are we going to do? Come out wearing red leather and hats? We’re KISS. But we try to do a better, more powerful version of what we’ve done before. It doesn’t get bigger, but it sure can get better.

BOOZEHOUND THREE UNIQUE SPINS ON GIN

From Scotland to Idaho, these gins are winners Z ACH HAGADONE that dissolves into an play of crisp citrus and refreshing floral tones. There’s danger in seduction, of course, and weighing in at 90 proof, The Botanist could wreak havoc if mishandled.

These should gin up some enthusiasm on the patio.

There is precious little middle ground with gin.

For some, it’s fightin’ booze with the power to turn an otherwise upright person into a Dickensian slum dweller. For others, it’s the apex of civility— shaken and served up with a pair of skewered olives. No matter, it’s serious stuff.

Properly mixed and sipped responsibly, gin can be the pinnacle of summertime refreshment.

We tasted three gins—all from parts of the world whence one wouldn’t expect gin to hail—mixed with a healthy spritz of Fever Tree tonic water ($2.45 for a 16.9 ounce bottle) and garnished with fresh chunks of lime. Originally intended as a way for English sailors to fight malaria (hence the quinine in tonic water) and scurvy (enter: lime juice) while still keeping the seamen in high spirits (thanks, gin), the gin and tonic is simple but also unique in its ability to tease out the delicate botanicals and complex juniper flavors native to this fickle tipple. Here’s what we tasted: THE BOTANIST ISLAY DRY GIN, $37.95—The word “Islay” (pronounced “EYE-la”) is not one commonly associated with gin. An island in the Hebrides chain off the west coast of Scotland, Islay is a vaunted producer of Scotch whisky noted for its smoky, peaty single malt style. We wondered if everything carrying the name Islay smelled like the hearth of an 800-year-old pub. Turns out not.

Billed as an artisanal gin of “layered complexity,” The Botanist delivers on its promise of a “seductive experience.” Pot-distilled, so its aromatics and botanicals are slowly teased out in a 17-hour distillation process, this gin trades the pungency of lower-quality offerings for a velvety mouth feel BOISE WEEKLY.COM

MARTIN MILLER’S GIN, $27.60—Though gin originated in the Netherlands, it was the English who made it an imperial spirit. A relatively young brand, launched in England in 1999, the eponymous distiller Martin Miller set out with the intent to craft an iconoclastic gin. Distilled in the London dry style, which imposes strict rules limiting additives and colorants other than water, this gin goes through two distillations—the first with a palette of five botanicals plus juniper and a small boost of lime peel, and the second with bitter orange peel, lemon and more lime peel. Miller eschews “exotic additions” that “smack more of hype than innovation.” Simplicity isn’t the only thing that sets Martin Miller’s apart. The gin is finished with Icelandic spring water. Floral and up front on the nose, this 80 proof gin carries a faint licorice note on the palate and touch of lingering sweetness. Mixed with tonic, it’s a satisfying interplay of sweet and bitter that would be tough to beat even at a higher price point.

OLD BOISE GIN, $24.95—As Islay and Iceland aren’t noted for gin production, neither is Caldwell. Still, this is a worthy effort from Old Boise Spirits. Boasting a similar roster of botanicals to the other gins in our tasting, Old Boise throws in an entry that marks it as truly a product of the Gem State. Yes, there is potato in this gin. Clocking in at 84 proof, Old Boise comes off much stiffer on the nose and features a strong juniper aftertaste that lingers. Classic gin notes shine through even when mixed with a healthy three-parts of tonic. There is no danger of forgetting you’re drinking gin, which we think is probably a plus. Old Boise plays just fine as a G and T. However, if you want to tamp down the gin aftertaste, we suggest swapping the tonic for Fever Tree ginger ale, as the spicy-sweet ginger smooths some of Old Boise’s edges.

BOTTOMS UP: While members of our tasting panel agreed they would purchase Old Boise over most massmarketed gins, the winner—by the merest of margins—was Martin Miller’s for its complexity sans confusion. Bonus: The price is most definitely right. The Botanist was a close second, but its smooth character would probably be best served as a martini to let its sophistication shine.

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY

BY ROB BREZSNY ARIES (March 21-April 19): Mythologist Joseph Campbell analyzed fairy tales for clues about how the human psyche works. For example, he said that a fairy tale character who’s riding a horse is a representation of our relationship with our instinctual nature. If that character drops the reins and lets the horse gallop without guidance, he or she is symbolically surrendering control to the instincts. I bring this to your attention because I suspect you may soon be tempted to do just that that—which wouldn’t be wise. In my opinion, you’ll be best served by going against the flow of what seems natural. Sublimation and transcendence will keep you much stronger than if you followed the line of least resistance.

Homework: Visualize yourself, as you ride your horse, keeping a relaxed but firm grasp of the reins.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): I will provide you with two lists of words. One of these lists, but not both, will characterize the nature of your predominant experiences in the coming weeks. It will be mostly up to you which emerges as the winner. Now read the two lists, pick the one you like better, and instruct your subconscious mind to lead you in that direction. List 1: gluttony, bloating, overkill, padding, exorbitance. List 2: mother lode, wellspring, bumper crop, gold mine, cornucopia.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): In his poem “Interrupted Meditation,” Robert Hass blurts out the following exclamation: “I give you, here, now, a magic key.

What does it open? This key I give you, what exactly does it open?”

How would you answer this question, Gemini? What door or lock or heart or treasure box do you most need opened? Decide today. And please don’t name five things you need opened. Choose one, and one only. To do so will dissolve a mental block that has up until now kept you from finding the REAL magic key.

future will be postponed until you agree to deal more intimately with this crumbled dream, which you have never fully grieved or surrendered. So here’s my advice: Summon the bravest, smartest love you’re capable of, and lay your sad loss to rest with gentle ferocity. This may take a while, so be patient. Be inspired by the fact that your new supply of brave, smart love will be a crucial resource for the rest of your long life.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): The following excerpt from Wendell Berry’s poem “Woods” captures the essence of your current situation: “I part the out-thrusting branches and come in beneath the blessed and the blessing trees. Though I am silent there is singing around me.

Though I am dark there is vision around me. Though I am heavy there is flight around me.” Please remember this poem at least three times a day during the next two weeks. It’s important for you to know that no matter what murky or maudlin or mysterious mood you might be in, you are surrounded by vitality and generosity.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Five times every day, devout Muslims face their holiest city, Mecca, and say prayers to Allah.

Even if you’re not Islamic, I recommend that you carry out your own unique version of this ritual. The next three weeks will be a favorable time to cultivate a closer relationship with the inspirational influence, the high ideal, or the divine being that reigns supreme in your life. Here’s how you could do it: Identify a place that excites your imagination and provokes a sense of wonder. Five times a day for the next 21 days, bow in the direction of this treasured spot. Unleash songs, vows, and celebratory expostulations that deepen your fierce and tender commitment to what you trust most and love best.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): A half-dead blast from the past is throttling the free flow of your imagination. Your best possible

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “The road reaches every place, the shortcut only one,” says aphorist James Richardson. In many

28 | JUNE 8–14, 2016 | BOISEweekly

cases, that’s not a problem. Who among us has unlimited time and energy? Why leave all the options open? Shortcuts can be valuable.

It’s often smart to be ruthlessly efficient as we head toward our destination. But here’s a caveat: According to my analysis of the astrological omens, you’re now in a phase when taking shortcuts may be counterproductive. To be as well seasoned as you will need to be to reach your goal, you should probably take the scenic route. The long way around may, in this instance, be the most efficient and effective.

hours spent riding on a roller coaster is 405 hours and 40 minutes. But I suspect that during the next 15 months, a Sagittarian daredevil may exceed this mark. I have come to this conclusion because I believe your tribe will be especially adept and relatively comfortable at handling steep rises and sudden dips at high speeds. And that won’t be the only rough talent you’ll have in abundance. I’m guessing you could also set new personal bests in the categories of most frequent changes of mind, most heroic leaps of faith, and fastest talking.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): “Truth is like the flu,” says poet James Richardson. “I fight it off, but it changes in other bodies and returns in a form to which I am not immune.” In the coming days, Scorpio, I suspect you will experience that riddle first hand—and probably on more than one occasion. Obvious secrets and wild understandings that you have fought against finding out will mutate in just the right way to sneak past your defenses.

Unwelcome insights you’ve been trying to ignore will finally wiggle their way into your psyche. Don’t worry, though. These new arrivals will be turn out to be good medicine.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Whether we like to admit it or not, all of us have acted like puppets.

Bosses and teachers and loved ones can manipulate us even if they’re not in our presence. Our conditioned responses and programmed impulses may control our behavior in the present moment even though they were formed long ago. That’s the bad news.

The good news is that now and then moments of lucidity blossom, revealing the puppet strings. We emerge from our unconsciousness and see that we’re under the spell of influential people to whom we have surrendered our power. This is one of those magic times for you, Capricorn.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): According to Guinness World records, the most consecutive

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): A few weeks ago you undertook a new course of study in the art of

fun and games. You realized you hadn’t been playing hard enough, and took measures to correct the problem. After refamiliarizing yourself with the mysteries of innocent joy, you raised the stakes. You began dabbling with more intensive forms of relief and release. Now you have the chance to go even further: to explore the mysteries of experimental delight. Exuberant escapades may become available to you. Amorous adventures could invite you to explore the frontiers of liberated love. Will you be brave and free enough to meet the challenge of such deeply meaningful gaiety?

Meditate on this radical possibility: spiritually adept hedonism.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Poet Sharon Dolin compares artists to sunflowers. They create “a tall flashy flower that then grows heavy with seeds whose small hard shells you must crack to get to the rich nut meat.” As I contemplate the current chapter of your unfolding story, I see you as being engaged in a similar process, even if you’re not literally an artist. To be exact, you’re at the point when you are producing a tall flashy flower. The seeds have not yet begun to form, but they will soon.

Later this year, the rich nut meat inside the small hard shells will be ready to pluck. For now, concentrate on generating your gorgeous, radiant flower.

MINERVA’S BREAKDOWN

THE ROCK CLOCK

DEAR MINERVA, How do I bring up fisting to a potential partner or lover?

Sincerely, —Sex Puppet

DEAR SEX PUPPET, My first inclination is to tell you, “DON’T!” I don’t mean that in a judgmental way, because I don’t really care what kinkiness two consenting adults get up to. I say “DON’T” because you are going to need your body parts—whether you are talking about vaginal fisting or anal fisting—for your whole life. EVERY DAY FOR YOUR WHOLE LIFE! Fisting falls into an extreme category of sex and fetishism and, while I have no philosophical problem with the idea, it certainly isn’t my cup of tea. That said, I do worry about people and their health. Laceration or perforation of these delicate areas is a very valid concern and can lead to infections that can cause major complications and yes, even death. All sex has risk, but I want you to take into consideration your physical desire to explore this activity versus the risk that it presents. If you absolutely must do this, please take all precautions necessary including the use of latex gloves, generous use of lube and establishing a safe word. Now that I told you that, might I suggest you get with your partner and come up with individual lists of kinky interests, combine them and have a good time talking about what you are and are not interested in trying. Exploring each other’s interests is definitely fun, so make it a tantalizing date night game.

SUBMIT questions to Minerva’s Breakdown at bit.ly/MinervasBreakdown or mail them to Boise Weekly, 523 Broad St., Boise, ID 83702. All submissions remain anonymous.

Success oozes from Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson like sweat. Before becoming one of the biggest draws in the history of American professional wrestling, he was a player on the National Championship-winning 1991 University of Miami Hurricanes football team.

Now, he’s an ultra-charismatic movie star, with credits in blockbusters like the Fast and Furious franchise. In order for Johnson to pack so much excellence into his days, he has to wake early to hit the gym and flex his brain muscles so they’ll be able to remember the oneliners in his next movie. Now, you can style your itinerary just like the man himself with The Rock Clock, an alarm and goal-setting app that sends encouragement to the user.

Set personal goals and get a “Yes!” FREE. App stores like iTunes or “Excellent!” from The Rock as your reward when you complete them. For non-morning people, crush your time-wasting sleep habit by setting your alarm to “Rock Time,” and the world’s only non-jabroni will rouse you from your slumber half an hour before your alarm was set to go off with jock jams, the sound of a chainsaw or mewing kittens.
