Beyonce’s top live performances By erica thompson
ColumbusAlive.com | Thursday, August 16, 2018
Whether or not you’re in the Beyhive, you can’t deny Beyonce’s talent as a live entertainer, and her ability to continuously deliver performances that make cultural waves. Before she hits another out of the park with Jay-Z at Ohio Stadium on Thursday, Aug. 16, here’s a look back at her top live performances (not ranked because I know not to poke the hive).
4
“The Star-Spangled Banner” at the 2004 Super Bowl You forgot she did this, didn’t you? Beyonce has had other national anthem performances that generated more hoopla (the lip-sync controversy at President Obama’s second inauguration, and the live rendition at her press conference a little over a week later — a glorious middlefinger move to silence critics). But the 2004 Super Bowl appearance is worth revisiting for her beautiful, soaring vocals. “Deja Vu” at the 2006 BET Awards Before peak “King Bey” heights, Beyonce opened the 2006 BET Awards with a performance that is still a sight to behold more than a decade later. There are no dancers, no marching band — mostly just the singer commanding every inch of the stage with crystal-clear vocals
that never waver as she joyously dances her heart out. It really is perfection, and I don’t use that word lightly. 2013 Super Bowl halftime show Scrolling through the last five decades of the Super Bowl’s halftime shows, Diana Ross is the only other black woman to carry an entire performance (I’m not counting the minute Destiny’s Child was onstage). That is a huge deal, and Beyonce did not disappoint. She was blamed, er, credited for knocking the power out of the Superdome. “Formation” at the 2016 Super Bowl You know you’re a cultural icon when your two-minute performance generates widespread fear and outrage among everyone from fragile TV personalities to police unions. “At Last” during President Obama’s 2009 Inaugural Ball No one else can say they performed for Barack and Michelle Obama’s first dance as the first black president and first lady. It’s one for the history books. “Run the World (Girls)” at the 2011 Billboard Music Awards Prior to receiving the Billboard Millennium Award, Beyonce gave a critically

acclaimed performance, during which she interacted with an impressive graphics presentation on a screen behind her. “I never worked so hard on anything in my life,” she said in an interview. It shows. “Love on Top” at the 2011 Video Music Awards Pre-Lemonade, pre-4:44, pre-MAGA Kanye, and with the sweet reveal of baby Blue at the end. Look at the joy on Jay-Z and Kanye’s faces in the audience. I just got really depressed. 2004 Grammy Awards with Prince “I was really curious as to how much she knew musically and I was really pleased to find out that she knew a lot,” Prince said in an interview. “I was just trying to show her some chords on the piano and help her to respect the fact that if she learns piano a la Aretha Franklin and Ray Charles, the sky’s the limit as to what she could do because she’s so very talented.” Enough said.
“Love Drought” and “Sandcastles” at the 2017 Grammy Awards A visibly pregnant Beyonce was the picture of womanhood and motherhood as she channeled ancient goddesses and moved audiences with words of healing. It was the same night Adele bested her for Album of the Year, but also had to stop her performance and start over. I’m sorry, Beyonce would never do that. #Beychella As the first woman of color to headline Coachella, Beyonce induced chills with her tribute to HBCUs and her rendition of “Lift Every Voice and Sing.” “I know that most of the young people on the stage and in the audience did not know the history of the black national anthem before Coachella,” she told Vogue. “But they understood the feeling it gave them. It was a celebration of all the people who sacrificed more than we could ever imagine, who moved the world forward so that it could welcome a woman of color to headline such a festival.”

Joel Oliphint testing Bird and Lime scooters for Alive
8
a GuidE To Birds and LimEs By Erica Thompson The summer of 2018 will forever be remembered as that time Bird and Lime dock-less electric scooters descended on Columbus and surrounding areas to the delight and dismay of residents. The city of Bexley, for example, wasted no time removing the Birds, which landed on July 11. “It is the City of Bexley’s
understanding that both Ohio and Bexley law prohibits the use of motorized scooters on the roadway or sidewalk,” read the city’s official statement. “Additionally, concerns regarding the placement and staging of vehicles in City right-of-way would require any user to obtain permission from the City prior to establishing a private vehicle rental operation that requires
the use of City property.” Despite the lack of regulation, the city of Columbus is allowing the Los Angeles-based Birds and San Francisco-based Limes, which arrived on July 29, to fly. “At this point there have been some conversations with the companies,” said Jeffrey Ortega, assistant director of the Department of Public Service. “The intent behind these
conversations will be to give residents and visitors access to these kind of services … [while] safely and effectively managing the public’s right of way.” “Bird looks to partner and collaborate with cities, such as Columbus, that share our vision of creating a community with fewer cars, less traffic and reduced carbon emissions,” the Bird spokesperson told Alive.
“We are working in partnership with the city and community leaders to bring that vision to life in Columbus, as we do in each of the cities we operate in.” “Since beginning our Ohio operations in Dublin, Worthington and Columbus in May, we have become the largest smart mobility provider in Central Ohio,” said Kyle Bivenour, Lime Operations Manager, Columbus. “We recently introduced electric scooters to our existing bike fleet in Columbus and are expanding our program to Ohio State University this week. We are thrilled to be a part of the
greater-Columbus community and look forward to continue making a positive impact on sustainable mobility in the region.” While Columbus has seen its share of improper riding and parking of scooters — though none thrown in trees just yet — there are plenty of residents who want to take advantage of the transportation responsibly and safely. If you’re among that group, here is our guide to using Birds and Limes.
Where They Are Bird scooters are currently located in Downtown, Short North and the Arena District. Lime scooters — and pedal-powered bicycles — are currently located in Clintonville, Linden, Campus, the South Side and Downtown.
hoW They Work
hoW Much They cosT Both Birds and Limes cost $1 to unlock and 15 cents per minute to ride. For lower-income residents who provide proof of state or federal assistance, Birds will eliminate the unlocking fee, while Lime provides a 50 percent discount on rides.
hoW To MAke Money You can sign up to be a Bird “charger” or Lime “juicer” via the apps. You’ll pick up the scoot-
ers, charge them at home and take them back into the community. According to The Rideshare Guy and ridesharecentral.com, you can make at least $5 per charge.
hoW They coMpAre (speed, eAse of ride) Our associate editor, Joel Oliphint, was the first person on staff to give the Bird scooters a try, which qualifies him as our resident expert. So we sent him out to do a highly scientific time trial to determine which scooter is faster. Oliphint took the scooters to the Scioto Mile and rode each one twice down a .07-mile stretch, or an approximately 90-second walk, and used three kicks each time to take off. He averaged 20 seconds on the Lime and 22 seconds on the Bird. Although the Lime is faster, it’s noisier and rockier — like riding “a souped-up kid’s scooter,” as Oliphint put it. If you prefer a smoother ride, go with the Bird.
ColumbusAlive.com | Thursday, August 16, 2018
Both Birds and Limes are accessed via a smartphone app, which locates the nearest scooters. They both require a driver’s license (you must be 18 or older to ride) and a credit/ debit card. Once a scooter is located, you must scan the QR code to unlock it. Both companies request riders wear helmets, but Bird allows users to request free helmets (plus $2 shipping) in the “safety” section of the app. Both companies said scooters must be ridden during daytime only in bike lanes and on the street (though Limes also boast a tail light and headlight for early morning and dusk rides). Columbus City Attorney Zach Klein has permitted scooter use on sidewalks, though, pending future regulation.
Scooters must be locked with the app, and parked at bike racks, curbside or otherwise out of public pathways. They are then collected each night and charged. They must be locked with the app, and parked at bike racks, curbside or otherwise out of public pathways. They are then collected each night and charged. If moved without unlocking, the Bird will beep, while the Lime warns in a stern voice, “Please unlock me to ride me, or I’ll call the police.”

COMMUNITY // THE LAST SEASON? Justin Meram gets high fives from fans

hoMeward Bound? By Justin Mcintosh
ColumbusAlive.com | Thursday, August 16, 2018
They say you can never go home again, but the last two weeks in Crewville have called that axiom into question. Let’s get to it.
10
Austin makes its move Austin City Council, you may recall, was supposed to settle this Save the Crew stuff once and for all on Aug. 9. That was when they were slated to decide who, exactly, would get to use the city-owned land at McKalla Place. Would it be for You Know Who’s planned heist? Or some other private development, such as an affordable housing project? Without McKalla Place, You Know Who’s proposed move would have been dead. Unfortunately, after delaying the vote, Austin City Council voted yes on the stadium term sheet on Aug. 15, potentially paving the way for the team’s move. The Return of Justin Meram Meram famously re-
quested a trade in the offseason because he “could never support an owner moving the team.” But now he’s back, so does that mean the Crew is saved?! According to Crew historian Steve Sirk, Meram became only the eighth Crew SC player to return to the team after leaving. Upon Meram’s re-introduction to Mapfre Stadium as a member of the Black and Gold on Saturday, Aug. 11, Crew SC announcers joked that the winger had an apple pie waiting for him on the window sill. Meram’s return wasn’t quite that storybook fairytale, but he was at least greeted warmly by the Nordecke — as evidenced by their “Lion of Mesopotamia” tifo tribute — when he entered the match at the hour-mark. Before the game, Meram is reported to have joked: “I enjoyed my sixmonth spell [in Orlando], but it’s good to be home.” Without Vision, the People Perish On Aug. 6, the Save the Crew movement revealed
its vision for a Downtown Crew SC stadium. The reveal confused a lot of non-Crew SC fans, some of whom turned to social media to express that they thought the team was surely leaving already and, also, no way in hell are they paying for this stadium, either. No way, sir. Still, despite whatever minor confusion this brilliant move might have generated, the buzz created far exceeded whatever’s happening in You Know Where. About the only thing You Know Who’s been able to muster there are full-page ads calling him everything from a used-car salesman to a spoiled daddy’s boy. Columbus Crew and the Funky Bunch? Speaking of “fake news,” ABC6 this week asked Mark Wahlberg, who was in town to promote his new Central Ohio car dealership (?), if he had any interest in buying the Crew. To which he replied, like any good car salesman, “Of course!” So yeah, this isn’t happening. Like ever. But thanks for the free, positive press! Another Last-Gasp Win Gyasi Zardes’ late winner against the Houston Dynamo on Aug. 11 was yet another in a season of miracles. And though that goal might’ve been eclipsed by Wayne Rooney’s rightly hyped hustle and Hail-Mary heave in D.C. United’s win over Orlando, we’ll take whatever home-field advantage we can get while we have it.

Franklin Park Conservatory Children’s Garden As a parent, I am always trying to find cool and interesting things to do with my kid that help foster her creativity and interest in the outdoors. This past spring the Franklin Park Conservatory opened the highly anticipated Children’s Garden, and it does not disappoint! The thought that went into creating this incredible space for kids is just mind-blowing! My 2-year-old, Lennon, absolutely loves it, and even if I didn’t have kids I would go and enjoy this place.
Maren Roth is the owner of Short North women’s boutique Rowe (718 N. High St.) and co-owner of newcomer Kiln Men’s Mercantile (988 N. High St.). Rowe began as a pop-up shop in May 2006, opened its permanent doors in 2007 and expanded in 2010, more than doubling the size of the store. In the 11 years since it debuted, Rowe has been a go-to shopping destination. In 2017 Maren and her husband, Marc, opened a uniquely curated men’s shop, Kiln, also located in the Short North. Both shops will take part in the 614 Reduction Sale, a one-day warehouse sale with discounted merchandise, on Saturday, Aug. 18, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Edgework Creative, 1271 Edgehill Rd. For $10, early-bird shoppers (9-10 a.m.) get first crack at the goods; the fee goes to local charity Flying Horse Farms. Here are some things Roth loves. Basi Italia I moved back to Columbus from NYC, and when I stumbled upon Basi I felt like I was back in New York. Although I love eating inside because it’s such an intimate and enjoyable experience, the outdoor back patio is my favorite spot. Even in the winter we eat out back, which the restaurant encloses and heats (and provides blankets in case you need a little extra warmth). From the space to the food to the staff, everything at Basi is perfection. Some of my favorite meals and moments from living in Columbus have been at Basi.
The Jack Roth Fund’s annual 5K Rock ’N’ Run Although the run started out as my brainchild 14 years ago, it’s the work of many people that make it come to life. After losing my dad, Jack, to lung cancer (he was a healthy runner and not a smoker) at the age of 57, I wanted to do something to raise awareness and money so we could prevent future families from going through the same awful loss. I knew nothing about starting a run, so I enlisted the help of my dad’s friend, and he suggested we also incorporate the organization that my dad fought so tirelessly for — a camp for special needs children in Israel through the Masorti Foundation. The run is not only a 5K but a family and community event in Bexley that is highly anticipated every year. To date, we have raised over $1.3 million for both the vital research and treatment necessary to combat lung cancer, and to support the Jack Roth Camp Netaim program in Israel.

Bluescreek Farm Meats & Market It’s understandable if this former North Market butcher shop has dropped off your radar since relocating to Plain City a couple years back. But the wholeanimal butcher, from-scratch cafe and traditional bakery (which also prepares a slate of gluten-free items) is worth the not-really-that-far trip. –Jim Fischer “Better Call Saul” Some critics have already started to whisper that this “Breaking Bad” prequel, which recently started airing its fourth season, is better than “Breaking Bad.” I’d caution to pump the breaks a bit, but the AMC series is so spectacularly good that I think the conversation can be had. Bob Odenkirk (Jimmy McGill/Saul Goodman) has never been better in any role, and Jonathan Banks (Mike Ehrmantraut) is a national treasure. –Andy Downing “Revisionist History” I just finished listening to the third season of “Revisionist History,” Malcom Gladwell’s podcast on misunderstood and overlooked people and events from the past. Recent episodes touched on semicolon usage, Sammy Davis, Jr. hugging Richard Nixon, Brian Williams’ bad memory and Elvis’ inability to correctly perform the bridge of “Are You Lonesome Tonight?” Regardless of the topic, Gladwell’s storytelling is topnotch. He’s also quite persuasive. –Joel Oliphint Aretha Franklin Although I am young-ish, I can say I was alive when a popular, top-40 Aretha Franklin song was released. “A Rose Is Still a Rose,” penned by Lauryn Hill, came out in 1998, and was ubiquitous on R&B radio and in my house. But of course the singer achieved legendary status decades before with anthems like “Respect” and “Think,” and her widespread influence on 20thcentury popular music. I join the millions worldwide in keeping the Queen of Soul in our thoughts and prayers following the news of her illness. –Erica Thompson

Can a growing genre that’s built on a black art form and embraces the rebel flag ever be more than a curiosity?

n the months leading up to a planned July concert headlined by Upchurch the Redneck at Alrosa Villa, flyers started to appear in the neighborhood surrounding the North Side venue. “[Upchurch] misrepresents Hip-Hop Culture to advocate white supremacy,” the flyer read. “He also makes YouTube videos vilifying African Americans, Muslims, immigrants, women, and the LGBTQIA community.”
The flyer also included a section labeled “in his own words,” though all of the selected passages, largely taken from Upchurch videos posted to YouTube, weren’t entirely accurate. “You must stone cold stoner to death every radical Muslim you can find,” one read, bold text included. In the YouTube video, posted the day after President Donald Trump’s election win, Upchurch actually says, “You must stone-cold stun-
ner as many radical Muslims as you can find,” referencing a move popularized by professional wrestler “Stone Cold” Steve Austin. Of course, in the same video, Upchurch doesn’t shy from some of the more legitimate criticisms lobbed his way in the flyer. “Go ahead, call me racist,” says the controversy-courting country rapper, born Ryan Upchurch outside Nashville, Tennessee. “Fuck you. My president’s white.”
But in early June, with more than 2,000 tickets sold for what promoters said was going to be Alrosa’s first outdoor concert in 17 years, Upchurch abruptly canceled his appearance just six weeks out. The rapper’s management followed up with a statement that read, in part, “We are now reevaluating the remainder of the dates for the year and are having to cancel the show at Alrosa Villa due to the protesters and negativity
surrounding the date.” “This genre, and especially an artist like Upchurch, is very controversial,” said Lancaster, Ohio, rapper and tattoo artist Rich Regal, who, working with Columbus Events Group, helped organize the Upchurch show (CEG and Regal are responsible for booking virtually all of the country-rap concerts in the Southern Ohio region). “I anticipated at some point there being some negativity.”
rebel flag by brushing aside any racial connotations, describing it as a symbol of Southern pride and nothing more. “This is 100 percent a symbol of ‘I’m proud to be from Alabama,’ which is why it’s tattooed next to the Alabama state flag,” said country rapper Mike Bama prior to an early August headlining show at Club Voodoos in the Brewery District, pointing to the dual flags inked on his bicep. Outside of the growingbut-isolated hick-hop scene, however, the image can carry a heavier, more painful weight — existing as a reminder of slavery, as well as of the racial hatred and violence that continue to exist in its wake. (For instance, Dylann Roof, a white supremacist and neo-Nazi who shot and killed nine African-Americans in a church in Charleston, South Carolina, posed in photos with the Confederate battle flag in the months leading up to the 2015 massacre.) “[The Confederate flag] 100 percent represents racism. … It’s everything American ideals are not supposed to be,” said Columbus rapper and musician Sarob. “I’m an outsider to hickhop, and there are some details that I’m just ignorant about, I’m sure. But the Confederate flag is just not welcome. It’s not welcome to me as a hiphop artist. It’s not welcome to me as a black person. It’s not welcome to me as an American citizen. It’s not welcome to me on any level. “I wish there was a more profound way to say it, but hip-hop is something that was created by black and brown people, that has very political roots. I don’t know if [country rap embracing] the Confederate flag is a conscious attempt to undermine what hip-hop represents, but I do think it’s an insult to the genre and to those roots.”

rowing up poor in Southern Ohio, Regal said he often felt like an outsider. In past interviews he described living in a trailer with holes worn in the floor, under the thumb of a stepfather with whom he maintained a contentious relationship. As a youngster, he discovered some sense of camaraderie listening to hiphop artists like Scarface, the Notorious B.I.G. and Bone Thugsn-Harmony. (Regal’s daughter, Harmony Sincere, even takes her name from a combination of the Ohio hip-hop group, as well as Nas’ character from the movie “Belly,” Sincere.) “My mom did everything she could, but there were a lot of things in my life that made me feel like, ‘This is hell,’” Regal said. “I felt like a lot of the hip-hop I was drawn toward was people telling their stories. Like the Scarface song ‘Smile,’ you
listen to a song like that and you feel it. … Hip-hop explained a lot of the aggression and anger I was feeling, even if it was in different words than I would have used.” In addition, hip-hop helped open up Regal’s admittedly secluded, largely white world. “My grandpa, who I never met, went to the Boys’ Industrial School with David Allan Coe, so you can get some idea of the close-minded country boys I lived near growing up,” Regal said, referring to the Ohio reformatory. “At the same time, my mom always pushed me to respect everyone. I literally have ‘respect’ tattooed under my beard here, and that’s for two reasons: One, because that’s the word the world goes around on, and, two, because if you don’t show me it you’re going to be looking up at it.” Most recently, Regal, who owns Modified Studios Tattoo Gallery in Lancaster, launched
THE CONFEDERATE FLAG IS JUST NOT WELCOME. IT’S NOT WELCOME TO ME AS A HIP-HOP ARTIST. IT’S NOT WELCOME TO ME AS A BLACK PERSON. IT’S NOT WELCOME TO ME AS AN AMERICAN CITIZEN. IT’S NOT WELCOME TO ME ON ANY LEVEL.

a program providing free cover-up work of hate tattoos, transforming swastikas into slices of pizza covered in dripping cheese, among other technically impressive feats of tattooing. “Richie has made it a point to combat racism in very racist spaces like tattooing, and in rural areas,” said Columbus rapper Sam Rothstein. “That’s not an easy stand to make, either, in Lancaster.” Beginning with F.H.S.P., a currently inactive collaboration with rapper Zachariah Ka1ne, and later as a solo artist, Regal pursued a more straightforward hip-hop career for the better part of a decade. It’s only been within the last year that the heavily tattooed MC started experimenting with hick-hop, believing it a better reflection of his upbringing and current lifestyle.
ColumbusAlive.com | Thursday, August 16, 2018
In recent years, country rap, often called hick-hop, has grown from a musical curiosity to a regional force — despite receiving little to no assistance from the mainstream music industry — making stars of artists like Upchurch, Colt Ford and Big Smo. The Lacs, a Georgia duo whose name is an abbreviation for “loud-ass crackers,” has even landed two albums in the top five on both the Billboard rap and country charts, and artists within the genre regularly register millions of views on YouTube. The 2017 video for Upchurch’s “Hillbilly” has now been viewed more than 17 million times, and his 2015 video for “Can I Get a Outlaw” has racked up 35 million views. Locally, the growth has been slower but noticeable, with an increase in bookings both large (Alrosa has become one scene hub, hosting concerts on a bimonthly basis; next up is the Lacs on Saturday, Aug. 25) and small, with market-building shows featuring smaller names staged at venues such as Bethel Road Pub on the Northwest Side. Country rap has also stirred its fair share of controversy, ranging from Upchurch’s YouTube diatribes, which frequently contain racially charged language that has led to him being suspended from social-media platforms on multiple occasions, to fans and artists within the genre who openly embrace the Confederate flag — a symbol of racial hatred to many that some critics consider incongruous with hip-hop, which is foremost a black art form. (In a September 2017 video for the online site HipHopDX, Minneapolis rapper Murs examined this dichotomy, asking, “Does hick-hop have a right to exist?”) Artists within country rap have generally addressed any controversy surrounding the

“Where did we fit in this whole time? We grew up in the country but we listen to hip-hop, and there was never any lane for that,” Regal said. “Now I’m doing a lot of the same things with music I was before, but instead of talking about pulling up to the club, I’m pulling up in the field, which is a lot more relevant for me. … Not that I was faking it before, but I couldn’t express myself to that full extent, and now I can.” Mike Bama expressed similar sentiments. Growing up in Montgomery, Alabama, the MC, who announced himself onstage at Club Voodoos as “the loudmouth redneck from the 334,” would spend his free time fishing, hunting and riding allterrain vehicles — a lifestyle far
removed from the one flaunted by the hip-hop artists to whom he gravitated as a young music fan, including Atlanta rappers T.I. and Ludacris. This started to change as country rap artists grew in prominence beginning in the early 2000s, particularly Bubba Sparxxx — a bruising MC often viewed as the godfather of the current hick-hop movement, which many trace to the 2001 release of his Dark Days, Bright Nights. (For his part, Sparxxx, who rapped from within a pigpen in the video for his breakout song, “Ugly,” has made a point to distance himself from the genre, telling Rolling Stone earlier this year, “I don’t want to be looked at as starting anything that’s not reflective of caring about hip-
hop culture as much as I care about hip-hop culture.”) “I went to high school with so many people who just listen to country and rap — exclusively those two genres. They like hearing country music when they’re drunk and sad, and rap music when they’re drunk and dancing at the bar,” said rapper Rothstein, who grew up in Lancaster but has eschewed appearing on bills aside countryrap artists for fear of coming off like a role player (“I would have felt like a poseur trying to act like I’m this hillbilly character, which I’m not”). “From a marketing standpoint, hick-hop has a ton of potential because there are hundreds of small towns filled with people who want to express
themselves, and who want to hear the music that’s going inside of them,” Rothstein continued. “That’s how any musical movement starts out: It’s a reflection of what the people who support it want to hear. And who’s to say that guy doesn’t deserve a voice musically? That he doesn’t deserve the peace and comfort that an artist who is speaking to his experience can give him? “But it is interesting how popular it’s becoming. And how separate and parallel it is to hip-hop. I guess that’s where I let hick-hop off the hook. These guys aren’t trying to bash their way into predominantly black hip-hop spaces. They’re not trying to kick the door down and have everyone accept them. They’re just off doing their own thing.”

THERE’S AN INNER BATTLE GOING ON ABOUT, ‘YOU’RE NOT COUNTRY ENOUGH,’ ColumbusAlive.com | Thursday, August 16, 2018
OR THAT YOU HAVE
16
TO BE A CERTAIN LEVEL OF COUNTRY TO DO HICK-HOP. MIKE BAMA
ountry rap, by and large, does exist in isolation. Hiphop circles have given the movement little credence (though long-running rap group Nappy Roots did perform select dates on the Lacs’ 2017 “Deplorables Tour”), and thus far it’s been a nonfactor on mainstream country radio. “There’s an inner battle going on about, ‘You’re not country enough,’ or that you have to be a certain level of country to do hick-hop,” Bama said. “And I’m like, ‘What is country enough?’ Is there a rating system?’” Because of this, rather than existing as a branch of the hip-hop family tree, hick-hop often feels siloed from the art form, which gives rise to fears in rappers like Rothstein, who expressed concern that hickhop could become rap music for white, rural audiences who don’t want to be around black performers or fans. “I’ve seen it, and I try to stay away from those artists,” said Regal, who said he generally
takes extra care while booking shows to avoid bringing in acts he views as problematic. (Regal rejected one hick-hop artist who inquired about performing in Columbus after listening to a song that included the line, “And fuck Black Lives Matter.”) Mike Bama, in turn, said a lot of the responsibility for this falls on the shoulders of those within the genre, many of whom, he believes, haven’t done enough to give due credit to the black artists who pioneered the form. “Half of hick-hop wants to be so country that they only talk about the country people they listen to and not the rap they listen to every day,” said Bama. “That’s some of the disconnect, I think. Too many people haven’t paid homage and said, ‘Thank you for allowing us this opportunity.’” Regal agreed. “If you’re going to do any art form, you should have some understanding of how it originated,” he said. “I study tattooing and learn as much as I can about how the art started so that I can get a better idea of where it’s going. It’s the same thing with music. Most good guitar players know their history, and they pay respect to the vets. You don’t pick up a guitar and say, ‘Forget those guys. … I created this.’ No. It all started with this base.” Regardless, there will always be select country-rap fans for whom race remains a factor, if not an outright draw. One white, 30-something audience member at the Club Voodoos showcase headlined by Bama and Regal drew a clear color line in conversation. “Hip-hop speaks mainly to their culture, where hick-hop speaks to our culture,” said the man, who wore a T-shirt advertising the group “Bikers Against Radical Islam” and said of the Confederate flag, “It has no racial meaning to it whatsoever.”
Rich Regal

“You know what? We’ve listened to [white, rural America] a very long time. … Maybe they have to extend that courtesy to other people, too,” countered Sarob. “White people have advantages, so when they tell other people they need to listen, or when they tell black people they need to listen, or they tell Arab or Muslim people they need to listen, or Hispanic people or immigrants, it’s like, no. We’ve had to accommodate. We’ve had to extend courtesies. ... We’ve had to learn how to acquiesce to whiteness and white dominance and white supremacy. I feel the most privileged thing you can try to do is tell somebody else how they should feel about something when they’ve been oppressed for so long.” Even within hick-hop, embrace of the flag is not consistent across the board. Artists
like Big Smo and Struggle Jennings haven’t promoted it, and even the Lacs, which proudly launched the “Deplorables Tour” just last year, has distanced itself from the symbol slightly, with the duo’s manager telling Rolling Stone early in 2018 that it had stopped selling rebel-flag merchandise. Regal, for his part, said he can see the flag hindering the genre’s growth, particularly in a Northern state like Ohio. He also doesn’t view it as essential to hick-hop’s existence. “I think if they pulled it out of the genre entirely, it wouldn’t make a difference to the music, at all, and I think the genre could only progress,” said Regal, who also said he couldn’t envision instituting a no-flag policy at the shows, pointing to fears of censorship and the potential for right-wing blowback. “Not all of
us are flying that flag. We can do this without it.” It’s a difficult balance for Regal, who would like to see increased racial diversity at hick-hop shows, which he said are currently dominated by white audiences. In an effort to cultivate ground between hick-hop and hip-hop crowds, Regal even hosted an after-party at the August Club Voodoos concert featuring more traditional Columbus rappers such as Drew West, who spoke to the difficulty of the mission. “It’s kind of hard to cross those genres,” West said. “It’s hard to say, ‘I love hip-hop but I love the Confederate flag.’ It’s like, ‘Whoa.’” “I would feel weird going to a show like that,” said local rapper Devin “Trek Manifest” Thomas. “I would feel on the defense the whole time, my head on a swivel.
What can I expect? I don’t know what type of energy is going to be at the shows. Am I going to be a target because of a song they’re singing or rapping or whatever?” Regal understands these fears but remains undeterred. In the future, he plans to add traditional hip-hop acts to his hick-hop bills and vice-versa, searching for a commonality he still believes exists within the forms. “I want to try and change minds,” Regal said. “Where I’m from, you go to any of those country bars down there, they’re playing country most of the night, and then right about midnight everything changes and you get Flo Rida and ‘Drop It Low’ and they’re out there in boots and cowboy hats dropping it low. And it’s been like that forever. I know I can make this work.”

hile not prevalent, the rebel flag was present during the Club Voodoos concert, appearing on what looked to be a fan-made Upchurch T-shirt (complete with “I (heart) Upchurch” written in puff paint) and tattooed on the arm of headliner Mike Bama. “I get the issues people have with the flag, but I had the opportunity to open a show for (R&B singer) Bobby Valentino in Alabama back in 2015, and I was the only white person in the building,” said Bama. “I had a rebel flag shirt on, sleeveless, so you could see my rebel flag tattoo, and never once was I questioned. “If it offends someone, I’m always willing to have an open and engaged conversation with them. What about it offends you? … Most of the time when I tell people what it means to me, they see there’s no disrespect.”

RichaRd lloyd By Joel oliphint
R
ichard Lloyd was born in Pittsburgh but spent his teens in New York City, where he got his rock ’n’ roll education via local clubs.
“I was like a sponge. It gets a certain amount of liquid in it, and then it’s saturated. I pretty well saturated myself. … It’s such a rich period in anyone’s life, those teenage years,” said Lloyd recently by phone from his home in Chatta-
nooga, Tennessee — a city that offered a reprieve from the fast pace of New York when he moved there two years ago. (“There’s no pace here. Zero pace,” he said.) Early on, Lloyd, who would go on to play guitar in seminal proto-punk act Television, figured out that musicians would let a teenage guitarist stick around on one condition. “I kept my mouth shut,” he said. “You can stay in the back room or the dressing room longer if you’re nice and quiet. I was
always a quiet guy. … I looked like a baby. I was this little kid there. I was just absorbing energies.” Through a happenstance friendship, Lloyd learned to play guitar from Jimi Hendrix. Sort of. In the late ’60s, Lloyd met a kid from Brooklyn named Velvert Turner who claimed to not only know Hendrix — he said Hendrix gave him guitar lessons. No one believed Turner except Lloyd, who would practice with Turner and absorb the legendary guitarist’s lessons secondhand.
“The first time I talked to Jimi [Hendrix] I ended up getting punched by him. We were all very drunk. That’s just the way it goes.” RIcHaRd LLoyd
in his solo albums, starting with 1979’s Alchemy. In 2009 he released The Jamie Neverts Story, a collection of Jimi Hendrix covers that’s indebted to Velvert Turner as much as Hendrix. “I wanted to do [Hendrix’s] shorter songs with Chas Chandler, not the guitar hero stuff like ‘Voodoo Child’ or ‘Machine Gun,’” he said. “I did all stuff from his first and second record. It was a hell of a lot of fun and very pop-oriented. I love that stuff. His second record is probably my favorite record. If I had to only take one [record] into outer space, I would take that one.” Lloyd said he and his band will play songs from all throughout his career when they visit Ace of Cups on Sunday, Aug. 19. He’s also set to release a new, 10-track solo album in November on Plowboy Records. “It’s called The Countdown,” he said. “It’s the first record in 18 years that I didn’t engineer myself.” Despite previous and forthcoming solo albums, Lloyd is often billed as “Richard Lloyd of Television.” But the guitarist doesn’t mind being forever associated with the band he played in as a young man. “It’s where I made my mark. I can’t cut off my nose to spite my face,” he said. “I’ve done a lot since then. It’s not the whole of my life; it’s just an enormously big chapter. That first record, Marquee Moon, still sells. I’ll never get away from that. It’s not an albatross. It’s just a period of time where I did something important.”

Soon enough, Lloyd found himself at a show alongside Hendrix, but this time he couldn’t keep his mouth shut. “The first time I talked to Jimi I ended up getting punched by him,” Lloyd said. “We were all very drunk. That’s just the way it goes. I thought it was a wonderful thing … an honor — a lot like Keith Richards getting punched by Chuck Berry.” Lloyd, 66, recounts this story and others in his book, Everything is Combustible, a series of vignettes that encompasses everything from his childhood, Television’s role in the CBGB-centered New York punk scene of the mid-1970s, his battles with drug addiction and the spirituality undergirding his experiences. “I’ve been telling stories for a long, long time. ... I’ve got a photographic memory. I have a good aural memory, too. I can remember what people said 40, 50 years ago,” said Lloyd, who loved language from an early age. “I read the dictionary as it if was a novel. It was very exciting to me. I read the Encyclopedia Britannica. I loved to read.” He did not, however, love to type. “I learned typing in high school and I hated it, and I hate it now,” he said. “[Everything is Combustible] was about 10 years in the writing all together, and I did it with no typing. I did it completely orally with voice recognition software.” While Television was instrumental in creating the punk scene, the band’s nowlegendary 1977 debut album, Marquee Moon, is a far cry from the punk rock of a band like the Sex Pistols, which released its debut across the pond that same year. Television hinged on the interplay between guitarists Lloyd and Tom Verlaine. Their tense, spiky riffs laid the groundwork for post-punk acts to come. Lloyd’s love of a good pop song came through in Television and later

Red Threads originated as a conversation between bandmates Stacie Laparo (bass/vocals), Rachael Catherine Anderson (guitar/vocals) and Ray Gun the Savage (drums/vocals). “We started out drawing together, and doing laundry together,” Ray Gun said. “And one laundry day we were talking about how we were all musicians and wanted to try playing music together,” Laparo continued. The dialogue continues on the trio’s cassette debut, Out of the Blue, which it will celebrate with a release show at Cafe Bourbon St. on Thursday, Aug. 16. Songs such as “Spill,” which builds around Laparo’s pliant bassline, and the eerie, slow-burning “Mr. Baby,” unfold like musical conversations, with the players frequently trading off the lead role as the others respond and react in the moment. Most of the songs took
shape in the band’s basement rehearsal space in Linden — a dark, chill-inducing room illuminated by a red light — which emitted an ominous vibe that bleeds over into the music. “Everything we try to do is, I don’t want to say downtrodden, but maybe witchy,” Anderson said. “I know that’s very popular these days, but there is something cool about being women and then personifying the monster that is woman, which is the witch.” This witchy vibe has a way of casting shadows on even seemingly innocuous words and phrases. When the bandmates sing, “All she did was run her mouth” on “Mr. Baby,” for instance, the brooding music has a way of filling in the gaps, making listeners wonder what exactly happened to the woman in the song, while accepting that it probably wasn’t good. “I’d been in a band for five years that was really saccharine and poppy, and that wasn’t really my background,” said Ray Gun,
formerly of the Girls! “I was looking forward to taking a break from something that was so sweet.” While the music frequently is born of jamming, lyrical inspiration can come from anywhere, be it the “A Nightmare on Elm Street” universe (“Dream Warriors” takes its name from the third installment in the series) or the digital addictions that have become commonplace within modern society. “Head in the cloud/ Walk your day upside down,” the band sings on the cassette’s title track. “I was thinking about people being on their phones and on the internet and some of the disconnect from reality that can happen when you spend too much time in the cloud,” Laparo said. Moving forward, the band expects these musical conversations to continue to evolve. Ray Gun described the making of this cassette, which the trio recorded in April with Jah Nada of Bloody Show, as Red Threads finding its footing, establishing a strong foundation for future endeavors. “For me, the first song we wrote after this record, ‘Petty Things,’ was kind of the come together moment,” she said. “That was the time where I was like, ‘Oh, this is sustainable. … There’s still so much in us.’”

Before Ian Graham moved to Columbus from Marysville about two years ago, he set a goal for himself. “I want that immortality,” Graham said on a recent weekday morning at a Clintonville cafe. “I don’t know if I ever will have children, so I wanted this thing to be laying around long after I’m gone.” The “thing” he’s referring to is the new self-titled record from Terrestrials, one of several bands Graham has started or joined since coming to town. After fronting twopiece trash-pop act Tasty, the 23-year-old now plays bass in Bloody Show, guitar in Ouija Boys and drums in Thee Thee’s, a newish project with Myra Power, formerly of D.C. punk-rock trio Slant 6. But in Terrestrials, a trippy garage-pop five-piece, Graham is solely a frontman — a role he was initially nervous about, though you wouldn’t know it watching the red-faced singer bounce and gyrate and shimmy across stages in low-lit rock clubs. Bassist Jason Womeldorph, who previously played in Between the Devil & the Deep Blue Sea, Lauren Hospital and Moons, helped launch Terrestrials in 2014 with a different lineup, though original guitarist Dave Treneff (Night of Pleasure, Turquoise Feeling) and keyboardist Steve Broeder (Outer Spacist) remain in this Graham-led version (drummer Rich Meara rounds out the lineup). The band
will celebrate its new Heel Turn Records album with a release show at Ace of Cups on Friday, Aug. 17. “I wanted Terrestrials to be better than any other band that’s around right now, because a lot of bands bore the shit out of me, and I just want this to not be a boring band,” said Graham, who initially made a name for himself in town through the beloved but short-lived Rock and Roll Radio Show on 1270AM. Graham is the baby in Terrestrials (three out of the five members have kids), but that’s nothing new for him. “Everyone I surround myself with are 10 years my senior. And I’ve been told pretty much my entire life, ‘You’re such an old soul.’ It makes me feel ancient,” he said. For the self-titled album, recorded by Bloody Show’s Jah Nada, Graham set out to make a space opera. And while the finished product is rife with layers of psychedelic synthesizer and astronomical tangents (“The dads like to jam,” Graham said), he changed course from that initial vision. “The more I thought about it I was like, ‘No, stay grounded. Write about Earth’s issues, Earth problems.’ And there are a lot of them,” he said. “Thematically, it’s about taking care of shit at home.”

Kathryn Shinko will present “I’m Ready to Be Set on Fire Now” Saturday at 934 Gallery.
24
KaThryn shinKO ‘i’m ready TO Be seT On Fire nOw’ By Jim Fischer • PhOTOs By juurrddd Kathryn Shinko is in love. And she wasn’t ready for it. It’s messy and convoluted and not at all like the old songs, movies and stories said it would be. “It’s the most complicated thing ever,” said Shinko, a textile artist, in a recent phone interview. “I swear the first couple days … it literally felt like my body was
on fire. I was shaking for two days. It was rough, constantly shaking, feeling like my body was on fire. When you’re in love, you get scared that you’re dying, at least I do.” It’s all of these “disorienting aspects of being in love,” Shinko said, that she’s exploring in her new performance art piece, “I’m Ready to Be Set on Fire Now,” which she will present Saturday, Aug. 18, at 934 Gallery. The work features a solitary Shinko seated on a rug, reading
original works of erotic poetry and then sewing the pieces of paper onto the rug with red thread. “When [you’re in love] there’s a whole new form of communication that happens between the body and mind and the outside world,” Shinko said. “Different sensualities become activated, become unlocked, and the sense of disorientation oftentimes comes out with odd things that really didn’t make sense before, like
taking long, hot, suffocating showers, or buying all your fruit in pairs. [It’s] just really beautiful and odd.” Creating a performance art piece has given Shinko a new avenue to employ long-used mediums. Her journey as a textile artist began with cross-stitch and embroidery, skills she learned from her mother. She found herself revisiting the techniques at the same time she was questioning her study in graphic design
pieces of paper and poems saved on the notepad app on my phone,” said Shinko, who not only organized the words and ideas but also re-wrote the poems in red ink on uniform pieces of paper. “I feel like words just kind of come into my head and I have to grab them, because they come in little trickles and bits and pieces. So I had to do some intentional prep for this show to take all those scraps of poems and shape them into some form.” Incorporating aspects of her textile work in “I’m Ready…” has proven freeing, in some respects. “With cross-stitch and embroidery, you have to plan every detail out ahead, and once that creating part is over, it’s just execution from there,” Shinko said. “To create something totally spontaneous and creative and in the moment is a nice relief from the textile work that I normally do.” She was also pleased at the sounds and sensations created when sewing the paper onto the rug during a rehearsal, again creating a different set of sensory reactions. “I’ve always wanted to do a performance art piece and, quite honestly, I’ve never really had the guts to do it,” said Shinko, adding that it’s always been easier to make art “and then kind of stand back and hide behind the visual.” “It takes guts to make yourself very vulnerable in that setting. It’s live. It’s immediate.”

at the University of Akron, ultimately asking herself, “Why can’t this be my art?” she said. Eventually, Shinko enrolled in the graduate program for textiles at Kent State University. Her work was socially informed — soft, comfortable and tactile fabric coupled with words that disarmed, challenging and questioning power systems and accepted oppressions. Her “Vignettes” series featured words used in URLs from online pornography sites set against scenes of natural wonder and beauty, creating stark reminders of the power of not just the images but also the words used in an industry that demeans women. The work was important but taxing, made even more difficult by the flood of socio-political art being made in recent years. “I feel like the current political climate has kind of poisoned the well, in a way,” Shinko said. “Part of the reason I got such a strong reaction from ‘Vignettes’ three short years ago was because saying those things and bringing those questions to light was still sort of taboo. I felt a little like a voice in the wilderness, saying, ‘Look at how we talk about women and how terrible all of this is.’ But in the current climate, and with everything that’s coming out now, it’s like a wound suddenly cut open and all the blood’s rushing out at once. It’s so much to deal with. Rather than contribute to it, I’ve found myself retreating into myself. A lot of the work I do now is very personal.” Like writing poems about love. “I’ve always written poems. I have poems scribbled on envelopes and scrap

“What do you want to know about my creepy ladies?” Adena Griffith asks, standing in the front gallery space at Blockfort, where her solo show, “Behind the Eyes, Below the Throat,” is on exhibit through Aug. 27. Indeed, the ceramic busts are of women, each accessorized with some creep-inducing element, whether it be snakes or mushroom-like plants or windows. Griffith called the pieces “self-portraits, in a way,” explaining that they’re not intended to look like her but that they do represent the way she was feeling at particular moments. This was nothing new for Griffith. “I used to journal a lot when I was younger,” she said. “In my art history classes, I found I really appreciated the iconography and symbolism, and I was seeing contemporary art-
ists pushing together little things to make a story. So [I realized] I can make physical diary entries.” The moments she was chronicling for “Behind the Eyes…” were difficult. She was coming off a period of artistic inactivity, even to the point of giving up making art. Coincidentally, she was trying to cope with what she would learn was depression in the wake of the birth of her fourth daughter. “This work is about the depression and anxiety that was going on. … I knew something wasn’t right [and I’ve] come to find out it was postpartum,” she said. “It was self-loathing — not toward my children, just ‘worthless’ thoughts. Everybody goes through it, times when they’re thinking, ‘Why am I not good enough?’” When she was asked to do the show at Blockfort, Griffith took it as a sign. “I said, ‘OK, I’m gonna do it. This must be telling
me I should keep making,’” Griffith said. “So then it became all about trying to figure out what I was going to say, how to talk about what I’m going through now, and hopefully I can make some kind of artwork through it.” One of the things that drew Griffith to ceramics (a late-in-life artist, Griffith was a college student in her mid-20s studying zoology with no art background when she took her first ceramics class) was the therapeutic nature of working the clay with her hands. She added that viewers expressing similar experiences can be an additional benefit. “It makes you feel not so all alone,” she said. “[To know others] feel and understand that pain, it helps you heal and grow.” Perhaps her ladies aren’t so creepy, after all.

Amber Falter and Pat Deering will host a lineup of standup comedians at Stand Up for Choice on Aug. 21.
sTand up For choice By Jim Fischer Before Amber Falter was immersed in the Columbus stand-up scene, and before she was a veteran show producer, she booked four comics for an April 2016 benefit show in support of a local pro-choice organization. “I had no idea what I was doing. Thankfully, [the four comedians] are still my friends,” Falter recalled. The show, intended as a one-off, was a success, and friends, notably comedian Pat Deering, suggested she keep doing them. Deering is now a partner in the quarterly Stand Up for Choice shows. “It’s become this really beautiful, comfortable, safe space,” Falter said, adding that there’s a growing community that’s being built around

Stand Up for Choice. “It’s not just a quarterly comedy show. It’s people being alongside each other. The comedians are honest, and the audience then feels more empowered in their own stories. There’s a willingness to be vulnerable, and along with great jokes you’re getting difficult personal stories. It’s not just about raising money, but also awareness.” Bridget Denman, Brooke Cartus, Keith Bergman and Samantha Rager will be featured in the Aug. 21 edition, which raises funds for Freedom of Choice Ohio.

One may achieve excellence in our chosen field but majority of us fail when it comes to dealing with life’s challenges. If excellence is not developed in all aspects of our life, somewhere or the other we will falter. Come and learn - not the knowledge of becoming excellent, but exceeding it in all aspects of life.

‘Crazy riCh asians’ By Brad Keefe
Confession: I have a soft spot for unabashed, crowd-pleasing rom-coms — the kind that is so glossy and cheesy you just have to go with it. “Crazy Rich Asians” is a superb example of this. It’s lively and funny and sweet. It’s not a musical, but the whole movie just sings. Added bonus: Its star-studded cast is a great leap in representation of AsianAmericans from a big Hollywood film. Rachel Chu (Constance Wu) is a native New Yorker and economics professor at a university. She’s excited for her first trip to Asia, accompanying her boyfriend, Nick (Henry Golding), to his best friend’s wedding in Singapore. Handsome, kind and charming, Nick has kept a secret from Rachel — the kind of secret that only guys in romantic comedies like this keep — his family is one of the wealthiest in Asia. So Rachel enters his world of high society with trepidation. Nick’s mother (Michelle Yeoh) bristles at the idea of her son, one of China’s most eligible bachelors, settling down with a commoner. “Crazy Rich Asians” is certainly more welcoming than Nick’s mother. It’s a colorful rom-com that plays like a big Hallmark movie, and I mean that as a compliment.
Its Singapore setting won’t teach you as much about modern Chinese culture as it will about the culture of the ultra-elite. It’s opulent, although most of its inhabitants are as likable and grounded as Nick. It shies from making much commentary about the wealthy, but it’s set in almost another world. Director Jon M. Chu spares little in visual razzle-dazzle. The energy feels a lot like “La La Land” … again, without songs. Chu checks off many of the cliche boxes on the rom-com list, but the target audience won’t mind a bit. Wu oozes the kind of “fish out of water” charms that made Julia Roberts a generational star with “Pretty Woman.” And if the movie has a scene-stealer, it’s rapper and actress Awkwafina, making the most of the requisite quirky friend role. “Crazy Rich Asians” bubbles along with enough joy to make an audience overlook the absurdities of the story. This is the first adaptation of the popular trilogy of books by Kevin Kwan, and I’m looking forward to future installments. It’s the anti-“Fifty Shades of Grey.”

y first impression of CoreLife Eatery: It’s another fast-casual establishment that features healthyminded, customizable bowls and salads. My second impression of CoreLife Eatery: This restaurant chain sounds like a spin-off from a line of fitness equipment. (It isn’t.) My lasting impression of the CoreLife Eatery in the Lennox Town Center (I didn’t visit the CoreLife in the Polaris area): When factoring in flavor, price and dishes packed with nutritious ingredients, this overachieving eatery is hard to beat.
Occupying a sprawling space with patio seating in a strip-mall parking lot (some of it beneath a trellis) and a capacious, open interior with simple tables, padded booths and pictures of folks flaunting an active lifestyle (biking, doing yoga, etc.), CoreLife looks what is: a slick, spotlessly maintained corporate operation. It’s only after ordering from a potentially confusing menu with seemingly endless combinations, and moving through the cafeteria-style line, paying and waiting for helpful servers to quickly prepare meals, that diners find out how flavorful, texturally appealing and genre-
eclipsing the dishes are here. Kudos to whoever developed CoreLife’s impressive corporate recipes, which typically enhance good base ingredients with judiciously applied herbs, bright acidic components and various hot sauces. The culture-hopping results outclass most competitors, and often at lower prices. Take, for example, the sizable GrassFed Steak Bowl, starring lean-but-flavorpacked and far-from-cheap meat. The pre-sliced beef arrives nicely seared and with a spice-crusted exterior and pink interior. Add on quinoa, plus a rewarding
root-veggie medley scented with herbs, and the tab is only $10.95. The Tuna Poke grain bowl ($10.45), with a lively miso-sesame-ginger dressing, is another highlight. A generous collection of fresh-tasting fish cubes coated in black and white sesame seeds is accompanied by a nifty, texturally dynamic salad made with napa cabbage, edamame, cucumbers, quinoa, toasted almond slivers, avocado, kale that doesn’t give your jaws a workout, and more. It’s filling, refreshing, superhealthful, delicious and inexpensive. What more could you want?
Yoga instructor Heather Yost and Tuna Poke grain bowl
cubes of good-tasting stew meat. Beef bone broth has been having a culinary moment lately, and CoreLife’s version hits the right note — it’s oily enough to make your lips slick. Prefer soups that are less rich? The cheese-kissed, alluring Tomato and Basil bisque ($5.45) receives thickness from pureed cauliflower rather than cream, and the Coconut Curry Chicken Noodle ($6.95) has a pleasant, Thai-style sour quality offset by coconut milk. Like practically everything else here, CoreLife’s selection of house soft drinks, such as the lemonade-based Watermelon Agua Fresca ($3) and the refreshingly tart Tropical Punch ($3), is cuts above what you’ll get from most of its competitors.

How about something without animal protein, you ask? No problem. Try the Sriracha Ginger Roasted Tofu “green bowl” ($7.95). Soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger and plenty of well-integrated hot sauces make this bold jumble of firm bean curd, slivered broccoli, spicy sprouts, baby spinach, tender kale and other veggies as flavorful as it is nutritious. Grilled, tender, antibiotic-free chicken breast cubes grace a few dishes, too. And both the Southwest Grilled Chicken Purple Rice Blend ($8.95), which is like a decked-out burrito-bowl salad with romaine lettuce and tortilla strips, and the Spicy Chicken Rice Bowl ($9.95) — sauteed squashes, spinach, pickled onions and extra-zippy, but not crispy, green falafel are among its many accompaniments — are good picks. Frankly, though, I didn’t suffer a single stinker during multiple visits. This includes the Spicy Ginger Steak Rice Noodle soup ($8.95), made with nutrient-rich beef bone broth and a few

Upon entering Craft & Vinyl, which opened in Grandview on Wednesday, Aug. 15, you’ll count no less than 10 gleaming guitars on display. It’s a far cry from what owner Troy Stacy had access to growing up. “I was lucky to have $200 for a guitar, and that was top-of-the-line,” he said in an early-August interview. “You had to work weeks to get that money. And I just think it’ll be special for a young person to come in and be able to pick up a $3,000 Gibson Les Paul and see the sonic difference, and hopefully that will inspire them.” You heard right. Stacy encourages musicians to use his guitars and other available instruments, as Craft & Vinyl is a recording studio, craft beer bar and vinyl record shop all wrapped up in one. “All these things go together like peanut butter and chocolate,” Stacy said of the business model, which is the first of its kind in the city. He revamped the building, tearing up two layers of old, commercial carpet to reveal 85-year-old hardwood floors, and raised the ceiling 4 feet. The chic new space features pinball machines, a wood table and bar with yellow stools, and black couches in a cozy lounge area. The walls are decorated with Mike Martin’s rock poster art. “He just

has this massive, 20-year archive of stuff, and the world doesn’t get to see it,” Stacy said. The beer, sold in cans, bottles and on draft, is a combination of local, regional and statewide offerings, with a couple domestic options thrown in. The music is a combination of used vinyl donated from the now-closed Ace in the Hole Music exchange, as well as new, 180-gram selections. “We used some data [to determine] the cornerstone albums that everybody needs to have,” Stacy explained. “And then [we’ll] get the neighborhood to tell us what they dig.” Though Stacy is a drummer in local rock band Crushing Gravity,
he’s had success in the hip-hop world. Previously, as the vice president of marketing for Ratti Records, he earned platinum and gold records for his work on the “Bulworth” and “Blade” soundtracks, respectively. Additionally, while working in promotions, he was able to get Columbus band Zedos’ music placed on MTV. “And I never had to leave [the city],” Stacy said. “You can get your foot into the music industry and still maintain your roots in Columbus, Ohio, and I think it’s important for people to know that. And hopefully this little place becomes a little jumping-off spot to help kids [and others] do that.”
Ill Mannered Brewing Company recently opened its new brewery and taproom in Powell. The facility, not even 100 yards to the east of its old space, is a new standalone building that features quadruple the brewing space, a 1,500-square-foot taproom, a 1,400-square-foot patio and a designated parking spot for food trucks. The opening arrives just in time for Ill Mannered’s third anniversary celebration on Saturday, Aug. 18. Beginning at noon and ending around 10 p.m., the festivities include an assortment of barrel-aged and cellared beers on tap, including a brut IPA and a Russian imperial stout. The Pit BBQ Grille food truck will also be on site. Tom Ayers, head brewer for Ill Mannered, said the reaction to the new space has been overwhelming. “It’s been an incredible response,” he said. “It’s been really busy. We’re trying our best to keep up.” Founded in 2015 by four homebrewing friends, Ill Mannered began its life in a small storefront in a Powell strip mall. The brewery has retained the original location for storage, and Ayers said the brewery’s intention is to use it for a private event space in the future, as well as a space for barrel-aging or mixed fermentation. Both Ayers and Greg Dannemiller — another one of the founders — now
work full-time at the brewery. The two came on board full-time roughly two years ago, around the time the brewery expanded capacity, added wholesale accounts and began searching for a new location. “We wanted to stay in the Powell community,” Ayers said. “So that was important to us, but there weren’t a lot of spaces that fit the bill for a brewery. We were looking at everything — from moving to adding a second location and anything in-between. We just kept focused on growing the business in any way that made sense. That meant we had to evaluate all options and keep an open mind. We were in active lease negotiations on several places, one of which would have added a second location; [another] two would have caused us to move.” In the end, the group began working with a developer to design and build out the new space close to the original Ill Mannered location. The brewery also added Tuesday hours, and plans to expand Sunday hours. It’s also planning to add hours to accommodate for Ohio State football games this fall.

INSTRUCTIONS: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle! ANSWER ON PAGE 42
