Rumors of a Rocket Raccoon/Rod Serling mashup were also unconfirmed The entire park is going to be revamped (“There’s a rumor that Tower of Terror will become a Guardians of the Galaxy ride, and it’s not completely full of crap,” April 11). There will be tons of Star Wars stuff. Also they are building up around the Toy Story ride and putting in a roller coaster there. The park is getting an overhaul with a lot of new rides. Honestly, turning Rock ’n’ Roller Coaster into a GOTG ride makes more sense. Megan Morrison-Nguyen, via Facebook

Not sure he can take credit for jobs being added, either. Most of what he pointed to in that area were service jobs and parttime work without benefits, so not all jobs are equally good. Furthermore, ACA and insurance benefits in general aren’t simply handouts. I have many Republican friends who praise ACA and condemn Scott for his failure to expand Medicaid and Medicare.

in favor of same-sex marriages last year. Recently, North Carolina lawmakers passed legislation that stops people from using a bathroom that doesn’t correspond to their biological sex. “Really, what lies at the center of this is a denial of our existence, denial of our identities,” she says. “The recent legislation that seeks to ban people from using the restroom is just trying to wish transgender people away. To see the proposed rule change from DCF, it was heartbreaking to see the word transgender struck
through. It’s like seeing our identities erased. We deserve dignity and respect.” Willard says DCF is under pressure from Gov. Rick Scott and “far-right organizations.” John Tupps, spokesperson for Scott, told NSF: “The governor’s office collaborates with all state agencies and we are fully aware of rulemaking going on at DCF. We encourage all parties to provide their input during this process.” DCF is accepting the public’s opinion on the proposed rule until April 15. –Monivette Cordeiro

fter high-profile backlash in several Southern states that have introduced anti-LGBT legislation, Florida officials are also coming under heavy criticism after backtracking on a proposal that would have protected LGBT foster youth from discrimination. The Department of Children and Families had proposed rule changes that would ban anti-LGBT bullying, discrimination and “conversion therapy,” which attempts to change a child’s sexual orientation or gender identity. But after objections from religious groups, the rule now bans discrimination or harassment “on the basis of a child’s race, national origin, religion, gender, disability, or any other characteristic. The words “gender expression, sexual orientation” were crossed out of the proposed rule. DCF Secretary Mike Carroll says the modified language in the rule expands protections for children “regardless of inherent traits, personal characteristics or past experiences.” “The business of child welfare should not be politicized,” says Carroll. “DCF absolutely does not and will not tolerate any discrimination against any vulnerable child for any reason. Every vulnerable child is entitled to our protection.” The Florida Baptist Children’s Homes and the Florida Conference of Catholic Bishops submitted letters to DCF in January opposing the original language. The Tampa Bay Times reported that the letters “refer to being transgender as a ‘mistaken belief’ and say setting aside gender identity and sexual orientation is
‘unwarranted.’” “The definition of ‘sexual orientation’ could encompass sexual conduct outside of marriage, thus legally affirming and specially protecting that conduct,” says Michael Sheedy, executive director of the Conference of Catholic Bishops, in the letter. “Clearly, every child should be safe from bullying and harassment in the care of state of Florida. An expectation of abstinence for school-aged children from sexual activity should be established.” The News Service of Florida reports that by late January, the language both religious groups opposed was gone. Last Friday at a hearing on the proposed rule, LGBT advocates and foster youth asked DCF to restore the proposed language. Hannah Willard, spokesperson for Equality Florida, says that like antidiscrimination protections against race, religion and national origin, LGBTQ youth need specific protections as well to provide a clear expectation that some behaviors won’t be tolerated. Between 20 and 40 percent of homeless youth in the U.S. identify as LGBTQ, according to Lambda Legal, a civil rights organization that focuses on these communities. “DCF asked child welfare advocates for recommendations,” she says. “It’s not accurate to say these protections are not needed when the department asked for them last year.” Willard says the controversy surrounding this proposed rule change in Florida is part of the larger backlash the LGBTQ community has faced across the country since the U.S. Supreme Court ruled

Florida’s latest anti-abortion law, a classic example of targeted regulation of abortion providers, snares women and clinics in ever-tighter restrictions BY MON IVETTE COR D EI R O
H
er husband had already moved on to his new life when Amanda found out she was pregnant. At 23, the Melbourne woman thought she had a loving marriage – until the day last September when her husband informed her they didn’t. Now she was single, and life was a fast-paced blur: getting a job that would support her 4-year-old and 1-year-old sons, filing divorce papers, finding a baby-sitter, deciding whether to attend nursing school, scheduling parental visits, making home payments and bills, and finding the fleeting hours in between to hold her baby tight. And now, a missed period. Another mouth to feed. Amanda (last name withheld to protect her privacy) says she called her ex-husband, who by that time had moved to a different state to be with someone else. When she told him she was pregnant, Amanda remembers he told her, “OK. Do what you want.”
So she made a choice for herself and her family. Amanda was about six weeks pregnant when she scheduled an appointment at the Planned Parenthood clinic in downtown Orlando. Her sister Chelsea drove an hour and a half from Altamonte Springs to Melbourne to pick her up and drive up to Orlando. They were running late, so Amanda called the clinic to let them know she would still be coming. “No, you’re just getting an ultrasound today,” the clinic receptionist told her. “You have to wait 24 hours.” The sisters listened in shock as the receptionist explained the law. The day before, Feb. 26, a law went into effect mandating that women must wait 24 hours after an ultrasound before undergoing the abortion procedure. The receptionist told Amanda and Chelsea that clinic staff had spent all day Friday trying to call their patients to let them know that they couldn’t have the
abortion they scheduled on Saturday and would have to come back on Wednesday, the other day the clinic does abortions. When the sisters finally arrived at the clinic, they waited with a room full of other upset women who had collected the funds, arranged days off work and traveled from different cities only to be denied by the state. Florida law requires women seeking an abortion to undergo an ultrasound, which they don’t have to look at, but must sign off on. Amanda says the doctor had to zoom in five times to show her the embryo, which looked like a tiny line on the ultrasound picture. Conservative lawmakers and Gov. Rick Scott supported the 2011 measure, theorizing that women would make a different decision after seeing the image. “It’s the biggest bunch of bullshit I’ve ever heard,” Amanda says. “Some of the girls waiting were telling the nurses, ‘We will pay you more, can you please just do

it today?’ If you’ve already mustered up the courage to call Planned Parenthood, show up, go through the ultrasound, what makes you think a couple of hours will change my mind?” But despite the mandatory ultrasounds and 24-hour waiting period, Florida’s lawmakers weren’t quite done. Three weeks ago, on March 25, Scott signed into law House Bill 1411, a seemingly innocuous bill that increases regulations on the 62 abortion clinics across the state. The bill is similar to laws in other states, most notably Texas, that critics call Targeted Regulation of Abortion Providers (TRAP) laws because they place onerous and medically unnecessary restrictions on abortion providers in an effort to close clinics. The Guttmacher Institute, a research organization that promotes reproductive rights and health, says as of 2016, 24 states across the country have some form of a TRAP law. Last year, almost 400 restrictions on abortion services were introduced into state legislatures, the Institute finds. The 2013 Texas law, which supporters say was meant to improve the standard of care and protect women (not make it so inconvenient to get a legal abortion that women will give up), is currently being challenged before the United States Supreme Court. Opponents argue it places undue burdens on women who want to end a pregnancy. If the Texas law stands, that would leave nine abortion clinics in that state. Anti-abortion activists and conservative lawmakers argue these laws are trying to protect women, not stopping the practice. But Laura Goodhue, executive director of the Florida Alliance of Planned Parenthood affiliates, says the laws are an extremely coordinated attack on women’s health care. In 2014, roughly 72,100 abortions were performed in Florida according to state health records, the Associated Press reports.
“None of this is medically necessary whatsoever,” she says. “Women have the legal rights to obtain a medical procedure and when you punish providers, women are punished regardless.”
D
awn Porter says she was one of the many people who had no idea that TRAP laws were being enacted all over the country. For her 2016 documentary, Trapped, the filmmaker followed abortion clinics in Mississippi, Texas and Alabama for two and a half years as they fought to stay open. “The most common reaction from people after they watch the film is ‘I’m so angry’ and ‘I had no idea,’” she says. “It confirms what I suspected, which is people are not aware of how the laws are actually working in practice. It’s hard to explain why something that sounds good, like ‘The Women’s Health and Safety Protection Act,’ is troubling.” At first glance, TRAP laws might seem easy to comply with, like the law that requires abortion clinic doctors to obtain admitting privileges, which are the rights to admit patients at nearby hospitals. But hospitals can refuse these doctors, which can then lead to the closure of clinics. In Mississippi, seven local hospitals refused to provide admitting privileges to two doctors in the state’s only abortion clinic. When the law went into effect in Texas, multiple clinics closed. A similar thing happens with transfer agreements, which require abortion clinics to get an agreement that a hospital will admit emergency patients. Hospitals are already legally required to do that, but if they refuse to issue a formal agreement, clinics can be forced to shut down. Another TRAP law that might seem like a good idea is requiring abortion clinics to act as ambulatory surgical centers. Some

states tried to force clinics to make costly renovations, such as Kansas, which tried to regulate janitor closets, or Virginia, which tried to force one clinic to widen its doorways and hallways to fit a hospital stretcher. The American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists says the Texas law sets a higher standard for abortions than for other procedures, such as colonoscopies, wisdom tooth removal or tonsillectomies – all of which have statistically higher risks of complication than abortion. “The fact is that abortion is one of the safest medical procedures,” the organization says in a press release. “The risk of complications from abortion is minimal, with less than 0.5 percent of abortions involving major complications.” In the current case before the U.S. Supreme Court, Texas officials argued HB 2, the 2013 Texas bill that increased restrictions on abortion clinics and that
what herbs they can use to induce an abortion and crossing the border to get misoprostol [the medical abortion pill] at Mexican pharmacies.” It’s hard to know the exact number of women who have tried to end their pregnancies on their own as TRAP laws pass across the country, because it’s a sensitive topic, but there are other ways to know what women are doing. The New York Times analyzed Google searches and found that last year, there were more than 700,000 nationwide searches looking into self-induced abortions. That included: 160,000 searches asking how and where to buy abortion pills; 4,000 searches asking how to do coat-hanger abortions; tens of thousands of searches into self-inducing abortions through high doses of parsley or vitamin C; and a few hundred asking how to end a pregnancy by introducing bleach into the uterus or punching a pregnant woman in the stomach.
Last year, there were more than 700,000 Google searches nationwide on how to self-induce abortions. lawmakers said would improve women’s health, didn’t have much of an effect. But the Texas law did have a profound impact on women’s health, says Dan Grossman, an investigator with the Texas Policy Evaluation Project and a professor at the University of California, San Francisco. Since 2013, the number of abortion providers in Texas has dropped from 41 to 18, according to TxPEP. The remaining facilities couldn’t keep up with demand, and TxPEP found that some Texas women were waiting up to 20 days for the procedure – which, given the 20-week limit, in some cases made the procedure illegal. Before HB 2, the average one-way distance to the nearest abortion clinic was 17 miles. After HB 2, it was 70 miles. That, Grossman says, has led to anecdotal reports of women self-inducing their abortions. “I’m not hearing about invasive things like coat hangers, but women have tried a variety of things,” he says. “There are reports of women calling clinics asking
Porter says that while she was making Trapped she heard that some women had started an underground network and were training people on how to do abortions. Porter adds there was some insight into the reasoning behind these laws after Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump’s recent comment that “there has to be some form of punishment” for women who get abortions (a legal medical procedure), and then his rapid reversal when even anti-abortion activists disagreed on actual criminal penalties for women. “I am thrilled Trump said that because it points to the real, logical conclusions of the laws that they’re enhancing,” she says. “If abortion providers don’t comply with the law, there are criminal penalties. There’s no crime if the woman doesn’t seek the abortion. Women have been put in jail for trying to self-abort. … If you think that’s what the law should be, then say it. Say you want to regulate it. It’s all a very underhanded way of behaving.” orlandoweekly.com

he Republican-led Florida Legislature went even further than Texas when they passed HB 1411, says Elizabeth Nash, the senior state issues associate at the Guttmacher Institute. In addition to requiring that abortion clinics be treated more like surgical centers and have admitting privileges or transfer agreements with nearby hospitals, Florida’s version blocks Planned Parenthood clinics from receiving nearly $200,000 in Medicaid reimbursement for preventative services like cancer screenings, STD tests and contraception. (Under the federal Hyde Amendment, using Medicaid funds for abortion is already banned.) This affects all 22 Planned Parenthood clinics in the state, including the seven that don’t do abortions at all. The reasoning behind this, according to Republican state Sen. Rob Bradley, is that “the idea that those taxpayer dollars would go to an organization that performs abortions is simply intolerable,” the Tampa Bay Times reports. CBS Miami reports a spokesperson for the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services notified Scott after he signed HB 1411 that Florida has an obligation to “ensure Medicaid beneficiaries continue to have access to services provided by any willing provider.” The law also changes Florida’s definition of the first pregnancy trimester. Like other states, Florida launched an investigation into Planned Parenthood clinics in the state after highly edited, altered (and since debunked) videos about the use of fetal tissue were released by antiabortion activists. Florida’s Agency for Health Care Administration alleged three Planned Parenthood clinics in the state performed second-trimester abortions without proper licenses. After Planned Parenthood pointed out that AHCA was using a different definition than doctors do of what the first trimester is, HB 1411 created a legal definition. The law also toughens restrictions on improper disposal of fetal remains, requires the state to inspect at least half of clinic records every year, forces clinics to submit monthly reports detailing abortions and requires abortion referral or counseling agencies to register with AHCA. It’s not clear yet what impact the law will have on the clinics. But some, Nash says, will almost certainly close. “What we saw before Roe v. Wade was handed down was laws that straight-out banned abortions,” she says. “Now we’re seeing laws that make abortion difficult to access. The impact is similar in that it reduces the availability of women to obtain an abortion. But it does nothing to prevent the need for abortion. If you would be interested, you would see states

heavily investing in family planning and sex education.” Florida Sen. Kelli Stargel and Rep. Colleen Burton, both Republicans from Lakeland, sponsored the Senate and House versions of the law, respectively. Stargel says nothing in the bill is going to close down clinics. She argues that lawmakers modeled it to be “constitutional.” In Planned Parenthood v. Casey, the U.S. Supreme Court said the state can regulate abortion, but those regulations must not impose an undue burden on a woman’s constitutional right to an abortion. “Abortions will continue; the clinics will just have oversight on them to do it properly,” she says. “The nature of the regulations means inspecting them more frequently. None of these are huge leaps for them, not to the level they’re saying. What will happen is it will hold them to a higher standard, and that’s a welcome burden. They need to be held to the same standard as other clinics.” Stargel says the bill doesn’t punish anybody, but affects women in positive ways. She adds that abortion is just as invasive a procedure as liposuction, and that Florida “shouldn’t have a double standard” when it comes to clinics. Florida Rep. Lori Berman, D-Lantana, says the bill’s supporters argued there were more than enough places women could go to instead of Planned Parenthood. Stargel says Florida Family Policy Council, a group that is “pro-life, pro-family,” according to its website, provided a list claiming there are 636 federally qualified health center sites and rural health clinics in the state of Florida. When Berman asked Burton for the list, she was dismayed to find it included 67 schools with nurses; optometrists, like Arcadia Family Optometry Center; dentists, like Apopka Dental Care; the Salvation Army; and podiatrists, like Riverview Foot and Ankle Specialists – nowhere you could actually get reproductive health care. Stargel says the list is not accurate, but there are local health clinics that can accommodate people and the state has increased funding to those facilities. Orlando Weekly reached out to Florida Family Policy Council for comment, but did not receive a response by press time. Mara Gambineri, communications director for the Florida Department of Health, says the department’s current contracts with clinics are in place through the end of the fiscal year on June 30. “The department is reviewing our options,” Gambineri says. “Family planning is a core function of public health and there will be no interruption in services.” Dr. Sujatha Prabhakaran, vice president of medical affairs at the Planned

Parenthood of Southwest and Central Florida, says local clinics don’t know what the impact of HB 1411 will be, but she predicts women at or below poverty level will feel the brunt of the burden. “I do this work because I’ve worked in countries where abortion access is limited,” she says. “It doesn’t decrease the number of abortions, but it vastly increases medical complications. In many countries where abortion is illegal and access is difficult, abortion-related deaths are one of the highest reasons young women die.”
vate donations to send Mississippi women to facilities in Florida, Alabama and other states, sometimes paying for the abortion, the plane ticket and a hotel. “Just like before Roe v. Wade, women with means could always find a safe abortion,” says Joan Lamunyon Sanford, executive director of the New Mexico Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice, which helps women secure abortions in the Southwest. “It’s women living on margins, then and now, who don’t have the credit card, don’t have paid leave or extra income, that are really being hurt by this legislation.” Back in Florida, Amanda says she

L
aurie Roberts has heard it all. The president of the Mississippi Reproductive Freedom Fund gets stories from women who try to end their pregnancies with herbal remedies, vitamin C flushes or by having someone push them down the stairs. She’s heard of women who’ve accidentally overdosed on misoprostol or tried to pay someone to beat them up. Mississippi has one abortion clinic for the entire state, and its restrictive abortion laws disproportionately affect poor women of color, Roberts says. “One of the earliest messages I remember, because I was so horrified,” Roberts says, “was we got a message from a woman asking us to please help her friend because the boyfriend had told her to drink bleach to end her pregnancy and she thought her friend would.” Abortion fund organizations, like the one Roberts runs and the Central Florida Women’s Emergency Fund, exist across the county. The Mississippi fund uses pri-
thought about ending her pregnancy on her own for a second, but accidentally bleeding to death was not something she could risk with two kids depending on her. Her procedure was $375, a price that includes a discount but doesn’t take into the account the extra costs incurred because of the 24-hour waiting period. After waiting four days, Amanda and Chelsea took another day off to repeat the same process later that week. The procedure was quick, and soon she was back home in Melbourne with her children. “It doesn’t bother me,” Amanda says about the procedure. “It’s my body. I did what’s best for my family. I just wanted to ask these people who were outside the abortion clinic yelling at us to have the baby, are you going to pay to send my child to college in 18 years? Groceries? Diapers? These are the same people who complain about paying for food stamps, Medicaid, yet they’re going to force me into poverty?” mcordeiro@orlandoweekly.com

We’re still 30-ish days away from the 2016 Orlando Fringe, but the runup to the 25th annual festival is already well underway; the first preview performance was April 4 at the Venue. In its second year as a “bring your own venue,” Blue Star’s stage (confusingly dubbed Fringe’s Black Venue) is hosting a hand-picked lineup of artists unable to get into the fest through the lottery. The diverse offerings will include international Fringe circuit favorites T.J. Dawe and Martin Dockery, along with Orlando’s own Voci Dance, presenting their first ticketed Fringe show after several years of pop-up performances. Sarah-Lee Dobbs, last year’s critics’ pick for best female performer, stars in the grim kidnapping drama Nine; Central Florida Vocal Arts is offering satirical opera inspired by The Bachelor; and Grace Scully and Jack Kreeger have created a semi-improvised musical called This Too Shall Be Swept Away. And of course, the Venue will feature burlesque every midnight, ranging from lighthearted cabaret (Black Garter Dolls and Blacklist Babes, Corsets & Cuties) to hard-core erotica (Big Bang Boom), so you can always cap your night with some naughtiness.

asselberry can get lost in that netherworld between Maitland and the great out-there; snarled in traffic, its chief landmark has long been the dilapidated Orlando Jai-Alai fronton on 17-92. The Casselberry Art House, a midcentury residence the city converted to an experimental gallery some time ago, was once a lonely outpost, but the city has finally given this jewel a cultural setting: Lake Concord Park, still a work in progress. Artists used to be some of the few non-locals trekking out to the Casselberry Art House for its offbeat shows, but it isn’t such a secret anymore, now that Lake Concord Park is aiming to become Casselberry’s cultural center.
On the evening of April 16, the city will host IlluminART: Spotlight on Sculpture, a temporary installation featuring six local artists’ lightworks joining the park’s permanent sculptures. “We already have a fine permanent collection at the lake,” Casselberry recreation manager Linda Moore said as she showed us around last week. “It will be exciting to add a few more that incorporate LED lighting, projections and other effects.” Marcos Cruz, Marla E, Jeff Hoffman, Susan Menand, Amy Wieck and Bianca Braga are included in this new crop of artists expanding the Art House’s experimental nature. The new works are temporary – for “about a week,” said Moore, when asked how long viewers can see them. Some of them will play off the permanent sculptures as well, giving them a light treatment visible after the sun goes down. Marla E, whose
work appears in the Mayor’s Gallery in Orlando City Hall, will install a colorfully glowing “Eve Cube,” and Jeff Hoffman will illuminate an ice sculpture that will slowly thaw and inseminate the earth with seeds. (These were revealed to us by Art House staff; other sculptures will remain a surprise for viewers at the event.) The permanent work installed in the park by 12 different artists is also worth visiting, including a colorful 1960 mural by Cuban artist Antonio Martinez Andrés (it was rescued from a bank that the State Road 436 construction project gobbled up) and sculptures by well-established local artists Chris Scala, Jacob Harmeling and Johann Eyfells. With 17-92 thrumming safely in the distance, the city hopes this park will grow as a cultural hub. It has a lot going for it – shade, a boardwalk around a little lake and various recreational structures. (Threatening the tranquility is an adjoining $34 million mixed-use complex now under construction, complicating the parking situation.) In the art spaces of Central Florida, Casselberry is joining other cities in the mission to share art with the public. It’s high time. arts@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

Sadly, I have to share yet another fundraiser supporting a member of Orlando’s theater community with health problems. Over the past two decades, Tommy Mangieri has designed and painted countless sets for area stages, bringing both his immense artistic talents and warm, giving heart to every show I’ve had the honor to collaborate with him on. Mangieri was recently diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor and is seeking treatment at New York’s Mayo Clinic. Visit gofundme.com/eewzdbtw to contribute toward Mangieri’s considerable medical expenses, and shout it out loud with me: Cancer sucks.

It’s a Muggle madness marathon as Live Active Cultures goes to Hollywood to cover its third Wizarding World of Harry Potter premiere
PHOTO BY SETH KUBERSKY
Harry Potter may have battled
boggarts and bested a basilisk, but last week I did the Boy Who Lived one better by surviving my third Wizarding World grand opening. Following Universal Orlando’s record-breaking debuts of Hogsmeade in 2010 and Diagon Alley in 2014, Universal Studios Hollywood became the latest theme park to sport a J.K. Rowling-approved attraction on April 7, and once again I was on hand to experience the premiere. My Muggle madness marathon began last Tuesday with a star-studded red-carpet VIP party worthy of a Hollywood blockbuster. Steven Spielberg breezed past me without stopping to chat, but Talking Dead’s Chris Hardwick assured me that a magic wand would “take out Negan’s bat in a second!” As guests guzzled free-flowing booze and Butterbeer, legendary composer John Williams conducted the Los Angeles Philharmonic playing his Potter film score while stunning projection mapping magically brought Hogwarts Castle to life; even without the orchestra, Universal could easily charge guests big money for this kind of spectacle. Wednesday was taken up by media interviews with Potter film stars and Universal executives, along with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to explore the new land absent any ordinary guests. Actors Warwick Davis (Professor Flitwick), Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy), and James and Oliver Phelps (Fred and George Weasley) repeated many of the same anecdotes they’ve shared at past Orlando events, but Evanna Lynch (Luna Lovegood) demonstrated once again why she’s my favorite unguarded interview subject, bluntly opining that “there’s more progress to be made” with Universal’s vegan-unfriendly menus. I still shudder at memories of the original Hogsmeade’s opening, when ginormous queues circumnavigated CityWalk and I-4 traffic backed up for miles. But a combination of factors – an ungodly early 6:30 a.m. opening hour, blackouts for annual
Hogwarts Express at Universal Studios Hollywood
passholders, announcements that the park was sold out in advance and some authentically English rain – made Thursday’s debut unexpectedly docile. Though hundreds of hard-core fans huddled overnight outside the park, barely 6,000 guests shuffled into the Wizarding World during its opening hour, and by late afternoon waits for the rides were remarkably brief. Now that the confetti has been cleared away, how does Hollywood’s Harry Potter land compare to the original in Orlando? Sorry, Floridians, but California’s crushes ours in ways both subtle and significant. Under superficial observation, it looks like a clone, but adjustments and enhancements are found throughout, starting with the shifting of shops to create a bit of much-needed breathing room. Gladrags Wizardwear is now an actual clothing store, instead of a false facade, and Wiseacres Wizarding Equipment has been imported from Diagon Alley. Ollivanders Wand Shop has relocated across the street and doubled in size, making it that much easier to buy your $48 wand for triggering the new and improved interactive windows hidden among the storefronts. Orlando’s Dragon Challenge roller coaster is entirely absent. An extra-cost Hogwarts Express photo-op is where the ride’s lockers would be, and a dead-end door – leading directly to the rumored future home of Hollywood’s Diagon Alley – sits where Florida’s attraction entrance is. The Flight of the Hippogriff kiddie coaster is a new Mack-made model rather than an aging Vekoma, providing a smoother, snappier ride. Even the Three Broomsticks restaurant was modestly improved with some dishes from Orlando’s Leaky Cauldron, though the ambrosial hot Butterbeer isn’t yet on their menu. Aesthetically, the biggest difference between the two Hogsmeades is in their approach to immersiveness. Orlando’s land is famously isolated from the rest of the park, preserving the visual illusion of entering another world. Due to its constrained geography in a dense urban environment, Hollywood’s version doesn’t have the same
luxury, and it’s admittedly odd to see office buildings and the lights of Los Angeles intruding on some sightlines. But supervising art director Alan Gilmore outdid himself compensating for the compromised views, extending rockwork on buildings that were left exposed in Orlando and slightly reorienting Hogwarts Castle so that the distant mountains substitute as the Scottish Highlands, creating unparalleled vistas from the peak of Hippogriff’s lift hill. Gilmore told me he even adapted his palette to the “high-definition” California sunlight, which doesn’t dull colors over distance the way Florida’s does, and added additional layers of dirt, grime and texture in every corner. Ironically, the only altered element of Hollywood’s attraction that I didn’t feel was an unambiguous improvement is the one that’s been most intensively advertised. The signature Forbidden Journey dark ride received a host of upgrades, from streamlined locker access and an Express queue option to more dynamic lighting and audio effects and expanded sets in the already-impressive Forbidden Forest and Chamber of Secrets scenes. Best of all, the skeletal Dementors are more numerous and detailed than before, reinstating several animatronics supposedly deemed too scary for Orlando’s audience. But unfortunately, the hyped conversion of the ride’s filmed sequences to 3-D is a mixed bag at best. The glasses, styled after Quidditch safety goggles, allow distracting light to leak in around their periphery, and though some objects (like the Golden Snitch) seem to come convincingly close to riders, the projections appeared oversaturated and unfocused, possibly making it more puke-inducing than Orlando’s original, despite less aggressive motion from the “floating bench” ride vehicles. Thankfully, Universal Creative president Mark Woodbury said they have no immediate plans to bring the 3-D to Florida. For now, Potter devotees will have to apparate westward to decide for themselves which Wizarding World is the best. skubersky@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

[ restaurant review ]
BY FAIYAZ KARA
Bavaro’s Pizza Napoletana has secured the services of Giulio Abussi, a Neapolitan pizzaiolo who could be the best in the city. The pizza and pasta house is set to open an outpost in St. Pete next month and one in Lake Nona later this year. OPENING DoveCote, the highly anticipated brasserie from Clayton Miller (Food & Wine’s Best New Chef 2010), James & Julie Petrakis (Ravenous Pig) and Gene Zimmerman (Courtesy Bar) will open in mid- to late-June, not this spring as initially thought … Black Rock Bar & Grill, a Michigan-based outfit specializing in certified Angus beef steaks served on a sizzling black stone, will open later this spring on Conroy-Windermere Road. CLOSING Sankalp, the Indian restaurant on West Sand Lake Road near the Florida Mall, has closed.
Black Rooster Taqueria
Fully cocked Black Rooster Taqueria flies in the face of taco convention BY FAIYAZ KARA BLACK ROOSTER TAQUERIA 1323 N. Mills Ave. | 407-601-0994 | blackroostertaqueria.com | $$

lack Rooster Taqueria, the first of many highly anticipated restaurants slated to open in 2016, was the unquestionable “it spot” among the city’s scenesters and eaters these past couple of months. Tables (handcrafted by chefowner John Calloway, it should be noted) were hard to come by, as seemingly all of Mills 50 was licking their chops at the prospect of gorging on BRT’s “farm to taco” cuisine, and justifiably so. Having worked with renowned chef-restaurateur Richard Sandoval for 10 years in various capacities from chef de cuisine to executive chef, Calloway is more than familiar with the authentic flavors of Mexican cuisine. He’s traveled the world opening modMex restos like Maya, La Sandia and Tamayo, but, lucky for us, he and his wife, Juliana, chose Orlando to put down roots. (Juliana grew up here.) Given their skill set and what they regard as an exciting
and pivotal juncture in the city’s culinary timeline, opening a rootsy neighborhood taqueria seemed like a no-brainer. But this isn’t your average taqueria, esé. Black Rooster’s tacos are as fat as they are carefully and authentically constructed – bracing epazote in the vegetarian ($4) taco; pickled chile poblano and Oaxaca cheese in the beef-and-bacon asada ($4.50); and earthy achiote in a pork shoulder slowroasted in a banana leaf ($3.75). PR’s and Tijuana Flats this is not, even if the pork taco did require a dab of house-made habañero hot sauce to round it off. I would like to have seen more than just one sope on the menu, but the meatball ($3) version of the popular antojito might be all they need. The meaty orb of beef and pork was poca madre, and the thick corn masa cake was resilient enough to hold toppings of pinto beans, cabbage, black mole, roasted peanuts and cilantro. If sides are desired, the subtly bitter cilantro-poblano rice ($3) may not suit all tastes, but herbaceous Colombian pinto beans ($4) cooked with pork shoulder likely will.
I didn’t expect to see a kale salad ($8.50) on the menu, but it was one of the more texturally brilliant I’ve sampled anywhere, thanks to healthy additions of red radish, green cabbage, grapes, spicy pecans and queso fresco. One of my favorite items, however, is the meaty stew of beef achiote ($10.50). The hunk of beef shoulder just falls apart, and even better, the broth is essenced with Peruvian aji panca and orange. Sweet plantains couldn’t have made a more perfect complement. A pumpkinseed dip with tomatillo, blood orange and serrano peppers ($5) rivals the guacamole ($6) for dip supremacy here, though I much prefer the latter. Two desserts – the tres leches ($3.50) and the chocolate-chipotle flan ($3.50) – both leave the sort of lasting impressions desserts should leave. The name, in case you’re wondering, isn’t an homage to the dark arts – rather, it stems from a childhood memory. Calloway’s boyhood days spent on his grandfather’s farm in Hudson Valley would inevitably commence with a crowing black rooster that held no regard for a young boy’s desire to sleep in. But what started out as an object of scorn and derision soon became a fond remembrance, so much so that to Calloway, the black rooster now signifies great times and great food. I’m sure patrons would agree.

If you love the concept of Hanson’s Shoe Repair but prefer to have a little elbow room, rejoice: Herman’s Loan Office is exactly what you’ve been craving. The well-appointed space – practically a palace compared to the tight confines of Hanson’s – features the kind of furniture you’d expect to find in a bank: dark wooden coffee tables, nicely upholstered couches and chairs … and a white marble bar to tie the room together. Chief creative bartender Rene Nguyen and his team sculpt a variety of forward-thinking cocktails. Try our favorite, the Dance at Bougival, a dark concoction of gin, prosecco, balsamic vinegar and Cynar served in a champagne flute. Or, if you don’t quite know what you want, the bartenders can craft something for you if you give them your preferences from three categories: Light or Dark, Refreshing or Spiritous, Comforting or Adventurous. Make it a point to check out their Friday happy hour, which features $6 bartender’s choice cocktails – no password required.

Del Frisco’s Double Eagle Steak House The high-end chophouse scene got a little beefier when Del Frisco’s returned to the city with its colossal, two-story Double Eagle steakhouse. Wet-aged USDA Prime steaks are the specialty, and you’ll feel your wallet crimp with every pricey bite, be it the 22-ounce bone-in ribeye or the wagyu tomahawk chop. Fanny Bay and Dabob oysters make delightful starters, while light and fluffy banana bread pudding makes the ideal capper. Wine lovers will rejoice in the 1,300 labels offered. Open daily; dinner only. 9150 International Drive, 407-351-5074; $$$$
Metro Diner Comfort food chain replicates an old-timey diner with its checkerboard floor, counter seating and Depression-era feel. Breakfast (served all day) is the main draw, with griddled items like the nutty waffle and croissant French toast being highlights. Hamburger steak and eggs suffered from an unfortunate dryness; the mandible-testing Pittsburgh sandwich with pastrami and fried egg fared much better. Open daily. 985 N. State Road 434, Altamonte Springs, 407-917-8997; $$
Morimoto Asia Throngs clamor inside this palatial Disney Springs resto for a sighting of the celebrity chef, but ultimately settle for pricey, albeit well-executed, pan-Asian eats. Rock shrimp tempura, braised black cod, duck ramen and arresting Peking duck wow, and spicy yellowtail rolls and ethereal otoro are wonderful. Pairing meals with potent potables is easy here: plenty of sakes, beers and wine from which to choose. Reservations are recommended, though the second-floor Forbidden Lounge is a draw for the walk-up diner. Disney Springs, 1600 E. Buena Vista Blvd., Lake Buena Vista, 407-939-6686; $$$$
Market on South Vegan fare: It’s not just for vegans anymore, as this gathering ground for herbivores and omnivores alike demonstrates.

Urbain 40 French Colonial brasserie with a swing-era vibe is a stunner, and the high price you’ll pay is well worth the wallet crimp. Chef Jean-Stephane Poinard’s mushroomy crêpe urbain is reflective of native Lyonnaise cuisine, but stellar bouillabaise and duck three ways showcase his regional chops. Pastry chef Amanda McFall does no wrong, be it macarons, truffles, tortes or potent baba au rhum. 8000 Via Dellagio Way, 407-872-2640; $$$$

While the Siamese cuisine is reduced to sandwiches and salads, don’t underestimate their flavorsome bites. The chicken gra-prow will be on your regular sandwich rotation, as will the marinated beef sammie with tangy and peppery “jaaw sauce.” Brick toast, like the “ka-ti” with condensed milk, coconut ice cream, honey and crushed peanuts, is a must, as are the plethora of teas, offered hot or cold. Open daily. 1050 W. Fairbanks Ave., Winter Park, 407-733-3561; $
Tabla Cuisine After an extensive renovation, a new menu and some new personnel in the kitchen, this revamped Indian restaurant hasn’t missed a beat. It’s added a few, in fact, in the form of Chinese and Thai dishes. Skip tamarindsweetened pad Thai, and opt instead for stellar gobi Manchurian and lemon-coriander soup. Kebabs, be they lamb, chicken or otherwise, are some of the best in town. Desserts can be hit or miss. Closed Mondays. 5827 Caravan Court, 407-248-9400; $$
Baoery Asian Gastropub Greg Richie’s pan-Asian “gastropub” might bring a sake-bomb atmo to Thornton Park, but the focus is on the sweet-and-spongy steamed buns. Pork belly and Korean fried chicken versions make for proper starters, though more bao need to be offered. A stellar bulgogi burger shows up other featured dishes like ramen and bibimbap. Requisite sake and cocktails slake the party crowd; some intriguing wines and beers are offered as well. Open daily. 617 E. Central Blvd., 407-849-9779; $$
Tapa Toro Tapa Toro has the looks and the dishes to match, no bull. Expertly crafted Spanish fare makes it well worth the drive to sample puckery gazpacho, perfect pulpo a la plancha, or pan rustico with a spread of Medjool dates and goat cheese. Plush skewers of beef tenderloin please and, apart from the lack of crusty socarrat, the paella with chicken, chorizo and lamb chops was utterly brilliant. More Spanish beers and sherries, please.

ollywood is in the grips of a terrible fever that might most kindly be called “a fear of the new” or, less generously, “creative bankruptcy.” The disease has been manifesting itself in the spate of remakes and reboots of older films – sometimes of films that aren’t even that old. (Spider-Man, for instance, is about to get his third big-screen reboot in only 15 years.) Disney is suffering from a particularly virulent form of the syndrome: The studio is planning live-action remakes of all its classic animated films; we’ve already seen one in last year’s Cinderella, which was a wild commercial success but was almost entirely superfluous in a storytelling sense, or even merely as a moviegoing experience. But sometimes there is a good reason to remake an old film, and Disney found it with its new version of The Jungle Book. A little darker than the 1967 cartoon, and not quite a musical – though it does include the two best songs from the previous film, “The Bare Necessities” and “I Wanna Be Like You” – this is a filmmaking achieve-

ment that goes right up to the bleeding edge of what 21st-century cinema technology can do. This new Jungle Book tells a story that is strapping yet simple (certainly compared to the overstuffed blockbusters we are typically bombarded with) and hugely appealing. It’s a sheer delight for kids and adults alike, that rare family film that is actually suitable for the whole family, grown-ups too. Here’s the thing, though: Despite its darker mood and tone, this Jungle Book is, like the original, mostly animated. Young Mowgli, the orphaned “man cub” raised by wolves in the Indian jungle, is played by a human being, young newcomer Neel Sethi, who is not only completely adorable but also exudes intelligence and packs a wallop of fierce determination. But he is the only live-action element. The jungle and all of the animals are computer-generated, though you’d be hard-pressed to guess that. The lushness of Mowgli’s world is palpable, and the 3-D has beautiful depth that makes you feel as if you could walk right in. And the animals look utterly, touchably and in some cases – cute wolf cubs! – pettably real. (The marvelous voice cast includes Bill Murray, Ben Kingsley, Idris Elba, Lupita Nyong’o, Scarlett Johansson, Giancarlo
Esposito, Christopher Walken and Garry Shandling.) Screenwriter Justin Marks retains the core of Rudyard Kipling’s fiction – as well as that of the 1967 film – in the tale of Mowgli and his pals Bagheera the panther (voiced by Kingsley) and Baloo the bear (Murray), and Mowgli’s targeting by the man-eating tiger Shere Khan (Elba). But it expands here into a fable about not denying who you are – Mowgli will never be a wolf no matter how hard he tries – while also being loyal to your friends no matter who they are; Mowgli’s lack of wolfness does not restrict him from considering them his family anyway. And as Mowgli finds new ways to deploy his ”tricks” – as the other animals call his clever, and inevitably manlike, use of tools, such as turning a big shell into a bowl for drinking water – another fable creeps in: one about humanity’s responsibility to be thoughtful stewards of the natural world (which comes with the reminder that we are a part of it), because we have the potential to do such damage to it if we are careless. But this is an action fantasy first! And director Jon Favreau stages some extraordinarily thrilling sequences; the landslide that sends a herd of water buffalo into a frenzy of stampeding fear is heartstopping, not least because Mowgli is right in the middle of it. In a way that few other movies have achieved – Avatar might be the only one – we are right in the middle of it, too, in every way we can be. This new Mowgli and his animal friends are true charmers. You won’t be able to get “Bare Necessities” out of your head for days afterward, and you won’t even mind. film@orlandoweekly.com

Barbershop: The Next Cut
Criminal BY ST EVE SCHNEID ER
OPENING IN ORLANDO Barbershop: The Next Cut Both of the previous Barbershop movies were lots of fun, but the second one was that rare sequel that’s superior to its predecessor in every way. It was an entertaining, insightful meditation on the true problems facing our so-called inner cities, and an examination of the pressures that modern-day mom-and-pop businesses confront in a world that pays them mostly in lip service. Part of the reason for the uptick in quality between installments 1 and 2 was the replacement of director Tim Story (he who fucked up the Fantastic Four before fucking up the Fantastic Four was cool). But this third chapter doesn’t retain anybody from the writing and directing team that made 2 such a success – not even writer Don D. Scott, who was involved in every outing up to now. Taking the reins as director is Malcolm D. Lee, whose reputation is mostly for sweeping up the remains of franchises like The Best Man and Scary Movie. Worse, there are troubling signs that the custodians of the Barbershop legacy don’t even remember their own history, given that the PR team is talking up the
supposedly novel development that the titular establishment has now gone co-ed. Sure, new recruit Nicki Minaj really brings the boom-boom, but what was Eve supposed to be all this time – a drag queen with a juice addiction? (PG-13)
Criminal Ever notice how many suspense movies are based on the idea of somebody’s brain getting stuck in the least appropriate body imaginable? Take Criminal, in which the memories and abilities of a government agent have to be transplanted into a violent outlaw. Now, I ask you, who would consider that a good plan? Seriously, it would be like grafting a puppy onto a monkey onto a baby or something. That comparison wouldn’t have been possible when Criminal was originally scheduled for release at the ass end of last summer, but its postponement to spring 2016 may reap major dividends: It’s now the first action picture with name stars to open since Batman vs. Superman flamed out early. Starring roles for Ryan “Deadpool” Reynolds and Gal “Wonder Woman” Gadot only deepen the irony. (R) orlandoweekly.com

frika Bambaata is widely regarded as the Godfather of hip-hop, and many consider Kool Herc to be the original King, but there’s one undisputed superlative: KRS-One is the Scholar. Born Lawrence Parker in the Bronx in 1965, KRSOne (which stands for “Knowledge Reigns Supreme Over Nearly Everyone”) committed himself and his first group, Boogie Down Productions, to an outspoken form of political activism and advocacy from the very start. This mirrors Parker’s commitment to the craft: He left home at age 16 to pursue his hip-hop dreams at a time when no one was making a full-time living at it. He ended up in a South Bronx homeless shelter, where he met youth counselor Scott Sterling, who decided to back him in Boogie Down Productions as DJ Scott La Rock. The duo’s first album, 1987’s Criminal Minded, set the template for hard-core hip-hop, with Scott sampling everyone from James Brown to Billy Joel to Jamaican dancehall music, and KRS publicly battling hip-hop dignitaries Marley Marl and MC Shan over hip-hop’s true birthplace (Marl claimed Queens, KRS

claimed the Bronx). Even more seminally, Scott and KRS appeared on the cover brandishing firearms and ammunition, a first in the popular music world. But their posturing was meant to skewer the violence and drugs plaguing AfricanAmerican communities, and to satirize white America’s fetishization of it. In 1988, Scott La Rock was gunned down in a random street shoot-out, followed months later by the death of a fan at a KRS-One and Public Enemy concert. That jeopardized Boogie Down Productions’ future and torpedoed a record deal with Warner Brothers, but KRS persevered, starting the nonprofit group Stop the Violence and pivoting toward conscious, epistemological hip-hop on crucial BDP albums Ghetto Music: The Blueprint of Hip-Hop and Edutainment. In the ’90s, KRS-One went solo, expanding his profile exponentially: a guest spot with alterna-rock heroes R.E.M., a fawning tribute from Sublime and a remix with Puff Daddy. But mainstream attention didn’t fit KRS well, and today his early solo period is more well-known for the “WOOP WOOP” refrain of racial profiling anthem “Sound of da Police,” the criminal justice reform crusade “Free Mumia” and a lengthy anticorporate feud with the BBC. Since then, KRS has focused on promoting hip-hop at every opportunity. He founded the Temple of Hip-Hop Ministry, Archive, School and Society to perpetuate Afrika Bambaata’s overarching idea that the art form was a deliberate attempt to effect positive change on the world. He worked as an A&R executive at Warner Brothers and Reprise to try and recruit young conscious rappers into the major-label fold. He wrote a 600-page religious treatise called The Gospel of Hip-Hop. And today, he spends just as much time lecturing at colleges and dissecting police brutality on cable news as he does performing. “I introduced the concept of being hip-hop, not just doing it,” he told the AV Club way back in 2001. “The concept of rap as something we do, while hip-hop is something we live … that’s the single most important contribution that I can offer. I make intelligence cool. I make spirituality cool. If we can make one’s devotion to God cool, then I think I did a great thing. I can rest in peace.”

T
here’s one claim you can’t level at the Cult: rock & roll retread. These psychedelic post-punkers formed in Yorkshire in 1981 around the core duo of Ian Astbury and Billy Duffy. But they broke big in the U.S. a few years later, bridging the gap between metal and grunge with dark rock hits “Love Removal Machine,” “Fire Woman” and “Sweet Soul Sister.” It was the Cult who introduced the world to a thenunknown Guns N’ Roses on a 1987 world tour. And it was the Cult who organized the first cross-genre festival, Gathering of the Tribes, in 1990. By the mid-’90s, drugs and disillusion broke up the Cult; even after they reformed in 1999, an ill-fated deal with Atlantic Records set them back even further. In 2002, the Cult went on ice again, with Astbury filling Jim Morrison’s role in a 21st-century reboot of the Doors. But once the Cult reunited for good in 2005, the band caught a third wind, transforming themselves into titans of the new international festival circuit. Their 2014 Coachella performance is widely considered one of the best rock performances in recent memory, and a trifecta of gripping original albums, 2007’s Born Into This, 2012’s Choice of Weapon and 2015’s Hidden
City, thrust them to the forefront of any conversation about modern rock. Orlando Weekly chatted with founding guitarist Billy Duffy about rock & roll passion, artistry over commercialism and combating the inevitability of extremism.
Songs like “Deeply Ordered Chaos” comment on contemporary events, like last year’s Paris terrorist attacks. That’s rare for an established band.
For Ian, Paris means a lot – it symbolizes everything that’s great about art. It’s the City of Light. … We wear our hearts on The Cult still tours relentlessly. Has that our sleeves and believe in what we do. We pace ever gotten to you or Ian or any of live it and breathe it. That song was written in response to the Charlie Hebdo attacks the other guys? Billy Duffy: We’ve been around a while (January 2015); the album was recorded by – most of us are in our 60s – and the wear the time of the Eagles of Death Metal thing and tear, the physicality of touring, is a fac- (November 2015). But that just reinforced tor. We’re still doing about five gigs a week, the sentiment that it could have been us – which is sustainable. But touring is where we’ve played the Bataclan before. It looks you make your money – it’s not considered like the lunatics are going to be running the a holiday any more. And we are a touring asylum soon, and the inevitability of that band that makes records when we have extremism is sad. The sane people now are the silent majority again, and that’s a enough good songs to share with people. problem. Last year’s Hidden City was the band’s 10th full-length in 32 years. What stands out to you about it?
We got the best out of the diverse material. Working with producer Bob Rock from the ground up helped guide our creativity in a structured way, and the beneficiary was the songs. There’s definitely a thirst from young people for rock music that doesn’t suck, made by people who are still alive and playing, not just old and fat and nostalgic. So it’s a matter of re-engaging our fans who went to concerts all the time when they were 30 but are maybe 45 now and don’t do anything. That’s what Hidden City can do: reignite their passion for rock & roll.
Last year, Rolling Stone called the Cult “fearless and peerless.” Does that seem accurate or overblown to you?
I’ll take it. There are bands we respect, but I’m proud of what we’ve done, and we do it without fear. We pursue artistic choices, not commercial choices, as our primary concern. The rock & roll field is a fairly thin herd. That’s why we’re always looking to partner up with other interesting bands. Like Public Enemy – that was a great experiment that went really well. It worked. It wasn’t just tokenism. Here’s to more of that if it can be done.
Hot-shit EDM producer Datsik – he of the recent “Smoke Bomb” collaboration with Snoop Dogg – is in the midst of a nationwide tour with fellow young turks Ookay and Drezo. 9 p.m. Friday, April 15, at Venue 578, $20-$30

Melvins BY B AO L E - H U U
Some weeks, a theme miracu-
lously emerges. This week, it’s the reward of being original, even weird.
PHOTO BY JEN CRAY
THE BEAT
Seattle alt-rapper Sadistik (April 6, Backbooth) is one of the modern renegades demolishing rap conventions while keeping it real even by rigid old-school metrics. The guy may sport gear like a Cannibal Holocaust shirt and look more like a heavy-metal frontman than an MC, but homie strafes his rhymes in tight, technical cadences. It’s no wonder he’s on Fake Four, the label founded by brothers Ceschi and David Ramos, two genrestretching rap iconoclasts who’ve set up permanent shop out on the game’s artiest frontiers. Alongside a stable deep in underground cred including luminaries like Sole, Busdriver and Florida originals Bleubird and Astronautalis, it’s one of the very few natural fits out there for a mold-breaker like Sadistik. His sound is left-field dope with a very intimate kind of lyricism and expression, the kind that brings you into the soul of the man rather than force-feeding you what he loudly puts out. It’s emotional candor that’s more provocative and penetrating than what we’ve been programmed to expect from hip-hop. Despite good recordings, nothing quite bottles the full intensity and authenticity of Sadistik’s live performance. Set against music and dim lighting thick with mood, he opened a vein with a flow that’s remarkably liquid despite its density. The affliction, sweat and catharsis he exudes
This tour funneled legendary marrow from the undergrounds of England, America and Japan to form a berserk multinational army of heaviness. live activate his words and feeling like no studio can. Like the best indie rappers, Sadistik channels rap’s vigor to mine greater pathos. The result is a fresh kind of swagger that doesn’t resort to basic schoolyard braggadocio. Throughout, he kept it personal, thanking the audience for turning out with striking humility and saying repeatedly, “I owe you guys.” But maybe he’s got a point, because this congregation was a more pumped and tuned-in crowd than seen at most shows. Any real artist would trade size for this kind of depth and true belief in an audience, and Sadistik is one who captures hearts and minds in a way that results in a particular kinship between artist and fan. The inevitable manifestation of this bond is the kind of finale that has him down on the floor, in the heart of the fire, and making it go straight inferno. The Savage Imperial Death March Tour (April 8, Plaza Live) funneled legendary marrow from the undergrounds of England, America and Japan to form a berserk multinational army of heaviness. Napalm Death was blistering and relentless. Though both the Melvins and
Melt-Banana were good as usual, the cavernous room didn’t do either many favors in terms of effect. Melt-Banana, despite being stripped down to a core duo, still managed through sheer intensity and freakiness. But the whole setup was a reminder of how truly and deeply I miss the raging Big Business effect in the Melvins. Much more than any single performance, however, the thing that’s most impressive here is the weird boldness that this bill represents in its totality. Individually, each band is notable, with names usually featured in the headlining spot. Furthermore, even though they’re all by now legacy acts, they’ve each consistently maintained status as trailblazers to this day. That’s a testament to the eternity of originality – and in the case of the openers, a healthy shot of craziness. But together, they’re a fantastically diverse and sonically insane all-star bill – a three-headed Hydra. It’s a rare confluence that gave the show a heightened sense of event and history. To one who goes to a professional amount of concerts and has seen a whole lot a million times over, it doesn’t get any more delicious than lineups with this degree of both caliber and intrigue. For all its joint force, the conspiracy also says something about each of these bands. That they chose to align themselves like this, beyond their respective tribal lines, certifies the fierce independent spirit in them all. Sure, this positioning makes each stand out in style. But, maybe just as critically, it sets them apart in philosophy from even their own contemporaries. baolehuu@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

OUR PICKS FOR THE BEST EVENTS THIS WEEK
Thursday, 14
Amber Tamblyn LITERARY
Although you might recognize Emmynominated actress Amber Tamblyn from her work on television shows like House or Joan of Arcadia, this Hollywood hotshot doesn’t just perform other people’s words; she writes her own. Tamblyn has had three acclaimed collections of poetry published since 2005. Join her as she reads from her latest work, a haunting and provocative collection called Dark Sparkler, which explores the lives of more than 25 actresses lost before their time, from Marilyn Monroe to Brittany Murphy. It’s a topic that Tamblyn is deeply familiar with as an actress, and in the book, she expertly paints an empathic picture of the often sordid and tragic lives of these celebrities. It’s an opportunity you won’t want to miss because, after all, who better is there to tell you about the side of this industry hidden underneath the glitz and glamour of stardom than a star herself? – Deanna Ferrante
David Cross COMEDY
But if Amber Tamblyn’s poetry doesn’t speak to you, maybe the stand-up comedy of her husband, David Cross, is more your speed. The 52-year-old comedian, actor and writer is more than just a trophy husband; he was involved in several critically successful television shows in the late ’90s and early 2000s, like Arrested Development and Mr. Show, both of which have been given encore seasons on Netflix. This is Cross’ first tour since the two married in 2012, but don’t expect hacky marriage material. As a writer on par with his wife, Cross’ comedy delves into biting cultural criticism, often taking jabs at consumerism, politics and sexism, as evidenced by the name of this comeback tour: “Making America Great Again.” – Thaddeus McCollum 8 p.m. | Hard Rock Live, 6050 Universal Blvd. | 407-351-5483 | hardrock.com | $28 Friday, 15
Formento+Formento: Cinematic Chronicles ART
Husband-and-wife creative powerhouses BJ and Richielle Formento aren’t your average couple. For more than a decade, the duo have traveled all over with their Siamese cat family in their 1969 Airstream, shooting photographs that have been described as a cross between David Lynch and Edward Hopper. They’ve shown at Art Basel Miami Beach and the Robert Klein Gallery, but their latest collection, Cinematic Chronicles, brings Snap! Orlando guests a creepy, albeit

EVENTS
This Space Station show marks the last date of a brief but ambitious Illuminated Paths Showcase tour up and down the East Coast, both starting and ending in Florida. The tour is in conjunction with Broken Machine Films, the visual sibling to IP, a purveyor of strange and stunning projections and films built up from forgotten equipment. On this night a number of the more singular acts on the IP roster strut their stuff: Maximino, Ray Brazen and Ryan Harris. This showcase also features a rare visit to Orlando from Miami’s Omebi. All of these artists, both sonic and visual, specialize in repurposing, reconceptualizing and finding the hidden beauty in so much disposable pop culture detritus. The evening promises to be ethereal and brain-scrambling in equal doses and a very fine use of your Friday-evening free time. – Matthew Moyer
Seven years ago, when Tom Vann and Daniel Dennis of WTKS 104.1’s “Monsters in the Morning” decided to try their hand at the podcast game, they couldn’t have predicted the massive show of support they wound up receiving from fans. “A Mediocre Time With Tom and Dan” quickly rose to become the No. 1 local podcast in Central Florida, and the duo even got hired by WTKS to create “A Corporate Time With Tom and Dan,” an FCC-compatible version of their show. And any fan of Tom and Dan can tell you: They love to give away stuff. From their Tumbleweed Comedy Tour that brings free standup to area bars and restaurants to their Bad at Business beer festival that gives away free beer, Tom and Dan like to hook their fans up. So it’s no surprise that for this seventh anniversary party, Tom and Dan are offering up a wide variety of free entertainment. Magician Kostya Kimlat joins Chinese acrobat Liang and juggler Charles Peachock to provide the kind of vaudevillian variety show that the Beacham was known for in the 1920s, and resident one-man band king Ben Prestage stomps his way through a swampy set of country-tinged blues. Now if we can just get their fans to stop flooding our Best of Orlando readers’ poll with votes for Tom and Dan for “Best Meat.” – TM

Record Store Day EVENTS
Record Store Day is upon us again, and while, yes, we are sympathetic to the critiques of the event (shutting smaller labels out of pressing plants for a good portion of the year, eBay scum flipping exclusives immediately), it’s still pretty fun. Especially with Park Ave CDs leading the charge with a slate of creative events planned. There’s an RSD Fair and Outdoor Market going down in front of the building that hosts a block of Florida-based record labels and distributors; the Uncomfortable Brunch people are on hand to screen music-related movies in the parking lot the night before to entertain those hard-core camp-out line inhabitants; comedians Alex Luchun and Larry Fulford MC the event with comedy, contests and giveaways outside all day to help pass the waiting time. Plus, you’ve got other options: Retro Records, East-West Music and Rock & Roll Heaven are all participating in this year’s madness. Why not visit ’em all? – MM

Florida Cheese Festival
IN-BETWEEN SERIES ART BY JOHN ALCORN
EVENTS
No one knows who invented cheese; some archaeologists presume that it was a happy accident resulting from using animal stomachs to store milk. But whoever that lucky shepherd was, we owe them a debt of gratitude. Without cheese, life just wouldn’t be the same: no pizza, no mac & cheese, no mozzarella sticks, no grilled cheese sandwiches – basically no joy whatsoever. This weekend, cheese lovers are invited to downtown DeLand for the inaugural Florida Cheese Festival, which presents a slew of varieties from more than 12 countries. But here’s the best part: It’s all you can fucking eat. Someone has seriously underestimated Central Florida’s appetite for the King of All Dairy Products. You can pair your cheesy feast with beer and wine from Stella Artois’ mobile Airstream bar, or take in a documentary about pimento cheese while eating pimento cheese in the Artisan Alley Garage. And if for some reason you’re still hungry after gorging on gorgonzola, brie, gruyére and cheddar, there are plenty of restaurants to try in DeLand’s charming downtown district. Apologies to the lactoseintolerant, but you’re definitely missing out on this one. – TM 11 a.m.-6 p.m. | downtown DeLand, Indiana Avenue and South Woodland Boulevard | floridacheesefesti al.com $1 -$15

The In-Between Series: The Captured Bird MUSIC
There’s a certain fierce glee in digging up a gem at a yard sale; it feels like winning. But most of us stop there, clutching our prize in our hot little hands, whether it’s a vintage tube amp or a genuine Pucci minidress or a treasured book half-remembered from childhood. For violinist Sarah Morrison (Obliterati), receiving a 1966 copy of The Fireside Book of Children’s Songs, a volume of simple folk songs from around the world, was not just a welcome gift but the catalyst for an enchanting musical program. For the latest installment of Avalon’s In-Between Series, Morrison and friends (Matt Davis, cello and theremin; Anna Wallace and Alisha Erao, vocals) present “new and original melodies and compositions woven from glimmering threads of looped violin, viola, cello, voice, theremin and percussion … all under projections of the original, magnetic artwork of the book.” The program is named for Russian folk song “The Captured Bird,” just one of the songs the ensemble plans to perform. Between the weird skills/ skilled weirdness of the players and the trippy beauty of the original ’60s illustrations, this should be an evening of powerful emotion. – Jessica Bryce Young 7 p.m. | Gallery at Avalon Island, 39 S.

Steve Hackett MUSIC
The general consensus among those who harbor opinions about Genesis is that the band lost its way when Peter Gabriel left the band and Phil Collins stepped up to the mic to replace him. But that discounts two good-to-great Genesis albums released after Gabriel left (A Trick of the Tail and Wind & Wuthering); those two albums were the last to feature guitarist Steve Hackett, and it’s fair to say that it wasn’t until Hackett left that Genesis truly abandoned their progressive-rock roots for the shiny (and lucrative) pastures of crossover pop-rock. In the 40 years since Hackett left Genesis, he’s occasionally entertained the idea of a reunion, and has even gone back and re-recorded some of the material he originally did with the band, but his career has been resolutely rooted in continuing to expand on the compositional and instrumental ideas he pioneered in the early ’70s with Genesis. (Yes, he was the first guitarist to do fingertapping on a rock record.) He is an unapologetically dyed-in-the-wool prog-rocker, and while his contemporary work veers into the more hard-edged end of the spectrum, the core of what made him such an essential part of Genesis’ most impressive work is still a vital element of his approach now. – Jason Ferguson 7 p.m. | The Plaza Live, 425 N.

Will you keep it in the forefront of your mind, and be vigilant for juicy clues that might show up in the experiences headed your way? In suggesting that you do, I’m not guaranteeing that you will gather numerous extravagant insights about your true identity and thereby achieve a blissful eruption of total liberation. But I suspect that at the very least you will understand previously hidden mysteries about your primal nature. And as they come into focus, you will indeed be led in the direction of cathartic emancipation. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) “We never know the wine we are becoming while we are being crushed like grapes,” said author Henri Nouwen. I don’t think that’s true in your case. Any minute now, you could get a clear intuition about what wine you will ultimately turn into once the grape-crushing stage ends. So my advice is to expect that clear intuition. Once you’re in possession of it, I bet the crushing will begin to feel more like a massage – maybe even a series of strong but tender caresses. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Your sustaining mantra for the coming weeks comes from Swedish poet Tomas Tranströmer: “I am not empty; I am open.” Say that aloud whenever you’re inclined to feel lonely or lost. “I am not empty; I am open.” Whisper it to yourself as you wonder about the things that used to be important but no longer are. “I am not empty; I am open.” Allow it to loop through your imagination like a catchy song lyric whenever you’re tempted to feel melancholy about vanished certainties or unavailable stabilizers or missing fillers. “I am not empty; I am open.” CANCER (June 21-July 22) According to my analysis of the omens, you are close to tapping into hidden powers, dormant talents and future knowledge. Truths that have been off-limits are on the verge of catching your attention and revealing themselves. Secrets you have been concealing from yourself are ready to be plucked and transformed. And now I will tell you a trick you can use that will enable you to fully cash in on these pregnant possibilities: Don’t adopt a passive wait-and-see attitude. Don’t expect everything to happen on its own. Instead, be a willful magician who aggressively collects and activates the potential gifts. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) This would be a perfect moment to give yourself a new nickname like “Sugar Pepper” or “Honey Chili” or “Itchy Sweet.” It’s also a favorable time to explore the joys of running in slow motion or getting a tattoo of a fierce howling bunny or having gentle sex standing up. This phase of your cycle is most likely to unfold with maximum effectiveness if you play along with its complicated, sometimes paradoxical twists and turns. The more willing you are to celebrate life’s riddles as blessings in disguise, the more likely you’ll be to use the riddles to your advantage. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Right about now you might be feeling a bit extreme, maybe even zealous or melodramatic. I wouldn’t be surprised if you were tempted to make outlandish expostulations similar to those that the poet Arthur Rimbaud articulated in one of his histrionic poems: “What beast must I worship? What sacred images should I destroy? What hearts shall I break? What lies am I supposed to believe?” I encourage you to articulate salty sentiments like these in the coming days – with the understanding that by venting your intensity you won’t need to actually act it all out in real life. In other words, allow your fantasy life and creative artistry to be boisterous outlets for emotions that shouldn’t necessarily get translated into literal behavior.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Adyashanti is my favorite mindscrambling philosopher. One of his doses of crazy wisdom is just what you need to hear right now. “Whatever you resist, you become,” he says. “If you resist anger, you are always angry. If you resist sadness, you are always sad. If you resist suffering, you are always suffering. If you resist confusion, you are always confused. We think that we resist certain states because they are there, but actually they are there because we resist them.” Can you wrap your imagination around Adyashanti’s counsel? I hope so, because the key to dissipating at least some of the dicey stuff that has been tweaking you lately is to stop resisting it! SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) During every election season, media pundits exult in criticizing candidates who have altered their opinions about important issues. This puzzles me. In my understanding, an intelligent human is always learning new information about how the world works, and is therefore constantly evolving his or her beliefs and ideas. I don’t trust people who stubbornly cling to all of their musty dogmas. I bring this to your attention because the coming weeks will be an especially ripe time for you to change your mind about a few things, some of them rather important. Be alert for the cues and clues that will activate dormant aspects of your wisdom. Be eager to see further and deeper. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Friedrich Nietzsche published his first book, The Birth of Tragedy, in 1872, when he was 28 years old. In 1886, he put out a revised edition that included a preface titled “An Attempt at Self-Criticism.” In this unprecedented essay, he said that he now found his text “clumsy and embarrassing, its images frenzied and confused, sentimental, uneven in pace, so sure of its convictions that it is above any need for proof.” And yet he also glorified The Birth of Tragedy, praising it for its powerful impact on the world, for its “strange knack of seeking out its fellowrevelers and enticing them on to new secret paths and dancingplaces.” In accordance with the omens, I invite you to engage in an equally brave and celebratory re-evaluation of some of your earlier life and work. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) “Go back to where you started and learn to love it more.” So advised Thaddeus Golas in his book The Lazy Man’s Guide to Enlightenment. I think that’s exactly what you should do right now. To undertake such a quest would reap long-lasting benefits. Here’s what I propose: First, identify three dreams that are important for your future. Next, brainstorm about how you could return to the roots of your relationships with them. Finally, reinvigorate your love for those dreams. Supercharge your excitement about them. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) “What am I doing here in mid-air?” asks Ted Hughes in his poem “Wodwo.” Right about now you might have an urge to wonder that yourself. The challenging part of your situation is that you’re unanchored, unable to find a firm footing. The fun part is that you have an unusual amount of leeway to improvise and experiment. Here’s a suggestion: Why not focus on the fun part for now? You just may find that doing so will minimize the unsettled feelings. I suspect that as a result you will also be able to accomplish some interesting and unexpected work. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) How many fireflies would you have to gather together in order to create a light as bright as the sun? Entomologist Cole Gilbert estimates the number to be 14,286,000,000. That’s probably beyond your ability to accomplish, so I don’t recommend you attempt it. But I bet you could pull off a more modest feat with a similar theme: accumulating a lot of small influences that add up to a big effect. Now is an excellent time to capitalize on the power of gradual, incremental progress.

B Y D A N S AVA G E I’m a 49-year-old gay man. I’ve become friends with a 21-year-old straight guy. He’s really hot. He’s had to drop out of college. I know he needs money, as he has resorted to selling off music equipment. I would love to have some sweaty clothes of his – underwear, or a sweaty tank top. Is it legal to buy someone’s underwear? He’s a sweet guy, and I don’t want to freak him out. How do I broach the subject? Lustfully Obsessed Stink Seeker
It’s perfectly legal to buy and sell used underwear, LOSS, so there’s no legal risk. But you risk losing this guy as a friend. You can approach it indirectly by saying something like “So sorry to hear you’re selling off your music equipment. You’re young and hot – you could probably make more money selling used underwear or sweaty tanks.” Then follow his lead: If he’s disgusted by the suggestion, drop it. If he’s into the idea, offer to be his first customer. I’m a 52-year-old straight guy, 29 years married. About eight years ago, I met a lady at work and we became friends; our friendship continued after she moved to a different job. Both of us are in long-term, committed monogamous relationships. Our friendship is strictly platonic. We share a love of cycling and kayaking. Neither of our partners shares our interest in these outdoor pursuits. My friend does not feel safe doing these activities alone, so often depends on my company for safety. The problem is that my wife gets jealous of the time we spend together and wants me to cut off contact with my friend. My wife does not trust my friend not to “take advantage” of our friendship. My relationship with my wife is the most important one in my life, so I am prepared to say good-bye to my friend. How do I do this in a respectful, caring way? If she asks why, I don’t want to tell her, “Because my wife doesn’t trust you not to try to get inside my pants (or cycling shorts),” as that would be hurtful. I don’t want to lie, but telling the truth would be damaging to my friend. Paddling And Riding Terminates
Your friend is going to waste a lot of time wondering what she did wrong, PART, if you don’t tell her the real reason you can’t hang out with her anymore; this not knowing will cause her more hurt than the truth could. So tell your friend the truth: You’re terminating your friendship because your wife is an insecure bag of slop who regards her as a threat. Your friend has a right to know she’s as blameless as you are spineless. Forgive me for being harsh, but I think standing up to your wife, not dropping your friend, is the best approach to this situation. Before I got married, I asked husband repeatedly about fantasies and kinks. It led to some fun stuff in the bedroom, but we’re both pretty low-grade kinksters. Now I realize that I do something that I have never told him about: the way I masturbate. I started when I was 5 or 6. Got chided by parents and teachers for doing it in public and learned to keep it hidden. Ever since, it’s been my secret thing. I think it has helped me orgasm in that I knew how early on, but it has also made it more difficult to

come in positions that don’t mimic the masturbating position. Husband likes the idea of me coming in different positions, and I’ve managed now and again, but he doesn’t know why I’m set in my ways. We’ve been together for 10 years, but I have never shared this. Should I tell him? Part of me is afraid that he will think I’m weird. But more than likely, he’ll just want to watch me do it. Still, it’s kind of nice having this one thing that belongs only to me. Secret Masturbator Obligated Over Spanking Hotness?
You could hold this back and keep it all for yourself, SMOOSH. But I don’t see why you would want to. As sexy secrets go, “There’s one particular position I like to masturbate in” is pretty boring. Unless you need to be positioned on top of a cadaver or under your dad or beside a life-size Ted Cruz sex doll to get off when you masturbate, there’s really no reason to keep this secret. I am totally with your German friend, who wouldn’t do Nazi role-play “in six million years.” I’ve been in a similar position. I’m a white British guy. A while back, in the U.K., I was dating a woman from Bangalore. She revealed that her deepest fantasy was to be an Indian slave girl raped by an English imperialist. And then, living in the U.S. a few years later, I was dating a black woman, and she revealed that her fantasy was to be a slave on a 19th-century plantation, raped by her white owner. How about some advice for the human fetish objects in these scenarios, Dan? I didn’t want to stigmatize these women for their sexual desires, and I wanted to be GGG, but it was, frankly, hard (or not, as it were). Being asked to use the kind of racial epithets I make every effort to avoid … the guilt is a bonerkiller. Any tips on to get past this mental block and at least act the role enthusiastically enough to fulfill the fantasy? Or was a subsequent girlfriend’s outrage about my willingness to indulge such socially regressive fantasies justified? I Might Play Every Role I’m Asked Less Ideologically Scrupulous Motives
I don’t see why playing monsters in entertainments devised for millions wins Oscars (Christoph Waltz as a Nazi in Inglourious Basterds), BAFTAs (Tim Pigott-Smith as a brutal colonialist in The Jewel in the Crown) and Golden Globes (Michael C. Hall as a sociopathic serial killer in Dexter), but playing a monster for an audience of one should outrage “subsequent girlfriends” or anyone else. My advice for people asked to play monsters in the bedroom mirrors my advice to a gay guy attracted to degrading “anti-gay” gay porn: “A person can safely explore degrading fantasies – even fantasies rooted in ‘hate ideologies’ – so long as he/she is capable of compartmentalizing this stuff. Basically, you have to build a firewall between your fantasies and your self-esteem (and between your fantasies and your politics).” If you can build a firewall between their fantasies and your politics and beliefs, IMPERIALISM, go for it. If you can’t, don’t. On the Lovecast, Dan chats with writer Peggy Orenstein: savagelovecast.com.
