Bearly legal This was a heartbreaking, unnecessary massacre (“Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission closes bear hunt after 48 hours,” Oct. 26). Not what the majority wanted at all. Black bears are not a threat to humans – over 90 percent of their diet is plants and insects, and they are not typically aggressive by nature. It is exceptionally cowardly and cruel to hunt these creatures. Bear-proof trash cans have been proven to reduce bear-human contact by 95 percent. That was the real solution here – not this disastrous hunt.

FWC has proven that it is completely incompetent at managing a bear hunt. Everything they promised wouldn’t happen happened in the first day. Cubs, adolescents and lactating mothers were slaughtered. They went over quota. Evidence is emerging of FWC officers violating the law to let hunters have illegal bears. This hunt must never happen again and the officials and law-breaking officers must be held accountable for what they have done. The false argument that hunting somehow equals conservation is completely debunked and shown to be a fraud.
50 The Week
If a hunt is necessary, then so be it. I would never do it, but that’s my choice. But at least 95 percent of those bears were hunted as trophies and not for food. And pictures of you and the bear you just shot doesn’t impress me at all.

ENDORSEMENTS
Mayor of Orlando: Mayor Buddy Dyer
H
ere’s the thing we hate about endorsements: There is no such thing as a perfect candidate for office. There are no politicians with whom we always agree. There is no local government body that’s as efficient and lean and responsive as it could be. And there’s not a year that goes by when we don’t raise a fist to the sky and curse the powers that be for something boneheaded they’ve done that makes life in the City Beautiful a little bit uglier than it should be. So whenever we endorse a candidate for office, it always feels a little disingenuous – we always have reservations. Take Mayor Buddy Dyer, for instance. He has a vision for this city, and he’s been able to see it through, despite naysayers, despite an economic recession, despite funding shortfalls. But we don’t like that his vision is focused so intently on downtown that we sometimes wonder if he has a real grasp on what goes on in less-desirable neighborhoods. As political activists and community organizers are quick to tell you, there are two Orlandos: There’s the one that’s full of shiny new buildings and soccer stadiums and gastropubs and a high-end performing arts center. Then there’s the one that’s one paycheck away from homelessness – an Orlando that’s being pushed further and further away from the downtown core. That Orlando can’t afford to live in high-rise condos or buy tickets to the theater. That Orlando used to be located in close proximity to downtown, but it’s slowly being pushed aside in the name of progress. The mayor and City Council say their efforts to bring new development downtown will improve adjacent communities, and we hope that’s the case. But will the people who live in those communities now be able to afford what the new downtown Orlando has to offer? If not, where

will they end up when they’ve been displaced? We’d like to hear more from the mayor and City Council on that matter. And that’s where our endorsements come into play this year. We like the life we’ve seen Dyer bring to downtown Orlando. We like that we have a soccer team that people rally around, and that the team plans to base itself in our midst rather than out in the ’burbs. Although we’ve been critical of the process by which it came to be, we like that the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts shows so much promise – and that our downtown now has a centerpiece that’s built on the concept of arts and culture, rather than bar-hopping. We like that the University of Central Florida, which seemed for the longest time more interested in building its own downtown on the east side, is now committed to bringing a new presence to downtown Orlando. We love that downtown is starting to feel like a destination, and we don’t want to see that progress come to a halt. Which we fear is what would happen if a new mayor who disagrees with Dyer and his vision comes to office and decides to dismantle it in the name of tax cuts and downsizing government. There’s a delicate balance that has been struck here, and we don’t think that now is the time to pull the plug. So we’re endorsing Dyer, but with a caveat: Mr. Mayor, in your next term, we want to see your vision for the rest of the city. And by vision, we don’t mean that we want to hear how downtown’s growth is going to have a trickledown effect on surrounding neighborhoods. We want you to tell us how you’re going to make sure that organically unique neighborhoods like Ivanhoe Village don’t just get plowed down by developers who want to capitalize on their cachet. We want you to tell us how you plan to bring economic opportunity to the Orlando that’s struggling to get by on minimum-wage jobs – something that all of the candidates challenging

Commissioner Sam Ings for his District 6 seat have addressed in their campaigns. Maybe you could invite some of them to bring their ideas to you and come up with an economic plan that doesn’t just focus on the city’s infrastructure, but on its people. We’re endorsing you, Mayor Dyer, but that doesn’t mean our support is unconditional. We’re challenging you to use this next term to bring all of Orlando – not just downtown – under your umbrella.
City Council, District 4: Commissioner Patty Sheehan
A
s with Mayor Dyer, we’ve disagreed with Commissioner Patty Sheehan on some of the decisions she’s made during her tenure in office. However, she’s nothing if not dedicated to her job, her district and the city. Her challengers bring valid concerns about city governance to the table – the city’s residents certainly deserved more discussion about raising the city’s property taxes by $1 for every $1,000 of property value before commissioners signed off on it, for instance – but of all the commissioners sitting on City Council now, Sheehan is not the one with whom we have the most concerns. Unlike some of her col-
leagues, she’s been outspoken even when her point of view has been unpopular and she’s been critical of the mayor’s administration when nobody else was speaking up. Sheehan is refreshingly plainspoken, a passionate public servant and an accessible representative for her district.
City Council, District 6: Ka’Juel Washington
T
echnically, we’d like to say that voters in District 6 should vote for anybody but incumbent Commissioner Sam Ings, who couldn’t even be bothered to give us a phone interview this campaign season. Ings is facing four challengers, and we’re throwing our support behind Ka’Juel Washington. While he’s not the most politically experienced of the candidates, he holds a law degree, he volunteers with the Coalition for the Homeless, and he’s passionate about raising the minimum wage for lower-income workers. In fact, his economic platform focuses on ensuring that any business contracting with the city pays workers a living wage of $15 per hour. That’s something we can get behind. feedback@orlandoweekly.com

In this week’s issue, we’re telling you tales from the dark side Even the most cynical among us can’t resist a good horror story – there’s something primal about allowing the imagination to conjure the worst-case scenario, the scariest psychic phenomenon, the darkest basement. So we reached out to local writers to ask them to tell us their best horror stories. The first two, from a connoisseur of Orlando’s most haunted and horrifying locales, are true stories; the others are fictional tales written by local authors who participated in There Will Be Words’ Halloween flash fiction reading on Oct. 13, at which writers had 500 words in which to tell the scariest stories they could conjure. Enjoy.
THE
DOCTOR IS IN By MichaE l Gavin

a
s if being located next to a cemetery weren’t frightening enough, murder, mystery and despair fuel the frequent paranormal activity found at one of Central Florida’s most haunted houses: a ballroom-style Queen Anne Victorian built in 1903 that was originally located across from Apopka’s oldest cemetery. In the 1920s, a physician named Dr. Thomas McBride bought the mansion. He lived with his wife, Helen, on the second floor and saw patients on the first. For more than 50 years, the good doctor kept up his practice, and countless lives were ushered into the world by the popular doc. In 1956, though, his wife, an aviation trainer, took things in a darker direction. “Apopka, FL (United Press) – Mrs. Helen McBride confessed to shooting
an airline ticket agent to death after he slapped her down in a property argument, police said.” Charles Richard Green, who worked for National Airlines in Orlando, was shot dead in the McBrides’ home. Helen McBride was allegedly confined to the home after the murder, thanks to her husband’s influence and prominence. She died in the master bedroom of her home some five years later. She passed in her white gown early one morning. Dr. McBride remained in practice at the home until his own passing in 1978. For seven years after that, the house stood abandoned, an empty, neglected murder mansion, silently standing guard over the adjacent cemetery. Soon, visions of ghosts roaming the second floor, tales of doors opening and closing on their own and strange sounds fueled the local lore. In the 1980s, the McBride home was under threat of demolition, so it was moved to its current location on Main Street in Apopka. The building was expanded and updated, and in the 1990s, CONTINUED ON PaGe 12 ●

it was equipped to function as a modern restaurant. Patrons of the establishment soon began to notice that all was not well. According to one worker, “There were reports of a lady in a blue dress walking down the stairs. [People would] move out of the way to let her by. The stairs were rampant with cold spots, and lights would turn off and on by themselves. I worked there one Halloween. They were having a séance on the third floor, and the chandeliers were swaying violently on the second floor. I left after my shift, and the air felt heavy.” Others recalled that another manager would be sure to wish the empty building good night upon turning off the lights for the evening. The popular dining destination went bankrupt, leaving Dr. McBride’s home to once again sit abandoned – this time, for another 11 years. Or so it would seem. Witnesses claim to have seen lights in the attic, spectral forms gliding past windows, even screams heard from within the vacant Victorian mansion. Alarms would draw the police, only for them to find the premises secure with no evidence of intrusion. One account tells of an investigator who noticed a curtain drawn back and a light on in the second-floor window. Empty, dark and foreboding (if not decaying), the home bore the mantle of a classic haunted house, making a perfect setting for Halloween events – and over the years, it was home to several. While planning for one such event, Keith Lock, of Magical Art and Design, toured the sec-

Some say location is the key to success, but if that were the case, one would think that a historic building just a few steps from the hustle and bustle of Orange Avenue and at the back door to Church Street would be the perfect place for a long-lasting club. However, the two-story structure at 17 W. Pine St. has endured many incarnations: the Blue Room, Deja Vu, Liquid Night Club, Club Zen, Voyage Night Club. What many people don’t know is that the building is known as a gateway for phantoms, haunts and spirits. In the late 1800s, a man named Elijah

ond floor. As he and his team entered what used to be the master bedroom, he noticed a portrait of the doctor. “We walked through to lay the plot of the haunt,” he says. “Shortly after, we went downstairs and heard a crash from the second floor. When we got to the room, the portrait was face down on the floor. No one else was in the building, the windows were closed and there was no air moving in the room.” During a Halloween radio broadcast in 1999, more than faux phantoms haunted the home. Reporters were taunted by sounds thudding from the locked thirdfloor attic, chilling drops in temperature and the sensation of unseen objects brushing by. At another event for a group of horror writers, handprints allegedly materialized and danced around the possibly possessed portrait of Dr. McBride. During a recent photo shoot at the majestic mansion, chandeliers swayed as if from a phantom breeze in the otherwise still, quiet ballroom. Some may recall this building as the Captain and Cowboy restaurant that was once located here. To others, it will always be known as Townsend’s Plantation, socalled for the Orlando lawyer who moved the home from Apopka-Greenwood cemetery to its current location at the corner of routes 436 and 441. But to most, this venerable Victorian mansion, which is now owned by the city of Apopka, is known as Highland Manor, a popular venue for weddings and other private events.
Hand moved to Orlando. He was a skilled carpenter, and he set up shop in the building at 15-17 W. Pine St. While his retail furniture business benefited homes across the community, Hand had a far greater impact on Central Florida with his other, more unconventional talent – he was an undertaker. Not just any undertaker – he was the first in town. Prior to his arrival, people who passed away needed to be buried within a day or two of their death because there was no way to slow the process of decay. A new process of preservation called embalming allowed families to delay burial for several days, giving families time to contact distant loved ones who wished to pay their respects. This new way of preserving bodies was brought to Orlando by Hand, who set up a furniture and funeral business in CONTINUED ON PaGe 14

the heart of downtown. Elijah Hand was eventually succeeded by his son, Carey, in 1914. By 1920 a new funeral home was built across the street (in what is now one of UCF’s downtown campus buildings), known as the Carey Hand Funeral Home. It was the first in the region with a chapel, and a few years later it also had the distinction of being the first with a crematorium. The original Hand funeral home at 15-17 W. Pine St., meanwhile, served as a daycare and a school. Renovations in 1985 brought the property up to date with its current look as a nightclub, but it seems that workers may have disturbed more than just dust during their renovations. In addition to reports that people could hear phantom footsteps emanating from the second floor, nightclub acts waiting in the upstairs green room complained of a heavy presence in the air. Some reported seeing ghosts of a woman or small children running about on the second floor. A TV psychic once filmed a segment of her cable TV show from the second floor of the former funeral parlor. Encountering several spirits during her walkthrough, she confirmed the name of one of the spirits as Robert. When preparations began for the first Orlando Hauntings Ghost Tours in October 2000, the venue was home to the Blue Room nightclub. Employees of the club described feeling cold spots and sensing eerie activity in the building. One employee told us that she befriended the young child of the club’s owners, and that he would come running to greet her whenever she called his name. One day, she said, she called for the child, and he didn’t respond.
Alarmed, she called out for him several times while searching the first floor. She ran upstairs to the second floor, calling the child’s name again, searching from office to office. She finally found him sitting cross-legged on the floor in one of the rooms, and she was taken aback by the sinister grin on his face. She scolded him, demanding to know what he was up to. In a voice that was clearly not that of a little boy he replied: “Just playing.” After some interrogation, the child told her that he was entertaining an imaginary friend by the name of Mr. Robert. The child was never allowed to play on the second floor again. These days, the building is once again active as a nightclub known as Ice Orlando, and the most popular spirits available are those served to the patrons at the bar – perhaps a fitting remedy to mask the cold spots that were once reported to spook visitors to the former Elijah Hand furniture store and funeral parlor. Will the new life brought to 17 W. Pine St. be enough to keep the building’s ghosts at bay, or will the building eventually succumb to its darker design? Find out for yourself. Michael Gavin began his spirited journey working at Terror on Church Street (which he says was haunted). He wrote and co-produced Orlando’s first haunted history tour in 2000. He’s also been a commercial photographer, co-host of a paranormal radio show and a writer for GHOST! Magazine. As the “Paranormal Paparazzi,” his photos (and writings) have been published in Forbes, Playboy, the St. Augustine Entertainer, Inside the Magic and Gores Truly. He’s currently crafting a book chronicling his ghostly adventures and dark-themed photography.

that it might all have something to do with the nukes Russia dropped and GMOs and vaccines. Near as anyone can tell, it went down like this: Climate change and global warming led to large swaths of land no longer being arable and the sharp decline in agricultural yields caused the price of food to skyrocket.

civil unrest broke out, the whole country went post-Katrina, rioting, looting. People protested the austerity measures and martial law and the curfew, but the response from the militarized police and National Guard was so swift and forceful that all dissent was quickly quelled. But then illegal aliens carrying Ebola, terrorists who’d infected themselves with the virus, crossed the border, disguised as refugees seeking asylum from our airstrikes and immigrants coming here to steal free healthcare and welfare. Biochemical warfare, up close and personal, sandwich artists sneezing on your 6-inch, commuters coughing on the subway. The first wave was Suicide Ebola bombers, but suddenly anyone under the weather was an unwitting accomplice of the IS. With everyone concentrated in population centers, the plague was uncontrollable. After months and months of going without fresh fruit or vegetables, of eating wheat rations and meat pumped full of antibiotics, our entire country was left immuno-compromised. Everyone walking around overweight and weak and tired, feeling that feeling you get right before you get sick, only all the time. And so the epidemic washed over every city in waves. The Soviets, spooked about being next, split an atom over every major metropolis and declared a quarantine to isolate the outbreak.

t was a stormy Saturday night at Tyler’s house. Fish stick night. His mother, Joyce, was out on a date. She worked a lot too, and over time, Tyler had gotten used to making his own meals. He planned to take advantage of the evening alone and watch a horror movie. The weekend before, his friend Ryan had been over and
the blasts catalyzed a heretofore unrecognized reaction between a component found in many common vaccines and a chemical byproduct of the agricultural methods used in growing GMO wheat – presto! Geiger-emitting Ebola zombies, puking and shitting irradiated, infectious necro-waste, eating anything and anyone they can find before they fall over to become biohazardous landmines. The only survivors now navigate the perpetual dismal dusk of a dead and decaying society. The fetid stench of a rotting and rancid civilization filling our every breath, we search for canned food from one safe house to the next, hoping to come into contact with any other immunes not carrying the virus but hopefully carrying some spam. Or Chef Boyardee. I’ve been holed up here for days, trying to call anyone, anywhere to figure out where to head next, but the landlines went with the electricity. I’ve already siphoned every gas tank around that isn’t a diesel and now the generator’s almost out of gas and I’m down to my last two tins of Hormel. Sitting on a half-collapsed wall, watching the last lights on the horizon go as the grid finally gives out, the last gasp of our once great nation, my reverie is interrupted by a ringing. The phone! I rush down the ladder and lunge for the receiver – “Hello!” “Hello, this is American Education Services calling on behalf of Sallie Mae with an important message about your student loans.” JC Sevcik is on the board of directors of Seattle City of Literature, and he is the current writer in residence at the Kerouac House.
they binge-watched the Friday the 13th series, ending on Jason Takes Manhattan, which wasn’t really true of the title – most of it took place on a boat. Tyler’s mother didn’t like him watching slasher movies. Or horror movies. Or anything entertaining, for that matter. But with her out of the picture, he was prepared to watch something that he had only heard about. A movie so scary, it didn’t even have name. A movie reportedly banned in 51 countries. A movie people boasted of having watched as an act of bravery. Tyler doubted its existence, and that night, he was determined to find out. Ryan gave him a bootleg copy of the supposed movie after school on Friday in a brown paper bag. “Did you watch it?” Tyler asked with CONTINUED ON PaGe 17 ●

anticipation. “Nah, man,” Ryan said. “What the hell?” Tyler said. “Why not?” “Haven’t gotten a chance yet. You wanna borrow it, or what?” Tyler put the tape in his backpack. “I guess one of us has to have some guts around here,” he said, walking off. Thunder rumbled from outside, growing louder as rain beat against the windows. Tyler sat on his living room couch with a plate of fish sticks and ketchup and pressed play on the VCR remote. Wavy tracking lines ran across the black screen. There was no title, no production company, and no opening credits. It opened with a shot of a horrific screeching female ghoul with long, stringy hair. Her eyes were a fiery yellow and her mouth was agape with jagged, bloody teeth. Tyler felt unnerved, but he wasn’t afraid. It was just weird. The scene cut to a darkened cell where a naked man crawled on the ground, moaning in agony. His railthin body was bruised and battered.
He looked up at the camera, revealing two mangled holes where his eyes had been stabbed out. “Please…” he cried in a desperate voice. “Turn it off!” Tyler took a bite of fish sticks and shook his head. Another boom of thunder sounded from outside, followed by flashes of lightning. The metallic door to the prisoner’s cell swung open as two wolf-like mongrels with long snouts and red eyes stormed inside and tore the man to pieces. The camera didn’t shy away. The film quality looked cheap, but the special effects were top-notch. Just as the scene cut to another similar-looking cell and prisoner, the power went out. After his initial annoyance, Tyler felt a chill, and his imagination began running wild in the darkness. Lightning flashed, and he could have sworn he saw something in the kitchen. A lanky figure with wild hair. His heart raced as goosebumps covered his arms. “Mom?” he said nervously. He sat frozen to the couch, waiting for a response, but there was no answer. Then the room went black again.

TONIGHT’S THE NIGHT n By To M lu c aS
eekademus, Master Demonologist and part-time necromancer, let out a chuckle. It had taken five arduous cycles of traveling to forgotten places to gather each element that the infernal forces of evil required. But before the sun rose again, they would pay. All those who had laughed at him saying, “Nick, stop this two-bit rennie fair bullshit. You’re over 60. You can’t walk around dressed as Gandalf any more.” All those who had mocked him over the years and made him feel less than. To hell with them all. Literally. Tonight he would summon a demon and the world would tremble before him. He could already hear them begging for their pathetic lives. Joy! The day had been spent preparing the summoning chamber – the basement of a local Knights of Columbus hall, of which he was a board member. Board members got full access. You only had to agree to brew the coffee for the monthly pancake breakfast – a no-brainer. In the center of the room was the expected pentagram, drawn out using the ashes of 100 executed murderers. This wasn’t required, but when summoning a demon, go big. Surrounding the pentagram were protective glyphs painted with his own blood. He had only one candlestick, but when your “Hand of Glory” candlestick is made using the right hand of Jeffrey Dahmer, you don’t need a second. He threw toxic herbs on a brazier fueled by the finest Chernobyl coal. Acrid clouds of green smoke began to plume.

Reading from a cursed grimoire, Neekademus prattled his way through some ancient tongue as he completed the ritual with care and precision. With the last words uttered, he waited. Nothing. He made another attempt and then another. Nothing. He scanned the room. Ah, the mandrake root. Quickly he threw it onto the burning coals. Shazam! A noxious cloud of death! There! A classic demon – a big red beast with rows of sharp teeth and black leathery wings appeared in the center of the pentagram. “Demon! I summoned you and as such, I now control you.” “Really?” Smiling, it stepped out of the pentagram. Neekademus stammered. “You aren’t supposed to do that.” He snatched the grimoire, pointing at its pages. The demon grabbed him by the shoulders and lifted him into the air. “I’m going to eat you,” it said. “I will swallow you in one gulp. I’m feeling generous tonight.” “I don’t understand. Every component of the spell was satisfied. We should be out conquering my sworn enemies. Not this.” “You forgot one very important thing.” It licked its lips. “What?” “Eye of Newt.” “No. I have plenty of that. Check out the spice rack in the corner.” “That I see, but that’s regular Eye of Newt. My summoning requires something much more evil. The Eye of Newt …” “No. Don’t say it.” “Gingrich.” The demon swallowed Neekademus whole. He rubbed his full belly. “They always fuck that up. Classic.” feedback@orlandoweekly.com

rescue the rattiest bedsheet from a nearby clothing donation box. I trim it to where I think I could see Neil’s knees and feet. I cut two eyeholes, arm holes, and a slit where I think his mouth would likely be. Neil frowns when he sees the bedsheet body stretched taut between my fingers. He wants to say: This is the third year in a row. “Pretend you’re your mother this time,” I say.

Avant Garde Bridging a 70-year career, 35 paintings by the tireless painter Harold Garde signify a steady point of view By Richa R d Reep HAROLD GARDE: MID-CENTURY TO THIS CENTURY through Jan. 3, 2016 | Orlando Museum of Art, 2416 N. Mills Ave. | 407-896-4231 | omart.org | $10
ARTWORK BY HAROLD GARDE; GALLERY ViEW COuRTEsY Of OMA
l
ovely green Loch Haven Park, with its suburban sense of place, seems so relatable, so friendly. When the Orlando Museum of Art decamps for downtown, sometime in the indeterminate future decade, one hopes this accessibility is somehow portable. Inside, the museum connects viewers to the contemporary art scene like few other local institutions, and the seeker is, this fall, rewarded with two stellar shows. MetaModern explores the world of design since the 1950s, while Harold Garde gives us a beautiful and accessible experience from the same period. He reminds us that abstract expressionism isn’t all stern minimalism, but can be, rather, a rich and colorful interior experiment. Artists and inventors share the same gene pool. Garde’s “Strappo” technique reinvented printmaking by adapting its process to painting and canvas: lifting painting off one surface (glass) onto another surface for viewing. Strappo’s look is unique, emblematic of the flatness so coveted by abstract expressionists. A wall of these paintings greets viewers as they enter the first of the Lockheed Martin galleries, each one a study in line and composition as intense and fresh as the larger canvases surrounding them. OMA drew from Garde’s recent work,
which explores the figure in such pieces as “Big Band Jazz” – eerie because it’s so recent the paint’s probably still wet, but so retro in its subject matter. A whorl structure, its center defined in the lower right by a small spiral, is populated by repeating figures of black, red and apple-green, seeming to throw off gases of yellow and orange. It is a beautiful expression of a moment of music, set floating in a cyanic field. Garde’s midcentury work, after he graduated from Columbia University, populates the other gallery devoted to this exhibit. Here, amongst a variety of styles, he can be seen finding his voice and making references to Picasso and Matisse, among others. “Urban Autumn,” from 1959, animates the canvas with a mature look. It is a nod to Picasso, with a cubist figure in the center painted in a meaty cadmium orange. Yet it is wholly his own, an early structure of black gestural lines originating in the canvas but leaving it, anchoring the image as so many of his works do with hidden rigor. Born in 1923, the artist splits his time between New Smyrna Beach and Maine. His signature is the beauty that abstraction can have, and he delivers the idea that interior experience can be expressed to others. Neither vision is easy, which is why this show should be seen. “We do these things,” said one noted president of the American midcentury, “not because they are easy, but because they are hard.” It is well to remember that statement, and look at what Garde has accomplished in his career.

ithout new music, there is no music.” That simple maxim is the unofficial motto of the Accidental Music Festival, and it’s a viewpoint that enlivens a new generation of classical fans. The idea of the classical music listeneras-grayhair is an outdated one; festivals around the country like Big Ears, Ecstatic Music and Bang on a Can draw crowds of mostly young fans and showcase the work of mostly young musicians, usually playing compositions by living composers, often in venues more used to hosting rock bands rather than concert halls. Locally, the greening of the classical audience is gaining ground. The Orlando Philharmonic’s new (33-year-old) music director debuted last week, and his first official concert included a piece by young composer Gabe Kahane. The OPO’s 2013
purchase of the Plaza, in recent years a bastion of rock shows, was another inspired move into new territory. In 2012, the Bach Festival Society, best known for performing sacred choral music, presented “Modern Masterworks,” a concert featuring six living composers; in a promo video, BFS director Dr. John Sinclair admitted that the program was daring for a group that “specializes in dead Western European men.” And in 2011, the Accidental Music Festival itself was born. That first year included a lot of improvised music, but also performances of works by Juan Trigos, John Alvarez and Orlando’s Keith Lay. Accidental Music Festival has grown and evolved since its inception; now entering its fifth season, the fest has remained committed to presenting the new-new. The first show of the 2015-2016 season features Yarn/Wire, a quartet of two percussionists and two pianists that has gained rapturous praise from the New York Times, the Guardian, the Wire and National Public Radio. A TimeOut New York review characterized the quartet as “spare, strange, and very, very new.” Which, of course, puts
them right in AMF’s wheelhouse. “We’ve wanted to bring Yarn/Wire down for a while,” says Chris Belt, AMF program director. “We’re excited to introduce them to Central Florida.” The quartet – percussionists Ian Antonio and Russell Greenberg, and pianists Laura Barger and Ning Yu – plans a daring program of new works, none written before 2010: David Bird’s Mediums (2015), Joseph DiPonio’s Chora (2010), Sam Pluta’s Seven (2015) and Steve Reich’s Quartet (2013). The Reich piece received its world premiere in 2014 in London; Accidental Music Festival presents its Southeastern U.S. premiere. Reich, of course, is known for (among other things) creating intricate melody with percussion, so his works are well-suited to Yarn/Wire’s strengths. “People often write for the piano as though it is a percussion instrument, using scrapes, harmonics, playing inside the instrument, because of the possibilities afforded by pioneers like John Cage, but also because such sounds don’t carry as much historical weight as harmonies, for instance,” Greenberg says. “Some of the most interesting pieces have been by people who tackle all the inherent challenges of the group.” Reich has said of his Quartet that “it calls for a high level of ensemble virtuosity” – a requirement that seems tailor-made for Yarn/Wire.

For someone who started designing multimedia spectacles for Disneyland in the 1970s and helped create iconic attractions like Epcot’s American Adventure, it’s surprising to hear Allen declare technology the least important element of good storytelling and preach resistance against the rush to make everything kinetic. He’s also refreshingly un-Disney in his frankness, whether dissing a Wall Street Journal article about the “museum of the future” as “totally off-base” or lamenting the practice in China of pouring foundations before deciding the building’s purpose. But despite the rush toward a brave new wired world, he’s optimistic that human imagination will never be obsolete, saying, “The best simulator, best ride system, best theater in the world is about five millimeters behind your eyes.”
BOB ALLEN, “CHIEF STORYTELLING OFFICER” OF IDEAS
BY SETH KUBERSKY

Two real-life mad scientists animated Orlando on Back to the Future Day Oct. 21, 2015, came and went last week, and the glaring absence of flying cars in our day-to-day lives didn’t prevent the global media from going gaga over Back to the Future. Everyone from USA Today and Nike and Toyota to our very own Orlando Museum of Art launched campaigns capitalizing on the moment when Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd arrived in the distant year of 2015, but celebrations at Universal Studios Florida – former home to the franchise’s thrill ride – were surprisingly subtle. Doc Brown (as embodied by actor Chris Prueitt) emceed the morning brass-band sets and was mobbed during his daily meetand-greets, with scores of guests waiting up to an hour for his 4:29 p.m. appearance. A ceremony to mark the moment with some pyro would have been appreciated by the fans; even so, they sold out the park’s supply of ceremonial T-shirts. It’s fitting that, before snapping my selfie with Doc and his DeLorean, I spent Back to the Future Day with two real-life mad scientists (in the best sense) who have been to the past, seen the future and returned to tell us that “something’s got to be done about [our] kids.”
Bob Allen came to the Orlando Museum of Art’s lunchtime lecture Art Sandwiched In to deliver a warning: The cyborgs are coming. He’s glimpsed a world where human-electronic hybrids who only care about their own needs, who suffer from crippling time poverty and crave ever-more-intense experiences, are pounding at the doors of our cultural institutions. No, Allen isn’t a post-apocalyptic novelist; he’s an ex-Imagineer and Chief Storytelling Officer of IDEAS, concept designers of attractions worldwide. And the hordes he speaks of aren’t some zombie menace, but the next generation of arts patrons that museums and theaters had better start appealing to. Allen’s clients include Universal and Disney, OSC and MOSI, NASA and the Navy. But even without a billion-dollar budget, his observations can apply to any kind of show, event or classroom: Don’t begin with a particular tool or cool toy in mind; start instead by understanding your specific audience and defining your objectives. The human brain has evolved to respond to stories, not bullet points, so give your presentation character, action, emotion and a unique voice to make it personally relevant. A good story creates a feedback loop with the listener that is more immersive than any Oculus Rift, and an engaging docent is the best interactive system ever developed.
Dr. Robert F. Stonerock Jr. passed away Oct. 10, but as the family and friends who filled Rollins College’s Knowles Memorial Chapel last Wednesday can testify, his influence on Central Florida will be felt far into the future. Stonerock’s memorial was conducted in the same hall where he and actress Marty Stonerock were married by director-performer Peg O’Keef. The service touched on his rich life and diverse interests: from Boone High student and Eagle Scout to research physician and caring clinician; from doting father and supportive husband to arts enthusiast and environmental pioneer. O’Keef read Mrs. Stonerock’s remembrances, and director Leander Suleiman recited Chelsea Stonerock’s final letter to her father, followed by eulogies from close colleagues (including Mad Cow Theatre’s Mitzi Maxwell) and a final farewell written by Bob and delivered by Rus Blackwell. Stonerock was a board member of Mad Cow Theatre, where Marty has performed numerous times, and his support helped build their new Church Street home, where one of the stages bears his name. His commitment to the company was truly hands-on: He built the cow lobby display and placed thermometers to cut the airconditioning bill. His other great passions were the Messiah Choral Society, of which he was a cornerstone member, and clean energy. An avid advocate of recycling and renewables, Stonerock was the first in our area to not only generate enough solar electricity to power his home, but sell a surplus back to the utility. We may not have hoverboards, but Bob’s “tower of power” backyard solar panel array is proof positive of Doc Brown’s prophecy: The future is whatever you make it. skubersky@orlandoweekly.com ●

MasterChef Season One winner Whitney Miller will be the new chef de cuisine at John Rivers’ Southern cafeteria de luxe the Coop. Her debut was at last week’s Cows ’n Cabs party, where she showcased newly developed menu items for the Winter Park mainstay. Look for the Carnival Corner at this year’s Food & Wine Classic at the Swan & Dolphin Hotel. The fest’s newest section will serve carnival fare (corn dogs! funnel cake! kettle corn!) from food trucks; access is included in the standard admission ($105). Breyting Community Roaster, a state-ofthe-art coffee processor in DeLand, celebrates its grand opening with public tours from 3-6 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 7; from 7-10 p.m., an after-party featuring B-52s frontman Fred Schneider takes over the upstairs lounge at Byte Modern Bistro. Schneider helped craft Fred Schneider’s Monster Blend, one of Breyting’s signature roasts. OPENINGS Merguez is open in the former Atlas House space on International Drive. Good to see another option for Moroccan fare, especially since Pasha’s closure … JJ’s Grille will open a second location in Altamonte Springs … Another Santiago’s Bodega will open in Altamonte either the first week or second week of November.

could start by saying that short of a complete overhaul of its kitchen staff, ingredients and cooking practices, Braccia Pizzeria & Ristorante should close immediately and let a more worthy restaurant open in its place. But that would sound unreservedly harsh, so I’ll just say this: You’re free to take that culinary death wish of yours and go try Braccia for yourself. Naturally, I’d highly advise against such a reckless act of gastronomic masochism, but if the notion is one being taken into serious consideration, then I sincerely hope the ensuing words will help sway your decision. So, with apologies to the ink, paper and online real estate without which this review wouldn’t exist, here goes. Braccia isn’t hard to find – just look for the server standing outside coyly doing his or her best to lure patrons into this (admittedly inviting) sanctuary of secondrate fare. It once housed the much better Café 118°, but now pizza and pasta with Brazilian leanings is the cuisine du jour. That’s not necessarily a bad thing. But when
the carpaccio ($13.50) is copiously drizzled with a honey-mustard “caper sauce,” and the accompanying mixed greens smell and taste like fish – that is a bad thing. Perhaps the fishy essence came from the plate’s close proximity to the fish en croûte ($26.90), a pricey piece of chestnut-crusted cod nuzzled up next to a mound of risotto. Now, the flesh of cod is typically white, with a texture that’s firm yet flaky. What we got instead was a fibrous lump of stringy pink flesh, which, on digging through my memory banks, wound up being the worst piece of fish I’ve ever had the displeasure of bringing to my mouth. Out of curiosity, I asked where they sourced their cod, expecting “North Atlantic” or “Pacific” to be the response. Instead, the server busts out, “It’s from Sysco.” OK, then. The servers, bless their hearts, really do their best, but it’s a losing battle given what they have to work with. On to the pasta. The fettucine puttanesca ($12.90) was the most digestible of the dishes we ordered, but any college stoner worth his weight in weed could do better. Pizzas drew a mixed reaction – some in my party didn’t mind the crackly crust; I took more negatively to it. One thing we all agreed on: The overpriced pizzas, like chicken
with catupiry ($16.50), looked just plain ugly. Shredded fowl with drizzles of soft Brazilian processed cheese don’t make for a looker of a pie, and the fact that the flavors were so bland made it altogether a waste of time and effort. It’s not like the calabresa ($13.90) with smoked sausage, olives, mozzarella and pomodoro was much better, but at least it wasn’t any worse; the toppings just didn’t look or taste fresh. There is a grace note: If you’re repulsed at the thought of touching said toppings, plastic gloves – that’s right, plastic gloves – are available at every table for diners to wear while eating. Hey, at least Braccia won’t pose a threat to real pizzerias like Rome’s Flavours across the street or Prato around the corner. They’ve got nothing to fear. I could end by talking about goopy chocolate dessert pizza ($12.90) or ho-hum homemade churros with dulce de leche ($6.90), but I want to end in a more positive fashion by saying this: I will make a return trip to Braccia. No, not for the food – don’t be crazy – but for the fresh-squeezed juice of pineapple and mint ($6.10 per glass; $8.10 per jar). Braccia Juice Bar – has a nice ring to it, doesn’t it?

A tasty lunch shouldn’t cost more than $10, so every month we round up 10 suggestions for cheap eats. Got one for us? Send nom-nominations to jyoung@orlandoweekly.com. 4 rivers Smokehouse
JJ’s Grille
multiple locations, 4rsmokehouse.com With the opening of 4 Rivers’ City Hall location, the smokehouse officially becomes lunch-appropriate. Any of the signature sandwiches (we like the burnt ends, $8.99) comes with two sides and will put you in a food coma back at your desk; consider a sideboard sampler instead – three of those sides plus a biscuit, $6.99.
2950 Curry Ford Road, 407-802-2947, myjjsgrille.com A Mexican-Mediterranean take on Chipotle-style dining: Choose burrito, salad, pita or rice bowl (ranging from $6.50 to $7.40) and choose your own adventure by topping with your personal combination of meats, legumes, fresh veggies and sauces. Don’t skip the “J-Bouli” tabbouleh.
arepas & More Café
larkin’s Famous Subs
207 N. Bumby Ave., 407-894-5262, arepasandmore.com This Milk District mainstay predates that neighborhood nickname by about a decade; their pollo guisado (chicken stew) is total grandma food and, ladled over a plate of rice and beans, one of the best deals in town at $4.99.
7728 Daetwyler Drive, 407-859-9634 Ultra-devoted fans of the mom-and-pop sub shop with a nautical theme were dismayed when the owners announced they’d be closing Dec. 4. Go in for one last Murphey’s sub: chicken, bacon and Swiss, $9.79 (add whole-grain mustard); you are guaranteed leftovers.
Baoery asian Gastropub
Meatball Shoppe
617 E. Central Blvd., 407-849-9779, baoery.com Chef Greg Richie’s latest concept, an “Asian gastropub,” might not technically belong on a list of cheap eats. But it’s nice to explore a new joint once in a while, and a dish of the rich, kimchi-laced mac & cheese ($5) and a pile of crisp tempura broccoli ($5) together come in under $10 … if you don’t count tax and tip.
7325 Lake Underhill Road, 407-270-6505, themeatballshoppe.co Choose from seven kinds of meatballs and five different sauces, then pick a presentation – over salad, in a sandwich, etc. We liked the spicy pork ($8.75) with roasted tomato sauce, atop white bean ragout, with salad and focaccia on the side.
dandelion Communitea Café
multiple locations, pitapitusa.com The Pit is a late-night classic – some are open as late as 4 a.m. – but shouldn’t be overlooked as a healthy lunch option. We crave the chicken souvlaki pita, grilled and bursting with crunchy vegetables doused in secret sauce ($6.59).
618 N. Thornton Ave., 407-362-1864, dandelioncommunitea.com Midday Monday is usually a madhouse at Dandelion, seeing as it’s “Giddyup Monday,” an almost-half-price take on their super-popular Giddyup, a roll-it-or-bowl-it concoction of housemade veggie chili topped with diced tomatoes and scallions, vegan queso or organic cheddar, and a handful of blue corn chips. Regularly $9, it’s just $5 on Mondays – order online to shave off a little line time.
Goldenkrust multiple locations, orlandogoldenkrust.com The Bronx-based Jamaican chain is known for its spot-on patties, but a full meal – protein plus rice and peas, steamed veg and plantains – can be had for well under $10. We like the goat curry, $7.95.
Pita Pit
Shake Shack 119 N. Orlando Ave., Winter Park, 321-203-5130; 8359 International Drive, 407-205-0362, shakeshack.com We may not be New York, where the Shack often boasts lines hundreds long, but it can get crowded. The burgers are worth the wait, though, as is the Shackmeister dog with cheddar cheese sauce and ale-marinated chopped shallots ($4) sided with crinkle-cut fries slathered in more of that addictive cheese sauce ($3.95).

Seito Sushi Baldwin Park sushi joint appears refreshed and revitalized, and their dishes ever more Japanese. A weekend-only izakaya menu is worth a look for its chimichurri-torched wahoo and bo ssam bao buns. Ramen (try the shoyu) really impresses, as does the moriawase (chef’s selection) of sashimi, save for mealy tuna. A roll fashioned from lobster, American wagyu and truffle aioli will cater to the bon vivant in you, though desserts like tepid bananas Foster and spice-less five-spice French toast won’t. A requisite selection of craft cocktails and a decent selection of sake, wine and beer keep guests slaked. Open daily. 4898 New Broad St., 407-898-8801; $$$
Slate It’s a “see and be seen” kind of place, but chef Dominic Rice serves up seasonal dishes that, for the most part, are competently executed. Oak-fired pizzas (a necessity, it seems, for any new joint worth its weight) are worth a look, as is the gnocchi with short rib Bolognese. A heavy-handed spice rub marred delicate tilefish, but succulent flatiron steak served with crisp green beans, marble potatoes and smoked butter is nice. Sticky toffee pudding makes for a saucy ending. Decent wine and cocktail list. Open daily. 8323 Sand Lake Road, 407-500-7528; $$$
The Boathouse Giant house of boating paraphernalia and seaside eats is the proverbial anchor in the restaurant makeover at Disney Springs. Just as vast is the selection of seafood and steak items offered at inflated prices. Lobster cocktail and middleneck clams from Cedar Key make a nice start, but consult Seafood Watch prior to ordering the catch of the day. Steaks are stellar; desserts (like Key lime pie in a Mason jar and berry-coulissaturated chocolate bundt cake) are not. Open daily. 1620 E. Buena Vista Drive, Lake Buena Vista, 407-939-2628; $$$$

chaat items, like bhel puri, chole bhatura and veg samosas. Mains like masala bhindi (okra) and aloo saag (creamy spinach with potatoes) are properly spiced and simply delightful. 4642 S. Kirkman Road, 407-730-8800; $$
Bavaro’s Pizza Napoletana & Pastaria Not your average pizza and pasta joint, this Winter Springs hotspot draws them in for Neapolitan-style pies and house-made, hand-cut tagliatelle and ravioli. The star is the Neapolitan-made brick oven, which churns out perfectly blistered pizzas, be it your basic margherita or the weighted and eggy carciofi con uovo. A stellar Bolognese sauce highlights the tagliatelle; to end without sampling either the cannoli or tiramisu would be a mistake. 1468 Tuskawilla Road, Winter Springs, 321-422-3600; $$$
Union Burger The better burger movement gets the Canadian treatment at this Lake Nona outpost of this Ontario-based chain, but don’t blame Canada for the subpar poutine served here, or the overdone burgers and dogs. Shakes veer on the sweet side, but locals will appreciate Cigar City brews and Quantum Leap wines. 9680 Narcoossee Road, 407-745-4510; $
Mark’s Caribbean Cuisine UCF-area jerk joint isn’t in the tidiest of strip malls, but the Jamaican fare is neat-o. Yes, the jerk chicken is top-notch, but the supremely tender oxtail stew is what regulars come back for. Plush cuts of goat in a heady curry gratify, as does traditional ackee and saltfish. Servers are friendly, but don’t expect to be wowed by the decor. 10034 University Blvd., 407-699-8800; $
Korea House The Colonial Drive outpost of Korea House is just as meat-centric as its Longwood counterpart. All-you-can-eat Korean barbecue is the clear choice for most patrons – given the quality of meat and the relatively low AYCE price, it’s easy to see why. Not up for barbecue? Stir-fries and soups, like mandu-guk with dumplings and rice cake in beef broth, will make happy fun dance in your tummy. 4501 Colonial Drive, 407-896-5994; $$
Two Chefs Seafood Oyster Bar Don’t let the casual decor fool you – there’s some worthy NOLA-inspired fare to be had here. The deep experience of the chefs clearly shows in plates of fried chicken, baked oysters and roasted duck hash. Do yourself a favor and order a side of stellar charred okra, then reward yourself with superlative endings of banana bread pudding and praline cheesecake. 743 N. Magnolia Ave., 407-270-4740; $$ n

OPENING IN orlando
OUR BRAND IS CRISIS By Ste v e S c h n e i de r
Opening this week Burnt American Sniper’s Bradley Cooper and Sienna Miller reunite to tell the otherwise dissimilar – or is it? – tale of a disgraced chef given a second chance at success and love. I say “or is it” because you’ve never seen sniping like that between rival restaurateurs. Remember when a certain Winter Park sushi establishment called code enforcement on one of its nearby competitors and managed to get the place shut down forever? Well, that’s just one of the dick moves Cooper’s character has on his own résumé in this new flick. And I’m supposed to care if he can get back in the culinary world’s good graces and convince Miller to polish his salad fork? I think not. Wake me when there’s a movie about Ronald McDonald, because that sucker kicked the Burger Chef’s ass fair and square. (R)
Only the lOnely Stylish Iranian vampire flick A Girl Walks Alone at Night follows its own formula By AShley Bel A n g er As a horror premise, the title of the 2014 Iranian vampire flick that raised hairs at Sundance, A Girl Walks Alone at Night (streaming now on Netflix), suggests a classic damsel-in-distress scenario – or at best, an M-like thrill as you expect the “girl” to be threatened, not threatening. Instead, the girl the viewer follows is self-possessed and shocking, starring an eye-drawing Sheila Vand as a wallflower vampire who stalks sinners to postpone fits of boredom in a town coyly dubbed “Bad City.” While it won’t startle you in your seat, it’s unsettling magic. Vand’s creepy mimicry of street characters (including a pushy beggar boy she horrifically puts in his place) pronounces fears that anyone who’s pounded foreign pavement on a dark night knows all too well. Most of the terror comes from her forceful intrusion into one’s personal space – following almost comically too closely, matching another person’s pace, etc., but one particular scene where the girl encounters a heroin addict from across the street and acts as his mirror bugs the eyes with masterful tension. There are splashes of gore and freakish pulse rushes when the fangs do come out, frequently and compulsively throughout the film. But underlying it all is this curious love story that mutely cautions what can happen when you don’t get close enough to someone, while simultaneously celebrating the mystique of loneliness-driven mutual attraction. Overall, it’s stylish and hip, from the Pulp Fiction-esque bedroom dance scenes drawing on underground sounds like the angsty blues rock of Iranian band Kiosk to skateboarding scenes over the spaghetti Western sounds of Portland, Oregon, band Federale. Like the girl slowly creeping on her prey, the powerful chill of this movie sneaks up on you. abelanger@orlandoweekly.com

Our Brand Is Crisis Into the year of Everest and The Walk comes yet another dramatic feature that picks the bones of a real-life story already covered in a high-profile documentary. Once again, we get to witness a canny political consultant from James Carville’s team convince the people of a South American country not to vote for a socialist candidate they’re stupid enough to think they prefer. (Boy, thank God nobody close to Carville could ever pull off that kind of stunt here.) If you’re wondering why you shouldn’t just rent the 2005 doc of the same name the next time you wanna Netflix and not chill, director David Gordon Green and co-producer George Clooney have an answer for you: Sandra Bullock. She always makes you sit up and take notice, right? I mean, she’s even gotten you engaged in subject matter you never could have imagined caring about, like space exploration and black teenagers. (R) Room This is really shaping up to be Involuntary Confinement Year at the Enzian. Earlier in 2015, Maitland’s favorite arthouse gave us The Wolfpack, about a bunch of kids who had never been let out of their downtown Manhattan apartment. Now we have Room, in which a mother fashions an entire reality for her 5-year-old within a cramped, windowless space they are forbidden to leave. Hey, sounds like a New York apartment to me! (R) Scout’s Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse Look, there’s no telling which portrayals will and won’t go down in zombie history. I mean, one of the name guests at this weekend’s Spooky Empire convention is the guy who played the Hare Krishna zombie in the original Dawn of the Dead! So when a movie like Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse comes out that features both zombie strippers and what BloodyDisgusting endearingly refers to as “a zombie granny gum[ming] some dude’s ass” … well, let’s just say I have at least a working idea of which autographs I’m going to be shelling out 50 bucks for a few decades from now.

MUSIC UPdaTeS FroM aroUnd Town ODESSOS ∙ THE FEST ∙ KICK BRIGHT SHOP & BUTTONS
likely the best reason to check out of Orlando during Halloween is for the Fest, Gainesville’s annual punk parade that spans the whole weekend (Oct. 30-Nov. 1) in the otherwise mostly deserted college town. This year’s enticements include festival-exclusive dates from rad acts like Broadcaster, Teenage Bottlerocket, Foxing, Tim Barry, Mewithoutyou, Young Widows and tons more. Then there are classic offerings like Lagwagon, Mean Jeans, War on Women, Mikey Erg, Prawn and the like creating a reliably furious party atmosphere. FYI: After their Fest date, lots of bands touch down in Orlando, so thank Fest for all the cool shows you can see here this week 46

(Desaparecidos, Lee Baines III & the Glory Holes, Mutts, etc.) without tripping up the Turnpike. Since 1996, kick Bright Zine (kick bright.net) has been tracking Orlando’s music scene, posting photos from the thick of it and highlighting with a warped pen the worthy bands existing and touring here. It’s helmed by Jeffrey Howard (of local garage noise-pop duo Hot Hands), who was essentially a loner in town looking for something to do and incidentally became one of Orlando’s most dogged documenters. (If you went to concerts between 19962012, his show reviews and photo galleries are worth revisiting for a sweet nostalgia trip.) Now, Kick Bright Zine evolves further into Kick Bright Shop & Buttons, a new vintage shop in Artegon Marketplace where Jeffrey and his wife (and Hot Hands bandmate) Kristin Howard peddle the treasures they’ve collected while touring the country and scraping Florida’s estate sales for weirdo items (like an especially scarring “Ronnie Bear” rubber-face Ronald Reagan teddy bear from 1981 I saw there on my last visit). Their collection includes vintage clothes and pop culture oddities, as well as original art – Jeffrey creates eye-catching collages cut from unusual old record covers, and both design the primarily retro-inspired 1-inch and 1-and-a-half-inch buttons, including Kristin’s most popular design, “Uncle Lou for Mayor of Orlando.” Head to orlandoweekly.com to read more about this rad addition to Artegon, which, like the shop’s vibe itself, takes something old and cool (right from our music scene!) and makes it new again. abelanger@orlandoweekly.com

The stars aligned this month when we were able to get local indie rockers Odessos into North Avenue Studios for a session just as they release their debut EP, Ursus Arctos Arctos. Now we’ve got fresh new videos to offer you a taste before the band heads to Will’s Pub for their EP release party (Nov. 8). The impassioned four-piece tugs on the melodic ear of singerguitarist Richard Simunac and the lyrical imagery of singer-guitarist Philip Temple, with their focused sound resting on the backbone created by heavy groovers Daniel Lunde (drums) and Brian Johnson (bass) to create energetic tunes that subtly pull from far-flung, curious influences like Snarky Puppy, Mae and the soundtrack to Spirited Away. The band started as a twopiece called White Chocolate in 2012, but evolved to the current lineup in 2014 when they took on the moniker Odessos. Head to orlandoweekly.com to see Odessos perform two songs live, “Move” and “Star Ride,” plus read a full profile of the band.

THE BEAT
It’s too early to be talking “post-prime” about respected indie-pop balladeer Matt Pond PA (Oct. 19, the Social). But his latest drift has been a major pivot, and it’s not necessarily a surefooted step. Pond’s melodicism has always been centrist. His last two albums (2015’s The State of Gold and 2013’s The Lives Inside the Lines in Your Hand), however, have taken a palpably commercial turn. Unfortunately, this slick direction often robs him of the heart that’s historically angled his tenderness in affecting ways. That should alarm longtime fans because heart is what his music’s always been about. Now, Pond’s balance is precarious. The guy already specializes in sentimental pop songs as it is, so buffing down his emotional grain too easily forces him onto generic adult-alternative ground. In concert, the contrast was even sharper when new songs were juxtaposed with vintage ones in a set list heavy on the classics. The guy’s a craftsman, and his body of work proves he’s got reliable songwriting
They dig deep into the roots of the wild American soul and pull up a fistful of live wires. aptitude. In what employ he decides to use it, well, that’s what’ll sum up everything in the end. New York opener Laura Stevenson, on the other hand, is an artist finally hitting real stride. Though pleasant, her musical footprint has been somewhat indistinct. But she’s got a new album, Cocksure, that’s about to drop Oct. 30 on Don Giovanni Records that will change that. Like a modern-day Tanya Donelly, Stevenson leaves the whimsical folk and pop detours behind on this ’90s-channeling record and really digs in with a direct indie-rock sound that’s muscular, melodic and classic. A mixture of sweetness, crooked charm and sharpening marksmanship, this simultaneously beaming and driving album is easily her most definitive work yet. Those assured songs have already galvanized her live presence in a marked way, leaving an impressed crowd hollering for more after the band left the stage. In case you didn’t pick up on the drug reference in their moniker, new Orlando act Timothy Eerie (Oct. 18, Will’s Pub) is a psychedelic band. And though they’re fun, this is the kind of garage psych that has a bit of an edge that can trip heavy or
rise up punk, all pretty convincingly. When a freshman band emerges from practically nowhere with this kind of skill, size and aesthetic, it’s sign of something potentially very special. From what I saw on stage, this is a local worth keeping an eye on. But the evening’s biggest attack was Oakland’s the Atom Age, a maximalist wrecking crew that piles sax and transistor organ onto the usual rock arsenal. As original rock & roll as they are modern punk, they dig deep into the roots of the wild American soul and pull up a fistful of live wires. Surging with the kind of ’60s abandon that forecasted punk, their sound is hot, raw and uncontained. And live, they’re total animals. Emily Kopp has been playing around Orlando for a few years now but has been easy to overlook. Although certainly competent, she’s one of those artists who is full of heart and earnestness but whose square pop-rock sensibility is so pedestrian as to be lost in the crowd. Early this year, however, I was given a sneak peek of her new, soon-to-bereleased EP, Making Sense Of. It’s not a huge sea change or epiphany, but it’s the work of a notably more confident artist who’s dialing it in with bigger, more crafted strokes. Though her latest show (Oct. 23, Backbooth) didn’t quite capture all that new promise on stage, hints of the improvements in taste, songwriting and presence were there. But she’s got that EP loaded and ready for release Dec. 4, so let’s see what her next steps bring. baolehuu@orlandoweekly.com ●

OUR PICKS FOR THE BEST EVENTS THIS WEEK
Wednesday, Oct. 28
Orlando Magic vs. Washington Wizards After the post-Dwight drought, fans are finally feeling refreshed and optimistic about the Orlando Magic this season. Since general manager Rob Hennigan has been molding this young pup team into true playoff contenders over the last two years, we’re curious to see how they hold up against playoff regulars the Washington Wizards. The overall success of the Magic hinges upon the off-season development of shooting guard Victor Oladipo and point guard Elfrid Payton, but we’re most looking forward to seeing how power forward Aaron Gordon has stepped up his game since his rookie season last year. Keep in mind the Wizards still have John Wall, who has helped their team develop one of the best backcourts in the NBA. It isn’t going to be easy for the Magic to pull a W on their opening night, but they’re going to be fun to watch regardless. You’ve got magic and wizards coming together for one special occasion. Sparks are bound to happen. – Marissa Mahoney

Family Fiesta
The Scottish electronic pop stars released their sophomore album, Every Open Eye, in September to desired effect. The lead singles – “Never Ending Circles” and “Leave a Trace” – have a shimmery pulse that charge through the futility of fighting against tired old relationship patterns. Their light upbeat sound paired with deep lyrical angst masterfully re-creates that desperate need to eradicate confusion with heady positivity. Get an earful of their latest live – their show has proven worth all the raving folks do about this jubilantly consistent act. – Ashley Belanger 7:30 p.m. | House of Blues, 1490 Buena Vista Drive, Lake Buena Vista | 407-934-2583 | hob.com/orlando | $27

East End Market is turning 2 today, and you can help this business celebrate its birthday by attending its Family Fiesta. The five-hour celebration is a day away from the Mexican holiday Día de los Muertos and on Halloween, though it’s early enough that you shouldn’t miss any quality trick-or-treating. The Market plans to have an artisan market in the courtyard where you can get your face painted, make a mask or create a flower crown. You can also listen to some Mexican rancheras and walk through a cemetery garden where you can try to find a dead person you can honor, as that’s what the Day of the Dead is actually about. – Monivette Cordeiro

Astro Wave: An Interactive Voyage
Art on the Green
Few musicians take a cover show as seriously as Gerald Perez. The main man behind Maximino and bass player for Thee Wilt Chamberlain made waves locally last year with tributes to Prince’s Purple Rain and the soundtrack to Pulp Fiction that went above and beyond what one normally sees at cover shows. This year, Perez and his crew of musicians, aided by Shine Shed and Broken Machine Films, create a sci-fi throwback to the dark side of New Wave. After turning the three rooms of Will’s Pub into a spaceship (the “USCSS Lucky Star”) and planetary outpost, the band will perform ’80s songs often overlooked in the erroneous version of that decade that pop culture has rewritten. (Sisters of Mercy over Bon Jovi, AS IT SHOULD BE.) There will be a costume contest in the middle of both shows, along with a surprise that Perez refuses to share with anyone. Pick up a special Leeloo Dallas multipass ticket at Park Ave. CDs, and customize it with your photo for a one-of-a-kind souvenir that’ll also nab you a free drink if you’re one of the first 20 to dock. – Thaddeus McCollum MUSIC

The 11 acres of Winter Park’s central green space are enriched with large-scale works by Lydia Azout, Maria Cristina Carbonell, Robert Chambers, Edouard Duval-Carrié, Emmett Moore, Cristina Lei Rodriguez and Frances Trombly, in an out-of-doors gallery curated by Suzanne Delehanty, founding director of the Pérez Art Museum Miami. All are worth a stroll-and-peruse, though we are especially looking forward to seeing Duval-Carrié’s “La Porte d’Haiti,” a multicolored fairytale pavilion, and Moore’s “Points of Pine,” which “stretches across the lawn like a giant blanket woven of wood.” – Jessica Bryce Young

Queering History: A Polylust History Lesson
Comedian Tom Segura stops into the Improv this week for a one-night stand. The everyman comedian’s first special, Completely Normal, debuted on Netflix last year and introduced the comedian’s deadpan humor and love of bad reality television to a wider audience. Segura hosts a podcast, “Your Mom’s House,” with his wife, fellow comedian Christina Pazsitzky, that’s been nominated for a Best Comedy Podcast award from Stitcher, and the juvenile sense of humor that both comedians share translates into some graphic – though oddly touching – bits in Segura’s repertoire about the perks of marriage. Catch him now before his next special, Mostly Stories, is released later this year. – TM
COMEDY
Was Abraham Lincoln gay? How high did Betsy Ross let her freak flag fly? Just how many licks did it take to get to the center of Percy Bysshe Shelley’s tootsie pop? The Polylust burlesque troupe is taking to the stage in its final two performances to help you answer some of history’s burning mysteries. These lovable ragamuffins have been blasting Orlando’s underground with their queer-and-body-positive shows for the past two years, but now, they’re turning into butterflies and scattering to the wind. This cabaretstyle farewell performance will feature eight striptease performances punctuated by bawdy theatrical skits starring the stodgy icons of yesteryear. So strap in, strap on (if that’s your thing), and get ready for a freaky-weird romp into the annals of history. – Bernard Wilchusky

The SST-launched band has been furiously experimenting for more than 30 years with immersive blends of punk, folk, psych and blues over a thrilling rock base that gives the listener a feast to chew on, kinda like that weird Willy Wonka three-course-dinner chewing gum. Developing their own guitar technique that is wild to observe live, Meat Puppets are still an awe-inspiring act, performing classics from their vast and critically acclaimed canon that includes near-perfect spins from the ’80s like Up on the Sun, Huevos and II, all of which monstrously overshadow modern releases that mostly cannot rival the band’s longstanding ingenuity. Get up close if your ears can take it; this one’s gonna get loud and weird, and it’s a bonus warp we get to see this show in a small club. – Ashley Belanger

ARIES (March 21-April 19) On a January morning in 1943, the town of Spearfish, South Dakota, experienced very weird weather. At 7:30 a.m. the temperature was minus 4 degrees Fahrenheit. In the next two minutes, due to an unusual type of wind sweeping down over nearby Lookout Mountain, thermometers shot up 49 degrees. Over the next hour and a half, the air grew even warmer. But by 9:30, the temperature had plummeted back to minus 4 degrees. I’m wondering if your moods might swing with this much bounce in the coming weeks. As long as you keep in mind that no single feeling is likely to last very long, it doesn’t have to be a problem. You may even find a way to enjoy the breathtaking ebbs and flows. Halloween costume suggestion: roller coaster rider, Jekyll and Hyde, warm clothes on one side of your body and shorts or bathing suit on the other. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) How dare you be so magnetic and tempting? What were you thinking when you turned up the intensity of your charm to such a high level? I suggest you consider exercising more caution about expressing your radiance. People may have other things to do besides daydreaming about you. But if you really can’t bring yourself to be a little less attractive – if you absolutely refuse to tone yourself down – please at least try to be extra kind and generous. Share your emotional wealth. Overflow with more than your usual allotments of blessings. Halloween costume suggestion: a shamanic Santa Claus; a witchy Easter Bunny. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) In the last 10 days of November and the month of December, I suspect there will be wild-card interludes when you can enjoy smart gambles, daring stunts, cute tricks and mythic escapades. But the next three weeks will not be like that. On the contrary. For the immediate future, I think you should be an upstanding citizen, a well-behaved helper and a dutiful truth-teller. Can you handle that? If so, I bet you will get sneak peaks of the fun and productive mischief that could be yours in the last six weeks of 2015. Halloween costume suggestion: the most normal person in the world. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Members of the gazelle species known as the springbok periodically engage in a behavior known as pronking. They leap into the air and propel themselves a great distance with all four feet off the ground, bounding around with abandon. What evolutionary purpose does this serve? Some scientists are puzzled, but not naturalist David Attenborough. In the documentary film Africa, he follows a springbok herd as it wanders through the desert for months, hoping to find a rare rainstorm. Finally it happens. As if in celebration, the springboks erupt with an outbreak of pronking. “They are dancing for joy,” Attenborough declares. Given the lucky breaks and creative breakthroughs coming your way, I foresee you doing something similar. Halloween costume suggestion: a pronking gazelle, a hippety-hopping bunny, a boisterous baby goat. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) “A very little key will open a very heavy door,” wrote Charles Dickens in his short story “Hunted Down.” Make that one of your guiding meditations in the coming days. In the back of your mind, keep visualizing the image of a little key opening a heavy door. Doing so will help ensure that you’ll be alert when clues about the real key’s location become available. You will have a keen intuitive sense of how you’ll need to respond if you want to procure it. Halloween costume suggestion: proud and protective possessor of a magic key. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) The ancient Hindu text known as the Kama Sutra gives extensive advice about many subjects, including
72
lulu Eig ht B a l l
love and sex. “Though a man loves a woman ever so much,” reads a passage in chapter four, “he never succeeds in winning her without a great deal of talking.” Take that as your cue. In the coming weeks, stir up the intimacy you want with a great deal of incisive talking that beguiles and entertains. Furthermore, use the same approach to round up any other experience you yearn for. The way you play with language will be crucial in your efforts to fulfill your wishes. Luckily, I expect your persuasive powers to be even greater than they usually are. Halloween costume suggestion: the ultimate salesperson. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) I encourage you to be super rhythmical and melodious in the coming days. Don’t just sing in the shower and in the car. Hum and warble and whistle while shopping for vegetables and washing the dishes and walking the dog. Allot yourself more than enough time to shimmy and cavort, not just on the dance floor but anywhere else you can get away with it. For extra credit, experiment with lyrical flourishes whenever you’re in bed doing the jizzle-skazzle. Halloween costume suggestion: wandering troubadour, street musician, freestyling rapper, operatic diva, medicine woman who heals with sound. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) I expect you to be in a state of continual birth for the next four weeks. Awakening and activation will come naturally. Your drive to blossom and create may be irresistible, bordering on unruly. Does that sound overwhelming? I don’t think it will be a problem as long as you cultivate a mood of amazed amusement about how strong it feels. To help maintain your poise, keep in mind that your growth spurt is a natural response to the dissolution that preceded it. Halloween costume suggestion: a fountain, an erupting volcano, the growing beanstalk from the “Jack and the Beanstalk” fairy tale. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) “Just as a snake sheds its skin, we must shed our past over and over again.” So says Buddhist teacher Jack Kornfield. Can you guess why I’m bringing it to your attention? It’s one of those times when you can do yourself a big favor by sloughing off the stale, worn-out, decaying parts of your past. Luckily for you, you now have an extraordinary talent for doing just that. I suspect you will also receive unexpected help and surprising grace as you proceed. Halloween costume suggestion: a snake molting its skin. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Speaking on behalf of your wild mind, I’m letting you know that you’re due for an immersion in revelry and festivity. Plugging away at business as usual could become counterproductive unless you take at least brief excursions to the frontiers of pleasure. High integrity may become sterile unless you expose it to an unpredictable adventure or two. Halloween costume suggestion: party animal, hell raiser, social butterfly, god or goddess of delight. Every one of us harbors a touch of crazy genius that periodically needs to be unleashed, and now is that time for you. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) I hope you will choose a Halloween costume that emboldens you to feel powerful. For the next three weeks, it’s in your long-term interest to invoke a visceral sense of potency, dominion and sovereignty. What clothes and trappings might stimulate these qualities in you? Those of a king or queen? A rock star or CEO? A fairy godmother, superhero or dragon-tamer? Only you know which archetypal persona will help stir up your untapped reserves of confidence and command. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) It’s time to stretch the boundaries. You have license to expand the containers and outgrow the expectations and wage rebellion for the sheer fun of it. The frontiers are calling you. Your enmeshment in small talk and your attachment to trivial wishes are hereby suspended. Your mind yearns to be blown and blown and blown again! I dare you to wander outside your overly safe haven and go in quest of provocative curiosities. Halloween costume suggestions: mad scientist, wild-eyed revolutionary, the Doctor from Doctor Who.

By EMily FlaKE
B Y D A N S AVA G E I am a straight, married, 38-year-old woman. My husband and I have two children. I have been with my husband for 12 years, married for six. Three years after we were married, we found out that he was HIV positive. We had both had multiple tests throughout our relationship because of physicals and the process we went through to get pregnant. Both of us were negative then, but only I am now. Needless to say, he was infected as a result of him cheating. We worked through that and remained married. Recently I saw a message from a woman saying, “Call me or I am calling your wife.” I identified myself, and she and I spoke briefly. I asked her how long they were having a relationship, and she told me since January. I did not mention his status. I confronted him, and he claims she is a crazy stalker. He says there was a brief flirtation but then she became clingy and “crazy,” and he did not know how to tell me without compromising our relationship. He blocked her calls and emails. He is undetectable, and we use condoms. In the state where we live, a positive person who does not inform a person of their status before having sex faces up to five years in prison. I have brought this to his attention. He is sticking to his story that he did not have sex with her. We met with a therapist last week, only for a placement consultation. We did not mention his status. This is my biggest issue: I don’t think we can work through our problems without honesty. I need him to come clean and admit to me – and our therapist – that he had sex with this woman. If he does, I believe the therapist will be legally obligated to report his behavior to the police. I am preparing myself for divorce, something he doesn’t know, and while I don’t want to have him arrested, I feel we need the therapy in order to respectfully co-parent – and lying to a therapist or omitting the full truth seems crazy. Seeking Truth About This Unpleasant Situation
“Where to start?” asked Peter Staley, the legendary AIDS activist, founding director of the Treatment Action Group, and longtime board member of the American Foundation for AIDS Research. “I’ll leave the relationship issues to you, Dan, but isn’t the level of distrust here the most toxic part of the story?” The level of distrust does strike me as toxic – but seeing as your husband cheated, STATUS, and not for the first time, your distrust is understandable. What I don’t understand is your desire to see your husband sent to prison. You don’t want honesty, you don’t want to “work through your problems,” you just want your soon-to-be exhusband to rot in jail. Since you don’t want to call the police yourself, you want to con your husband (with my help!) into telling “the full truth” to a therapist who will have to call the police. And the instrument of your revenge – laws that require HIV-positive people to disclose to their sex partners – is unjust. “I stand with every public-health organization, including UNAIDS and the World Health Organization, in abhorring HIV criminalization laws like the one STATUS cites,” said Staley. “We already have laws on the books that can adequately deal with someone who knowingly and intentionally transmits HIV to someone else. Adding additional laws around HIV disclosure, especially when no
transmission occurs, ends up causing more harm than good.” That’s exactly what you sound like: a jilted partner who hopes to use an unjust law to lash out at her soon-to-be ex-husband. While you have cause to be angry, you can’t rationalize your plot based on the “danger” your husband presented to the other woman. He is taking his meds and has an undetectable viral load. That means he’s effectively noninfectious. So even if he didn’t use condoms with this woman – and you don’t even know for sure if he was fucking her – he didn’t put her at risk. “There’s a great organization called SERO (sero project.com) fighting these laws,” said Staley. “Their website is filled with frightening cases of people with HIV rotting in jail for supposed nondisclosure, even when no transmission occurred. There are no similar convictions for nondisclosure of hepatitis C, HPV, syphilis, herpes, etc., some of which can kill. People with HIV are being singled out by legislatures trying to ‘protect’ the public from ‘AIDS monsters’ created by local TV stations looking for ratings.” Follow Peter Staley on Twitter @peterstaley and on Facebook at facebook.com/ peterstaley. My boyfriend of two years and I broke up because I found out that he was having sex with anonymous men he contacted through Craigslist. My ex will not admit to being bisexual and claims he has these urges only when he smokes marijuana. But through our computer history, I caught him watching gay porn at times when I knew he had not smoked marijuana. I check CL periodically, and he is still posting ads regularly, even though he denies this and insists that he has the situation under control. Disturbingly, he is also dating women. I think this is dangerous because there is such a strong chance that he will give these women an STD, such as AIDS, and destroy both of their lives. Since I am the only person in his life who knows his secret, I feel some sort of responsibility. I am very emotionally troubled by this knowledge and I don’t feel right about ignoring this. Anxiety Infuses Distressing Situation
Your ex is obviously bisexual. If not, then his heteroflexibility is downright acrobatic. But policing your ex’s sexual identity, his love life and his Craigslist presence is Not Your Job. Knocking dicks out of his mouth is not your responsibility, and you are not responsible for alerting other women to the porn, the personal ads, the dicks and the laughable excuses. You could, however, speak to your ex as a friend – a creepy friend who cyberstalks him, but still a friend. You could urge him to accept that, even if he isn’t bi, he needs to own up to not being entirely straight, either. If he’s going to engage in risky sex practices with men, he should talk to his doctor about getting on PrEP, aka pre-exposure prophylaxis, aka Truvada. Then, having said your piece, you can butt the fuck out his life with a clear conscience.
