Go-Go isn’t going anywhere THE DISTRICT A District electronics shop known for its booming go-go beats turned the music back on Wednesday after days of outrage from residents and elected officials over the sudden silence. T-Mobile chief executive John Legere said in a tweet Wednesday that “the music should NOT stop in D.C.!” With that social media post, the company reversed an earlier decision urging Central Communications, a Metro PCS vendor on the corner of Seventh Street and Florida Avenue NW, to tone down the music in response to a complaint from a resident at nearby luxury apartment complex The Shay. T-Mobile and Metro PCS are “proud to be part of the Shaw community — the music will go on and our dealer will work with the neighbors to compromise volume,” Legere wrote. The go-go was going again within the hour. Droves of cars honked their support as D.C. residents gathered to dance. But the happy ending is only

They said those same officials have supported policies that disenfranchise the communities in which go-go was born. Go-go music was born in the District in the 1970s and became known as the pulse of D.C. But in recent years, the genre has struggled as the city has changed. But over the past two days, gogo, it seemed, was everywhere. Sympathetic businesses, including Compass Coffee, pumped the percussive funk through store speakers as a sign of solidarity. A go-go concert on the corner of 14th and U streets NW late Wednesday had attendees dancing in the street.

Murder trial begins in Md. bunker fire case A prosecutor says a wealthy stock trader sacrificed safety for secrecy before a fire killed a man who was helping him dig tunnels for a nuclear bunker beneath his Bethesda home. But a defense attorney for Daniel Beckwitt, 27, told jurors Wednesday that the deadly fire that killed Beckwitt’s friend was an accident, not a crime.

Md.’s progressive wave of lawmakers has few victories but moves forward on goals

Kipke, R-Anne Arundel, said of the growing liberal flank, which is most pronounced in the 141-member House of Delegates. The unexpected death this week of Michael E. Busch, the longestserving speaker of Maryland’s House, will hasten the ascension of a new generation of leaders in his chamber. Meanwhile, longtime Senate President Thomas V. Mike Miller Jr., a centrist, is battling Stage 4 prostate cancer and says he will gauge his health before deciding his political future. Potential successors will need to court liberal support. This year, the General Assembly passed a $15 minimum wage; the country’s first statewide ban on Styrofoam containers; and a requirement that half of the state’s electricity must come from renewable sources by 2030. But the moderate — and more seasoned — Democrats who have long controlled both chambers took a cautious approach, insisting the $15 minimum wage take effect starting in 2025.

ANNAPOLIS Maryland voters elected a wave of younger, more liberal lawmakers to the state legislature last fall for the second time in five years, building a force theoretically poised to reshape the politics of the General Assembly. So far, however, the Democratic Party’s liberal wing has had limited success. Many of the marquee wins heralded during the legislative session that concluded Monday were watered down by moderates, or will be implemented over a lengthy timeline. Other goals failed completely. Still, the flood of new lawmakers — who arrived at the cusp of leadership change in Annapolis — managed to tug the legislature slightly to the left, laying groundwork for landmark legislation that could legalize marijuana and change access to health care by the end of their four-year terms. “The committee system and the leadership system has kept them tamped down,” House Minority Leader Nicholaus R.

Maryland voters elected a wave of more liberal lawmakers last year, but so far, most of their progressive legislation has been watered down.

Gun laws stymied Two gun control measures are among the bills that received considerable notice but failed to pass the Maryland General Assembly. One measure would have required background checks any time someone buys a rifle or shotgun. A bill to ban 3D-printed gun blueprints and “ghost guns” also failed. (AP)

more liberal, Kipke said, he has started viewing more moderate colleagues in a new light. “There used to be guys I’d say, ‘Gosh, you’re so liberal, and I can’t work with you,’ ” Kipke said. “Now I think, ‘Gosh, you’re so

normal. I’m so glad you’re here.’ ” This year, for the first time, he recalled, “someone said, ‘As a socialist’ on the [House] floor.” That was Del. Gabriel Acevero, D-Montgomery, one of two freshmen who consider themselves “democratic socialists.” Acevero was among those who pushed for implementing the $15 minimum wage more quickly and indexing it to inflation. But he noted that as recently as two years ago, Democratic state lawmakers were advancing proposals that explicitly prohibit local jurisdictions from adopting a $15 wage. “I consider it progress,” he said. “It’s not the pace we want.” ERIN COX (THE WASHINGTON POST)

National Enquirer set to be sold, sources say

verbatim

MEDIA American Media Inc. is actively seeking to sell off the National Enquirer, according to three people familiar with the process who spoke on condition of anonymity. The decision to sell came after the hedge fund manager whose firm controls American Media became “disgusted” with the Enquirer’s reporting tactics, according to one of these people. American Media (AMI) has been under intense pressure because of the Enquirer’s efforts to tilt the 2016 election in favor of President Trump, a longtime friend of American Media’s president and CEO, David Pecker. Pecker and his tabloid have also been embroiled in recent months in a public feud with Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, who also owns The Washington Post and Express. In January, Pecker and the Enquirer devoted 12 pages of the Jan. 28 edition to an exposé of Bezos’ affair with Lauren Sanchez. Bezos later accused AMI of trying to blackmail him by threatening to publish explicit photos if he didn’t state that he had no basis for suggesting the Enquirer’s exposé was politically motivated. The Bezos story helped seal the Enquirer’s fate, said one person briefed on the matter. The National Enquirer has

long provided fervently positive coverage of Trump. But its coverage of him during the 2016 Pecker election put it on much higher-profile footing and landed it in legal jeopardy. Last year, AMI acknowledged paying $150,000 to former Playboy model Karen McDougal, who alleged an affair with Trump, to prevent her allegation “from influencing the election.” In August, as AMI and two of its top officers were finalizing a non-prosecution agreement with federal investigators, the company’s board of directors started looking for ways to unload the tabloid business. The company was also facing financial difficulties as it sought to refinance more than $400 million in debt earlier

this year and as the Enquirer’s circulation continued to decline. American Media repeatedly found itself “on the brink,” Pecker told the Toronto Star in 2016. Pecker managed its financial straits by broadening its portfolio in recent years. He has also relied on the support of Anthony Melchiorre, who controls the $4 billion hedge fund Chatham Asset Management, which holds an 80 percent stake in AMI. The decision to sell the tabloid resulted in part from pressure applied by Melchiorre, two sources said. He was motivated partly by the financial difficulties of the business, but also by his distaste for the Enquirer’s tactics. “The Trump thing was an issue, and [Melchiorre] was really disgusted by the Bezos reporting,” the person said.

Barr suggests Trump team was spied on WASHINGTON Attorney General William Barr declared Wednesday he thinks “spying did occur” on President Trump’s campaign, suggesting the origins of the Russia investigation may have been mishandled and aligning himself with the president at a time when Barr’s independence is under scrutiny. Barr, appearing before a Senate panel, did not say what “spying” had taken place but seemed likely to be alluding to a surveillance warrant the FBI obtained on a Trump associate. He later said he wasn’t sure there had been improper surveillance but wanted to make sure proper procedures were followed. House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., tweeted that Barr’s comments “directly contradict” what the Justice Department previously said, and said he had requested a briefing from the department. Barr was asked about spying by Sen. Jerry Moran, R-Kan. He said that though he did not have specific evidence of wrongdoing, “I do have questions about it.” Barr said he was reviewing his department’s actions in investigating Trump. Asked again about spying at the end of the hearing, Barr tempered his tone. “I am not saying improper surveillance occurred. I am saying I am concerned about it, and I am looking into it,” he said.

Britain’s May sought an extension during emergency summit BRUSSELS European Union leaders early Thursday offered Britain a delay to its EU departure date until Halloween. Leaders of the 27 remaining EU member states met for more than six hours before agreeing to postpone Brexit until Oct. 31, two officials said. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the closed-door negotiations. European Council President Donald Tusk confirmed in a tweet that an extension had been agreed to, but he did not disclose the date. May, who had sought a delay only until June 30, still has to agree to the offer. On Wednesday, May pleaded with them at an emergency

summit to delay Britain’s exit, due on Friday, until June 30 while the U.K. sorts out the mess that Brexit has become. May spoke to the 27 EU leaders for just over an hour, before they met for dinner without her to decide Britain’s fate. Earlier, May signaled she would accept a longer extension, as long as it contained a get-outearly clause should Britain end its Brexit impasse. Many leaders said they were inclined to grant a Brexit delay, though French President Emmanuel Macron had reservations after hearing May speak. An official in the French president’s office said the British leader hadn’t offered “sufficient guarantees” to justify a long extension. Macron is concerned that letting Britain stay too long would distract from next month’s European Parliament elections. JILL LAWLESS AND RAF CASERT (AP)

Lapid, the party’s No. 2 leader, said Blue and White would “show the people of Israel what a real alternative looks like.” “We did not win in this round. I respect the voters, and I respect their decision, but I look around and see the ultimate tool for victory in the next round,” Lapid said at a news conference alongside Gantz.

Survivors and family members of the slain victims of the school shooting in Parkland, Fla., sued the school board, sheriff’s office and others for negligence Wednesday, saying the agencies initially had promised a financial settlement but secretly worked behind the scenes to prevent a deal.

Retired Lt. Col. Richard “Dick” Cole, the last of the 80 Doolittle Tokyo Raiders who carried out a daring U.S. attack on Japan during World War II, died Tuesday at a military hospital in San Antonio, Texas, at age 103. Cole was mission commander Jimmy Doolittle’s co-pilot in the first U.S. air raid on the Japanese homeland on April 18, 1942, less than five months after the December 1941 Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor. (AP)

The outcome affirmed Israel’s continued tilt to the right and further dimmed hopes of a negotiated solution to the IsraeliPalestinian conflict. It also will give Netanyahu an important boost as he braces for the possibility of criminal charges in a series of corruption scandals. President Trump called Netanyahu to congratulate him, saying that with the victory, “I think we’ll see some pretty good action in terms of peace.”

With his victory, Netanyahu, 69, will capture a fourth consecutive term and fifth overall, which this summer will make him Israel’s longest-ever serving leader, surpassing founding father David Ben-Gurion. “It’s a night of tremendous victory,” Netanyahu told supporters early Wednesday, adding that he had already begun talking to fellow right-wing and religious parties about forming a coalition.

NICK TOMECEK (NORTHWEST FLORIDA DAILY NEWS VIA AP)

JERUSALEM Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s main rival conceded defeat Wednesday, promising to wage a robust battle from the opposition after the ruling Likud party and its nationalist allies won a solid majority in parliamentary elections. Netanyahu appeared poised for a historic fifth term as prime minister with nearly all the ballots counted from Tuesday’s vote. Official final results were expected today. With 97.4 percent of the vote counted, Netanyahu’s Likud and the rival Blue and White were deadlocked with a projected 35 seats apiece in the 120-seat parliament. But Likud and its traditional political allies were in command of a 65-55 majority in the Knesset, Israel’s parliament. A couple of small parties were still teetering on the electoral threshold and fighting for survival, so the final makeup of the next parliament could still change slightly.

BUSINESS A Boeing shareholder has filed a class-action lawsuit accusing the company of covering up safety problems with its 737 Max, the jet at the center of two crashes that killed 346 people. In court documents filed Tuesday, Richard Seeks claims the plane maker “effectively put profitability and growth ahead of airplane safety and honesty.” The suit said investors suffered economic losses because of Boeing’s omissions and is seeking damages for alleged securities fraud violations. The company has lost about $30 billion, or 12.7 percent of its market value, since an Ethiopian Airlines jet crashed shortly after takeoff on March 10, killing all 157 on board. The crash was the second in five months involving the same Boeing model. On Oct. 29, Lion Air Flight 610 went down off Indonesia, killing all 189 passengers and crew members. Investigators have zeroed in on a new automated anti-stall system known as MCAS as the possible cause of both incidents. The lawsuit is one in a growing list of challenges for the Chicagobased company. Several lawsuits have been brought by victims’ families that allege that the company did not inform pilots about the dangers of MCAS. Seeks, of LaCrosse, Wis., said in the suit that he bought 300 Boeing shares in early March and sold them weeks later at a more than $14,000 loss. HAMZA SHABAN (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Seeing the ‘unseeable’ Astronomers have, for the first time ever, captured a direct image of a black hole

Old bones may be from a new human relative EVENT HORIZON TELESCOPE COLLABORATION (MAUNAKEA OBSERVATORIES VIA AP)

SPACE Scientists on Wednesday released the first direct image ever made of a black hole, revealing a fiery ring of gravity-twisted light swirling around the edge of the abyss. The picture, assembled from data gathered by eight radio telescopes around the world, shows the hot, shadowy lip of a supermassive black hole, one of the light-sucking monsters of the universe theorized by Albert Einstein more than a century ago and confirmed by observations for decades. It is along this edge that light bends around itself in a cosmic funhouse effect. “ We have seen what we thought was unseeable. We have seen and taken a picture of a black hole,” Sheperd Doeleman of Harvard University, leader of a team of about 200 scientists from 20 countries, announced as the colorized orange-and-black picture was unveiled. University of Waterloo physicist Avery Broderick, a codiscoverer, declared: “Science fiction has become science fact.” In fact, Jessica Dempsey, a codiscoverer and deputy director of the East Asian Observatory in Hawaii, said the fiery circle reminded her of the Eye of Sauron from the “Lord of the Rings.” Unlike smaller black holes that come from collapsed stars, supermassive black holes are mysterious in origin. Situated at the center of most galaxies, including ours, they are so dense that nothing, not even light, can escape their gravitational pull. This one’s “event horizon” — the precipice, or point of no return, where light and matter begin to fall inexorably into the hole — is as big as our entire solar system. Three years ago, scientists using an extraordinarily sensitive

of “gravity run amok.” While much of the matter around a black hole gets sucked into the vortex, never to be seen again, the new picture captures gas and dust that are lucky to be circling just far enough to be safe and to be seen millions of years later on Earth. The telescope data was gathered two years ago over four days when the weather had to be just right all around the world. Completing the image was an enormous undertaking, involving an international team of scientists, supercomputers and hundreds of terabytes of data. When scientists initially put all that data into the first picture, what they saw looked so much like what they expected that they didn’t believe it at first. “We’ve been hunting this for a long time,” Dempsey said. “We’ve been getting closer and closer with better technology.”

SCIENCE Fossil bones and teeth found in the Philippines have revealed a long-lost cousin of modern people, which evidently lived around the time our own species was spreading from Africa to occupy the rest of the world. It’s yet another reminder that, although Homo sapiens is now the only surviving member of our branch of the evolutionary tree, we’ve had company for most of our existence. It makes our understanding of human evolution in Asia “messier, more complicated and whole lot more interesting,” said one expert, Matthew Tocheri of Lakehead University in Thunder Bay, Ontario. In a study published Wednesday in the journal Nature, scientists describe a cache of seven teeth and six bones from at least three individuals. They were recovered from Callao Cave on the island of Luzon in the northern Philippines in 2007, 2011 and 2015. Tests on two samples show minimum ages of 50,000 years and 67,000 years. The main exodus of our own species from Africa that all of today’s non-African people are descended from took place around 60,000 years ago. Scientists dubbed the creature Homo luzonensis. It apparently used stone tools and its small teeth suggest it might have been rather small-bodied, said Florent Detroit, one of the study’s authors. MALCOLM RITTER

observing system heard the sound of two much smaller black holes merging to create a gravitational wave, as Einstein predicted. The new image, published in the Astrophysical Journal Letters and announced around the world, adds light to that sound. The image helps confirm Einstein’s general theory of relativity. Einstein a century ago even predicted the symmetrical shape that scientists just found. The picture was made with equipment that detects wavelengths that can’t be seen by the human eye, so astronomers added color to convey the ferocious heat of the gas and dust, glowing at a temperature of perhaps millions of degrees. But if a person were to somehow get close to this black hole, it might not look quite like that, astronomers said. The black hole is about 6 billion times the mass of our sun and

Black hole history The foundations for this discovery were laid more than 100 years ago, when Albert Einstein published the equations that defined modern gravitational physics. General relativity, first described in 1915, explained gravity as a phenomenon created when matter warps the geometry of space and time. In turn, curved “space-time” tells matter how to move. A few months later, German physicist Karl Schwarzschild calculated that if an object is dense enough, it will create what we now call a black hole. (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Beal reaches a milestone for Wizards

Best Masters finish: Second (2018)

Best 2019 finish: First (Waste Management Phoenix Open)

Best 2019 finish: First (Players Championship)

Best 2019 finish: Tied for second (Honda Classic)

Why he can win: It’s been eight years since McIlroy’s infamous collapse at Augusta in which he led after 18, 36 and 54 holes, only to shoot a closing 80. A year ago, he was in the Sunday final-pairing with Patrick Reed and shot a 74 to finish tied for fifth. Still, two elements override those two Augusta scars: McIlroy’s talent which remains immense, and his recent form. McIlroy has entered six stroke-play events worldwide in 2019. His worst finish: tied for sixth.

Why he can win: Koepka has won three of the past seven majors but has an undistinguished record at Augusta National: three appearances, no top-10 finishes, just one round under 70. And he missed last year’s Masters with a wrist injury. But his powerful game is a fit here. In his three appearances, he has established that he owns the par 5s — 24 under, as opposed to 28 over on all other holes. That ability to score is essential to building a résumé capable of winning the Masters.

Why he can win: It’s hard to believe Fowler is now 30 — and still hasn’t won a major. Last year, when the final round looked to be a duel between Patrick Reed and Rory McIlroy, Fowler inserted himself with a 67 that included a birdie on the last hole, which put pressure on Reed. He has a win this season in Phoenix as well as a tie for second at the Honda Classic. He contends he’s far more prepared than ever to take the next step. All that’s left is to do it.

Best Masters finish: Second (2017); tied for second (2015)

Best Masters finish: First (1997, 2001, 2002, 2005)

Best 2019 finish: First (Farmers Insurance Open)

Best 2019 finish: Tied for fifth (Dell Technologies Match Play)

Why he can win: Maybe the most surprising aspect of Rose’s career is he’s won just one major — the 2013 U.S. Open. He’s not of an age where he’s fading from prominence; his spot atop the world rankings is an indication of that. But at 38, his time is now. Rose’s best opportunity at Augusta came two years ago, when he lost in a playoff to Sergio Garcia. His recent play here, though, has been stellar: Nine of his last 12 Masters rounds have been under par.

Why he can win: Woods is playing the Masters in back-to-back years for the first time since 2012-13. Though he hasn’t finished better than tied for 10th in four stroke-play events in 2019, he’s fourth on the PGA Tour in greensin-regulation. A year ago, Woods closed with a 69 at Augusta, the most recent of his 23 sub-70 Masters rounds. If he putts well, he’ll put himself in position to win. BARRY SVRLUGA

In his 82nd game of the season, Wizards All-Star guard Bradley Beal played only 17 minutes. But he still amassed 16 points, four assists and, most significantly, five rebounds. Beal needed four boards in Washington’s final game to cement season averages of at least 25 points, five assists and five rebounds. “I feel like my teammates were trying to get me to be thirsty for rebounds all night,” Beal said. He became the first player to average 25-5-5 in franchise history and only the sixth NBA player since the 2010-11 season to achieve those averages, joining superstars such as Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Kevin Durant and James Harden. His final averages: 25.7 points, 5.5 assists and 5.0 rebounds. (TWP)

stanley cup playoffs NO SLOWING DOWN

Alex Ovechkin, left, and the Caps open the playoffs at home tonight against the Hurricanes.

PATRICK SMITH (GETTY IMAGES)

Even at 33, Ovi is still a model of consistency

Caps just fine with a target on their back ‘Battle-tested group’ leans on experience from last year as it begins its title defense NHL Every offseason, general managers who sign or acquire a Stanley Cup champion boast about adding a winner to their lineup. A championship pedigree is a valuable thing. Capitals general manager Brian MacLellan said as much when he signed three-time Cup champion Justin Williams in 2015. He said the same after signing two-time Cup champ Mike Richards in 2016. Former Caps coach Barry Trotz used to say that champions brought “street credibility” into the room. If that’s the case, consider the current Capitals a credible bunch. They don’t have to shop for winners anymore. “We have a team full of them,” MacLellan said this week as the Capitals prepared to defend their title in earnest with the start of the 2019 postseason. The Capitals host the upstart Carolina

Hurricanes in Game 1 of their first-round series tonight. “We’re more prepared mentally and emotionally to handle stuff than we’ve ever been,” MacLellan said. “Having success in those critical moments, I think, gives everybody a little confidence that they can handle it.” As much as the Capitals want to focus on what’s ahead, there’s no denying they can look back to last year’s run as both fuel to do it again and a reminder of what it takes. “How could you ever go back to losing in the second round after that?” T.J. Oshie recently asked. “There was a lot of pain, a lot of sacrifices, a lot of guys putting their body in front of some pretty heavy shots or taking hits to make plays to get that end result — that joy for the rest of the summer. We’ve got to remember what it took in the first place.” In the days leading up to their

NHL sets league record with 7,664 goals scored in the regular season

first-round series, the Capitals were asked plenty about being the hunted as opposed to the hunters. It’s a role reversal for these Capitals who finally replaced the proverbial monkey on their back with a target. But the defending champs are embracing it. There’s a healthy swagger and a quiet confidence as they look to replicate last year’s success. “That experience is something no one can take from us,” said coach Todd Reirden. En route to their Cup triumph last June, the Capitals overcame a series deficit in all four rounds. They also fought the injury bug, won an NHL-record 10 postseason road games, and twice avoided elimination. “It’s a very battle-tested group,” center Lars Eller said. “We’re likely going to face some serious adversity in the playoffs, but knowing we could fight through that adversity like we did last year, it gives you a deeper confidence.” Trade deadline acquisition Carl Hagelin won back-to-back titles with Pittsburgh in 2016 and 2017 and says the Capitals can take advantage of their status against the inexperienced Hurricanes. “You’ve got to use that swagger to win games,” he said. “Yes, you have a target, but on the other hand, if you handle that the right way, and you set the tone or respond after a setback, it can create doubt in the opposition. It reminds them, ‘Oh, these are the champs.’ ”

While the Capitals are seeking a second straight title, the Hurricanes are back in the playoffs for first time since 2009. With the exception of Williams, now the Hurricanes’ captain, much of Carolina’s core is getting their first taste of playoff hockey. The six defensemen the Hurricanes are expected to dress for Game 1 have 38 games combined of playoff experience. The Capitals have three defensemen with at least 100 games each — Brooks Orpik (149), Matt Niskanen (118) and John Carlson (100). Twelve Hurricanes are expected to make their playoff debuts in this series. “Sometimes until you actually taste the result, you don’t know whether it’s worth it or not,” Reirden said. “That’s the opportunity we were able to gain last year — knowing now how great it does taste and that should drive us through difficult times this year.” BEN RABY (FOR EXPRESS)

On the first day of training camp, Alex Ovechkin’s teammates said their captain looked lighter. While it may have had to do with the metaphoric monkey lifted off his back after last year’s Stanley Cup win, it was apparent throughout the regular season that Ovechkin, 33, wasn’t ready to start slowing down. He finished the year with 51 goals to secure his NHL-record eighth career goal-scoring title. Along the way, he averaged 20:55 minutes of ice time per game, his highest since 2010-11. “There were less dips or periods where he didn’t play at the highest level,” said GM Brian MacLellan. “It’s been a consistent high-level year.” Coach Todd Reirden expects more of the same in the playoffs. “He liked what he tasted last year,” Reirden said, “and he wants to get back.” BEN RABY (FOR EXPRESS)

stanley cup playoffs ANALYSIS

Opening-round storylines

Here are the five biggest questions entering the Capitals’ series against the Hurricanes

AP AND GETTY IMAGES

Caps’ Wilson keeps playing ‘on the edge’

Which Kuznetsov will show up?

How will Caps’ D fare without Kempny?

Can Carolina keep up second-half surge?

Can Washington slow down Aho?

Who will be Caps’ secondary scorers?

Evgeny Kuznetsov was at his best last spring while leading the league in postseason scoring with 32 points in 24 games. But that was followed by an inconsistent regular season. At one point, Kuznetsov went 22 consecutive games without scoring at five-on-five. He also took the most minor penalties among Capitals forwards and ranked last among qualifying NHL centers in faceoff success rate. Through it all, Kuznetsov preached patience. He’d be at his best come springtime, he said. The Capitals can’t afford for him not to be. “He’s an important part of our team,” said GM Brian MacLellan. “We expect him to play like he did last year.”

Among the biggest questions surrounding the Capitals is how they will fill the void left by defenseman Michal Kempny, who is lost for the season with a torn hamstring that he suffered March 20. The timing of the injury left little opportunity to adjust down the stretch and the blueline remains a fluid situation. Nick Jensen is expected to take Kempny’s spot alongside John Carlson on the No. 1 pair but that leaves the Capitals with two righties in that tandem. Carlson is set to play his offside on the left, but don’t be surprised to see veteran Brooks Orpik, 38, leaned on heavily in late-game situations.

Thanks to an edge in experience, depth and goaltending — among other areas — the Capitals are heavily favored on paper to beat the Hurricanes in Round 1. Still, Washington knows better than to take Carolina lightly. Coach Rod Brind’Amour and Carolina used an incredible secondhalf surge to secure its first playoff berth in 10 years, and the Hurricanes have been playing desperate, playoff-style hockey for a few months. The Hurricanes were 10 points out of a playoff spot when they woke up on New Year’s Eve, but they enter the playoffs on a 31-12-2 run since Dec. 31 — the third-best record over that stretch.

The Hurricanes are loaded with young talent, including noted Capitals killer Sebastian Aho. In 12 career games against Washington, Aho, 21, has eight goals and 17 points. For the season, Carolina’s No. 1 center had a team-best 30 goals and 83 points. The task of limiting Aho and Carolina’s top trio will likely fall on Washington’s second line of Carl Hagelin, Kuznetsov and T.J. Oshie. Coach Todd Reirden deployed that line in that role in a homeand-home series sweep of Carolina in late March. Aho was limited to one assist in the two games. “It’s a tough task,” Oshie said. “We’ll take pride in trying to shut them down and almost have a little bit of a series within the series.”

The Capitals had a league-high seven 20-goal scorers this season and that scoring depth bodes well for a deep playoff run. While teams lean on their top players in the postseason, the value of contributions down the depth chart can’t be overstated. Lars Eller and Devante Smith-Pelly were among the unsung heroes last spring, and Washington will look for similar from the bottom six this year. Eller is expected to be joined by 20-goal scorers Jakub Vrana and Brett Connolly on an offensively potent third line, while Andre Burakovsky gives the Capitals a potential gamebreaker on their fourth line.

PLAYOFF STOPPER

The goals against average for Capitals goalie Braden Holtby in 82 career postseason games. According to Caps Today, only three goaltenders who have played in at least 80 playoff games have a better goals against average than Holby’s (Turk Broda, Dominik Hasek and Martin Brodeur). Holtby enters the playoffs hot and will face a team he’s dominated in the past. He is 10-3-1 with a 2.21 goals against average since the start of March, and in 22 career games against Carolina, he’s 16-6 with a 1.98 goals against average. (EXPRESS)

NHL Tom Wilson, who’s been suspended four times over the past 19 months, might be the most hated player in the league. “I think a lot of guys maybe have lost some respect for him,” said Blues forward Zach Sanford, who broke into the league with Wilson and the Capitals. “He’s had quite a few cheap hits the past couple years. But that’s just how he plays. He’s on the edge. Sometimes he crosses it.” The Capitals winger missed the first 16 games of the season for a suspension, but he’s avoided trouble since and set career highs with 22 goals and 40 points in 63 games. “I think he is a really good player,” said Vegas forward Ryan Reaves, who gave Wilson a concussion of his own in December and later apologized for the hit. “I think if he played a little smarter, he’d be even better.” Wilson spent time with vice president of player safety and former enforcer George Parros going over video clips and what the league deems acceptable. This season he has been thinking more about each hit he delivers because the next one that crosses the line could cost him more than a couple of months. “Hockey’s an extremely fast game, and it’s a hard-hitting game,” Wilson said. “I’ve just got to do the best I can to control the situation and control the outcome, and that’s just something that I’ve kind of tried to focus on.” STEPHEN WHYNO (AP)

Vegas makes Lightning (9/5) heavy favorite to win the Stanley Cup, followed by the Bruins (10/1), Flames (10/1), Predators (12/1), Sharks (12/1), Knights (12/1) and Capitals (12/1)

After fleeing civil unrest in their hometown of Tbilisi, Georgia, Paata and Irina Tsikurishvili came to D.C. and formed Synetic Theater, a physical-theater troupe that draws on Paata’s training as an actor and Irina’s background in ballet. In 2002, Synetic staged its first production, a wordless version of one of Shakespeare’s greatest works. “Hamlet … the rest is silence” was such a huge hit, no one could stop talking about it. Since then, the Tsikurishvilis have produced more than 75 plays. The married couple now live happily ever after in Gainesville, Va., but, as you can see from their D.C. dream day, they still miss the tastes of their homeland. Paata: If I have a day off, I get up early to fish. We have a lake near our house — Lake Manassas — and there is a lot of park area around here. Where Seneca [Creek] is hitting the Potomac River — in that corner, that’s a good spot for outdoor activities, fishing, picnicking. You can catch the fish and cook it right away.

Irina: I like to walk and hike along the river with the dogs. We have two Doberman pinschers, Max and Maka. I used to love to walk with them for hours and hours down the Billy Goat Trail when we lived in Maryland. Paata: Maybe if we have a day off, we go to the museums.

Irina: My favorite is the Kennedy Center, because that’s the best place to see international art. I saw a Japanese theater company there, Sankai Juku. It was a long time ago and their performance stays in my head still. I’d like to go to a physicaltheater festival, with Familie Flöz from Germany and the Momix dance company. Paata: I second all of these. I’d also like to see Sukhishvili; they are a Georgian folk dance company that’s been around nearly 100 years. It lifts you up so much. It’s very exotic, very powerful, and they put onstage no less than 40 dancers. It’s monumental. It’s huge. And it’s on fire. Paata: We’d have dinner at Supra. It’s D.C.’s first Georgian restaurant — it was recently opened on 11th Street NW. This is the closest taste of my homeland. There’s a huge range of Georgian wine. And the food is amazing there — it’s very authentic. Irina: My favorite food there is this dumpling — it’s called khinkali. My next favorite is Georgian pizza — it’s called ajaruli. It’s in the shape of a bowl with a lot of cheese, and on top there’s an egg. My favorite wine is the Kindzmarauli. This is a semi-sweet ... Paata: Semi-dry, actually.

OKILLY DOKILLY

weekendpass

There goes the neighbor … Okilly Dokilly gives heavy metal a dose of the gospel according to Ned Flanders MUSIC In the music world, heavy metal comes in many different forms. There’s black metal, death metal — and even a subgenre inspired by Ned Flanders. Yes, Ned Flanders — the ultrareligious, clean-cut character on TV’s “The Simpsons,” known for his cheery “Hi-Diddly-Ho” and “Okily Dokily” catchphrases that are bemoaned by next-door neighbor Homer Simpson. The cheeky genre’s name is Nedal,

a sound coined and — for now — solely produced by Phoenix band Okilly Dokilly, which will perform at DC9 on Wednesday. Okilly Dokilly harnesses the abrasive sonic elements of sludge metal, akin to early Black Sabbath and Alice in Chains, but eschews doom-and-gloom lyrics in favor of quotes from the neighborly, overly friendly Flanders. As it turns out, a “Simpsons” metal band can indeed procure a large, dedicated fan base, and

no one is more surprised than the lead singer himself, Head Ned. “When we first started the band, we didn’t think we’d have much of an audience,” says Head Ned, who co-founded the quintet in 2015. But within a week after Okilly Dokilly released some demo tracks on Bandcamp that same year, the tunes garnered roughly a million streams and the band’s newly created Facebook page amassed 25,000 fans. The concept for Okilly Dokilly started as something of a gag. Head Ned wanted to form a metal band, but under the guise of something more playful and totally divergent from the genre’s brutal trappings. The group’s latest self-release, “Howdilly Twodilly,” the follow-up to 2016 debut album “Howdilly Doodilly,” is a testament to how this off-kilter juxtaposition comes together in a harmonious way. All of the record’s 11 songs are packed with references to and sayings from the God-loving “Simpsons” character, yet they paint Flanders in a much different light. “One thing that I look for when finding quotes is that if Ned Flanders says something out of

context, how heavy metal is it?” Head Ned says. To find quotes for the new record, Head Ned went back and watched the first 10 seasons of the long-running animated series before writing the songs. One example is the song

“When the Comet Gets Here,” a nod to a Season 6 episode in which Flanders hides in his homemade bomb shelter after learning that a comet is set to decimate Springfield. The shelter becomes overcrowded when more townsfolk discover its existence. After being nominated by Homer to leave due to overcapacity, Flanders willingly agrees to go, and tells his son Todd to “shoot Daddy if he tries to get back in.” Okilly Dokilly spun the quote in a way that makes Flanders sound much more menacing. Complementing the music is the band’s complete dedication to looking the part. All five members, including drummer Dread Ned, guitarist Shred Ned, bassist Bed Ned and keyboardist Zed Ned, sport Flanders’ hallmark green sweater, crisp pink polo, round glasses and, of course, his neatly trimmed mustache onstage. At shows, their fans often rise to the occasion and wear the same costume. Okilly Dokilly refers to these superfans as “Bonus Neds.” “We did a tour in the U.K. last year, and in London we had 25 people all dressed as Ned Flanders,” Head Ned recounts. “The mosh pit was a heavy shade of green, and a bunch of the fans were having a hard time telling who was in the band and who was just a fan dressed as Ned Flanders!” Okilly Dokilly has also caught the attention of “Simpsons” producers, who featured the band’s video for “White Wine Spritzer” during the credits of this past Sunday’s episode. Once the band finishes the U.S. leg of its tour, Okilly Dokilly will head to the other side of the globe to win over more fans. “We’re thinking of possibly going to Australia since there’s another ‘Simpsons’-themed band, Dr. Colossus, that we’d like to tour with,” Head Ned says. “That’s our goal — to take ‘Howdilly Twodilly’ and spread it as far as we can.” STEPHANIE WILLIAMS (EXPRESS)

Married performers Jason Moran and Alicia Hall Moran are the wind beneath “Two Wings.”

The roads taken, the songs sung ‘Two Wings’ charts the Great Migration through the music of a remade America STAGE As millions of black Americans fled the South of the 20th century, they were feeling millions of emotions. “Two Wings: The Music of Black America in Migration,” a concert at the Kennedy Center on Sunday, aims to capture the range of feelings — the excitement over new opportunities, the fear of racial hatred, the panic of leaving old lives behind. The concert, produced and presented by Jason Moran, the Kennedy Center’s artistic

director for jazz, and his wife, mezzo-soprano Alicia Hall Moran, tells the story of the historic Great Migration through music and the spoken word. “I think of ourselves as artists, using our craft to examine the Great Migration, its meaning for us as individuals, and then basking in the compound energy of all of the trips these individuals took and our gratitude,” Hall Moran says, noting that she long wanted to understand her own family’s migration patterns. Between the 1910s and 1970,

the Great Migration saw 6 million black Americans flee segregation and racial terrorism in the rural South for better lives in the urban Northeast, Midwest and West. The concert will weave in gospel, classical, work songs, R&B and rock ’n’ roll produced during or inspired by the migration. Hall Moran will perform several pieces with her husband, and get personal with her ballad, “Believe Me.” The song, inspired by her family’s California roots, talks about how “life could be sweet” and how “you can be made new.” Hall Moran’s father, Ira D. Hall Jr., found refuge in California in the 1960s after he escaped racism in Oklahoma City. He studied electrical engineering at Stanford University, where he became president of his class and met his future wife, Carole. After marrying, the couple had their daughter in Palo Alto, Calif. The Halls eventually moved to New York City and Connecticut to pursue their careers. Hall Moran’s father would go on to work as an IBM executive while her mother worked in publishing, spending most of her career at John Wiley & Sons as associate

publisher and editor-in-chief of general interest books. “That’s what change looks like,” Hall Moran says, adding that the paths her family took have allowed her to live the life she enjoys. Among the other performers taking the stage for Sunday’s concert are Grammy-winning gospel singer Smokie Norful, Grammy-nominated woodwind quintet Imani Winds and D.C.based brass band Sweet Heaven Kings. “We have found a singular group of great storytellers in their own mediums who each have stories to tell,” Hall Moran says. Operatic tenor Lawrence Brownlee will join Moran, an accomplished pianist, for a duet of the spiritual “There’s a Man Going Round Taking Names,” which was also featured in Ava DuVernay’s documentary “13th.” The night will strike a scholarly note when Farah Jasmine Griffin, chairwoman of Columbia University’s new African American and African Diaspora Studies department, reads a selection from her book “Who Set You Flowin’?”

“Some people literally were here today and gone tomorrow,” Hall Moran says of the black Americans who left the South. “No notice to their boss, no notice to the preacher, no notice to the teacher — no notice is no danger.” They took their culture and music with them, developing, for example, the blues in Chicago and the Motown sound in Detroit. Carnegie Hall commissioned the Morans to produce the concert for “Migrations: The Making of America,” its New York City-based festival exploring people’s movements across America. After the Kennedy Center performance, the show heads to Chicago and Hamburg, Germany. The couple hope “Two Wings” sparks curiosity in people to examine their personal migration stories. “I want them to have a new curiosity about their own families,” Hall Moran says. “I want them to ask themselves, how did they get to where they are and where did they come from?” LENORE T.

For his Umbrella installation, Reggie Black is covering a room with layers and layers of monochrome lettering.

All under one roof, it’s Umbrella Artists are taking over a D.C. complex for an anything-goes pop-up

EXHIBITS Just 20 years ago, 14th Street NW was lined with small art galleries and studio spaces. As luxury condos and restaurants took over, artists dispersed to less expensive parts of the city, to the suburbs and to Baltimore. “Fourteenth Street used to be the epicenter of a community of artists, a place for the crosspollination of ideas,” says Mark Kelner, a D.C. artist who lived

through the transition. “As D.C. has become too expensive for artists, the community has gotten a lot more fragmented.” In a three-day event called Umbrella, D.C.’s scattered art community is coming back together this weekend. The artists are taking over a building complex just north of 14th and V streets NW that’s slated for demolition and filling it with pop-up art galleries, immersive installations, a black box theater and a beer garden. “From the outside, [the space] looks like it’s all these different buildings, but they are all connected and it makes for a really

interesting, weird maze,” says Peter Chang, co-founder of No Kings Collective, the arts group that’s organizing the event in cooperation with developer Madison Investments. “When we explored the space and saw all these nooks and crannies, we thought it would be fun to bring on all these different artists and curators and see what they could do.” Umbrella is sort of a compact, curated version of the long-running D.C.-area arts festival known as Artomatic, Chang says. Admission is free, and the (portable) art on display will be for sale at relatively affordable prices — starting

at about $250, he says. (A portion of the proceeds will benefit nonprofit Feed It Forward DC.) D.C.-based artist and curator Maggie O’Neill nabbed the space with the highest visibility — a former classroom for the nonprofit Martha’s Table that has a big storefront window. She’s using it to present a show called “Tag Up” — so called because it started with seven female artists selected by O’Neill, who then tagged seven other female artists to join the show. Each artist will display one piece, resulting in a gallery featuring paintings, digital art and sculpture. “We’re also painting the floor with text that looks like the ‘Star Wars’ introduction, that tells the story of a group of female artists who come together to save the universe,” O’Neill says. In a nearby classroom, Monochrome Collective curator Nina O’Neil is showcasing local artist Reggie Black, who uses Japanese

brushstroke techniques to paint messages of hope and inspiration. Black is covering the floors and walls of his room with layers and layers of his trademark calligraphy, and he’ll also be showcasing 10 original paintings. “On the back wall, we are going to be reproducing one of his text-based pieces that says, ‘The future belongs to the brave’ in enormous floor-to-ceiling scale,” O’Neil says. Down the hall, visitors to Umbrella will find a former gymnasium bathed in eerie light — an installation by Pierre Edwards, also known as District Dodger.

Something borrowed STAGE Take a little bit of Justin Bieber, add some “Making the Band,” toss in a dash of George Bernard Shaw and you’ve got “P.Y.G. or The Mis-Edumacation of Dorian Belle,” a world-premiere play running this month at Studio Theatre. “When I started [writing], I was fascinated with Justin Bieber and Miley Cyrus and how they seem to adopt black culture as sort of a rebellion,” says playwright Tearrance Arvelle Chisholm, who is making his directing debut with this show. “When is that collaboration beneficial, and when is it detrimental to the people involved? The artistic relationship between different cultures is always fraught and, especially as a minority, you never know when your work is being commodified for the right reasons.” In the fictional play, the team behind white Canadian teen heartthrob Dorian Belle hires a

black hip-hop act (Petty Young Goons, aka P.Y.G.) from Chicago to help toughen Dorian’s image, a process that’s also being filmed for a reality TV show. Chisholm, who is black, often puts race at the center of his plays. His 2017 work “Br’er Cotton,” for example, is about a black teenager who, as a response to the killing of black men, begins to incite riots online and at school. His “Hooded, or Being Black for Dummies” is about one black teenager teaching another the “right” way to be black. (Mosiac Theater’s 2017 production of the show won the Helen Hayes Award for outstanding original new play or musical.) “P.Y.G.” takes some elements from Shaw’s 1913 play “Pygmalion,” which inspired, among other works, “My Fair Lady.” “It’s a very, very loose adaptation in that it’s two characters teaching a third character how to act,” says Chisholm, 34.

‘P.Y.G.,’ about a pop star’s push for street cred, weighs in on cultural appropriation

Left to right: Seth Hill, Simon Kiser and Gary L. Perkins III play a pop star and the rappers hired to “toughen” him up.

It also asks the question of whether the “right reasons” for being interested in another culture are ever the only reasons. “[Dorian’s] marketing and PR people set this thing up,” Chisholm says. “He has the intention of actually learning things, but the machine behind him may have different ideas. So he’s torn between his responsibilities as a performer and what he actually is interested in.” Chisholm’s major inspiration for “P.Y.G.” came from audience

talkbacks after performances of his other plays. “A lot of the white audience members were inspired to take action and would ask me what to do,” Chisholm says. “So I thought I’d write a play that basically tells white people what to do.” T h at doesn’t me a n th at Chisholm, who received his MFA in playwriting from the Catholic University of America in 2016 and has set plays in and around the D.C. area, knows exactly what to tell his white audience

members — like many conversations surrounding race and the line between being inspired by a culture and appropriating it, there’s a lot of ambiguity. That doesn’t bother him. “ I n some ways I ’m tr ying to give some concrete answers,” he says. “As well as ask some questions that I don’t have the answers to myself.” KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS)

Which river are you down with?

The Gauley and the New in West Virginia offer unique whitewater experiences, so choose wisely

You know it’s springtime in West Virginia when the robins start singing and the tourists start screaming — happily, while riding giant rubber rafts down the New and Gauley rivers. ¶ “These are two of the most intense whitewater runs in the country, and they are just a five-hour drive from D.C.,” says Skip Heater, owner of New & Gauley River Adventures. ¶ While both rivers offer world-class whitewater, they have very different personalities, says Jo-Beth Stamm, a river guide with Adventures on the Gorge. The Gauley, she says, is your leather-clad bad boy — wild and a little bit dangerous. The New River is the nice young man you’d bring home to Mama — reliable, wholesome fun. ¶ “Which one you go on will depend on the conditions and what kind of challenge you’re up for,” Stamm says, adding that the Gauley is better for experienced paddlers, while the New River can be appropriate for firsttimers. But for either river, you’ll need to be in relatively good shape, and not afraid of taking a dip in cold water. ¶ “We try to keep you in the raft, but you will definitely get wet,” Stamm says. SADIE DINGFELDER (EXPRESS)


APRIL.2019 | EXPRESS | S3

Gauley River Steep, twisty and narrow, the Gauley River is one of the most intense stretches of whitewater in the world, packed with Class V (extremely difficult) rapids that have been given evocative names like Heaven Help You and Pure Screaming Hell. Probably the most intense section of the river is the deceptively named Pillow Rock — a section that begins with a 30-foot drop, after which you’ll paddle directly toward a house-size boulder, says PJ Stevenson, the marketing director of Adventures on the Gorge. Then you launch into another stomach-churning drop.

“It’s 10 seconds of pure whitewater chaos,” she says. That is, assuming the Gauley is gushing when you’re in town. In the springtime, the flow of the river varies from a trickle to a torrent, depending on how much water the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is releasing from the Summersville reservoir. The engineers announce their plans for the day every morning, and rafting companies can make some predictions based on rainfall, Stevenson says. “With the Gauley, you never really know what you’re going to get,” she says.

New River You can always count on the New River for a heart-pumping ride in the spring, says Haynes Mansfield, marketing director of ACE Adventure Resort. That’s because the New River is a broad, free-flowing river that reliably swells when the snow melts, turning it into “a giant roller coaster,” he says. “You get these massive standing waves that have the same curling structure as an ocean wave,” Mansfield says. His favorite section of the river is a three-wave series known as Whale Rock. “You travel up the face of the wave, break through the foam pile and come through the other side right into another wave,” Mansfield says.

Unlike the Gauley, the New River does offer calm, flat sections where you can take in the beauty and the history of the area, he says. In the spring, before the trees have fully unfurled their leaves, you can make out the foundations of old mining towns and soak in the delicate beauty of wildflower-dappled fields. Both the New and the Gauley are great spring flings, Stamm says, but if she had to pick one, she’d go with the New River because it’s fun, reliable and handsome as hell. “The New River Gorge is so lush and green and just unbelievably gorgeous,” she says. “There’s no better place to experience the spring.”

You can really soak in all that Berkeley Springs State Park has to offer.

Escape the city for these small towns A weekend outing to Harpers Ferry, that quaint hiking and rafting town, is practically required traveling for

Washington-based explorers. This spring, keep going. Venture farther into West Virginia and you’ll find scenic peaks — it’s the only state that lies completely within the Appalachian Mountains region — and ample recreation activities. “We’re the opposite of the congestion and stress inside the Beltway,” says West Virginia tourism commissioner Chelsea Ruby, who relocated to West Virginia from the District eight years ago. “It’s a place where you can escape the daily grind. We’ve got everything from outdoor recreation, music and dining, to true Appalachian culture in mountain towns with unrivaled charm.” Here are three such spots worth a weekend trip. ANGELA HAUPT (FOR EXPRESS)

Berkeley Springs In 1748, George Washington visited this tiny mountain town — population: under 1,000 — and was so taken with it that he visited regularly for years. Berkeley Springs was originally named Bath after the spa city in England, and it’s known for sparkling mineral springs where the water remains 74 degrees Fahrenheit year-round. (Stop by a pumping station with a jug and take some home for free.) At Berkeley Springs State Park (2 S. Washington St.), enjoy a soak in the main bathhouse, where private baths are filled with hundreds of gallons of heated mineral water from the springs. Splurge on a hot stone massage, or luxuriate in a sauna or whirlpool. Then dip your feet into George Washington’s Bathtub, a replica of the outdoor thermal pool that Washington visited in the hopes that it would heal his fever and other ailments. “It’s a very walkable town, with a charming, relaxed atmosphere,” Ruby says.

Five Mile Mountain Distillery aims to source its ingredients from local farmers.

A perfect place for moonshine

Distilleries in Franklin County (legally) keep a tradition going strong DRINKS Necessity is the mother of invention. And, when it comes to Franklin County, moonshine. Virginia’s Franklin County, about 250 miles from D.C., is known as the “moonshine capital of the world.” It isn’t the only place where you’ll find moonshine (which can actually be any type of liquor; the name reflects how the once-illicit booze had to be made by the light of the moon), but Franklin County might be the perfect place for it, partially because for a long time, the hilly landscape wasn’t perfect for much else. “If you lived in this part of

the country, you might have 75 acres, but maybe 4 acres by the creek were all you could actually farm,” says Linda Stanley, managing director of the Franklin County Historical Society. However, there are “cool springs, lots of good water, a lot of forests, and you could drive right along the road, and right over the bank, people could be making liquor and you wouldn’t even know. It’s a perfect place to make it.” And people are making it. While moonshine has traditionally been a backyard (or backwoods) industry, more and more moonshiners have been stepping into the sunshine by getting

licenses and opening legal distilleries. The following three distilleries celebrate the trade that was launched by the first Scotch-Irish immigrants who arrived in western Virginia and kept the area solvent during Prohibition, when Franklin County liquor was shipped in huge quantities to D.C., Baltimore and Philadelphia. The distilleries’ tastings, craft cocktails and behind-the-scenes looks are all keeping what Stanley politely calls “the local liquid industry” thriving — with no chance of getting busted. Says Stanley: “We’re still making money off of moonshine.”

Franklin County Distilleries 25156 Highway 220, Boones Mill, Va.; Fridays-Sundays, various times.

“When I was in 11th grade, I had to do a report in my government class about what I wanted to do when I grew up, and mine was on moonshining,” says Andy Lumsden, distiller for Franklin County Distilleries. “And I’ll never forget it, because my teacher told me that it wasn’t a true profession. When I got my first check from my legal distillery, my mom said, ‘I wish you could show him that now.’” In addition to traditional corn and rye whiskeys and fruit brandies, Franklin County Distilleries also makes a rum and a twoyear aged whiskey, all produced in the ways Lumsden learned from his family members, who made illegal moonshine. (Before getting his license and going legit, Lumsden carried on that family tradition; in 2013, he was convicted of possessing an illegal distilling apparatus. “I had ABC agents roll in,” Lumsden says, but the still was empty, since

he had just finished a batch of corn whiskey. “They showed up about 12 hours too late,” he says. So Lumsden just had to just pay a fine and the cost of destroying the still.) Lumsden uses traditional methods, but he’s seen major advancements over the years (though some things will never change). “It is a pain in the butt with the laws. In the woods, you don’t do paperwork,” he says. “The actual production of the whiskey, the only thing that’s different for me is I’m inside and don’t have to worry about the weather. I don’t have to go out there and freeze to death.” Lumsden doesn’t care for the clichéd caricature of the mountain moonshiner. “These guys working in the woods knew a lot more than people gave them credit for,” he says. “They’re true chemists. Just because a guy wears bib overalls and works in the woods, there’s this misconception that he’s this uneducated hillbilly. They’re some of the smartest men I’ve ever been around my entire life.”

Five Mile Mountain Distillery owner Kerry Underwood wants to make sure his moonshine carries on another tradition: keeping the business as local as possible, starting from the ground up. “We wanted to source our corn locally and encourage local farmers to plant the corn,” says Underwood, who started the distillery, located in an converted industrial building in neighboring Floyd County, in 2016. “We’re trying to do that with our barley, and slowly but surely we’d like to source everything from within about 100 miles of our distilleries.” At Five Mile’s tasting room, you can sample both straight spirits and cocktails made with one of the distillery’s four products; the cocktails are to “open people’s minds a little bit” about what moonshine is good for,

Underwood says. They blend a Moonshine Margarita with their basic Sweet Mountain Moonshine, a Five Mile Mule with their Elderberry Moonshine and ginger beer, and an Appalachian Mimosa with Lemon Ginseng Moonshine, triple sec, Meyer lemon and prosecco. “Not many people sit around and drink straight vodka. Well, some people do and they call it a martini,” Underwood says. “Our product can substitute anywhere a good vodka or a good rum would go.” Underwood and his business partner, Pat Sisk, started distilling as a hobby in 2012. “A lot of input — solicited or not — from the old-timers told us what we needed to know, and we honed our recipe over time,” Underwood says. “The stories we’ve been told I’m sure these old-timers have never mentioned to another soul in their life, but because we were making moonshine they felt that kindred spirit and let us have some of their stories.”

Twin Creeks Distillery owner and master distiller Chris Prillaman, right, and his nephew, Tanner Talley, are keeping a family tradition going.

Twin Creeks Distillery 510 Franklin St., Rocky Mount, Va.; Thursdays-Saturdays, various times.

“People see clear liquor and they think, ‘Golly, that’s moonshine. I don’t want any of that,’ ” says Chris Prillaman, owner of Twin Creeks Distillery. “But that’s far from the truth.” Prillaman — whose family

has been making moonshine in Franklin County since the late 1800s — oversees the distilling of Twin Creeks’ seven liquors, which include a corn whiskey, fruit brandies and a sweet mash rye that took a silver medal in the 2018 American Craft Spirits Awards. Visitors to the company’s newly opened tasting room can sample

the products — some of which are available only at the distillery — and get a lesson on how the liquor came to be. Twin Creeks has a small-batch copper still that’s used for some specialty spirits (everything else is made on-site but in larger stills). “People who come to wineries want to see how that wine is made,” says Susan Carter, Twin Creeks’ marketing manager. “We are really showing the history and the heritage of what it took to make these spirits back in the day.” Prillaman, the business’s master distiller, knows exactly how they made the spirits back in the day — he learned his craft from friends of his grandfather, long before moonshine was legal. “The one fellow in particular who took me under his wing, he was all about making craft spirits,” Prillaman says. “And once you get started making liquor, it don’t ever get out of your blood. It’s just something you gotta do.” KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS)

GATHERING GROUNDS

ALLYSAH FOX

Gathering Grounds

Going deeper into Luray, Va. You’ll find more than massive caverns in this charming town if you spend the day our way The biggest tourist attraction in Luray, Va., is the natural wonder of Luray Caverns, the largest caverns in the eastern U.S. But the caves aren’t Luray’s only crown jewel. Above the dark, rocky depths is a quaint town filled with choice outdoor activities, food and drink options, and more entertainment to keep the pickiest traveler occupied. In fact, you can still spend an adventurous day there without even setting foot in scenic, sprawling Shenandoah National Park. A breezy escape located roughly 90 miles from D.C., Luray makes for an easy day trip. Here’s a sample itinerary. STEPHANIE WILLIAMS (EXPRESS)

Gathering Grounds 24 E. Main St.

Located on the town’s historic Main Street, Gathering Grounds is a cozy cafe filled with quirky knickknacks and German shepherd-themed decor. Gathering Grounds’ charming small-town aesthetic is also reflected in the food — everything on the menu is made from scratch, and a typical meal usually requires a to-go box. “We’ve actually had people complain that the portions were

too big,” co-owner Leigh Overend says. To start your day, you can’t go wrong with the breakfast wrap, a heavenly marriage of fluffy scrambled eggs, perfectly crisped bacon (or sausage), potatoes, ham, black olives, tomatoes, cheese and green chilies in a warm, soft tortilla. Or, try Gathering’s toasted croissant and egg sandwiches with either ham or bacon. Pair your choice with one of the specialty frappuccinos, available in such flavors

as chocolate peanut, red velvet and java chip.

Luray Zoo 1087 U.S. Highway 211 West

The 3-acre Luray Zoo has a heartwarming backstory — all of the 200 or so animals that live there are rescues. Owners and married couple Mark and Christine Kilby work full time to care for the critters that were previously abused, confiscated by animal control or no longer


APRIL.2019 | EXPRESS | S11

springgetaways wanted as family pets. The privately owned zoo has a vast group of exotic animals — including a tiger, monkeys and lemurs — and one of the “largest venomous snake collections on the East Coast,” Mark says. “The biggest thing I love here is that I can educate people about animals they fear.” If poisonous reptiles aren’t your thing, there’s also a petting zoo with goats, sheep, emus and a wallaby.

Gennaro’s Italian Restaurant & Pizzeria 402 W. Main St.

This small, unassuming eatery’s signature dish is the New York-style pizza, but the real standouts on the menu are the subs, especially the Italian. The sandwiches are stacked with a generous amount of cold cuts and balanced by just the right amount of lettuce, tomato, onion, mayo, hot peppers and seasoning. Go there for lunch, or if you need a late-night snack: Gennaro’s is one of the only restaurants in Luray open past 8 p.m. (hey, it is a small town, after all).

Luray-Hawksbill Greenway 45 E Main St.

With our itinerary, you don’t have time for an adventurous, four-hour hike in Shenandoah National Park. Instead, head to this 2-mile trail, which is close enough to downtown that you can easily fit a stroll into your schedule, but is secluded enough that you’re smack-dab in the middle of nature, surrounded by lush greenery, wildlife and a picturesque creek with the park as the backdrop. Pay close attention to the locally created, large-scale murals of Luray on various buildings along the trail. Hawksbill is a prime spot for bikers — the trail has a dedicated path — and for bird-watchers, who can spot some of the roughly 200 species found around the area.

Hawksbill Brewing Company 22 Zerkel St.

After getting some exercise in, it’s time to reward yourself with a drink (or two). Hawksbill Brewing Company, the town’s only craft brewery, is right off

the Greenway. Locally sourced ingredients provide the base for many beers, such as blackberries from Survivor Farm in the Brown Cow chocolate milk stout, or hops from Hawksbill Hop Yards for the Hooray for Luray IPA.

Circa ’31 at Mimslyn Inn 401 Main St.

Situated on a hill overlooking the Shenandoah Valley, Mimslyn Inn looks like something straight out of “Gone With the Wind.” “We have a Southern style and charm with a touch of class,” says Mimslyn general manager Jim Sims. Elegant, vintage furnishings dress the floor and walls of the historic hotel, which was built in 1931. For dinner, the inn’s restaurant, Circa ’31, has a wide selection of meats, seafood and veggie options (the ribeye and garlic mashed potatoes are standouts). If you’re traveling with someone on a Friday (starting April 19), take advantage of the Date Night deal: For the price of a few drinks at a swanky D.C. bar ($39.95 per couple), you’ll each get a threecourse meal plus a bottle of wine to share. On some Saturdays, the restaurant hosts dinner shows featuring local impersonators, such as April 27’s Dean Martin and Bobby Darin tribute.

Speakeasy Bar and Restaurant at Mimslyn Inn 401 Main St.

For a nightcap, head downstairs to Mimslyn Inn’s Speakeasy, which pays homage to its roots with Prohibition-era decor. Though it’s called a speak-easy, the vibe is more akin to a casual neighborhood watering hole. The bar typically has 10 different Virginia craft beers on tap throughout the year, and for the non-beer drinkers, an assortment of seasonal cocktails. If you’re still hungry, Speakeasy serves up comfort food such as pulled pork sandwiches and apple pie (for which the hotel’s recipe has remained unchanged since its opening, Sims says). Local musicians provide the entertainment during the spring and summer months.

‘Enrico David: Gradations of Slow Release’

Timothy Showalter was ready to give up on his band, Strand of Oaks, when members of My Morning Jacket intervened. The MMJ guys, sans singer Jim James, basically told Showalter that they would back him on a new album and (with some additional help from Jason Isbell), “Eraserland” was born. The album combines MMJ’s Southern psychedelia with Showalter’s direct songwriting, highlighted best on the tender “Keys,” dedicated to his wife.

Italian-born, London-based artist Enrico David creates figures that may be distorted but are all invariably human. The pieces in this exhibit include installations, paintings and sculptures. The show spans 20 years of David’s career, so viewers can trace his work’s evolution. Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Independence Avenue and Seventh Street SW; Tue. through Sept. 2, free.

UPON THIS ROCK REDEEMED The young ones heard: “Let the children come to me and do not hinder them.”

Music and lyrics by Pete Townshend

What is this has come to light, Bubbling whispers now grown up? How could you despoil our life With narrative to indict?

I won’t report these guys even now. My job is just to cover it up. Hide behind our good peer brothers. Answer only to code we make our own.

We must protect our church you See, Tradition, sanctity, must be. What will it take to shield our Rock? We must maintain our faithful flock.

We don’t resign – just slap some salve, Best annuity we could have. Where else could we stay CEOs Flaunt God and man as on it goes...

And little boys feared: “You would have no power over me whatever unless it were given from above.”

Book by Des McAnuff and Pete Townshend Additional music and lyrics by John Entwistle and Keith Moon

Here it is again you say, We thought it would have moved on. How can’t these guys understand? Maybe we should turn them loose.

Music Director Lynne Shankel Director and Choreographer Josh Rhodes

If we acknowledge what they did, Soon more may claim all that we hid. If forced out they might turn on us, Let’s just transfer to stop this fuss.

And men seethed: “My God, my God, Why have you forsaken me?”

We’ll just rely on how we See, Hoist penitence on our marquee. We can survive this awful thing, See what apology will bring.

... Then the good ones finally cried out: “I thirst.” Abusers prey on human heart, Kill innocence with rabid lust. Protectors are weak walking dead, Their power lust destroying trust. Institutions cross world wide Evolve within God’s human time. Dereliction to sacred trust Is grave complicity in crime. Then old ones gasped: “Still sleeping? Still taking your ease? The hour has come! The Son of Man is betrayed to sinful men. Up, let us go forward...” There is no dawn without dark night, No truth of day without new light. Resurrected Rock must now say, God’s people’s law abides each day! In dead of day I walked in trust, Across worn iron bridge of rust, To where all innocents were laid, Beneath Rock real redemption made. And then He sighed: “Now it is finished.” L. M.

entertainment TELEVISION

The avengers’ endgame As Cersei Lannister said, “When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die.” That’s not true, hopefully. Otherwise, the eighth and final season of HBO’s hit series will just be a string of deaths. But it’s likely someone will overcome loss and hardship to sit on the Iron Throne when the credits roll. Here are the top contenders ahead of Sunday’s season premiere. TRAVIS M. ANDREWS (THE WASHINGTON POST)

HBO VIA AP/EXPRESS ILLUSTRATIONS

Gunther saga ends by going back to the past

Jon Snow

Daenerys Targaryen

Bran Stark

Sansa Stark

Were this just about any other television show, Jon Snow would end up ruling Westeros. He’s nearly unwaveringly virtuous, likes to stare off into the distance thinking of Important Things and would look pretty good with a crown. He also began as an underdog, being falsely presented as Ned Stark’s bastard child. Now it’s slowly coming out that he was the child of secretly married couple Rhaegar Targaryen (son of the Mad King and brother to Daenerys) and Lyanna Stark (Ned’s sister), who are both dead. There’s an incredibly strong argument that this makes the Iron Throne his birthright. Jon Snow becoming the king would be the logical conclusion of the hero’s journey, but “Game of Thrones” is all about subverting narrative norms.

The sharpest argument against Daenerys ending up on the throne is how badly she wants it. That small point aside, though, she would be a sensible queen. For those who don’t remember, she’s the daughter of Aerys II Targaryen, aka the Mad King. Aerys was assassinated by Jaime Lannister and succeeded by Robert Baratheon, which ended a 300-ish-year rule by the Targaryens, so many believe the Targaryens still have a rightful claim to the throne. Because Daenerys (like most people) doesn’t know Jon Snow’s true heritage, she seems like the only Targaryen left to claim said throne. Also, she has dragons, and these creatures are how the Targaryens conquered the Seven Kingdoms in the first place.

Oddsmakers have Bran as the favorite to sit on the Iron Throne, which might raise the question, “Wait, what?” The chance of this unlikely scenario playing out — the brainchild of some truly devoted fans — seems unlikely. Bran has no particular claim to the throne, and he has two living siblings who might take umbrage with the young man ruling Westeros. But the fan theory is far more complicated than him coming in and taking over. Some believe that Bran and the villainous Night King either are or will become the same person. The argument goes that Bran keeps traveling back in time, trying to stop the Night King from ever being created. Instead, he accidentally becomes him. And, in this theory, he ends up taking over Westeros.

When it comes to the Starks, Sansa seems most likely to sit on the Iron Throne. Her hellish journey has taken her from wanting to be a princess to learning the cold truths of a ruthless world. Though she doesn’t agree with Cersei’s morality, she did learn a great deal from the current queen of the Seven Kingdoms. When she returned home to Winterfell, she showed a desire to lead, clashing several times with Jon Snow. Plus, Sansa might be the strongest character on the show. It’s not like anyone’s had it easy, per se, but Sansa arguably faced the most hardship. Yet Sansa somehow only grew more confident, more intelligent and more empathetic. That’s the kind of ruler this land could use.

Hawkeye gets his shot on Disney+

Jeremy Renner is set to star in a Disney+ limited series about his “Avengers” character, Hawkeye, according to Variety. Renner will make his fifth appearance as Hawkeye, aka Clint Barton, later this month in “Avengers: Endgame.” The Disney+ series reportedly will follow Barton as he then passes the torch to Kate Bishop, who took on the Hawkeye mantle in the Marvel comics. The Disney+ platform is expected to launch later this year. (EXPRESS) Netflix launching comedy channel on SiriusXM

Ryan Murphy to adapt Broadway musical “The Prom” into Netflix movie

BOOK REVIEW “Metropolis,” written by a cancer-striken Philip Kerr as he faced his own mortality, is the 14th and final story about Bernie Gunther, Kerr’s conflicted investigator in pre-World War II Berlin. It’s also the start of Bernie’s personal chronology, taking us back to 1928 and his first case as a homicide cop: a string of murders committed by a killer nicknamed “Winnetou.” From his debut outing in “March Violets,” Gunther has been one of crime’s favorite protagonists. But in “Metropolis” — which came out Tuesday, a year after Kerr’s death — readers see that he’s not an easy hero to live with, nor even a comfortable antihero. First and last, though, this is a detective story, a hard-boiled murder mystery, and it delivers in high style. There are traces, perhaps, of the urgent pace of its creation. Does Gunther’s drinking problem come and go a little abruptly? Or is it just that he, like Sherlock Holmes, abuses intoxicants when forced to idleness? But that’s small potatoes. “Metropolis” is a consummately told tale with lashings of vice and horror that works either as a gripping stand-alone or as the keystone of a 14-book saga with a deeper, more troubling flavor. It’s also a perfect goodbye — and first hello — to its hero. In “Metropolis,” Bernie Gunther has, at last, come home. NICK HARKAWAY (TWP)

“Truly, there are not enough things named after George Washington in the city of Washington, home to George Washington University and Georgetown.” @KCOXDC, joking about President Trump’s comments on a visit to Mount Vernon in April 2018 that the founding father should have named the estate after himself. As reported Wednesday by Politico, Trump said, “You’ve got to put your name on stuff or no one remembers you.” Twitter users noted that Washington has a city, monument and universities named after him.

“Not sure Scar’s voice is menacing enough but I still predict I’ll go see this [approximately] 300 times.” @JAYJAFFA, tweeting about the first full trailer for the photo-

realistic CGI remake of “The Lion King,” which was released Wednesday. The clip gave fans their first look at Scar, the uncle of main character Simba. Viewers weren’t completely convinced that actor Chiwetel Ejiofor, who’s voicing the villain, sounded scary enough, and wondered why Jeremy Irons, who voiced Scar in the original, wasn’t tapped for the film, considering James Earl Jones was brought back to reprise his role as Mufasa. Others pointed out that the new Scar doesn’t have a black mane, as he does in the original.

“I am curled up in the fetal position waiting for you to take this back.” @THEAMADISKAY, reacting to Heinz’s

collaboration with Cadbury to create [Seriously] Good Mayo, which combines the traditional condiment with Cadbury Creme Eggs. Twitter users were appalled by the mixture, pointing out that the candy’s flavoring wouldn’t pair well with most foods. Heinz seems to be on a questionable roll with sauce concoctions: On April 3 it announced the ketchup-ranch mashup Kranch, and it expanded its Saucy Sauce line with Mayomust and Mayocue in March. The new mayo is only available in the U.K.

“Why do I need a 90-minute movie to tell me what a brief movie intro and a 3-minute song already accomplished?” @ANGRYBOOKLADY, complaining about

the news that Paramount is developing a prequel to its hit 1978 musical “Grease” titled “Summer Loving.” The film will reportedly explore the summer that main characters Sandy Olsson (played by Olivia Newton-John) and Danny Zuko (played by John Travolta) met. Fans of the musical mused on Twitter that such a prequel isn’t needed, as the song “Summer Nights” describes what occurred between the two.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You’re inspired by someone who has been facing all manner of difficulties and demons. Today you can put something you’ve learned to good use.

aren’t likely to realize until very late in the day just how far you are from your intended destination.

TODAY: Some increasing clouds may hold temperatures back a couple of degrees from Wednesday. But overall, it will be another nice day, with high pressure still in control. Highs will head for the mid-60s, with light winds from the southeast. A continuing breeze from the southeast will result in a milder night.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You’re eager to make a statement today, and you know that you must let actions speak for you. What to do becomes clear quite suddenly. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You’re feeling somewhat put out today, and there’s no time for such negative emotions. You must assert yourself in a positive manner.

Chris Hemsworth said he had to get creative to sneak his child onto a Disney ride. On “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” on Tuesday, Hemsworth said he tried to take his daughter on the “Tower of Terror” ride a few years ago but she was too short. “I grabbed a couple of Snickers bars and things and slammed them in the back of her shoe under her heel,” Hemsworth said. Thus taller, his daughter was allowed on the ride. (EXPRESS)
