Don’t yell ‘Fire!’ — or accidentally release a cloud of pepper spray
Tuna apparently wandered into a bad neck of the woods
Parents weren’t amused when OB shouted, ‘It’s alive! It’s alive!’
Although it’s legal to drink beer in German movie theaters, it’s dumb to try to open your beer bottle with a pepper spray canister. But that’s what a patron did at a cinema Monday night in Osnabrueck. Instead of opening his beer, the man broke his pepper spray container — and some 200 people fled the theater in tears. After the chaos, the theater manager restarted the film for his hardy customers who remained. (AP)
Spotting a 400-pound tuna in the Massachusetts seaport of Gloucester is not unusual. But finding a headless tuna in the woods is a bit odd. State Environmental Police and federal fisheries regulators are trying to figure out who dumped the headless fish, which had to be hauled out of the trees by a tow truck. The tuna season runs from early June to November, but an official said the tuna was harvested illegally. (AP)

Fan: Oshie ‘actually cares’ CAPITALS T.J. Oshie and 9-year-old Addy Flint hugged, and then they began catching up like the old friends they’ve become. Oshie asked what she was going to be for Halloween. Mal from The Descendants, she said. Oshie complimented Addy’s Capitals jersey, a No. 77 Oshie one that he signed for her the first time they met. She giggled and said thanks. Addy then told Oshie about her plans for the evening, trick-or-treating and watching a movie projected on the side of a friend’s white house. “How’s treatment going?” Oshie then asked. Addy scrunched up her face because it’s been hard. The first time she met Oshie was last November, when the Capitals paired each player with a kid from Make-A-Wish’s Mid-Atlantic chapter. At the time, Addy had been in remission for three years from a life-threatening kidney cancer she was diagnosed with at age 4. She’s relapsed since then and has had three surgeries since

Lyla is happy and healthy now, but in this way, he can relate to what the Flints have been going through. “It’s the hardest thing I can imagine as a parent to watch your kid go through,” Oshie said. Addy has been going through five-week treatment cycles with three different types of chemotherapy. She had chemotherapy on Monday. Addy’s visit with Oshie on Tuesday was “the happy part” of her day, Stacey said. The “sad part” came after, when she had to go back to the clinic for more treatment. The Flints will be at the Capitals’ game against the Islanders today. Oshie asked that Addy wear her lucky ladybug earrings to help him break out of his “cold streak.” “Hopefully I can put on a show for her,” he said. ISABELLE KHURSHUDYAN (THE WASHINGTON POST)

local VIRGINIA Al Cardenas, the former head of the American Conservative Union, has long lauded Republican Ed Gillespie for his campaign to diversify the GOP and recruit minority candidates. Now Cardenas is among a cluster of Republican leaders, operatives and Gillespie associates who are struggling to embrace the rhetoric he’s deploying in his race for Virginia governor against Democrat Ralph Northam. In recent days, they have expressed disapproval over Gillespie’s campaign commercials,

KKK recruitment flyers found in Halloween candy
Ex-prosecutor nominated as U.S. attorney in Maryland
A man who sold fentanyl-laced heroin that caused fatal overdoses has been sentenced to 36 years in prison. The Virginian-Pilot reported Wednesday that Erskine Dawson Jr. led a heroin ring that operated in Virginia Beach and Chesapeake. Prosecutors blamed Dawson for more than a dozen overdoses. They said Dawson knew that at least two were fatal. U.S. District Judge Raymond Jackson told Dawson in court that he was “involved in some of the most coldhearted drug dealing” the court had seen. According to court records, the drugs were often smuggled into the region inside stuffed animals and on commercial buses. (AP)
Police in Leesburg were investigating after KKK recruitment flyers were allegedly found Sunday inside bags with Halloween candy, WUSA9 reported.

GOP tax plan won’t cut rate for highest earners

Navy seeks big changes in wake of two collisions
EXTINCTION STUDY
Neanderthals were always doomed to fail ALEX WONG (GETTY IMAGES)
POLITICS Furiously working to finish a tax bill, House Republicans have decided to keep the income tax rate for the wealthiest earners in the face of Democratic criticism that the overhaul pushed by President Trump would benefit the rich. Trump and the GOP consider a revamp of the nation’s tax code, the first in three decades, a legislative and political imperative after the collapse this past summer of Republican attempts to repeal the Affordable Care Act. Republicans insist they must deliver on taxes to keep their congressional majorities in next year’s midterm elections. Health care was clearly a consideration in Trump’s tweet Wednesday as he suggested repealing the requirement that Americans get health insurance or face a tax penalty. He wrote, “Wouldn’t it be great to Repeal the very unfair and unpopular Individual Mandate in ObamaCare and use those savings for further Tax Cuts for the Middle Class. The House and Senate should consider ASAP as the process of final approval moves along. Push Biggest Tax Cuts EVER.” The idea of repealing the individual mandate has been pushed by one Republican senator, Arkansas’ Tom Cotton. However,

As bill is delayed, Trump says it should include Obamacare changes
Texas Republican Rep. Kevin Brady, right, chairman of the Ways and Means Committee, has steered the tax reforms sought by President Trump.
House Republican leaders see such a step as adding political complications to an already difficult task of crafting a tax bill that can pass the House and Senate. “I think tax reform is complicated enough without adding another layer of complexity,” said No. 2 Senate Republican John Cornyn of Texas. The GOP blew past its self-imposed deadline for public release of the plan, with the rollout now set for today. Trump set an ambitious by-Christmas timetable for passage of a major rewrite. It remains to be seen whether it will be the biggest tax cut ever, as he claims.

Tax writers decided to maintain the highest personal income tax rate at its current 39.6 percent and to slash the top tax rate for corporations to 20 percent from 35 percent. They strained to complete other last-minute changes, but failed to finalize details to meet their Wednesday deadline for a public release. “We are making excellent progress. We are very close,” said Rep. Kevin Brady, R-Texas, chairman of the tax-writing Ways and Means Committee. The committee plans to vote on the bill next week, he said, adding that the drafters are hard at work. MARCY GORDON AND ANDREW TAYLOR (AP)
What killed off the Neanderthals? A new study says that no matter what the answer, they were doomed anyway. Our close evolutionary cousins enjoyed a long run in Europe and Asia, but they disappeared about 40,000 years ago after modern humans showed up from Africa. The search for an explanation has produced many theories, including epidemics or inability to compete with the modern humans. The study, released Tuesday in the journal Nature Communications, says a slow trickle of migration of modern humans from Africa helped bolster the human population, while the Neanderthals slid into inevitable extinction.

Opioid panel calls for more treatments President Trump’s commission on the opioid crisis called Wednesday for more drug courts and easier access to alternatives to opioids for people in pain, part of a wide-ranging menu of improvements it said are needed to curb the opioid epidemic. The commission, headed by New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, above, called for expanding drug courts — an alternative system that tries to channel substance abusers accused of crimes into treatment — into all 93 federal court jurisdictions. Currently they are in less than half. The 56 recommendations in the draft report also include requiring doctors and others who prescribe opioids to show they have received training in the safe provision of those drugs before they can renew their licenses to handle controlled substances with the Drug Enforcement Administration. The American Medical Association has expressed concern about a “one-size-fitsall” training. The President’s Commission on Combating Drug Addiction and the Opioid Crisis specifically declined to endorse the use of marijuana for pain, despite studies that suggest that access to marijuana might decrease opioid deaths, nor did it identify new funding for the drug crisis, which claims the lives of an estimated 175 people every day.

Suspect inspired by ISIS Accused attacker charged with terrorism in New York City rampage that left 8 dead Trump demands end to diversity visa program

a militant-monitoring agency. Carlos Batista, a neighbor of Saipov’s in Paterson, N.J., said he had seen the suspect and two friends using the same model of rented truck several times in the past three weeks. It was not clear whether Saipov had been on authorities’ radar. Miller said Saipov had never been the subject of a criminal probe but appears to have links to people who have been investigated. In the attack, Saipov drove his truck for nearly a mile along a bike path, running down cyclists and pedestrians, then crashed into a school bus. He was shot in the abdomen after he jumped out of the vehicle brandishing two air guns, yelling “God is great!” in Arabic, police said. Authorities converged Wednesday on his Paterson apartment. Saipov is a legal, permanent U.S. resident. He lived in Ohio and Florida before moving to New Jersey in June, authorities said. COLLEEN LONG AND
POLITICS President Trump said Wednesday he is considering sending the Uzbek immigrant accused of killing eight people in Tuesday’s terrorist attack in New York to the U.S. military prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and that the U.S. must be “much tougher” with its treatment of terror suspects. Trump also called on Congress to immediately dismantle the State Department’s Diversity Visa Lottery program, through which authorities said the suspected attacker, Sayfullo Saipov, came to the U.S. from Uzbekistan. Referring to Saipov as an “animal,” Trump said the 29-yearold was responsible for the entry of 23 immigrants, many of them family members. The president said this “chain migration” endangers national security. When a reporter asked whether Saipov should be sent to Guantanamo Bay, Trump replied, “I would certainly consider that, yes. Send him to Gitmo.” Trump seized on the Diversity Visa Lottery program and criticized Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., as a culprit. In 1990, Schumer, then a House member, introduced the bill that helped create the visa program, which passed Congress with a bipartisan majority and was signed into law by former president George H.W. Bush, a Republican. In 2013, however, Schumer was part of a bipartisan group of senators who sought to end the program. PHILIP RUCKER

religious references and said, “Islamic Supplication. It will endure.” The phrase “it will endure” commonly refers to ISIS, FBI agent Amber Tyree said in court papers. Questioned in his hospital bed, Saipov said he had been inspired by ISIS videos that he watched on his cellphone and began plotting an attack about a year ago, deciding to use a truck about two months ago, Tyree said. During the past few weeks, Saipov searched the internet for information on Halloween in New York City and for truck rentals, the FBI agent said. Saipov even rented a truck Oct. 22 to practice making turns, and he initially hoped to get from the bike path across lower Manhattan to hit more pedestrians on the Brooklyn Bridge, Tyree said. He even considered displaying ISIS flags on the truck but decided against it, authorities said. John Miller, deputy New York police commissioner for intelligence, said Saipov “appears to
AP
NEW YORK CITY Federal prosecutors brought terrorism charges Wednesday against the Uzbek immigrant accused in the truck rampage that killed eight people, saying he was spurred to attack by the Islamic State group’s online calls to action and picked Halloween because he knew more people would be out on the streets. The charges against 29-yearold Sayfullo Saipov could bring the death penalty. Even as he lay wounded in the hospital from police gunfire, Saipov asked to display the ISIS flag in his room and said “he felt good about what he had done,” prosecutors said in court papers. Saipov was brought to court in a wheelchair to face the charges. Meanwhile, the FBI said it wanted to question a second Uzbek — 32-year-old Mukhammadzoir Kadirov — and had found him. Saipov, accused of driving the rented Home Depot pickup truck that barreled along a bike path near the World Trade Center memorial Tuesday, was charged with providing material support to a terrorist group and committing violence and destruction of motor vehicles, resulting in death. In addition to those killed, 12 people were injured. Nine remained hospitalized in serious or critical condition. Saipov’s lawyers did not immediately respond for comment. Prosecutors said Saipov had 90 videos and 3,800 photos on one of his two cellphones, many of them ISIS-related pieces of propaganda, including images of prisoners being beheaded, shot or run over by a tank.

5 friends from Argentina killed in attack NEW YORK CITY The childhood friends from Argentina had been planning the trip to New York City for years. The men all hailed from Rosario — Argentina’s third-largest city. As teenagers, they had bonded in the halls and classrooms of the Instituto Politecnico, a technical high school in Rosario, and graduated together in 1987. Through the decades, they remained close friends. And on Saturday, eight of the former classmates gathered to fly to the U.S. to celebrate their 30th graduation anniversary. They were in their late 40s
now, firmly in the realm of middle age. But as they posed for a photograph just before their departure, the old friends slung their arms over one another and grinned like school kids. They donned matching white T-shirts emblazoned with the same word: “LIBRE.” Free. It is unclear when exactly they arrived in New York; they had planned to stop in Boston, to meet up with another former classmate. But what is certain is that on Tuesday — a beautiful, brisk fall afternoon in Manhattan — the men rode bicycles along a bike path flanking the Hudson River. As they pedaled along the West Side Highway, a white rented Home Depot truck turned onto the path as well. The truck would soon plow into a crowd of pedestrians and cyclists, killing at

3 THINGS TO WATCH
Trap game for Buffalo
BARRY SVRLUGA | THE WASHINGTON POST
Who wants Kirk? Trade takes 49ers out of the running While the NFL’s collective head spun Monday night, isn’t it reasonable to think a certain quarterback in Ashburn looked at the news and said, “Um, Kyle . . . What about me?” The 49ers got their quarterback for the future Monday when they sent the Patriots a second-round pick for Jimmy Garoppolo, but the move has ramifications well beyond Boston and the Bay Area. “Jimmy is a player we have researched extensively since Kyle and I joined the 49ers,” general manager John Lynch said in the team’s statement. “Kyle,” in this case, is 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan — the former offensive coordinator of the Redskins. Because the dominant NFL storyline in Washington is Cousins’ impending free agency — and whether he’s worth the gazillion dollars it’ll take to retain him — the trade has an impact here. Lynch and Shanahan chose Garoppolo, a career backup who has completed just 63 total passes, over a shot at Cousins, who’s thrown 85 TD passes and is in his third full year as a starter. In the popular parlor game of “Where Will Kirk End Up?” San Francisco has toggled with the Los Angeles Rams as the leading destination because of
old ties to Cousins. When Shanahan was the offensive coordinator under his father Mike, Washington traded up to select Robert Griffin III in the 2012 draft — but then shrewdly spent a fourth-round pick on Cousins. “Kyle believed in me when it was just potential; there was no production,” Cousins told reporters prior to the 49ers’ visit to Washington in October. Now, Shanahan appears to have applied that belief to another quarterback. The 49ers looked at Cousins’ much more complete body of work — he’s gone 22-25-1 in 48 starts — and chose to place their time and money elsewhere. It’s important to note that Garoppolo’s rookie deal expires this season. He turns 26 today and is more than three years younger than Cousins, so he comes with more financial wiggle room. And now the 49ers have spent a secondround pick on him. If he even gets to play this year, Garoppolo could throw 20 interceptions and zero touchdowns, and the Niners would still probably try to work out a long-term deal with him or place the franchise tag on him to punt the decision down the road — a situation with which Cousins is all too familiar. So say the trade takes San Francisco out of the Cousins picture. He would, naturally,

Slow integration On Wednesday, 49ers.com reported that Kyle Shanahan will make new quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo active Sunday, but Shanahan “can’t promise” that Garoppolo will play this year. Shanahan said he wants to give Garoppolo time to learn the scheme and set him up for success, adding that they didn’t trade for him to “save our season.” (EXPRESS)
look next to the Rams, coached by his former offensive coordinator Sean McVay. Just a year-and-a-half ago, the Rams — not on McVay’s watch — selected Jared Goff with the first overall pick in
the draft. The Rams are 5-2 with Goff as the starter this year. If they make the playoffs and Washington sits home, why would the Rams want to spend nine figures on a new quarterback when the incumbent is doing just fine? The Jets, Browns, Jaguars, Broncos and Cardinals could all still be interested in Cousins next year. Oh, and Washington. The coach who believed in Cousins before he produced has moved on to someone else. His options are out there. They just might not be those we expected.

Challenging matchups
Although the Capitals exploded for five goals in a win at Edmonton on Saturday, getting consistent offensive production has been a challenge. Washington has been held to two goals or fewer in five of their past seven games and failed to score a power-play goal in six of those games. Alex Ovechkin has gone eight straight games without an even-strength goal. The loss of Andre Burakovsky and Brett Connolly to injuries has hurt secondary scoring.
No. 1 defenseman Matt Niskanen is eligible to return from an upper-body injury as early as Tuesday, but he hasn’t returned to practice, so he could be out longer. John Carlson (27:00 time-on-ice per game) and Brooks Orpik (22:16) have done the heavy lifting with Niskanen out, but rookies Madison Bowey and Christian Djoos continue to progress. Djoos played a 17:25 last week in Vancouver. Bowey got his first three NHL points on the Caps’ trip to Western Canada.
Through their first 12 games, the Capitals have allowed the first goal a league-high nine times. They’ve fallen behind 1-0 in each of their past seven games, with a 2-5-0 record in that stretch. In their latest home game, the Capitals trailed the Panthers 2-0 by the end of the first period, and forward Tom Wilson said the team came out flat. The Capitals have led for just 23 minutes, 29 seconds of the more than 420 minutes in those seven games.
The Islanders (7-4-1) visit tonight on a roll. John Tavares entered Wednesday second in the NHL with 11 goals, including eight in his past four games. The Isles won five of their last six and ranked fifth in scoring through Wednesday (3.7 goals per game). This month the Caps have consecutive games against Sidney Crosby and the Penguins (Nov. 10) and Connor McDavid and the Oilers (Nov. 12). The East-leading Lightning visit Nov. 24.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYOFF
Why Georgia ranks ahead of Alabama Georgia, Alabama, Notre Dame and Clemson were the top four teams in the initial top 25 rankings released by the College Football Playoff selection committee Tuesday night. Oklahoma, Ohio State and Penn State were next as the committee members let head-to-head results and strength of schedule be their guide. The final rankings that determine semifinalists for the playoff come out Dec. 3. Georgia and Alabama are both 8-0, but freshman QB Jake Fromm, right, and the Bulldogs have a slight edge because of a 20-19 win over the Irish on Sept. 9. Clemson’s six wins over teams with winning records, including Virginia Tech (13th) and Auburn (14th), outweighed a road loss to a Syracuse team that is 4-4. (AP)

Duke is preseason No. 1 for second straight year
Reports: Osweiler to start at QB for Broncos at Eagles
Duke was in good position to be ranked No. 1 in the AP poll before landing Marvin Bagley III. Once the nation’s top recruit decided to reclassify for this season, the Blue Devils were the media’s clear choice in the AP Top 25 released Wednesday. Duke got 33 of 65 first-place votes. Led by Bagley and senior Grayson Allen, Duke became the preseason No. 1 in back-to-back years and for the ninth time overall. No. 2 Michigan State received 13 first-place votes, No. 3 Arizona had 18 and No. 4 Kansas got one. Kentucky rounded out the top 5. Defending champion North Carolina is No. 9. (AP)
Broncos coach Vance Joseph told his players Wednesday that Brock Osweiler will start at quarterback over Trevor Siemian, two people familiar with the decision told AP. The move was first reported by KUSA-TV in Denver. The Broncos (3-4) visit NFL-leading Philadelphia (7-1) on Sunday. Siemian has two TD passes and eight interceptions during Denver’s 1-4 slump, including three picks Monday night in a 29-19 loss at Kansas City. Osweiler, Peyton Manning’s former backup, was 5-2 as a starter for Denver in 2015 before flopping in Houston last year and being traded to Cleveland and released. (AP)

D.C. restaurants test out the plant-based Impossible Burger
DINING Russell Smith, head chef at The Source, recently told his meat supplier that he wanted to get his hands on “Impossible meat.” His rep offered him wagyu and Kobe — both hard to find. “I was like, ‘No, no, the vegetarian stuff,’ ” Smith says. The meat alternative he sought — called Impossible
Burger — looks almost identical to ground beef. It’s bright red with bits of white “fat” marbled throughout. It browns and even “bleeds” when you squish it. But it’s made from plants. Produced by Silicon Valleybased Impossible Foods, Impossible Burger contains natural ingredients: wheat protein, coconut oil, potato protein and heme — a molecule found in high concentrations in the root of soy plants that gives the product a meatlike flavor and color.

Has meat finally met its match?
You won’t miss beef when Farmers & Distillers uses Impossible Burger.
Impossible Burger requires less land and water, and produces far less greenhouse gas emissions, than growing beef. But how does it taste? At The Source, Smith uses Impossible Burger in place of ground pork
in his pot stickers ($18 for six) and dan dan noodles ($26). The results are uneven. The dumplings have an overwhelmingly mushy texture, much more so than a real meat filling. The umami-packed flavor, though,
has a savory complexity you won’t find in tofu or seitan. Farmers Restaurant Group, which owns Founding Farmers, Farmers & Distillers and Farmers Fishers Bakers, serves Impossible Burger at all three venues. The F&D All American burger at Farmers & Distillers isn’t juicy or plump enough to convert meat lovers, but the results are downright delicious. The patties were charred, crunchy and greasy in a good way. Impossible Burger can be substituted in any of the menu’s burgers for a $1 surcharge. So, could this mark the end of meat? “I would eat a pork dumpl i ng over a n I mpos sible dumpling,” Smith says. “But I think the flavor is good enough to make an impact.” HOLLEY SIMMONS (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Since her appointment as director of the Hirshhorn in 2014, Melissa Chiu has presided over an astounding renaissance at the Smithsonian contemporary art museum. Thanks to popular and critically acclaimed exhibits like “Yayoi Kusama: Infinity Mirrors,” the Hirshhorn has seen a 200 percent increase in visitors since 2014, and the once anemic institution now expects to be among the most visited contemporary art museums in America this year — behind only the Whitney and the Museum of Modern Art. Just this week, the Hirshhorn celebrated the arrival of its millionth visitor of 2017, marking the first time in 30 years the museum has drawn 1 million guests in a calendar year. To keep the museum the attraction it is, Chiu, who lives in upper Northwest with her 7-year-old daughter, travels the world to network with donors and artists. If she ever does get a day off to hang out in D.C., she’s got about a million ideas. For me, it’s breakfast at Bakers & Baristas, which is over on Seventh [Street NW]. They do great coffee and their own pastries. Dolcezza also does amazing coffee; their cappuccino is great. They roast their own beans. I’m usually at Dolcezza in the afternoons on weekends, when I can get an affogato, which is their gelato and espresso. You can see how my days are punctuated by coffee.
Something I like to do in the winter is ice skate at the National Gallery of Art sculpture garden. I skated as a child, even though I’m from Australia and I know it’s counterintuitive — it was the only sport I was interested in. I actually competed when I was younger. I still have my skates from when I was 15. Often I do find myself here [at the Hirshhorn] on
I like to check in on local galleries and artist-run spaces like Transformer. That’s always a great place to see cutting-edge and local artists. The Katzen Center at American University also shows a lot of local artists. For dinner, I’d go to Rasika. I like the street food, the appetizers, the spinach — the fried spinach is amazing. Union Market is another great place to try some new food. It’s a casual environment in a different part of the city. I go there pretty often. I’m also often at the National Museum of American History and their Spark!Lab. My daughter loves that place. It’s great for kids, and it fosters invention and creativity and all that kind of stuff. It’s like a children’s makers space, but it’s all about new inventions and creativity. I think in Washington there are so many opportunities for learning in inventive ways. We also like going to the National Zoo. We got to go on a behind-the-scenes tour there and see how much goes into having a living collection like a zoo, a collection of animals that all require different care and feeding and treatment. I always look on and afterwards think about how easy contemporary art is to care for in comparison. (AS TOLD TO SADIE DINGFELDER)

Making it up as they go The musicians in the instrumental trio Wolf! don’t need a plan for their jams The sound of Scott Metzger’s Fender Telecaster defines much of Wolf!’s output.
MANDY PICHLER
MUSIC If you asked the members of the band Wolf! — a New York-based trio made up of guitarist Scott Metzger, bassist Jon Shaw and drummer Taylor Floreth — to walk onstage with no songs and no plan, they wouldn’t flinch. That’s because the band’s first gig played out almost exactly that way. About six years ago, Metzger, Shaw and Floreth had a reputation as musicians who could back various singer-songwriters whenever they needed a band. One night, the three were scheduled to play with a local singer at a club in Brooklyn. There was only one problem: The show was about to start and the singer wasn’t there. Rather than cancel the gig (the club wouldn’t let them), they took the stage without a vocalist and just started, well, jamming. “I remember Taylor said, ‘What are we gonna play?’ and I said, ‘I have no idea what we’re gonna play but we’re gonna play something,’ ” Metzger recalls. “So we walked out and we just made up a set of music for 90 minutes, and it went over great.” Refined versions of at least three songs from that night — the soulful “All Dressed Up (Nowhere to Go),” the Roy Buchanan-inspired “Chuckles” and the earworm-y “Pork ’N Slaw” — are still in the instrumental band’s repertoire today. “We all trust each other musically, but we’re also all coming from the same pool of liking music and there’s a lot of common ground there,” Metzger says, citing Booker T. and the MGs and the obscure ’70s instrumental band Stuff as major influences. Now, after gigging mostly in New York since that first fateful show, Wolf! is making a push outside of the city, starting with a concert opening for bluegrass band Cabinet at the 9:30 Club
“We walked out and we just made up a set of music for 90 minutes, and it went over great.” SCOTT METZGER, guitarist for Wolf!,
on the band’s impromptu first show
on Friday. “We’re trying to act like g row n-ups, fi na l ly,” says Metzger, 40. “And get out of the city more.” Wolf!’s two albums — 2015’s
self-titled set and last year’s “1800-WOLF!” — feature short instrumentals that fuse surf rock, jazz and funk. In concert, the band opens up those compositions, deconstructing them and improvising around the main themes. The clean tone from Metzger’s Fender Telecaster is key to the band’s sound — he’s doing most of the work when it comes to the melodies and the soloing — but Wolf! functions as a cohesive unit. “We’ve been talking a lot more lately about the old Sonny Rollins trios, which were just bass,
drums and saxophone,” Metzger says. “This was a really groundbreaking thing at the time, when he stopped using a piano. It was just three guys and everyone had to get really involved. Everybody had to be putting musical ideas out: the drummer, the bass player and the melodic instrument. If there’s just three of you and you’re playing 21 /2 hours, you can’t just be a drummer sitting back there keeping time and a guitar player soloing all night.” When it comes to writing songs, it’s Metzger — who has backed Anders Osborne and Amy Helm and has played in such bands as Joe Russo’s Almost Dead and RANA — who tends to start that musical conversation. “I’m always sort of collecting ideas on my own and recording little demos — 30-second snippets of ideas — and I’ll bring those [to the] studio,” he says. “If anyone is feeling one of them, we’ll look into it and then some become songs and some of them become things that never happen again.” The band is currently working on tracks for a third album. “It’s certainly a similar vein — it may be a little bit smarter, maybe, a little bit more arranged,” he says, comparing the sound to the first two albums. “I think the looseness is always gonna be there because that’s the fun of [our music], and that’s what lets it breathe and sort of be a living thing.” Metzger and bandmate Shaw can sing (Metzger occasionally covers The Band’s “Ophelia” during live sets) but he doesn’t see Wolf! ever turning into a band with lyrics. “That’s not the spirit of Wolf!,” Metzger says. “Wolf! is an instrumental thing.” RUDI GREENBERG (EXPRESS)

Forget your multimillion-dollar blockbusters that take years to shoot. Real to Reel, an event put on by Story District and DC Shorts, brings filmmakers and storytellers together to shoot a movie quickly. REALLY quickly. On Friday, eight storytellers will present their stories in live performances. Teams of filmmakers will each be assigned one of the stories, and they’ll have five days to write, shoot and edit a film based on the tale. On Nov. 10, the films will be screened, the audience will vote and the winning team will walk away with $2,000. Which should just about cover the coffee bill from those five days of moviemaking.

No time for the anger Tori Amos opened up and the songs poured in for ‘Native Invader’ “Even though there are songs that are looking at issues, the record itself didn’t want to be an angry reflection.” who were saying, ‘Look, my friend is consumed with the news cycle to the point where I’ve lost my friend,’ ” Amos says of the post-election mood. “ ‘They used to be creative and could talk about what was going on in the world, but now they’re so angry I can’t find my friend.’ I needed to have a word with myself and not allow that to happen.’” The Muses were on board with that attitude. “There was a real message that the songs were being held back from me,” Amos says. “They came in a deluge, like a sonic tsunami, once I realized I couldn’t hold the energy that was coming if I were in a reactive, hostile state. The songs started to come in droves because I could
hold them.” Many of the album’s songs touch explicitly on climate change. “Up the Creek” includes the lyric “Good Lord willing and the creek don’t rise,” a phrase Amos heard from her grandfather and now uses to exhort people to “arm against those climate blind”; “Bats,” about animals prophesying their betrayal by humans; and album closer “Mary’s Eyes,” about a woman who, like Amos’ mother, can no longer speak. It’s easy to imagine the woman as a stand-in for a silent, suffering Earth. Still, the overall tone of “Native Invader” isn’t one of despair. “Even though there are songs that are looking at issues, the record itself didn’t want to be an angry reflection because there was so much anger” in the world, she says. “So [I was] pushed to find beauty.” Even when it was hidden in a handful of wet lettuce.

MUSIC Tori Amos brings up the Muses like they’re friends of hers. And, like any friends, they sometimes show up at inopportune moments. “When the stars align and the Muses are with you and you’re open enough to hearing them, all of a sudden the lyrics, the melody, the chord structure, it’s just dropping down as I’m washing the lettuce,” the pianoplaying singer-songwriter says. “And I think, ‘Really? Really? Right now?’ The worst is when it happens on date night.” The latest piece to come dropping down for Amos is “Native Invader,” the D.C. native’s 15th studio album. She landed on the title during a 2016 trip she took to the Great Smoky Mountains to learn about her grandfather, who came from the area. The songs on the album came later, after two major events — one political, one personal. The first was the 2016 presidential election. The second was a stroke her mother suffered this past January. “I was hearing [from] people

‘Mean Girls’ means business Tina Fey and the team behind the new musical aren’t messing around
The worst people you’ll ever meet are the Plastics, played, from left, by Ashley Park (Gretchen), Taylor Louderman (Regina) and Kate Rockwell (Karen).
Michaels — the “SNL” producer and her mentor — to produce the “Mean Girls” movie. And it was Michaels to whom Fey turned when she and Richmond decided to pursue a musical version of the film. With two girls of their own, now 12 and 6, they saw the commercial potential for this story on Broadway. “It had solid characters and situations and timely issues,” Richmond says. “We have girls now, and I see where this kind of property would mean more than it did 10 years ago. At least in our world.” Michaels’ Broadway producing credits were limited to solo comedy shows, but he still signed on for one of the musical’s lead producing roles. “Tina has as good and as tough an eye as anyone,” Michaels says. “I’ll go with her anywhere. There is no one I have a higher regard for.” In setting out to write the show, Fey and Richmond sought out
JOAN MARCUS PHOTOS
STAGE At 47, with a shelf full of Emmys for “30 Rock” and “Saturday Night Live” to her name, Tina Fey is making her Broadway debut. Or rather, her pre-Broadway debut. Fey’s musical adaptation of her 2004 comedy “Mean Girls” began its tryout run this week at the National Theatre ahead of its scheduled Broadway opening in April. Along with her husband, Jeff Richmond, a longtime collaborator who composed the music, Nell Benjamin (“Legally Blonde: The Musical”), who wrote the lyrics, and director-choreographer Casey Nicholaw (“The Book of Mormon”), Fey is attempting a feat that turns out to be a lot harder than it may sound: taking a movie people love and transforming it into a musical people will pay a hefty sum to see. And there’s no telling whether the fans who made “Mean Girls” a sensation more than a decade ago will post positive comments online about this venture — or consign it to the fraying pages of their old high school Burn Books. But there are reasons to be hopeful, starting with Fey, who exhibits a levelheadedness about an enterprise whose cost has been speculated to be in the neighborhood of $15 million. (The show won’t divulge its price tag.) “I feel like I know what I know, I know what I don’t know, and the one thing I know that the four of us have that’s very strong, is work ethic,” Fey says of the creative team. “And willingness to learn, and absence of rigidity. And all we can do is just keep working and checking and being vigilant and feel like we’re doing the best version we can.” It was the trust he had in Fey’s instincts that persuaded Lorne

Benjamin, having admired her work on “Legally Blonde.” They immediately knew she was a good fit because she took their high school-set story of adolescent longing and catfighting seriously. One of the very first songs
Benjamin submitted, “Stupid With Love,” was a hit with Fey and Richmond and made it into the show. “An important part of it was to take these characters seriously at their core,” Fey says. “These
are tiny struggles that they go through, right? They’re not Joan of Arc. But it’s not camp. It has to be taken seriously, from all their different points of view.” The movie, with its daggersharp awareness of the tribal

“My favorite thing was hearing how each character has a different sound. … They wanted to make sure everybody was distinct.”
Clockwise from top left, “Mean Girls” director Casey Nicholaw, lyricist Nell Benjamin, composer Jeff Richmond and writer Tina Fey.
High school musical Director Casey Nicholaw doesn’t want everything to look too perfect onstage.

Nicholaw hopes it appears to an onlooker like a highly polished version of what the members of the high school drama club would be expected to do on performance night. P.M.
divisions of high school society, was several cuts above other flicks in the adolescent-comedy genre. Inspired by Rosalind Wiseman’s 2002 book “Queen Bees and Wannabes,” Fey devised the story of new girl Cady’s struggles in the suburban blackboard jungle after leaving the African savannah. With an attraction to an irresistible boy thrown in for good measure, Cady’s morality tale is classic devil-on-one-shoulder, angel-on-the-other, concerning whether Cady is going to fall in with Regina’s snarky clique, the Plastics, or stay true to misfits Janis and Damian. The stage version, with a pop score and an update to the Snapchat world of 2017, remains
faithful to the movie’s plot, which Fey says was an advantage in writing her first musical. “The nice thing about adaptation is you do know where you have to get to,” she says. Much debate occurred over which movie moments an audience would expect to see onstage, though ultimately the work itself drove them to the answers. “If you’re entertaining people,” Nicholaw notes, “they’re not going to know until they go home what [from the movie] was in there and wasn’t there.” The opening production number, “Wild Life,” which provides Cady’s backstory and the transition from Africa to America, includes some funny Broadway references and an introduction to the musical’s comic style. As Fey describes it, “I wanted it to move with the fluidity of a really great improv show.” “I feel like the book is so fun and so strong, that the songs are in support of that, and not shining above it,” Richmond says. “I really do believe that. It’s a rea lly funny book.” PETER MARKS (THE WASHINGTON POST)

the most mundane topics interesting through an unexpected turn of phrase, a weird vocal tic or a clever joke. Barnett says the two bonded over simple things at first: “Music, silliness and mutual friends.” That grew into the nine-song album “Lotta Sea Lice,” for which they each covered one of the other’s songs and collaborated on five new originals and two covers. In the midst of the duo’s tour behind the LP, Vile and Barnett discussed their still-budding friendship. RUDI GREENBERG (EXPRESS) The Anthem, 901 Wharf St. SW; Tue., 8 p.m., $46-$76.
Why do you think you two work so well together? Courtney Barnett: I’ve always found Kurt’s phrasing and a lot of the way he says stuff funny. Some of it can be a little bit dark and I just find it funny when it’s said in an interesting, kind of roundabout way.
Kurt Vile: Yeah, I like to laugh at dark things. What surprised you each the most about the other? Vile: I guess what surprised me, but I hoped it would happen anyway, was how quickly we all of a sudden turned this corner and
had a whole album. Barnett: It’s a nice surprise how well we got on and we became such good friends. Kurt is such a nice person, even though he pretends not to be. Vile: Some people think [I’m not nice] because they don’t know that everything I say is the

And what was it like for you, Kurt, when you heard Courtney singing a new take on your song “Peeping Tom?” Vile: It was awesome. I literally LOLed because I thought it was in a higher key but she’s just singing an octave up, so she’s singing it higher and it’s a little bit slower and it really floats. I thought it was beautiful right away. I was listening to it on a s---ty Bluetooth speaker in Hawaii with my family and I liked it so much I laughed. I wasn’t expecting it. It’s very respectful in a way, not that I even demand respect. Barnett: I put a lot of love into it. How has working with the other one changed each of your views on music? Vile: Every time I play with somebody, your perspective gets a little extended. It always rounds you out a little more in some way. Barnett: I’m kinda the same, just really open to all these different people and being with Kurt musically. The recording process and this tour is so much fun. It’s been a really big deal for me, so I’m really grateful for it. Vile: Me too. It will be weird to go back to my regular band. It sounds like you’ve both gotten a lot out of this. Barnett: It’s just been a beautiful — I don’t even know how to describe it — it’s been a really great experience. Vile: Maybe when I go back to my regular band I won’t get as stressed out about things. Maybe it’s like the perfect antidote because you kinda went to this other galaxy. We’ll see. Ask me that again when I’m back.

It was a long five years between Grizzly Bear’s fourth album, “Shields,” and this year’s “Painted Ruins.” But given the band’s penchant for patient, enveloping songs that tend to grow stronger with repeated listens, the wait made sense. The new album doesn’t so much switch up Grizzly Bear’s ethereal, often orchestral pop-rock sound as it does move it forward. This may be the biggest-sounding album yet from the formerly Brooklyn-based band, though there are still plenty of quiet, contemplative moments.

That’s what she did on her one-two punch of 2016 highlights, “EARS” and “Sunergy,” and then again on last month’s “The Kid.” Smith’s new album explores the birth-to-death life cycle, from the skittering genesis of “I Am a Thought” to the soothing eulogy “To Feel Your Best.” DC9, 1940 Ninth St. NW;
Oteil & Friends Fillmore, 8656 Colesville Road, Silver Spring; Mon., 8 p.m., $27.50
Bassist Oteil Burbridge has mostly been a sideman in recent years — be it in the Allman Brothers Band or Dead & Company — but he’s finally stepping out on his own with “Water in the Desert,” his first album in more than a decade. To celebrate the album, which dropped last week, Burbridge assembled some of his friends, old and new, to play the new songs, covers and more. At the Fillmore, Burbridge will be joined by a cast that includes John Kadlecik, Alfreda Gerald, Eric Krasno, Jay Lane, Weedie Braimah and a yet-to-be-announced special guest on keys.

‘Top Girls’ Stop us if you’ve heard it: Five women walk into a London dinner party during the Thatcher years. One is a transvestite pope, one is a nun who was formerly a courtesan, one is an adventurer, one is a Chaucer character and one had her charge into hell painted by Bruegel. Such is the plot of “Top Girls,” a play by Caryl Churchill with themes of family, feminism and power. At the center is a question: Is adopting the worst traits of the worst men the only way feminism
can succeed? Keegan Theatre, 1742 Church St. NW; Sat. through Dec. 2, $35-$45.

JD McPherson: Before recording “Undivided Heart & Soul,” JD McPherson and his family moved from Oklahoma to Nashville. The city’s influence is all over the album, but that doesn’t mean it’s twangy. Instead, McPherson’s roots rock leans more bluesy (think: fellow Nashville denizens Jack White or Dan Auerbach) and includes collaborations with The Raconteurs’ Jack Lawrence, Parker Millsap, Lucius, and Nicole Atkins. Atkins will also open for McPherson at the Black Cat on Saturday .

The nuns of the Sisters of Blessed Rose gather to confess their sins in “Novitiate.”
Relationship advice ... from a 1960s convent? Director Margaret Betts explores women’s goals for love with ‘Novitiate’ FILM “Novitiate” is a love story about a girl in a relationship with a guy who just doesn’t seem to be paying much attention to her. It’s a fairly typical tale, except the girl is a 17-year-old nun in training and the guy is God. In the drama, out Friday, Cathleen (Margaret Qualley) enters the convent of the Sisters of Blessed Rose in 1964. She begins her journey toward becoming a nun with a one-year stint as a postulant, getting used to the daily routine of the convent. That’s followed by two years as a novitiate, when she is expected to make herself worthy of the habit. Overseeing her journey is the Reverend Mother (Melissa Leo), who rules her convent with a terrifying power. For writer-director Margaret Betts, “Novitiate” isn’t specifically about nuns — it’s about women in general, both in the
1960s and today. “It’s about how women love and t h e w ay t h ey love,” says Betts, who won the Betts Breakthrough Director award at this year’s Sundance Film Festival, where the film premiered. “I am an adult, living in New York, dating, and I see the same thing with a lot of my girlfriends, which is they meet somebody and it’s like, ‘How do I make him or her love me back?’ Myself and all my contemporary girlfriends living in this sophisticated city are putting ourselves in the exact same patterns that these 17-year-olds are in the 1950s and ’60s, locked in a convent.” Much of “Novitiate,” Betts’ first feature film, is about Cathleen and her fellow hopefuls trying to figure out their role in a relationship they expect to last a lifetime. There are moments of joy, as when they move from being postulants to novitiates in a “wedding” ceremony that includes long white dresses and
wedding rings, symbolizing their traditional role as brides of Christ. Still, Cathleen hungers for a more intimate, real connection (the women are discouraged from forging friendships so they can better focus on religious life), and tries to earn that intimacy by crawling on the floor, whipping herself and forgoing eating in an effort to be worthy of the God she’s pledged her life to. “Why would you make it so tortuous and so hard?” Betts says. “They create this person who’s like, ‘Unless you crawl across the floor 15 times I’m not into it.’ You have two years to make God love you — if you’re good enough.” In essence, the nuns (with the encouragement of the Church, Betts says) have created a male figure that is emotionally unavailable, the heavenly equivalent of the guy who doesn’t respond to texts. “Why aren’t you asking, ‘Is this person deserving of my love?’ ” Betts says. It’s a question she wants to echo outside of the film’s convent walls and into modern times. KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS)

More sexual misconduct claims arise Hollywood’s widening sexual harassment crisis is bringing forth more allegations against industry notables by both women and men. Here are some updates. (EXPRESS/AP) Brett Ratner A Los Angeles Times story published Wednesday has accounts by six women, including actress Olivia Munn, accusing the prominent director of sexual harassment or assault. Ratner’s attorney said in a statement he “vehemently denies the outrageous” allegations.
Dustin Hoffman Writer Anna Graham Hunter alleged in a Hollywood Reporter column that he groped her on the set of the TV movie “Death of a Salesman” in 1985, when she was 17. Hoffman, 80, apologized, saying “it is not reflective of who I am.”
Kevin Spacey Mexican actor Robert Cavazos wrote Tuesday on Facebook that Spacey groped him against his will at the bar of London’s Old Vic theater. In a Radar Online story Wednesday, filmmaker Tony Montana accused Spacey of groping him in L.A.
Jeremy Piven CBS on Tuesday said it’s “looking into” a claim by actress Ariane Bellamar that the actor groped her twice. Piven, who is on the CBS series “Wisdom of the Crowd,” said in a statement he “unequivocally” denies the “appalling allegations.”

not likely to respond all that well to criticism today. It’s best, perhaps, to keep certain doings under wraps for now.
TODAY: A light but steady wind from the south continues to bring in warmer air. So with partly sunny skies, highs should be about 10 degrees warmer than Wednesday, in the upper 60s to low 70s. Winds remain light from the south tonight, which keeps us on the mild side. Lows range in the 50s under partly cloudy skies.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) You are feeling quite optimistic, but someone you know balances you out by offering a bleaker outlook. Who is accurate? LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) The stance you’ve taken regarding something “official” may not be the best choice for you right now. Consider approaching the problem another way.

“Really, people? … Did anyone go over this with George Clooney or Brad [Pitt] before their 50th birthdays?”
Lady Gaga is reportedly engaged to her boyfriend, Christian Carino. A source revealed to Us Weekly that the pop superstar and the talent agent got engaged over the summer after Carino asked Gaga’s father for permission. The insider added that the two aren’t planning a wedding just yet, as they are both focused on Gaga’s health. (The singer postponed the European leg of her tour due to fibromyalgia, a chronic pain disorder.) Gaga and Carino have been dating since at least February, when they were first spotted kissing at the Super Bowl, where Gaga performed. (EXPRESS)
