Probably A Reason

University System of Georgia

There was a minor flap recently over a quote in a speech by the university system chancellor to the effect that if you can’t find a job and you majored in drama, there’s a probably a reason. The quote gave the impression that the chancellor doesn’t think a well rounded education has any value in what is euphemistically called “today’s economy,� but of course he does. The chancellor no doubt both appreciates the value of a well rounded education and the fact that most people go to college hoping to enhance their value in the job market. And, as a letter-writer pointed out in response to the chancellor, drama—in the form of the film industry—is indeed a big business in Georgia with lots of jobs. The chancellor’s first degree was in political science. He probably knows, but can’t afford to say, that it really doesn’t matter very much what you major in if you’re lucky enough to go to college. The truth is, you can’t go wrong. The truth also is that you can’t predict what today’s economy is going to do to you. The more you specialize, the greater your chances of making yourself obsolete. Let’s say you are preparing yourself for the field of mortuary science. (I know, but it’s only a matter of time. You can get a college degree in real estate and insurance and hotel management: the funeral profession has got to be poised to move up to academic status Chancellor Hank Huckaby soon.) But if you load your curriculum with embalming credits and then can’t find a job as an undertaker, you’re going to be limited in the job market as well as having some gaps in your general level of education. Embalming is not going to travel well. Even so, in earning your mortuary science degree, you will have learned how to learn; you will have acquired some mental discipline, time management and at least some awareness of ideas and other people. If you hang in there long enough to get a degree, it doesn’t really matter what it’s in. By the same token, the broader your degree and the wider your skill-set, the greater the chance that you’ll have something to offer that an employer needs—still assuming there are no vacancies in your chosen field of funeral management. And that’s what it all comes down to, anyway: management, and first of all, managing yourself. No kidding. And that’s the hardest part, right? If you can manage to get up in the morning and get to work on time and get everything done right and manage not to stay up too late drinking so that you can repeat it all the next day, then you’ll make a great worker. You’ll be even better if you have the ability to learn new stuff, which is another thing about that well rounded education. You didn’t really want to learn about those Shakespeare sonnets, and you were sure they’d never help you get a job, but learning them did teach you to grasp something unfamiliar and even introduced you to alien concepts you never would have got off TV, such as “love alters not when it alteration finds� and other stuff that might even improve your ability to understand “Mad Men.� The late, great Gamble Rogers was fond of saying, though he probably didn’t invent it: “Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making plans.� Don’t worry about your college major. Educate yourself. Then you’ll be able to learn whatever job comes along. I know a lot of people, for instance, who majored in music. None of them ever made a living from it, but they all did well, because they learned some real mental and physical discipline. And they have also had music with them their whole lives, as an added extra. The chancellor’s political science probably comes in handy, too. Pete McCommons editor@flagpole.com

Prince Avenue: Oh, yeah, and planning commissioners punted on the Prince Avenue corridor study. They tabled it for 90 days to refine the new CNE zoning category while strongly urging the county commission to fund a more comprehensive approach that includes transportation and safety. Auditor Out: The Athens-Clarke Commission essentially fired longtime county Auditor John Wolfe at its June 4 voting meeting. A majority of commissioners indicated they would not vote to renew Wolfe’s contract for another two years after his recent perfomance

review, Mayor Nancy Denson said. “I don’t think I can comment beyond that,” she said. Wolfe is one of four high-ranking county officials who report directly to the commission, along with Manager Alan Reddish, Municipal Court Judge Leslie Spornberger Jones and Attorney Bill Berryman. The other three were reappointed—Reddish and Berryman with substantial pay raises. Wolfe most recently audited the Athens Downtown Development Authority. While commissioner and ADDA board member Mike Hamby was pushing outgoing Executive Director Kathryn Lookofsky to clean up downtown, Wolfe absolved the ADDA of responsibility and put the blame for perceived odor and trash issues squarely on the commission for not properly funding the Solid Waste Department. The position will take “a month or two” to fill, Denson said. “One thing I want us to concentrate on is what we’re going to require of the next auditor,” she said. She and commissioners will discuss what they want from the position at a retreat tentatively scheduled for later this month, including the length of time it takes to turn in reports, the hours the auditor works and whether the auditor should bring up issues he or she wants to pursue. Wolfe took the high road, thanking the 60 commissioners and four mayors he’s served under for reappointing him 10 times. “It has

Montevideo came under fire for his outrageous salary ($189,000 at its peak, though later reduced) and allegedly manhandling a student journalist covering the walkout (no charges were filed). Chuck Reece, the spokesman for the nonprofit’s board of directors, credited Montevideo with keeping The Red & Black on sound financial footing for most of his 30 years at the helm. But he and the board both agreed that the paper needs new leadership in the digital era, Reece said.

Danny Sniff isn’t a fan of Selig Enterprises’ proposed downtown development. The University of Georgia’s chief architect—who owns the Flagpole building next door to the Selig site—agrees with critics who say it’s out of scale, architecturally bland and car-centric. Yet he stepped to the podium at the Athens-Clarke County Planning Commission meeting Thursday, June 6 to announce his support for approving the project. Sniff said that, while not perfect, the development was as good as it was going to get. ACC’s zoning code, he later explained, is not nimble enough to deal with citizen concerns. And so we wind up with developments that no one really likes that end up passing. “I think we need to tighten up our zoning rules so we can have the Athens we want,” Jerry Daniel told the planning commission. “This is not Atlanta. We don’t want to be Atlanta. But this is an Atlanta-style development.” It includes a Walmart’s worth of commercial space—102,000 square feet—375 student apartments with 990 bedrooms and 1,483 parking spaces in two decks that are, mercifully, hidden from view inside the six-story development. It will dwarf even the monolithic Classic Center. Yet none of that matters. Just a minor part of the development is up for consideration: 15 residential units, rather than the commercial space the zoning code requires on he groundfloor level. Selig wants to build the residential units on the ground floor along the future Firefly Trail and along narrow Wilkerson Street. And so Selig has us over a barrel. Except for that one tiny exception, everything else the Atlanta-based company wants to do, it can do without asking, and more. Attorney Mike Morris issued a veiled threat to the planning commission: deny or table this, and Selig will reconsider asking for a special use permit and build by right. That could mean the development that’s on the table now, with a few vacant storefronts added. Or it could mean something even bigger, with twice as many bedrooms. The parcel is almost 10 acres, and downtown zoning allows 200 bedrooms per acre. There are no regulations on parking. While expressing distaste for the project, planning commissioners said they had little choice but to approve the special use-request. So they did—unanimously. “We’re actually getting a better project and a few nifty perks we won’t get if we (turn it down),” chairman Paul Dellaria said. “Because they can build this by right. They don’t need us.” The mega-project now moves on to the county commission for a final vote Tuesday, July 2, where the outcome will probably be no different.

Bitchin’ Tesla. been truly an honor to serve the community,” he said. ACC will have another top position to fill, too. Fire Chief Iby George is quitting to start a fire science program at Athens Tech. Reddish will choose a replacement. Red & Dead Part Deux: After presiding over disastrous print cutbacks two years ago and a staff strike last year, Harry Montevideo is no longer the publisher of The Red & Black, the University of Georgia’s independent student newspaper. The paper made waves in 2011, when it reduced its print edition from five days a week to one and started focusing on online content. Last summer, the student staff walked off the job and made national news in response to a board member’s plan to run more positive stories and turn editorial control over to the

The board is writing a new strategic plan and simultaneously searching for a new publisher, Reece said. In the meantime, Advertising Director Natalie McClure is acting general manager. No matter what, Reece promised that The Red & Black will remain “an independent student voice” and a training ground for young journalists. The Electric Ride: Georgia Public Service Commissioner Tim Echols brought his Alternative Fueled Vehicles Roadshow to the Classic Center June 3. The event showcased electric Nissan Leafs and a Tesla Roadster, a school bus powered by propane, a Mercedes that runs on cooking oil and several vehicles that use compressed natural gas (CNG). The audience included Mayor Nancy Denson, Athens-Clarke County Transportation and

Public Works Director David Clark, Police Chief Jack Lumpkin and state Rep. Chuck Williams (R-Watkinsville). Echols himself used to drive a CNG car but sold it because the fuel isn’t available in Athens. “It wasn’t practical,” he said. Now, he fills up his state-issued Chevrolet Impala with E-85 (85 percent ethanol) gas in Conyers on the way to and from the Capitol. But he bemoaned the fact that many alternative fuels aren’t available in Athens. The PSC approved an Atlanta Gas Light plan in 2011 to build CNG stations across the state, but none are planned for Athens. “How can we be this progressive in this town and not have a CNG pump and not have an E-85 pump?” Echols asked. Solar Power: Echols also discussed a movement afoot on the PSC, the state’s utility regulators, to force Georgia Power to add solar to its energy profile. The company’s 20-year plan the PSC is voting on next month doesn’t include any solar, but PSC Chairman Lauren McDonald is pushing to add some. “If we can figure out how not to have a subsidy on solar, there is a very good chance I could support that,” Echols said. No subsidy may be needed. “In the past, solar just hasn’t been there economically, but prices have dropped by half over the past 18 months,” said Ted Terry, field coordinator for Atlanta-based Georgia Solar Utilities. The PSC recently voted to close two of four coal-fired boilers at Plant Branch in Milledgeville and will vote on closing the other two next month. Georgia Power is proposing an extensive and expensive greenfield environmental cleanup. Echols has another idea: clean it up to brownfield standards and turn the 1,900 acre property into a solar farm. Broun Rowndup: Ron Paul may have endorsed Rep. Paul Broun (R-Athens) for Senate, but his son, Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), isn’t Broun’s biggest fan. After a recent Silicon Valley speech, Rand Paul was asked how tech entrepreneurs can support Republicans, citing Broun’s comment that evolution and the Big Bang are “lies straight from the pit of Hell.” Rand Paul threw Broun under the bus. “Most Republicans live in this century, not two or three centuries ago,” he replied.

capitol impact Jekyll Island’s Fate School is out, vacations have started and visitors from across the country are driving to one of the state’s great coastal attractions, Jekyll Island. What will they see when they arrive? A barrier island where the marshes, dunes, beaches and sea turtle nesting areas that evoke Jekyll’s natural beauty are properly protected? Or will they encounter a beachfront jammed full of junky development like Panama City or Myrtle Beach? There is an interesting debate over which of those scenarios will play out for Jekyll Island—a debate that involves basic math. The Jekyll Island Authority, which oversees the management of the island, appointed a citizens task force as part of the process of revising a master plan for future development. A 1971 state law says developed acreage can comprise “not more than 35 percent of the land area of Jekyll Island which lies above water at mean high tide.” The authority contends that Jekyll covers 5,543 acres of land and is 32 percent developed, leaving 166 acres available for new development and construction. The task force, however, determined the island’s area to be just 3,817 acres because a large swath of marshlands cannot be built upon and should not be included in the calculation. They say that 38.6 percent of the island has already been developed. That was obviously not what the authority staff wanted to hear. It asked the attorney general’s office to rule that the task force recommendations did not comply with the state law establishing the 35 percent limit. Attorney General Sam Olens has not issued a response. “It is important to set the limit so that the Jekyll Island Authority can move forward with a long-term plan so that we know the parcels we’re intending to redevelop are in concert with that plan,” said Eric Garvey, the authority spokesman.

Environmentalists and conservation groups have sided with the task force conclusion that Jekyll Island has already exceeded its limit for development. It’s a safe bet that one or more of those organizations will sue the authority if it tries to expand the number of acres to be developed. “We’d prefer to stay out of court, but a lawsuit is one of the options we would consider,” said Stephanie Stuckey Benfield, a former state legislator who is executive director of the environmental law firm GreenLaw. No one is demanding that the authority terminate any current developments. Environmentalists note that there are numerous parcels of property, such as vacant hotel sites, already classified as developed that could be used for redevelopment. The state law is clear in how far development of Jekyll can go: 35 percent of the land that makes up the island. Where the law is not specific is in how you define what constitutes “land” and whether coastal marshes should be included. Normally, you would try to determine what the legislative intent was when the law was enacted. That’s not easy to do when you are dealing with measures that were debated more than 40 years ago. Mike Egan, an Atlanta attorney and a retired Republican lawmaker, was one of the legislators involved in drafting the law that limits Jekyll’s development. “I thought we made it clear in the act, but I guess that we did not,” Egan told Associated Press reporter Russ Bynum. “I just think that land is dry land, not marsh.” What Egan is saying seems to be a matter of common sense and simple logic. Perhaps the attorney general will come to that same conclusion, but he has been reluctant to say anything so far.

Tournament Showcases Athens Disc Golf Course

T

here’s a lot of plastic being thrown around Athens these days, and it’s not just credit cards. Disc golf, or Frisbee golf, is a casual sport that’s seriously growing in the Classic City. Saturday, June 15, 72 recreational, amateur and professional players will descend on Sandy Creek Park when Athens hosts its first Professional Disc Golf Association tournament since 2009. The Sandy Creek Sling is presented by Terrapin Beer Co. Athens has hosted a number of highly regarded tournaments that disc golfers worldwide still talk about. Saturday’s tournament is part of the Georgia Super Six Series, Georgia’s longest running and largest statewide disc golf series. It’s also an opportunity to play Sandy Creek that disc golfers have long looked forward to. “I decided to have a tournament to give players in the local community the chance to participate in a PDGA tournament and as a platform to showcase Sandy Creek Park to area players,� says tournament director Ryan Adams. Athenians are also using the tournament as a platform to showcase Athens to the players and their friends and families. As part of the title sponsorship, Terrapin, which has two baskets on its patio for employees to play disc golf, is inviting all the players to the brewery after the tournament for some classic Athens relaxation. Several other local businesses are sponsoring tees at the event, encouraging the players and their companions to make an Athens weekend of playing at Sandy Creek and enjoying all the restaurants, shops and activities when they’re not on the course. And for some players, it’s about a little local rivalry. “It’s nice to make the Atlanta players come to us for once and enjoy our great course at Sandy Creek Park,� says Jason Hartley, captain of the UGA disc golf team. He’ll play his 18th tournament on Saturday at Sandy Creek. In previous years, disc golf in Athens was played primarily by UGA students and small groups in town. Now, more Athenians are hitting the courses, from casual play with family and friends to recreational nights at Sandy Creek Park to up-and-coming players making a showing at out-of-town tournaments. “We continue to expand our disc selection,� says Michael Costello, regional marketing specialist of Academy Sports and Outdoors, which has sponsored every disc golf event at Sandy Creek this year. “I think in general we’ve seen an increased popularity in the sport, as it appeals to a wide audience.� It’s played on designated disc golf courses where the “holes� are above-ground baskets that catch discs thrown from as far as 400 feet away. The drivers, mid-rangers and putters are the discs themselves. Like ball golf, the goal is to hit the basket in as few strokes as possible.

Founded in California in the 1970s by the modern inventor of the Frisbee, “Steady� Ed Headrick, the sport of disc golf has grown worldwide. The PDGA, based outside of Augusta, has over 57,000 registered members from more than 20 countries. The ease of the sport combined with its affordability—a disc can be purchased for less than $10, and most courses are less than $3—has made it popular for all ages and walks of life. “Remember Othello, the board game?� asks Doug Porter, one of the designers of the Sandy Creek course. “Their slogan was ‘a minute to learn, a lifetime to master.’ That’s disc golf.� Fortunately, most Athenians find they don’t have to master disc golf to have fun with it. In March, members of the Athens Disc Golf Club—open to anyone who plays disc golf in Athens—launched a recreational doubles night. Casual disc golfers and people who want to learn how to play meet at Sandy Creek on Tuesdays at 6 p.m. for the opportunity to hang out with new people and enjoy an evening at the park. One mom showed up on the first night to secretly brush up on the sport so she could try to keep up with her son. Local artist Lauren Williamson, who’ll be making her tournament debut on Saturday, brings her dog Dylan, a favorite among the disc golfers, to the course to find her discs. One night, a foursome got to witness Jason Hartley throw an ace (a hole in one). “Straight down the middle with a touch of fade right into the chains,� says Hartley. “I believe I said something like, ‘That’s an ace!’ halfway there or so.� Hartley takes the sport more seriously than the recreational set, having played 37 courses in six states in just over three years. After Saturday’s tournament, he’ll travel to Charlotte to play the Charlotte Amateur Championships. He also joined four other Athens players at the PDGA’s Hall of Fame Classic last month outside of Augusta. “School is my current priority, but disc golf is a close second,� Hartley says. Fellow Athens disc golfer Bryan Huff took second place in the Amateur Advanced Men’s division at the Hall of Fame Classic, missing first place by two strokes in a field of 70. Competing in the pro division at Saturday’s tournament, Huff’s the only Athens player invited to next week’s inaugural Georgia Team Invitational in Lula, playing as part of an Atlanta team that will battle Chattanooga, Birmingham and Huntsville teams. The Athens Disc Golf Club intends to increase the number of eligible quality players, so that a full Athens team will be invited to battle it out in the future. But, you know, in a casual way.

couldn’t have been cooler. Beginning with photographs and short blurbs of Taylor’s early life, “Fashion Independent” includes Taylor’s own sketches and even a few architectural drawings of her iconic home in Vail, CO. Just past the knee-high ski boots drenched in ostrich feathers, the exhibit begins to take shape as a timeline represented by activities and designers. The originally white gallery walls are lined with everything from hats, shoes, purses, bows and gloves (with the right pointer finger exposed for shooting a gun). While Taylor believed these accessories were vital to a put-together look, the heart of the exhibit lies in the original pieces from couture designers such as Charles James, Cristobal Balenciaga, Madame Gres and Hubert de Givenchy. Each outfit is complete and always daring, pushing the balance between functionality, comfort and the aesthetic in clothing.

Athens Fashion

Mixes Up Media Nobody knows better how the arts collide in Athens than Community owner, clothing redesigner and cofounder of the Athens Fashion Collective Sanni Baumgaertner. Last month, five of the collective’s designers presented outfits inspired by the High Museum of Art’s Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera exhibit as part of its closing reception. Now, with a big AFC showcase currently in the works for fall, Baumgaertner is a busy woman, but she still makes time for Community Made, her house label of T-shirts designed by Athens music mainstays. Baumgaertner created Community Made with local writer and fashion knowall Amy Flurry to celebrate their city’s culture. “We really just love Athens,” Baumgaertner says. “We love the art scene and the music scene, and we really would like to support it in a way.” So they turned the local music scene into a design collective. GOAT frontman Don Chambers (Baumgaertner’s husband), Dream Boat’s Dan Donahue and songstress Madeline Adams contributed images such as a cassette tape player and a bubble-lettered Athens logo to the project. “We were supposed to choose a design that represented Athens for us,” Adams says. “To me, the Flicker bar is the kind of Athens institution I think of when I think of home. So I just chose to draw the Flicker piano.” More than musicians took part in the first edition of T-shirts, which was released last December. Nicholas Gould, of the Athens Cowboy Choir and video projectionist for of Montreal, created a geometric line exploration for his shirt, and Lou Kregel took a break from floral murals to add an old-school radio wave design to hers. “I like that really collaborative aspect of the project,” Baumgaertner says, “because I think everybody that is involved is excited about it, and at the same time also benefits from the involvement, since everybody’s getting exposure.” Baumgaertner, a musician herself, donated 10 percent of the line’s profits to Nuçi’s Space. “Supporting Nuçi’s Space at the same time feels really good,” she says. “They helped me out many times, and so it’s a little close to my heart to be able to give a little bit back.” In keeping with Community’s commitment to sustainability, Baumgaertner chose organic and recycled cotton from Alternative Apparel’s “Alternative Earth” collection for the shirts, which were printed in town at Satisfactory Print Shop. Baumgaertner says she hopes to release the next edition of shirts in August. Powerkompany, Sam Fogarino of Interpol and other musicians will lend their talents to celebrate the creative spirit of a town that will never outgrow a T-shirt. “Athens is such a young town,” Adams says. “Technically, it’s young, but there’s also a youthful spirit, I feel like, with the whole town. Its art, music and fashion have always kind of lived side by side.” Christy Bush

thought you were the best turned out woman I’d seen for many years,” former Vogue editor and institution Diana Vreeland wrote to Ann Bonfoey Taylor in a letter dated from 1971—and that’s the exact sentiment the new fashion exhibition at Georgia Museum of Art encapsulates. “Fashion Independent: The Original Style of Ann Bonfoey Taylor”—on display through Sunday, Sept. 15—guides visitors through the designer’s personal sensibility and illustrious history, one frock at a time. Ann Bonfoey Taylor—not to be confused with the Ann Taylor retail chain—epitomizes the American dream. She was born in 1910, and her resume came to include an impressive list of titles such as Olympic skier, championship tennis player, licensed pilot, bold skiwear designer, daring sportswoman and, of course, style icon. Her multi-faceted skill set

movie dope Some releases may not be showing locally this week. • indicates new review AFTER EARTH (PG-13) “Excruciatingly boring” sums up After Earth. Did you watch Castaway and think the film would be better with Jaden Smith substituting for Tom Hanks and Jaden’s papa, Will, for Wilson? Then enjoy this bland hunk of science fiction. After their spaceship crash lands, a father and son (the Smiths) are stranded on Earth, abandoned by humanity years earlier. Young Kitai must traverse this dangerous Eden if he is to save his father, a legendary soldier. Some critics have blamed Smith’s rumored Scientologist beliefs for this sluggish piece of antientertainment. Tom Cruise is a known Scientologist, and he still delivered a fantastic, if derivative, sci-fi spectacle in April’s Oblivion. . ART ROSENBAUM: MURAL IN PROGRESS The first night of AthFest’s film festival features Alan Flurry’s documentary about acclaimed local artist and musician Art Rosenbaum, who performs live prior to the screening. Rosenbaum is creating a mural on the University of Georgia campus about Georgia political history. (Ciné) THE BLING RING (R) Using their Internet savvy, a group of teenagers (Emma Watson, Katie Chang, Israel Broussard, Taissa Farmiga and Claire Julien) track celebrity whereabouts (victims include Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, Megan Fox, Rachel Bilson and Orlando Bloom) and rob their unoccupied homes. Sofia Coppola based her script on Nancy Jo’s Vanity Fair article detailing this wild and crazy true story. This teens gone wild flick looks like the perfect double-bill companion to Harmony Korine’s Spring Breakers. THE CROODS (PG) Despite its underwhelming trailers, The Croods stands out as one of the best non-Pixar animated family films released in the last few years. A family of cavemen— dad Grug (v. Nicolas Cage), mom Ugga (v. Catherine Keener), teen daughter Eep (v. Emma Stone), dumb son Thunk (v. Clarke Duke), feral baby Sandy and grandma (v. Cloris Leachman)—are forced on a cross-country road trip after their cave is destroyed by the impending “end of the world.” EPIC (PG) Epic, from Ice Age and Robots director Chris Wedge, is like Star Wars in a forest; wait, that would just be Return of the Jedi. Still, another

monomyth should be less exciting than this animated family film based on the William Joyce book, The Leafmen. Unbeknownst to humanity, the forests are protected by the Leafmen, who constantly do battle with the Boggans, led by Mandrake (v. Christoph Waltz). When M.K. (v. Amanda Seyfried) is magically transported to the world of the Leafmen, she must team up with wizened soldier Ronin (v. Colin Farrell) and young turk Nod (v. Josh Hutcherson) to ensure the survival of the forest. The movie does far too little to avoid Star Wars comparisons; it practically invites them. See bird racing (pod racing) and the two slugs who give off a distinct R2D2/C3PO sidekick vibe. EVIL DEAD (R) The remake of Sam Raimi’s cult classic puts five new young people through the horrific, maddening, limb-threatening paces. When will young people learn not to read from a book bound in human skin? What Evil Dead gets right is the massive amounts of blood poured upon its actors. Director Fede Alvarez also shows (borrows) the stylistic imagination of a young Raimi. Still, the importance of Bruce Campbell’s Ash was underestimated. FAST & FURIOUS 6 (PG-13) The unlikeliest blockbuster franchise of all-time has enough gas left in the tank for several more entries. Furious 6 puts Dominic “Dom” Toretta (Vin Diesel), Brian O’Conner (Paul Walker) and the rest on the heels of big bad Shaw (Luke Evans), as they seek to recover Letty (Michele Rodriguez). These movies keep improving under the direction of Justin Lin and screenwriter Chris Morgan. It’s arguable that Furious 6 is the best of the high gloss bunch. If a muscle car mag filled with bikini-covered boobs and chrome was adapted into a movie, this flick would be it. This live action comic book sags a little in the talky, plot-driven sections, but gets back on crazy course whenever the gang gets behind the wheel for another ridiculous car chase. G.I. JOE: RETALIATION (PG-13) G.I. Joe: Retaliation is everything that G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra was not. Mostly ignoring Stephen Sommers’ 2009 misfire, this franchise reboot introduces three new lead Joes: Roadblock (Dwayne Johnson), Lady Jaye (Adrianne Palicki) and my

childhood favorite, Flint (D.J. Cotrona). Featured Cobra players—Zartan (Jonathan Pryce), Storm Shadow (Byung-hun Lee) and Firefly (Ray Stevenson)—plot to break Cobra Commander from a super-secret prison. But the plot is inconsequential. G.I. Joe blows stuff up real good and has just the right amount of stupid smarts (and Bruce Willis) to be a nostalgic blast of action. THE GREAT GATSBY (PG-13) A creative, stylistic tour de force, the film starts off kinetic to the point of claustrophobia. The constant moving and zooming camera and non-stop edits choke the air out of the first act; the film just needs to stop and catch its breath for a moment. The film doesn’t stop its constant Charlestoning until Nick Carroway (Tobey Maguire) meets reclusive millionaire Jay Gatsby (Leonardo DiCaprio) at one of the latter’s renowned parties. Direct Baz Luhrmann’s always favored style over substance, and the Roaring ‘20s are a great place to indulge his whims.

The movie made me feel as if I’d stumbled upon a big budget training video for new Google employees. Sadly, most training videos are unintentionally funnier (just check out any edition of the Found Footage Festival for proof). Due to its still likable (if not bankable) stars and a laudably creative end credits sequence, The Internship leaves one feeling better about the movie than it deserves, being that it’s a two hour chore through which to sit. Were the movie the least bit funny— rather than a mere vehicle for Vaughn and Wilson to mug at the camera—and thirty minutes shorter, it might garner a mild recommendation for a lazy cable viewing. IRON MAN 3 (PG-13) Happily, Shane Black has taken over the Iron Man franchise from Jon Favreau, and it’s mostly a blast right out of 1987. Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) may be the rare superhero alter ego that is more interesting out of costume, but watching him investigate a mystery in Small Town, Tennessee (child sidekick in tow)

This new Prancercise workout is amazing! However, his hyperactive visualization fill his adaptation of Fitzgerald’s classic novel with the air of parody. The film often feels like a musical with the song-and-dance numbers cut out. THE HANGOVER PART III (R) If one’s main complaint about the second Hangover was that it was a mere narrative retread of the original with a geographical transplant, then The Hangover Part III has addressed your concern. Gone are the weddings, the hangovers and the amnesia. The Wolfpack—Phil (Bradley Cooper), Stu (Ed Helms) and Alan (Zach Galifianakis)—now find themselves charged with finding escapee Leslie Chow (Ken Jeong) by crime lord Marshall (John Goodman). Laughs are not as plentiful as in either of the first two movies, but the biggest problem with Part III is its lack of character. The script feels as if it were revamped for the Wolfpack, not written for them. Give writer-director Todd Phillips and crew credit for the old college try, but recapturing the comic freshness of the first Hangover once, much less twice, has proven too Herculean a humorous task. • THE INTERNSHIP (PG-13) As a follow-up to stars Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson’s Wedding Crashers, this movie would have killed in 2007. Of course, the economy hadn’t quite tanked at that point, so the tale of two down-on-their-luck salesmen forced to tackle a Google internship wouldn’t quite have had much relevance—not that a buddy comedy from Vaughn/ Wilson has much relevance in 2013.

felt more like episodic television than the initial, post-Avengers solo adventure. The Iron Man franchise goes 0 for 3 on villains; none are in Iron Man’s league. Such minor quibbles don’t devalue Iron Man 3’s entertainment worth; it’s one high quality blockbuster. MAN OF STEEL (PG-13) Henry Cavill is the last son of Krypton in this new, darker take on Superman. The iconic superhero of all superheroes is being reimagined a short seven years after his last screen adventure (Bryan Singer’s Superman Returns), with Christopher Nolan producing a script by his Batwriter David S. Goyer. 300/Watchmen’s Zack Snyder directs a cast that includes Russell Crowe, Kevin Costner, Amy Adams, Diane Lane, Laurence Fishburne and Michael Shannon as General Zod. I. Cannot. Wait. MUD (PG-13) A coming of age tale set in the disappearing wilds of the small town south, Mud aims high, as director Jeff Nichols attempts to channel Mark Twain, and hits the target square in the bull’s eye. Two teens—Ellis (Tye Sheridan, Tree of Life) and Neckbone (newcomer Jacob Lofland)—discover a boat in a tree. They also discover Matthew McConaughey’s Mud, a fugitive living in the boat in the tree, while he waits to escape with the love of his life, Juniper (Reese Witherspoon). Mud watches like a work of modern literature, capturing the last gasps of a dying culture as one boy becomes a man. (Ciné) NOW YOU SEE ME (PG-13) Four street magicians (Jesse Eisenberg,

Woody Harrelson, Isla Fisher and Dave Franco) are enlisted in a mysterious, magical plan to do something, but nobody is really sure what until the last reel. Hot on their heels is a dogged FBI Agent, Dylan Rhodes (Mark Ruffalo), and a debunker of magicians (Morgan Freeman). Now You See Me is as entertaining as it is eye-rollingly contrived. Clash of the Titans’ Louis Leterrier keeps the illusions moving along too fast for anyone to see through the script’s tricks until the woeful reveal. Now You See Me has the slick, breezy air of a ‘70s TV show, an okay trait for forgettable summer fun. OLYMPUS HAS FALLEN (R) Olympus Has Fallen feels like a relic from the bygone era of the 1980s, where audiences were satisfied by old-fashioned, bloody action movies wherein stone-faced heroes faced off against despicable bad guys without obfuscating their violent exploits with frenetic camerawork. Too bad director Antoine Fuqua’s latest flick isn’t the new Die Hard, as this Gerard Butlersaves-the-president actioner easily bests John McClane’s latest misfire. Disgraced Secret Service Agent Mike Banning (Butler) is the only person in America who can save the President (Aaron Eckhart) after North Korean terrorists take over the White House. With a franchise-worthy new hero and a well-choreographed, well-shot focus on physical conflict, Olympus Has Fallen kicks butt better than the muscular bulk of recent action movies. OZ THE GREAT AND POWERFUL (PG) First and foremost, Sam Raimi’s The Wizard of Oz prequel is no Wizard; it’s not even Return to Oz, the very dark, very underrated 1985 sequel. Disney’s latest family blockbuster reveals the wizard’s own cyclonic entry to Oz. Carnival magician and con man Oscar Diggs (James Franco) meets three witches—Theodora (Mila Kunis), Evanora (Rachel Weisz) and Glinda (Michelle Williams)—who believe him to be the great wizard whose appearance in Oz was prophesied. Oz won’t make anyone forget the original, but it doesn’t shame its memory either. PEEPLES (PG-13) Stop me if this plotline sounds familiar. A guy, Wade Walker (Craig Robinson), in love with a girl, Grace Peeples (Kerry Washington), who is way out of his league, seeks to please her domineering father, federal judge Virgil Peeples (David Alan Grier). The “chocolate Kennedys,” as Wade calls the Peeples, have their own problems, which lead to sub-sitcom problems and hijinks. Wade’s brother (Malcolm Barrett) refers to a “black ‘Three’s Company,’” a fairly fitting description of the entire movie. I wouldn’t be shocked to see producer Tyler Perry turning this flick into his latest TBS sitcom. Imagine the hilarity of the Browns-Peeples crossover. No seriously, you’ll have to imagine the laughs because they won’t exist. • THE PURGE (R) In the future, America is a paradise of low unemployment and low crime, all thanks to the Purge instituted by the New Founding Fathers. One night every year, all laws are suspended for twelve hours. During this Purge, any citizen may empty themselves of all the pent-up rage and frustration by doing whatever violence they want. Mostly, the Purge affects the poor. Wealthy families like the Sandins (Ethan Hawke,

Lena Headey, Max Buckholder and Adelaide Kane) lock themselves behind fancy security systems. But this Purge is different, as the Sandins’ young son lets in a bloody stranger, who is being hunted by a creepy pack of rich kids that want their prey returned to them. What looks like another version of Bryan Bertino’s excellent The Strangers is really more like another movie written by The Purge’s writerdirector James DeMonaco, the remake of Assault on Precinct 13. It also feels a little bit like the last act of Straw Dogs. Despite the slight bait-and-switch, this flick is a fine example of how to do an exploitation-thriller right—emphasis on tension, intimidation and bloody violence. Audiences expecting more thrills and fewer scares should enjoy this summer changeup. QUARTET (PG-13) A delightful trifle filled with deliciously British performances. At Beecham House, a home for retired musicians, plans are afoot for a birthday gala. Drama arrives in the form of an aging diva, Jean Horton (Maggie Smith), who is also the ex-wife of another resident (Tom Courtenay). Director Dustin Hoffman unfussily directs Oscar winner Ronald Harwood’s play with an actor’s generosity for his actors. Anyone who enjoyed their stay at The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel should also enjoy the performances of Quartet. RENOIR (R) 2012. On the French Riviera in 1915, future filmmaker Jean Renoir (Vincent Rottiers) returns home to convalesce from an injury suffered in World War I. While there, he meets Andree Heuschling (Christa Theret), the last model for Jean’s father, the Impressionist master Pierre-Auguste (Michel Bouquet). Fascinatingly, director Gilles Bourdos used the skills of convicted art forger Guy Ribes to recreate Renoir’s paintings on screen. The film competed in the Un Certain Regard at the Cannes Film Festival. (Ciné) STAR TREK INTO DARKNESS (PG-13) The second film in J.J. Abrams’ revamped Trek-verse, is the best Star Wars movie since 1983. Don’t think I typed that wrong. The second new Star Trek is the giant, sci-fi, matinee serial that the Star Wars prequels never were. Captain Kirk (Chris Pine) leads the crew of the Starship Enterprise—Spock (Zachary Quinto), Bones (Karl Urban), Uhura (Zoe Saldana), Sulu (John Cho), Chekhov (Anton Yelchin) and Scotty (Simon Pegg)—after a rogue Federation operative (Benedict Cumberbatch) turns terrorist. Trek has never looked better, been more thrilling or more humanly humorous, and those praises come from a lifelong Trek fan (I eschew the Trekkie/Trekker nomenclature). Star Trek 2 seems like the luckiest of numbers. l THIS IS THE END (R) This metacomedy from Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg (their directorial debuts!) stars Rogen and a bunch of his pals— James Franco, Jonah Hill, Danny McBride, Craig Robinson, Jay Baruchel and a lot more—as they face the end of the world. The jokes fly fast and loose in the trailers. If the movie can live up to its own buzz, this flick could be one of the year’s funniest. WHAT MAISIE KNEW (NR) A contemporary retelling of the acclaimed novel by Henry James, What Maisie Knew stars newcomer Onata Aprile as six-year-old Maisie, who struggles through the divorce and subsequent custody battle of her parents, an aging rocker (Julianne Moore) and an art dealer (Steve Coogan). Thrown into the mix are her parents’ new partners, Maisie’s former nanny (Joanna Vanderham) and a young bartender (Alexander Skarsgard). Directed by Scott McGehee and David Siegel.(Ciné) Drew Wheeler


movie pick Artists at the Well RENOIR (R) World War I is still raging on, and the young Jean Renoir (Vincent Rottiers) returns to his family’s estate, Cagnes-sur-Mer, to nurse his combat wounds. Jean’s elderly, ailing widowed father, the Impressionist painter Pierre-Auguste Renoir (Michel Bouquet), spends his time painting and obsessing over his latest muse, the beautiful red-haired AndrÊe Heuschling (Christa Theret). The patriarch Renoir desires her, but the younger son pursues a relationship with AndrÊe, and she becomes a vital inspiration to both men. This is a different kind of summer movie—one free of frenetic action and tumult, those kinds of things we usually gravitate to during this cinematic season. Instead, Michel Bouquet director/writer Gilles Bourdos’ nostalgic Renoir offers up something more contemplative and placid than a knot work of thrills and action: an examination of two legendary men at a pivotal time in their relationship and in their art. The elder Renoir was a master of his creative domain, and his son would go on to become a master of filmmaking, the most dominant art of the 20th century. Renoir is indeed seductive on a cinematic surface level. Cinematographer Mark Ping Bing Lee vividly captures the golden Mediterranean

light, and his work on the picture fittingly lulls us into the lazy hours that envelope the Renoirs and AndrÊe. The light and space of the south of France are intoxicating, and Renoir is enticing and pleasurable. Where it stumbles a bit is on a dramatic level. The actuality of the story is fascinating, and AndrÊe did play an important role in both men’s lives. She eventually became Jean’s wife and starred in a number of his early silent movies before retiring from the acting profession in the 1930s. But Renoir’s airy narrative never does plunge deeper beneath the surface. Bouquet is always convincing as the great painter, his performance nuanced and quietly affecting. Rottiers is far more mannered and much too handsome as Jean, giving us little glimpse of the great filmmaker he would become. More problematic still is Theret. Though she is physically alluring, AndrÊe also comes off as manipulative and increasingly unlikeable. Regardless of its faults and lack of directorial conviction, Renoir still works its subtle charms, and it is hard to grow restless spending time in such atmospheric splendor and in the company of such brilliant minds. It’s just that the Renoirs deserve so much better.

What’Ll YA Have? TaterZandra Serves Up Sonic Stew It’s

not that TaterZandra is a bad name, per se. (Points for googleability.) It’s just that it doesn’t conjure images of a totally badass rock band so much as some neglected item on an all-you-caneat cafeteria counter. Still, it kind of makes sense, in a weird way; the intertwined personalities that comprise the local post-punk group are as wide-ranging and unpredictable as the items on a Golden Corral menu. The sonic ideas that inform the band’s music are just as varied. Nom de Plume, TaterZandra’s sharp debut full-length, is a burning, churning surf of dissonant sound. “If somebody says, ‘This sounds like that,’ we’re like, ‘Fuck that, we’re not doing it,’” says Jon Crandall, the group’s drummer, quick on the skins and with a joke, about where the group falls on the stylistic spectrum. But a music critic’s impulse is to compare, and at the risk of alienating my subjects I tell them that Nom de Plume resembles Sonic Youth as heard through post-hardcore earbuds. Bandmembers agree, albeit reluctantly—”We all like Sonic Youth,” someone groans (the “of course” is implicit)—but insist, fairly, that the analysis is short-sighted. What about the tonal experimentation that dots the record’s edges, the adept melodicism that shines its coat? “The contrast is what makes it cool,” says singer and guitarist McKenna Mackie in her inveterate Georgia accent. In an email she labels her band’s sound as “structured minimalistic ambient cacophony,” a ridiculous description that’s actually not far off: Nom de Plume is ridiculously wide-ranging. The textural interlude “Out to Pasture” is a far cry from the next track, the scuzz-punk “March Hare,” while the menacing “Phalanges” is worlds away from the borderline pop tune “URURME.” TaterZandra is a collaborative effort; this much is clear. During the writing process, “Everybody gets their say, ideawise, what we should try,” says guitarist Matt Tamisin, the band’s unofficial spokesman. “And then we have to all agree on what the final thing is. So we end up trying a million and one different things, and something usually ends up making it that we all agree on.”

FLAGPOLE.COM ∙ JUNE 12, 2013

The group’s music is intricate and considered. Individual influences come through, like Mackie’s classical upbringing. “[My dad and I] would ride around in the car and he would blast it out. Classical music was totally rock and roll to me.” Crandall’s influences, like his half-serious affinity for TV soundtracks, rub against Mackie’s classical affinities and create a friction that births the final product, which sounds like everything and nothing that came before it. “We don’t want [every] song to have a certain sound,” Mackie continues. “We want it to surprise us, as well.” Nom de Plume is full of surprises that work surprisingly well. TaterZandra’s ability to blend these disparate sounds into something that sticks owes both to bandmembers’ musical prowess and their readiness to adopt one another’s ideas. When speaking with them as a group, it becomes clear how close they all are. When Wade Gunter, the group’s quiet, ambling bass player, wanders up late to the interview (“I had to count out some nickels and stuff [for gas], but I made it,” he says), the rest of the band ribs him, but only just enough that he feels it. When the band discusses the ample time spent recording Nom de Plume, Crandall jokes that “Some of us [need] a lot of takes, if you know what I mean,” and mimes towards Mackie, who affects annoyance. But they know, as does she, that it’s Mackie’s explosive, expressive singing that ties everything together. She is as adept at screaming bloody murder (“Wanjiku”) as she is at providing a song’s lead melody (“URURME”) and spooky, sirenlike cooing (the opening of “Bahrain,” which recalls both Kim Gordon circa Sonic Nurse and Deerhoof’s Satomi Matsuzaki). She is a vocal shapeshifter, the band’s greatest weapon. “I’m kind of shy and introverted,” Mackie says. “I can’t ever get across what I wanna say, you know? So you get to express yourself and be yourself wholly through the music.” In its early live shows and on its first demo recordings, the group floundered a bit, veering woozily from song to song with little continuity, but Nom de Plume proves that TaterZandra is becoming itself, wholly. In Athens, where it’s not uncommon

for a new and talented band to implode well before figuring itself out, this is a welcome sign. Still, though the group is becoming itself, it isn’t losing any of the chameleonic qualities that make it so uniquely suited to share bills with any number of locals, from the brash punk of Muuy Biien to the weirdo-pop of Tunabunny—both of whom the band cites as favorites. (“They’re inspiring,” says Tamisin of his peers. “It’s totally different than what you do, and you don’t wanna do what they do, but it makes you wanna play. It makes you wanna do something cool.”) And it isn’t ditching the name, either. About that: Mackie finally explains that the band’s strange moniker stems from a family tale about her younger sister, whom she describes as “one of the most inspiring people I’ve ever met… Her name’s Taylor Alexandra, and when she was really little, starting to talk, we’d be like, ‘Alex’—she goes by Alex—’What’s your name?’” The sweetly mangled response, as those things go, became a mantra. “Actually,” Tamisin says, having memorized the story by now, too, “she said two ‘Zandras’.” “We shortened it,” says Gunter, “because at every show there were these drunk people, and they’d ask the name. We said ‘TaterZandraZandra,’ and they were like, ‘What?’” “They still do the same thing,” Crandall notes, “but instead of it taking five times to register, now it takes maybe two.” Tamisin grins and measures a length with his hands. “Plus, the sticker would be that long.” Gabe Vodicka

one of the members of Wild Nothing are originally from Athens, but their June 13 show at the 40 Watt will be a kind of homecoming, nonetheless. While the band—songwriting muscleman Jack Tatum and his touring band of guitarist Nathan Goodman, bassist Jeff Haley, keyboardist Kevin Knight and drummer Jeremiah Johnson—mostly met as college students in Blacksburg, VA, Athens has become an adopted home, both literally and figuratively. “We always rehearse here before going on the road, like at Nuçi’s Space, or for a while we were practicing down at Pigpen,â€? says Goodman, who relocated to Athens after finishing up at Virginia Tech. Wild Nothing began as a bedroom recording project for Tatum, whom the Internet quickly hurled into indie stardom on the strength of his tunes. A quick perusal of his catalog makes it clear why his music has appealed to so many. His songs, which feature glowing synth atmospheres constructed around catchy guitar and vocal melodies, are of our nostalgic indie moment and also somehow timelessly outside it. There is nothing kitschy or gimmicky about Tatum’s music; it just sounds good. On his first two albums, Tatum made some resounding statements about who he was as a songwriter, and now he’s going about subverting them. This spring, Wild Nothing released Empty Estate, an EP that, while it doesn’t quite turn everything you thought you knew about Tatum on its head, is surprisingly dancey and bold. “The EP, for me, was kind of an opportunity to separate myself a bit from what I had done before,â€? Tatum says. “I was excited about showing people that I had other interests, and that I was capable of different styles of songwriting. It represented a different shift in my own musical interests. “I really enjoy dance music, actually,â€? Tatum continues, noting that he drew from influences like Talking Heads’ beat-driven grooves when writing this new collection of songs. “It’s something that hasn’t seeped into my music so much [until now]‌ I have an interest in synthetic music. I’m drawn to music that is able to combine the organic and the synthetic.â€? Wary of being pigeonholed, Tatum is clear about the fact that he plans to keep exploring new styles of music with every release, saying, “It’s about me trying to find what my music is,

the thing that separates me from everything else.â€? That quest for a singular voice explains why, despite having a talented group of musicians in his touring band, Tatum prefers to do his songwriting and recording solo. But, as Goodman points out, a Wild Nothing performance and a Wild Nothing record are two different beasts. “When we all get together to figure out how to play these songs live, that’s when we can find ways to add little things here and there,â€? he says. The energy of five people onstage is undeniably more—or perhaps just differently charged—than that of one guy in the studio. That means Wild Nothing’s live show has something fresh to offer even those who know their catalog word for word—and if the frequency with which the band’s albums can be heard playing in shops and restaurants downtown is any sign, there are a lot of us in Athens. This week’s gig is one of a string of East Coast shows that offer the bandmembers a chance to run into family or old friends. After the three years they’ve spent relentlessly touring everywhere from Barcelona to Tokyo in support of Wild Nothing’s 2010 debut, Gemini, and last year’s follow-up, Nocturne, they’re happy to be staying close to home. And, Tatum says, despite the fact that he now lives in New York, Wild Nothing’s music is forever tied to the South. “I think if I had tried to start Wild Nothing in New York‌ it never would have worked,â€? Tatum says. “I think it was the lack of outside influence in my town that allowed me to be successful. I was very much able to just look inward as opposed to looking at what other people were doing around me‌ I almost felt that the fact that I lived somewhere where there wasn’t this complete over-saturation of culture allowed me to get where I needed to go.â€?

threats & promises Music News And Gossip Nothing To Prove: Seems the summer heat has already gotten to Chris McKay, as the local songwriter got a wild hair last week and decided on a whim—his words—to go ahead and release his first ever solo release. The four-song EP, All Day Face, includes his newest solo recording, “Best Case Scenario�—imagine Steely Dan’s “My Old School� as interpreted by The Sweet—along with three other tracks he’s recorded during the past year. McKay says this release is hopefully the start of an EP series, because he “take[s] so very endlessly long to release full-lengths.� Longtime listeners will recognize the enthusiasm right off the bat, but this isn’t a Critical Darlings release. As such, McKay is a little more expansive with his writing, especially on the head-in-hands weeper “Everything Must Go,� which, thematically, is a nice track to follow the upbeat “Best of What’s Around.� Go have a listen at critical darlings.bandcamp.com.

ambitious $4,500, but there are still a couple of weeks left. It’s a very nice album that makes you want to lie on the floor in a way that makes its wintry release date of December seem entirely appropriate. Gallons is joined on this release by his Elephant 6 cohorts Julian Koster, Will Cullen Hart, John Fernandes and Derek Almstead. Check out the campaign at kickstarter.com/projects/neseygallons/

Takes Five To Tango: Tango musician Laura Camacho has seen some shifting in her group, but everything seems to be settled down now with the addition of members Curran Prendergast on guitar, Franziska Brunner on clarinet and vocalist/finger-snapper Ricardo Hurtado. The new combo has been christened the Athens Tango Project. There’s only one track you can currently check out at athenstangoproject.bandAthens Tango Project camp.com, but I really encourage you to do so. If you dig, head to New Earth Music vinyl-of-when-i-was-an-ice-skater-by-neseygallons, and stream the record at neseygalHall on Saturday, June 15 and catch ATP with lons.bandcamp.com.

give it a listen if you want, but if you do, you’ll probably want your 17 minutes back. I certainly did. Follow the leader over at face book.com/AthenstheBand. Lay Your Money Down: Matt Hudgins & His Shit-Hot Country Band has plans in the works to release a 7-inch vinyl single and digital download in the very near future. It’ll feature two previously unreleased songs and sport the brilliant title The Singles Collection: 20092013. The band hosted a special pre-order

fiesta at CinĂŠ earlier this week, where they debuted the music videos for the two songs on the 7-inch, “Hello Again, 5 AMâ€? and “Adderall & Alcohol.â€? They also screened the video for “Wilkes County Jail,â€? from Hudgins’ solo album Better Days Are Coming. The videos were shot on actual film by Spencer Adams and codirected by Adams and Erskine McDonald. Hudgins is still taking pre-orders for the record—this is strictly an old-school pre-order effort, not a fundraising campaign to support its release. You can get in on the action at hudginscountry.com and matthudgins.band camp.com. Multi-instrumentalist Jonathan Vance will return to Athens on Monday, June 17 to perform with his project Thunderbird at Go Bar. The show is part of Cult of Riggonia’s Monday night summer residency at the venue. Each night has a theme, and this one is “Maury: You are Not the Fatherâ€? and will feature Hand Sand Hands and Stupid Idiots, too. Vance made some waves in Athens back in April 2008 with his “30 Days of Vance,â€? during which he booked 30 collaborative shows with different sets of musicians, playing one-night-only material for the entire month. It’s exactly this kind of over-thetop intensity that informs Thunderbird, too. I’ve spun the band’s self-titled album, on which Vance plays everything, no less than three times through. It sounds like music made by someone throwing Led Zeppelin records through a broken window to someone else who’s throwing back Ornette Coleman records. Agree with me thoroughly after checking out thunderbirdatlanta.bandcamp.com. Wintry Mix: The can-do dudes in Witness the Apotheosis have uploaded a couple of tracks to their brandspankin’ new Soundcloud page. The significant one is their remix of R.E.M.’s “It Happened Today,â€? which is a really cool darkwave re-imagining of Athens’ favorite sons. Find it at soundcloud.com/witnesstheapotheosis. Word on the street is the duo is currently recording new material, and that’s a positive sign for fans, because the last set of alloriginal stuff came out in 2011. For the rest of the band’s catalog, you can head over to witnesstheapotheosis.bandcamp.com. Gordon Lamb threatsandpromises@flagpole.com

Rabbit Box The Melting Point · 7 p.m. · $5

The monthly storytelling series Rabbit Box presents its 13th installment of narratives for adult ears with the theme “Guns: A True Story from my Life.” Eight locals— Michele Chidester, Jeffrey Henderson, David Kulniszewski, Maureen McLaughlin, Kate Morrissey, Kerry Steinberg, Ivan Sumner and Marty Winkler—will each share a meaningful eight-minute vignette onstage, collectively offering insight into the many ways firearms affect society. A ninth “crackerjack” storyteller, whose name will be drawn during the intermission, will also share an impromptu story. Because views on fiercely debated issues like gun control are often shaped by an individual’s personal history, a platform like Rabbit Box creates an intimate community forum for heart-to-heart discussion. Audiocasts of past performances are available online, so bookmark www.rabbitbox.org for your next rainy day activity. [Jessica Smith] MUSIC | Wednesday, June 12

JD McPherson, Kyshona Armstrong 40 Watt Club · 8 p.m. · $10

Raymond Goodman

For Oklahoma-based singer and guitarist JD McPherson, it took years of intense research into earlyKenny Roby era rock and roll to develop his own style of retro-inspired, carefully orchestrated bash ‘n’ croon. He dug deep into vintage New Orleans R&B, shouty Motown soul, Western swing, edgy Chicago blues and swingin’ Southern rockabilly before composing the eclectic set of tunes that comprise his debut album, Signs & Signifiers. The raucous, melodic mix of American genres clicked with listeners and critics alike. Signs & Signifiers made a big splash on Americana radio, and earned McPherson and his skillful backing trio solid cred among both rock purists and modern scenesters. McPherson and his band recently completed a series of European shows, and they’re swinging through Georgia and the Carolinas before heading to Bonnaroo. [T. Ballard Lesemann] MUSIC | Friday, June 14

Southern gothic-inspired rock tunes with more than a hint of soul. Now, flying solo, he does much the same, though the volume is down a notch, replaced by Roby’s meditative croon. Memories & Birds is his first solo record since 2007, and it is a stark and beautiful beast inspired by the darker corners of the soul. Talented South Carolina songwriter Tony Tidwell is preparing to release an album on Athens’ Ghostmeat records.

Ballads and Fiddle Tunes Richard B. Russell Building Special Collections

Libraries · 3 p.m. · FREE! Sisters Mary Lomax and Bonnie Loggins are aged 86 and 93, respectively, but as public performance goes, they’re rookies. In fact, they didn’t sing in front of an audience until they were into their ninth decade on earth. The sisters’ specialty is unaccompanied Appalachian balladry, a lost art of sorts featuring centuries-old songs learned during family singalongs decades ago and which local artist, musician, writer and folk historian Art Rosenbaum has chronicled in his new book, The Mary Lomax Ballad Book: America’s Great 21st Century Ballad Singer. It goes without saying there aren’t many chances left to witness this sort of performance, but I’ve got a word count to fill, so there you go. Loggins’ son Casey and fiddler Roy Tench, himself a spry and talented nonagenarian musician, will also appear, and copies of Rosenbaum’s book will be available at the ensuing reception. [Gabe Vodicka] COMEDY | Monday, June 17

Daniel Tosh The Classic Center · 7 p.m. & 9:30 p.m. · $49.50, $65 (pit) Best known as the host of Comedy Central’s “Tosh.0” series, in which he mocks the Internet’s top trending videos, Daniel Tosh’s brand of humor is sarcastic, observational and often politically incorrect. His brazen attitude earned him notoriety last year, when an off-color rape joke directed towards an audience member went viral online, sparking a frenzied debate regarding the extent to which comedians can remain uncensored before normalizing sexual assault or other detriments to society. Tosh later apologized for the incident, but you can still probably expect a few cringe-inducing punchlines at the expense of, well, everyone you know. Tosh will perform two back-to-back shows with up-andcoming LA comic Jerrod Carmichael as part of “The June Gloom Tour.” [Jessica Smith]

Matters Of The Heart And Loins I have a fairly stereotypical roommate problem. The deal is, I live with my best friend (we’re solid) and a third rando who moved in to sublet and wound up taking over the lease for her bedroom. I just moved back in from being abroad, and upon moving in, rando started seeing this guy. As the stereotype goes, they have been all over each other since they met. The problem is compounded by thin walls, and them feeling the need to have incredibly loud sex—it’s been heard over the TV in our living room, and her room is downstairs. They’ve done it for hours straight. They’ve done it when best friend and I have had company. They even were at it when family members were over. The worst part is that we’ve approached her before and nicely asked her to keep it down. She just thinks it’s funny—she keeps him away for a couple nights, and then they’re back at it in no time. It has now gotten to the point where we could probably charge the boyfriend rent, he’s here so often. While we totally get having an active, healthy sex life, it’s seriously started taking a toll on my and my best friend’s sense of privacy. Short of notifying our landlord of an undocumented tenant, we’re not sure what else to do. Thoughts? Two frazzled, underappreciated roommates I’m confused. Who is she subletting from? Did you meet this girl and vet her before she moved in? What are the terms of her sublease? Why can’t she stay at her boyfriend’s place? Ask for a meeting. Tell her that you can’t continue to live like this. Be nice, but be firm. Tell her that you agreed to one roommate, not two, and if she and the boyfriend can’t respect your needs and your space, then he can’t stay over. If she doesn’t take it seriously and if things don’t get better, consider buying her out of the sublet, or kicking her to the curb and calling the landlord. What’s the difference between a relationship where either partner would be willing to relocate to stay with the other and one in which they wouldn’t? Every time I turn around, I meet people whose partners pulled up their roots and followed them wherever their career necessitated, making sacrifices along the way, but when I have had to move for work or school I’ve just gotten axed. This most recent time, I absolutely had to move. I had no choice—it was either that or have no future where I was living. My partner could have found just as well-paying work in their field in the blink of an eye. They just didn’t think the relationship was worth giving anything up for. My friend said that if a person really loved me, then they would care about my goals and not want me to sabotage my future. So, with that in mind, I know I should be thankful that at least they didn’t ask me to stay in the futureless town I was in just to please them, or guilt me for leaving. But the main feeling I’m left with is why wasn’t I worth moving for? I wish I had never met them and never fallen in love with them in the first place, because it was too painful to find out somebody’s true level of commitment to the relationship after two whole years of “I love you’s.” How do you tell, from

(/ fm\i & @; i\h[% K`Zb\kj XmX`cXYc\ fec`e\ Xe[ Xk >\fi^`X K_\Xki\ 9fo F]ÔZ\

the get-go, if somebody would bail on you like that, so you can sidestep the hell away from them before you get hurt? Hurt There is no way to tell from the beginning where a relationship is going, Hurt. And this isn’t about you not being “worth” moving for. This is about the relationships that you have had, and the people you have had them with. If you think moving might be essential to your future, then you need to ask a person when you start dating them whether or not they would ever consider moving. I’m not suggesting that you ask “will you move if I need to move for work?” on your first date, but you should try to get a feel for whether a person is settled or has a sense of adventure before you get attached. It’s a big question, but it will tell you a lot about your compatibility. Not really a heart issue, more of a social problem. I am coming to realize that I am somewhat judgmental of my friends’ appearances. I tend to form internal judgements about how they look, how fat they are, if they take care to be healthy, etc. I do have many close friends, and I don’t let these internal, subconsciously formed judgments interfere with me becoming anybody’s friend, but the judgment often comes out in different ways, like giving unasked-for advice. I think part of the problem may be that I have set high standards for myself, by exercising religiously and taking care of my body, and also putting effort into proper grooming. But I feel bad when my statements/advice sometimes make my friends feel like they are less than me (maybe in my subconscious it is true that I have formed such a judgment) and I often come across as harsh or with very high standards, whereas in truth all I try to do is help them. It is no secret that a healthy and in-shape body is a big confidence boost, but somehow that message never comes through—only my judgmental-ness seems to be visible. I feel bad that this makes people feel inferior, when that is not my intention. Any help is really appreciated! Anonymous Dear Anonymous: Shut The Fuck Up. I know you’re probably thinking that sounds crazy, or maybe harsh, right? But it really is that simple. When you feel yourself starting to think about making a remark, or “giving advice” to people who are physically inferior to you, just don’t. You see, some people don’t have such high standards for physical fitness, and they somehow manage to still get by in life. (I love how you phrase that like it is somehow a positive trait, rather than, oh, I don’t know, vanity.) Hell, some of us slobs are even happy. Some people actually believe that it is more important to be a good friend, or a good listener, or fun to be around than it is to be in great shape. I am amazed that you actually have any friends, if you are nearly as passive-aggressive as you sound in your letter. Your only hope is to stop focusing on how physically superior you are to so many people, and start trying to be less of an asshole. Jyl Inov
