Bigfoots Mom Found in Omaha By Andy Roberts

We always wondered where she’d be hanging out.

“It’s been fun,” Bliss admitted, as he continues to shape his own thing.

Now Bigfoots Mom is working to make a mark in the Omaha music scene.

As for the name: “It’s an old, old joke I remember hearing when I was little,” Hackett recalled. A “Yo Mama” joke. “It’s deĆnitely a name you won’t forget,” he said, adding he likes the look despite the lack of a needed apostrophe.

It’s a highly creative hip-hop jazz group with DJ Nick Bliss and saxophonist Matt Hackett. Local hip-hop artist Marcey Yates sometimes joins the still evolving unit. Hackett is a Sioux City native who has been making his home in Omaha for a while, often playing with a trio during the past year. His roots are in the classic jazz sax players like Coltrane. Bliss makes his beats from old school jazz records and Hackett, who also plays with the trio, brings some phat jazzy licks on top as they build their original sound.

Hackett said he Ćnds working with a deejay to be a nice change from playing with a trio or quartet. “Nick has the drumbeat, he has the sample,” Hackett offered, and his playing works over an established beat. It’s also easier to get together for rehearsals. Together for a little more than a year, the duo continues the work of building a following.

“This dude might know what’s going on musically,” Hackett recalled of his early impression.

“If we can just keep playing for more ears,” Bliss said. “I know we want to record an album soon.”

Bliss met Hackett in Benson at Burrito Envy where the deejay had gone to pick up his equipment and they decided, after a beer, to work together.

Hackett hinted they may close to achieving that goal.

“We hit it off and I gave him a few of the instrumentals I created,” Bliss recalled. “It’s deĆnitely been great.” A Kearney native, Bliss had long been interested in deejay work. He used to visit a friend who owned a few turntables and then developed his talents listening to the Beastie Boys and Dr. Dre. After high school, he moved to Waco, Texas, and met some guys from a Dallas crew who helped him develop his craft.

“We’ve got, I think, about 20 original tunes now and we’ve just started recording,” Hackett stated. Those tracks can be found on Sound Cloud. “It’s hard just making money playing gigs,” Hackett said, but put music on the Internet and you never know. “We may get famous in South Korea.” For more on Bigfoots Mom: www.facebook.com/BigfootsMom

STOMP – Bangs its Way Back to Omaha By Eddie Torrez

STOMP is an international sensation and one remarkable show based on the joys of percussion instruments. As such, it bears repeating, but that’s something the show rarely does. Drummer, actor, and comedian Sean Perham told Focus the show is always evolving and that’s part of what drew him to the role. Not only have new songs been added to this production, the cast members often change roles. “(It) Totally changes the show. Changes the music,” he said. Those changes will be on view as Omaha Performing Arts presents STOMP at the Orpheum Theater on Friday and Saturday. From its beginnings as a U.K. street performance, STOMP has become a 20-year international sensation that boasts four global productions, an on-going sellout production in New York and a permanent London company.

As the promotional materials suggest, you will never look at supermarket carts or plumbing Ć[tures the same way. Or, for that matter, paint cans or kitchen sinks. STOMP is the winner of an Olivier Award for Best Choreography (London’s Tony Award), a New York Obie Award, a Drama Desk Award for UniTue Theatre ([perience, and a Special Citation from Best Plays among other awards. No wonder Perham said becoming a cast member fulĆlled a career goal. “It’s unlike anything you’ve ever seen before,” he offered. “It’s hard to e[plain until you’ve really seen it.” Tickets, starting at $25, are available at TicketOmaha.com, in person at the Ticket Omaha Bo[ ofĆce, or by calling (402) 450606.

Minority Homeownership Rates Continue to Lag Behind the National Average, NAR Finds By Focus Omaha

The United States homeownership rate has recently seen a rebound to 65.1% in the fourth quarter of 2019 from a low of 62.9% in the second quarter of 2016. While the increase in the overall homeownership rate is encouraging, there continues to be a signiĆcant racial homeownership gap in America that needs to be who purchases homes, why they purchase, what addressed. they purchase, and the Ćnancial background for buyers based on race. The ownership rate for non-Hispanic White Americans has been consistently above 71% from 2016 to 2019. In the same period, the homeownership rate for Black Americans has been 30 percentage points less – above 41%. For Hispanic Americans, the homeownership rate has held above 45%, and for Asian Americans, it has been above 53% over the same time period. The National Association of Realtors® today released its Snapshot of Race & Home Buying in America report. This report e[amines the homeownership rate among each race in 2018 using American Community Survey data by state. The report also e[amines the change in the homeownership rate among African Americans from 2008 to 2018 using American Community Survey data.

Jays – Creighton Enters the AP Top Ten as Surge Continues By Howard Sports There were plenty of standout stats Sunday following Creighton’s 81-59 flogging of then No. 21 Butler. One probably tells the story of the season better than any other. The Bluejays (22-6, 11-4 Big East) scored 27 baskets on the afternoon. Of those, there were assists on 19 of the hoops. That’s a touch better than 70 percent. That’s a remarkable stat, and on this day, three players had at least four assists. Passing has become a hallmark of this Creighton team that was picked to finish seventh in the ten-team Big East. Fortunately, the team and coach Greg McDermott didn’t pay attention. Now, as the end of the regular season approaches, the Bluejays are ranked No. 10 in the AP Poll and 11th in the USA Today/ Coaches Poll. As Focus goes to print, CU has four wins over ranked teams during the month of February and five on the season – both school records. After Sunday’s win, they moved to 9th place in the NET rankings, the system the NCAA uses to select and seed the Big Dance. The team is on a roll, running and passing and firing up 3-pointers as the national attention is growing. They swarm on defense and gang rebound. Overall, they’re a fun bunch to watch.

As long as you’re not on the opposing bench. So, even as long-time fans hold their breath for something to go wrong, the team stays humble and hungry with a new attitude and maybe a slight chip on its shoulder. A lack of depth is a concern, but more in the event of injury. Two likely starters went down with injuries before the season and now the rotation is eight. Marcus Zegarowski, Ty-Shon Ale[ander and Mitch Ballock form a guard trio hailed as the league’s best and maybe tops in the nation. Damien Jefferson is a fourth guard-small forward whose hustle resulted in the play of the year at Seton Hall. And Christian Bishop would be a three-man in a perfect world but starts at the post. His latest outing produced 19 points and five dunks against Butler. Shareef Mitchell from Omaha Burke brings defense off the bench. Denzel Mahoney transferred from Southeast Missouri and became eligible at the start of the second semester, bringing muscle and more firepower. Kelvin Jones, a 6’11” transfer from Idaho State provides rebounding and a completely different look. The biggest difference from last year’s 20-15 team is probably the defensive improvement. Assistant coach Paul Lusk gets much of the credit as Coach Mac’s defensive coordinator.

Focus | February 26 - March 4 | Volume 4 Issue 8

The current ride started last year after a series of close losses. Since Feb. 20 of 2019, Creighton is 29-8 with the best record in Big East play. Hopefully, the current streak will continue well into March this year. So, what happened during the past week? Zegarowski, who was named Big East Playerof-the-Week, was a perfect 7-for-7 from three-point range on Sunday and Bishop had career-highs in points (19), assists (5), blocks (4) and steals (3) as CU capped one of its best months in the history of the program with the 81-59 win over #21 Butler before more than 18,000. The Jays scored the first five points of the game and never trailed as the avenged a 71-57 loss at Indianapolis in early January.

Creighton built a 27-17 lead in the first half and used a deep three-pointer by Ballock with seven seconds left for a 32-22 lead at the break. Marquette rallied with a 16-6 run after intermission to tie the game at 38 during a five-minute stretch that saw Bishop and Ale[ander shaken up on separate plays. The Jays answered immediately with an 8-0 run that featured a lay-up by Zegarowski and three-balls by Ballock and Ale[ander to make it 46-38 with 12:38 to play.

Freakabout - “Babezooka”

and roll music videos seen also in “Drive Your Car,” by L.A. Witch and “Bat Country,” by Avenged Sevenfold. Freakabout has nailed this interpretation in an alternate universe that is stately aesthetic. “Predator,” is a psychedelic track off Babezooka with a looking-intothe-camera visual accompaniment you might have found in a disco after party.

Freakabout is a roomy e[perience. Not sludgy enough to consider doom, twangy but not country, se[y but sad, psychedelic but not weird, Freakabout is a good, rememberable hard rock band right here in the Midwest which is set to go far; a solid band who e[erts control.

By Tatiana Ballinger

Freakabout is a rock and roll band from Lincoln, Nebraska who sounds like summer of love Black Sabbath on their 9 track album from 2018, “Babezooka.” Find signature guitar sounds from 70s eras mi[ed with smooth croons of resolute, emotional singer and frontperson, Cortney Kirby, who steers clear from gimmicky, raspy recorded vocals. A heavier early Paramore is heard most effectively in the eighth track off Babezooka, “Bleach.” Kirby, like Williams, avoids acquainted monotone shrieks riot grrls have colonized. Patient fans of the young southern rock band turned pop act are Ćnally graced with a dedicated indie band replacement. Fans of Dead Weather and Wolfmother would accept thick bass in Freakabout with open ears. This coed group of Nebraskies has painted a lovely picture of the state. Songs about normal Nebraska life are given much depth and is deliberately depicted as such in the music video for “Queen of the Dust.” Open roads and friendship, TV and wallpaper, aerial views of a band playing in the ćatlands with no seeming audience, walking to and from the car as night falls, is a staple for rock Focus | February 26 - March 4 | Volume 4 Issue 8 21

Omaha Mavericks By Focus Omaha

The Omaha Mavericks continued a lateseason turnaround and picked up their third straight win on Saturday afternoon, topping Western Illinois 93-86 on the road. That improved the Mavs to 15-14 (8-6 Summit League), while the Leathernecks drop to 5-19 (2-12) with their ninth consecutive loss. Marlon RufĆn came off the bench for a season-high 30 points on 11-of-15 shooting, including 4-of-5 from deep. The sophomore added seven rebounds, three assists, a steal and a block in the Ćrst 30-point performance for a Maverick this season. JT Gibson was 4-of-6 beyond the arc and Ćnished with 19 points. KJ Robinson added

18 while Wanjang Tut chipped in another 10 points in 13 minutes of action. The Leathernecks were led by Kobe Webster Ćnished with a game-high 40 points on 15of-24 shooting. Saturday’s win followed a Thursday victory that was clinched by Ayo Akinwole & #39’s game-winning basket with 3.4 seconds left. That gave Omaha a 61-59 road victory over Purdue Fort Wayne. Robinson and Gibson Ćnished with 12 points apiece to pace the Mavericks offensively. Omaha plays its home Ćnale Wednesday, North Dakota to Ba[ter Arena at 7 p.m.

Nebraska Pitching Off To A Rough Start By Focus Omaha

The Nebraska baseball team started its opening game of the 2020 season at Baylor with 11 runs in the Ćrst inning and picked up the win, 19-9. They appeared to be on a roll against the Bears before surrendering a lateinning run in game 2 which led to an 8-7 loss in 10 innings before thoroughly getting thrashed 7-2 in game 3. Moving forward to this past weekend, NU headed to Fowler Park in San Diego for the Tony Gwynn Legacy tournament where they dropped Game 1 to San Diego U. 12-11 and then fell 4-2 to San Diego State before dropping their Ćnal game to Arizona, 3-2, in a match-up that featured a three-hit performance.

The easiest answer to their current woes is the team’s inability to provide middle relief and closing pitching. The Huskers currently rank fourth in the Big Ten in batting average at .273, fourth in Ćelding at .964, but ne[t to last in the league with a 6.31 ERA. Fans are hoping new coach Will Bolt, a former Husker and assistant, is just trying to Ćnd the right mi[ of pitching in the early going. It appears obvious that the Huskers have e[plosive potential on offense, but if the pitching doesn’t start improving soon, it could be a long season for the Big Red. On Friday they head to No. 12 Arizona State for a three-game series in Tempe. The games will be streamed live on PAC-12.com.

WHO’S UP? Domino’s global sales jumped 8%, sending shares up 30% last week. It’s one of the only big chains that refuse to partner with delivery apps like Gruhub and DoorDash. For years it has been committed to personally handling delivery (although the satisfaction rate may wane if driver’s like mine continue to throw tantrums and chuck 2 liters in my neighbors yard after screwing up the order), even to the point of investing big in its own app — now it’s e[panding GPS-pizza tracking for orderers. FYI, takeout now makes up nearly half of Domino’s orders — and it’s more profitable than delivery (because delivery costs e[tra time & money).

WHO’S DOWN? Shares of Warren Berkshire Hathaway rose 11% in 2019 — not bad, right? Until you compare that with the S&P 500, which jumped 31.5% last year. That means that if you’d invested in an S&P 500-tracking ETF for all of 2019, you would’ve made a 31.5% return. But Warren reminded us as always in his annual letter to shareholders (which came out Saturday) that Berkshire has performed twice as well as the S&P 500 historically since 1965

COVID-19 Q&A’s Plus ZKere to ĆQd daily updates- Provided by UNMC How does the virus spread? This virus probably originally emerged from an animal source, but can now spread from person-to-person. At this time, it’s unclear how easily or sustainably this virus is spreading between people. Coronaviruses generally spread by respiratory droplets generated when a sick person coughs or sneezes. Coronaviruses may survive on surfaces that have been contaminated with respiratory secretions. (For e[ample, a sick person coughs on their hand and then touches a doorknob.) Thus, contaminated surfaces may be another, less common, route of transmission. It should be noted that common disinfectants kill coronaviruses on surfaces. Why were the Americans in China and on cruise ships brought to Nebraska? Nebraska Medicine/UNMC has answered the global health emergency call before. In the last five years, we have been busy teaching other health care professionals around the world, developing new approaches to care, conducting research, and putting what we learned into practice. Along with our federal partners, we have the right people for this job. There is no better place for our fellow Americans to be. Can I get COVID-19 from packages or products shipped from China?

ambient temperatures. Currently, there is no evidence to support the transmission of COVID-19 associated with imported goods, and there have not been any cases of novel coronavirus in the United States associated with imported goods. Compared with SARS, is this a bigger threat to the U.S.? And compared with flu, is COVID-19 more serious? Based on current information, we think that this virus causes milder disease on average compared with SARS. However, the new coronavirus seems to be more readily spread from person-to-person than SARS. We anticipate more information from scientists and public health officials over the ne[t few weeks that will help us understand the level of risk to the U.S. and other countries. However, we know that influenza is a danger every year, causing 35,000 deaths in an average season in the U.S. We’re currently e[periencing a very active flu season, so it’s important to get your flu shot, stay home from work or school if you’re sick, avoid close contact with those who are sick, cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue and wash your hands frequently. How can I avoid getting COVID-19? The best advice is to practice good hygiene and common-sense measures like you would with the seasonal flu. Those things include:

In general, because of poor survivability of 1. Wash your hands often with soap and warm coronaviruses on surfaces, there is a very low water for at least 20 seconds – hand sanitizer risk of spread from products or packaging that is a second option. are shipped over a period of days or weeks at

4. If you are sick, stay at home. 5. Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or sleeve when coughing or sneezing – DON’T cough or sneeze into your hands. 6. Frequently clean and disinfect frequently touched objects in your home, car, and workplace 7. If you are traveling overseas, make sure to follow CDC guidelines at wwwnc.cdc.gov/ travel. Right now in the U.S., there are very few cases and they are all linked to travel or close contact with an ill person. UNMC Daily Update as of February 25 We now have 14 people being monitored for COVID-19 at UNMC/Nebraska Medicine with the arrival of an additional Diamond Princess evacuee yesterday evening. Twelve people are being monitored in the National Quarantine Unit while two continue receiving care in the Nebraska Biocontainment Unit. Twelve of the evacuees have tested positive for the coronavirus while two continue to be negative. Those who are negative and remain healthy are eligible to leave quarantine on March 2. Details for testing and release of those who tested positive are still being discussed. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) announced the launch of a clinical trial to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of an antiviral to help treat people hospitalized with a COVID-19 infection. This is the first clinical trial in the United States to evaluate an e[perimental treatment for this disease.

Remdesivir is an investigational broad-spectrum antiviral treatment. It was previously tested in humans with Ebola and has shown promise in animal models for treating MERS and SARS, which are caused by other coronaviruses. Learn more our involvement in this clinical trial. Our 14 evacuees will have the opportunity to speak to each other via a virtual teleconference today, where early plans for testing and tentative timelines for dismissal may be discussed. There are now 53 cases of COVID-19 in the United States. There are more than 80,000 cases worldwide. Outside of China, hotspots continue to be South Korea and Italy.

Garst, “Phases” By Tatiana Ballinger

Omaha four piece rock group, Garst is touring their 2019 EP called “Phases,” in and around town with small and big names starting now. What seems like a group of wholesome blondes is hardly ever the case. According to their proĆle page, 5oman Constantino, Cannon Dunwoody, Joe Murphy-Chavez, and Casey Pulcinski bring you a nostalgic taste of present day Midwest indie rock. Garst sounds like a drunk person trying to say, “ghost, run!” The name sounds like a belch coming from a mad scientist. Garst is a mysterious utterance for insiders underground. Fun screamalongs tempt pub songs in the third track, “Psychloptopus,” with correct oohs and aahs, inćection in the bass somehow asking the right questions to be met from all sides with sensical riffs and tight drums framing the chaos. Vocals are froggy and drawled like our favorite

grunge singers sans pre-breakdown yeehaws. This group is active and motivated, surely an inspiration to us all as we Ćnally escape the winter that never happened. Welcome spring with a delightful spin of Garst, “Phases.” +ear garage inćuences like the Oh Sees and Cosmonauts. Odes to Pi[ies metallic parody convert to a somewhat electriĆed %right Eyes vocal and ćeshy drums in the closing track of “Phases.” Support Omaha’s independent music scene and catch Garst - bless you - at a DIY space, bar, or professional music venue.
