Kids can navigate their way to a workshop on maps
FINDING OUR WAY
Saturday at “Finding Our Way,” from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Elm Fork Education Center on the University of North Texas campus. “Finding Our Way” is a primer on maps: how they’re made, how to make your own and how to use electronic maps. Before packing it in, Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts working on their merit badges — and local schoolchildren who just like to spend an afternoon studying a world map or a globe — can find their own treasures using maps. Admission is $5 per child, and refreshments are included. Scouts should bring along some “SWAPs” — things to “share with a pal” from other Scout troops. The UNT Geography Department and Geography Club are presenting Saturday’s workshop, which is part of the Family STEM Workshops series. — Lucinda Breeding

Huckleberry Finn (Luke Boyce) and Tom Sawyer (Tristin Thomas) take a load off near the river in “Mark Twain’s Tom Sawyer” at Artisan Center Theater in Hurst.
Artisan Center Theatre ends its main stage run of the play Mark Twain’s Tom Sawyer this weekend in Hurst. Based on Twain’s novel, Tom Sawyer is about an unruly but friendly young man who lives on the Mississippi River. He gets into scrapes (that can happen when you run away with your two best friends and then think about appearing at your own funeral) and runs amok, but Tom and his bosom buddy Huckleberry Finn, are always endearing. In Twain’s fictitious St. Petersburg, Tom, Huck and friends find merriment and mischief, but they restore balance — for a split second — when they decide to do the right thing. The Hurst theater company ends the show — an all-ages affair — on Saturday night.

Dallas Summer Musicals presents “Kinky Boots” at the Music Hall at Fair Park in Dallas, now through March 8.
Dude struts like a lady ‘Kinky Boots’ makes North Texas debut
T
hese boots are made for dancing. The hotly awaited Kinky Boots, winner of six Tony Awards in 2013 including best musical, made its North Texas debut, presented by Dallas Summer Musicals, earlier this week and will return Oct. 27 to play Bass Performance Hall in Fort Worth. The still-running Broadway hit about a businessman and a
drag queen who come up with an unusual idea to save a failing shoe factory was inspired by a true story, told in a 2005 British film of the same name.

immy Buffett has a Caribbean soul, for sure, but this Mississippi man has some Texas hidden in his heart, as he sings in his 1974 song “Migration.” Buffett and his band of surfer singers are best known for megahits “Margaritaville” and “Cheeseburger in Paradise,” but behind those are 40 years of tunes that preach the beach life. Wear flip-flops, grass skirts and coconut bras if you’re headed to the land-locked tiki party in Frisco in June. Serious Parrotheads will have already arrived more than 24 hours before showtime, partying next to their RVs and land cruisers in paved paradise.

“Timbuktu” weaves together a handful of enchanting story lines. Cohen Media Group
Life among the jihadis By Boo Allen Film Critic booa@att.net
The people move slowly, but justice moves swiftly in Timbuktu, a spare yet compelling examination of living life under siege. Once upon a time, the name Timbuktu connoted a sense of strange remoteness, a faraway place immune to modern norms and conventions. It still has that cinematic meaning for anyone used to Hollywood fare, as the film Timbuktu is as foreign as its exotic locale and unrecognizable people. Director Abderrahmane Sissako co-wrote the film with Kessen Tall, and the film became Mauritania’s first film nominated for the foreign language film Oscar (losing on Sunday to Poland’s Ida). But what’s more impressive about Timbuktu is its
sophisticated, polished quality despite its obvious low budget, extensive use of natural lighting, and a cast of nonprofessionals mixed in with the professionals. Sissako and Tall’s script wanders through the clay-walled town repressed harshly by a religious faction before laying out the film’s basic conflict. Heavily armed jihadists roam the cramped passageways and narrow streets, announcing on loudspeakers that music and cigarettes are forbidden. And women? They must cover their heads, faces, and hands. These everyday restrictions allow Sissako to address not only the nightmarish conditions but also, surprisingly, to highlight the absurdities. Sissako creates a lyrical, even funny, sequence laden with flowery orchestral music when the local youngsters face an in-

terdiction on soccer. They continue to play, but without the ball, moving up and down the field with imaginary kicks and feints, laughing and enjoying themselves in the faces of their oppressors. Sissako weaves in several story lines, but focuses mainly on cattle herder Kidane (Ibrahim Ahmed) and his wife Satima (Toulou Kiki) and daughter Toya (Layla Mohamed). When a local fisherman kills one of Kidane’s cows, the herder confronts the man and accidentally

kills him. Not long after, the area’s enforcers of Sharia law appear and take Kidane into custody. The head religious official declares that Kidane must make restitution to the farmer’s family with 40 head of cattle. Since Kidane only owns eight cattle, it’s easy to see where the story is headed. Sissako shows an advanced storytelling skill, setting up his premise while also taking time to provide character and locale background. He also displays an advanced knack for camera placement, while telling Kidane’s story and also squeezing in various other plots about an arranged marriage, serenading lovers, a sorceress who keeps all her secrets stashed away in an unplugged refrigerator, and more. In short, Sissako provides much for thought.
COVER STORY
Double down
The Demigs look way, way up in 20-song release
By Lucinda Breeding
Features Editor cbreeding@dentonrc.com
I
t’s been four years since the Demigs have had new music to push. And now? Boy, does the band have some new music. The indie rock four-piece unveils its long-awaited double album Saturday night at Dan’s Silverleaf. Welcome to Hard Times is a chunky record, full of bareknuckle sentiment from Chris Demiglio, the lyricist-in-chief, and a fresher, tighter sound than the band has ever produced. Hard Times sports 20 songs, each more mature and atmospheric than the last. And taken as a body of work, it’s a record of wry, honest feeling set to a soundtrack that bruises as easily as it draws blood. Youthful hope marked Yardling, the Demigs’ 2007 debut, while 2011’s Cities Can Wait felt more aggressive, with in-yourface brawn. Welcome to Hard Times is a more epic offering from wiser (and maybe more psychologically wizened) musicians. But the music sounds far from weary. “Melamine” is full of bright energy and Demiglio’s deceptive tenor — the guy can go all Rufus Wainwright on you, singing about deep wounds but making it sound oh so happy. “Everything Is a Weapon” boils with inconvenient rage. Over on the second disc, “Dead by Monday” is still very much alive. And the final track on the project, “Monochrome Blues,” feels neither monochrome or blue. Rumor had it that Alex Hastings, guitarist, songwriter and recording engineer, kept a tight lid on this newest crop of music from a long-underrated local band. And Hastings admitted that he needed everything to sound right before doing anything like dropping singles or sharing files. “I wanted to make sure everything sounded exactly the

Chris Demiglio’s intricate collages are all over the Demigs’ third full-length release, “Welcome to Hard Times.” way we wanted it to sound,” Hastings said. “We spent probably most of our time working on the recording.” Hastings and Demiglio said they were confident in the musicians who appear on the double album — including Hares on the Moutain member Petra
Kelly on violin, and Will Kremer on cello. Centro-matic alumnus Scott Danbom sat in behind the keys of a Hammond M-2. Jeffrey Barnes plays clarinet, and applies the instrument without the impish giggle he affected when he was still among the members of Brave Combo.
But the long wait, Hastings said, was a matter of making a record that sounded as competently made as the musicians who played on it. “I don’t think there was ever a need to make a double record,” See DEMIGS on 10
The Demigs Album release show with Daniel Markham and RTB2. 10 p.m. Saturday at Dan’s Silverleaf, 103 Industrial St. Doors open at 9 p.m. $10 admission includes a complimentary Demigs album download. Show is open to ages 21 and older only.

TRACK BY TRACK
Welcome to Hard Times, the Demigs “Henry & Maggie” — This closer to the first record is the Demigs at its most indie-folk. Guest musician Petra Kelly’s violin and Alex Hasting’s guitar work are solidly acoustic. The sad song about a woman who cheats on her lover and pays dearly. Or does Harry pay dearly? The bill comes out about even, and the song makes judicious use of keyboard, strings and voice. There are no drums on the track, but you can feel poor Harry’s pulse without them anyway. “Distress Signals” — Early on the second record, it sounds like the band is walking on sunshine, but listen close and you can hear what writer Radclyffe Hall called the “well of loneliness.” But the Demigs dance through the sadness and make the memory a bright one. “Monochrome Blues” — On the final track of the project, the song starts in a waltzing rhythm. Chris Demiglio is gathering his sins together. “Keep catchin’ flack for having faith,” he sings. “Just a sign to me, the end of days is nearly here.” Guest artist Jeffrey Barnes embroiders the sad song with a happy dance. It’s as if Demiglio is visiting a well-worn Irish tune with a clear head and a rock ’n’ roll heart. — Lucinda Breeding
From Page 9
Demigs Demiglio said. “That wasn’t the case.” “Right,” Hastings said. “Cities was supposed to be a double. But it was like, at some point, this needs to be done. I had just joined the band, and I came on with the understanding that one of my jobs was going to be recording the record. So we got to work on Cities, and it was like we were going to spend two or three months knocking out a simple rock album, and the opposite happened.” Demiglio said the band considered recording an EP, but it’s customary for EPs to be shorter projects. And the Demigs had two records’ worth of music. “It felt like they all needed to be on this record,” Demiglio said. While Yardling and Cities Can Wait lifted a veil on the band’s influences — Pavement, dashes of Sebadoh and touches of Local H — Welcome to Hard Times shows the Demigs at their most original and cohesive. Welcome to Hard Times sounds like a Demigs record,
THEY’RE WITH THE BAND The Demigs are: ■ Chris Demiglio — vocals and guitar ■ Alex Hastings — guitar ■ Jason Bacchus — bass ■ Matthew Morin — drums
not like a nascent tribute to favorite influences. “Some of that will boil down to Alex and I playing together for a long time now,” Demiglio said. “As a player, you start melding with the people you spend time with, the people you listen to and who play with you. I think Alex spending as much time learning the craft of recording affected how we play together.” On Hard Times, the Demigs sound like a band that has benefited from its creative duo having some conflicting ideas. Hastings and Demiglio said they don’t see each other as guys with competing visions, though. “No, I wouldn’t say that,” Hastings said. “I think we agree on what we want to do as musicians, and I think we agree on our vision for what this project was going to do. Now, how we
got there? We don’t always get to the same place the same way.” Demiglio agreed. Lyrically, Hard Times feels like Chris Demiglio plowing over scorched earth. Demiglio has honed his gift for observing that sort of everyman simmer in a way that spells out your feelings about the arbitrary way the world always, always works. On the first record, Demiglio packs five years’ worth of frustration into “Pluto,” a song about how the last planet in our solar system had its status changed. And we’ve all been there, gormless and sputtering when a truth rooted in childhood trust is just not the truth anymore, and all because a guy in a lab coat made a pronouncement. Demiglio, dressed up in jangly indie guitar, stands in for us. He bites back at the so-called certainties erased in punchy headlines and cold comfort. “Everything Is a Weapon” is more blatant in its rage. Demiglio wrote it after a real-life event — a job layoff — and imagines how everything on your desk could be used to answer another arbitrary gutpunch. There are lighter songs that
MOVIES Continued from Page 8 numbers rendering of war and battle scenes. The director delivers a series of overly familiar action sequences intercut with also overly familiar domestic scenes of post-traumatic stress. Sienna Miller takes the standard role of understanding wife. Rated R, 134 minutes. — B.A. Black or White A widower raising his biracial granddaughter becomes embroiled in a bitter custody battle when the girl’s paternal grandmother turns up seeking custody. With Kevin Costner, Octavia Spencer and Gillian Jacobs. Written and directed by Mike Binder. Rated PG-13, 121 minutes. — LAT The DUFF ( ★1⁄2)★While it’s neither as biting as Mean Girls nor as sweetly referential as Easy A, the earnest and sometimes amusing The DUFF is a fine addition to the canon of silly teenage misfit stories. Mae Whitman (Arrested Development, Parenthood) stars as Bianca, an overall-wearing overachiever who’s informed by football player Wesley (Robbie Amell) that she’s the Designated Ugly Fat Friend — the one who goes unnoticed till someone wants to gain access to her comparably more beautiful friends. Not likely destined to become the Sixteen Candles for a new generation, The DUFF is still eminently
Margot Robbie and Will Smith star in “Focus,” which opens in theaters Friday. Warner Bros. Pictures watchable and even a bit touching. With Allison Janney and Ken Jeong. Rated PG-13, 104 minutes. — The Associated Press Fifty Shades of Grey ( ★1⁄2)★The hordes that flock to multiplexes to see director Sam Taylor-Johnson’s interpretation of Kelly Marcel’s screenplay of E.L. James’ best-selling novel will find much to like and dislike. The likable elements will leave viewers wanting more, while among the dislikes will surely be a Sopranoslike ending that will send most home unsatisfied, or baffled. Otherwise,
everything else unfolds probably about as expected, with TaylorJohnson chronicling the budding “romance” of mousy English literature major Anastasia Steele (Dakota Johnson) and hunky yet mysterious billionaire Christian Grey (Jamie Dornan). It’s the same old love story: She’s a virgin and wants true love, and he wants to tie her up and whip her. What’s a young couple to do? Rated R, 125 minutes. — B.A. Hot Tub Time Machine 2 When one friend gets shot, three friends fire up their time machine to try to
prevent the attack but accidentally end up in the future. With Rob Corddry, Craig Robinson, Clark Duke and Adam Scott. Written by Josh Heald. Directed by Steve Pink. Rated R, 94 minutes. — LAT The Imitation Game ( ★ 1★ ⁄2) In ★a fact-based story, Benedict Cumberbatch stars as Alan Turing, a Cambridge mathematician recruited at the start of World War II to help break the German code. He succeeds and also invents the prototype of today’s computers, all while struggling to hide his homosexuality. Graham
are still about heavy things. “Distress Signals” goes out to “the girl in the band,” who plays guitar when she’s at home alone. “It rips me in half, ’cause she don’t want to play with me anymore,” Demiglio sings to a peppy bass line. The guitar twangs along and he says, “I miss you, so plug into the board. … Spare me the sitcom romance, and the resolution. Watch my lungs implode like the sun.” The chorus drops for a sweet line or two, but it’s all sunshine in the end. Sonically, Hard Times sounds like Hastings served as the brake to Demiglio’s gas. By the end of the album’s second record, it has a moodier, broader feel. “Playing affected the recording. Melody and counter-melody came into it for us. I know I became more comfortable, too, with space,” Hastings said. “After you’ve been playing a while, making a record can be kind of like painting,” Demiglio said. “You see things you want to add. You change certain things to make it feel the way it feels to you. And you can stare at it and see things you never noticed.” LUCINDA BREEDING can be reached at 940-566-6877. Moore’s script flips among three time periods to give a full portrait of Turing. Keira Knightley plays Turing’s close friend and work mate. Rated PG-13, 114 minutes. — B.A. Jupiter Ascending A house cleaner has her life turned upside down when she is saved from bounty hunters by a genetically engineered ex-military warrior and learns she is intergalactic royalty. With Channing Tatum, Mila Kunis, Sean Bean and Eddie Redmayne. Written and directed by Lana Wachowski and Andy Wachowski. Rated PG-13, 127 minutes. — LAT Kingsman: The Secret Service ( ★ 1★ ⁄2) Colin ★ Firth stars in this fast-paced action thriller from Matthew Vaughn (Kick Ass) as a spy working for England’s super-secret agency, Kingsman. He recruits a young working-class lad (Taron Egerton), trains him and then enlists him in his fight against a lisping supervillain threatening to wipe out the world (Samuel L. Jackson). Highly entertaining blend of the violent and the hilarious. Rated R, 129 minutes. — B.A. Old Fashioned A former frat boy who has given up his partying ways to run an antique shop in a Midwestern college town falls for a freespirited young woman. With Elizabeth Ann Roberts, Rik Swartzwelder and Lejon Woods. Written and directed by Swartzwelder. Rated PG-13, 115 minutes. — LAT
