umors swirled that Gov. Greg Abbott might sign House Bill 40 — the law that prohibits Texas cities from banning fracking — while in Denton for the University of North Texas commencement last Saturday. He didn’t. He waited until he returned to Austin to put his signature on the bill. Speaking of HB40, the Frackettes have produced a new music video lampooning the ban on fracking bans. This troupe of singing, dancing and acting activists sets a send-up of oil and gas fat cats canoodling with elected officials to the tune of the title song from Cabaret. See “The Death of Democracy” for yourself: www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIAuamq57tE. ■ Let’s try to guess what some of the talent on the bill might sing for host Eric Pulido’s All Star Karaoke, a June 5 benefit for the Greater Denton Arts Council at Dan’s Silverleaf. What if George Neal (Hares on the Mountain) covered “Escape (The Piña Colada Song)?” Council member Joey Hawkins could sing “Black Coffee,” and council member Kevin Roden could cover anything by the Red Hot Chili Peppers (get it?). Oh, and has Centro-matic’s Scott Danbom ever sung solo before? ■ True crime writer and former Denton Record-Chronicle police reporter Donna Fielder wrapped an interview with Investigation Discovery, the cable network devoted to crime, for an episode of the new series Epic Mysteries. Fielder’s book about the 2008 murder of Roanoke resident Susan Bailey, who was stabbed to death by her two children and their friend, is due out on Nov. 3. ■ Before dropping his eighth studio album, gospel hip-hop artist Lecrae will release a memo eir, Unashamed. Maybe his alma mater the University of North Texas will pop up in it. His latest record, Anomaly, just won the Billboard Music Award for Top Christian Album. ■ Sue’s Alterations has been a Denton fixture for more than 50 years. Located just off the Square at the corner or Oak and Cedar, proprietor Sue Burt is well known for selling sparkly gowns for all occasions and altering them to fit the owner just right. But who knew?: She also sells Italian-made men’s suits for $130. Sue says she might retire soon, but don’t bet on it. With last weekend’s closure of W. Douglas Antiques, the last pure antiques store has departed the Square. It’s the end of an era downtown. Downtown Mini Mall I and II, may you and your mixture of antiques, secondhand curiosities and straight-up junk continue to thrive, and may the Barrel of Swords never empty.

T
ex Zimmerman and His All-Star Revue present the seventh annual Dylanfest with a concert of Bob Dylan’s gospel music at 7 p.m. Sunday at First Presbyterian Church of Denton, 1114 W. University Drive. Tex and friends will continue the festival at 5 p.m. Monday at Dan’s Silverleaf, where Tex (the alter ego of Denton jazz musician Mike Steinel) will lead his guest artists through a playlist of songs selected from Dylan’s entire career. The annual concerts benefit Instruments of Change, a ministry of Steinel and his wife, Beverly Hoch, a Texas Wom-
an’s University voice instructor. Instruments of Change brings musical instruments — and instruction on how to play them — to at-risk children all over world. The ministry was founded in 2007, and has taken instruments and classes to Haiti and Gaza in Israel. The All-Star Revue includes: Rosana and Gary Eckert and Bruce Wermuth on vocals, guitarist Paul Metzger, bassist Jeffrey Eckels and percussionist Steve Barnes. Both concerts are free, but donations are welcome. To reserve a table at Dan’s Silverleaf, call 940-591-6782. — Lucinda Breeding

A Taste of Herb, Denton’s Herb Alpert tribute band, shown at a 2013 gig, is set to play Twilight Tunes tonight.
Herb-al essence Local outfit revives Tijuana Brass at Twilight Tunes
A
Taste of Herb isn’t your typical tribute band. With a lineup of heavy hitters — both Danny O’Brien and John Weir on trumpet and flugelhorn, and Robert Hokamp on guitar, and a revolv-
ing stable of guests — the local band takes the music of Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass and puts its own spin on it. The band plays Twilight Tunes at 6:30 p.m. today on the downtown Square. Tonight’s show is set for the west lawn of the Courthouse on the Square, 110 W. Hickory St. Attendees should check the Denton Main Street Association’s Facebook page today, when officials said
they will decide whether to move the concert to its rain location at Dan’s Silverleaf, 103 Industrial St. A Taste of Herb interprets the music of Alpert & Tijuana Brass with a combination of playful jazz, warm pop and tight rhythms. “Spanish Flea” is occasionally remade in the image of clever, busy tempos, and “Rise” gets a vaguely beachy, seductive brass remake. Twilight Tunes is in its 22nd
season. The free concert series draws thousands to the Square each Thursday evening through June. The all-ages concert series invites locals and visitors to the downtown Square to set up lawn chairs or spread blankets and get dinner, dessert, coffee or drinks from the restaurants and bars around downtown. Up next week: The Poor Kings, singer-songwriter pop. — Lucinda Breeding

The kids will soon flee school for their annual sabbatical, and they’re ready to impose their collective will on the box office. Fewer movies will be on more screens. Déja vu will rule the roost. Ah, summertime. What’s that? Summer doesn’t really start until June 21? Please. That’s so real world. This is fantasyland.

They’re leading the charge, of course. The new Avengers movie already broke the bank. Fantastic Four (Aug. 7) gets a reboot, as all superhero franchises inevitably do. Ant-Man (July 17) adds to the Marvel pileup, because who didn’t want an Ant-Man franchise? We’re in the midst of massive superhero saturation, but if you want true fan frenzy, you’ll have to wait until next year’s Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice. It might just break the Internet.

You can dig into the history of Saturday Night Live with Live From New York! (June 19). Jason Segel plays the late novelist David Foster Wallace in The End of the Tour (July 31). The Tribe (June 17), from Ukraine, unfolds entirely in sign language. What about the kids, man? What about the kids? As always, there’s plenty to please the ankle-biters. Pixar’s Inside Out (June 19) presents an ambitious premise: The various emotions of a little girl each have personalities, including Amy Poehler’s Joy. Despicable Me’s minions return in Minions (July 10), and I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t kind of excited.

MOVIES Continued from Page 8 Gibson, now Tom Hardy). The dystopian future is still in chaos, everyone’s insane and surviving is a daily routine. Our new bad guy is Immortan Joe (Hugh Keays-Byrne), who has large henchmen, slaves, and five beautiful women he enslaves and rapes. Imperator Furiosa (Charlize Theron) is supposed to take a large army truck to another location to trade some stuff, but inside are the five women she plans to take to the beautiful place she was born — where women aren’t used as sex slaves. Joe’s hunt to get his girls back begins. Max (Hardy), captured by Joe’s henchmen, eventually joins forces with Furiosa to get them to the promised land. Director George Miller and his stunt team took it to the max for this film, and the end result is glorious. Mad Max: Fury Road is one of the greatest and most bonkers movie you will see all year — and perhaps in your lifetime. Rated R, 120 minutes. — C.W. Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 A mall
