Milestone of heritage Events mark 150th years since slavery ended in Texas

DENTON JUNETEENTH Where: Events are at Fred Moore Park, 501 S. Bradshaw St.

enton Juneteenth honors Texas history while it celebrates local heroes and families.

Bradshaw St. The celebration continues on Saturday with a Juneteenth parade, which departs from the Denton Civic Center, 321 E.

Fort Worth roots rocker Mike Ryan dropped a new album last year, and picked up a publishing deal with Sea Gayle in Nashville. He makes another stop in Denton at Rockin' Rodeo on June 25. Courtesy photo

Sincerely sober

Mike Ryan’s latest bears hallmarks of musical, lyrical maturity By Lucinda Breeding Features Editor cbreeding@dentonrc.com

Mike Ryan heard mixed reviews about Nashville before he took a break from Fort Worth to make Bad Reputation. “Down here in Texas, you hear bad stuff about Nashville,” Ryan said. “I went out there and it’s like this: I’m getting the opportunity to write with some of the best in the business. And I’m not trying to write what’s on the radio. I’m getting to write what I want to write, and do it with some of the best. I look at it as an opportunity.” Ryan’s feet are still very much planted in Fort Worth, but when Bad Reputation dropped last fall, the album came out with a neat 10 tracks — each song radio-ready and sporting the kind of hooks that bring pop music fans across the bridge to authentic country and Red Dirt roots music. Ryan’s in good voice, and the guitar work tops that of his 2012 sophomore album, Night Comes Falling. Ryan, who went to University of North Texas,

made Night with his band, a gang of Denton-based musicians who play with Stoney LaRue. Ryan’s career slipped into a faster lane a few years ago when a rep from Sea Gayle Music, a Nashville publishing company, called Ryan for a meeting. “I thought we’d meet and that maybe he’d just want to stay in touch, but he offered me a publishing deal,” Ryan said. Ryan’s pleased with the deal. He said he’s writing with himself in mind, but can write for other artists through Sea Gayle, too. Bad Reputation shows Ryan’s knack for melody, but it also shows a writer who subverts cliches for soulful, evocative results. “Wasting No More Whiskey” upends the tear-in-my-beer heartbreak formula that is triedand-true country grist. In this track, Ryan calls up the godfathers of Delta blues and the ministers of rock in a song that insists that the narrator won’t be drowning his sorrows over lost love. Nope, this time, the troubadour with the guitar will feel the

feelings and sing through the pain. “Everybody talks about why they drink in country music,” Ryan said. “We thought it might be interesting to talk about the reasons not to.” It’s a theme he revives in “When I Drink Beer,” but suspends for the album’s most blues-influenced song, “Dry County Drive.” Ryan’s writing and delivery on Bad Reputation is more assured, more cohesive than his earlier work. He invokes Tom Petty’s driving twang on “Dry County Drive,” and “Putting Off Telling Me Goodbye” bears a spark of Stevie Ray on the guitar. “[Petty] has definitely been an influence. The blues though, definitely, is something that has definitely been something that’s in my bones since I was a kid,” Ryan said. Ryan makes another stop in Denton with a set at Rockin’ Rodeo on June 25. Josh Grider opens. Tickets cost $12 to $15. For advance tickets, visit www.rockinrodeodenton.com.

enton Air Fair Inc. is fueling up the engines for a Father’s Day weekend up in the air. On Saturday, the 2015 Denton Airshow will present pilots and aircraft from around the country in a celebration of aviation at Denton Enterprise Airport, with all proceeds benefiting Cumberland Presbyterian Children’s Home. “It’s a living history lesson,” said Amanda Addington, marketing director for Denton Air Fair. “What you’re getting here is not something that is focused on or taught in schools anymore. This is better than a textbook.” The day starts off with “Breakfast With the Pilots,” sponsored by Rudy’s Country Store and Bar-

The Heritage Flight program, founded in 1997, was built to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Air Force. This will be the first time for the Denton Airshow to have the Heritage Flight, Addington said. To close the show, the U.S. Navy F/A-18F Super Hornet West Coast Demonstration Team takes to

the skies at 2:03 p.m. The team, which is flying fewer than a dozen shows in the U.S. for the 2015 season, will showcase the Navy’s premier fighter plane. Addington said her group has worked closely with the community events coordinator for the city to fit guidelines and make for a safe, enoyable show. She said the demonstrations, along with community outreach by way of meeting the pilots and viewing the aircraft on the ground, allow Denton Air Fair to reach a wide audience to educate people about aviation. “No one on the air show committee is a paid staff member,” Addington said. “It’s about bringing awareness of aviation to the Denton community.” NICHOLAS FRIEDMAN can be reached at 940-566-6897 and via Twitter at @NMFreed.

Joy (voice of Amy Poehler) leads the emotions in 11-yearold Riley’s head — until a mishap — in “Inside Out.” Disney-Pixar

Life of the mind By Chase Whale Film Critic

am 32. How does a 32-yearold review a film meant for children? The exact same way I review any other film: for the intended audience. Sure, it’s much easier to review an R-rated film for adults. But with Pixar’s animated films that enchant adults as much as children — with visuals and stories that adults can really appreciate and relate to (if you didn’t cry at the that opening montage in Up, check your pulse) — reviewing children’s movies are actually quite a treat. Inside Out co-writer-director Pete Docter changed the way we saw animation with his first screenplay, Toy Story. It was a sharp story about being a youngster, something we’ve all experienced and are often nostalgic about. Then director John

Lasseter (A Bug’s Life, Cars) and his team came in and fixed up the story with stunning visuals that changed the movie animation viewing experience forever. Animation looked more real than ever and it was amazing. Now when Docter comes on board for any project, it’s sure to be a massive hit. That said, Docter’s Inside Out (co-directed by Ronaldo Del Carmen) is another win and will please audiences young and old. And it will surely get that Academy Award nomination come January. Full disclosure: I’m reviewing the first 74 minutes of the film. I have a niece who turned 3 last week. I have been aching to take her to see her first movie at the multiplex and we thought Inside Out would be the perfect vehicle for a test run. We went to the press screening and she was having a blast —

actually kept on her 3-D glasses — until a part toward the end that scared her and we had to leave. It’s not a scary movie by any means, but I’m not sure how many 3-year-olds will laugh at giant clowns meant to appear unfriendly and threatening in a kid-friendly movie. Once I saw those suckers, I knew it was probably going to be time to leave. I was correct. We booked it with about 20 minutes left of the movie. Inside Out is a clever film about the importance of family. It’s made in the most unconventional way I’ve seen in film — through the thoughts of a young girl, Riley (voiced by Kaitlyn Dias). When the film opens, she’s born and we become very close with the emotions in her head. The emotions are darling little characters who talk and lead

Pixar’s latest gives voices in our heads fantastic form

Inside Out Rated PG, 94 minutes. Opens Friday.

most of the story: Joy (Amy Poehler), Sadness (Phyllis Smith), Fear (Bill Hader), Anger (Lewis Black) and Disgust (Mindy Kaling). That pretty much covers the feelings we have day-to-day, right? There’s also one more cute character in the film, Riley’s imaginary pal growing up, a pink candy elephant named Bing Bong (Richard Kind). When Inside Out gets going, Riley is 11, and her family moves to San Diego for her father’s job. This is where her emotions have to put in some heavy work. She’s now in her teen angst stage and Joy — who’s become the ring-

leader of the emotions — is having a hard time keeping the happiness going. Things end up going awry for Riley and her emotion Joy — who gets sucked out of the part of Riley’s brain where she controls her happiness. Worse? She’s sucked out with Sadness. But both of them have to get back inside her brain before Riley’s remaining emotions — Fear, Anger and Digust — are the only ones she’ll be left with forever. The race is on. As you may expect form Pixar, Inside Out is full of magical worlds inside just one, and the movie is one of the most colorful of Docter’s career. It’s a film for everyone: you, me and your kids (as long as they aren’t afraid of clowns). CHASE WHALE is a member of the Dallas-Fort Worth Film Critics Association. Read his work on ChaseWhale.com.
