n case you missed it, there’s a video of Denton’s Problem Dogg getting the plug pulled from its now infamous Sept. 3 show at the Abbey Underground. The band’s set sounded a little like a lonely man (and the voices in his head) bathing a colony of feral cats in a rusty barrel drum. The lights turn off at the 4:09 minute mark. Turns out you can make an unholy racket in the dark. See for yourself: http:// bit.ly/1N0hkgj. And here, have a palate cleanser after Problem Dogg: Denton’s Joel Cross is getting love from around the globe for his smart, honest cover of Taylor Swift’s “Shake It Off.” Cross told media outlets he’d gotten lots of requests to cover the song and resisted. Then he obliged, and saw a video of his performance at the Dallas Arboretum picked up by bloggers at Time, MTV.com and Uproxx. Without a trace of pretense or any of the pop-washed girl power of Swift’s version, Cross plays a version that sounds a little indie and a little neo-soul. It’s a quieter reflection on failure and rejection than Swift’s power anthem. Here you go: http:// bit.ly/1LiBv9P. ■ Fort Worth honky-tonker-alternative-rocker Blaine Mitchell told a national TV audience on NBC’s talent show series The Voice that he once took a picture of Blake Shelton eating a meal in Denton. That Denton connection helped lead Blaine to choose Team Blake over coach Gwen Stefani. ■ Denton’s Eli Young Band has scored the coveted New Year’s Eve gig at the world’s largest honky-tonk. The quartet will play Billy Bob’s Texas in Fort Worth on Thursday, Dec 31, then come back Friday night and co-headline a New Year's Day show with the Josh Abbott Band. Get your $12

The band is raising money to be able to make their upcoming tour — and just made their goal. No word on whether they’ll be able to replace the “wacky waving inflatable arm flailing tube man” with the band’s name on it. Read the list of stolen goods here: www.gofundme.com/ pe5afkbw. ■ If you’ve ever had a stirring to make parade art for the twilight parade at Denton’s Day of the Dead Festival, Dallas artists Robert Hamilton and Amy Delp will lead a workshop on making 3-D sugar skulls from 2 to 4 p.m. Oct. 18 at the Patterson-Appleton Arts Center. All materials are provided, and the workshop costs $15 for the public, and $10 for members of the Greater Denton Arts Council. Hamilton, a graduate of University of North Texas’ College of Visual Arts and Design, is the man behind the look of the festival and its flagship variety show, Cirque du Horror. The fall festival — a stylistic gumbo of Halloween and fall carnival fun, with a dash of Dia de los Muertos (provided by participants who show up each year in sugar skull face paint and Mexican garments as well as Halloween costumes) — will be from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Oct. 24 on Hickory and Industrial streets. Speaking of Denton’s Day of the Dead, the Greater Denton Arts Council joined the event this year. The council just opened its exhibit “Day of the Dead” in the Gough Gallery at the arts center, 400 E. Hickory St. The exhibit is a show of traditional and contemporary ofrendas, the ritual altars that Mexicans and Mexican-Americans create to honor dead loved ones during Dia de los Muertos, Nov. 1-2. Each altar is dedicated to dead loved ones — some from Denton. There’s also a community altar, which invites gallery visitors to write the name of a dead loved one on a paper butterfly to be placed on the wall above the altar. Altars were made by the Tri County Regional Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, students of the Hispanic Honor Society and Denton ISD, Ghosts of Denton, Denton Public Library, the festival committee and Oak Street Drafthouse. Admission is free. Gallery hours are 1 to 6 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday.

ishes we’ve come to expect with country music — dramatic pedal steel, girls, beer or pickup trucks. Nor does it bear the mark of outlaw country. Instead, Medicine is an unaffected affair with a few bursts of jazz and lots of straightforward acoustic and amplified sounds. Holcomb is a closer kin to Ricki Lee Jones’ 1980s twangy rock presentation.

Holcomb’s ‘Medicine’ goes down easy
“Shine Like Lightning” is a song straight from the canon of Tom Petty, down to the calland-response “hey-heys,” but renovated with Holcomb’s more driven attitude. Where Petty is eternally laid back, Holcomb spits fire, albeit carefully. Then Holcomb pivots with “Avalanche” and surrenders to a slow-burn kind of yearning that’s more akin to the Rust Belt folk of bluegrass

The Old-Fashioned is traditionally made with bourbon, simple syrup, bitters and citrus peel, but other flavors can add a twist.
Spirited away By Lucinda Breeding Features Editor cbreeding@dentonrc.com
elinda King and Gina Hill chalk up the success of Denton Benefit League’s Boots, Bling & Bourbon night to a particular interest. The bourbon. The American spirit is enjoying such a surge in popularity that in May, The Washington Post reported on the struggle for both lumber companies and the makers of white oak bourbon barrels to keep up with soaring demand. The Denton Benefit League is a local charity that has raised money for local nonprofits — and provided volunteers for them — since about 1973. It’s made up
M
mostly of women. And at the inaugural Boots, Bling & Bourbon fundraiser last year, King and Hill said the gentlemen were pleased. “I think it really included the men more,” said Hill, the chairwoman of the fall fundraiser. “We had bourbon, we had cigars and no monkey suits. What’s not to love for the guys?” The league is probably best known for its annual formal charity ball, which includes ball gowns and tuxedos. Last year, the nonprofit threw a more laid-back party in the fall, to replace its retired holiday fundraiser, Sensational Settings. Boots, Bling & Bourbon fit the bill. It returns this year with key features intact: plates of barbecue, bourbon tasting, ci-
Denton Benefit League strikes it rich with bourbon-tasting fete
gars and raffles of jewelry and other goods. Held at the Lantana Golf Club, the evening features dancing without any stuffy dress code. “It’s casual,” Hill said. “You can come in your jeans.” This year, the event will pour bourbons for tasting, at a $20 charge. The golf club will serve a barbecue dinner, and the Red Dirt-country band GoodnGone will play. Attendees can buy $50 raffle tickets for a chance at a pair of cowboy boots valued at $950. Attendees can also buy raffle tickets for a Yeti cooler and another pair of boots. Cigars can be bought and then smoked on the golf club patio. A pop-up photo booth will give attendees a plum
spot for group shots and selfies. King, the president-elect of the league, said the event will be a come-and-go party.
The bourbon boom The American taste for bourbon has been especially active over since 2010, according to the Distilled Spirits Council of the U.S. Across the country, spirits specialists credit the boom chiefly to two phenomena — a bustling business in craft brewing (which is very much alive and well in Denton), and a romantic nostalgia for the days that associate bourbon with clever, See BOURBON on 10

Bourbon tasteful masculinity and an interest in fine dining. Fortune writer Clay Risen put it like this last year: “A decade ago, the American whiskey industry was flat on its back, having suffered decades of weak sales and underinvestment,” he wrote in a story about the billion-dollar boom. “Today, though, bourbon — the cornbased, barrel-aged spirit that accounts for the vast majority of the whiskey made in America — is everywhere, from Mad Men to the wet bars of C-level office suites, feeding a global ecosystem of tourism, whiskey bars, cocktail competitions, and craft distilleries.” Even in college towns like Denton and Austin, filled with newbie drinkers in the first flush of legal imbibing, young men and women have taken a shine to bourbon, which is oft-advertised as a gentleman’s drink. Case in point: The servers at the brand new Barley & Board, the hip downtown Denton gastropub that promotes craft beers, are just as happy to suggest bourbons listed under the whiskey menu as they are to break down the craft-brewed specials.
Prepare your palate If you want to condition your taste buds for the Benefit League’s bourbon tasting, the Old-Fashioned is an enduring classic. You can pour one at home, or find it at bars across North Texas. The cocktail is most commonly made with four parts: bourbon, simple syrup, bitters, and orange or lemon peel. Dallas bar Parliament’s Old-Fashioned is full-bodied, citrusy, strong. Dallas freelance writer Brooke Burchill found Dallas bars that boast their share of variations on this theme for The Dallas Morning News’ GuideLive.com. Public School 214, a Dallas gastropub, domesticates the drink into a Lavender Vanilla (Four Roses bourbon, lavender simple syrup, vanilla bitters). The result? A drink that’s sweeter than your old man’s OldFashioned. The Mansion Bar, the Rose-

While the nights in North Texas are starting to feel nice and cool, the days are still hot. Fans of bourbon can try these spiked frozen pops to chill out and cool off. BOURBON POPS ■ 1 1⁄4 pounds peaches (4 to 5 tennis ball-sized), halved ■ 3⁄4 cup simple syrup (recipe follows) ■ 1⁄3 cup (or 3 ounces) bourbon or whiskey, plus extra for drinking ■ 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice Simple syrup: ■ 2⁄3 cup of organic cane sugar ■ 2⁄3 cup of water To make the simple syrup, combine sugar and water in a small DMN file photo saucepan and bring to a simmer over Homemade bourbon pops are medium-high heat, poured into a frozen pop mold. stirring until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is transparent. Turn off the heat and let cool. Store in a sealed container in the fridge. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Place the peaches cut side down on a cookie sheet. Bake until the skins and flesh have softened, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool. Once the peaches are cool enough to touch, remove and discard the pits and whir the peaches, skins and all, in a food processor. Feel free to leave the puree somewhat chunky. You should have about 2 cups of puree. Transfer the pureed peaches to a bowl or measuring pitcher with a pouring spout and add the simple syrup, bourbon and lemon juice. Stir until the mixture is well incorporated, and have a glass of bourbon on ice to celebrate your hard work. Pour the mixture into your ice pop molds, leaving a little bit of room at the top for the mixture to expand. Insert sticks and freeze until solid, 4 to 5 hours. Unmold and transfer to plastic bags for storage or serve at once. Makes 10 pops. SOURCE: People’s Pops by Nathalie Jordi, David Carrell and Joel Horowitz (Ten Speed Press, $16.99)

Closer to home, Denton’s Paschall Bar has good word-ofmouth reports on its Old-Fashioned, as well as for its fussier barrel-aged cocktails. And the local bar has just the right vibe for either nursing a shot (or a

OPENING FRIDAY 99 Homes Writer-director Ramin Bahrani (Man Push Cart) has made a career out of socially conscious melodramas by putting a dramatic human face on issues more usually found on editorial pages than entertainment sections. Bahrani’s latest film, “99 Homes,” an examination of the crisis in bank foreclosures and repossessed homes in the guise of a thriller, is his best yet, largely because of a dynamite performance by co-star Michael Shannon that showcases his formidable gifts in a startling way. Shannon is ideally cast as unswerving Florida real estate operator Rick Carver, a man with an eye for the main chance and the foil for the film’s hero, earnest striver Dennis Nash (Andrew Garfield). Rated R, 112 minutes. — Los Angeles Times The Walk (★★★) Can a great third act make a great film? If you’re going to nail one section, the end isn’t a bad place to start. The Walk, a fictionalized rendering of Philippe Petit’s 1974 high-wire stroll between the World Trade Center towers, makes a seductive case. Director Robert Zemeckis and cinematographer Dariusz Wolski have made a truly extraordinary and breathtaking 40 minutes of cinema, preceded by a mostly forgettable, cloyingly whimsical hour and change. Zemeckis and Wolski take the camera to unprecedented angles to make you feel like you are really standing between the 110-story towers. Joseph Gordon-Levitt, sporting fake blue eyes and a thick French accent, embraces the manic showiness and near sociopathy of Petit — an artist with complete tunnel vision. With Ben Kingsley and Charlotte Le Bon. Rated PG, 123 minutes. — The Associated Press
NOW PLAYING Black Mass (★★★★) Director Scott Cooper and a top-flight ensemble led by Johnny Depp have a field day with the tale of James “Whitey” Bulger, at first a minor criminal who became one of the most feared crime bosses in history, ruling his turf for two decades and evading capture for nearly two more. With John Connolly, Benedict Cumberbatch, Kevin Bacon, Peter Sarsgaard and Julianne Nicholson. Based on the book by Dick Lehr and Gerard O’Neil.

This time around, greater attention has been paid to story and character development (while scaling back on all the sight gags) and the substantial results give the ample voice cast and returning director Genndy Tartakovsky more to sink their teeth into, with pleasing results. Having had a change of heart over his monster-only guest policy, Hotel Transylvania proprietor Drac (voiced by Sandler) decides humans are allowed, just in time for the big wedding between his 125year-old daughter, Mavis (Selena Gomez), and her slacker human fiance, Jonathan (Andy Samberg).

Hugh Jackman is a greedy, preening Blackbeard the Pirate in “Pan.”
Shadow dance By Katie Walsh Tribune News Service
The Peter Pan tale is an eternal favorite that infuses just a little bit of magic into everyday life for those who don’t want to grow up. It is rich cinematic territory that has been frequently mined on the big screen: Steven Spielberg put a modern spin on the tale with the classic Hook, in 1991, and now Joe Wright has spun his own version of the tale, an origin story of Peter Pan himself. While it is positioned as a modern take on the classic, Pan doesn’t take place in present day. Peter (Levi Miller) lives in an orphanage in World War II London, under the watchful eye of
MOVIES Continued from Page 10 Oscar-nominated actor Matt Damon is the winning heart of Ridley Scott’s epic space adventure. Affable and intelligent, playful and determined, Damon’s Mark Watney is so endearing and entertaining as a narrator and subject, it’s easy to see why the world would want to save him. The story begins with Watney accidentally left behind during a NASA mission to Mars. He goes about prolonging his

evil, greedy nuns and the blasts of German bombs during the Blitz. He’s an inquisitive boy who asks too many questions for his own good, which leads him to wonder where some of his fellow orphans are disappearing to in the night. Turns out the boys are being trafficked into forced labor, kidnapped by clown pirates into a flying ship that battles Royal Air Force planes before it blasts them into space to the fantastical island of Never Never Land. There, they must mine for fairy dust crystals, sing Nirvana’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit,” and submit to the will of a vain, greedy, preening Blackbeard the Pirate, played fiercely by Hugh Jackman.
After an incident, Peter is disciplined and forced to walk the plank, during which his fledgling flying abilities kick in. This brings the unwanted attention of Blackbeard, who is convinced Peter is the subject of a tribal prophecy — the boy who is the product of a human-fairy union who will lead the rebellion against him. Peter links up with a swaggering cowboy he’s met in the mine, one James Hook (Garrett Hedlund), and they take off in a stolen flying ship to find the tribal territory with warrior princess Tiger Lily (Rooney Mara). They have hopes of finding Peter’s mother, whom he is convinced is present in some form. Things happen in rapid-fire fashion in this plot, which is
stuffed to the gills with twists and turns (and clown pirates, evil nuns, fairy crystals, mermaids, crocodiles and tribal rituals). It all happens so quickly, so colorfully and so theatrically that it feels at times like an insane, bonkers fever dream. The tone swings wildly, never quite finding a groove. The performance choices are either completely over-the-top (Jackman is doing his best Dustin Hoffman-inspired pirate drag), or totally baffling (Hedlund drawling and winking and dropping hokey one-liners). Maybe it was just a hostage mentality, but somehow, in all of the craziness, the world of Never Never Land becomes strangely compelling. Make no mistake, this film falls squarely in the
realm of camp classic, but it’s kind of fun in that very specific way. When the 3-D isn’t overly aggressive, there are some moments of visual genius, such as a memory tree where wood rings come to life to tell the love story of Peter’s mother and father, or memory waters illustrating Blackbeard’s battle against the fairies in bubbles and waves. Pan is a totally odd, wacky endeavor that is amped up by John Powell’s schizophrenic score. It seems Wright threw every idea at this film, to see what stuck and only some of the ideas truly work. But there are a few flickering moments of genius among all of the riotous melee.
survival, knowing it could be years before a manned spacecraft returns to Mars. Meanwhile, NASA director Teddy Sanders (Jeff Daniels at his most clinical) and Mars mission chief Vincent Kapoor (Chiwetel Ejiofor) learn through satellite photos that Watney is alive. As a spokeswoman (Kristin Wiig) scrambles to protect the agency’s public image, the men strategize how to bring the stranded astronaut home. Based on the novel by Andy Weir. Rated PG-13, 141 minutes. — AP Sicario (★★★★) Grisly, disturbing portrait of the malignance and cor-
ruption inherent in the war on drugs. In his debut screenplay, Texas native Taylor Sheridan (best known for his recurring role on Sons of Anarchy) explores the complicated legal and moral territory tread by officials on both sides of the border. Director Denis Villeneuve skillfully brings Sheridan’s story to life. Kate (Emily Blunt) is a by-the-books FBI agent invited to join a covert operation after discovering a house full of corpses owned by a Mexican drug cartel. On board the secret mission, she meets cocky government agent Matt (Josh Brolin) and mysterious operative
Alejandro (Benicio del Toro), both of whom willingly bend the law as their needs dictate. Told she’ll be traveling to El Paso, Kate is whisked into Juarez, Mexico, the drug cartels’ blood-spattered battleground. Alejandro and Matt want the cartel kingpin, and they’re not trying to arrest him.

It’s an especially generous offer given that they’ve never before met Nana and Pop Pop (Deanna Dunagan and Peter McRobbie).
