rganizers of the Denton Empty Bowls luncheon said the event got some streamlining, thanks to local artists and woodturners. A group of volunteers from Christ the Servant Lutheran Church used to meet weekly from April to October to make, fire and glaze pottery bowls for the popular fundraiser. This year, between local potter Bill Reed, the Golden Triangle Woodturners and some Girl Scouts, about 600 handmade bowls were completed in a monthly get-together. “We couldn’t do this without people like Bill and the wood turners,” said Jill Waite, a member of the church group that leads the event. The Empty Bowl luncheon started when an art teacher in Michigan challenged his students to fight hunger in their community. The students answered the challenge by making and selling ceramic bowls and hosting a soup and
“Every year has made more than the last.” — Jill Waite, who helps organize the Denton Empty Bowls luncheon bread meal where shoppers could buy handmade pottery. A community agency then got the money to feed the hungry. Denton is just one community in a national movement that joins potters and nonprofits. In Denton, the interfaith soup kitchen, Our Daily Bread, splits the proceeds of the luncheon with the Denton Community Food Bank. Last year, Waite said the modest luncheon raised more than $14,000. “Every year has made more than the last,” she said. “It’s not that we’ve doubled the amount we’ve raised every year, but we have made more every year,” said Synette Payne,
Luncheon raises money for Denton’s hungry
12TH ANNUAL EMPTY BOWLS LUNCHEON What: A benefit lunch of soup and bread, and a handmade bowl to take home, chosen from a selection made by local potters, wood turners, Christ the Servant Lutheran Church members and Girl Scouts When: 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Saturday Where: Our Daily Bread soup kitchen at St. Andrew Presbyterian Church, 300 W.

a fellow organizer. Waite explained that Reed, a potter who “loves throwing clay on the wheel but hates glazing them,” donated nearly 300 bowls to the ministry. The volunteers glaze and fire them, and on Saturday the bowls will be spread out for shoppers. “The Bill bowls — and we do call them Bill bowls — have developed a sort of following over the last several years,” Waite said. “Bill makes the bowls and he puts a message on the bottom of them. Sometimes the message is really
political. Other times, it’s just what he was doing when he made it, like ‘dog asleep by the wheel’ or that a grandchild was born that day. You can watch people walk up and down the table turning the bowls over to see if there’s a message.” Volunteers will dish out homemade soups: chicken noodle, sweet potato sausage, tomato and gumbo, vegetarian lentil, and chicken with rice. Ravelin Bakery will donate freshly baked bread to the luncheon. — Lucinda Breeding

harles Goolsby and Kelly Upshaw grew up together in Alvin. They parted ways at graduation. It wasn’t long ago when Upshaw, the frontman and lyricist-in-chief of Denton band the Hope Trust, bumped into Goolsby, who works at Texas Woman’s University in the student veterans program. Goolsby served in the Army in Iraq and returned in 2005.
RTB2 — shown at Dan’s Silverleaf during North by 35 Conferette in March — will take a turn on the stage during Saturday’s fundraiser for Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 2205.
TURN IT UP Best bets for music this weekend
“After I bumped into Charlie, I started spending time here at the VFW,” Upshaw said. “The more time I spent here, the more I got to know these other good folks.” The Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 2205 is a modest space in a strip shopping center on Sunset Street. The post is a hybrid. It’s two parts old-fashioned social networking center, with people coming to the “canteen” for an affordable bar tab and the company of fellow soldiers who’ve served in conflicts on foreign soil. It’s also one part resource for people who’ve seen combat and lived to talk about it, said Wayne Trevathan, post commander. “If you’ve served your country in combat, no one knows what you’ve gone through except someone whose gone through it,” said Trevathan, who served in the Vietnam War. “That’s what we’re here for. The thing is, a lot of young soldiers who are serving in Iraq and Afghanistan don’t want to join the VFW.” Post Quartermaster Tim Wells said the local post has come close to closing its doors, partly because the flagging interest of 21st-century American soldiers and partly because of a divide between post and community. It didn’t help matters that the brutal, record-breaking summer heat put the post’s walk-in cooler on the blink. And Wells, a trusty stickler for compliance with state and federal law, said he’s spent two years bringing the post in line

VFW POST 2205 BENEFIT What: A concert to support the Denton Veterans of Foreign Wars post, with the Hope Trust, Tony Ferraro, RTB2, Brent Best, Kelsey Schneider and the King Bucks When: 7 p.m. Saturday Where: Dan’s Silverleaf, 103 Industrial St. Details: $10 suggested donation
The Hope Trust’s Kelly Upshaw and Andy Odom perform during a 2010 show. with IRS demands — a task that cost thousands. Upshaw and Goolsby decided it was time for the post and Denton’s indie music scene to team up to raise money for the post. “I think for both me and Kelly, the goal is to help people,” Goolsby said. Upshaw and Trevathan said they knew this kind of benefit could take some convincing. “We know that people have
a lot of different feelings about Vietnam, about the conflicts the United States has had overseas,” Trevathan said. “Hey, I was in Vietnam, and I get that. I understand. We don’t want to ask people to make any decisions about that stuff. We just want to do everything we can for these kids coming back from Iraq.” Wells, himself a veteran of the Vietnam War, remembers war protesters spitting on
service members when they came home from the jungle. “We have to put that behind us. We the veterans have to put that in the past and leave it,” Wells said. “What’s important is that we can welcome these boys — these gals — coming back from the conflicts we’re in now and making sure they get the help they need. A lot of these kids have post-traumatic stress disorder. That’s a real thing. We can help them.” Upshaw was able to recruit other local bands and acts: Tony Ferraro of Hares on the Mountain and the nowdefunct Eaton Lake Tonics,
Brent Best of Slobberbone and the Drams, and RTB2. The show will hit all the suitable notes. Best deals in driving rock, and RTB2 wrings a heck of a lot of sound out of one guitar and one drum kit. Ferraro and the Hope Trust can make introspective music, but both can rock. The show is meant to be a celebration — both of the music and the camaraderie of the post. “We’re really trying to develop a model to get the community to support the post and the soldiers,” Upshaw said. “And I think all of us are aware that there are a lot of different viewpoints about the conflicts our country is involved in today, and I think we’re aware that there needs to be a dialogue around it. I think we can do that.” Goolsby said that with some partnership, the post will take some steps to being the post that young soldiers could use. “The point is to serve people,” he said. “It’s pretty basic, but we also think it’s pretty important.” — Lucinda Breeding

John Oates made a name for himself as one half of the bestselling American R&B duo of all time, Hall & Oates. He released his third solo album, Mississippi Mile, in April. He’ll perform music from his tribute to the Delta blues in a Denton concert on Nov. 4 at Hailey’s Club. Courtesy photo

ost fans know John Oates as the mustachioed, baritone half of the Grammywinning R&B pop duo Hall & Oates. When he plays the last of his set in Denton on Nov. 4, the singer-songwriter said he hopes to have won new converts to his latest album, the acoustic solo project Mississippi Mile. Since April, when Mississippi Mile
John Oates’ latest solo record packs serious blues heat hit shelves, Oates has been playing the soulful, twang-heavy songs from the album in venues large and small — sans his trademark mustache. “This album is really a musical autobiography,” the singer said while traveling through Colorado. “This music has all those things that made me become a musician.”
John Oates is the headliner of the inaugural Denton County Proper concert and community fundraiser. The brainchild of Denton musician Matthew Gray, Denton County Proper is the latest grassroots multimedia arts and culture project with a blog for a home base. Denton County Proper has a simple mission state-
ment — to promote the area as a hotbed of cultural and artistic productivity while doing good for selected nonprofit agencies. Gray is also the founder and anchor member of the band Matthew and the Arrogant Sea. The Oates concert will be the final event in Denton County Proper’s fundraising weekend for the United Way of Denton County. Gray said he was interested in See OATES on 10

bringing the headliner to Denton based on the quality of Mississippi Mile. The album is bound to rattle die-hard Hall & Oates fans who haven’t heard Oates in any other context than R&B pop. Hall & Oates topped charts in the 1980s with “Sara Smiles,” “Out of Touch,” “I Can’t Go for That (No Can Do),” “Maneater” and “Adult Education.” In this solo project, Oates plays blues with as much authority as Buddy Guy or Stevie Ray Vaughan. When things take a turn for the folksy, Oates wears the simplicity of the form like a second skin. There are some joyful surprises on the album as well. Hall & Oates’ poppy, doo-wop “You’re Making My Dreams Come True” is reimagined as the stuff of Memphis and Sun Records. It works so well, in fact, that you can easily suspect that the song wasn’t first written to be a pop tune. “Oh, no. No,” Oates said. “It was written to be an R&B pop song. Anything I wrote with Daryl was destined to be an R&B pop song. That’s what we do when we work together, no doubt about that. No, how that happened was that I was jamming with these guys. I was playing this blues riff and I jokingly started singing ‘You’re Making My Dreams Come True.’ It went from there.” Oates put together Mississippi Mile with a group of musicians he says “is the most gifted group of musicians in Nashville, and the world, in my opinion.” Performers such as Bekka Bramlett, Sam Bush, Jerry Douglas and co-producer Mike Henderson set out to reproduce the honesty and freshness of a live acoustic performance. “It started out really casually,” Oates said. “I started out with the idea of doing ‘All Shook Up,’ because Elvis was a hero of mine when I was a kid. And I wanted to honor the song but make it my own. These songs are all very simple, and yet, in their simplicity, are quite powerful. “This record is as close to the sphere of the initial recording as you can get. I don’t think we

Oates said acoustic music to play.” As a teenager, Oates kept has always been both risky and
instructional for him. “You know, what acoustic music does is that it boils everything down to that place where you’re doing music the way music is supposed to be played,” he said. “I can enter into that world with confidence. A lot of younger performers don’t experience that. They come into this with the studio trickery, with the production. I think there’s a certain joy to doing music this way, when it’s at its simplest. It’s the greatest thing you can ever do.” Oates lives in the Rocky Mountains on a Colorado ranch he shares with his wife, his son and an extended family that includes dogs, emus, llamas and alpacas. When he’s not writing, recording or touring, Oates said he’s doing as much as he can to mentor up-and-coming artists. He started a singersongwriter series in partnership with the Historic Wheeler Opera House in Aspen, Colo. Titled “The Stories Behind the Songs,” the series brings stars — like Oates, Patty Griffin, Tift Merritt and Jimmy Wayne — into an intimate setting where the songs get the limelight. He’s also a coordinator of the Aspen Songwriters Festival, an event that is along the same model as 35 Denton music festival. “I think we have to mentor young musicians, and this is a good way to do it. We bring in big headliners, and then there are concerts by musicians who are getting attention for their work,” Oates said. “And then there are new artists who are just starting out. The idea is that if you do well there, you can come back the next year and get a bigger show or open for a headliner.” Oates said that Denton seems to be very much a part of a national movement in which people support local music not just by buying it and going to shows, but by creating venues for new musicians to try out their stuff. “That’s the best thing a city can do if they really want to mentor musicians,” he said. “This is a movement, and I think it’s a really good one.” LUCINDA BREEDING can be reached at 940-5666877.

Rated PG-13, 139 minutes. — LAT The Big Year (##1/2) You’d have to really love birding as much as the guys here do to enjoy this strained buddy comedy to its fullest potential. Except for some lovely scenery and a few lively interactions between the three stars — Steve Martin, Owen Wilson and Jack Black — this feels like one long, cross-country schlep. Rated PG, 99 minutes. — The Associated Press A Dolphin Tale (##1/2) Formulaic family film based on the true story of a Clearwater, Fla., boy (Nathan Gamble) who discovers a wounded dolphin on the beach who has lost its tail.

Jeffrey Dean Morgan stars as a police detective who’s on the trail of a murderer in Texas Killing Fields.
Grim reality By Boo Allen
‘Killing’ takes place in an unromantic Texas town
Judging by many popular television dramas, murders are solved, and murderers caught, by beautiful people standing around with other, slightly less beautiful people and trading clever quips in pristine offices in some big city. Texas Killing Fields shows what catching murderers probably really looks like. Texas Killing Fields is a gritty, grim crime drama that sometimes seems to have pieces missing. With a script from Don Ferrarone allegedly based on true events, Ami Canaan Mann directs a taut thriller, filled with shady characters who actually look like they could commit murder.
And the locales and settings look about as real as anything seen on screen since Winter’s Bone. The killing fields of the title lie outside Texas City, a place so miserable, as one character puts it, “even God don’t come here.” The deserted, swampy marshland looks as bleak as any place that could be found in this state, making it a perfect place to dump dead bodies. When several girls go missing, and later when the bodies of several begin popping up in the fields, detectives Mike Souder (Sam Worthington) and Brian Heigh (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) follow obscure leads that send them through the area’s hellish slums. There, they bravely confront the scary
natives. When the detectives suspect the presence of evidence, they cannot afford the luxury of waiting for a warrant. Instead, they barge in. Of course in less than two hours, they dodge a few bullets, take some punches, and embark on a mad car chase that takes them not through carefully marked urban streets, but over train tracks and
through alleyways and junkyards. The end goal of catching the responsible killer, or killers, remains clear, but the pursuit often becomes muddled. Who the two detectives — and later a third, Pam Stall (Jessica Chastain) — are chasing and why remain somewhat vague. In fact, even at the end, a major subplot remains unresolved, thereby leaving the viewer to reflect on other untied threads. But Texas Killing Fields entertainingly combines creepy atmospherics, memorable sleazes, and some high-strung detectives. Taken together, they result in a plausibly authentic look at crime-fighting outside of a glossy television production.
Jonathan Levine, from Will Reiser’s script, artfully blends a lumpy mixture of black humor and morbid insights. Rated R, 99 minutes. — B.A. Ides of March (###1/2) Writerdirector George Clooney also costars in this intricate, effective psy-
chological drama about a young campaign worker (Ryan Gosling) who discovers both the dirty side of politics as well as a realization as to how far he will go to protect himself. Clooney plays one of the candidates, while Philip Seymour Hoffman and
Paul Giamatti are the opposing campaign managers. Rated R, 101 minutes. — B.A. Killer Elite (##) Jason Statham takes the lead role as a mercenary hired to hunt down and kill three former British secret service agents in
London. Clive Owen plays the agent out to stop him, while Robert DeNiro sits captured in an Oman prison. Based on an alleged true story, the film does little more than give Statham a chance to do what he does best. Rated R, 100 minutes. — B.A.
