Rhapsodies BOHEMIAN
Blame the Gun
shouldering the awesome burden of this tragedy for our community.
Thanks to Peter Byrne, Kathleen Finigan and the Peace and Justice Center of Sonoma County for their elucidating and eloquent letters in response to my letter (“Let It Rest,” May 10).
Peter presaged the Bohemian’s Hot Summer Guide with aggressive language like “blasting,” “criminally,” “killer” (I’m one too, but called a “hero” for killing Iraqis in 1991), “splattering . . . automatic gunfire”. Peter concludes that all “white” (Erick’s skin, like mine, is actually closer to pink) cops want to shoot all “colored” children, and county officials value this skill over children’s lives. Absurd!
I agree with the Peace and Justice Center that the tilting scales of justice should be heard at the highest court level. I agree with Kathleen and Judge Smith that Sgt. Gelhaus does not have a license to kill teenagers within three seconds. Contrary to Peter, I think Erick is quite a guy for
Peter, there is no way to nonaggressively carry a toy gun. Is there such a thing as
THIS MODERN WORLD
a toy gun? Like candy cigarettes? What kind of community allows children on city streets with toy guns? Peter and Kathleen’s ad hominem attacks are disappointing, but point to the way language and Goebbels’ Big Lie work to confuse the public. Machiavellian indeed. The refusal of both to use my name (they reference the “writer,” “author,” “this gentleman”) implies they fear the American bogeyman of “the Other.” Like the president fears immigrants. Surprising if Peter or Kathleen have ever carried a weapon for a living or to protect their

community. That’s OK; there are people like Erick to do so for them. Sheriff Freitas vows not to work with ICE at the street level. I support that. I support the Peace and Justice Center’s position on the excessive use of force by all deputies and the corroding influence of Sonoma County’s ubiquitous wineries and breweries. My perspective on culpability is neither skewed, nor do I blame Andy or his parents, though I wonder who let him out of the house with that toy gun. Sonoma County’s Sheriff’s Office may have a “serious problem.” Perhaps the Peace and Justice Center would support me if I ran for sheriff? Finally, I agree with people who believe this case has been ground into fine bits. Time to let Andy, Erick and Sonoma County rest.
JUDGE (RET.) CHRISTOPHER PATRICK MURPHY BERKHEIMER Guerneville
Wicked Witch Donald Trump is a witch. He practices magic, especially black magic, and casts spells over his followers. Even though Trump gave highly classified information to the Russians, advocates the imprisonment of journalists, grabs pussies, disparages the handicapped, obstructs justice with the firing of ex-FBI director James Comey, his supporters are more passionately proTrump than ever before. The only explanation is witchcraft. Recently, I spoke to a Trump supporter, and she explained that she loves Trump because he is a champion of the working class. I said: “Look at what he does, not what he says.” I explained, by way of example, that his healthcare plan would throw 24 million Americans off their healthcare. She just stared at me blankly. The information did not register. Yes, Donald Trump is a witch, and his followers are delusional.

n May 12, the son of my good friends, Marni and Chris Wroth, was killed by Rohnert Park police.
Branch Wroth was in distress. Instead of being helped, he was killed. Despite the instructions of the Taser manufacturer, that people who exhibit “extreme agitation” or “violent irrational behavior” may be “at an increased risk of sudden death,” Branch was Tasered. Eight and a half years ago, Rohnert Park police killed Guy Fernandez for the same reasons, the same way. Recently, on the street a few doors from my house in Santa Rosa, a man started screaming. He was clearly having a mental break. The Santa Rosa police and an ambulance showed up. The police and EMTs spoke with him very gently, very calmly. It went on for a long time. He even ripped boards from a neighbor’s fence trying to escape. They stayed calm. They never hurt him. He was still screaming as they closed the ambulance doors, but nobody was harmed. It can be done. We must demand this of law-enforcement agencies. The Wroth’s request for an independent coroner was denied. The sheriff’s office, which freely uses excessive force, will investigate. Everything about this highlights the inhumanity of this system. We take lives so easily in this country and make every excuse for it. Too many people accept this. We have always thought that earlier forms of punishment—cutting off hands for stealing a loaf of bread, hanging for minor infractions—were barbaric. But they continue to this day, as police are exonerated for killing unarmed people who have committed no crime or crimes equivalent to stealing bread. And instead of paying for a front row seat to the hanging, we can watch on our cell phones. That too many Rohnert Park residents do not seem to object does not make it right. In its May 2000 report, 17 years ago (!), the California Advisory Committee to the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights called for the immediate creation of a civilian review board in Rohnert Park. Seventeen years of arrogance and inaction on the part of that city have followed. The Wroth family’s hearts are breaking. It did not need to be this way.

C Change
Santa Rosans to vote on rent control June 6
S
anta Rosa vice mayor Jack Tibbetts says he struggled over Measure C, the June 6 ballot measure that could enact rent stabilization on some Santa Rosa properties while also creating a just-cause eviction policy for landlords.
The lawn signs announcing the upcoming vote are everywhere; they are huge, and in some parts of town it’s practically neighborto-neighbor competition for the biggest sign on the block: Yes on C! No on C! The gist of opposition mailers showing up in Santa Rosans’ mailboxes in recent days, paid for by the real estate interests, is that
BY TOM GOGOLA
Measure C won’t help the city’s chronic homelessness problem with homelessness and the related affordable housing shortage. But Measure C doesn’t set out to do either of those things, even if they’re a huge priority for Santa Rosa voters on either side of the Measure C question. Mailers pushing opposition to
Measure C are rife with photos and testimonials from young, elderly, Latino, fixed-income and homeless Santa Rosans, all saying they won’t support Measure C because it won’t do anything for their particular housing problem. Those people aren’t paying for the mailers, which were funded by Citizens for Fair & Equitable Housing (created by local opponents to Measure C), rental housing providers and Real Estate Professionals Opposing Measure C. Opponents highlight that Measure C only applies to citizens living in some apartments built before 1995. “Anyone living in a single-family home, condominium, duplex, owneroccupied triplex or an apartment built after 1995 is not covered by the city’s ordinance.” It’s an odd position to take for an effort driven by real estate interests. In effect the messages seems to be: We don’t support rent stabilization in the first place, and even if we did, this ordinance wouldn’t be of any use to most Santa Rosans. According to the mailers, “major funding” for the “No on C” effort came from the statewide California Association of Realtors Issues Mobilization PAC and Woodmont Real Estate Services, a big property-management firm with offices in Sacramento, Belmont and Santa Rosa. Tibbetts is supporting Measure C because of what it sets out to accomplish. “At its most fundamental level,” he says, “Measure C will provide price predictability” for people currently living in housing that is affordable by design and built before 1995. That’s about 20 percent of all housing in Santa Rosa, leaving most rental properties free of any rent-control restrictions in a county where the average rents are among the highest in the country. Opponents argue that enacting rent control on 20 percent of properties could serve to raise the rent on everyone else. If it passes, all landlords in town will be impacted by justcause eviction language, which
Measure C doesn’t expand affordable housing, but it does compel landlords to provide relocation assistance. Tibbetts is supporting Measure C despite what he calls his “internal struggle” over the bill, and his acknowledgement that the measure could create unintended consequences, which he recently laid out in an op-ed in the Press Democrat co-written with Santa Rosa school board member Jenni Klose. The Santa Rosa City Council is split, with John Sawyer, Schwedhelm and Ernesto Olivares in opposition, and Julie Combs, Mayor Chris Coursey and Tibbetts supporting the ordinance. Tibbetts’ concerns track generally with a 2016 report from the California Legislative Analyst’s Office (LAO) that opponents to the measure have been sending around. The mailer says that the LAO report, “Perspectives on Helping LowIncome Californians Afford Housing,” found that policies like Measure C “are not sound solutions to our housing crisis.”
The LAO report said that “facilitating more private housing development in the state’s coastal urban communities would help make housing more affordable for low-income Californians” which, let’s face it, is music to the ears of developers who often characterize the problem of affordable housing as lack of supply. “Existing affordable-housing programs assist only a small proportion of low-income Californians,” the LAO report continued. “Most low-income Californians receive little or no assistance. Expanding affordable housing programs to help these households likely would be extremely challenging and prohibitively expensive.” Measure C doesn’t expand affordable housing, but it does compel landlords to provide relocation assistance for tenants when they are repairing a unit, which in his op-ed Tibbetts acknowledged created a “financial barrier to properly maintaining, rehabilitating and remodeling depressed properties.” Tibbetts also called for the creation of a risk-mitigation pool for landlords who might be wary of accepting tenants with bad credit or with Section 8 vouchers. He notes that Measure C has a sunset clause based on “time rather than a vacancy rate,” where the city council could adjust the ordinance if the vacancy rate was 5 percent over the course of a year. The city is looking to construct more affordable housing in the future, Tibbetts says, but that’s not for a couple of years, and in the meanwhile, Measure C “can be a bridge to get us there.” And the city is cranking up efforts to confront its homelessness problem as residents highlight their growing concern. On May 24, Santa Rosa launched the first of several community forums to tackle the problem. Santa Rosa voters routinely cite homelessness and affordable housing, Tibbetts says, as the top two issues of importance to them.

forbids them from booting tenants so they can, for example, raise the rent for the next tenant. Opponents to the just-cause eviction include former Santa Rosa police chief and current Santa Rosa City councilman Tom Schwedhelm, who says the new rules will make it harder for landlords to evict criminals.
Whale Tale The big news of Memorial Day weekend was the whale, a 79-foot endangered female blue whale that got hit by a ship and washed up on a Bolinas beach and died. A sad and awesome scene played out at the beach through the holiday as visitors and scientists came to take their piece of the majestic animal. On Saturday morning at dawn the whale was still intact, sans its eyes which had been removed by scientists the day before—word on the whalewatch street is it is very rare luck indeed to get the eyes of a dead whale before scavengers peck them out. “I thought it was a metal sculpture,” said a woman on the beach. There were rust-brown circles on the mammoth’s body that did lend it an ancient, sculptural look.The whale was about 20 and birthed a couple calves along the way. There are about 2,800 blue whales off of San Francisco, out of an estimated worldwide population of between 10,000 and 25,000. To describe the aroma coming off the whale is somewhat difficult without stinkshaming the poor departed beast, a powerful, sour smell that endured in the nostril for hours. The blue whale is the largest animal to ever have roamed the earth. The leviathan is lodged in a curving corner of Agate Beach County Park that’s too rocky for any craft to get in there and tow it out to sea, and the beach is too rocky to bury the whale.—Tom Gogola

COMMUNITY MINDED Mark Emmett co-founded the Guerneville Community Alliance to give residents a greater voice.
Helping Hand ark Emmett has been looking out for Guerneville since he moved there 25 years ago.

After retiring from the Alameda County Fire Department, Emmett worked as a general contractor until two back surgeries made him give up manual labor. But he didn’t slow down. He was elected to the Russian River Fire Protection District board of directors in 2014. One of the first things Emmett noticed upon his new appointment was that 20 to 25 percent of the ambulance calls the fire department received were for
the homeless. It takes at least two hours for paramedics to transport someone from Guerneville to a hospital in Santa Rosa and then drive back, during which time there’s no ambulance available in town. Since that realization, Emmett has been at the forefront of trying to remedy Guerneville’s homeless problem and others. “The people who live and work here needed a voice,” Emmett says. “People need to have an avenue to speak up instead of feeling more neglected.” With that in mind, he cofounded the nonprofit Guerneville Community Alliance to work on solving community problems. Homelessness is at the top of the
list. At one of the group’s meetings on homelessness in January, more than 500 people showed up. One of the group’s first projects was to identify homeless encampments and clean them up with the help of Guerneville’s Clean River Alliance. “Our goal is to help and provide services for the people who want help, who want to change, and keep people safe by helping control the people who are abusing substances and engaging in other illegal behavior.” Through this initiative, the organization has worked with the sheriff and private property owners. “We’ve created relationships with the supervisors, Efren Carrillo and now Lynda Hopkins

and with law enforcement; we were even approached by [Sonoma County Sheriff’s Office] Captain Mark Essick, who said, ‘We really need to connect to your organization,’” Emmett says. “We’re working to provide services to people who want help. And what we’ve done with Guerneville law enforcement, it’s really working for the drugs and illegal stuff. The demographics of the town are changing. It’s not just a vacation spot anymore. We’re trying to meet that.” Emmett was pleased that the Guerneville Community Alliance was able to broker a meeting with local merchants, the sheriff’s office and the homeless. “It was so law enforcement and the merchants could hear their stories—it was very dramatic.” Beyond homelessness, Emmett wants to work with other river towns to share ambulance services, and he has his eyes on projects to improve air quality. “I simply love the community,” he says.

Where do you take first-time visitors to Guerneville? They’ve got to go to Armstrong Woods. It pisses me off if they’ve already gone to Muir Woods—they’re so similar, but one’s full of tourists and the other is basically empty where you can be by yourself. What do you know about Guerneville that others don’t? Lots of things since I’m an innkeeper—I can’t tell you though. Fifty feet from where I’m sitting is the tallest redwood tree in Guerneville. It’s absolutely stunning and gigantic. It got hit by lightning a long time ago, and it’s maybe eight feet across. It’s so old that the bark has started to twist. If you could change one thing about Guerneville, what would it be? I like eating outside. I would love to magically make Main Street wide enough to be able to have a 10-foot sidewalk for eating outside [in front of shops]. I think that Guerneville is perfect, with its funky charm and interesting, passionate people, which is definitely what I’d like to keep.

Popping Up
Flavors of Mexico make an appearance at Sebastopol’s Ramen Gaijin BY STETT HOLBROOK
I
f the folks at Sebastopol’s Ramen Gaijin are throwing a pop-up dinner, it’s worth taking note.
Ramen Gaijin, as you may recall, was born as a pop-up at neighboring Woodfour Brewing Co. It was such a hit founders Moishe Hahn-Schuman and Matthew Williams set out on their
own in 2014 to open their own place, now one of the busiest—and best—restaurants in town. It’s not Hahn-Schuman and Williams behind this pop-up, but one of their more adventurous cooks, Ruben Alcaraz and his buddy Raul Mendez, a sous chef at Napa’s 1313 Main. The duo are creating a rootsy, eclectic ode to the flavors of Mexico City, particularly the
street food from the city’s upscale Polanco neighborhood. That’s what the one-night-only restaurant will be called: Polanco. It run 5–9pm June 5. For fans of Mexican food willing to travel far beyond burritos and quesadillas, it’s not to be missed. Let’s start with the corn, one of the foundations of central and southern Mexican cuisine. The corn (or hominy in this case)
Alcaraz and Mendez will be using comes from artisanal growers in Oaxaca. Alcaraz says the variety is more than a thousand years old and GMO-free. “To eat something that’s been handcrafted by the Aztecs and Mayans from a thousand years ago is pretty unique,” he says. They’ll be grinding the grain on-site for tortillas and tamales, and it will also used in a pozole rojo, a chile-laced pork and hominy stew. Other dishes on the nine-item menu include roasted corn with a powdered grasshopper aioli, birria tacos made with goat meat marinated for 10 days and tamales served with duck confit and a 120day mole made with more than 100 ingredients. “Every week my partner gives it a stir to get the mole to emulsify, age and keep fermenting,” Alcaraz says. “We don’t know how people are going to take it. Some people might really dig it, but some people might be like, ‘Wow, this is too much for me. I’ve never exposed my palate to those kinds of flavors.’” There will be cocktails, too, but don’t expect Margaritas. Alcaraz has created four tequila and mezcal cocktails, and borrowed the Oaxaca Manhattan from New York’s Death & Co. One drink he’s created features jicama juice with mescal and another is a riff on a White Russian made with horchata. Alcaraz is taking a wait-and-see approach to future pop-ups, but the effort is clearly a passion project for him. He did a taco-centric pop-up at Ramen Gaijin last year, but Polanco is more ambitious. “It’s something I always wanted to do. I just had it in me, and I was tired of having to go to El Molino Central all the way in Sonoma just to get some good Mexican food. Why can’t we do it here?” To make reservations for Polanco, call Ramen Gaijin at 707.827.3609.
Hop Along Exploring IPA with attitude BY JAMES KNIGHT
T
he wealth of IPA brands competing on the beer aisle is no boon to fans of different styles—even a red ale must be a “red IPA” to get a little shelf space. But for this week only, I’ll check my attitude and explore some surprising local variation within the category:
Cloverdale Ale Floyd IPA Fresh hops on the vine meet a grainy, biscuity note, and there’s a juicy, citrus zest to balance the bitter hop finish. All-around classic California IPA from Ruth McGowan’s brew pub. (6.7 percent ABV.)

Brew
Third Street Aleworks Bodega Head IPA Although named for the Sonoma Coast’s famed promontory, the aroma and hop profile point to the east: grainy, earthy and complex, this reminds me of a spicy but mellow British IPA like Belhaven’s Twisted Thistle. (7.1 percent ABV.) Sonoma Springs Subliminal Gold IPA Ach, even the rare microbrewery that specializes in authentic German-style beer has to pimp an IPA on the market to survive? Doch—this is “subliminal” after all: it’s like a hopped-up version of the brewery’s Kölschstyle ale, with a hop list that includes Hallertau Blanc. If you want to keep up with the IPAdrinking crowd, but really just want a more awesome version of a traditional American beer style with German roots, this is the ticket. (7 percent ABV.) Fogbelt Del Norte IPA Last time we visited Fogbelt, it was for their freshly harvested, wet-hop aromas. Here, the aroma is more like a fresh bag of hop pellets—it’s pleasant, just different. An ambertinted classic with rich ale flavor and tangy citrus. (7 percent ABV.) St. Florian’s Flashover IPA Also losing “India Pale Ale” points for being not so pale, this earthily hopped, malty brew wins them back for balance. (7.3 percent ABV.) Bear Republic Hop Shovel IPA Promising a shovelful of hops, this light gold, mellow IPA suggests lemon blossoms and ends up in the piney, citrusy camp. (7.5 percent ABV.) Lagunitas IPA I wanted to include this best-selling, Petalumaborn IPA (6.2 percent ABV) as a baseline of the ultra-piney-hoppy, unabashedly bitter West Coast IPA style—but what happened here? This bottle, from six-pack, has oddly fruity, chewing-gum notes but not much more of interest. Old bottle, or new direction? In any case, I’ll stick with the brewery’s “Onehitter Series” like the latest Waldos Special Ale, with its sweet, resiny Lagunitas hop profile turned up to—well, over 11. At 11.9 percent ABV this is more like a double or triple IPA, and that’s a story for another day.

Out Down But Not
BY TOM GOGOLA

A
s an increasingly disgraced White House bullies its way from one feckless and embarrassing outrage to the next, LGBTQ+ activists and advocates in the North Bay and across the country are grappling with the same despair that hangs in the air for many Americans.
For the LGBTQ+ communities of the North Bay, advocates already face fallout from Trump’s ramped-up deportation efforts, of special concern in a rural region that lacks the queer-dedicated resources of San Francisco, and where LGBTQ+ noncitizens face a cruel double- or triplevulnerability—to be young, undocumented and gay. “I’m not living that experience, but there is already a huge sense of fear, of being LGBT-identified, and then this huge undercurrent of being deported. It creates a whole different dynamic for an individual and a culture,” says Javier RiveraRosales, director of Positive Images in Santa Rosa, an advocacy and outreach group that works with LGBTQ+ youth from around Sonoma County. “It jeopardizes stability and rootedness that this is the only thing they know; this is their home.” Rivera-Rosales highlights the difficulty in out-front advocacy and outreach in the current climate of fear, where some undocumented LGBTQ+’s retreat to isolation or loneliness. Others become empowered and speak out. “People who don’t disclose their status are still speaking out and being that advocate,” Rivera-Rosales says. Even still, he continues, “one of the biggest things I see is that fear component.” Youth facing deportation are also ensnared in cultural and familial issues. “What is your relation to your family and your friends to your queerness, your gender identity, your sexual orientation?” he asks. “I know
folks personally that don’t feel safe in either category.” And even when a Latino LGBTQ+ teen goes to the group where people share their identity, he says those queer spaces “are not always comfortable because there’s not a lot of people of color or people from other backgrounds in Sonoma County.” That sense of fear is something that Eric Sawyer can speak to as one of the founders of the AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power (ACT-UP) in the 1980s. The lifelong HIV/AIDS and humanrights worker is pessimistic about the state of the union as he tees off in a phone interview from New York about a country that has “actually elected someone who has no qualifications whatsoever to be the [president] of the United States and is bringing with him a cadre of imbeciles and incompetent pilferers. Selfabsorbed me-me-me vacuum cleaners trying to dry the world of every natural resource, anything of value to enrich themselves.” ACT-UP’s media-savvy activism spurred public attention and worldwide action that helped save Sawyer’s life and those of countless others during the height of the AIDS epidemic. He rattles off proposed environmental cuts and giveaways under consideration by the White House, including “the National Park Service, the EPA, the right to drill in the ocean anywhere, in any national park,” as he engages with the present level of frustration he feels and the proper response to it. Sawyer says the feeling of
despair in the air is very much like the early days of ACT-UP as an indifferent and/or homophobic media and political class wrote off the deaths as isolated incidents, while “a plague [was] decimating the gay community and IV drug users and other vulnerable groups.” The difference between now and then was that during the Reagan era, for all its flaws and faults, the vulnerable and alreadytrampled weren’t also dealing with “the widespread degradation of American society, the rule of law and our government,” Sawyer adds. “It’s clear that some of these pariahs that are in the White House for whatever reason, really want to collapse society, and I can only suppose it’s so they can rape and pillage it. I don’t understand why there is not revolution in the streets. It’s fucking unbelievable.” An earlier generation of gay men faced down a flatly homophobic culture as they took the first steps out of the closet. Emmy Awardwinning filmmaker John Scagliotti came out of a 1960s anti-war generation that broke numerous social and cultural barriers to pave the way for a nation where, a half century after the 1969 Stonewall riots, gay marriage is now a constitutionally protected right. At least for now. Scagliotti was an activist during a period when life and death for many young people was answered through the question of whether they’d be sent to Vietnam or not. His Before Stonewall is one of several films he made that details LGBTQ+ history in the United States. Scagliotti says that despite the urgent depravity of the current spectacle underway in Washington, he’s not convinced America is cracking up under the strain of its multiple ailments as he considers whether ACT-UP– style activism—confrontational, media-savvy and unrelenting—is a product of the times. ) 16

Arts Ideas JAZZ ROYALTY Jimmy (left) and Tootie Heath are true jazz ambassadors who have rubbed elbows
with many of the world’s greats, like Miles Davis, Ray Charles and Dizzy Gillespie.
High Toned
Legendary Heath Brothers headed to Healdsburg Jazz Festival BY TOM GOGOLA
T
enor saxophonist Jimmy Heath has been to California before. He’s been playing in the state since 1949, and comes to the Healdsburg Jazz festival with the Heath Brothers for the festival that runs June 2–11.
The latest iteration of the Heath Brothers features Jimmy and his brother and drummer Albert “Tootie” Heath, pianist Jeff Patton and bassist David Wong, who
replaced the late Percy Heath who died in 2005. Percy was the eldest of the three brothers who comprised the core of the original legendary Heath Brothers lineup of the 1970s. Jazz festival attendees can expect originals and Broadway standards from the band, “so people can hear something that they remember,” says Jimmy by phone from Loganville, Ga. Heath is a retired music professor who taught at Queens College in New York City and went on to hire his former student.
The elder of jazz has a sharp and witty professor’s tone when he laments some of the more modern music he hears. “They call it ‘new music,’ and some of it leaves a little to be desired,” he says with a laugh. “There’s no melody, there’s no harmony—it’s got words and a beat, and they call that music!” Jimmy’s a true jazz ambassador with more than 130 compositions to his name, which have been recorded by the likes of Miles Davis, Dexter Gordon, Dizzy Gillespie and Ray Charles.
He still teaches master jazz classes around the world and performs with orchestras. And he’s part of an ever-evolving American jazz history where “there has always been people who are trying to find something different, avant garde or whatever you want to call it,” he says. That’s the classic tension in jazz, between melody and spontaneity, and “sometimes you leave the public behind when you go too far out—people want a melody that they can hold on to and remember. You have to find a medium position, a middle ground—that’s me. I’m going to take a little chance musically here and there, but basically I’m a human being playing for human beings, and I’m not going to run them out of the place.” The Heath Brothers address issues of social inequality and discrimination in their music. Jimmy recalls a North Carolina Jim Crow childhood that offered education that was separate but by no means equal, where white kids could graduate after the 12th grade but where available education for blacks ended after the 11th. “We’ve been through this kind of thing before,” he says. But enough politics. There’s a stellar week of jazz coming up, and the Heath Brothers are holding down the multicultural fort, where the only tone that matters is a musical one. The band’s got a bassist who is Jewish and Chinese, and a white guy on piano “who is like another Heath Brother,” Jimmy says. “This is the world I love—people who are together as one.” Heath Brothers with the Bobby Hutcherson Tribute Band, June 3 at Jackson Theater, 4400 Day School Place, Santa Rosa. 7pm. $35-$75

Bohemian: You guys formed in Tampa. What’s the scene there like and how do you fit in? Tampa has a strong history of what I guess could be called “extreme music”—death metal, thrash, punk, hardcore. That’s the stuff we all grew up on and what got us into playing in bands. As time passes, I personally feel more disconnected from any sort of scene. I’m on the fringes these days. Most people think we’re a British band anyway . . . You’ve been through several lineup and style changes since forming in 2008, how did you approach the new album?
TOUCHY FEELY Merchandise are not a U.K. band. They only sound like one.
Wired to Wow
An interview with Tampa post-punks Merchandise BY CHARLIE SWANSON
F
lorida’s premiere new wave misanthropes Merchandise make the most of their post-punk bedlam on the band’s latest album, A Corpse Wired for Sound. Shimmering guitars, dour vocals, electronic drum beats and a psychedelic synthesizer all combine for a sound that melts expectations and swirls with seductive sonic intensity.
52 W. 6th Street, Santa Rosa, CA 95401
Currently touring the United States with Brooklyn rockers B Boys, Merchandise’s Dave Vassalotti (guitar, electronics) talks about the band’s roots, style and favorite thing to buy at concerts.
We tried the “full band” thing for the previous LP, After the End, and while it did work well in some aspects, it wasn’t as natural for us as we had expected. The new LP was cut in a similar fashion to how we did the old records—just lots of work on building the songs in the studio with little regard for how to play them live. Less cooks in the kitchen. It’s a better way to work! Do you guys feel locked in sonically now? Or does the band continue to experiment? We’ve always tried to fight being locked in to any particular sound, but it can be hard. We still have a lot of the new wave “Y’all sound like the Smiths” thing going on, even though we try actively to avoid it. We’ve been working with a new drummer who has tons of great and diverse creative input, so whatever we end up doing next may end up being drastically different. We want to move away from “songs” in the traditional sense, but not in a knee-jerk reactionary way. It should all come from a natural development and evolution. We’re taking things slow. When you go to a concert, what's your favorite type of merchandise to buy from a band? LPs, duh! If there’s a book, maybe that too, but I’m foremost a record guy. Merchandise hit the North Bay with B Boys, Marbled Eye and the Down House on Monday, June 5 at Arlene Francis Center, 99 Sixth St., Santa Rosa. 7pm. $10–$12. 707.528.3009.

New works by Maria Isabel Lopez
Maria Isabel Lopez comes to the Sonoma County arts scene via an unusual path that has taken her from a Philippines barrio to the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival. Along the way, the former actress nurtured her love of visual art. These days, that love of art inspires Lopez to experiment with mosaics and ceramics. She’s spent the last few years in Manila and Sebastopol studying new mosaic techniques. Her work will be on display at Art at the Source’s open studio showing next week. Art at the Source is a free, self-guided tour of some 160 West County artist studios. Lopez’s art is made up of human-made materials and stones. “It features a lot of quartz, lapis lazuli and chalcopyrite, since I’m fascinated by the color purple and its natural iridescence,” says Lopez. Religious and natural symbols—crucifixes, trees, the yin and yang symbol—are a common element in her work. “My inspiration comes from that higher spiritual source. I am so limited on my own as a human, and my art is a way of giving gratitude.” Art at the Source runs 10am to 5pm, June 3–4 and 10–11. Lopez’s studio is at 1313 Scheibel Lane in Sebastopol.

The long road to legalization
n the euphoric aftermath of marijuana-legalization victories in California, Maine, Massachusetts and Nevada last November, the marijuana blogosphere was alive with predictions about which states would be next to free the weed. But unlike the first eight states, which all legalized it via the initiative and referendum process, for legalization to win this year it would have to be through state legislatures. Yet here we are, nearing the halfway point of 2017, and we’re not seeing it. And we’re unlikely to see it for the rest of this year. The states that had the best shots are seeing their legislative sessions end without bills being passed, and while bills are alive in a couple of states—Delaware and New Jersey—they’re not likely to pass this year either. To be fair, we have seen significant progress in state legislatures. More legalization bills have been filed than ever before, and in some states, they are advancing like never before.
In Vermont, a bill actually got through the legislature, only to fall victim to the governor’s veto pen. Actually getting a legalization bill past both houses of a legislature and a governor has yet to happen. And while there is rising popular clamor—buoyed by favorable opinion polls—for state legislatures to end pot prohibition, the advocacy group most deeply involved in state-level legalization efforts, the Marijuana Policy Project (MPP), understands the difficulties and intricacies of working at the statehouse. The MPP has worked hard but made no promises for victory this year, instead saying it is committed to “ending prohibition in eight more states by 2019.” That MPP list doesn’t include initiative states, of which we could see a handful next year. The MPP is already involved in Michigan, where legalization is polling above 50 percent, and first-stage initiative campaigns are underway in Arizona, Arkansas, Missouri and the Dakotas. It would be disappointing for reform advocates if they had to wait until November 2018 to win another legalization victory through popular vote, and given the progress made in statehouses this year, they hope they won’t have to. Still, legalization at the state house is proving a tough row to hoe. For reform advocates, it’s a case of the glass half full. “This is still a historic time,” says Justin Strekal, political director for the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws. “We’ve had great victories in the past 10 years, but they’ve all been through the initiative process. Now, with the polls continuing to show majorities favoring outright legalization, legislators are feeling more emboldened to represent their constituents, but it won’t happen overnight.” Phillip Smith is editor of the AlterNet Drug Reporter and author of the ‘Drug War Chronicle.’

ARIES (March 21–April 19) Life is in the mood to communicate with you rather lyrically. Here are just a few of the signs and portents you may encounter, along with theories about their meaning. If you overhear a lullaby, it’s time to seek the influence of a tender, nurturing source. If you see a type of fruit or flower you don’t recognize, it means you have a buried potential you don’t know much about, and you’re ready to explore it further. If you spy a playing card in an unexpected place, trust serendipity to bring you what you need. If a loud noise arrives near a moment of decision: Traditionally it signifies caution, but these days it suggests you should be bold. TAURUS (April 20–May 20) Your body is holy
and magic and precious. I advise you not to sell it or rent it or compromise it in any way—especially now, when you have an opening to upgrade your relationship with it. Yes, Taurus, it’s time to attend to your sweet flesh and blood with consummate care. Find out exactly what your amazing organism needs to feel its best. Lavish it with pleasure and healing. Treat it as you would a beloved child or animal. I also hope you will have intimate conversations with the cells that compose your body. Let them know you love and appreciate them. Tell them you’re ready to collaborate on a higher level.
GEMINI (May 21–June 20) “The most intense moments the universe has ever known are the next 15 seconds,” said philosopher Terence McKenna. He was naming a central principle of reality: that every new NOW is a harvest of everything that has ever happened; every fresh moment is a blast of novelty that arises in response to the sum total of all history’s adventures. This is always true, of course. But I suspect the phenomenon will be especially pronounced for you in the near future. More than usual, you may find that every day is packed with interesting feelings and poignant fun and epic realizations. This could be pleasurable, but also overwhelming. Luckily, you have the personal power necessary to make good use of the intensity. CANCER (June 21–July 22) Nobody likes to be scrutinized or critiqued or judged. But we Crabs (yes, I’m one of you) are probably touchier about that treatment than any other sign of the zodiac. (Hypersensitivity is a trait that many astrologers ascribe to Cancerians.) However, many of us do allow one particular faultfinder to deride us: the nagging voice in the back of our heads. Sometimes we even give free rein to its barbs. But I would like to propose a transformation of this situation. Maybe we could scold ourselves less, and be a bit more open to constructive feedback coming from other people. Starting now.

LEO (July 23–August 22) The lion’s potency, boldness, and majesty are qualities you have a mandate to cultivate in the next three weeks. To get in the righteous mood, I suggest you gaze upon images and videos of lions. Come up with your own version of a lion’s roar—I mean actually make that sound—and unleash it regularly. You might also want to try the yoga posture known as the lion pose. If you’re unfamiliar with it, go here for tips: tinyurl.com/lionpose. What else might help you invoke and express the unfettered leonine spirit? VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): “What does it matter how many lovers you have if none of them gives you the universe?” French psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan posed that question. I invite you to put it at the top of your list of hot topics to meditate on. In doing so, I trust you won’t use it as an excuse to disparage your companions for their inadequacies. Rather, I hope it will mobilize you to supercharge your intimate alliances; to deepen your awareness of the synergistic beauty you could create together; to heighten your ability to be given the universe by those whose fates are interwoven with yours. LIBRA (September 23–October 22)
From my study of the lost prophecies of Nostradamus, the hidden chambers beneath the Great Pyramid of Cheops, and the current astrological omens, I have determined that now is a favorable time for you to sing liberation songs with cheeky authority . . . to kiss the sky and dance with
BY ROB BREZSNY
the wind on a beach or hilltop . . . to gather your most imaginative allies and brainstorm about what you really want to do in the next five years. Do you dare to slip away from business-as-usual so you can play in the enchanted land of what-if? If you’re smart, you will escape the grind and grime of the daily rhythm so you can expand your mind to the next largest size.
SCORPIO (October 23–November 21)
“On some hill of despair,” wrote poet Galway Kinnell, “the bonfire you kindle can light the great sky—though it’s true, of course, to make it burn you have to throw yourself in.” You may not exactly feel despair, Scorpio. But I suspect you are in the throes of an acute questioning that makes you feel close to the edge of forever. Please consider the possibility that it’s a favorable time to find out just how much light and heat are hidden inside you. Your ache for primal fun and your longing to accelerate your soul’s education are converging with your quest to summon a deeper, wilder brilliance.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22–December 21) You’re in a phase when you have the power to find answers to questions that have stumped you for a while. Why? Because you’re more open-minded and curious than usual. You’re also ready to be brazenly honest with yourself. Congrats! In light of the fact that you’ll be lucky at solving riddles, I’ve got three good ones for you to wrestle with. 1. Which of your anxieties may actually be cover-ups for a lazy refusal to change a bad habit? 2. What resource will you use more efficiently when you stop trying to make it do things it’s not designed to do? 3. What blessing will you receive as soon as you give a clear signal that you are ready for it?
CAPRICORN (December 22–January 19) A typical Capricorn cultivates fervent passions, even to the point of obsession. Almost no one knows their magnitude, though, because the members of your tribe often pursue their fulfillment with methodical, business-like focus. But I wonder if maybe it’s a good time to reveal more of the raw force of this driving energy than you usually do. It might humanize you in the eyes of potential helpers who see you as too strong to need help. And it could motivate your allies to provide the extra support and understanding you’ll need in the coming weeks. AQUARIUS (January 20–February 18) In accordance with the astrological omens, I invite you to carry out a flashy flirtation with the color red. I dare you to wear red clothes and red jewelry. Buy yourself red roses. Sip red wine and savor strawberries under red lights. Sing Elvis Costello’s “The Angels Want to Wear My Red Shoes” and Prince’s “Little Red Corvette.” Tell everyone why 2017 is a red-letter year for you. For extra credit, murmur the following motto whenever a splash of red teases and pleases your imagination: “My red-hot passion is my version of high fashion.” PISCES (February 19–March 20)
“If you want a puppy, start by asking for a pony,” read the bumper sticker on the Lexus SUV I saw. That confused me. Would the owner of a Lexus SUV be the type of person who didn’t expect to get what she really wanted? In any case, Pisces, I’m conveying a version of this bumper-sticker wisdom to you. If you want your domestic scene to thrive even more than it already does, ask for a feng shui master to redesign your environment so it has a perfect flow of energy. If you want a community that activates the best in you, ask for a utopian village full of emotionally intelligent activists. If you want to be animated by a focused goal that motivates you to wake up excited each morning, ask for a glorious assignment that will help save the world.
