MOVIE MAN Are you hunting for well-worded film reviews? Look no further than Astoria’s Video Horizons

I

browsed the aisles of new releases at Video Horizons in Astoria. Behind me, a dot matrix printer chugged out a receipt, a soothing tactile sound in a world gone digital untouchable mad. A yellow sticky note with some handwriting in ink caught my eye. It was a review — a 50-word review of a Sean Penn action thriller totally unknown to me, “The Gunman.” I started reading it: “I’ve always been a sucker for action movies. Cheap ones. Expensive ones. Good and bad alike…” Hey, me too! I thought. I had to see this ¿lm, but not today I wasn’t in the mood for violence. I kept browsing. Another review. I read that one too: for a Western I’d never heard about, “The Salvation.” I love Westerns! I miss Westerns! Shane come back! The review opened with this zinger: “Part Leone, part Eastwood, a dash of Tarantino, and a couple of shakes of Chuck Norris. Pure awesome.” What a great description! I thought. I’ll see this ¿lm too, but later. I wanted something a bit more quiet, introspective. I kept moving, more browsing, more reviews. I read them all and quickly recognized I was reading a master terse movie reviewer. In longhand! You can say a lot in 50 words if you know how to write and care about the subject. These reviews were living proof of that axiom. His byline read “Wayne.” Who was this fantastic reviewer? This Wayne, The Movie Man?

Submitted photo

“The Gunman,” a film starring Sean Penn, is another pick by Wayne.

Submitted photo

“The Salvation” is a Western pick by Wayne.

I had to know, so I went up to Neal Cummings, owner of Video Horizons, and asked about Wayne. Neal told me that a while back he asked his employees to sit down and write a review of a new release on an index card. In short time, Wayne emerged as a prolific reviewer. “Wayne is by far the

best,” said Neal. “Many people ask who Wayne is, and they follow his work. You’re not the only one.” Wayne used to work Sundays at Video Horizons but had to quit after getting more hours at his other job in Seaside. That didn’t curtail his passion for movies, however. Wayne wanted to keep seeing new releases, so he now picks out a few when they arrive on Thursday and has until Tuesday when the new release hit the shelves to turn in two or three reviews. He’s a writer with a deadline, and he always delivers. After browsing for 20 minutes, I settled on “Rudderless,” the story of a father whose musician son is killed in a college campus shooting. The father falls apart after the murder but slowly puts himself back together through playing his son’s songs solo, and then later, with a band. Wayne opened his review of “Rudderless” with this, “I didn’t see this movie coming.” Neither did I. “Rudderless” was one of the best understated ¿lms I’ve seen in a long, long time, and a handwritten review sold me on it. You don’t get that from an algorithm off NetÀix or Amazon and never will. Thank you Wayne. By the way, in all the reviews I read, I didn’t encounter a single grammatical error or typo. As an English teacher, I appreciate that. It makes me trust Wayne’s opinions all that much more. Matt Love lives in Astoria and is the author/editor of 14 books about Oregon, including “A Nice Piece of Astoria: A Narrative Guide” and “The Great Birthright: An Oregon Novel.” They are available at coastal bookstores and through www.nestuccaspitpress.com.

You can say a lot in 50 words if you know how to write and care about the subject. These reviews were living proof of that axiom.

While browsing movie options at Video Horizons in Astoria, Coast Weekend contributor Matt Love sumbled upon “Rudderless” — and a hand-written review by Wayne that reads, “I didn’t see this movie coming. That’s a good thing. The story, acting, music and direction all come together seamlessly to create one beautiful film. Congrats, William H. Macy on a superb directorial debut. Watch it. You’re welcome.”

Astoria bands Misé, Holiday Friends to play Fort George ASTORIA — Fort George Brewery brings two Astoria bands to the stage Sunday, Sept. 13: Misé and Holiday Friends. The show starts at 8 p.m., is open to all ages, and there is no cover. Misé stands as an example of differentiation within a community while also sticking to its roots. Originally a solo act, Cooper L. Trail would sing, loop guitars, and play a small drum-kit during his set, starting when hew as 17. Now rounded out by Nevada Sowle, the duo has settled in Astoria and just released their sophomore album, “Arts & Crafts.” Although Astoria is best known to multiple generations of pop-culture observers as the cinematic setting of the ‘80s cult-classic “The Goonies,” the rugged riverfront city now has another distinction: as the home of the fab new pop-rock combo known as Holiday Friends. On its uplifting debut album “Major Magic,” the spirited quintet — singer-guitarist Scott Fagerland and singer-keyboardist Jesse Wityczak, who share most of the band’s songwriting duties, plus Scott’s brother Jon Fagerland on guitar, keys and vocals, bassist Zack O’Connor and drummer Joey Ficken — deliver 10 joyous tunes that strike a decisive blow for the

Because Wheels and Waves is scheduled in September, the weekend after Labor Day, it is one of the last big shows for the season in the Pacific Northwest.

It’s about featuring high-quality classic cars; it’s about closing the summer season in style; but most importantly, Seaside’s Wheels and Waves car show is about bringing families, car enthusiasts and the community together for a weekend of fun surrounding a common interest. What makes the annual car show and Seaside such a good Âżt" “It’s the scenery; it’s the beach theme; it’s the fun atmosphere,â€? said car owner Travis Diebolt, of Seaside. The event has undergone changes in name and promoters over the years, but the mission of displaying classic cars for people to enjoy has stayed the same, according to Seaside Downtown Development Association Events Coordinator Laurie Mespelt. The 2015 Wheels and Waves event, sponsored by Sunset NAPA Auto Parts, kicks off Thursday, Sept. 10, with daily activities through Sunday, Sept. 13. Organizers are expecting more than 300 quality vehicles, made in 1965 or before, with entries from as far away as Florida.

Wheels and Waves started in 199 , the Âżrst of its kind in Seaside. At the time, it was called Hot Rod Happenin’s and invited cars made in 1962 or before to participate. According to Mespelt, the show “helped to extend the summer season for downtown merchants.â€? In 2004, the association took on a new partnership with Flashback Promotions and local businessman Gary Diebolt, Travis Diebolt’s father, and the event’s name was changed to Wheels and Waves the following year. Under Gary Diebolt’s leadership, the car show thrived. He added activities for car owners and visitors to do throughout the weekend.

‘I wanted her to have a car equal to or better than what her brothers had, because she never had an opportunity to have a car when she was young. That’s just the way it was in those days.’

“He was very much a people person. He wanted to make sure everyone had a good time,� local car owner David Pedegana said. After Gary Diebolt passed away in 2009, the downtown association partnered with Trent Campbell as the event’s next promoter through 2013. After that, the association started promoting Wheels and Waves on its own.

Reliving the past

One of the activities Gary Diebolt added that remains a tradition to this day is the Senior Cruise. Starting at 4 p.m. Thursday, a number of early birds will gather to tour the three local assisted living facilities — Avamere at Suzanne Elise, Avamere at Seaside and Neawanna By the Sea — and give residents an exclusive preview of the cars. The last stop is Thousand Trails’ Seaside RV Resort, where car owners are treated to a barbecue, courtesy of Thousand Trails. The event usually involves about 50 vehicles. About 90 percent of them are out-of-towners who arrive early and are looking for something to do, said Pedegana, the Senior Cruise director. He got involved in the cruise about eight years ago by accident. Gary Diebolt mistook the car leading the parade for Pedegana’s car and thanked him for helping out. Pedegana confessed it wasn’t him but volunteered to lead the tour in the future, to give Gary Diebolt one less thing to worry about. “It’s so much fun,� Pedegana said. “We have such a good time.� Residents from the assisted living facilities come outside or watch from their windows as the cars cruise by. “They’re reliving a part of their past again, because some of the cars in the parade are cars that either their parents owned, or their brother owned, or they owned, or they dated in. We’ve got all kinds of stories,� Pedegana said. Nostalgia tends to be a leading role in the car show as a whole. Many people who participate do

it “because you get to sit and talk to people,� Pedegana said. “There is always interest in the cars,� he added. “There is interest in how the upholstery was done, why the engine was swapped, a variety of different things. ... Or they want to reminiscence about cars they had when they were kids, and that’s a lot of times what happens.� Pedegana and his wife, Kathy, have participated in Wheels and Waves since 1999, when they purchased a 1961 Impala. On a trip to Redding, California, for a car show called Kool April Nites, Kathy spotted a 1937 Ford Slantback and was taken by the teardrop headlights. She said if they were to acquire another car, that was the one for her. In 2000, Pedegana tracked down an identical model — bright red — and presented it to Kathy for Mother’s Day, complete with a license plate reading Her37. Kathy grew up with four brothers who always had cars and that’s why Pedegana bought the Ford for her. “I wanted her to have a car equal to or better than what her brothers had, because she never had an opportunity to have a car when she was young. That’s just the way it was in those days,� Pedegana said. While “it’s her car,� he added, “I get to drive it to car shows and put gas in it, and clean it up.� Over the years, he’s touched up the car with new upholstery, wheels, bumpers and air conditioning.

Passing along the hobby

For Travis Diebolt, his involvement with car shows started because of his father. While he was growing up, the two would attend car shows as vendors, selling 1950s and 1960s nostalgia items. One summer, they hit up 72 events, he said. “My dad joked around that we were like carnies,� Travis Diebolt said. “I’ve seen every state this side of the Mississippi, minus Hawaii, due to going to car shows and traveling with Dad.� When Gary Diebolt became the main promoter for Seaside’s car shows and BikeFest, Travis Die-

bolt helped out as his father’s “errand boy,â€? he said. Later, he contributed his artistic skills for T-shirts and promotional items, even during the few years he lived in New Orleans. Travis Diebolt remembers his father as very dedicated and meticulous when it came to promoting events. “The night before the car show, he’d be out there counting parking spaces trying to Âżgure out, Âľwhere can I get one more car, comfortably"’â€? Travis Diebolt said. “He had a passion for Seaside. Anyone who knew him knew that. He was always for events that would bring people to Seaside to help out Seaside.â€? Because Wheels and Waves is scheduled in September, the weekend after Labor Day, it is one of the last big shows for the season in the PaciÂżc Northwest. “It’s kind of the ‘end-of-the-summer’ type thing,â€? Travis Diebolt said. When his father passed away, Travis Diebolt got his 1952 Chevy Sedan Delivery. He now shares the tradition of attending Wheels and Waves with his own 8-year-old son. They park the car along Broadway with the rest of the participants for the Show and Shine, put out chairs “and play tourists for the day,â€? Travis Diebolt said.

Something for everyone

From Friday through midday Sunday, Broadway will be closed to trafÂżc and transformed into a pedestrian mall from its intersection with Holladay Drive to the Turnaround. The public can walk freely and enjoy the “Show and Shineâ€? from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. both days. Cars will spill over to Columbia Street and the public parking lot by the Seaside Civic and Convention Center, as well. Saturday is the main event, as several bands are scheduled to perform throughout the day. At 4 p.m., the signature “Downtown Street Cruiseâ€? car parade starts, allowing owners to show off their cars in action. The Seaside Elks Lodge also is putting on the

Elks Swap Meet to coincide with the car show. The swap meet will be from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday at the Seaside Elks Lodge, 324 Ave. A. About 20 vendors will be selling memorabilia, clothing, car and motorcycle parts and other items. A few unique cars, such as a Stanley Steamer, will be on display. The cost for vendors is $60 per two days for an indoor space and $50 per two days for an outdoor space. The revenue will go to the Elks’ scholarships for local seniors. The organization hopes to make the swap meet an annual event. There is no admission cost to attend the swap meet. On Sunday, the Seaside association will hold an awards ceremony for car owners at the convention center. Pedegana said his wife once won an award titled “Car Crazy Chick.� They do not put much emphasis on the 35 plaques and trophies they have collected, though. “If you enter a car show strictly to win hardware, you’re going to be disappointed. Because that’s not what it’s about,� he said. “It’s a nice thing to have happen, and nobody says it isn’t, but it’s not why you go.� For more information about Wheels and Waves, contact the Seaside Downtown Development Association at 503-717-1914.

Camp 18 G

The Cheeseburger is robust and comes with plenty of onions.

Though the food is predictable, the setting is singular ordon Smith never dreamed of opening a restaurant. The grand, elemental and elegant hall he erected at Camp 18 was intended to house a logging museum. And for about a year in the early 1980s it did. “We learned quick that a logging museum wouldn’t make enough money to pay the electric bill,´ said Smith, wearing a Àannel shirt, well-worn jeans, work boots and a pair of Camp 18 suspenders. “So we turned it into a restaurant.” Though the of¿cial logging museum is now housed in a separate, much smaller building on the compound, the entirety of Camp 18 remains a paean to local timber. Dotting the property are monolithic tools, big and small, some of which may’ve helped build the place. There are carvings, some 10 feet tall, of wildlife and even Smith himself. Everything is unfathomably heavy. The crown jewel, though, isn’t the equipment, art, or the water-wheel out back — it’s the building itself. And while zooming by on U.S. Highway 26, that majesty is obscured. Even standing on the front porch can be deceptive. Only upon yanking open the heaving doors does one realize — the space almost magically expands, seemingly doubling in size. It’s reminiscent of a ski lodge. Long straight logs ring the walls and peak at a high-ceilinged roof. A majestic, taxidermied mountain lion looms as antler chandeliers twinkle over cavernous ¿replaces, hulking ironwork and raw, stunning tables. All of it trembles, however, beneath the building’s backbone, an 85-foot long ridgepole that weighs some 25 tons. And while not of such distinct craftsmanship or ¿ne materials, the meals at Camp 18 covet a similar scale. The menus are like the plates: full. The fare is mostly of American diners and red meat and potatoes home cooking. Camp 18 prefers “logger-style meals,” which about hits the nail on the head. At the same time, Camp 18 also treats the kitchen sort of like a saw mill, churning out meals quickly, uniformly, and without regard for ¿ner detail. Offering both hot and cold sandwiches, I tried both: a Corned Beef (hot), and a Clubhouse (cold). On toasted rye, the Corned Beef ($10.50) came with all the requisites (sauerkraut, Swiss cheese and Thousand Island dressing), but the

14 | September 10, 2015 | coastweekend.com

acids outweighed the creams. The beef was thick and juicy. With it came a salad I was dismayed to pay an extra dollar for. It was mostly lettuce, akin to ready-made, not-too-fresh, pre-mixed salad-in-a-bag. (Besides clam chowder, the other sides — fries, soup and potato salad — carry no up-charge.) More disturbing were two thin slices of ham that I uncovered deep in the bowl. (On another trip I found no seemingly errant meats in the salad.) The Clubhouse ($11.95) was by the books, and I enjoyed it more than the Corned Beef. The bacon was salty against the sweet tomatoes and mayonnaise, and the bread was ever-so-slightly toasted, but still mostly soft. The slices were thin, as if halved, and in a sandwich featuring three slices plus ham and turkey, I appreciated not ¿lling up on bread. (For those wanting more starch, the Clubhouse came with a mountain of thick-cut fries.) On another trip I tried the Cheeseburger ($9.95). It was served on a sesame seed bun and

offered but one surprise: that the tomato came only upon speci¿c request. (An absurd pile of onions were delivered no questions asked). It’s dif¿cult to say with certainty, but the third-pound patty seemed to been have formed by hand. It was robust, fully-cooked, and there was nothing special about it. It’s a burger you’ve had 100 times before. It won’t wow you, nor let you down. There are a few pockets of Camp 18’s dinner menu that skew a little less predictably. They do so not by innovating but by looking further back. As one diner remarked to his companion, “Ooh honey, they have Liver and Onions! You don’t see that much anymore.” There are other outliers, like an 18-ounce Porterhouse ($32.95) and Pan Fried Razor Clams ($25.95). I went with the Pot Roast

($18.95), which my server said was quite popular. The thick slabs of chuck were ample and lean. The meat was slow-cooked and mostly tender enough to split without a knife. The dish, with garlic mashed potatoes and vegetables, was doused in beef gravy. It was salty, thick and smooth. But the gravy was also a bit of a rouse, masking the fact that the celery, carrots and onions had not been cooked along with the beef. As an afterthought, the veggies suffered. Despite my crowing, I enjoyed my trips to Camp 18 — not so much for the food but for the environment Smith has created (which includes a jovial family-type staff). One night before closing we started chatting, and it’s clear he still delights in the space. Smith’s eyes lit up as he talked about the speci¿cs of the building’s creation and the history of timber in the region. He pointed behind me, to one of the many old photos. It showed two men standing on a saw blade that was dug into a tree trunk. “That’s from 1915,” Smith said. “My dad and my uncle.” Indeed, Camp 18’s timber heritage is deeply important to Smith — perhaps even more so than the food it serves. Nonetheless, he’s succeeded in creating that logging museum after all — it just happens to have an oversized cafeteria.

Ken Grant opens new show at White Bird Gallery Holly McHone Jewelers hosts estate jewelry event

SUNDAY AFTERNOON

CANNON BEACH — White Bird Gallery has opened a new exhibition of paintings by Oregon artist Ken Grant. The show opened Sept. 5 and runs to Oct. 18.

Custard King I wanted custard for the first time. It was a sweltering Saturday in late summer, and I was walking toward cold custard and the dreamy creamy prospect of its mysterious texture and taste. I even had a $1 off coupon that a rock ‘n’ roll-looking guy handed me on the street! Astoria’s rehabilitated Custard King produces custard with a recently acquired $10,000 new Photo by Matt Love custard machine. Experts fanatically trained in the The rehabilitated Custard King in Astoria machine’s use make cus- now serves custard on its menu. tard with exquisite care in the old ways of the former custard masters. Zounds, I love the how the word “custard” sounds! Custard! Custard! Custard! My next dog is going to be named Custard. I want to write a poem about a custard sky. Would someone crank up Led Zeppelin’s “Custard Pie”? I want to meet a woman with custard eyes. I want to live in a country with a flag the color of custard. Wait, I don’t even know what color custard is! I spotted Custard King in the distance — for the love of custard! — it had a line 20 custard hounds deep. I couldn’t wait. There was no time. Custard waits for no one. Four hours later, Custard King was closing, and there wasn’t a single person out front. I ordered custard, vanilla, in a cup. The gleaming metal machine whipped it out in front of my eyes. I brought it to my mouth and tasted. Two seconds later, I did a little jig because I was so overcome with delight. Custard’s First Stand. It definitely won’t be the last.

I suppose it was bound to happen: having written about the bar scene on the North Coast for over a year now, eventually I would walk into a random bar and find a familiar face standing behind a different slab of wood, ready to pour. Jennifer Wayne, formerly of the Twisted Fish and Finn’s in Seaside, is now holding court at Rich Ewing’s newly opened Inferno Lounge at Pier 11 in downtown Astoria. With a crow’s nest DJ booth overlooking the open floor and a slow river view to die for, the Inferno promises to cater to different moods depending on the time of the day. The lounge’s signature drinks begin with an idiosyncratic list of infused spirits, all done in house — peanut vodka, cucumber gin, red hot whiskey, to name a few. Everything is made fresh and to order. For Wayne, this meant less shots poured and more muddling and mixing. Having only been open for two months, the mood behind the bar is still largely experimental: the recipe provided is a variation of a BBQ Iced Tea, which is itself a variation on one of the bar’s more popular confections, the Inferno Iced Tea. Ingredients: 3/4 ounce charred oak-infused vodka* 2 ounces sweet tea-infused vodka** 1/4 ounce 360 Georgia Peach vodka Lemonade Ice

Directions: To layer, top a pint glass with ice and then fill 1/3 full with fresh-squeezed lemonade. Mix liquors together in a separate, small glass and carefully pour atop lemonade. Garnish with a lemon wedge and stir before consuming. *The Inferno uses Svedka vodka as the base for all of its vodka infusions. The charred oak variety sounds mighty complicated and involves oak, fire, at least eight weeks of shelf life and a strainer, I presume. If one were feeling a bit like a mad scientist, I suppose you could substitute a nip of bourbon or a peaty scotch in its place, though I don’t think any bartender would recommend mixing your browns with your clears. At home, it may just be best to keep the barbecue component on the grill. **This infusion shouldn’t take as long to master and doesn’t require a blowtorch: tea bags plus sugar to taste. Store in dark place until you like the color. —Recipe courtesy of Jennifer Wayne, bartender at the Inferno Lounge in Astoria
