------------------------------ Cover Story • Kip Moore------------------------------
The Silverado to Success
By Evan Gillespie
Kip Moore’s dad almost certainly gets
the credit for pointing his son toward a career
as a collegiate golfer, but he might also
get the credit – and at this point, it looks like
it’s credit rather than blame – for planting
the seeds that ultimately derailed that career.
If he hadn’t let his son
listen to so darn much
good music when he
was growing up, Kip
Moore might be a golf
pro right now, instead
of a guy with a No. 1
single and a hot debut
album.
“He would play a
lot of Jackson Browne,
Willie Nelson, Bob
Seger, Tom Petty and
Bruce Springsteen,”
Moore says as he recalls
riding around
in his dad’s 1988 Silverado
pickup. “As
early as I can remember,
I always gravitated
toward lyrics. Even
when I hadn’t lived
enough to understand
them, they still shaped
me.”
He was clearly being
shaped, because
those songwriters
were pushing him toward
his future career,
and the Silverado was
installing itself as the
inspiration for his first
hit single. At the moment,
though, all he
thought he was doing
was going fishing with his dad so that he’d
have something to do, a goal that could be a
challenge to meet in his hometown of Tifton,
Georgia.
“When you are from a small town like
I am, there’s not a whole lot to do,” he explains.
“You have to make your own fun, and
there’s a whole lot of sitting in fields and a
whole lot of Bud Light and fishing poles.”
Most small town kids can’t wait to get
out, and most aspiring country singers who
do get out can’t wait to get back. All that
would prove to be true for Moore, but the
first step was the getting out. Initially, it
looked like the opportunity for escape would
come through college athletics. Moore’s dad
was a golf pro, and Moore had his share of
talent in the sport. He spent two years playing
golf at Wallace State Community College
in Alabama, then transferred to Valdosta
State University back in Georgia on a golf
scholarship.
Unfortunately, Moore found out quickly
that athletics and professional musicianship
don’t mix well. He’d begun playing his
brother’s guitar (the first song he learned to

play was The Band’s “The Weight”), and by
the time he was in college he was playing
regularly at local clubs.
“I was out till three or four in the morning
playing these bars, and I didn’t have the
energy to get up at six and do golf practice,”
he told USA Today. “I ended up saying, ‘My
heart’s in this, and it’s not in playing golf.’
So I dropped the
scholarship.”
Still, even with
more time on his
hands to devote to
playing, he wasn’t
exactly setting the
music business on
fire. He was in a band
that was playing regionally
and making
some money, but it was looking like Moore
hadn’t managed to get far enough away from
Tifton, at least not yet. So after graduation,
he headed far away – to Hawaii.
Moore and a friend landed in Hawaii
with not much more than a backpack and a
surfboard. They spent their first night sleeping
on a bench in the airport, and then they
got lucky and found a “hut” that only cost
them $50 a month. It was a long way from
Georgia, and it was paradise. But Moore
couldn’t stop thinking about music, and conversations
on the topic with his friend made
him begin to rethink his plan for the future.
“I didn’t know a whole lot about the
world of songwriting,” Moore says. “I just
did it for my own enjoyment. We talked
about Nashville, and I ended up saying, ‘I’m
going to give it a shot.’ I flew back home
and told my folks. They thought I was crazy.
Now they’ll say different, that they knew all
along.”
The wisdom of the decision wasn’t immediately
obvious because it would take
four years of songwriting and playing around
Nashville before Moore caught the attention
of someone who mattered. Always the minimalist
traveler, he hit town at the beginning
of 2004 in a Nissan pickup with a guitar and
a single bag. Four years later he was noticed
by agent Marc Dennis who managed
to get him a deal with MCA Nashville. The
resulting debut album made Moore into one
of Nashville’s most infamous products, the
years-in-the-making
overnight success.
It had taken
years of hard work to
achieve, but when the
success hit, it hit like
lightning. The album,
Up All Night, debuted
at No. 3 on Billboard’s
country album chart
and sold 58,000 copies
in its first two weeks
of release. Those sales
were driven by the
success of the album’s
first single, “Somethin’
’Bout a Truck,” which
eventually reached
the top of Billboard’s
country singles chart.
Moore had come full
circle, via the golf
course and Hawaiian
beaches back to Georgia,
where he’d made
fond memories by borrowing that old Silverado
to go on dates.
“I think anybody that comes from a
small town has lived that song,” he says.
“I lived that song 5,000 times growing up.
It’s real hot in south Georgia, so all of the
girls were wearing sundresses. It was all you
needed back then – a truck bed, a radio and
good company with you.”
Now, thanks to that truck, Moore has
the career he’s always wanted. He’s a songwriter,
collaborating with the likes of Dan
Couch, Westin Davis and Kiefer Thompson
of Thompson Square (two Thompson-Moore
songs made it onto Thompson Square’s debut
album, and a third, “Drive Me Crazy,” is
the opening track of Moore’s Up All Night).
Moore is also making a name for himself as
an authentic blue-collar singer/songwriter,
prompting Music Row magazine’s Robert
Oermann to call him the “hillbilly Springsteen.”
The praise is huge, the record sales
satisfying, but it’s the future that Moore’s
focused on. He’s had some success, but he
knows there’s still a lot that he hasn’t done
or seen. He’s not sure what’s ahead, but he’s
optimistic, and whatever comes, he seems
ready to meet it.
“I have truly lived my music to a sense,
even the milestones I haven’t reached yet,”
he says. “I have been in those moments. I’ve
been at those crossroads with a girl: ‘Are we
going to take that next step’ I look forward
to taking that next step, but I haven’t wanted
to yet. I look forward to being ready for
that.”

Life Beyond Boston
By Deborah Kennedy
Imagine, if you will, 1980. It was the year of The
Empire Strikes Back, Raging Bull and Nine to Five.
Also of Mt. Saint Helens and the Post-it ® Note. That
ame year, we found out who shot J.R. We
lso discovered that 24-hour news, courtesy
f CNN, could lead to some pretty ridiculous
rogramming. Another noteworthy happening
rom that rich period in our country’s popular
ulture was the fact that Fran Cosmo, otherwise
nown as the former lead singer of Boston, got
is first big music business break.
In 1980, Cosmo (a.k.a. Francis Cosmo
igliaccio) was approached by Barry Goureau,
guitarist for Boston, about working on
oudreau’s debut solo album. Cosmo jumped
t the chance to work with Goudreau, and three
ears later their collaboration led to the formaion
of a new act, Orion the Hunter.
The self-titled debut Cosmo and Goudreau
eleased shortly thereafter might not have made
rion the Hunter a household name, but it did
ive radio listeners the hit single “So You Ran”
nd scored the group a tour of the U.S. with
erosmith for their Back in the Saddle tour.
Cosmo’s collaboration with Goudreau also
ot his foot in the door with Boston, at the time
n unstoppable force in the world of classic
ock, and seven years later Cosmo was invited

rojects. (One

orld, ain’t it)
Cosmo, who
ill take the stage Thursday, September 27
t the DeKalb County Free Fall Fair, took the
elm on Boston’s fourth studio album, Walk On,
hich dropped in 1994. And while the album
id not chart as high as previous Boston efforts,
t produced the single “I Need Your Love” and
elped Cosmo solidify his status in the band. For the
ext 10 years he toured with Boston, sharing vocal duies
with Delp who returned to the group in 1995 in
reparation for its Livin’ For You tour.
Delp, who killed himself in 2007, was widely
redited with helping Boston achieve its unique blend
f hard and progressive rock. Big shoes to fill, in other
ords, but Cosmo was undaunted, and threw himself
nto his new role, both as solo frontman and as Delp’s
ocal partner.
Tom Scholz, the brains behind Boston and the
and’s lead guitarist since its formation in the early
0s, said of Cosmo, “Fran has a really good ear for
ecorded and live sound.”
According to another of Cosmo’s former Boston
andmates, that’s understating it just a bit.
“Fran’s an easy going guy with a big heart,” said
ary Pihl, Boston guitarist for the albums Third Stage,
alk On, Greatest Hits and Corporate America.
Nothing seems more important to him than family
nd friends … He was born with such musical intinct.
You can’t learn it. You can’t teach it, he’s just
ot it. But Fran is one of those guys who is never happy
with their performance. He always wants to make
it better. He’ll have an incredible night, the crowd is
jumping up and down for him, and he’ll turn to us and
worry, ‘Did I sound okay’
“Fran doesn’t have a technical background, but if
he says he’s hearing something wrong with a speaker
on the other side of the stage, we go check it out. He’s
got super hearing. Dogs ask him, ‘Did you hear something’”
In 2006, Cosmo teamed up with his son, Anthony
(who also became one of Boston’s rapidly rotating
slate of guitarists), to form the band Cosmo, along
with Bernie Garzio, Rusty Fouke, Mick Brooks and
Tom Moonan. The group soon put out the noisy, melodic
rock record Alien and has been touring ever
since.
Cosmo, who also sings with the World Classic
Rockers, is currently hard at work on a new solo
album and basking in the glow of the raves over the
recent reissue of Orion the Hunter from Rock Candy
Records. Classic Rock AOR Magazine gave the album
a coveted nine out of 10 stars, which is saying
something. The rag is notoriously hard to please.
Cosmo, on the other hand, has a reputation for being
a pretty laid back guy. He lives with his wife and
daughter in upstate New York. He gets to play alongside
his son in an internationally known rock band.
And soon, he’ll be playing in our own backyard.

A Start on Stage
By Michele DeVinney
And those moments for performance are
plentiful, too, with a slate of performances
which cover the gamut for 2012-13. Those
who enjoyed last year’s Youtheatre performance
of Tom Sawyer will be happy to hear
what kicks off the new season October 5-7:
The Adventures of Huck Finn.
“It’s the great American novel, a tale
we all grew up with,” says Hormann. “And
of course with the story of Huck and Jim,
there’s a great message in there too. Joining
us for the show will be the Canterbury and
Arlington school choirs, so we get to collaborate
with a couple of local schools at the
same time.”
As will be the case with all this year’s
productions, opening night will include a
special pre-performance gathering, and for
Huck Finn, a “Picnic on the River” (at the
Ian Rolland Gallery upstairs at Arts United
Center) will include dinner, music and a
chance to meet the stars of Mark Twain’s
classic story.
Hans Christian Andersen’s The Snow
Queen will take the stage December 14-16,
providing Youtheatre’s contribution to the
holiday festivities, with the “Ice Castle Ball
“serving as the pre-show party. Hormann
promises snow will fall and the full magic of
the story and the holiday will come through
on the stage of the Arts United Center.
The big musical production of the season
comes February 8-17 when the talents
of Fort Wayne Youtheatre and the IPFW
Department of Theatre join forces to present
Oliver, the festive, musical take on the
Dickens classic, Oliver Twist. Hormann is
particularly excited to work with IPFW and
to share that opportunity to her students.
“It’s a great chance for the kids to work
with that level of experience, to see the kind
of talent that we have and what educational
opportunities there are for them. But we’re
performing here at the Arts United Center,
so it’s also a chance for IPFW’s students to
mount a show away from their own theatre.
Continued on page 10
It is becoming increasingly difficult for
area schools to provide arts education for
a population of children who have demonstrated
a remarkable interest and talent for
music, theatre, dance and fine arts. With
funding absent and interest still high, local
arts organizations are increasingly filling the
gap between supply and demand.
Fort Wayne Youtheatre, which is celebrating
its 78th season this year, continues
to do more than its share, providing both a
forum for those who wish to explore opportunities
both on and behind the stage as well
as a means for sharing the theatre experience
to kids who enjoy sitting in the audience.
Led for years by Artistic Director Harvey
Cocks, a Fort Wayne theatre icon,
Youtheatre welcomed one of its own alumna,
Leslie Hormann, a few seasons back as
executive director. Together the formidable
team has continued the organization’s mission
by bringing theatre to the masses, not
just waiting for them to come see them in
their home at the Arts United Center. Their
traveling troupe, Storybook Theatre, visit libraries,
helping to make the connection to
their programs of literature-based theatre for
children of all ages. A tour schedule for the
troupe is available on Youtheatre’s website,
and fans of fairy tales will enjoy their take
on Not So Grimm Fairy Tales, which will
this year include a special April 7 collaboration
with the Fort Wayne Philharmonic.
Of course, classes have long been at the
heart of Youtheatre’s offerings, and the selection
continues to offer a variety of areas
for children to explore the vast world of theatre.
Covering not only the performance elements
like drama, voice and dance but also
technical theatre and radio theatre, classes
range from Pre-K favorites to an upper-level
class on Shakespeare. The Wednesday After
School Playhouse even tackles comedy and
improvisation, providing a well-rounded
education for those who want a moment in
the limelight.
By Ryan Smith
No need to fear
the Reverend Boogieman
– they’re here
to rock you. The
Wabash-based cover
band that won this
year’s Replicon Rivals
contest at Piere’s
plays blocks of classic
heavy metal designed
to win over even the
most jaded of headbanger.
As lead singer and
bassist Dave Enyeart
describes their show,
“It’s like going to see
the greatest metal groups of all time put together
in one show. What we do is we’ll play
a block of Judas Priest and then, say, another
block of Iron Maiden. We try to go from one
band to another, and we try to get as close to
the original as possible.”
The band’s history is a little convoluted,
but it goes something like this. The current
lineup is constituted by Enyeart, a pair of
brother guitarists – Bryan and Duane Coburn
who play lead and rhythm, respectively
– and drummer Rich Simpson.
In 2005, Enyeart joined a cover band as
a lead guitarist with Simpson and Bryan Coburn.
The new band was in need of a name,
so Enyeart resurrected Reverend Boogieman
from a band he had previously played
in. As Enyeart explains, “When I joined up
with them, they already had a group going
and they picked out a band name and they
thought it was a cool name. With that name
being out there for as many years as it’s
been, I’d say there’s more people that have
heard of us than have heard us. We’ve had
our name on the radio all over the state for
years.”
Their bass player eventually had to leave
the band due to other commitments, so Enyeart
shifted to bass temporarily in order to
fill the bill on some gigs. He eventually decided
to stick with bass, and Bryan’s brother,
Duane, joined the group to play lead guitar.
The original Reverend Boogieman
formed during the mid-90s. In 1995 that
band, which had been practicing as a nameless
entity, had set up its first gig. With the
date pending and the band still unsure of
what to christen themselves, Enyeart hit
upon a stroke of luck – or perhaps a vision.
“The week before the gig we didn’t have
a band name, and I was [thinking] ‘What are
we gonna call this thing,’ you know” he
says. “And I had a dream one night that I
was playing in a metal band called Reverend
Boogieman. And I woke up and said ‘That’s
it.’”
The good Reverend Boogieman has
had its share of success beyond winning the
Replicon show, and the band hopes to build
on that foundation in the near future with a
studio recording of original material.
“Around here we’ve done pretty much
everything you can do with a tribute act,”
says Enyeart. “We’ve played with about
every national band that fits within our category,
things like that. What we’re really
shooting for is, when we’ve got a couple
more commitments here in the fall, after that
we’re going to take a break and try to do a
studio recording. You know, a rock album
together. We’re trying to get out everything
we’ve been wanting to do for the last 15
years.”
The band has started culling together
scraps of original material that have been
generated over the years, along with enough
gear to get the ball rolling with recording.
Time, however, is one of the main sticking
points. As each band member has day jobs
and often conflicting schedules, they have
had difficulty nailing down enough free time
outside of practicing and playing gigs to go
to work in the studio.
“We’re gonna do all the tracking and
stuff on our own,” says Enyeart. “Over the
years we’ve accumulated a lot of gear. The
main trick has been finding time to do it.
We’ve got some songs that we want to put
out, but every time we say, ‘Okay, we’re
gonna get in the studio and work and we’re
gonna get this together,’ somebody calls and
says ‘Hey, why don’t you play here next
weekend,’ or ‘Hey, come play two weeks
from now.’ So then we have to rehearse and
get ready for that, even though recording in
the long run will do us way better. Even if
we’re the biggest and best metal cover band
in Indiana, that still doesn’t hold a candle
to having your songs played on the radio or
even on YouTube.”
Until that happens, however, the band
stay busy. While they do frequently play
shows to general audiences, ABATE (American
Bikers Toward Education) has embraced
the band and often fills up its schedule with
show dates. Additionally, the band has
enough of their own high points to make the
whole endeavor worthwhile. Guitarist Bryan
Coburn was ecstatic to be able to open up
for one of his heroes, George Lynch, when
his band Lynch Mob played the C2G Music
Hall.

------------------------------------------ Feature • NIPR Jazz Fest----------------------------------------
Swinging in September
By Ashley Motia
Jazz is a genre of musical juxtaposition. It straddles
the space between swing and blues, at times resembling
a bit of both. In this way, it seems no coincidence
that the folks at Northeast Indiana Public Radio
(NIPR) chose this specific genre for their annual event
that marks the transition from summer to autumn.
On September 23, Sunday in the Park with Jazz
takes over Headwaters Park West for its sixth year.
Big band sounds, smooth saxophone crooning and
guitar riffs dance with drumbeats to create an all-ages
jazz experience like no other in northeast Indiana.
This free community event runs from 1-5 p.m.
and features three well known, heavy-hitting jazz acts:
The Mark Maxwell Sax Experience, The Todd Harrold
Band and Dan Heath and the Paradise Band. Many
will recognize the names of the latter two groups, as
they play frequently in the Allen County region. The
Mark Maxwell Sax Experience comes to the event all
the way from California but is no stranger to the area.
Mark Maxwell, frontman of the
four-piece group, got his roots with the MAX MAXWELL
saxophone while growing up in Fort
Wayne. Music
– the saxophone,
in particular
– runs in
Maxwell’s family,

every family
member having
played the instrument.
“My mother
played the sax
when she was a child, as did my older sister, and when
I came of age – around age nine – my mom pulled
my sister’s old sax out of the closet and asked me if I
wanted to play it, too,” Maxwell recalls. “I jumped at
the opportunity and started in the fifth grade band at
Forest Park Elementary. I played through junior high
and high school and ended up studying under the legendary
Barry Ashton at North Side.
“I’ve come to believe that I have saxophone in my
blood and that the sax chose me, not the other way
around.”
In the late 70s, Maxwell followed his calling out to
Los Angeles, where he has enjoyed a successful career
as a professional musician. He has sold over 500,000
copies of his prolific 18 CD repertoire and played numerous
shows around the country. He even played the
“National Anthem” at a Lakers game – twice.
But never once did Maxwell forget his hometown
roots. When asked to return to the area for the 2012
edition of Sunday in the Park with Jazz, he eagerly
agreed.
“I’m thrilled and honored to be able to return to
Fort Wayne and share my music with the community
that supported me so enthusiastically in my youth.
I have so many great memories of playing in Fort
Wayne, like playing in the basement of Mother’s (now
Columbia Street West) back in the 70s. Fort Wayne
sax legend Bob Green played upstairs, and we played
downstairs. That was a very cool scene,” Maxwell
says.
Much like Maxwell, the Todd Harrold Band and
Dan Heath and the Paradise Band reference similar
influences from the local music scene in their equally
long musical careers. It seems Fort Wayne has a knack
for cultivating groovy jazz band pearls.
Harrold has been
drumming with various
regional musicians for
years, often playing as
part of a trio or quartet.
You may have caught him
at Club Soda, in the pages
of Modern Drummer, or
on WBOI’s airwaves on
a Sunday night with The
Burnt Toast Show. He has shared the stage with plenty
of genre-spanning heavy-hitters like the Derek Trucks
Band, the Doobie Brothers, Govt Mule, Lalah Hathaway,
Leon Russell, Ike Stubblefield, The Bodeans,
Leftover Salmon, Bill Watrous, Tom “Bones” Malone,
Melvin Rhyne and KC and the Sunshine Band. Harrold,
in his many musical incarnations, has won numerous
Whammy awards for Best Jazz Performer despite
once adamantly telling whatzup that he doesn’t play
jazz.
And he’s right. Just like jazz borrows bits and
pieces from cultures and genres, Harrold has pieced
together his own unique form of jazz that echoes
sounds of classic rock and R&B influences. If you
think you know jazz,the Todd Harrold Band just might
surprise you.
Dan Heath and the Paradise Band fill out the Sunday
in the Park with Jazz bill, offering a full, sevenpiece
jazz band experience. The Allen Superior Court
judge-turned-baritone got a quiet start in the local music
scene in 2001. He surprised his wife by recording
a CD for their anniversary. After playing the CD for a
few friends at the Allen County Court House, Heath
started playing gigs and has been jamming ever since,
most recently as the frontman for The Paradise Band.
“Inspired by the great jazz and pop standards
from the 1920s through the mid-70s,” Heath says that
the jazz aspect of the band is particularly highlighted
“when the vocal goes out and the freewheeling, creative
instrumentals take over.”
With jazzed-up hits from renowned and beloved
artists like The Beatles, Elvis, Sinatra, and Elvis Costello,
your body will be drawn to move with the music

Vandolah
One More Minute EP
When I first got to know the music
of Mark Hutchins, it was his first
New Pale Swimmers album that did
the trick. Short, simple, messy, memorable,
oddly rocking songs with riddles
for titles. In those days (and still,
in these days) I was a big Robert Pollard
believer, and so Hutchins seemed
like some lost treasure that only the hippest citizens of northeast Indiana
listened to. Soon enough came Walk It Off, Hutchins’ second
album under the moniker he’s most known for, Vandolah, and then
some more NPS tracks and Vandolah records. And then, finally, in
2010, Hutchins released his masterpiece, a solo record called Sleepy
Furnace. Add another solo record, last year’s Liar’s Gift, to the heap,
and people hardly remember the days of the New Pale Swimmers,
let alone Vandolah. But now, out of nowhere, comes the One More
Minute EP, released under the Vandolah assignation.
And here’s the thing: I no longer think of Pollard when I play a
Hutchins song. Sometimes I remember my favorite R.E.M. songs,
but most of the time I hear either The Beatles, Wilco or, especially,
Sparklehorse. Good company. And while Hutchins often does bring
to mind the great GBV when on stage, it’s more of a mellow Tobin
Sprout mood (see 1997’s criminally underrated Moonflower Plastic)
than a high kicking, hard rocking Uncle Bob vibe – especially when
he’s singing solo or Vandolah selections. Indeed, the five songs and
two instrumentals here all register as mid-tempo rockers of the thick,
heavily ornamented variety, all built on the fragile, nuanced vocal
tracks Hutchins seems to perfect a little more each time out. The
voice and, of course, Hutchins’ highly regarded home production
sound as good as any other indie rock record currently on the shelves
and Neat Neat Neat. (Note: As far as I know, aside from here-andthere
contributions from J. Hubner, Hutchins played everything on
this EP.)
As he’s moved away from his New Pale days, Hutchins’ writing
has grown increasingly literate. Once a man tweaking off the art of
reflective abstraction, Hutchins’ writing now inches closer and closer
to the “artsy classical” appeal of a Jeff Tweedy track, never straying
too far from digestible, but still poetic comprehension. Like the
many rockers in his past, Hutchins’ writing remains as sing-along
friendly as ever, especially on opener “One More Minute” and a
bouncy downer called “Something Makes Me Lose My Mind.” On
the latter we really get to see Hutchins digging in on the production,
ornamenting his track with little details and nuggets like Easter eggs
hidden for future listening sessions.
In summary, yes, the voice is still king on Mark Hutchins-sung
records, whether he intends it to be or not. The lyrics and melodies
fall out of the speakers like sweet, calming honey, and the production
is as tasteful as ever. As far as I know, Hutchins has not yet released
a bad set of songs. Some, like Sleepy Furnace, are better than others.
One More Minute, though brief, would probably land somewhere
towards the top of the stack, thanks to “Hiding Its Teeth” and the two
above-mentioned bits of songwriter bliss. Hugely beautiful tracks,
all three.
There has been this lingering question for Hutch fans since Furnace
was released: “Is Vandolah still a thing” One More Minute
possibly tells us that, yes, Hutchins will keep the Vandolah output
coming, even if it sounds more like his solo work than 2007’s rocking
To the Moon EP. Or will he Is the EP’s title telling us that, hey,
here’s the bottom of the barrel. Is Hutchins cleaning house or keeping
busy Either way, this latest batch tastes every bit as good as
we’ve become accustomed to under the Mark Hutchins brand.
Download the EP at vandolah.bandcamp.com. While you’re
there, maybe also pick up Vandolah’s excellent, but little known, debut
album, 2003’s Please. (Greg Locke)
Tin Hat
the rain is a handsome animal
I’m not sure why I even bought
the rain is a handsome animal, the
latest album by the multi-instrumentalist
cabal that currently goes by the
name of Tin Hat.
At first blush it sounds a lot like
the kind of music played on NPR as
BACKTRACKS
Cowboy Junkies
The Trinity Session (1988)
The second release from The
Cowboy Junkies seemed so listless
when I first heard it 25 years ago. It
was formulaic, somber and a little too
country for my taste. I realize now
that it survives in the galaxy of music
between Gram Parsons and Bonnie
Raitt, and that’s a good thing.
Margo Timmins’ silky vocals remind me of (dare I say) a
cross between Patsy Cline and Nina Simone. And throw in a better
than average band (her brothers Mike and Peter) and a pretty
good bassist in Alan Anton and you’ve got a great Canadian country/folk/blues
band.
The album opens with the 90-second vocals-only track in
“Mining For Gold” which does nothing to make you think you
are getting something special. But it comes back with the eloquent
Canadian bluegrass in “Misguided Angel.”
They cover Hank Williams’ “I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry”
and keep the soft ballads going with the beautiful “To Love Is To
Bury.” Soft steel guitars and accordion create a poetic atmosphere
that stays true to the theme of the album, as does the road song
“200 More Miles.”
The band wonderfully covers The Lou Reed’s “Sweet Jane”
in such a way that you can clearly hear Timmons channel the sultry
vocals of Nico, who had passed away just months before the
recording sessions.
The album, recorded at Toronto’s Church of the Holy Trinity,
closes with Patsy Cline’s ageless, “Walkin’ After Midnight.” This
song (which is butchered on a nightly basis by no-talent karaoke
performers) is done justice by this impressive jazz-country band
that is still around after 17 studio records.
The Junkies’ February 2012 release, The Wilderness, is the
final album of four albums in their Nomad series, and they are
supporting it now with a tour. (Dennis Donahue)
they take a commercial break, if you know what I mean (and I think
you do). And then there’s the fact that the album is based on poetry
by the avant-garde poet e.e.cummings, a man so creative that he refuses
to capitalize his name.
I’ve got nothing against the man or his poetry; it’s just that I
never find myself sitting in front of a warm fire, my favorite pipe
firmly in hand and a burning desire to read me some e.e. cummings
poetry ensconced in my brain. However, I’ve enjoyed past albums by
Tin Hat, and so I forked over the credit card and listened and listened
and listened some more.
handsome animal is certainly not as playful or as dark as past albums.
And instead of being mostly instrumental, this beast is mostly
vocal, thanks to violinist Carla Kihlstedt tackling the carefully constructed
lines of cummings.
Just about the time that I’m ready to write this one off, it starts to
reveal itself to me The classical-meets European folk melodies begin
to shine through, and what I once thought of as excessive use of the
bass harmonica now seems appropriate. It also doesn’t hurt that I’m
a non-polka accordion fan and this album is packed with exceptional
squeezebox bravado, especially “a cloud on a leaf” where Rob Reich
evokes images of accordion virtuoso Piazzolla. Clarinetist Ben
Goldberg joins the accordion in “2 little whos” to make a romantic
afternoon in Paris, forming gauzy atmosphere in the likes of an impressionistic
painting.
A funeral arrangement of horns fills “buffalo bill” with a somber
spirit, giving Kihlstedt ample room to mourn and flex her expressive
vocal cords. Acoustic guitarist and founding member Mark Orton
more than holds his own amongst these musical maniacs. “sweet
spring,” a beautiful song, features Orton’s impeccable talents, graciously
allowing the silences to say as much as the notes played.
And, as always, Kihlstedt’s violin prowess is on full display, never
more so than on the crazed violin solo in “enormous room,” frantically
careening about on silken slippers. These songs are definitely
slow growers, but they appear to be paying rich dividends.
I was originally planning to pan this album, but dang it if I didn’t
instead discover why I bought the rain is a handsome animal: Tin

Hat never fail to surprise and never fail to please the
ars. (Jason Hoffman)
Animal Collective
Centipede Hz
When a creative
and like Animal Colective
sets out to crete
an album that repesents
the culmination
f its discography, it
ill undoubtedly beome
a classic. Such
s the case with their
009 critic’s darling,
erriweather Post Pavilion. That album is where
heir most idiosyncratic traits and predominant quirks
ere given power, balance, and pop accessibility.
Since AC returned to the studio early last year
ith returning producer Ben H. Allen III, they basially
had two choices as to how they could follow up
PP: they could either venture further into pop territory,
or revert back to their old ways. Centipede Hz
instead strives to be an even more distracted version
f 2007’s Strawberry Jam. Listening to this complex
lbum, you wonder how they manage to pull these
ongs off live without getting lost in the clutter.
Perhaps they’re intentionally going off the deep
nd to elude mainstream pop and retain their status
with hipster kids. After all, the lead single, “Today’s
upernatural,” really does not have the appeal of a
ingle at all. All of the songs’ goofy and hectic nature
ound so uniform that by the time you finish listening
to all of the hurried rhythms you don’t come away
with many discernible memories of sonic highlights.
I’m inclined to say that this is mostly Panda Bear and
Avey Tare’s fault because their lyrics and shouting this
time around are nonsensical, even by their standards.
I could spend this whole review comparing it negtively
to MPP, but that wouldn’t be fair to Centipede
z. Nearly all of these tracks are messy in their own
ay, but some are more beautifully messy than others.
Wide Eyed,” “Rosie Oh,” and “Father Time” find AC
n familiar and more concentrated ground, making
them some of the best tracks on the album.
Given their history with long and rambling songs,
they could have done worse with length. Most all of
he songs average the same five-minute length, and depending
whether or not you like how the track opens,
ou may get tired of hearing the same incoherent stuters
(“Mercury Man”) repeated throughout.
It would be easy to say that Animal Collective
have finally released an indulgent/subpar album, but
the important thing to remember is that the band loves
to experiment with what works and what doesn’t, and
hat’s how they’ve found success. Centipede Hz is
ot the best in their discography, but it’s still far more
imaginative than most albums being released today.

Why
Sod in the Seed
I believe in Yoni
olf, the art school
ropout turned emcee
urned singer/songwritr
behind the 11 proper
Ps and CDs released
ince Why debuted in
he late naughts. Many
thers, too, believe in the Berkeley, California-based
apper turned singer. Hundreds, maybe even a couple
housand.
While Why discs like 2008’s Alopecia and
009’s Eskimo Snow did receive some strong reviews
rom taste makers like Pitchfork.com and TinyMixtapes.com
upon their release, the band, or its leader,
has never sold big – still playing small clubs and still
releasing records on boutique labels. One could easily
argue that Wolf has been working towards cult figure
status since 1998 when he and Doseone released their
first of many collaborations, It’s Not Easy Being …,
under their now-long-defunct Greenthink moniker.
But with the latest Why release, a six-song mini album
called Sod In the Seed, it seems as if Wolf and
his Why crew are going for a more focused appeal.
Rather than try to lure in fans spanning genres as diverse
as alternative hip-hop, pop, indie rock and soul,
Sod seems dead set on the capturing the hipster crowd.
If the songs themselves don’t sell that point, watching
the video (essentially an ensemble of cute, ironic,
goofy hipsters in bright, ugly clothing, dancing) for
the record’s eponymous track should do the trick.
Normally I’d be put off by such a video – not because
it so shamelessly takes aim at a certain listenership,
but because it seems too obvious for a proven
weirdo, and true artist, like Wolf. But then I heard the
EP, polished as it is, and it made sense. In a way, Sod
is an experiment. It’s not so much a step away from
the high art popery of Why’s past as it is a calculated,
but still artful step towards the band’s should-be fanbase.
It’s more Panda Bear than Kool Keith. Finally,
after all these years, all these bands, all the collaborations
and all these records, Wolf seemingly wants to
settle in and be heard, so he made a very accessible,
lean and lushly produced collection of songs that sums
up what he does best in a clear, honest way. I dig that.
My first exposure to Wolf came in 2000, when I
was attempting to locate every Anticon-related release
I could find. Back then Anticon was an all-experimental
hip-hop label known for introducing the world
to such huge talents as Sole, Doseone, Alias and Jel
(they’ve since released albums by more mainstream
indie acts like Tobacco, 13 & God, Danielson, Safe
Francis, Atmosphere, Mike Patton, Anathallo and
Buck 65). Along with those initially mentioned, Why
was one of the founders of the label, having already
self-released a couple of side projects with Anticon
figurehead Doseone before the label formed i Berkeley.
The first Why release that really got me was Split
EP, a record he released with producer Odd Nosdam.
On that record was a 13-minute, seven-part composition
from Why called “You’ll Know Where Your
Plane Is.” It was a tight dose of outsider pop genius for
open minded alt hip-hop fans. While those 13 minutes
put off most Anticon loyalists at the time, it excited
me. Sure, Wolf could rap and even compose hip-hop
beats with the best of them, but these 13 minutes
proved that he had a lot more to him. He had an urge.
A drive to make pop music unlike any I’d ever heard.
That was 2001 or so. Along the way Why has
released many albums and Wolf has collaborated with
some truly big indie rocker types on projects with
names like Clouddead and Hymie’s Basement. Scanning
through Wolf’s deep catalog I realized that, until
the recent release of Sod, he had never been as intriguing
as he was on that split EP he did with Nosdam over
a decade ago. Wolf has done great work, absolutely,
but work that reminds more of 90s indie rock than the
outsider art pop I first fell for. Sod is a return to form
in that it presents the most ambitious and strange sides
of Wolf as well as the most accessible and, ultimately,
memorable. If he was once the poppy hip-hop version
of Daniel Johnston, Wolf here emerges as a Frank
Zappa-like of oddball pop batso, mixing endless ideas
as well as his undeniable hip-hop background with a
modern style of indie rock in unexpected, fun ways
that I’m still wrapping my head around. This first
2012 release might not turn out to be the breakthrough
the band had in mind, but when a long-brewing new
LP, Mumps, Etc., is finally released this fall, I think
we might see a wider interest in Why’s beautiful and
strange version of hip-hop-influenced art pop. Then,
fingers crossed, fans will look back over the band’s
one-of-a-kind back catalog.

John O’Connell will be directing, and I’ll be assisting and working on
some choreography.
“Doing something like this would be cost-prohibitive for us, so being
able to work with IPFW and do something full-scale like this is really
exciting for all of us.”
Preceding the festivities on opening night will be “Fagan’s Pickpocket
Party,” one of the few times a pickpocket will actually be a crowd
pleaser.
Rounding out the season will be Anansi the Spider, a classic folktale
from West Africa which features the traditional trickster character prevalent
in all regional folktales. With large puppets along with drummers
and dancers from the Three Rivers Institute of Afrikan Art & Culture
(TRIAAC) and the Voices of Unity Choir, the show promises to offer
something for everyone, including another introduction to great literature
which happily rivals Twain, Dickens and Andersen. “Supper on the
Savannah” will precede opening night’s performance and will include
drummers and some small zoo animals to create the proper ambiance.

BOOGIEMAN - From Page 6
For Enyeart, opening up for the band Jackyl at a hometown show at
Brandt’s Harley Davidson in Wabash has been one highlight. A diehard
fan of Ronnie James Dio, Enyeart points to covering Dio’s songs, “Holy
Diver” in particular, as his personal favorite moment on stage.
“As a teenager, I chased Dio around every show that he played this
side of the Mississippi, pretty much – and got to meet him several times.
And they even told him that we were playing some of his songs, and he
said, ‘Hey, that’s awesome!’ He was flattered by it,” he says.
“I figured he’d say, ‘No, dude, you can’t be playing my stuff.’ But he
was really cool about it, and when we went to play Piere’s we got up there
and it came time for us to do ‘Holy Diver’ that night, I remembered when
I was 21 years old, coming in here and seeing him in that place singing
that song, it kinda hit me – if this is as far as I go in music, then it’s pretty
damn far for me.”

come into season in the autumn months, which means
it’s also time for warm stews, and nothing makes the
house smell more like fall than my husband’s Hearty
Smoked Pork Neck and Hominy stew. Savory, warm,
and smoky, this is the perfect dish to warm you on
chilly autumn nights.
Hearty Smoked Pork Neck
and Hominy Stew
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 2 carrots, sliced
• 2-3 celery stalks, diced
• 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme, crumbled
• 1 bay leaf
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper
• 2 pound smoked pork neck
• 2 14 1/2-ounce cans chicken broth
• 1 14 1/2-ounce can sliced stewed tomatoes
• 3 large garlic cloves, finely chopped
• 2 15-ounce cans golden hominy, drained
Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat.
Add onion, carrots, celery, cumin, thyme, bay leaf,
oregano, and dried red pepper, and sauté for five minutes.
Add smoked pork neck, broth, tomatoes and garlic.
Simmer until pork is tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
Transfer pork to work surface. Remove meat and
cut into bite-size pieces. Discard fat and bones. Return
meat to pot. Add hominy and simmer until hominy is
just tender, about 15 minutes. Season to taste with salt
and pepper.

CLASSICAL GRASP - From Page 16
The European tour was tumultuous for Mozart.
He fell in love, his mom died and he couldn’t find a
job to save his life. You think the job market is hard
now MOZART COULDN’T FIND A JOB WRIT-
ING MUSIC!!! The music he heard in Mannheim and
Paris during that journey stirred so many emotional
memories for the guy that he was inspired to write this
really beautiful piece (hence the “Music from Memories”
title of our show).
It’s said that Mozart himself may have played the
viola part himself when it premiered (if you saw Amadeus,
you’ll know he was a bit of a show-off). The
Phil’s version features Phil principals Derek Reeves
on viola and David Ling on violin, both of whom are
amazing.
When the two solo instruments kick in during the
first movement, you can actually hear the violin and
viola chasing each other around, playing the same melody
lines in their own distinctive voices (the viola’s
is deeper than the violin’s). The second movement is
slower and in a contrasting minor key (“minor” being
the musical word for “sad”), and it climaxes kind of
operatically. The last movement is basically a happy
little dialogue between the violin and viola.
Although it’s not his most famous work, many
people consider this to be among their favorite Mozart
compositions, and it was one of the first classical pieces
I ever owned on cassette tape (I’m just that old).
You have two opportunities to hear the Chamber
concerts, September 28. The Coffee Concert begins at
11 a.m. Get there at 10 a.m. to enjoy coffee and pastries
from Firefly. If you’re a retiree, a homeschooled
family, or just have the morning off, this may be the
show for you.
If you’re not available mid-day on a Friday, then
come to the 7 p.m. After Hours show. Starting at 5:30
we’ll be serving food and drinks from Calhoun Street
Soup Salads and Spirits. And if you’re of the Twittersphere,
charge up that smart phone because this show
will debut The Phil’s Tweet Seats. (If you’re my age,
think of this as the modern-day pop-up video). Sameer
Patel will be on hand backstage, tweeting interesting
tidbits about the pieces and composers (far more interesting
– and factually accurate – than anything you’ve
read in this column) and you will have the opportunity
to share your thoughts and ask questions.
As we say here at The Phil, “You’ve got to hear it
live.” But if for some reason you can’t, you can follow
along with us via Twitter at @fwphil.

SUNDAY IN THE PARK - From Page 7
– and quite possibly even sing along.
Sunday in the Park with Jazz attendees are encouraged
to bring lawn chairs, blankets, coolers and
the like to Headwaters Park West for the show. Plenty
of delicious grub will be on hand from food vendors
such as Bravas Foods, Old Crown Coffee Roasters
and Smoothie King. And in the event of soggy weather,
the show will go on. The musicians will play under
the pavilion, which features ample covered seating if
needed.
NIPR on-air personalities and Sunday in the Park
with Jazz performers will be schmoozing with the
crowd during the show and in between sets, so be sure
to stick around to give them some love.
Maxwell says he is particularly excited to reconnect
with old friends he hasn’t seen in years in addition
to turning a new audience on to jazz.
“Jazz is all about improvisation, and by definition,
with improvisation you never know exactly what
to expect or where the music will take you,” he says.
“That gives the music a very strong potential energy
that, when allowed to flow freely, is extremely exciting
and energetic to experience. It will be a thrilling
event for seasoned jazz listeners and new fans alike!”

Road Notez
CHRIS HUPE
started writing a column for the Phoenix New Times called “Up On The Sun.” Here’s one
snippet: “The inherent problem with being a Chicken Little-type person is that if or when
the sky ever falls, I’ll be too flattened to snip.” Here’s another: “These are in fact the ‘End
of Days’ and people need to know about it as soon as possible! Obviously the only rational
thing to do is to clear out all of your bank accounts and send me a cashier’s check for the
full amount … along with that cashier’s check, I’m gonna need you to go ahead and send
along a detailed list of all your assets, toys, deeds, to any real estate, patents pending, etc.
Please include high resolution photos. I can’t be bothered to Google image each and every
one of them. Not enough time.” It sounds like Keenan is not taking himself too seriously
theses day. It’s a fun read if you’ve got an extra five minutes.
Animated band Dethlock will head out on the road this fall with Machine Head, All That
Remains and The Black Dahlia Murder in tow. The tour will kick off on October 30 in
Norfolk, Virginia and will run through December with dates in Columbus (Ohio), Detroit,
Grand Rapids and Chicago in early November. This is a must-see show for metal fans.
The Monster Energy Outbreak Tour will begin in November with Asking Alexandria
headlining a show that also includes As I Lay Dying, Suicide Silence, Memphis May
Fire and Attila. The organizers of the tour aim to keep ticket prices low while still offering
a great concert experience. Check it out when the bands hit the stage in Chicago, Detroit
and Cleveland at the beginning of December.
If that isn’t loud enough for ya, then maybe a Cannibal Corpse show is what your heart
desires. Just in time for the holidays, the biggest selling death metal band of all time will
hit the road to continue supporting their newest album Torture. The band visits the legendary
Machine Shop November 23 with Misery Index and Hour of Penance.
In what is sure to be one of the biggest tours of the winter, Green Day will embark on
their Uno! Dos! Tre! Tour beginning right after Thanksgiving. The band is releasing three
albums in the next four months, so they will have plenty of new stuff to play in between
their hits. Check them out January 8 near Chicago or January 30 in Cleveland.

Beasts an Admirable Effort But Fails to Create Movie Magic
Hushpuppy is a strong, independent landscapes.
alcohol looks like home-brewed moonshine,
child wandering around her own slice of wilderness
in Louisiana known as the Bathtub. nity of folks live, is just away from New Flix
of happy partying don’t outnumber episodes
The Bathtub, where this small commu-
but they also drink a lot of beer. Episodes
She wears big white plastic boots and lives Orleans. There is water everywhere, and oil
of being just plain wasted. And when things
in a trailer she has customized with her art drilling and refining facilities in the Bathtub CATHERINE LEE get tough, Wink, who often calls Hushpuppy
and artifacts of her missing mother. She’s six
and says wise and precocious things, mostly
to herself and to us in the audience. When
scientists way in the future come looking
to understand the past, she assures us, she
is leaving a record of her life for them to
find. In her mind she sees glaciers melting
and falling into the sea. If all this sounds as
precious as a Wes Anderson setup, let me assure
you, for better and worse, Beasts of the
Southern Wild is about as far from Moonrise
Kingdom as it gets.
Her father lives in another trailer across
a meadow. Mom took off. “She just swam
away” is what Wink, Hushpuppy’s father,
has told her. When Beasts of the Southern
Wild begins, Dad has been gone for a few
days. He has sometimes disappeared for a
day or two, but this is more. When he does
show up, he’s wearing a hospital gown. It is
clear he fled the hospital. It is clear to us that
his health problems are severe. Hushpuppy
thinks he is wearing a dress.
Hushpupppy and Wink are played by
two very talented non-professional actors,
Quevenzhane Wallis and Dwight Henry.
They and all their fellow castmates bring
authenticity and talent to these characters.
Beasts of the Southern Wild was shot in Louisiana
in bleak but beautiful, post-Katrina
can be seen here and there on the outskirts.
But the folks we meet want little to do with
the world of oil production. They band together
to live off the land and water they
love. Life isn’t easy, and it is about to get
harder.
There is a very big storm coming, and
these people are not about to abandon their
homes. Wink and Hushpuppy ride out the
hurricane by hunkering down at home. They
emerge to their roof to a wildly flooded landscape.
The waters have risen to catastrophic
levels. They board their homemade boat,
artfully put together from pieces of different
vehicles. They begin a search of the neighborhood
to see who left, who stayed and who
survived.
They find their friends, and this scrappy
group of survivors gets down to the business
of surviving. They go fishing and scavenging.
They celebrate their survival. When
things start to get really tough, they engage
in a clever act of sabotage to save the neighborhood.
Their resilience and cheerfulness
in face of these tribulations is easy to admire.
They have their brand of folksy religion.
They believe in mystical prehistoric
creatures called aurochs, which occasionally
appear in the film as giant boars with magnificent
tusks.
Director Benh Zeitlin co-wrote the
screenplay with Lucy Alibar who wrote the
play on which the film is based. The whole
cast and crew has poured heart and soul into
this small budget independent film. You
can’t deny the passion of the filmmakers
or the originality of what you are seeing on
screen. You can’t deny that Hushpuppy is the
kind of scrappy kid that movies love.
But with all of this going for it, Beasts
of the Southern Wild did not win me over. I
admire the ambition, but the mystical, magical
mood they are trying to create falls short.
They are trying to show us a last little bit
of idyllic island, away from the consumerism
and industrial disease, but the trade-off
didn’t work for me.
Wink loves Hushpuppy in his way, but
that way includes plenty of nasty, abusive
behavior. He wants her to grow up tough
and strong, but this means threatening her,
berating her, testing her, denying her tears
and giving her little to no affection. When
Hushpuppy strikes out to find her mother
and finds a worthy substitute, it turns out a
little affection will do.
Most of the adults in this world spend an
awful lot of time drinking. These folks don’t
ever seem to go to a store, and some of the
“Man,” thinks the two should bond by sharing
a shot or two. I know I’m supposed to
see this through a rosy haze of appreciation
as “the way of the Bathtub,” but it just gets
tedious.
Though there is much to admire about
Hushpuppy and how Wallis brings her to
life, the wise voice-over remarks really started
to make my eyes roll.
“If my daddy don’t get home soon, it’s
gonna be time for me to start eating my pets
... Sometimes you can break someone so bad,
it can’t be put together. ... When a man gets
sick here, they plug him into the wall ... We’s
what the earth is from ... When it all goes
quiet behind my eyes, I see everything that
made me flying around in invisible pieces.”
Some are pearls. Some are babble.
I found myself silently screaming to
Hushpuppy “Run! Get out!”
A book that haunts me and I greatly admire
is The Glass Castle, Jeanette Wall’s superb
memoir of growing up in very unusual
circumstances. I hope the fictional Hushpuppy
can transform her life the way Walls did.
I guess I can’t really deny the power of a fictional
film heroine that makes me hope she
can grow up to take her fierce intelligence
and courage out into the world.

A Collision of Beliefs
Rick Najera’s A Peculiar
People is a comedy
and a drama where
Curtain Call
personalities collide in
ancient Rome.
KATHLEEN CHRISTIAN
Justinian appears to
be a man of the world
with a stout philosophy a peculiar people
under his belt and a map
Fri.-Sat., Sept. 21-22 • 8 p.m.
to wealth. His only problem
is that he’s trapped Sun., Sept. 23 • 2:30 p.m.
in a prison cell with a fanatical
woman. Marium, 900 Library Plaza • Fort Wayne
ACPL Auditorium
his cell-mate, is a devout Tix.: $8-$15, 260-622-4610
Christian with an incessant
positivity, even in
www.allforonefw.org
the face of death.
Between the odd couples’ witty banter and laughable differences,
there are beatings and death threats made at knife point which come on
with such sudden intensity they’ll leave your jaw on its way to the floor.
The Centurion and his right-hand soldier see Christians as barbaric,
ritualistic atheists and frequent their cell in order to illicit information
about other Christians.
As the story unfolds, we are allowed a glimpse into the past of Justinian
and the heart of the Centurion who are much more than they appear
to be. We watch as selfish ambition and blind loyalty give way to the soldiers
and prisoners’ deeper understanding of humanity and each other’s
differences.
As Marium, Bridget Bogdon is a believably devout follower of
Christ, though her impassioned pleas often fall on the deaf ears of Eric
Black who plays Justinian. Black’s enthusiasm and energy give life to the
desperation of his character. Jeff Salisbury gives astounding depth and
intensity to the misunderstood Centurion.
The prisoners are warned that their lack of compliance will not be
taken so well by a visitor who is eager to meet a Christian in person. Indeed
the visiting dignitary, played by Dennis Nichols, has a dark cruelty
about him that is more deadly than the heavy-handed soldiers.
I was lucky enough to see an early performance of this one-weekend
engagement brought together beautifully by director Lauren Nichols.
Nichols was periodically able to work directly with award-winning writer
Najera to clearly communicate his vision.
A Peculiar People accomplishes much in its relatively short duration.
It serves as a comedic break from grueling reality and is an inspirational
tale of bravery and acceptance, two values that might be more important
now than ever before.

put together by Fort Wayne Museum of Art each and
every September. On that occasion, the Museum of
Art uses its own high profile to attract art lovers not
just to its own venue but to a host of small galleries
and museums that may not be on every Fort Wayne
resident’s radar the rest of the year. Along with good
food and drink at each destination, buses and trolleys
motor guests from one venue to another, greatly
simplifying the effort and making parking a breeze.
Up until now, there’s been but one drawback to
the Trolley Tour: having to go to work the next day.
With its traditional Thursday date, it was a bit of a
drag to know that the next morning duty would call,
especially if you had an extra glass (or two) of wine.
Thanks to this year’s move to a Friday night, that’s
no longer a concern. Now scheduled for Friday, September
21, the Trolley Tour is also a full week before
Fort4Fitness activities, so even those delightful morsels
will have a full week to be digested before you
have to hit the road and race.
Not that food and libation are the only reasons
to attend Trolley Tour, though they do provide a delightful
incentive to get your art on. And this year
there’s another new venue to visit along the way,
with Artlink now housed in its new galleries, moved
into a month or so after last year’s tour. Happily and
beautifully settled in the Auer Center for Arts & Culture,
Artlink now has much more space than it had in
the past, and with more class offerings, its opportunities
to connect continue to grow.
That growth will be especially evident to those
who may not have visited since the last Trolley Tour,
as Artlink is housing four major exhibits, including
Watermedia 360° which includes 30 pieces from
12 different artists; FortWear, fashion designed by
nine Indiana artists; County Fair, an interactive installation
by West Lafayette artist Zach Medler; and
a photography exhibit featuring the work of Claire

“Artlink is excited to be at the Auer Center for

hope everyone will walk across the street to enjoy
four wonderful exhibits and the delicious food during
Trolley Tour.”

have to get up early the next morning.

Vanilla Nice Nice Baby
I Suck at Girls by
Justin Halpern, Itbooks, 2012
I have sympathy for Justin On Books
Halpern. That might seem like an
odd thing to say about a writer
EVAN GILLESPIE
who’s published a best-selling
book and had a TV series developed
based on his work. But it has
to be difficult to be Halpern; he
didn’t ask to be where he is, and
now he’s forced to deliver on expectations
that must be baffling to
him. He’s doing his best, I’m sure,
but his latest book, I Suck at Girls,
shows that the path forward for his
writing career might not be clearly
marked.
Halpern became famous because
of his Twitter feed, in
which he broadcast
profanity-laden
quotes from his
father. It was meant
to be a casual thing
that would make his
friends laugh, but it
exploded, eventually
attracting more than a
million followers. Then
came a book deal, followed
by a TV sitcom
starring William Shatner,
all of it based entirely on the fact
that Halpern’s dad had no filter
on his mouth, and the things that
came out of it were often funny.
I don’t think it truly surprised
anyone that the TV series, officially
titled $#*! My Dad Says, was
a flop; there was no reason to believe
that a collection of random,
unrelated tweets could be shaped
into a coherent premise for a show,
especially a sitcom featuring Shatner.
But regardless of the show’s
lack of success, Halpern now had
a platform as a writer, and people
were willing to listen to what he
had to say. He could either keep
collecting quotes from his father,
or he could try to do something
different. I Suck at Girls is his
choice.
The book is a memoir, a series
of vignettes linked together thematically
via Halpern’s romantic
successes and failures (more of
the latter). It begins with the cute
red-haired girl in second grade that
he tormented affectionately, and
it continues until Halpern marries
the girl of his dreams (a breakup
with whom triggered the creation
of the Twitter feed that got this
whole ball rolling). In between are
interludes featuring Hooters waitresses,
European disco girls, porn,
a disastrous prom night and various
other dating misfires.
The stories are amusing and
unfold in Halpern’s gently selfdeprecating
style. He seems like
an extremely nice guy; in fact, he’s
sort of the anti-Tucker Max, whose
internet-fueled sexual escapades (I
Hope They Serve Beer in Hell) set
the standard for the worst of human
behavior. Halpern, on
the other hand, is never anything
less than sweet. No
matter how much booze
he has in him, he never
turns into a Max-like
ape. When he drinks too
much, he doesn’t abuse
anyone; he just gets a
tummy ache.
Halpern’s niceness
works as a foil
for his dad’s lack
of niceness, but his dad
doesn’t feature as prominently in
this book as he did in Halpern’s
first. The result is a book that is almost
unremittingly nice from beginning
to end, and I have mixed
feelings about that. His dad’s
tough-love abrasiveness can be
wearying, but he does add some
spice when he shows up.
The problem isn’t that Halpern
is too nice – I certainly have no desire
to read another frat-boy pukefest
– but that he’s just as nice as
most of the rest of us. His stories
of awkward adolescent romance
are familiar, but they’re unremarkable.
I’m glad that he made the
best of things and found someone
to love, but his challenges and triumphs
were pretty much the same
things that we’ve all experienced;
absent some unique twists, or at
least a particularly engaging way
of looking at the ordinary, the
book reads like your best friend’s
diary – maybe fun, maybe sweet,
but nothing too surprising.
When he started his Twitter
feed, Halpern never claimed that
he had anything extremely interesting
to say, but for the sake of
his career as an author, I hope he
thinks of something soon.

SCREENTIME - From Page 30
If you’ve not seen this impressive ensemble piece lately, I recommend
checking it out again, if only to recount the many moments of production
and performance brilliance. In my opinion, one of the great modern films,
up there with gusto-driven signature works like Pulp Fiction, My Own
Private Idaho, Do the Right Thing and The Royal Tenenbaums. (A+)
