Yet another victory for the makersof cheap, tasty, intoxicating beverages.One of those very few, a barn-burnerperformance by the Nashville-based ThoseDarlins, comes to mind as clear as day. At thetime, the three-girl-and-one-dude lineup wason a seemingly never-ending tour in supportof their 2009 eponymousdebut, a twangy record withstandouts like “Red LightLove,” “Wild One” and“Snaggle Tooth Mama.”By the time the girls madeit to Fort Wayne, they werea different band than theone heard on said record.They had a whole newbatch of songs and had,for the most part, becomesomething of a rowdy rockn’ roll band. That night theDarlins kicked and spit andpartied, playing a blow-outset that captivated and energizedeveryone in theroom.Fast-forward to March29 of this year. The Darlinsare on the road somewhere,still going fromtown to town in their oldvan. On this day, their secondrecord, Screws Get Loose, hits iTunesand record stores shelves everywhere. Thewrite-ups are great, and the record, releasedby the band’s own Oh Wow Dang label,takes the No. 1 spot on one of the many Billboardcharts. Suddenly, this little self-madeband seems anew. No longer are they thefolk-influenced Southern Belle types. Nothardly at all. In their places rises a garagepunkcrew with a record full of hit songs.Four months and many cities since, Ifind myself on the phone with Kelley Darlin,one of the best-spoken rocker types you’relikely to come across. She is, once again, ina van somewhere in America, going fromtown to town with her bandmates, NikkiDarlin, Jessi Darlin and drummer LinwoodRegensburg (who has seemingly played abig part in the band’s fuller studio sound,playing not just percussion, but a fair shareof guitar throughout the record).“Yeah, we’re in the van,” Kelley laughs.“I think we’re in the middle of the desert,driving through Arizona. It’s only 94 hereand it’s 96 in Nashville, where we’re mostlyfrom.”Two weeks prior to our talk, I’d heard“Red Light Love” coming out of my television,playing over a Kia Sorento commercial.This, of course, would have to be myfirst question.“Our family members and friends getreally excited when they see that commercial,”Kelley said with as much twang as avoice can handle. “In a way it’s a big deal tothem. It makes it more real to them, what wedo. And I guess having your music playedover and over again on national television isa nice perk we can’t complain about.”Next up, I ask about the new ScrewsGet Loose, an album I’ve listened to many,many times since its still-recent release. Kelley,who has been talking about the recordto phoners like myself for months, had verylittle to say. Call it phone fatigue. She toldme that the band drove down to The LivingTHOSE DARLINSw/So So GlosSaturday, Aug. 13 • 9 p.m.Calhoun Street Soups, Salads &Spirits1915 Calhoun St., Fort WayneAdmission: $7, 260-456-7005Room Studio in Atlanta to record with JeffCurtin who produced their first record. Atlanta?Fitting, I suppose, when you considerthe current garage-rock-heavy reputationthat town has.Then, predictably, I ask Kelley to tell meabout the week the record was released. I askthis because the Darlins are a true DIY band.They own their own label and leave theirfingerprints on every piece of the puzzlethat’s gotten them where they are today. So,that DIY backbone in mind, I was curious toknow how the huge amount of recent successfelt after years of tireless work.“Well, we were on tour when the newalbum came out. When our first album cameout we did a big hometown release showwith the Black Lips that was really hyped up.All our family and friends came and it wasa big deal,” Kelley explained, talking loudlyover the howl of a nearby GPS unit. “But thenew album just sort of came out while wewere on the road. So even though the albummade a bigger splash with national press andstuff, it didn’t feel like as big of a deal as thefirst album. So it was just kind of like: this iswhat we do, I guess.”Eight of the record’s 11 tracks were writtenor co-written by Jessi, the band’s fierylittle lead guitarist. Not surprisingly, Jessihad always come off as the most rock n’ rollcentricmember of the band, giving off someserious punk rock vibes in the band’s musicvideos and live performances. (Kelley comesoff as an indie rock/country belle hybridwhile Nikki has a slacker/stoner/rocker appeal.)This in mind, I next ask Kelley aboutthe band’s new sound, another question I’msure she’s been answeringfor months.“When we were playingout in support of thefirst album, it all just keptgetting louder and moredistorted. I think we kindof got tired of playing allacoustic, too,” she said.“And after a while weadded a drummer, whichchanged things, so it wasjust a natural progressionto go from more countrystuff to more rock n’ rolltype stuff. And we’d allbeen in rock n’ roll bandsbefore. But I think we stilllove to play old countrymusic too.”For those unfamiliarwith the Darlins, the bandstarted off as an all-femaletrio based out of Murfreesboro,Tennessee – a placeI’m told may be one of the most interestingsmall towns in the country.“Most of our band lives in Nashvillenow, but I still live in Murfreesboro. It’s justa college town, really, with a big school anda great music recording program,” Kelleyexplained. “So there are a ton of musicians.And since it’s a college town, more peoplethere can afford the time to be creative. Butthings have maybe dropped off a bit. Tenyears ago or so I think Murfreesboro hada better rock n’ roll scene than Nashville,which is like 45 minutes away. But nowNashville has a great underground rock n’roll scene.”Living in two different towns afteryears of living together, in the same house,in Murfreesboro, Kelley told me, hasn’t reallychanged anything. For the most part, shesays, the band lives together in vans and hotelrooms, spending almost all of their timeon the road over the last few years.With a TV commercial that plays seeminglyon the hour, a hit record and a solidtouring reputation, I was curious to knowwhat was next for the band.“Well, we’ve been road testing somenew songs already. Looking forward. I’mnot even sure what genre you’d call thenew stuff, but I think it’s probably more girlgroup-y than the other stuff we’ve done.”Continued on page 6

---------------- Feature • The Tossers----------------A Side of BrogueBy Mark HunterIf you like your music fast and furiouswith a side of brogue and maybe a whiskeyor two, then The Tossers are the band foryou. Hailing from the Irish neighborhoodsdotting Chicago’s south side, The Tosserspile traditional Irish music into a blender,toss in healthy dollops of punk and rock andhit puree. What pours out is a flavorful concoctionthat will surely get your feet movingin ways you didn’t think possible.The Tossers bring their Celtic/punk fusionto the Botanical Roots Outdoor ConcertSeries Friday, August 19. Local Celtic/punkers The Staggerers open.Named for the Shakespeare-era term for“throw-away” (the word also means commode,drunk or the bunk British currencythe Irish rejected after their independencein the 1920s), The Tossers got their start inChicago in 1992 when lifelong pals TonyDuggins, who plays mandolin and sings,and Bones, the band’s drummer, decidedto team up. They quickly pulled in bass/accordionplayer Dan Shaw and began playingbars and other venues around Chicago.“They just started playing out whereverthey could,” guitar player Mike Pawulatold me in a recent phone interview. “Theyplayed some all-ages clubs and eventuallygot more and more exposure.”The band released a couple of tapes (asin cassette tapes, for those of you too youngto recall such ancient technology) in ’94 and’95, when they signed with Thick Records, aChicago label.Pawula, who joined in 1999, said theyears between the band’s formation androughly 2002 saw a number of lineup fluctuations.“There have been a lot of life changesin the last 18 years,” he said. “People startedfamilies, moved, that sort of thing. But sinceabout 2002 the lineup has been the same.That’s when our violin player left and wegot a fiddler.”Though not really looking for a replacementon the violin, Pawula said he and hisbandmates had just finished a gig in Madison,Wisconsin and were at a party when astudent from the University of Wisconsinintroduced herself.“We met her and everyone liked her,” hesaid. “We weren’t really holding auditions,but she told us she was a fiddler and weasked to come on down and play. She reallyworked out well.”Rebecca Manthe, now in her ninth yearTHE TOSSERSw/The StaggerersFriday, Aug. 19 • 8:30 p.m.Foellinger-FreimannBotanical Conservatory1100 S. Calhoun St., Fort WayneTix: $6, children under 12 freewith adult, 260-427-6440with The Tossers, is the only member of theband without Irish roots. Aaron Duggins, tinwhistler and brother of Tony, rounds out thelineup. The band used to have a banjo playertoo, but he left to start a family.The Tossers are often linked with otherCeltic/punk/folk bands such as FloggingMolly, Dropkick Murphys and The Popes,bands that came along after The Tossers.Pawula said The Tossers’ version of Celtic/punk is more roots-based than those otherbands. “When it comes down to it we couldplay everything like the traditional music.We are more in line with traditional Irishmusic than some of the other bands. We feelvery true to it, but, of course, we let our owninfluences permeate what we do.”In 2007, they opened for The Pogues onSt. Patrick’s Day in New York City. But theContinued on page 8-----------Cover Story • Rage on the River----------Rock on the WaterBy Chris HupeAs you walk through the city, you canfeel the anticipation.No, it’s not anticipation for the upcomingfootball season, although that anticipationis obviously sweeping through the cityas well. The anticipation we’retalking about is for the Rageon the River all-day concert atHeadwaters Park on August 20.Sponsored by the soon-tobe-openeddowntown club NewYork, New York, Rage on theRiver features six national rockbands along with one nationallyknown local band and two localbands with a lot of upside potential.It’s a full day’s worth ofrock worthy of cities twice thesize of Fort Wayne, but takingplace right here in our own communityand without that dreadedtwo-hour commute home.According to event organizerDino Zurzulo, one of the greatthings about Rage on the Riveris that it’s not just another rockconcert; it actually fills a need.“There haven’t been any rockshows scheduled downtown fora long time. We thought thereshould be. We have CountryFest, tribute bands and the occasionalrap or hip-hop showdowntown, but rock seems tohave been missing for a while.We wanted to fill that void andat the same time give people anotherreason tocome downtownfor a day.”This isn’tZurzulo’s firstshot at presentinga rock show.He also runs theOriginal BeerTent on ColumbiaStreet thatbrought EgyptCentral, Ricochetand severalothers into anoutdoor setting last year. This is the basicallysame thing but on a much larger scale.“We’re going to have vendors, food andbooths to create a festival-type atmosphere,”Zurzulo said. “It’s an all-ages event, so wewant there to be something for everyone todo. It’s not just a beer tent. It’s one of thebiggest parties of the summer.”Headlining the event are Fort favoritesHalestorm. Hailing from Pennsylvania,Lzzy Hale and company have played FortWayne several times, even before the releaseof their 2009 self-titled debut album. Nowtouring in support of their live CD/DVD,Live in Philly, and their EP of cover songscalled ReAnimate, Halestorm continue togrow their fan base and build anticipationfor their upcoming sophomore effort, tentativelyscheduled for an early 2012 release. Ina recent interview with Revolver magazine,Hale said, “The new songs sound amazing!We’re experimenting with different guitartones and pushing ourselves outside of ourcomfort zones so there will be many weirdHALESTORMRAGE ON THE RIVERfeat.

What I’m applying to our new recordis the resistance to settling and theconfidence in knowing that there really isno limit to how much you can actually pulloff.”Though no new songs are likely to beplayed at this show, you can count on Halebringing one of the best voices in rock to thestage and melting many faces while she beltsout “I Get Off,” “It’s Not You” and possiblySkid Row’s “Slave to the Grind.”Also on the bill are All That Remains,fresh off their Piere’s appearance openingContinued on page 27August 11, ’11------------------------------------------------------------------- www.whatzup.com- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5

I’m glad I did. TheHills Are in Bloom is a very polished production, and John Mintonis a masterful songwriter/lyricist with a grand vision and killer senseof humor. The CD is loaded with lots of witty phrases and one-linersthroughout.On this, his third solo album, Minton takes everyday, mundanesubject matter and crafts it into something fun and, at times, a bitunusual. He spins every track on the disc into a short story that caneasily be played out and seen in the mind’s eye – kind of like a littlemovie. Minton covers everything from DUI’s to greed to heartbreakand lust with great ease and a simplistic flow. The hooks are verycatchy and well thought out, especially on the songs “Your Brain HasGot A Mind All It’s Own” and “Pick Poor Robin Clean.”The musical stylings are absolutely bluegrass, but mixed withobvious influences that combine Bill Monroe, a young Elvis, JohnnyCash, dirty blues and rockabilly. Minton has a real talent for takingyou back in time, and the entire CD has a very “old school” feel andutilizes a plethora of different instruments and sounds without beingoverwhelming. Every sound has a very subtle feel, like a cool breezeon a lazy Sunday afternoon in the sunshine.The Hills Are in Bloom is the kind of CD that targets lovers ofall things old and from a simpler time, but can be enjoyed by fansof most any kind of music, and that’s by no means an easy task toaccomplish. (Michael “Myke D” Deaton)MelvinsBullhead (1991)From the opening riffs in “Boris,”you stumble and crawl around this audiobattlefield for eight minutes tryingto figure out who they sound like. Is itSabbath or a slowed-down version ofDeep Purple? It doesn’t matter; mostMelvin fans don’t care if you can’t fit them into a genre. I don’tthink it matters to the band either.Formed in the mid-80s, these were the guys who started thegrunge revolution in the northwest United States. Bullhead, theirthird release on Boner Records featured Dale Crover on drums,Roger ‘Buzz’ Osborne on guitars and vocals and Lori ‘Lorax’Black on the bass. About the record: it’s really, really good. After“Boris” you are treated to the usual two- to four-minute Melvinssongs that you are more accustomed to.“Anaconda” is Soundgarden with a dash of Dead Kennedys,and “Ligature” is dark and metallic in its taste. “It’s Shoved”starts off with a fat bass and drums until you get the guitars andfeedback you think you rightly deserve. “Zodiac” follows and isan introduction for anybody who wants to start a band – simplechords, changes and stiff 70s punk arrangements with a little acidrock. It would sound great in your garage.“Your Blessened” starts off like a sound check and then riffsaway for five minutes. Sure, it sounds like the rest of the record,but it has a Black Flag vibe to it – not a bad thing. The albumcloses with “Cow,” a heavy jam that comes with what I woulddescribe as a drum solo on mushrooms.The Melvins have had a lot of members since the beginning(Lorax left in the mid 90s), but I would take this record over anythingelse they ever did. Fun fact: Lori Black’s mother is 1930schild star Shirley Temple. (Dennis Donahue)AntlersBurst ApartThe record that broke Brooklynbasedindie rockers Antlers, 2009’sHospice, was simultaneously a perfectingof their early sound and hintof something bigger. The record, essentiallyhigh concept art-rock approachedin a minimalist fashion, endedup doing quite well after FrenchkissRecords cleaned it up and gave it worldwide distribution, earningsome of the best reviews of 2009. Now, just two years later, we haveBurst Apart, a 10-song make-or-break epic full of grand ideas, surprisesand … well … an oft-debilitating problem.Let’s start with the bad, the blanket issue with this very good record:the production. On past records Peter Silberman (the head Antler)made somewhat lo-fi, modest recordings of songs that seeminglyalways wanted to be bigger than the limitations of being a strugglingband would allow. It was a sound/formula that worked very wellfor the songwriter, especially on Hospice. For Burst Apart, a recordbound to see quite a bit of attention, Silberman could do just aboutanything he wanted – and, thus, the sound is different. It’s bigger andcleaner, at times resembling contemporaries like Grizzly Bear, MercuryRev and even Radiohead. And while the music benefits fromthe improved recording approach, Silberman’s vocals suffer dearly.Previously buried in the mix and coming off a bit rough, Silbermanhere almost sounds like a show choir kid, howling away in a sometimesoff-putting manner that can only be described as overly dramatic,even effeminate. I suppose the same thing could be said aboutRadiohead’s Thom Yorke, but there’s something about the vocals onBurst Apart that I just can’t get over. It’s almost as if Silberman isattempting to keep his artsy credentials while also taking aim at theabandoned Coldplay fans.After a few spins I found that Burst Apart’s vocals neither grewon me nor ruined the record. Mainly, I’d been absolutely won overby the compositions on Burst Apart, easily some of 2011’s mostinteresting. Best described as “electronic chamber pop,” the soundhere is actually quite organic, feeling very hypnotic and dense, attimes carrying the songs as Silberman, thankfully, falls into the background,singing wordless melodies as horns blow in the distance andcountless layers of subtle piano and guitar twist into a haunting mix.The playing and mix is very intricate and detailed, making for a recordthat rewards familiarity.Opener “I Don’t Want Love” is a hook-filled, left-field chamberpop tune that feels very much like the kind of hip song you’d hearduring a tender moment on a show like “Grey’s Anatomy” or “GossipGirl.” If Antlers are destined to have a breakout single, this isvery likely the one that will do it. Standouts “Tiptoe,” “Hounds,”“Parentheses,” “Rolled Together” and “French Exit” wisely don’trely on Silberman’s voice, using vocals only to add to the powerfulplaying and arranging –not vice-versa. Playing these five songstogether, outside the structure of the album, brought to mind SigurRos, a much different sounding band who have had similar issueswith recording and mixing their vocals over the years.What we end up with is a very good record that could’ve so easilybeen great. Imagine a bigger, more organic version of Boards ofCanada mixed with Grizzly Bear and you’ll have an idea of what thecompositions on Burst Apart sound like. Now, if only we could mutethose cheesy sex vocals, or at least bury them in the mix, similar tohow they were treated on Hospice. Find a way to do that and you justmight have the best record of 2011 on your hands. Either way, BurstApart is most definitely worth getting to know. (Greg W. Locke)THE TOSSERS - From Page 5more important dates came when The Tossers finally made it to Irelandand Europe in 2008. “We played Belfast and Dublin,” Pawulasaid. “The crowd in Dublin was fantastic. We had a good old time.”The Tossers have released seven full-length albums, the mostrecent being On a Fine Spring Evening, which came out in 2008. Anearlier record, 2000’s Long Dim Road, made the Illinois Entertainer’s2006 list of the best 25 CDs from the previous decade. Others onthat list included records from notables such as Smashing Pumpkins,Alkaline Trio, Disturbed, R Kelly and Mavis Staples.The band’s bio says that, while The Tossers live shows are “fueledwith a little bit of blood and sweat and a whole lot of whiskeyand beer, their albums are dedicated to musical elegance and provocation.”For Pawula, the “provocation” may come from the Jameson’sIrish Whiskey he prefers, but the elegance comes from a loveof the traditional melodies and lyrics of Irish music.“We find ways to reinvent it and have fun with it,” he said.“We’ve been at it so long we don’t know what else to do.”8----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- www.whatzup.com- ---------------------------------------------------------------- August 11, ’11

ugust 11, ’11------------------------------------------------------------------- www.whatzup.com- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 21InsidiousThere are parts of director James Wan’s Insidiousthat are so scary you briefly question your judgmentin having chosen to watch it for, you know, thepurposes of “light” entertainment. In fact, there’sa brilliantly staged and edited 10-minute sequenceabout a third of the way in, taking place in themiddle of the night, that manages to terrify us in atleast half a dozen ways. And by “terrify” I mean theold-fashioned, slow-building kind of dread and fearthat has largely been replaced with simple “gotcha”moments in most modern horror movies. It’s a scenethat rivals anything in The Strangers and even Poltergeist,even if it doesn’t come close to generatingthe kind of deep-seated terror found in The Exorcistor Paranormal Activity. (Insidious is co-produced byOren Pelli, who created Paranormal Activity, thoughthe two movies rely on a completely different bag oftricks to raise our collective goose-bumps.)Insidious starts soon after the Lambert familyhas moved into a new home. While exploringup in the attic, 8-year-old Dalton(Ty Simpkins) falls and hurtshimself. Even though he seemsokay at the time, within hours hehas slipped into an unexplainedcoma that lasts months, with nosign of improvement on the horizon.Dalton’s stay-at-home motherRenai (Rose Byrne) is at her wit’send as increasingly strange and upsettingevents begin to occur aroundthe house, while Renai’s husband Josh(Patrick Wilson), a teacher, spends moreand more time away from home, in denialthat anything is wrong. Dalton’s brotherFoster (Andrew Astor), meanwhile, claimsto have seen Dalton walking around thehouse in the middle of the night ...Things get worse from there, and I don’twant to spoil the fun by even suggesting some of thechilling events that await. You’ll just have to trust mewhen I say that, for the better part of its first hour,Insidious is top-notch horror.The second half of the movie, though, goes toofar in the direction of outlandish explanations andsilly more-is-more imagery. The climax elicits somethingcloser to laughter than gasping – too manyghosts, too much everything-but-the-kitchen-sinksurrealism – and though the movie as a whole isn’tas ridiculously over the top as, say, 1408 from a fewyears ago, its still a little too much Disney HauntedMansion in its set design, with not nearly enoughstuff left to our imagination.If you think about the plot too long, certain weaknessesand unanswered questions begin to emerge,questions that make you realize the whole is substantiallyless than the sum of its parts. But I hesitate tosteer any horror aficionados away from Insidious. Idon’t normally recommend a movie just for a fewscenes, but I do here, because any horror movie thatmakes your flesh crawl like this one does, at least inparts, is worth checking out.On VideoDEREK NEFF[REC] 2The Spanish horror film [REC] was a surprisehit when it came out in 2007, and the faithful Americanremake, Quarantine, was only slightly less wellreceivedthan its predecessor. (Both are excellent.)They did so well, in fact, that the Spanish languagesequel has just been released on DVD, and the Englishlanguage Quarantine 2 will be arriving straightto DVD any day now. The two sequels have very differentplots, though, and it’s hard to see how Quarantine2, which takes place on an airplane, couldmeasure up against [REC] 2, which takes place inexactly the same tenement building as the original.Not only does it take place in the samebuilding, it picks up within moments ofwhere the first [REC] left off. (For thisreason, I wouldn’t recommend seeingthe sequel until you’ve first seen partone, the more recently the better.)As the first movie came to aclose, you’ll recall, intrepid TV journalist/heroineÁngela (Manuela Velasco)finds herself in some verydeep doo-doo indeed in the building’sattic. (The attic is where thecontagion that has turned everyonearound her into frenziedzombies originated.)[REC] 2 opens witha heavily-armed SWAT teamentering the blood-drenchedbuilding after being given only thevaguest of debriefings as to what actuallyawaits them within. (Everything we see comes fromthe small cameras affixed to their helmets.) Oncethey’re inside the building the men are introduced tothe mysterious man who’s been placed in charge ofthe operation (Óscar Zafra), and within minutes oneof the SWAT officers is being attacked by one of thecreepy-as-hell zombie creatures. And things only getworse from there.At one point during this intense first act of themovie, the officers encounter a group of teenagekids, one of whom is holding a camcorder of hisown. The second act of the movie shows what thesekids see, from their camera’s point of view, until thetwo storylines converge for the climactic third act.What the teens go through is much more disturbingto us because we get to know each of them a lot betterthan we do the SWAT officers, who never reallydifferentiate themselves in our minds enough for usto care about them when they start getting killed off.[REC] 2 explains more about how and why the rabies-likecontagion came to exist in the first place.(Hint: the Vatican is involved, and the contagionContinued on page 27Membership MakesThe Difference• Job Referrals• Experienced Negotiators• Insurance• Contract ProtectionFort WayneMusicians AssociationCall Bruce Graham$4 75 for moreinformation260-420-4446Monday & WednesdayMartinis10337 Illinois Rd., Fort Wayne260.625.5600------- Calendar • Stage & Dance--------Now PlayingAl w a y s ...

We see bits of the parents together,Flix– the way of nature and the way of grace. In this family, Dad isaking in our time, so it may be easy to discount or ignore thebits of the brothers together and bits the boys with each parent.itle as you head off to the theater. But do keep in mind, this is CATHERINE LEEot a Brad Pitt movie, though Pitt gives a bracing, memorableerformance. The Tree of Life is a Terrence Malick movie.What does that mean? A lot. It means you are watching alm directed by a man who studied philosophy with Stanleyavell at Harvard, graduating with highest honors. He becameRhodes scholar but never finished his studies. This didn’ttop him from publishing his own translation of Heidegger,The Essence of Reasons.”With this training he became a filmmaker, making films unikethe films of anyone else working today. He doesn’t makeany films. He doesn’t make just any film, and he doesn’take a film that isn’t completely his to shape. Watching hisovies is to be in the world of a real artist. That’s not alwaysn easy landscape.I’ve seen three of his previous four commercially releasedlms. His first two films, Badlands and Days of Heaven, arewo of my favorite films. I found The Thin Red Line maddenng.I loved it and hated it. I saw it twice in the theater. I lovedow brilliantly it evoked the tremendous waste and sicknessf war. I hated how Malick’s gorgeous and visual languageometimes went off the track indulgently breaking the spell.Because of my love/hate relationship with The Thin Redine I dilly-dallied when The New World was released. I knewshould see it, but I fretted that what I hadn’t liked wouldoom large in a retelling of the relationship between Pochanasand John Smith. The picture didn’t linger in town, and Iissed it. (Malick’s films are so visual I can’t bring myself toent it and watch it, not how it was made to be seen.)I have vowed never to miss a Malick film in theaters again.eeing The Tree of Life makes it easy to know I will keephat vow. I experienced some twitchiness and frustration, butostly I was thrilled and delighted to be caught up in Malck’svision and expression of the world. I see so many movies.It is very relaxing to be in hands of someone who reallyknows what he is doing and makes almost impossibly beautifulfilms.The Tree of Life is the first Malick film to include charactersliving today. Most of the film is set in Waco, Texas in the1950s (it was shot in another Texas town, Smithville). But,as I had read, and you may have heard, the film includes thebeginning of the world, a glowing essence that seems to beGod, the end of the world, dinosaurs, volcanic eruptions, cellssplitting, birth, decay and, everywhere, the hint of death.I watched, worrying that I might find the lapses into naturalphenomena an irritating distraction. Instead, I found theseglorious and a welcome bit of breathing away from the cosmicquestioning, the nearly silent pleas for understanding. Everyframe of this movie is gorgeous, and the soundtrack by AlexandreDesplat and sprinkled with Brahms and Berlioz adds tothe loveliness.The film begins with a quote from Job, “Where were youwhen I laid the foundations of the earth?” Then we meet Jack,an adult businessman, played by Sean Penn, working in andamong gleaming office towers in Texas. He is grieving andremembering. We are told that Jack’s younger brother diedmany years earlier at the age of 19. This tragedy still hauntsJack, and we spend much of the film in the world of childhoodJack remembers.I don’t think any filmmaker working today is as good asevoking innocence as Malick. With almost no words (many ofthe words are heard in quiet mumbled voice-over and dialogueis sparse) the world from a child’s point of view is achingly,accurately portrayed. Life is safe and lazy, full of discovery,running around outside and tussling with friends and family.What we see are little snippets of life. When we first arriveJust because narrative and words aren’t primary doesn’tmean the actors aren’t essential. Though it is a mostly happyfamily, there are bits of turmoil and upset, and the actors haveto express a lot without many words.Pitt is especially good. With his crewcut and modest appearance,he affects a middle-aged, slightly beaten downstance and walk that tells us a lot and is the opposite of thesmooth demeanor he wears as a con man in any of the Oceanmovies.His eruptions of temper, disappointments and passions aremysterious to his sons, Hunter McCracken as the young Jackand Laramie Eppler as R.L. The dynamic of being part of afamily and still not really understanding what is happeningand why is eloquently realized. Jessica Chastain is an angelof a mom, keeping the happiness and peace of the family bypaying close attention to what everyone needs.There is no driving narrative in The Tree of Life. Ideas,events and questions flow back and forth, and because theyare so sharply observed and expressed, I could, for the mostpart, suspend my usual need for narrative. But by the end theweight of the sorrow coming – and becoming the sorrow thatis always there – was exhausting and almost unbearable.I knew that in Malick’s world there was no resolution tothis calling out to the universe, “Why all this beauty and loveif it all disappears into suffering and death?” So when thebeauty and mystery give way, what’s left feels frustratinglyhollow. But most of The Tree of Life is beautiful and strikessuch a resonant chord that I’m sure I’ll be haunted by its imagesand the struggles of one Texas family.Catherine Lee is the executive director of Fort WayneCinema Center, the only independently operated movie theaterin Fort Wayne, specializing in independent, foreign,documentary, specialty and classic films.

The local/ational band mentioned earlier is Downstait, while the other two bandsre Kill the Rabbit and Soma. According to Jerrdog, host of the Localicks show on 98.9 The Bear, “We, along with Dino, thought it would beool to have some local bands on a big show like this because it showseople that The Bear supports the local scene. We sometimes hear comlaintsfrom bands that want to open for national acts at other venues, butontrary to popular belief, we do not pick the bands at shows we sponsor.his is one of the rare chances to show off some local talent, and I thinkhese three bands will do a great job.”Local bands were chosen for the show by looking at the Fort rockcene as a whole and picking out a few of the bands that are having theost impact at the moment. “Downstait was a pie-in-the-sky dream,”errdog said. “They currently have three songs featured every week onWWE Monday Night Raw’ and another song on MTV’s ‘Road Rules/eal World Challenge.’ We actually didn’t think they would want to playhis show because, as you know, local bands don’t get paid. But to theirredit, they were like, ‘Hell yeah, we’ll do it!’”Kill the Rabbit, playing second on the bill, are one of the hottestands in the area right now, having won the whatzup Battle of the Bandsast year and being voted Performer of the Year by whatzup readers.errdog says “KTR are one of the most diverse and popular bands in thecene and have a great fan base that always comes out and supports theand.”The addition of Soma to the bill provides a high-energy, up-and-comngband from the area with a frontman, Johnny Soma, who promotes hisand like no other band in the area. “Truth be told,” Jerrdog continued,there were a lot of other bands we would have liked to ask as well, bute only had three slots, so these are the ones we chose.”Shows like Rage on the River don’t come to northeast Indiana veryften, so the opportunity is here to show promoters and national bandshat The Fort can rock out with the best of ’em.“We’re planning on doing this every year,” said Zurzulo, “as well asoing another show on Columbia Street next summer, so we’re hopinghis show will be a success” and a beginning point of even bigger showso come. “I like downtown Fort Wayne a lot so we want to use it as muchs possible for whatever we have going on in the future.”ON VIDEO - From Page 21wasn’t exactly cooked up in Orville Redenbacher’s test kitchen.) Thismight be the only movie I’ve seen that combines tropes from both zombiemovies and movies about demonic possession.I missed the slow build-up that helped make the first [REC] so good,a build-up which allowed us to laugh along with the characters’ banteringand flirting, and which also provided us with a sense of realism andnormalcy before the horror began. In part two, there is no descent, nodowntime; the stakes are never anything less than extremely dire from theget-go. After awhile this gets a bit exhausting, especially since we don’treally ever get to know the characters that well. Still, filmmakers JaumeBalaguero and Paco Plaza employ even more formal ingenuity here thanthey did in their first movie, and so much loving care has been given tothe sheer visual cleverness of the whole thing (and the terrific if modestspecial effects) that it seems churlish to complain.Compared to part one, [REC] 2 is a distinct disappointment, but comparedto 98 per cent of the other horror movies out there, it more thanholds its own.derekneff1@yahoo.com-------------------------- Classified Ads--------------------------Arts & Craf tscraft & hobby SUPPLIESCheck out our huge selection of productsand gifts. www.needlesart.com.TFNDonations NeededCat food for shelterUnopened/new bags of dry cat foodand canned Purina One tuna or salmonfor the Allen County SPCA. 4914 S.Hanna St., 260-744-0454.TFNEntertainment“creeare celebrations”Celebrate four creative adventures withhorses.
