Desert rose blooms in Tombstone Ivana Goldtooth

I

t might seem odd to some that in the midst of the Sonoran Desert, there is a rose tree, thriving and growing each year since before the founding of the state of Arizona. For local Tombstone residents, it’s just a normal, everyday thing to wake up to in their backyard. Since its planting in 1885, the Tombstone Rose Tree, otherwise known as the “Shady Lady” of the Rosa Banksiae family, is celebrating its 130th blossoming this weekend in all its white rose glory. The blossoming only happens once a year, according to Penny Germain, the coordinator of the Tombstone Rose Festival. The property has been in the family of Dorothy Devere and her husband Burt Devere for almost 100 years, located at the former boarding house/hotel that is now a museum. “It was awesome,” Germain said about her first time seeing the Rose Tree.

Ron Steiner, an employee at the Tombstone Rose Museum, said the origins of the tree species trace back to China, where it was then taken to England in World War II and then further up to Scotland. It came to Arizona via a Scottish woman named Mary Gee and her husband, who moved to Tombstone for the mining industry. “I thought it’s amazing that [the tree] is still hanging in there, still growing,” Steiner said. “When I started eight years ago they used to water it once a week, just flood it and do it in one night. Now it takes two nights — it’s expanded that much that they have to double the time it takes to water it.” Today, according to Germain, the rose tree covers about 9,000 square feet and provides a good amount of shade with the foliage that is trimmed every year. The festival for the tree’s blossoming will kick off under the tree at 6 p.m. on Friday. It will be followed by a pancake breakfast

Other events scheduled for the weekend are the Thunder Mountain Twirlers Square Dance, Mariachi Apache, the Rose Parade at 1 p.m. on Saturday, the Tombstone Animal Shelter Pet Parade as well as Vigilante skits. In other parts of the year, weddings and similar events take place under the tree in the courtyard.

Steiner said he hopes that people will be able to see the Rose Tree in all its glory. Meanwhile, Germain said that she hopes people will experience the “softer side of Tombstone” that is different from the usual things that one might expect of the town from its spooky namesake and stereotypes seen in movies. She added that there is more to Tombstone than its film persona, and it is filled with history,

Fox celebrates 85th birthday Victoria Pereira

F

or nearly a century, the Fox Tucson Theatre has been a staple of downtown life in Tucson, and this weekend the historic theater is celebrating its 85 years as a Tucson landmark with a gigantic doubleevent birthday party. Encompassing all the types of events that Fox Theatre is famous for, the celebration includes a live performance and two screenings of a classic film, all free to the public. The festivities begin on Saturday at 7:30 p.m. with local band Five Way Street and its British Invasion Tribute Show. The band will be performing hits from British bands of the 1960s, a period when groups like the Beatles, the Rolling Stones and The Who were hopping the pond and spreading like wildfire throughout the American music scene. Five Way Street has been said to be a band that connects well with its audience and the Tucson community, and the set list is full of songs that have crossed both generations and the Atlantic so everyone will have a chance to sing along to something they recognize. The celebration continues on Sunday with the timeless “The Wizard of Oz” showing at 2 p.m. and 6 p.m. The classic story of Dorothy Gale and her journey through the magical Land of Oz in search of a way home is one that has become a universal part of film culture. Film showings were the main purpose of the original theater, and it is optimized for this with its 1,200 audience seats and high-quality acoustics. Watching “The Wizard of Oz” may be enjoyable on your television at home, but the experience is completely different in the Fox Tucson Theatre atmosphere, according to Laurel Islas. “When you’re in [the Fox] it’s almost like going back in time,” said Islas, owner of ProVentures, the marketing agency of record for Fox Tucson Theatre. “You see the movie the way that the director had planned it in terms of color and sound and excitement.” There will even be birthday cake served after the screenings for the audience. The Fox team wanted to choose a film that was family-friendly that everyone could enjoy to involve as much of the community as possible in the celebration. The Fox has always been known for bringing the Tucson

community together. On opening day, April 11, 1930, downtown became a gigantic party in honor of the theater. According to the Fox Tucson Theatre’s historic page on its website, Congress Street was closed down and waxed for dancing, several bands performed, there was a live radio broadcast and free trolley rides were taking people all over downtown. For decades after it debuted that night, the Fox Tucson Theatre was known as the “Crown Jewel” of downtown and was the hub of entertainment in the slowly growing city. “When the Fox was built, Tucson had about 30,000 people and dirt

streets,” said Craig Sumberg, the executive director of the Fox Tucson Theatre Foundation. “Building something as elegant and beautiful as the [Fox Tucson Theatre] was a real statement to the locals that Tucson had arrived.” The theater brought business to the town and became a sort of anchor for the area at an economic standpoint; people were drawn to the Fox for film and entertainment and would stay in the area and become patrons of the various shops and restaurants populating downtown. “There’s always been a need for a vital city-center where people can come and enjoy community,”

Islas said. As Tucson began expanding in the ’60s and ’70s, more shopping centers and entertainment venues were being built farther away from downtown, which caused the businesses in the area to suffer, including the Fox. In 1974, the Fox Tucson Theatre closed due to the lack of funds, and the historic theatre sat vacant for 25 years. Finally, in 1999, a group of citizens came together and decided to resurrect the once iconic art theatre. The group, known as the nonprofit Fox Tucson Theatre Foundation, went through six years of intense restoration and finally

reopened the theater doors on New Year’s Eve 2006. Since then, the theater has once again returned to its former glory as an entertainment hotspot and has supported the revival of the downtown area with a variety of live performances and films always on the schedule. So grab a party hat, some friends and family, and sing “Happy Birthday” to downtown Tucson’s “Crown Jewel” with live music, classic film and a great community.

Arthouse cinema of horror Elise McClain

A

n evening of fright flicks, scary shorts, trivia, prizes, food and spirits, Scream-o-Rama serves seven blood-curdling films in the course of 12 horrifying hours at The Loft Cinema’s annual all-night horror movie marathon on Friday. “This is our annual, all-night slumber party,” said Jeff Yanc, program director at The Loft. “It’s one of the most fun things we do all year. If you like horror movies, then this is a dream come true — all horror, all night.” An annual Loft tradition since 2006, Scream-o-Rama provides an array of movies and activities spanning from dusk till dawn. This year, the event will kick off with the unrated U.K. cut of “Friday the 13th,” followed by “Suspiria,” “Tremors,” “The Fly,” “The Incredible Melting Man,” “Wolf Creek” and concluding the evening with the psychedelic

ghost story “Hausu.” “This is an outstanding lineup of film; every one of them is a must-see for horror fans,” said Bradley Schauer, assistant professor at the School of Theatre, Film and Television. Presenting everything from classic horror to contemporary and beyond, Scream-o-Rama provides a unique choice of horror films for fans of the genre. The Loft works to balance the appropriate amount of horror by blending scary, silly and funny subgenres. “‘Wolf Creek’ is very disturbing, but it’s arguably the best of the ‘torture porn’ cycle of the early 2000s,” Schauer said. “Director Greg Maclean has a great sense of the history of Australian film and uses the eeriness of his Outback locations to their fullest effect. ‘The Fly’ is David Cronenberg’s brilliant remake of the 1958 science fiction film, with the scientist’s genetic experiments and gradual mutation acting as a metaphor for AIDS. ‘Hausu’ is a deeply imaginative, completely

bonkers Japanese film from 1977 that has developed a sizable cult following. It’s so surreal and off-thewall that a piano eats a schoolgirl, and you hardly bat an eye.” Scream-o-Rama is annually held in the main theater of the Loft, pulling crowds of anywhere between 400 and 500 audience members during peak hours. Offering twisted trivia, liquid courage, prizes, souvenir barf bags and food throughout the evening, Scream-o-Rama is an event tailored to emulate the scream-fest slumber parties of youth. “It’s especially fun watching these movies with an audience,” Yanc said. “Obviously you can rent or stream all of these movies online, but watching them with a bunch of other people, screaming, laughing and drinking together makes for a lot of fun.” In an effort to add to the gritty ambiance often associated with the horror genre, The Loft will project five of the seven films on original 35 mm prints. “As a projectionist, I really enjoy

the fact that we show a lot of the horror films on original 35 mm film,” said Kyle Canfield, manager and projectionist at the Loft. “At Screamo-Rama, audience members get the opportunity to watch an aged version of the film, and it’s pretty cool that we get to play these movies with the history and natural dirtiness associated with 35 mm. It really adds to the feeling that you’re watching cinema, as opposed to just watching a movie.” For those able to last the entire evening, Scream-o-Rama offers an on-stage commemorative group photo for any and all “survivors.” In addition to the freaky food and drinks offered throughout the night, The Loft provides a breakfast buffet in the price of the ticket. “It’s definitely a worthwhile event to do at least once,” Canfield said. “I would suggest coming rested, and to take a nap before the event starts. The other great thing about it is audience members have the opportunity to leave a movie and go get some

food, spirits and take a break before returning to the theater. I like that Scream-o-Rama lends itself as an experience to the viewer, so they can cater the experience to themselves. It’s a lot of fun, and there’s always a nice variety of films to enjoy.” The frightening festivities are set to kick off at 7 p.m. and run till 7 a.m., though viewers are free to view any and all films showing — pillows and blankets are welcomed and even encouraged to those interested in surviving the overnight Scream-oRama. General admission is $15 for the evening or $13 to members. “It’s pretty cool, because when you stumble out into the daylight at the end of the event, it very much feels like you’re in a horror movie,” said Zach Breneman, deputy director at The Loft. “And for a minute, you look at the world entirely differently.”

Golfing for golden retrievers Victoria Teplitz

M

ake new friends and keep the old; some may be silver, but man’s best friend is gold. There’s no party like a golden retriever party.On Saturday, the Southern Arizona Golden Retriever Rescue will host it’s annual Out of the Ruff for Goldens Charity Golf Tournament at the El Conquistador Country Club in Oro Valley. Golfers are expected to have a shotgun start at 8:30 a.m. after registration at 7 a.m. SAGRR’s golden retrievers will be directly outside the pro-shop from 7-8:30 a.m. “The dogs will be there to wish the golfers golden luck as they head to the course,” said Joyce Sanford, the president of SAGRR and co-chair of the tournament. Two years ago, Sanford wrote the book “Goldenlocks and Her Three Homes,” featuring Goldenlocks, a golden retriever, in search for her forever home. “The book is a collaboration of SAGRR’s dogs,” Sanford said. SAGRR’s mission is to rescue and re-home golden retrievers. The organization has many other events, such as gift-wrapping with dogs at Christmas and the SAGRR pool party that helps with the funding for the dogs. “All the money made funds for the vet bills and training classes for the dogs,” Sanford said. The nonprofit organization began in 2011 when volunteers of the Arizona Golden Retriever Rescue noticed there was a golden retriever-loving population large

enough to establish the SAGRR, according to Sanford. She said the organization now has around 100 volunteers. Since then, SAGRR has made a difference in the golden retriever’s legacy, rehoming, fostering and rescuing the breed. “They definitely are a special breed,” said Mariah Driggs, a SAGRR volunteer. “My favorite thing about them is that they smile. Goldens really smile.” An estimated 17 teams are expected to compete in the tournament on Saturday. There will also be a silent auction,

trivia games and a raffle. First place will be awarded a set of glass coasters with SAGRR’s dog pictures embedded within them, according to Sanford. “It’s funny­— second place gets golden retriever head covers, but last place gets cat head covers,” Driggs said. SAGRR will also raffle off the new 2015 Ford Mustang in November, but the car is expected to be at the golf course this weekend. Raffle tickets are $25 each, and are now available to purchase. The generous donation of

the vehicle was made by Jim Click Automotive Team, and represented by the public relations agency, Russell Public Communications. The company has donated several of its cars to nonprofit organizations in Tucson, including SAGRR, according to Lanae Lovrien, Russell Public’s administrative assistant. “It’s great to help out such a great organization,” Lovrien said. A heart of gold may be as rare as a hole in one, but SAGRR is a champion in finding that happily ever after forever home for so

many of its dogs. The organization dedicates their time to ensure these loving creatures get the care and compassion they deserve. The tournament is expected to leave everyone having a golden time. To participate in Saturday’s golf tournament, the cost for one player is $95 and $360 for four players. Registration is available online at sagrr.org.

Caffe Luce: Jacquelyn Oesterblad

W

hen a hipster has an 8 a.m. class, she inevitably finds her way to Caffe Luce afterward for a little pick-me-up. Luce is a cafe in the old bourgeois Paris, rise-of-the-intelligentsia sense of the word — this week alone, while sitting at the big communal table on the north end of Luce, I’ve overheard two molecular and cellular biology professors negotiate the terms of a new research partnership, three gender and women’s studies graduate students discussing a speaker who recently came to campus and an Arabic Flagship student arguing with her language tutor about the international response in Syria. In the past, I’ve even seen professors convening evening seminar classes or instructors holding office hours on Luce’s patio. So Caffe Luce is, first and foremost, an academic space like all the other study spaces on campus, with the added benefit of really good coffee. And man, is the coffee good. Beyond their

specialties, like the ever-popular dirty chai and Azteca mocha, they make a mean brewed coffee. They have two different brews each day, one medium and one dark roast, with a discount for those who provide their own thermos or mug — for the 10 or 15 minutes between classes, the line runs to the door. The atmosphere is homier than your usual hipster cafe, which tends to emphasize austere modernism and clean lines. There’s an old couch in the corner and the constant smell of the coffee beans being roasted on-site. Political science junior Angad Chopra, who says he spend about six hours a week studying in Caffe Luce, summed up his perspective: “Good vibe, good atmosphere, good coffee.” While those things are all true, and there are posters on the walls advertising indie concerts and the baristas all have pretty sweet tats, at the end of the day, Luce is maybe a little too school for cool. It’s a little too welcoming, too come-asyou-are, too reflective of the campus on which it is situated. And let’s be real: the UA is not a hipster school, and so the coffee shops that serve it are little less hip, too. Even when you account for

the fact that the most basic Wildcats go to Starbucks, not Luce. But it’s still a great place for two hipsters to meet up and discuss the post-structuralist theory used in their dissertations. And like all successful dissertations, these ones are fueled by some really quality coffee.

Death Cab For Cutie returns at last Caren Badtke

D

eath Cab For Cutie’s newest and eighth studio album, Kintsugi, has its moments of greatness, but remains in the doorstep more often than not. The follow up to 2011’s Codes And Keys marks a couple of changes. It’s the first record since frontman Ben Gibbard divorced Zooey Deschanel, the wellloved actress that seemed such a good fit for him. However, Gibbard’s “500 Days of Summer” have been over for a while, since the singer has reportedly given his heart to someone else. Naturally, Gibbard’s authenticity for teenage excitement visibly suffered from the discovery of the gloomy disappointment he encountered in adulthood. “I still see you through the eyes of a child,” Gibbard sings in “You’ve Haunted Me All My Life,” a song playing with these motifs: “You’re the mistress that I can’t make my wife.” Kintsugi also marks the first album in Death Cab’s 17-year, eight-album career

that wasn’t produced by Gibbard’s partnerin-crime and band mate Chris Walla. Weird dynamics or sad understanding — whichever sentiments accompanied Walla’s statement that he would leave the band but finish Kintsugi first — are disguised behind a wall of professional producing by the first producer from outside the band’s confines, Rich Costey, a Hollywood guy who has worked with Muse and Glasvegas before. The album’s name toys with both these changes: Kintsugi derives from Japanese art, and is the act of putting broken pieces back together and building up something new and precious. However, a reinvention is not visible in Death Cab’s eighth album. In fact, Kintsugi gives more than enough “Death Cab-ness” to make fans happy. The album’s breakup theme cannot be misunderstood and feels just personal enough for the listener to want to give Gibbard a hug. It does not play out the kitsch too much, but it does not leave it unmentioned either. The dynamic between Walla and Gibbard, most visible during the early stages of the band, seems lost for a while and finds its climax in this album.

EVENTS

Where in the beginning, the fragility of Gibbard’s lyrics played right into the fragile production by Walla, the man that has bared his heart for the better part of his career is putting all his effort into catching the general sentiment, to make the general personal. Death Cab toes this line with clumsy grace. That said, the album has its great moments. Pretty melodies openly admit their closeness to older Death Cab songs and provide steadiness between the album’s changing loud-quiet-bigsmall dynamics. “Everything’s a Ceiling” delivers unflattering 80s-synths, “El Dorado,” however, brings a moment of perfect Postal-Service-melancholia to the end of the album. With “The Ghosts Of Beverly Drive,” the band delivers a beautiful pop anthem in all its sing-andclap perfection. Together with “No Room In Frame” and “Black Sun,” the album’s lead single, it opens the album on a strong tone. Kintsugi is a much needed intermediate for Death Cab. Four years after its last record, Death Cab dips its feet into the novelty of losing a constant: Chris Walla. For the next album, Death Cab for

THE REEL DEAL BY ALEX GUYTON

‘It Follows’: Sexually transmitted death

T

he only protection from this deadly sexually transmitted affliction is to have more sex. Minus some minor flaws in story, the fresh concept of “It Follows” creates a stifling level of tension that does not relent. Jay (Maika Monroe) is a teenage girl, and she’s a little anxious about going further with her new beau. However, in the back of a car one night, the two of them have consensual sex. Then, Hugh (Jake Weary) suffocates Jay with a rag soaked in chloroform, and she wakes up strapped to a wheelchair. Hugh begins spouting what sounds like nonsense if not for the authentic terror in his voice. He informs Jay that he has passed onto her a deadly curse. “It” will follow her around, slowly, but surely. No matter where she’s at, it is always moving toward her. It can take the form of friend, family or stranger, and the only way to get rid of it is to pass it along (read: have more sex). Even if she rids herself of it, if the person she passed it to doesn’t pass it on before they’re killed, the curse goes back down the line. What do all of these things result in? Complete and total paranoia for both Jay and the audience. “It” is easy enough to spot, since the person it’s manifested itself as usually moves at a lumbering pace — but it can show up anywhere, and it will. There’s no safe haven, no reprieve in tension. It doesn’t help that Jay is in no rush to pass it along to the next poor soul, either. Director David Robert Mitchell introduces this evil and paranoia into a world well defined, yet impossible to place. The film was shot in Detroit, yet the atmosphere is palpably ambiguous, removed from a specific time and place. The sleepy suburb that Jay and her friends live in is perpetually overcast. This seclusion away from city life, accompanied by the old-school cars that everyone drives, creates the sense of a place

still living in the past. Adding to this is the wonderful, synthy soundtrack from artist Disasterpeace, which, from the airy, serene “Jay” to the terrifying, hard-hitting “Heels,” sounds exactly like a video game from the late 1990s, Nintendo 64/ PlayStation era. However, there are some modern-day anachronisms. Characters have cell phones, and one girl even has a futuristic folding, double-screened e-reader shaped like a seashell. It all feels like a dream that quickly turns into a nightmare. These locales are primarily filmed with wide-angle lenses, opening up the landscapes, and opening Jay up to vulnerability. “It” can come from all angles, and Mitchell and cinematographer Mike Gioulakis spatially place our protagonist right in the middle of them all. Is that figure in the background slowly making its way toward her just a regular person, or something more sinister? There are some logic-based questions regarding the plot that are not answered. “It” sometimes takes the form of people very close to Jay, and sometimes it’s a random stranger. It never really raises any questions until, at the film’s climax, “It” takes the form of Jay’s absent father. This raises questions that should be addressed. The ending is also rather unsatisfying. The only change from Jay and her now-boyfriend Paul (Keir Gilchrist), who originally started off as a close friend, is that they now accept their plight and will take the future in stride. It underwhelms, given the overwhelming terror that has just previously occurred. Despite this, “It Follows” is enjoyable and tense.

Grade: B+

Kendrick Lamar soars with newest album

I

Alex Furrier

t’s easy to assume everyone else has it together, to feel alone in a world where all you are capable of is “not good enough.” But the truth is, no one has a clue what they’re doing in life, and the only way to celebrate that is by being yourself. If you want to hear these sentiments, but in a more appealing manner, listen to Kendrick Lamar’s newest album To Pimp a Butterfly. To Pimp a Butterfly proves that praise only goes so far before the Law of Diminishing Returns kicks in. Already the highestscoring hip-hop album on Metacritic, To Pimp a Butterfly has people proclaiming it’s not only the album of the year, but perhaps the rap album of the decade. Let’s just say if some advanced civilization in the future recovers the remnants of our society, long since dead and gone, I sincerely hope To Pimp a Butterfly is one of the first albums they listen to. Once upon a time, say a month or so ago, I believed there was no way Kendrick Lamar could exceed his last album Good Kid, M.A.A.D. City. After such a poignant story of growing up in the streets of Compton, what story could Kendrick Lamar have to tell? The answer is To Pimp a Butterfly. To Pimp a Butterfly utilizes the age-old metaphor of the caterpillar transforming into the butterfly. While Good Kid, M.A.A.D. City told a linear story, To Pimp a Butterfly c o n n e c t s songs and stories in an almost threedimensional way. Lamar begins to read a poem at the end of each track, with each sequential line introducing the next song. The result is a poem that summarizes Lamar’s journey of coming to grips with his newfound fame and its consequences. The album ends with “Mortal Man,” a 12-minute track in which Lamar converses with pre-recorded Tupac Shakur about his poem and how to best use his influence as Tupac’s heir to the throne of hip-hop. Lamar focuses on the dissonance between self-love and self-hatred, and the long-standing idea of “double consciousness” put forth by W.E.B. Du Bois in “The Souls of Black Folk.” Despite being the new “King” of rap, as seen in the track “King Kunta,” Lamar is still held back. “King Kunta” is named after 18th-century slave Kunta Kinte, who attempted to escape until his right foot was cut off. Whether it

TOP DAWG ENTERTAINMENT

is from the rap culture and production companies, or the powers that be such as the government, there is always something trying to take Lamar’s legs from beneath him. The duality and combating nature at the heart of “King Kunta” permeates every song on the album. This is a combat album: the battle of Kendrick Lamar vs. Kendrick Lamar. This most obviously comes out in “u” and “i”. “U” proves to be Lamar’s nadir, the lowest point where his self-hatred boils over as he contemplates suicide in a hotel room. Meanwhile, “i” is the mountaintop, the climax of the album’s message for positive selflove. It’s fascinating that “i” was the first single off the album, dropped back in 2014. Lamar faced criticism for “i,” with many questioning if the rapper from Good Kid, M.A.A.D. City was gone and replaced with easily digestible poprap songs that stay as far away as possible from hard truths. Lamar most likely knew he would face some backlash of releasing “i” without the context of the album, but he was just living out the message of the song: Don’t let anyone else define, label or box you in. There is only one “i,” only one me and only one you. So sing it out loud and don’t pay any mind to the rest. We might as well start singing along, because To Pimp A Butterfly is going to be played for years to come.

“Lamar focuses on the dissonance between self-love and selfhatred.”

UA reggae-alt band rocks the West Coast B B

“W

e were at the point in our lives when we were trying to figure out what we should do, and we thought, ‘Why not do this? Why not try to make this work?’” said Esteban Obregon, a general studies junior, when remembering why he and his three best friends started their reggae-alternative band, Something Like Seduction. “… It’s all of our passions: writing music, playing music, making music together. Freshman year, we decided we have one life, so why not roll the dice? We can do it.” Obregon is the drummer and manager of the four-piece band, accompanied by Connor Shea on lead vocals, Tyler Cunningham with bass and Nik Gelo with lead guitar. Obregon, Shea and Gelo started the band in their junior year of high school at Brophy College Preparatory in Phoenix. Cunningham quickly joined the mix after Nikhar Abbas’ departure during their freshman year at the UA. “We found Tyler [in] August of freshman year,” Obregon said. “He stumbled into our dorm one day when we were jamming, and he started jamming with us. The rest is history.” Obregon said he, Cunningham, and Shea plan to make the band a real career. Over their past three years at the UA, the band has played countless live gigs at a myriad of venues including The Rialto Theatre, Hotel Congress, The Rock and The Hut. They even played a festival in Tempe last year, opening for popular reggae-inspired bands such as Pepper, Atmosphere, Iration, Tribal Seeds, Dirty Heads and the FloBots. Obregon describes this as “one of the band’s proudest moments.” The band embarked

on its first tour of the West Coast this past January. On May 18, only four days after the end of finals, the band will leave sunny Tucson for Huntington Beach, Calif., where its second tour of the California coast will begin. Over the span of 22 days, the band will play 15 shows. Obregon said the hardest part about touring, coincidentally, is booking the gigs themselves. “These days, [venue owners] just won’t respond, so I was pretty proud of myself for [booking 15 shows],” Obregon said. “People ask, ‘Who did this for you guys?’ and I’m just like, I did. And they’re like, ‘Oh, shit!’ I’ve learned and getting us out to California was really hard, so I’m proud of that.” The band is touring California because Obregon said he feels the chance to succeed here in Tucson is less promising. “A lot of the students here don’t give a fuck about live music,” Obregon said. “They would rather go to a club and listen to some Zed. Here on [Fourth Avenue] there’s just a ton of clubs, but in California, they have live bands at bars for entertainment, so a lot of the venues just have a built-in crowd that people go to drink at. They just bring out so many people [that could hear our music].” Obregon said each member of Something Like Seduction has their own shtick. He said he and Cunningham are more of the managers of the group, handling gig planning, touring and finances; they are “first and second in command,” maintaining the group’s direction. However, Cunningham also writes music, possessing the ability to “flesh out entire songs.” Shea and Gelo are the more musically creative members of the group. “[Shea] is super talented; he writes melodies without writing words to them,”

Obregon said. “[Gelo] has a punk style that’s pretty different in our music, but it adds a really cool element.” However, Gelo will not return next year or join the band’s summer tour due to a job opportunity with Apple. “It’s gonna be weird not having him, but life goes on,” Obregon said. “I’m sad, but with one door that closes, another opens.” Obregon said the best part of being in the band is playing live shows. “Recently, especially after the EP came out, you hear people sing the words back to you,” Obregon said. “That’s pretty dope, hearing people sing your songs. The energy you can feel from people, them dancing and shit ; it sounds lame, but the vibes are

super crazy. You’re just like, ‘Damn, this is nuts.’” In five years, Obregon said he hopes to see the band producing out of its own home studio, profitably touring and, most importantly, making music. Before departing for the summer tour, the band will play one last show with Gelo at The Rock on April 25. Tickets will be $5 each. Something Like Seduction’s second fulllength album will also be available this summer on Spotify, iTunes and its website for free.

THE S IGHTS AND SOUNDS OF SPRING FLING From plummets down the Mega Drop to calming views from the Ferris Wheel, Spring Fling has thrills for all V P

T

here are three big aspects to Spring Fling: the food, the music and, of course, the rides. Arizona has a general lack of amusement parks, especially when compared to states like California, Florida or even New Jersey. Blame it on the heat, but there simply aren’t many places close to Tucson where one can get spun around like a top on the Tilt-a-Whirl or experience freefall from the Mega Drop, which is part of why Spring Fling is so special. From the Haunted Mansion to the Zipper, Spring Fling has all the classic amusement park rides, catering to every age and thrill-seeking level. For those looking for something traditional and relaxing (who aren’t afraid of heights), the Ferris Wheel is the perfect choice. For thrill-seekers with a preference for spinning in circles, the Cyclone or Zero Gravity will get your

adrenaline pumping. And for the younger or less-adventurous crowds, Farm Tractors or Quads are great attractions. All of the rides can be paid for with tickets. On Friday and Sunday guests can purchase a wristband that will give them unlimited access to all the rides for that night. “Our rides change slightly every year, but the favorites always make their return,” said Amanda Lester, the Spring Fling executive director. Lester, a senior studying psychology and English, said she has been involved with Spring Fling since her freshman year, beginning as a volunteer for one of the club booths at the festival. The various food and game booths set up by participating clubs across campus are also a big part of the attractions at Spring Fling. During the fall of each year, dozens of clubs apply to be a part of Spring Fling, and this year around 40 clubs were chosen out of the more than 70 that applied. Each club runs its own booth and receives all the profits from its setup to contribute to any future

endeavors. This year, a number of sororities, fraternities, majorspecific groups and volunteer organizations are among the list of UA clubs that will have booths set up at Spring Fling. For families with some younger guests in tow, the Kid’s Korner has always been the place to be for enjoyment for all ages. “We’re trying to increase our partnership with Tucson Children’s Museum as well as Flandrau Science Center and Planetarium,” said Chase Cromwell, a veterinary science senior. Cromwell is this year’s program director for Spring Fling and is in charge of planning and coordinating the events and Kid’s Korner festivities. The Kid’s Korner will feature appearances from Wilbur and Wilma Wildcat on Saturday and Sunday afternoon, and Curious George on Sunday, as well. There will also be activities and demonstrations set up by the partner organizations involved, Cromwell said. The Solar Cats, a club on campus that is dedicated to the promotion and implementation of sustainable solar energy, will have demonstrations with solarpowered gadgets and toys for the children at Kid’s Korner. A variety of games, activities and contests tailored to children will also be available throughout the weekend. With an incredible assortment of rides, games and activities, Spring Fling is packed with attractions for every age and is sure to provide everyone with a fun-filled weekend and great memories with friends and family. — Follow Victoria Pereira @vguardie917

he performance aspect of Spring Fling promises to provide just as much of an adrenaline rush as some of the crazier rides like Mega Drop or Cyclone. Many different UA clubs will grace the stage this weekend to showcase the extensive talents of students on campus. To add to the excitement surrounding the event, attendees will get a special opportunity to jam out and dance along with Los Angeles-based, indie-pop band Smallpools during its Spring Fling concert Saturday. Among the UA clubs expected to perform is Amplified, a co-ed a cappella group founded at the UA in 2012. With their vocal chords as their musical instrument of choice, 14 members of the club will help create the group’s original sound as they embellish different pop songs with their own unique voices. “It’s a lot of fun,” said Kous Kondapalli, a neuroscience junior and president of Amplified. “We’re a close-knit group, and we just love getting together [to] sing. … For almost all of us, it’s kind of like a break from our regular school work, so we all … [look] forward to rehearsals.” Undoubtedly for many people, the film “Pitch Perfect” comes to mind upon hearing the term “a cappella.” Kondapalli said that Amplified competed in the International Championship of Collegiate A Cappella, the same competition featured in the film. In addition to featuring some of UA’s finest talents, Spring Fling will also present the band Smallpools. The up-and-coming band will be performing their latest album called

“Lovetap,” a compilation of songs that take imaginative risks. Michael Kamerman, the guitarist, said that the band started playing together in the summer of 2012 and released its first song about a year later. “Sean [Scanlon, the lead singer,] and I were both from the East Coast,” Kamerman said. “We moved up to California about 3 1/2 [years] ago to pursue something a little different than what we were doing back in New Jersey and New York. … While we were here, random coincidences led us to our bass player Joe [Intile] who introduced us to our drummer Beau [Kuther]. We just kind of started jamming and eventually, we had a couple songs. The idea was just to play a couple shows after work and whatnot, just to give us something creative on the side. And luckily, some people liked the songs, and we got to do it a little more — part-time.” Intile and Kuther’s low-key background in Oregon blended with Kamerman and Scanlon’s outspoken East Coast background when the two sets of friends joined musical forces. “It’s definitely an interesting dynamic,” Kamerman said. “Everyone brings a different opinion and a different mindset to the table and to the room.” The collaborative band works together to create a product that unifies their individual talents and consequently enhances the impact it has on the audience. “Everyone brings something different to the table which I think is really important and exciting for us,” Kamerman said. “Everyone in the band compliments each other and does something that the other person can’t do, so we all depend on each other to put our own sound … on each song.”

The band provided a means of artistic release for its members who had somewhat mundane day jobs when they first started out. “It was kind of interesting just to fill our time after work,” Kamerman said. “I was serving tables. Sean was valeting cars. It was really just a creative outlet that … [made] us forget about the crappy day we had.” Kamerman said the band’s sound is influenced by music that they heard as children. He added that much of his inspiration comes from artists like Billy Joel, Bruce Springsteen and Paul Simon, as well as bands that they have toured with like Grouplove, Walk the Moon and Magic Man. Kamerman’s perspective on the band’s success reveals his humility and genuine passion for making music. He made it clear that it has always been and will always be about the creativity surrounding the art and never about the fame. “It’s been exciting just to see people react to the songs the way they have,” Kamerman said. “It kind of caught us off guard. It wasn’t what we expected in a good way. … You have to stay level-headed and keep thinking about what the next move is and just keep finding other music that excites you.” Kamerman said the UA is pretty much Smallpool’s tour kickoff. “We can’t wait,” Kamerman said. “We’ll be playing a newer set that we’ve never done before. We’ve played in Tucson and Phoenix multiple times, and Tucson [has] always been great to us. [I] can’t think of a better place to try the new material out.”

hile most UA students enjoy watching the Wildcat basketball and football players demolish their opponents comfortably from the ZonaZoo section, biomedical engineering junior Andrew Maggio, cheers them on in a different position: on the field itself. As a sophomore here at the university, Maggio said he encountered a unique opportunity — to become a male cheerleader. “The experiences I’ve had in this last year alone, from the bowl games … to the Pac-12 Championship in Las Vegas, to the Sweet Sixteen and Elite Eight games, are amazing,” Maggio said. “I never thought I would be on the court or a part of the game experience.” Maggio loved being a member of the ZonaZoo his freshman year, but he said cheering for the Wildcats out on the field definitely takes the cake. “I enjoyed being a fan, but it’s a whole different experience seeing the experience right in front of your eyes,” Maggio said. “It’s very breathtaking.” He said his first game experience made him appreciate his openness to give the stereotypically female sport a try. “One of my most memorable [cheer] experiences was being able to run the flag out,” Maggio said. “Running out there, with the fireworks exploding — I’m on the field. Knowing that I would be doing this for the rest of the year really hit me.” He said he craves the adrenaline rush that cheer brings him, “[loving] every minute of it.” Though incredibly involved in UA’s cheerleading scene now, Maggio said he was not always so convinced that cheerleading was the sport for him. “As a freshman, … I remember [thinking] it was kind of goofy, guy cheerleaders and all,” he said. Maggio, not anticipating he would ever be a cheerleader, said he became involved in a somewhat random way. “I ended up dating one of [the cheerleaders], and she asked me to come check it out,” Maggio said. “I was here for [resident assistant] training, so I thought ‘why not give it a shot?” He added that, aside from the sport fitting his schedule, his friend, Mitch Wagner, who was Wilbur his sophomore year, also convinced him to join after telling Maggio about the athletic opportunities cheerleading offered. Maggio said he does not regret giving the presumably female sport a chance. He said it provides him with many more benefits than he ever thought it could. “You really have to work at it,” he said. “[Cheerleading] is definitely not easy. Once I learned the technique, though, everything got a lot easier.” Cheerleading goes beyond entertaining

the thousands of Wildcat spectators at every football, basketball and volleyball game, according to Maggio. “We do a lot of volunteer events around Tucson,” he said. “I teach cheer clinics for younger kids and high schoolers. … I never thought I would teach cheer clinics. I didn’t expect there would be people who look up to us; … being around that group humbled me.” After becoming a more skilled cheerleader, he said his new goal is to “give back” to his community through cheer. He said he wants to occasionally return to his high school and help out its cheer team. Of course, as a male cheerleader, stereotypes of the sport always persist. Maggio said that although he finds college to be a much more accepting environment of those who break stereotypes, especially those of gender in sports, a couple stereotypes still persist. “The the number one stereotype that we get nagged on most is, ’Are there a lot of gay guys on your team?’” he said. He said he thinks the stereotype is unimportant because, regardless of his teammates’ sexual orientations, he has made great friendships. “None of us came to college to cheer,” Maggio said regarding his male teammates. “We just came to college and ended up finding cheer through opportunities through people. I’m proud that I was able to step forward and actually attempt it. … My college experience is unique because of it.”

Football holds annual spring game BY James kelley The Daily Wildcat

Arizona football fans will get their first chance to catch a glimpse of the defending Pac-12 South champions with the annual spring football game on Friday. The Spring Game will be at 6 p.m. at Arizona Stadium and will be broadcast on the Pac-12 Networks. “I think it’ll be fun; I think the players will enjoy it,” Arizona coach Rich Rodriguez said. “It may remind them of high school a little bit. It’ll be nice for the fans; obviously the weather will be nice. I’m looking forward to it.” Receiver Nate Phillips said having the Spring Game at night might make things a little different. “It kinda feels more like a game when you’re there under those lights,” Phillips said. Quarterback Jerrard Randall said playing on a Friday night reminds him of playing back in high school in Florida. “I like playing under the lights; it kind of feels like I’m back and home — I come alive in the lights,” Randall said. “I wouldn’t really mind if it was

day time. Either way, I want to play football, but in the lights, it’s a lot better.” Randall said he is hoping for a big crowd. “I want to show the fans that I got something here,” Randall said. Parking is free in all surface lots after 3 p.m. The UA suggests fans enter campus from south of Sixth Street. Gates will open at 4 p.m. and fans

will enter through Gates 1 and 2. The only outside food or drink that fans can bring inside the stadium is bottled water. The A-Club Celebrity Flag Football Game takes place at 4:45 p.m. The alumni game will feature former Wildcats Jake Fischer, Jason Johnson, Callista Balko and Syndric Steptoe. John Fina (football 1991) and Burney Starks (football 1973) will serve as coaches.

Rodriguez said hopes to avoid injuries, but likes the chance for young players to play in front of their fans. “We have a lot of young guys that maybe haven’t been in a big crowd situation since high school,” Rodriguez said. “Just to see them compete and execute a little bit, I think they’ll play hard and I want them to enjoy it. They’ve had a good spring and worked hard but I want

them to enjoy this one.” Phillips said he thinks the Wildcats will be excited for the Spring Game, as they want their side, offense or defense, to win. “You can see at the end of practice — and it’s situations, and it’s a close game according to our score — guys want to win,” Phillips said. “When we go out and it’s tackle and it’s live, guys will be flying around and excited.” Rodriguez said he was happy with what the Wildcats accomplished in the spring. “The enthusiasm has been pretty good, and I think they’ll have fun [tonight],” Rodriguez said. “We won’t be out there too long, maybe 80 or 90 plays, but it’s been pretty good.” Arizona will have some fun with the Spring Game. “I’m looking forward to it,” Rodriguez said. “I may even venture into the stands late just so I can have people call bad plays. And I can boo them and criticize them and maybe send them emails and stuff like that.”

Baseball hits road for matchup with ASU BY Nicole cousins

The Daily Wildcat

It’s been a few years since Arizona baseball outfielder Justin Behnke played at Phoenix Municipal Stadium. The Mesa, Ariz., native and Dobson High School graduate played there for high school playoff games. Now he gets to go back this weekend as a collegiate athlete to face instate rival ASU, which moved back to Phoenix Municipal Stadium for the first time since 1974. “It’s definitely a stadium atmosphere, and this weekend, I bet it’s going to be pretty packed,” Behnke said. He said the move doesn’t affect the series, though, even with it being ASU. Behnke said Arizona is still going about it like any other series. But Arizona has some major lineup changes that make this series different. Coach Andy Lopez said on Wednesday that Xavier Borde and Bobby Dalbec will replace Robby Medel and Tyger Talley on the mound for the last two games of the series.

Borde, a redshirt junior, has never started for Arizona during Pac-12 Conference play and had never started a game before this year. He has four starts this season in nine appearances, with a 1.69 ERA. “Xavier has good stuff,” Lopez said. “If there’s one thing he lacks, it’s the experience.” Dalbec, Arizona’s typical starting third baseman and closer, will make his first start as a pitcher on Monday night. Talley, Arizona’s consistent Sunday starter this season, will switch roles with Dalbec and close for the team. “The reality of it right now is that Tyger Talley isn’t effective from about 35 pitches on,” Lopez said. “As much as he wants to be, he’s not.” The major pitching changes came after Arizona was swept last weekend by No. 9 USC. Both Medel and Talley gave up seven-run innings, resulting in a 13-6 loss on Friday and a 10-9 loss Saturday. Lopez said the pitching situation that Arizona is facing isn’t as bad as it could be. “This isn’t a monster,” Lopez said. Which could be due, in large part, to Arizona’s premiere hitting game. The Wildcats hold the

highest batting average in the nation, and Scott Kingery leads all batters in the same category. Behnke and shortstop Kevin Newman round out the top three hitters for Arizona. “Against USC, we could hit, but we didn’t execute as well as we could have, and it potentially cost us a couple wins,” Newman said. “We have to get it in our minds that we always have to execute.” ASU is coming off a series victory over Utah, winning two of three games, but lost 7-6 at UNLV

on Wednesday. Newman said the biggest thing Arizona will have to face is the Sun Devils’ tough pitching staff. Arizona leads the all-time rivalry series 226193-1, but lost three of five games last season. The first game of the late weekend series starts Saturday, with the first pitch at 7:30 p.m. — Follow Nicole Cousins @cousinnicole

UA softball hosts Washington BY Ezra amacher The Daily Wildcat

Arizona softball hosts what should be a high-scoring series this weekend when the UA and Washington, two of the country’s top offensive teams, meet at Hillenbrand Stadium. The Wildcats, who sit tied for second in the Pac-12 Conference with a 6-3 league record, enter the weekend on a hot streak after putting up 22 runs against Oregon State on Saturday. The UA outscored the Beavers 38-8 in that series. Arizona coach Mike Candrea expects the Huskies to be more competitive. “Every weekend is a test for us,” Candrea said. “Washington is a good team. They’re similar to us in that they swing the bats quite well.” The No. 16 Wildcats and No. 18 Huskies rank near the top of many offensive statistical categories, making this a series that should light up the scoreboard. Arizona ranks third in the country with a .364 batting average, while Washington is third nationally in scoring with 8.26 runs per game. With so much emphasis placed on offense, whichever team records the key outs on the mound will likely

come out victorious. For Arizona, that means starters Michelle Floyd and Trish Parks need to keep things under control when the Huskies put runners on base. The two pitchers have faced mixed results this season when it comes to limiting high-scoring opponents. “There will be a lot of runs put on the board, so I think pitching is going to be the key,” Candrea said. “If Michelle and Trish can step up, I think that’s going to be the difference maker of the game.” Floyd and Parks both handled Oregon State’s lineup without much trouble, but getting through Washington’s offense poses more of a challenge. Like Arizona, the Huskies are red hot at the plate. Washington is coming off a dominating sweep over Stanford in which it scored double-digit runs in all three games. Infielder Courtney Gano leads the way for the Huskies with 17 home runs, which ranks most in the Pac-12 and third in the nation. Washington also has a pair of batters hitting .400 or better, including Ali Aguilar, whose .439 average is among the best in the conference.

Arizona has plenty of offensive capability itself. Every Arizona position player is batting over .300, a claim that few other programs in the country can make. Shortstop Kellie Fox leads the way with a .415 average. “I think our lineup has gained a lot more maturity, and we’ve come together to build off each other,” Arizona catcher Chelsea Goodacre said. Goodacre is the nation’s leader in RBIs, with 62, while her 16 home runs are tied for the team lead with Katiyana Mauga. The Wildcats’ offense will need to maintain its slugging ways for Arizona to maintain pace with Washington. “We don’t know much about their pitching staff, but basically all we’re going to do is go out there and hit the ball as hard as we can,” Goodacre said. Opening pitch on Friday is slated for 6 p.m., and action continues through Saturday and Sunday. Both weekend games will be televised on the Pac-12 Networks. Sally Lugo/The Daily Wildcat

Sand volleyball heads to Tempe BY JORDYN OWEN The Daily Wildcat

Arizona sand volleyball heads up north this weekend to compete in the ASU Sand Volleyball Challenge, a two-day tournament that will feature the Wildcats, Sun Devils, California State University, Bakersfield Roadrunners and the New Mexico Lobos. Play starts on Friday in Tempe and continues on Saturday. The Wildcats’ first match will be against ASU tonight at 6. This is the first time the rivals will face each other this season. Arizona is currently 13-1, while the Sun Devils are just 4-8. The Wildcats are looking for redemption after a hard-fought loss against the Sun Devils last season. “Certainly you want to win and you want to beat your neighbors to the north, and that’s what we’re looking to do,” Arizona coach Steve Walker said. “I think last year that we got into such a hole in that duel, when we played up there, that it was hard to kind of dig ourselves out. Hopefully, we’ll get off to a little bit better start this year and we can come out on top.” The UA/ASU rivalry atmosphere can be a bit

shocking for newcomers to the state, but Arizona’s Kaitlyn Leary is ready to face the Sun Devils and experience the rivalry firsthand. “This is my first year, so it will be fun to see that atmosphere with big rivals,” Leary said. “That will be a fun game, and I’m excited to see what that’s like.” The Wildcats will face off against Bakersfield (8-7) at 10 a.m. on Saturday before ending the day at 3 p.m. against New Mexico, which is 1-8 this season after last weekend’s defeat by Arizona. Arizona’s practice this week has been dedicated to working on the Wildcats’ skill set. “We’ve been working on our overall skills and implementing those in game situations, so we’ve been doing a lot of game situation drills,” Leary said. The Wildcats have held on to the No. 10 spot in the AVCA Sand Poll for the past five weeks, and are the only team in this weekend’s challenge to be ranked in the top 10 this season. The ASU Sand Volleyball Challenge will be held at the PERA Club in Tempe. COURTNEY TALAK/THE DAILY WILDCAT

The Daily Wildcat

Arizona track and field hosts the Jim Click Shootout at the Roy P. Drachman Stadium this weekend and will bring some of the best athletes in the country to Tucson. The meet will consist of the first multi events of the season on Thursday and Friday before the athletes compete in individual events on Saturday. Wildcat Harrison Ivie has been preparing for seven months to finally compete in a multi event. He will be competing in the decathlon, a multi event that consists of the 100-meter dash, long jump, high jump, shot put, the 400-meter race, the 110-meter hurdles, discus throw, pole vault, javelin and the 1,500-meter race. Ivie will go into the decathlon well rested after having a light training week, something he thinks will work to his advantage. Ivie had a tough training week before the Arizona State Invitational and said he still thought he competed well, but that he feels a lighter training week will allow him to be more prepared for the meet. UA will be competing against USC, LSU, Purdue and Illinois in the individual events on Saturday. Nnenya Hailey will be competing in the 400-meter hurdles and the 4x400 meter relay, and said she is excited to compete against such competitive schools. Hailey’s personal best was 56.9 seconds last season, a number she hopes to improve upon this weekend. She said she’s had a lot of practice going into hurdles and feels very confident she can get the time she is striving for. “I want to open up faster than I finished last season,” Hailey said. Ivie and Hailey both look forward to competing on their home track. Hailey said she feels the home crowd gives her more motivation to run better, and Ivie said he enjoys the atmosphere and support from the

fans, especially with it being the first multi event of the season. Arizona coach Fred Harvey said he is particularly looking forward to the women’s 400-meter hurdle race on Saturday, an event in which Hailey will compete. “The 400 hurdles race this weekend will be the fastest collegiate race in the entire country until you get to the finals of the NCAA Championship,” Harvey said. “It is such a special event because it does bring together some of the top athletes in the country.” Harvey believes the Jim Click Shootout will feature some of the strongest performances the country has seen this year as the Wildcats make their way into the second half of the season. “It’s going to be an unbelievable meet,” Harvey said in an Arizona Athletics video. “When you have LSU, USC, ourselves, Purdue and Illinois all [getting] together for a competition, you’re going to see a lot of great things across the board.”
