318 THINGS TO DO
THIS WEEK PAGE 56
It shouldn’t surprise anyone who’s visited 16-Bit Bar + Arcade that the Fourth St. establishment won this year’s Best New Bar and Best Bar Games categories in Alive’s reader poll. It’s nearly impossible for anyone who’s been there to walk out without a smile on his or her face. Which is why it won — handily — both categories. The rest of the Best of Columbus races weren’t nearly as much of a landslide. In fact, this year’s contest saw numerous close-calls, including our tightest finish ever. Two votes separated The Angry Baker and Explorers Club in the Best Vegetarian Restaurant category. Democracy! Pictured on the cover is “Moon Patrol,” the 1982 side-scrolling shooter available to play at 16-Bit. Photo by Meghan Ralston / Illustration by Alyse Kordenbrock

The comic book Ghost Rider, definitely not the one from the terrible Nic Cage movie. Although not all the blame goes to Cage, as the movie was directed by the same guy who did “Daredevil.”

7. GHOST PEPPER
Also known as Bhot Jolokia, this 1 million-plus Scoville hottie was once the hottest in the world until it was surpassed by the Trinidad Moruga Scorpion (mmm, scorpion pepper). The current Guinness record-holder is the Carolina Pepper.
6. SLIMER
He may have only had a bit part in the original “Ghostbusters” classic, but he
If you strike him down, he shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine. Also, glowy.
4. SPACE GHOST
The Hanna-Barbera superhero found a career revival as a cartoon talk-show host. His interviews with Thom Yorke and Bjork are particularly amazing.
3. GHOSTFACE KILLAH
The most consistent of Wu-Tang’s solo artists (see Supreme Clientele, Fishscale) was a brilliant lyricist, but maybe an even better dresser — dude loved his Wallys (Clarks Wallabees) and often dyed them crazy colors.
2. PATRICK SWAYZE
No, not his pottery-loving character from “Ghost.” Swayze may have passed, but the spirit of Dalton from “Road House” lives on in us all.
1. BEETLEJUICE
Qualifications, you say? He attended Juilliard, graduated from Harvard business school, travels extensively, lived through the Black Plague and has seen “‘THE EXORCIST’ ABOUT 167 TIMES, AND IT KEEPS GETTING FUNNIER EVERY SINGLE TIME ...”

SID BLAIR BUTTCRACK SELFIE SENSATION BY ABERNATHY MILLER // @Abernathy_Alive PHOTO BY MEGHAN RALSTON

eing an ass can land you on time.com, if you’re an ass that happens to be hanging out of pants and Columbus native Sid Blair is around. The rapper/gamer’s “artfully positioned” selfies from a Virginia “Magic The Gathering” convention went viral, setting off a string of events that would leave Blair and his cohorts completely dumbfounded. Whatever happens, Blair just wants to rap with Action Bronson.
ColumbusAlive.com | Thursday, March 27, 2014
I have a weird sense of humor. My friends and I are into ’90s hip-hop, and we think it’s funny to pose like the guys on those CD covers. We call that “hard style.” I take pictures doing that with all kinds of dumb stuff. I’m straight edge, so I have to find some way to stay entertained [since I don’t drink]. I really didn’t think anybody outside of my friends would find it entertaining.
12
I was actually playing at the “Magic The Gathering” convention where I took the pictures. News outlets have said I’m a rapper who crashed the convention. I am a rapper, but I was there to play. After I was done, I just went around busting out “hard style” next to some buttcracks and posting pictures of them with Bible verses and random captions like, “booty got me swoll.” I
wasn’t trying to make fun of anybody at the convention; I am a “Magic The Gathering” fan too. I just thought it was funny to take some pictures next to their cracks. I woke up the morning after I posted the pictures to more than 100 notifications. I got calls, emails, Facebook messages, everything. I had no idea why. I returned my Dad’s call first. He said, “Did you know you’re on Time Magazine’s website?” I said, “I was unaware, Dad.” I got online and saw how it had blown up. I was shocked. The photos got me banned from playing “Magic.” I got an email saying I was suspended from playing competitive “Magic” for 18 months. It was nuts because a guy who was caught cheating when a lot of cash was on the line

Being known as the “buttcrack guy� on the internet is pretty hilarious. My friends and I do crazy stuff all the time and it’s actually surprising this group of pictures got noticed the way it did. It’s funny that of all things, this is what got me “internet fame� — if that’s even a real thing. I never intended for anything to come out of my silly pictures, but if anything does, I hope I get to rap with Action Bronson. I remember watching a video of him rapping in a retirement home and I realized he and I were on

But I got some positive support too. Michael Ian Black said it was comedy gold. Even a couple of the guys in the pictures messaged me and told me how funny it was.

What do you get when you combine one of our favorite Columbus fes-
tivals and one of our favorite growing Columbus neighborhoods? Probably all kinds of awesome. The organizers of Independents’ Day have just announced that they will be moving from its Downtown home since 2008 at the intersection of Pearl and Gay streets to the burgeoning arts scene of Franklinton. This year’s festival will take place Sept. 19-21. Bringing together a full day (or, last year, days) of local music, food and arts, Independents’ Day has long been one of our favorite showcases of Columbus. The 2014 event will be led by newly appointed “captain” Shea Scott, in line with Indepedents’ Day’s rotation in leadership positions meant to keep the event fresh. “We’re excited to join the city-wide movement to redevelop Franklinton,” Scott said. “We’re seeing the same passion from artists and independent business owners moving to the area that originally at-
tracted us to Gay Street six years ago.” The move is also great news for Franklinton, which has in recent years seen 400 West Rich grow into a full-on incubator for the arts scene, as well as the relocation of the Columbus Idea Foundry to Franklinton and much more. Oh, and one of our favorite new food and drink spots, Strongwater Food and Spirits. The event will be taking place between Rich and State streets and adjacent alleyways in the area home to both 400 West Rich and Strongwater. Scott added that organizers are excited to have a chance to expand the festival’s footprint. “We couldn’t be happier to host Independents’ Day in Franklinton,” said Jim Sweeney, Executive Director of the Franklinton Development Association. “It’s a great festival, and this is a perfect location. We’re looking forward to awesome art, music, and people.” —BRAD KEEFE

As evidenced by Kanye West’s recent appearance on the cover of Vogue, the worlds of fashion and music are increasingly intertwined. Now a new festival scheduled to take place in and around the Arena District late this summer is embracing the relationship. The three-day Fashion Meets Music Festival (or FMMF for short), which runs Aug. 29-31, is set to feature 250 bands and 300 music and fashion labels, according to a press release. And now we’re getting our first taste of the lineup being assembled by organizers. The full slate of bands performing on the free stages (the fest will also include ticketed shows from a number of bigger-name acts, which should be released in the next month or so) will be announced on Thursday, March 27, during an 8 p.m. launch event at The Three-Legged Mare.

SPRING! STORY AND PHOTOS BY ERIK RETTMAN
MUSIC
Spring is finally here, and warmer weather is just around the corner. This means out with the heavy coats, scarves and gloves, and in with the warmer-weather fashion. Michele exemplifies this transition to spring with her awesome cat-print dress and faux-leather bomber jacket. I think we’re going to be seeing more playful prints like this as the season moves on. Another trend I like for this season is using softer, pastel colors. Christen has the Easter-y color palette down with her pink shirt, blue jacket and orange sunglasses all in pastel hues.

Lots of celebrity hair news this week! Former Playboy model and magician-dater Holly Madison has dyed her hair from its platinum blonde to red. Alec’s daughter Ireland Baldwin now has blue hair instead of purple. And Madonna posted a picture on her Instagram of her LONG-HAIRED ARMPIT. Social media reacted just as she hoped — in disgust. Likely up next: Photos of Madonna’s red-and-blue-highlighted blonde bush.
Proving she is the original Jennifer Lawrence, actress EMMA STONE fangirled out on an Australian radio show about Scary Spice and the Spice Girls and followed her fandom with the rap breakdown from “Wannabe.�
on the most recent cover of Vogue with the headline “#worldsmosttalkedaboutcouple.� The issue has quickly become the #worldsmosthatedcover. Sarah Michelle Gellar, for example, publicly cancelled her subscription to the fashion magazine. There are also reports that its photographer, famed Annie Leibovitz, only did it for the money, which explains why the photo looks like it was shot at JCPenney.
ACTRESS CAMERON DIAZ told a UK publication that monogamy is pretty much impossible, saying, “Everyone has been cheated on, everyone will be cheated on.� Anyone else have a sudden urge to watch “Vanilla Sky�?

OBSCURE STRINGED INSTRUMENTS
I play a bunch of different things, but I’ve never been able to just stop and be like, “I’m just going to play guitar.” If I see a stringed instrument that I’ve never seen before or I’m in some store, I’ll really feel the need to play it and probably want one. I’ve kind of amassed this library of stringed instruments. When we were making the record, all of those are on there. Not everything but a lot of stuff. The instruments themselves, the objects, are less what I’m interested in, but more their capacity to excavate in specific ways.

“REVIEW”
Probably the first visual artist I became really interested in. Whatever age you are, his work has this accessibility to it, and that’s something I’ve grown to appreciate more. It’s less intellectual acrobatics, even though there’s this level of rigor and sophistication to how well-executed it is. The whole notion of surrealism, I like that sensibility as far as music and stuff goes. That’s something I’d want to infuse into the kind of work I make too, having something with that level of accessibility and that people could appreciate... But also there’s something challenging as well.

or many, having a child introduces an element of chaos to life. Schedules are drastically rearranged, priorities shift and sleep, whatever that is, goes largely forsaken. For others, like Ghost Shirt singer/songwriter Branden Barnett, parenthood can become a reason to finally hit pause and take stock of things. “Becoming a father made me realize I needed to take a break. Not just to focus on being a dad — I mean, obviously that’s part of it — but I really think I was so caught up in the momentum of making music that there wasn’t much intention behind it anymore,” said Barnett, 32, reached by phone at his home in St. Petersburg, Florida, where the longtime Columbus resident has

The music reflects this agitated mindstate, swinging from shaggy acoustic laments (the title track) to indie-rock epics awash in orchestral flourishes (the grandiose, Arcade Fire-like “Devils”). Throughout, Barnett sings of swarming angels and demons, though there’s a gnawing sense the latter is winning the battle for supremacy. “Oh, what devils we’ll make with our fiery wings,” the band sings triumphantly on one number. “Listening to it now with fresh ears, it kind of said some stuff I needed to hear, which is hilarious because the dude who wrote [those songs] was a wreck,” Barnett said. “I think the main thing I pulled away from it was to not take myself so damned seriously all the time. The guy who wrote [Daniel] is really sort of buried in his own beliefs and conceptions about the world, and as a result is having a very hard time connecting with anyone. Hearing the pain in that is, like, ‘Whoa, I’m so happy that’s no longer a thing.’” That’s not to say music no longer plays a therapeutic role in Barnett’s existence. The process of recording the next, still-untitled Ghost Shirt album, which could be released digitally in time for this weekend’s shows, doubled as an experiment in letting go (Barnett, a notorious control freak, allowed others to handle everything from the mixing process to the cover art to deciding on the album’s title), and an in-progress solo project has found the singer delving into his past with more honesty than ever before. “It’s kind of turned into this home recording project about my childhood, and how all that stuff changes and troubles a person if they have a rough one,” said Barnett, who’s recording the LP on a handheld eight-track using his son’s toy instruments. “It’s kind of about child abuse, so it’s probably the most personal thing I’ve ever written. It’s sort of a cleaning of the closest so that I can be a better father.”

lived since December 2012 (several band members still maintain local roots). “I sort of gave myself a break to figure out why I spend all my time writing songs. Is it enjoyable? Is it something that helps me grow? Or is it something I use to help beef up my self-importance and ego? Am I using it for the light side or the dark side of the force?” It’s not surprising Barnett would subject himself to such intensive selfanalysis. In his 9-to-5 guise, the musician works as a psychotherapist, applying meditation and mindfulness-based therapies to his interactions with youths living in foster care settings. What did surprise, however, were some of the truths he discovered about himself when he set music aside for the better part of 2013 after allowing it to define much of his adult existence. “Most dudes write about sadness and chicks — I’m no exception to that — but it turned into something where I would screw up my life intentionally and screw up relationships in order to write a really big record about it,” he said. “I legitimized myself by being Branden Barnett, songwriter in Ghost Shirt, and when I moved and that was taken away I felt miserable because I didn’t know what was underneath. [The music] was how I was propping my identity up, and I was using it as a way to make myself feel good about myself more than is healthy.” These days, Barnett said his contentment comes from his family life (he’s happily married with a 14-month-old son), his work (he recently opened his own practice and has started consulting with a large company on a wellness program for employees) and a sense of inner-calm he’s uncovered in the two years he’s lived as a practicing Buddhist. So what better time to revisit Daniel, the long-lost Ghost Shirt album the band recorded (but never released) in 2010, a period in Barnett’s life defined by nearconstant turmoil. “I felt so crazy, and [Daniel] was a really raw way to express how crazy I felt,” said Barnett, who joins his Ghost Shirt bandmates for shows on Friday and Saturday to celebrate the album’s long-awaited vinyl release. “It’s definitely troubled, emotional Branden you’re hearing.”

VERTICAL SCRATCHERS BY ANDY DOWNING // @andydowning33 Vertical Scratchers singer/guitarist John Schmersal is in the midst of a creative renaissance. In October, he released the debut album from his group Crooks on Tape, an experimental collective he launched with former Enon bandmate Rick Lee. Then in February he issued Daughter of Everything, the first offering from the comparatively straightforward Vertical Scratchers, a Los Angeles-based duo that also includes ex-Triclops! drummer Christian Beaulieu. This creative outpouring follows a five-year period where Schmersal held down a steady gig as a touring guitarist for Caribou rather than releasing any material of his own. The reasons for this, it turns out, are multifaceted. The frontman believed Enon had exhausted itself creatively and the years of touring and recording on a shoestring budget had drained his financial reserves. “I had accumulated a lot of debt, and it wasn’t physically possible [to continue] without it being careless,” said Schmersal, 40, who brings Vertical Scratchers to Double Happiness for a concert on Sunday, March 30. “If anything it took a little while to get back to a financial place where I could afford to put out records.” There was also an element of writer’s block that factored in. While Schmer-

WHY YOU SHOULD GO
Esteemed rock critic Robert Christgau once referred to the Cincinnati quartet as “the best band in America,� yet none of the five albums the crew has released since 2005 have been made available outside the United States. That finally changed with 2012’s Buckeye, a widely distributed, career-spanning compilation that doubles as a perfect introduction to the band’s scruffy college-rock sound, which, much like Rob Lowe, appears to have been completely unaltered by the passage of time.
CARABAR
“Comfort,â€? one of the more recent songs by New Jersey rockers Planning for Burial, appears to offer anything but; sluggish drums, a white-noise guitar squall and growlingfrom-the-great-beyond vocals come together to create a wholly unsettling landscape. On Facebook, the band notes it has something of a dual personality, writing, “The loud version [of the band] is a droning‌wall-of-sound while the quiet version is soft and pretty.â€?
CAFÉ BOURBON STREET
Philadelphian Mike Polizze initially launched Purling Hiss as a solo project in 2009, and while the band has grown in size in the ensuing years (it now performs as a trio), its music has remained as scrappy as ever, driven by Polizze’s unabashed love for big, retro rock riffs. Of course, some things have changed. Last year’s Water on Mars added a thin veneer of polish to the crew’s sound, and Polizze’s playing, like a dedicated weightlifter, has grown increasingly muscular over time, giving additional heft to even its earliest tunes.

Musician Ben Sharp has never been particularly fond of language, so it makes perfect sense he would abandon it altogether with his solo instru-metal project Cloudkicker. “Words have always been clumsy, and speaking to people was not ever really my thing,� said Sharp, 28, over a hot cup of tea on a chilly mid-March afternoon. “Like a lot of other people, I was selfconscious about everything, and it’s not fun to put that on display.� Even so, many of Sharp’s earliest bands centered around vocalists, and it wasn’t until the Los Angeles native, who relocated to Columbus in 2007 and now makes his home in Clintonville, attended a 2004 concert featuring instrumental rockers Explosions in the Sky that he started to appreciate the impressive power this wordless approach could generate. “It had the impact of the more aggressive music I was listening to, without a lot of the elements I thought were superfluous,� said the musician, who will be making his live debut as Cloudkicker when he takes the stage at Ace of Cups this weekend with an assist from Intronaut, an L.A.-based prog-metal band that will serve in the dual role as concert headliners and Sharp’s backing group. “I realized to have an impact with your music maybe you didn’t need to do the obvious thing, like scream or use loud,
distorted guitars.� Some of the most stirring moments on Subsume, the musician’s latest release under the Cloudkicker banner, are also among its quietest, Sharp immersing the listener in long, ambient passages that evoke the same weightless sensation as taking in a 3D screening of director Alfonso Cuaron’s “Gravity.� Also like “Gravity,� these more serene moments tend to be interrupted by explosive outbursts, violent gusts of space junk blowing through and shredding absolutely everything in sight. But while this sense of experimentation has occasionally included toying with words (voices haunt the background on the title cut off 2011’s Let Yourself Be Huge), Sharp still can’t envision a future where vocals take on a more dominant role. “I sing in the shower sometimes when I’m alone, but I’m even selfconscious about that,� he said. “Based on the responses I get from people, the message [in the music] comes across even without [lyrics]. I think something is being communicated in a way I could never do with words.�

A release party at Skully’s Music-Diner for any musical group isn’t necessarily front-page news, but if it occurred a few years ago and you were a hip-hop act, it would have been. In recent years, though, the venue’s started to host more and more hip-hop shows, and MC Tony “G. Finesse” Haslett, who occasionally runs lights at Skully’s, has seen the venue’s progression firsthand. In a similar way, G. Finesse is an embodiment of those changing times in Columbus. Among a few late lunchers and the eerie emptiness that is the Music-Diner on a recent Tuesday afternoon, the rapper discussed his upcoming debut solo album, Eardrugz, and its accompanying release show at the venue. “It’s more of an explanation of our culture and how the perspective of hip-hop got into this city,” G. Finesse said. “I feel like this is the most conceptual work that I’ve had, the most in-depth about my actual life.” As the MC of the band G. Finesse and the N.S., Finesse will perform separately from his usual crew for this show, instead opting to work with different musicians and producers for this likewise different sound. “Eardrugz is really me getting with my producers and building my sound as a solo artist

from the ground up,” he said. “My whole thing coming into this [project] was to be a really good MC [and] writer, but also to have a really killer live show as a rapper.” The concert takes place almost a year to the day Finesse and his group released its debut album at Skully’s, N.S.E.P. This release party will be similar in some ways, but Finesse wants the show
to feel more urban, more straight-up hip-hop. “This is really me being like, yeah I can run around with a band but I’ve got bars,” G. Finesse said. “I think people think band rappers can’t rap and it’s about the band. [But] I’ve got bars and I can contend with any rapper anywhere because I work on my craft every day.”

THEO’S LOOSE HINGES
Despite the band’s name, soul/ blues trio Theo’s Loose Hinges sounded impressively tight during a recent Thursday performance at Brothers Drake Meadery & Bar. Anchored by singer/guitarist Theo Perry, who also moonlights in The Floorwalkers, drummer Kenny Caterer, and with substitute bassist Joe Patterson (The Wet Darlings) standing in for Nate Smith, the crew eased into a set that mixed original tunes with a handful of generally well-chosen covers. The opening song established the tone for the evening, Perry singing, “[There are] a million ways to say I love you” atop a swooning soul groove. And he didn’t hesitate to explore all of them, turning out heart-tugging numbers where he pledged his unending devotion (“Don’t Walk Away”), envisioned a married life raising a family in the countryside (a cover of The Temptations’ “Just My Imagination (Running Away With Me)”) and sang of drying a lover’s tears at the close of a sappy movie (“Shots of Honey”). Perry, a singer in possession of a buttery croon, was so genteel and adept at playing the lady’s man that those rare moments the music took a
darker turn almost felt out of character. When he ripped into “You’re Never too Old, You’re Never too Young to Sing the Blues,” for one, the musician still couldn’t help but dance, ripping off a boogying blues solo. Similarly, a cover of Johnny Cash’s “Folsom Prison Blues,” which the trio fashioned into an up-tempo shuffle rather than a prisonhouse lament, felt just a touch too polite, and I half expected Perry to follow “I shot a man in Reno” with “it was an accident … oh god someone help me get this man to a hospital!” These two halves uncovered a more symbiotic relationship on “Holding the Line,” a sighing ballad where Perry crooned of the “heavy load on his shoulders” while his guitar provided the counterbalance, an airy solo drifting weightlessly through the space. The 45-minute set — the first of two the Loose Hinges played on this night — had an undeniable momentum, gradually building from mellow soul ballads to shuffling blues numbers to whisky-fueled closer “Next to You,” a howling little ditty where Perry’s mood (“I’m feeling frisky,” he yelped) and his snarling six-string work came together in perfect harmony.

RENOWNED GRAPHIC NOVELIST
LILLI CARRÉ COMES TO COLUMBUS BY JESSE TIGGES // @Jesse_Tigges s PHOTOS BY MEGHAN RALSTON
F ColumbusAlive.com | Thursday, March 27, 2014
or its third year The Columbus Museum of Art and Thurber House chose Chicagobased artist Lilli Carré for the annual Graphic Novelist Residency. Carré, like previous recipients Paul Hornschemeier (2012) and Ed Piskor (2013), is crafting a work-inprogress comic, exhibiting her work, and during the three weeks she’s in Columbus, she’s staying in an apartment at the historic home of author and cartoonist James Thurber.
36
“I’m trying to script my next comic story. In my regular life, that’s the hardest part of comics for me. I’m so distracted by my own home and life,” Carré said. “It’s really nice to be here, out of my element, in an attic of this historic house trying to fluidly put my thoughts to paper … writing and doing thumbnails and building out this one story.” Carré’s exhibit opened March 14 and runs through June 8, but her time in Columbus is coming to an end soon. Before
that though, Carré will sit down with comics writer and blogger Jared Gardner, also a professor of English and film studies at OSU, to discuss her creative process Sunday, March 30 at the museum. The reason for the residency program is two-fold: The literary and art institutions wanted to collaborate, and comics and graphic novels were the perfect overlap, and Columbus is a burgeoning place for the art form. “One of the reasons we started the residency is just
how much attention Columbus is getting as a center for comics. There’s a really strong creator community here, plus there’s some academic symposia and the Billy Ireland [Cartoon Library and Museum],” said Columbus Museum of Art Creative Producer Jeff Sims. “As Columbus becomes more of a place for comics and their study, we want to be a part of it.” Carré, the daughter of two graphic artists, is originally from Los Angeles and moved to Chicago to attend the School of

D. FOY’S “MADE TO BREAK” BY JUSTIN MCINTOSH // @AliveEditor

D. Foy’s debut novel “Made to Break” has been in and out of so many drawers since its first words were written in 1998 that you can see how, perhaps, that sense of displacement has bled into the book itself over the years. The group of friends who populate “Made to Break,” which was published by locals Two Dollar Radio, are similarly adrift. “None of these people have any sense of home because none of them have any strong sense of family,” Foy said during a recent phone interview. “They’re unmoored, and that’s part of the reason they’ve made their own twisted family.” Since Feb. 26, Foy has also lived the life of a sojourner, crafting a 30city, largely DIY book tour through sheer hustle. The tour swings through Columbus Thursday with a reading at Skylab Gallery. The novel’s characters are involved in various hustles of their own. They try on numerous identities, but never really blossom into them as much as wilt. The threats that face these friends who find themselves trapped in a Lake Tahoe cabin on New Year’s Eve are all internal. Their enemies are themselves; their own bitter, calloused egos and long-simmering slights stir the pot of angst that bubbles over throughout.
But this isn’t a Debbie Downer of a debut. Foy has instead crafted a bustling, colorful tale that aims to get at what binds longtime friends, particularly when they might not really like each other — or themselves. Think “Twelve Angry Men” for the Hunter S. Thompson set. Everyone’s on trial, but the reckoning comes through drugs, alcohol and violence. Foy calls it gutter opera, this blend of street and high-brow that utilizes stylistic shifts and tones and genremashing to illuminate the novel’s themes. If it’s uneven or jarring, it was done for a particular purpose. “I use a lot of these tropes to get at these various aspects of the world that interest me,” he said. “I’m really interested in the notion of what appears to be and what is, the difference between truth and falsehood and allusion and reality, and the shifting nature of people and people’s personalities and the face they show in one context and the face they show in another.”

Carl Hoffman (author of “The Lunatic Express”) will discuss his latest book, “Savage Harvest: A Tale of Cannibals, Colonialism and Michael Rockefeller’s Tragic Quest for Primitive Art,” a gripping story about the mysterious death of Rockefeller in the Asmat region of New Guinea. In 1961, Rockefeller traveled to Asmat — home to a people known for headhunting and cannibalism — to collect primitive art for his father, then-New York Governor Nelson Rockefeller, and his new museum. The story presented was that Rockefeller drowned after his ship capsized. But Hoffman, as much of an adventurer as an author who’s traveled to 65 countries, went to the region to find the truth because there were rumors Rockefeller was killed and eaten by the local people. Hoffman unearthed original documents and spoke with witnesses from the day of Rockefeller’s death for the book. He will read a selection from “Savage Harvest,” followed by a reception.—JESSE TIGGES

t’s fitting some of our Best of Columbus winners earned their designations during March Madness. See, this year featured multiple buzzer-beaters, including the closestever finish in the competition’s history. A mere two votes (two!) separated The Angry Baker and Explorers Club in the Best Vegetarian Restaurant category. Even the category’s third and fourth-place finishers only trailed by 50-or-so votes. Other close finishes were found in the Best Local Alcohol (27 votes), Best Traditional Pizza (34 votes) and Best New Food Truck (65 votes) categories, among others. Still, it wasn’t all horseshoes and hand grenades, as evidenced by two prominent categories, Best New Bar and Best New Restaurant. It shouldn’t surprise readers 16-Bit Bar + Arcade took home the former category, while Melt Bar and Grilled won the latter. The Fourth Street hotspot and the Short North grilled cheese mavens each claimed their honors with landslide margins. The results are especially compelling considering Alive’s Best of Columbus competition, which stretches from dining to nightlife to shopping, is the city’s largest. More than 15,000 of you voted this year, compiling a grand-whopping 603,806 total votes. So, you know, democracy! Definitive victors or not, we’re all winners for getting to enjoy these cool-as-all-get-out businesses though, right? Right.

MIKEY’S LATE NIGHT SLICE
HARVEST PIZZERIA
It’s right in the name. Duh. Late Night Slice was an idea borne out of co-founder Mikey Sorboro’s desire for a nice greasy slice after a night of drinking. That formula continues to be winning. Next time you need to soak up all that booze, you know where to go.
If you think sophistication and pizza don’t go together, you’ve never been to Harvest. Since 2011, they’ve been serving up pies for people with a palate in their German Village location to packed crowds. And the recently opened Clintonville location will only add to their welldeserved popularity.

MIKEY’S LATE NIGHT SLICE
It was one of the closest races in our entire reader poll, but multiple winner Late Night Slice has another feather in its cap with this title, edging Hounddog’s by 0.2 percent of the total vote. Try it with the Slut Sauce on the side for once, and you’ll see.
You really can’t get much cheaper than Late Night Slice — $3 for a filling slice, cheap sides, hell, they’ve even got cans of Faygo — but what makes it the best is that it doesn’t taste cheap. And as the Mikey’s empire continues to expand, they’re doing their part to keep Columbus full without breaking the bank.

Farmers markets generally have a small-town community vibe going for them. North Market’s version’s no different, but it amplifies that feeling ten-fold on sheer size and selection alone. Easily, the city’s biggest and baddest (in a good way) farmers market.
Northstar Café might not be the first spot that springs to mind when one thinks “Mexican food,” but the local joint bested the competition by packing its hearty burritos with an array of fresh and healthy ingredients. Oh, and they tasted dang good, too.

Playwright and lyricist Joe DiPietro and composer Jimmy Roberts gathered some gender stereotypes, mixed in outtakes from a Cialis commercial, leavened with the psychosexual complexities of lust, love, loss, commitment, parenthood, divorce and aging, and came up with the musical “I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change.” CATCO’s current production fills the Riffe Center’s intimate Studio Three Theatre with some imaginative rhymes sung to Matt Clemens’ piano dexterity. But the real appeal of “Love/Perfect/ Change” are the four engaging performances that track the twists and turns of love and
life through a series of vignettes. Eli Brickey nails what is probably the emotional highlight of the play in “I Will Be Loved Tonight.” Having beaten her date at tennis, she asks him a question that propels their relationship in a new direction. In “Always a Bridesmaid,” Krista Lively Stauffer laments both her perpetually unattached state and the hideous gowns she’s collected as a member of her friends’ wedding parties: “For Caitlin, I wore satin / Which I looked really fat in.” Kevin Carty looks across the table at his wife of three decades, contemplating their life together and all the friends who’ve gotten divorced.

David Gordon Green will present two “Eastbound & Down” episodes — the first and last he directed — and then hold a discussion after the screening Saturday. Here are some highlights from a recent phone interview about the legacy of the outrageous HBO comedy, working with his close friends and more. The full interview is at columbusalive.com. I thought it would be fun, just as a conversation, to see how that series evolved; where I went as a director, from my very first episode to the last one. It wasn’t an enormous period of time, but I feel like there’s probably some substantial evolution of the show. We got bigger budgets [each] season, a bit more ambitious … and more comfortable and confident in the characters. As the audience embraced the show we thought we could get away with more. I wasn’t going to direct any [episodes]. I was just supportive of the show; Danny McBride, Jody Hill and I had a company together and have been great friends since college. Jody directed the pilot and the show got picked up … maybe a year later, and he was filming “Observe and Report” and couldn’t get away to do it. They let him out for one more episode. So I ended up taking two, three and four. Adam McKay did five and Jodi did the last one. We all just had such a great time tag-teaming it creatively that we just handled the rest in the same way. [McBride and I] have been best buds for 15 years, so you get to know someone and you know what buttons
you can push … I’ve always really believed in Danny as a dramatic talent. The more he became comfortable with Kenny [Powers] and the more the audience became, at least accepting of Kenny. I don’t know if anyone ever gets comfortable with him. But people do come to accept him, and we were able to challenge the dramatic elements and push him a little bit further. [“Eastbound & Down”] is the most idealized form of creative collaboration amongst comrades that you could ever imagine. You look forward to going to work every day and … Danny, Jodi and I are working on our HBO follow-up that’s going to start shooting at the end of this year or the beginning of next year. It’s being written right now by a great crew of writers, a lot of “Eastbound” folks are returning.

“ENEMY”
Opens Friday at the Gateway
BY BRAD KEEFE // @bradalive “Chaos is order yet undeciphered,” reads a title card at the beginning of Denis Villeneuve’s “Enemy.” It’s a tone-setter for a film that examines personhood in unsettling ways. Adam (Jake Gyllenhaal) is a glum history professor at a university. He returns from his lectures and dutifully makes love to his girlfriend Mary (Melanie Laurent). It’s a relationship that seems glued together out of comfort rather than passion. A colleague recommends a film, which Adam picks up at a video store (if you can remember those). In watching the movie, Adam spots an actor in a bit part with more than a passing resemblance to himself. He first dismisses it as an interesting curiosity, but soon becomes obsessed with finding this man. Villeneuve follows up his excellent — and similarly bleak — “Prisoners” in a reunion with star Gyllenhaal. He creates a slow-boiling thriller that increases tension until there’s almost no air in the room. There are certainly more than a few hints of Hitchcock, as well as the darker side of David Lynch. Gyllenhaal is something of an underappreciated actor in my book, and
as his dual characters come closer to discovering each other, he’s given range to both brood and explode. And brooding and exploding are Gyllenhaal’s forte. He gets great support from Laurent (“Beginners,” “Inglourious Basterds”). The film is gorgeously shot by cinematographer Nicolas Bolduc, and features an evocative score that highlights the tension without being overbearing. This brings us back to the “chaos.” “Enemy” is equal parts fascinating and frustrating. Viewers may find more “undeciphered” than “order” in its resolution — and some interestingly unresolved moments. I gave a similar warning to the inmy-book excellent “Upstream Color” (now streaming on Netflix) and took some flak from some friends who later watched it. Consider that a warning.

BY BRAD KEEFE @bradalive It feels like it was just Documentary Week at the Gateway Film Center — what feels like six months of winter will do that — but the biannual event returns this week.

ALIVE RECOMMENDS PEOPLE
“AMERICAN HUSTLE”
MUSIC
Director David O. Russell takes the Abscam scandal of the late ’70s and a powerhouse cast (Christian Bale, Amy Adams, Jennifer Lawrence, Bradley Cooper) and turns in one of the best — and funniest — movies of the year.
“DALLAS BUYER’S CLUB”
ARTS ARTS
Exploring many facets of AIDS in the Reagan era, this film is a crowd-pleaser led by award-winning performances by Matthew McConaughey and Jared Leto.
“THE GRAND BUDAPEST HOTEL”
EAT & DRINK
Director Wes Anderson’s most, well, grand movie yet is about the life of a young bellhop and his rise to become an impossibly wealthy man, in what’s also the director’s most visually stunning work to date.
“GRAVITY”
Alfonso Cuaron’s Academy Award-winning film deals with two astronauts (Sandra Bullock, George Clooney) alone and adrift above the Earth’s surface and their efforts to get home. It’s also a masterpiece with gorgeous cinematography, careerdefining performances and incredible depth.
A-LIST
“THE WOLF OF WALL STREET”
The latest collaboration between Martin Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio is a winning morality tale and three-hour coke-snorting, wang-swinging, flag-waving ode to greed.
ALSO PLAYING “300: RISE OF AN EMPIRE”
The sequel to the smash-hit action flick that introduced a “Matrix”-level revolutionary visual technique relies more on style than substance.

he Harvest Pizza restaurant family has grown from indie upstart to ambitious juggernaut in less than three years. This sort of progress can augur diminished quality and/or weloved-you-as-an-underdog backlash. But, as the bustling new Harvest Bar & Kitchen in Clintonville demonstrates, this budding company
— which includes edgy-cocktailsloshing Curio, retro-mod Sycamore Cafe and the original brilliant pizzeria — seems too smart to screw up. In other words, I’m already considering HBK for my 2014 list of Best New Restaurants. Stylishly overhauling the old Mozart’s space, great-looking HBK has a sorta rustic-chic, past-
streams-into-the-present thing going on. It’s smallish-but-efficient, with flattering lighting, comfy booths and “Hi neighbor!” tables. There’s also a muted-TV-equipped bar with abundant seating. File HBK’s decorating theme under “time-spanning celebration of agriculture.” Here, bygone-erabucolic-scene-depicting wallpaper

there’s a huge kitchen here — also rock. Plus, I like how they range from fun (thick batter-fried Pickle Chips with an intense aioli and classed-up Ranch-like sauce, $6) to unusual (huge Portobella Fries — mine were greasy — with I’mnot-convinced “banana ketchup,� $8 ) to elegant (cloud-like, must-have Ricotta Gnocchi, $7). HBK also expertly sears impressive — if expensive — burgers that arrive on beautiful glossy buns and are sided with killer fried “smashed fingerling potatoes.� I appreciated the mild Duck ($15; orange marmalade and a spicy slaw fought the patty to a standstill), dug the grass-fed, elaborately garnished juicebomb Harvest ($14), but was floored by the best Turkey Burger ever ($13, with addictive house pimento cheese, leeks, Laurel Valley Cloverton and more). There are whopping-sized sandwiches too ($12-$15). Arriving with nice housemade sweet potato chips, and on crustysoft-chewy “Dutch crunch rolls,� they’re hearty and crafty. Try the wonderful (jerk cauliflower puree!) Roasted Veggie. And try dessert ($6-$7), because they’re also great. My favorite is the pudding-like Butterscotch Budino, but the large-and-in-charge Buckeye Pie, homey Mama’s Seasonal Pie (baked by the owner’s mother), and classic Affogato (coffee and ice cream) likewise wow. My only question: What can the Harvest restaurant family wow me with next?

HBK’s terrific food and drink — an inspired mashup of Curio, Harvest and Sycamore — similarly links traditional to contemporary. Along with a nice little wine list (econo-alert No. 1: $6 glasses of Dr. Loosen riesling and Breca garnacha), plus 10 well-curated BUCKEYE PIE taps (including a hoppy/ citrusy namesake pale ale made by Elevator, $4), there are sophisticated cocktails ($10). From the latter, I lapped and loved The Ferretti (a complex, “Chinese bitters�-enhanced spin on the Manhattan), a bitter, orange-kissed and root beery Dapper Dan (with Cocchi Torino, Cynar and Watershed Bourbon) and a refreshing Sensual Peelings (fresh citrus, Chartreuse, Cocchi Americano and Watershed Four Peel Gin combine for quinine-biting lemonade). Food-wise, unsurprisingly, HBK’s local-ingredient-sourcing, yeasty, thincrusted and edge-charred handmade pizzas are spectacular. Try the chorizo-and-jalapeno-ignited Spicy Yuma or the vibrant, San Francisco-honoring Geary Street (with chopped clams and fresh mozzarella). Pies are fair-priced ($11-$14), except 11-4 daily, when (econo-alert No. 2) slightly smaller, $7 versions offer one of the best lunch specials in Columbus. Enhance that lunch deal with a side salad for $2 (biggies are $9). Because, from the gussied-up Italian-like House Chop (with ricotta salata, pepperoncini and chickpeas) to the blessedly uncreamy, parmigiano-reggiano-showered Kale Caesar (its tart dressing semitamed by roasted hazelnuts), to the dynamic, healthier-than-thou Mean Green (local lettuce, sprouted veggies, avocado and “green goddess� dressing), they’re all excellent. Appetizers — unlike German Village,

ONE DOOR CLOSES, ANOTHER OPENS FOR FRONT STREET BAR AND GRILL BY ABERNATHY MILLER @Abernathy_Alive PHOTO BY MEGHAN RALSTON The freshly minted Front Street Bar and Grill came with a built-in fan base. When a new landlord ordered Lori and Kevin Ames to “cease and desist” operating out of the former Jack Whitney’s, the Ames decided they wouldn’t let their gastropub die. After transforming the upscale Frezno into Front Street Bar and Grill, regular patrons of Jack Whitney’s, 20-somethings and empty-nesters alike fill the barstools to enjoy chef-centric pub grub and skiball in a relaxed atmosphere. “We had a lot of success with Jack Whitney’s, but when the building was sold we had to move,” owner Kevin Ames said. “We decided to bring that concept to the Frezno space, and a lot of our regulars from Jack Whitney’s are happy about it.” The space at 460 S. Front St. has been totally transformed. A ski-ball game and pool table dominate the former dining room. The patio offers ample seating and allows for quiet conversations, even with its close proximity to Front Street. A few TVs are mounted throughout, but not enough to be distracting. “The people we want to reach are more about socializing. They’d rather hang out with their friends than split a $70 bottle of wine with a date,” he said. “I think that’s why the Front Street concept will work better than Frezno. The focus is
FRONT STREET BAR AND GRILL 460 S. Front St., Brewery District 614-824-4367 facebook.com/frontstreetbarandgrill on fostering a social environment.” The menu reflects the concept shift by offering more small plates, and pub classics are favored over heavier dinner fare. “The focus now is on chef-driven tavern food,” Kevin said. “We want to offer simple dishes with quality ingre-
dients. We don’t want to over-do it.” Shareable items like pizza, wings and guacamole take center stage. A few favorites from Frezno still remain, including the Mediterranean Salad and Chicken Parmesan. According to Kevin, the response thus far has been overwhelmingly positive.
“At first we were concerned we wouldn’t get the chance to explain what happened to Frezno and Jack Whitney’s because we closed so suddenly,” Kevin said. “But the response has been surprisingly great. We are seeing a lot of old faces and some new ones, too.”

SAMPLE CLINTONVILLE’S FINEST FOODSTUFFS Clintonville, quite quickly, has become one of our city’s best food destinations over the last couple years. If you haven’t visited my hood yet to fully realize this on your own, you need to. What better time than Monday’s Taste of Clintonville event? A ticket ($25) will get you samples of signature dishes from more than 20 different Clintonville eateries. Take a look at the list of participating restaurants and see how simply astounding the diversity is. From vegetarian diner
Whole World Natural Bakery and Restaurant, raw/vegan options from Portia’s Café, gastropub fare from the Crest, ethnic food from Lavash and Aladdin’s, desserts from Pattycake, Colonial Candy Shoppe and Vienna Ice Café, and newbies to the hood like Angry Bear Kitchen and the Coop food truck, among others. Additionally, a mini Clintonville Farmers Market will be set up outside Mozart’s, where the event is taking place. Proceeds from the event will benefit Experi-
ence Clintonville, a nonprofit that promotes the neighborhood and organizes community events. But you better act now, the event’s close to selling out. —JUSTIN MCINTOSH

A SUNDAY
They were completely unapologetic. They were outrageous and gracious and terrifyingly confident all at once. Most noticeably, they weren’t sorry about any of it. “How are my tits?� the host asked rhetorically. Huge, was the answer. The stage at Wall Street Nightclub was set for Illusions Cabaret. Diana DeVore and the Showstoppers were up to bat, with the help of Toledo-based Amber Stone and former “RuPaul’s Drag Race� contestant India Ferrah. I couldn’t find anybody to go with. It was a cold Sunday night and the words “drag show� made the outing a tough sell. Tables filled the dance floor, and cocktail servers scurried around with drink orders. After a short introduction from club owner Scot Hafler, the performers filed onto the stage with their better-thanstripper stage names, and prosthesisenhanced Nicki Minaj measurements. The lights dimmed and smoke from a machine filled the room. Dressed as a lavish space cadet, DeVore led an opening number with the entire cast. Costumes ran the gamut from rhinestone tap shoes to a baby doll that harpooned political correctness. The smart mix of crowd-pleasing “diva� numbers and more experimental acts kept the sizable crowd happy. Not even my severe ADHD could withstand DeVore’s well-curated line-up.
TOPICS DISCUSSED: DIVAS. INDUSTRIAL MUSIC. CONJOINED TWINS.
Two men at the table directly in front of me saw I was alone and asked me to join them. Their friendliness and enthusiasm was contagious, so I moved into the empty stool. Nikki Stone performed to an industrial track by Mindless Self Indulgence, while Britney Blaire fashioned a doll into an unborn conjoined twin for her “You and Me (But Mostly Me)� number from “The Book of Mormon.� For conservative types, DeVore’s “Showstoppers� could have easily become “heart-stoppers.� After making plans to reconvene for our upcoming birthdays, I left my new friends and went looking for my favorite entertainer of the night. Amber Stone was clad in black feathers when I approached her. She was like a terrifyingly glamorous crow. “How do you get the courage to put it all out there like that?� I asked. She looked at me and smirked. She had been asked this question before. “I decided long ago that I was going to do me,� she said. “I adopted the motto, ‘If you don’t love me, I’m going to make you hate me,’ and I have lived that way ever since. I never let ’em see me sweat.� File last Sunday under: Too glam to give a damn. Downtown Abbey is a twice-monthly documentation of a random night out and all the meanderings and shenanigans that might entail.
