» Central Floridians showed up for ‘No Kings’ anti-Trump protests across the region
Downtown Orlando’s “No Kings” demonstration at City Hall was the scene for one of the largest protest crowds ever seen in the area, spilling over into side streets temporarily shut down because of the sheer crowd size. A multigenerational gathering of several thousand people massed late in the day Saturday to make their voices heard in unison against Donald Trump’s authoritarian policies — and help ruin his birthday — alongside protesters all around the country. At least a couple dozen Orlando police officers were also present, shutting down parts of Orange Avenue. A small group of Trump supporters infiltrated the rally and attempted to take the mic from speakers, but with some quick thinking and deescalation, nothing happened. There were, though, tense moments between the rally attendees, counter-protesters, and even police. All in all, the demonstration was peaceful, with no major reported casualties. Further south, Kissimmee showed up as well, as several hundred folks across generations gathered on and around a bridge Saturday to protest Donald Trump’s policies as part of the “No Kings” protests that spanned more than 2,000 U.S. cities, according to organizers.
» State budget leaders approved funds for construction of a Pulse memorial in Orlando
Florida House and Senate leaders have agreed to give the city of Orlando nearly $400,000 to build a permanent memorial to commemorate the 2016 mass shooting at Pulse nightclub in Orlando that killed 49 and wounded more than 50. The House and Senate had previously been split on how much to allocate for the request, which came from Orlando-area State Rep. Anna Eskamani and Sen. Carlos Guillermo Smith. The House had, in its own budget offer, previously agreed to allocate about $197,00, while the Senate offered the full requested amount of $394,321. Now they’ve reached agreement on the higher figure. Rep. Eskamani and Sen. Smith submitted matching funding requests this year for the city of Orlando, which took over the Pulse memorial construction project in late 2023. The memorial, slated for completion in 2027, is estimated to cost $12 million, according to the city. The city of Orlando plans to contribute up to $7.5 million, while Orange County leaders recently agreed to commit $5 million over the next three years.
» Florida saw a nearly 50 percent decline in abortions performed from this time last year
A reported 17,377 abortions were performed in Florida this year as of June 2, a 45.8 percent decrease from a comparable period in 2024, according to state data. The drop came after a law took effect in May 2024 that prevented most abortions after six weeks of pregnancy. As of June 3, 2024, a reported 32,081 abortions had been performed last year, state data showed at the time. Of the 17,377 abortions this year, 17,269 were in the first trimester of pregnancy and 108 were in the second trimester, according to a state Agency for Health Care Administration report. Of the second-trimester abortions, 70 were performed because of a “fatal fetal abnormality,” while 21 were performed because of what was listed as a “serious fatal genetic defect, deformity or abnormality.” Another 17 were because of a “life endangering physical condition” of the pregnant person.
» ‘Big, beautiful’ backdoor abortion ban could close 200 Planned Parenthood clinics
If the budget reconciliation package before the U.S. Senate becomes law in the coming weeks, reproductive health advocates say the provision that would cut federal funding to Planned Parenthood clinics could serve as a backdoor nationwide abortion ban, eliminating access to 1 in 4 abortion providers. Republicans included a provision prohibiting Medicaid funding from going to any sexual and reproductive health clinics that provide abortions and received more than $1 million in federal and state Medicaid funding in fiscal year 2024. Planned Parenthood clinics rely heavily on Medicaid funding — not to provide abortions, which is not permitted by federal law (with limited exceptions), but to provide standard reproductive health care at little to no cost, including treatment for sexually transmitted infections and cancer screenings, as well as contraception. According to Planned Parenthood, 200 of its clinics in 24 states are at risk of closure if the cuts proceed. Nearly all of those clinics — 90 percent — are in states where abortion is legal. In 12 states,
approximately 75 percent of abortion-providing Planned Parenthood health centers could close. The entire organization has about 600 clinics in 48 states, including Florida.
» Florida fell in child wellbeing rankings after reading and math scores dropped Florida’s falling reading and math scores contributed to an overall decline of the state’s ranking for child wellbeing. Florida dropped five spots in the 2025 Annie E. Casey Foundation Kids Count child wellbeing rankings, ranking 35th in 2025 and 30th in 2024. Florida ranked 19th best in the education category in 2025; last year, the state ranked 5th in education. The fall can be attributed to eighth graders’ math proficiency dropping, as well as fourth graders’ reading, as measured by the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP). For math, 21 percent of Florida eighth graders were proficient in 2024, a 10 percent drop since 2019, and for reading, 33 percent of fourth graders are proficient, a 5 percent drop since 2019. Nationwide, 3 percent of fourth graders are proficient in reading and 27 percent of eighth graders are proficient in math, data show. The economic wellbeing of Florida’s children, broadly, dropped one ranking, from 42nd to 43rd. Between 2019 and 2023, Florida decreased the number of children living in poverty from 18 percent to 16 percent. In that same time, Florida increased the number of children living in a household with a high housing cost burden by 2 percent, from 36 percent to 38 percent, a total of about 1.68 million children.

ERASURE
DeSantis erases ‘LGBTQ and Hispanic communities’ from Pulse remembrance statement
BY CHLOE GREENBERG AND MCKENNA SCHUELER
One day before the nine-year anniversary of the Pulse Nightclub shooting, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis directed flags to be flown at half staff in remembrance. His statement, however, omits mention of LGBTQ and Hispanic communities, two groups that made up most of the victims.
The mass shooting, during which 49 people were killed, 53 were wounded and countless were permanently affected, took place June 12, 2016,
in Orlando. In years prior, including last year and at least the three before that, DeSantis acknowledged these identifying characteristics of victims. Last year’s statement referred to the massacre as a “horrific act of terrorism against the LGBTQ and Hispanic communities.”This year’s statement, however, reads,“a shooter claiming alliance to the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant committed a horrific act of terrorism at Pulse Nightclub in Orlando, Florida.”
UNKINDEST CUTS
LGBTQ nonprofits in Orlando report loss of federal funds under the Trump administration, and concerns about proposed cuts to the national 988 suicide hotline
BY MCKENNA SCHUELER
Less than 24 hours after returning to the White House as U.S. President, Republican Donald Trump issued executive orders condemning “gender ideology” and diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives, with officials describing such initiatives as “radical” and “wasteful spending.”
Dr. George Wallace, executive director of the LGBT+ Center Orlando, said here in Central Florida, these directives have created “smoke and mirrors and confusion” not only for nonprofit leaders like himself, but also for their donors, sponsors and the communities they serve.
“It is saddening and frightening that people are trying to just push us aside and again erase us,” said Wallace, speaking on a League of Women Voters panel at the Winter Park Events Center last week. “And if we’re not here to fight, then things could be significantly different for our community in six months, in a year, in four years.”
Since January, the Trump administration has issued several orders (since challenged in the courts) banning transgender people from serving in the military, restricting gender-affirming care for trans people under age 20, and ending DEI initiatives and programs in the federal government.
During DeSantis’ first year in office in 2019, he similarly omitted mention of the groups most affected in his initial message on the anniversary of the shooting, which earned him widespread backlash. Ultimately, a different version of the message that included the groups was released the following day, before DeSantis visited the Pulse site just south of downtown.
The glaring omission of identity descriptors reflects DeSantis’ recent efforts to bolster “antiDEI” initiatives in state politics and social arenas, as well as to permanently cut DEI and critical race theory ideologies from Florida schools and universities. DeSantis in 2023 signed into law a measure that prevents colleges from spending money on diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives. He’s also been tireless in attempts to fill university presidential positions and top state education positions with Republican allies.
These efforts are also ripped straight from the Trump administration’s playbook to remove
mention of minorities, disproportionately affected communities, and significant historical figures and movements in government documents and proceedings. Federal directives from the Trump administration have even trickled down into local government, inspiring the Orange County Arts & Culture Advisory Council’s quiet removal of the word “diverse” from its mission statement last month.
DeSantis’ curiously neutered memorial statement comes amid plenty of change surrounding the Pulse site and proposed memorial. State budget leaders last week approved funds reaching nearly $400,000 to go toward an official and permanent memorial site to commemorate the shooting — if approved by Gov. DeSantis in the final budget. The Orange County board of commissioners also recently committed a pledge of $5 million for the memorial, which is expected to cost about $12 million total.
news@orlandoweekly.com
The Trump administration has also cut millions of dollars in federal grants for health research, including funding for research projects at the University of Central Florida into the prevention of suicide and sexually transmitted disease among racial and gender minorities.
“There’s a real concern that a DOGE [Department of Government Efficiency]-like assault on nonprofits could be coming down the pipe, affecting not only our ability to function, but also our ability to raise money,” said Pride Chamber president and CEO Gina Duncan, who moderated the panel.
Duncan, a former director of transgender equality for Equality Florida, said she’s been on conference calls in recent months with other state and national LGBTQ organizations like Human Rights Watch and the American Civil Liberties Union to learn more about what could be coming their way next.
Floridians, of course, are no strangers to efforts by government officials to weed out DEI initiatives or roll back any protections and rights afforded to the state’s LGBTQ communities. In 2023, Gov. Ron DeSantis signed into law a slate of bills that enacted restrictions on gender-affirming healthcare for transgender people, instruction touching on gender identify and
sexual orientation in schools, DEI initiatives in public colleges and universities, and drag performances.
“One of the biggest challenges I have is the fact that people are trying to erase me and my community and our identity,” said Wallace of the Center. “Something as simple as government buildings not being able to fly rainbow flags.”
A bill proposed by former Florida Sen. Randy Fine (now a U.S. Congressman) this year that failed to pass sought to ban government entities from flying Pride flags, as well as any other flag that “represents a political viewpoint.”
Nathan Bruemmer, a trans attorney from St. Petersburg who serves as acting executive director of St. Pete Pride, said he’s concerned about the mental health of LGBTQ+ youth amid all of the federal chaos. For those who are extremely troubled, unfortunately, funding for specialized services at the nation’s 988 suicide hotline is reportedly on the chopping block.
While the 988 hotline was allocated $520 million in the Department of Health and Human Services’ new budget proposal, the proposal reportedly cuts funding for a specialized hotline service for LGBT people that’s available to callers upon request.
A senior Trump administration official told NBC News the funding is being “reallocated” for general 988 services, not “cut.” This explanation isn’t reassuring for local advocates.
“To think that maybe in a year someone could call 988 and no one will pick up that phone is just frightening,” said Wallace. “Especially for youth, because they’re already underserved.”
Several local nonprofits have suffered casualties from the Trump administration’s directives, and have sought to make up for losses through the further diversification of funding sources. Wallace’s organization, the LGBT+ Center Orlando, lost $182,500 in federal and state grants earlier this year, according to Spectrum News 13.
The Center, which first opened back in 1978, serves as an important resource hub for LGBTQ+ individuals in the Orlando area. They offer mental health counseling, support groups, care coordination, and food assistance through a food pantry — all for free. The nonprofit also offers free HIV testing, a service available for anyone, regardless of whether they identify as LGBTQ+ or not.
Zebra Youth, a housing and social service agency for homeless LGBTQ+ youth and young adults, has similarly lost some of their federal funding since Trump retook the White House. So has QLatinx, a LGBTQ advocacy organization for Latinos.
“We’ve lost two of our health grants because they place those restrictions … on gender identity and sexual orientation,” said Gabriella Rodriguez, executive director of QLatinx, referring to the federal government. One of her organization’s sponsors, she added, “quietly withdrew” some of their funding in order to preemptively comply with vague directives from the Trump administration.
“Things are getting really, really tight, and we already lean on a very small budget, so we’ve had to lean on different partnerships, and we’ve had to lean on philanthropy,” Rodriguez explained.
She said efforts to undermine LGBTQ+ rights have only compounded concerns among the mostly immigrant and mixed legal status families her organization serves who face uncertainty amid the administration’s mass deportation efforts.
“What we’re seeing right now in our country is impacting folks from leaving their houses, is impacting folks from being able to do their day to day, from dropping off their kids at school or making a livable wage,” said Rodriguez. “I would also say a lot of the anti-LGBTQ rhetoric — so, folks that sit at both intersections — there’s a lot of fear within spaces.”

MILESTONE VICTORY
At least 100 local teachers unions in Florida managed to survive DeSantis’ stringent SB 256, part of his ongoing war on public sector unions
BY MCKENNA SCHUELER
The Florida Education Association, a statewide teachers union, announced last week that 100 of its local unions throughout the state had successfully recertified — meaning, teachers represented by those unions had voted to keep their existing union alive.
Under Senate Bill 256, passed into law in 2023, most public sector unions in the state must hold annual recertification elections if less than 60 percent of the workers they represent are full, dues-paying members.
Florida’s right-to-work law, a policy rooted in efforts to stomp out multiracial solidarity during Jim Crow, means that no worker represented by a union in Florida can be compelled to pay dues. So, reaching that 60 percent threshold — asking workers to financially support their union through dues payments when they don’t have to reap the benefits — can be a challenge.
Unions that fail to reach that 60 percent threshold, under the new law, must petition the state Public Employees Relations Commission to hold a recertification election. If they don’t, the union is decertified.
State records show that so far, more than 69,000 public employees in Florida — including all formerly unionized adjunct faculty (represented by labor union SEIU), blue-collar workers such as schoolbus drivers, and nurses employed in various state departments — have seen their unions decertified and their union contracts nullified as a result of unions failing to petition the state for recertification. This means any rights or benefits they were guaranteed under their union contracts are now non-enforceable.
Members of the FEA, affiliated with the National Education Association and American Federation of Teachers, are not among those affected.
“Educators in the state of Florida, whether it’s professors or graduate assistants, whether it’s instructional staff in our K-12 schools or our support staff in those schools, they have all made it clear they want their union, and they want their contract,” FEA president Andrew Spar told Orlando Weekly
“We cannot lose sight of the fact that this is an attempt to try to silence the voice and take away the rights and freedoms of people who work in our public schools and on our public college and university campuses.”
Full-time faculty at the University of Central Florida, city employees in Orlando, and K-12 public educators for the Orange, Osceola and
Volusia County public school systems are among the some 120-plus unions statewide that have overwhelmingly voted in favor of recertifying their unions since being required to do so by law.
A targeted assault
Teachers unions were widely perceived as the target of Florida’s 2023 anti-union law, as a frequent political punching bag of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. The Republican governor, who championed the 2023 law ahead of his unsuccessful bid for U.S. President, had previously described education unions as “partisan groups” and framed the legislation as an effort to “rein in out-of-control unions” in schools.
Notably, unions that endorsed DeSantis for office — representing police, correctional officers and firefighters — were largely exempted from the new regulations.
Taking a page from the TRAP law playbook, SB 256 imposed not only the burdensome recertification requirement, but also made it harder for union members to pay dues (by prohibiting dues payments through a paycheck deduction) and expanded the types of information unions are now required to report to the state annually. DeSantis dubbed it the “Paycheck Protection Act,” though its official title was the lesscatchy “Employee Organizations Representing Public Employees.”
Lawmakers last year adjusted an audit rule the law had imposed after police and firefighter unions lobbied its sponsors for changes.
curtail or otherwise undercut collective bargaining rights. It was backed by corporate-funded groups like the American Legislative Exchange Council — a conservative “bill mill” that feeds model policies to state legislators — and other explicitly anti-union groups.
“Pro-union forces can squawk and try to spin this all they want, but this is just common-sense legislation,” said Center for Independent Employees president Russ Brown in a statement following the law’s passage. Brown, who attended the bill signing, is a labor relations consultant who runs a firm specializing in “union avoidance” out of Satellite Beach.
The e-commerce giant Amazon, for instance, paid Brown’s firm RoadWarrior Productions more than $3 million last year to persuade Amazon employees not to join forces with the Teamsters.
The Teamsters Local 79 in Tampa, representing both public and private sector workers, lost half a dozen bargaining units (groups of workers represented by a union) last year as a result of new requirements under the amendment.
Clinton McCracken, president of the Orange County Classroom Teachers Association in Orlando, representing more than 13,000 educators, school psychologists and other personnel across one of the nation’s largest school districts, said he was “proud” of educators for choosing to support their unions.
“Teachers tell me time and again — they see that this union is fighting for them, and they know we accomplish far more together than anyone can alone,” McCracken told Orlando Weekly in a text. “At a time when public education is under constant attack and disinformation runs rampant, our strength is in our unity.”
About 98 percent of educators who turned out for the recertification vote in Orange CTA’s case last month voted in favor of keeping their union intact. Out of 3,923 voters who participated, records show all but 66 voted in favor of recertifying their union.
“Workers in Florida are reaching a tipping point — inflation is impacting families daily while bureaucrats and billionaires continue to amass wealth.”
“Nearly two years after a law that sought to destroy a worker’s right to have a union and millions of dollars spent by out-of-state, fringe, anti-worker groups, educators are standing firm and proudly voting to keep their local unions,” said Spar.
Touted as an effort to “empower educators,” the law is similar to anti-union policies enacted in other Republican-controlled states that seek to
protect the rights of nursing mothers on the job, and negotiate percentage-based raises for teachers.
A costly new law
Notably, the law has tripled the caseload of the Public Employees Relations Commission, the state agency charged with enforcing public sector union regulations.
Ahead of the effective date (when it was still Senate Bill 256), DeSantis gifted the Commission with a nearly $1 million boost to its budget, specifically to “implement provisions” of the law, according to budget documents. The Commission asked for even more funding this year in an effort to “streamline the increased workload associated with the implementation of Senate Bill (SB) 256.”
“Since the implementation of SB 256, the workload at PERC has increased significantly in all areas”their request, submitted last October, notes.
The Commission staffs just two election specialists, according to a state employment portal, and is led by two commissioners and a chairperson appointed by DeSantis.
One of the commissioners, Jeff Aaron, is a local attorney from Orlando who was recently implicated in a scandal involving DeSantis’ wife, Casey, and her charity Hope Florida. The other, Michael Sasso, is also local to Central Florida and is the husband of Florida Supreme Court justice Meredith Sasso (a DeSantis appointee).
FEA President Spar chastised the state for spending “millions of taxpayer dollars” on SB 256, which he describes as an “unnecessary and arbitrary law.” The cost of each recertification election conducted by PERC is split between the union and the public employer (e.g., a county or city government or school system).
Union leaders like Spar believe those funds could be put to better use elsewhere.
According to the FEA, which encompasses 168 bargaining units statewide, an average 94.3 percent of ballots cast through recertification elections so far have been in favor of unionization and educators preserving their union contracts.
“Workers in Florida are reaching a tipping point — inflation is impacting families daily while bureaucrats and billionaires continue to amass wealth,” said Spar. “The power to fight back comes from workers’ unions.”
In Orange County Public Schools, the union has made headway on establishing paid maternity leave and paid bereavement leave. The union has also fought to restore educators’ planning time,
“Students deserve public schools that are fully staffed and resourced with the programs and assistance they need,” Spar stated. “Educators should be able to provide for their families with only one job and not have to struggle to pay bills, buy groceries, or afford rent or insurance.” According to the National Education Association, Florida ranks near dead last in average teacher pay nationwide.
“We continue to stand strong,” said Spar,“Not just for educators and students across the state — but for our hospitality workers, machinists, postal service employees, teamsters, truckers and the more than 500 labor unions in the state with workers who ensure our communities are stronger because of their work.”
Some Florida Republicans attempted this year to further undercut public sector unions like the FEA by making it harder for unions to recertify through the election process. The quartet of bills filed didn’t make it past the finish line, however, as the Florida Legislature wrapped up most of this year’s policy work at the beginning of May.
The process of developing a state budget for the next fiscal year remains ongoing.

Nuri’s Tavern in downtown Orlando squares the circle with spectacular tavern-style pizzas
BY FAIYAZ KARA
Much like Susuru’s homage to midcentury Japan or Smoke & Donuts’ nod to the era of bellbottoms and Bob Barker, Nuri’s Tavern is purposefully steeped in nostalgia intended to evoke the fuzzy feels of yore. It’s a throwback to the places families would venture to once a week to feast on artery-thickening grub and gulp sodas from red pebbled plastic tumblers under the diffused glow of Tiffany-style lamps. Sportsball games would air on large projector screens, and Ms. Pac-Man beckoned the bored.
“Nuri’s is like modern Pizza Hut for millennials and I’m in love,” says my friend and fellow food writer Adam Erace, and he’s spot-on. Only the pies hearken back to the pre-personal-pan-pizza era, when the Hut’s hand-tossed, thin-crust wonders ruled the land. And the tavern-style pies devised by Team Market Group chef-scientists Jason Campbell and Nick Grecco are instant classics.
The duo behind the culinary success at Primrose Lanes, Taco Kat, The Wellborn and the soon-to-open June in Thornton Park, spent many a sleepless night experimenting and tinkering to perfect their tavern-style pizza recipe. “Over two months,” says Campbell. “We tested more than 20 dough variations between various flours, fat ratios, fermentation times,
temperatures and cook times.” And their hard work is our easy eating. The thin, crackly crusts of their 12-inch rounds are party cut — “so that customers can have a beer in one hand and a square in the other without having to put either down,” he says.
Perhaps most noteworthy is the consistency of the product. In three separate visits since their February opening, I’ve enjoyed my square-cut thin-and-crispies ladened with pepperoni cups, pecorino, mozz and basil ($19) as much as the punchy, and weighty, vodka streaked with red sauce and pesto ($18), a pie my pal described as “juicy.” My favorite has to be the pepperoni and jalapeño ($18), with its slather of ranch and sheen of sticky chili crisp. What really struck me was how this seemingly delicate crust has never once succumbed to the weight of the toppings. I, on the other hand, have. I’ve eaten a lot of Nuri’s pies and, so far, I haven’t met one I didn’t like. Even the white pie with its ricotta, black pepper and lemony zing ($17) proved as gratifying as the red pie with shreds of 100% beef meatball, giardiniera and oregano ($18).
Then there are the wings ($16). I’m not sure what kitchen sorcery Grecco and Campbell practiced to make these wings so unflappably crisp — they’re seasoned, lightly roasted, then
cooled before frying, I’m told — but they are absolute magic, whether coated in chili crisp, garlic Parmesan or buff-a-que. (That last is a saucy ode to Campbell’s love of dunking nuggets in buffalo, barbecue and ranch, so add a side of ranch.) Just as crispy are the fried eggplant sticks ($12), one of the many “snacks” on Nuri’s menu, which includes a chopped salad ($12) that gives off La Scala vibes and a “beef ’roni cups” plate ($10) served with pickled peppers and ranch that may have you reaching for daaaa-fibrillator.
That is, if you can find it amid all the cool knickknacks and memorabilia festooning this worn and woodsy downtown space. To say it’s replete with distractions would be an understatement, so don’t lose sight of the sweet prize — soft-serve in vanilla ($7) or pistachio ($9) with sprinkles, Oreo crumbles, caramel and pistachio add-ons. Then let loose on the distractions — the pinball machines, the photo booth, the wall art, the phone booth. Or park your seat on a maroon leather stool at the bar and down a stiff one or two.
The place is an absolute vibe, no doubt, but it’s the exceptional pizzas that are the lure. So eat your heart out, Pizza Hut. When it comes to tavern pies, no one out-pizzas Nuri’s. fkara@orlandoweekly.com

Experimental legends Mr. Quintron and Aaron Dilloway unite to take Florida
BY MATTHEW MOYER
From the misadventures of Bob Hope and Bing to the lysergic vision quests of Dennis Hopper and Peter Fonda, the unlikely duo road trip has been immortalized in popular American culture in ways both sublime and ridiculous. But the “Sunshine and Lollipops” sonic adventures of Mr. Quintron and Aaron Dilloway in Florida may very well eclipse all that has come before.
In the passenger seat you have Aaron Dilloway, perhaps the greatest modern American practitioner of harsh noise and an alum of the almighty Wolf Eyes, while behind the wheel is the king of New Orleans mutant boogie, instrument inventor emeritus Mr. Quintron. They’re playing a swing of Southern dates — with a very notable Florida focus — and the only thing that’s certain is that neither performer nor audience will emerge unscathed.
The tour, appropriately, kicked off on Friday
the 13th in Memphis and comes to Will’s Pub this Friday. Orlando Weekly got them on the horn for the exclusive lowdown.
For such a weird and epochal pairing, the reasoning behind the tour is disarmingly wholesome: friendship.
“We were both performing at our friend’s birthday party, and we got to talking about how it would be fun to go on tour together,” says Quintron. “We’ve known each other for 30, over 30 years now.”
“My high school band’s first concert was opening for Quintron’s old band in 1994 and then he invited us to play in Chicago. Our first out-oftown gig was through him as well, and then he recorded our album,” says Dilloway. “He’s a very influential and supportive person to me from very early on.”
“We ran around in the same circles for a long time, shared a label, and Miss Pussycat put her
first record out on Aaron’s label, Hanson. We’ve been sharking the same waters for a long time,” says Quintron.
“But we’ve never toured together,” marvels Dilloway. “We’ve been reconnecting a few times over the last few years, especially at the Wave Farm in upstate New York.”
That wasn’t just casual upstate summer socializing. Dilloway was at Wave Farm to stage his reimagining of the John Cage piece Rozart Mix in 2021, a sprawling visual and sonic installation centered around analog tape loops and multiple tape machines. Dilloway recruited Quintron as one of the tape ops. From that collaboration, the seeds of this tour were planted.
The “Sunshine and Lollipops” tour is very Florida-focused, in stark contrast to most itineraries for august experimental personalities. But for Quintron, it’s second nature.
“Miss Pussycat and I have a long history of playing a whole lot in Florida, largely because of its proximity to Louisiana. But we just fell in love with touring there. It’s kind of its own universe. We used to do whole tours of almost only Florida, as its own loop,” Quintron explains. “And the itinerary that Aaron and I are doing, I booked it as … an old familiar pattern. I personally love Florida in the summer. I love Louisiana, I love New Orleans in the summer too. There’s no festivals. The festivals are over. There’s less

tourists. I dig hot and sweaty. I get more work done like that. So yeah, I’m going where the birds are not flying.”
Despite that fond affection, Quintron hasn’t been in Orlando since a 2019 release show for an all-instrumental Mellotron record put out by much-missed former local enterprise Total Punk. (Quintron threatens to resurrect some of that material on this tour.) Dilloway, meanwhile, recalls playing Miami right before COVID hit and that’s about it. The week promises to be a proper reintroduction, with shows in Jacksonville, Gainesville, Miami and Tampa along with a side trip to Ringling’s Circus Museum in Sarasota, natch. Plus some ancillary mischief.
“I had this crazy idea that after every show, I want to go to a comedy club,” says Quintron of post-show festivities. “Kick back, you know, have a few brewskis and get a laugh or two. All very practical.”
But before they get a chance to relax, there’s the matter of the show. Dilloway’s live sets are some of the most searing and cathartic in the noise and experimental realms — period. Using arcane electronics and often a contact mic lodged in his mouth, this is free improvisation at its most wild and untethered and physical. Quintron — though without his creative foil, Miss Pussycat — is that rare mix of tech magus (with mostly self-designed or customized instruments) and consummate performer. Onstage, he’s a blur of hands flying over keyboards, feet stomping pedals, shouts and grunts and flying sweat. Intriguingly, the two hint at the possibility of blurring their two sets together.
“I never really know what I’m doing until I get to a space and just figure out how it sounds in there, see the layout of the place. Most of my sets are all improvised for the most part,” explains Dilloway. “We’ll see.”
“Mine is going to be familiar territory, but with a lot of new stuff, and things will be more stretched out and more improvisational. But not like a total departure, unless something happens to them,” says Quintron. “I hope there’s some crossover. When we were in upstate New York, we hatched the idea of crossing over at the end or the beginning or something. Some blur from one set into another.”
Failing that? You can buy a memento. “We have a tour tape that is a collaboration cassette that’s completely fucked up,” assures Dilloway. Expect fucked-uppery of the highest order one way or the other.

WATTS HATES YOU?
Find out for yourself at this young Orlando hardcore band’s tour kick-off
BY IDA V. ESKAMANI
“Ithink on this EP, as opposed to the last one, you can hear a bit more of that anger, especially within my vocals and my lyrics. I showed the lyrics to one of my friends and they told me that’s probably the meanest thing I’ve ever written.”
The state of the world is hardcore. And with their newest EP Slowly Conditioned, Orlando’s Watts is rising to the occasion. Released by Armageddon Records last week, the record erupts with a primal roar before locking into a rhythm that is both punishing and meditative. In short, the record rips, and is a natural progression for the band whose Retribution was chosen as Orlando Weekly’s Best Debut Album of 2024.
When we talked with Watts, vocalist Brielle Sandrine, bassist Chrissy McKeever, drummer
Dakotah Walker and guitarists Nickolai Rushka and Ash were gathered outside Audubon Park’s Stardust Video & Coffee. All members of Generation Z, Watts is born from an underground scene their band is actively shaping.
Watts’ origin story is interwoven with another fast-rising (and OW-featured) local band, 0 Miles Per an Hour. Though distinct sounding, the two bands share members, and a community of young artists putting Orlando on the map.
Sandrine shares the details, “I met them in high school, going to 0 Miles Per Hour shows, and being a fan … I was bored in college, wanted to do something and I was really getting into punk and hardcore, and so I said, ‘Might as well start a band.’”
“We were supposed to be more of a straight-up
punk band when Brielle hit us up,”says McKeever. Walker acknowledges the evolution towards hardcore was a collective one: “We all kind of got into heavier music together.”
That evolution seems to be the state of the nation, too. Hardcore continues to be driven by the underground, but increasingly storming the mainstream, with bands like Turnstile and Knocked Loose playing bigger and bigger stages. But for Watts, it all starts at home.“Heavier music has been becoming more mainstream in general, but I think Orlando has really made a name for itself,” says Walker.
Gearing up for their release show and a tour alongside daily obligations and the heaviness of the world is no easy feat. Watts are wholeheartedly DIY, a practice rooted in both principle and necessity that Sandrine knows well. “I’ve just been screenprinting and making buttons,” says Sandrine, “renting a van, figuring out where we’re staying.”
In addition to their release show at Will’s Pub, Watts will be criss-crossing the south with stops in Georgia, Louisiana, Alabama, Tennessee and Texas. McKeever notes their stress, but adds, “This is the first one we’ve booked ourselves … and we’re playing in a lot of cities we’ve never been to, which is really exciting.”
A sentiment shared by all bandmates was deep admiration for their peers. Throughout our conversation, they named several bands in the

hardcore scene as sources of inspiration.
“I don’t think if we hadn’t gone on that tour with Gasket that our last song on the EP ‘Tether’ would exist,” says Rushka. “That song is so Gasket-coded … I take a lot of inspiration from my friends and it’s a very inspiring thing to see other people thrive in music.”
With their music, the band veers from the personal to the universal. “Cathartic, meaning like, therapeutic, almost,” Sandrine says, “My lyrics come mostly from a very personal place, like how I’m feeling in a specific moment, how somebody’s made me feel, how the world around me is kind of evolving or changing.”
“I think there’s a lot of things to be angry about right now, in this country and in this state,” McKeever concludes, “so I think it could be a reflection of that.”

LOCAL RELEASES
The Left Joins is the relatively new guise for a not-so-new musician. Orlando’s Dewey Robbins got out of the game in 2002. While it was life that whisked him away, it was death (and plague) that brought him back. “The death of my ex-wife and the pandemic pushed me to finally explode inside,” says Robbins. “All that pent-up artistic denial … and songwriting was the way out of it.”
From that abyss, Robbins quietly emerged in 2022 with solo vehicle The Left Joins. Although his door of collaborators is ever-revolving, the one constant has been Marc Sirdoreus (Marc With a C), and it’s a relationship that goes far beyond this project.
“Marc and I met when we were students at a high school for ‘kids at risk’ in Lake County,” Robbins says. “I was a weird, poor kid on the spectrum without much family. I lived three miles from the nearest kid my age on a farm. I had dropped out of high school because my dad died and nobody knew what to do with people
but Sirdoreus is a very involved co-producer and guru. Besides Sirdoreus, The Left Joins’ new album, The Price of Everything, also features palpable contributions on keyboards, synthesizers, piano and drums by Orlando scene mainstay Chris LeBrane (Chris LeBrane’s Campaign, M.A.C.E., Universal Funk Orchestra).
Musically, The Price of Everything is The Left Joins’ richest, most realized work to date. Here, Robbins’ indie rock is draped in plush keys and worlds of atmosphere that paint a shaded underbelly beneath the pleasing melodies and easy movements.
Despite the unhurried air and even occasional humor, there’s an emotional heft that permeates the album. Though not oppressive, it’s ever-present. There are moments like the funereal “Mourning Dress” that are outright heavy. But the shadows are often more nuanced. Songs like “Artisanal Honey Tasting Menu,”“California Fade” and “328 U.S. 293 (Howey Test)” hover with the kind of beautifully doomed nostalgia that sounds straight out of The Virgin Suicides. It all amounts to an intriguing waltz of melancholy and allure.
The Price of Everything now streams everywhere.
CONCERT PICKS THIS WEEK
Cardiel, Hamiltons, M.A.C.E., Hutch: The punk dub sludge of Mexico’s Cardiel, the bare-knuckle rock of The Hamiltons and the revolutionary feminist rage of M.A.C.E. — all known quantities that already add up to a homerun bill. But the one band here you haven’t heard yet may just be the one that makes it a grand slam. This show will be the debut of Hutch, a new all-star group featuring members of outstanding Orlando bands like Sad Halen, Panther Camp and Dot Org. From the tantalizing little peek I’ve seen, no imaginable combination of these acts can prepare you for the heavy, hairy, blared-out riff beast that is Hutch. Look out for these guys.

The Orlando International Film Festival returns this year for four days, bringing 240 films from 45 countries to the University of Central Florida’s Downtown campus. Thirteen of the films are featured award-winners, including U.S. Short Documentary Award recipient and winner of two Emmys Beneath the Same Sky — co-produced by UCF journalism professor Rick Brunson and directed and produced by Christine Kane. On the final night, following awards and honors, there will be a screening of the PBS miniseries The African Americans: Many Rivers to Cross from producer Dr. Henry Louis Gates, Jr. in support of local public television. Kicking off on Juneteenth, each day of the festival features panels geared toward topics like African American filmmaking and AI animation to accompany the screenings of film submissions. The festival’s current preliminary schedule extends from early morning to 11 p.m. each night, so go wild and indulge your inner cinephile. UCF Downtown Campus, 500 Livingston St., orlandointernationalfilmfestival.org, various prices. — LF

FRIDAY, JUNE 20
You Must Dance
A community-driven rave is popping up in Orlando this weekend, bumping beats and support for a crucial local organization. The “Volume 1: You Must Dance” rave and music event happens Friday at Afterlife Studios. One hundred percent of the proceeds go to Orlando’s Peer Support Space, a peer-led nonprofit that aims to provide support, education and other free resources to those in need. The organization in 2024 opened Eva’s Casita, a respite center meant for adults dealing with non-urgent mental health challenges or who otherwise are in need of a temporary safe place to stay. It’s the first of its kind in Central Florida. Attendees can expect music from Adult Movie, VAXYN8, DJ Josef and more, as well as a raffle with prizes from drag legends Gala of Ghouls, Maxtro’s and Cozy’s Jewelry Shop, among others. 9 p.m., Afterlife Studios, 1412 Dauphin Lane, peersupportspace.org, $20.

FRIDAY-SUNDAY, JUNE 20-22
Spooky Empire
It’s just over halfway to Halloween, so that means it’s time for horror fandom expo Spooky Empire. This summer edition of the longtime con lacks any crispness in the air but brings big-time frights with their roster of guests this year. Highlights include legendary composer Danny Elfman (think Simpsons, Batman and Beetlejuice themes), Simon Pegg, Joe Bob Briggs with Darcy the Mail Girl, Malcolm McDowell and Chris Sarandon. There will be partial cast reunions of pulpy cult hits like Sleepaway Camp and Reanimator lined up too. There’s even a photo opp with Frank the Rabbit from Donnie Darko. And of course, film screenings, panels, live music, vendors and legions of cosplayers. DoubleTree by Hilton Orlando at SeaWorld, 10100 International Drive, spookyempire.com, $40-$299. — MM

Blue Bamboo Grand Opening
Nomads no more! Blue Bamboo Center will (re)open this weekend at their expansive new digs in the old Winter Park Library space. The team behind the Winter Park jazz institution has been hard at work for months now, renovating the old public library building on New England Avenue for its new life as Blue Bamboo Reloaded, a performance and rehearsal space and arts hub, all while continuing to host floating shows around Winter Park. Just a couple of weeks ago, the Orange County Commission awarded Blue Bamboo a $1 million grant to underwrite even more construction on the second and third floors that will begin in July. The grand opening features a concert from Bamboo stalwarts the Orlando Jazz Orchestra in their nearly 200-seat theater. Both of these shows are now sold out, but if you missed out on tickets, don’t sweat it. Other concerts are already popping up on the Blue Bamboo calendar through July. 5 p.m. and 7 p.m., Blue Bamboo Center, 460 E New England Ave, Winter Park, bluebambooartcenter.com, SOLD OUT. — MM

Thievery Corporation
When electronic hitmakers and international party-starters Thievery Corporation played Orlando last summer, they ended up soundtracking a wedding proposal. (She said yes!) So how will they top that feat? Who knows, but what is known is that this long-running D.C. dance collective led by Eric Hilton and Rob Garza brings a harmoniously united world of deep grooves, powerhouse vocalists and mood lighting to spare. Are they acid jazz or are they trip-hop? Only your frantically frugging feet know the answer for sure. 7 p.m., The Plaza Live, 425 N. Bumby Ave., plazaliveorlando.org, $59-$9. — MM

Meet Ziggy!
Ziggy (A567555) is 4 years old, and came in as an injured stray back in April. Fortunately for her, she has spent most of that time with an amazing foster mom. Her foster mom tells us that Ziggy loves attention and sitting on the couch with her head on your lap. She is medium- to high-level energy, and she loves playing fetch. She can get mouthy, but toys always fix that. She currently shares her foster home with two small dogs and three cats, which is incredible. Ziggy is crate-trained and basically house-trained. She has a sweet personality and would be a great addition to a family. Like most dogs that come to the shelter, we don’t know much about Ziggy’s past, but her time in foster care has provided us with invaluable information that we would not otherwise have known. If interested in adopting this gorgeous little tank, please reach out to us and we will put you in touch with her foster mom. Let’s get Ziggy a new home.
Orange County Animal Services is located at 2769 Conroy Road in Orlando, near the Mall at Millenia. The shelter is open 10 a.m.-6 p.m. every day except Wednesday, when it’s open 2-6 p.m. For more information, please call 407-8363111 or visit ocnetpets.com.
