Orange County’s positivity rate soars, Matt Gaetz’s ex-girlfriend testifies, Trump shades DeSantis and other news you may have missed »

Orange County COVID-19 positivity rate crosses 40%

Trump all but calls DeSantis a coward over coy response to COVID-19 booster questions

Orange County Mayor Jerry Demings revealed last week that the 7-day positivity rate in the county was north of 40%. The astronomical rate dwarfs previous records and is eight times as high at the one-time benchmark for reopening the county safely. Wastewater tests in Seminole County’s Altamonte Springs recently found a 70% positivity rate for those that were on the sewer system. “Four out of 10 people in our community are testing positive,” Demings said. “We have thousands of tests here that are being done here within this county, and that’s a staggering number.” Due to the outbreak, Demings encouraged masking and social distancing, though laws passed by the state of Florida have turned such moves into mere suggestions.

In an interview with One America News, Donald Trump appeared to take a shot at Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who has declined to say whether he’s taken a shot. The former president called out politicians who refused to go on record with whether or not they’ve received a COVID-19 booster, after DeSantis ducked a reporter’s question on the matter in late December. “I watched a couple politicians be interviewed and one of the questions was, ‘Did you get a booster?’ Because they had the vaccine and they’re answering like — in other words, the answer is ‘yes’ but they don’t want to say it, because they’re gutless,” Trump told OAN last week. DeSantis spox Christina Pushaw pointed out that Trump didn’t mention DeSantis by name.

Gaetz’s ex-girlfriend appears to be testifying in ongoing sex trafficking probe

CNN spotted Matt Gaetz’s ex-girlfriend arriving at Orlando’s federal courthouse with her lawyer, leading to strong speculation that she is testifying in the ongoing probe into whether the Panhandle politician. The woman dated Gaetz around the time that federal investigators are researching. Reports from NBC News claim the grand jury investigation is focusing on three charges: sex trafficking, violating the Mann Act (crossing state lines for the purposes of prostitution) and obstruction of justice. NBC also reports that she might be seeking an immunity deal, protecting her from prosecution in exchange for information about Gaetz.

Proposed Senate bill would allow businesses to block local ordinances

Local government officials raised concerns last week about a Senate proposal that would block enforcement of new ordinances when challenges arise over the projected impacts to businesses. The Republican-controlled Senate Community Affairs Committee voted 7–2 along party lines to approve SB 280, which would require counties and cities to produce a “business impact statement” before passing ordinances and to suspend enforcement of the ordinances amid legal challenges. During the meeting, Sen. Tina Polsky, D-Boca Raton, pointed to the potential power lawmakers could provide to block local ordinances. “A national corporation could veto an ordinance voted on by a duly elected official local body, in a majority vote, that had open public comment for an extended period of time,” Polsky said.

Florida senators suggest creation of a no-oversight $1 billion emergency fund for DeSantis

Senators revived a proposal to create a $1 billion fund that Gov. Ron DeSantis could use at his discretion during emergencies he declares in situations such as hurricanes, wildfires and the COVID-19 pandemic. The Senate Appropriations Committee backed a pair of bills (SB 96 and SB 98) sponsored by Sen. Danny Burgess, R-Zephyrhills, to set up an “Emergency Preparedness and Response Fund” so the governor wouldn’t have to wait for the Joint Legislative Budget Commission to convene to approve spending. Burgess’ proposed fund would take the money out of the state’s general revenue fund. orlandoweekly.com ● JAN. 19-25, 2022 ● ORLANDO WEEKLY

WHAT THE HELL IS SINEMA’S GAME? The Arizona DINO’s only North Star is her own ambition, but nearly threequarters of Arizona Dems say they’d support someone else in a primary BY JEFFREY C. BIL L M A N

For the life of me, I couldn’t figure out

Kyrsten Sinema’s game. Frustrating though he might be, Joe Manchin at least makes a kind of sense. He’s the last major Democrat standing in a state Donald Trump won by 40 points. Despite being a fixture of West Virginia politics, he was barely re-elected in 2018’s blue wave. If he runs again, he’s almost certain to lose in 2024; any chance of winning will require him to distance himself from the Democratic Party. Besides, Manchin has never claimed to be progressive or liberal. The Maserati-driving coal millionaire is only considered a “moderate” because the Republican Party has skewed our perception of what conservatism looks like. And by all accounts, he really does get high on his own can’t-we-all-get-along supply. The point is, he doesn’t need the Democratic Party. There’s nothing Chuck Schumer or Joe Biden can do to or for him. But they need him to accomplish anything. He holds the cards. Sinema is a different story. Sure, so long as she’s one of 50 Senate Democrats, the Arizona senator can block legislation the same as Manchin — and she has. She’s been an enthusiastic thorn in the administration’s side on raising the minimum wage, reining in Big Pharma, taxing the

wealthy, addressing climate change and, most recently, protecting voting rights from state-level Republican attacks. Of course, Sinema doesn’t say she opposes voting rights legislation. But she — like Manchin — refuses to contemplate tweaking the Senate’s filibuster to allow that legislation to pass in the face of a Republican blockade. Effectively, it’s the same thing. Unlike Manchin, however, Sinema has something to lose. Or, at least, you’d think she does. Sinema’s obstinacy hasn’t endeared her to her home state. Her approval ratings are slightly underwater. Interestingly, the bulk of her support comes from Republicans; most Democrats don’t like her. In fact, nearly three-quarters of Arizona Dems say they’d support someone else in a primary. Arizona is a just-right-of-center swing state. Sinema and Biden won it narrowly in 2018 and 2020, respectively. Politically, it makes sense to buck the party occasionally. But ostentatiously kneecapping the president’s agenda at every turn isn’t the only path to victory. Mark Kelly, the Democrat who won a special election in 2020 to serve the rest of John McCain’s term, is slightly underwater, too. However, depending on the GOP nominee, his race is con-

sidered a toss-up or leaning Dem. Sinema, on the other hand, is a dead senator walking. She’ll either get primaried in 2024 and lose, or she’ll run as an independent and lose. When given a choice, the Republicans who tell pollsters they approve of her performance — which is to say, they approve of her being a roadblock — will instead opt for a true believer. She must know that. Then again, former colleagues have described her as brilliant but self-absorbed, convinced she’s the smartest person in the room. Perhaps she thinks she sees something everyone else missed. It’s possible she’ll leverage her big-donor connections into a high-powered consultancy or corporate position when her term ends. On Twitter, Amy Siskind, the president of women’s advocacy organization The New Agenda, said an Arizona insider told her Sinema plans to run for president in 2024 “as the candidate of the middle. She has convinced herself this is her calling.” I wouldn’t put it past her, if only because it’s clear Sinema’s only North Star is her own ambition. Ideology is beside the point to her. She ran for office as a Green Party activist, and now she’s Fox News’ favorite Democrat. Her fealty to the filibuster makes sense when viewed through this prism. She can pay lip service to voting rights legislation while ensuring the bill never sees the light of day. So last Thursday, just before President Biden came to Capitol Hill to urge Senate Democrats to create a filibuster carve-out for voting rights, Sinema took to the Senate floor to announce that she would not. “We have but one democracy,” she said. “We can only survive, we can only keep her, if we do so together.” Surely, she’s not dumb enough to believe that. Surely, Sinema knows that the filibuster’s origin story is not as a protector of democracy but a defender of white supremacy — that before its use became de rigueur, white supremacists deployed the filibuster against civil rights and anti-discrimination bills in 1874, 1875, 1945, 1948, 1949, 1950, 1954, 1957, 1960, 1962, 1963, 1964, 1966, 1968, 1972, 1976 and 1984, as well as anti-lynching litigation in 1921, 1922, 1925, 1935 and 1938, as well as the creation of a monument to Black World War I soldiers in 1926, an extension of the Voting Rights Act in 1982, and the creation of the Martin Luther King Jr. Day federal holiday in 1983. Surely, Sinema knows the filibuster is being used to the same effect here — not to aid democracy, but to break it. And by refusing to junk it, she’s not only taking the country further from majoritarian rule but also — in this case — allowing Republican legislatures to make it harder for Black and Brown people to vote. That’s the opposite of democracy. It’s also the opposite of a functioning government. The modern-day filibuster produces a perpetual stalemate, which leads to a dysfunctional government. A dysfunctional, ineffective government erodes trust in institutions, which gives rise to conspiracy theories and radicalism — which leads to a more dysfunctional government. Sinema probably knows that, too.

Maitland’s Lil 500 Go-Karts was always a good time, right up to the very last day it was open BY JEN N IFER DE WI T T

he rev of a gasoline engine. The smell of burnt rubber. The exhilaration of drifting around a slick corner. The feel of hot humidity masquerading as wind. Every sense heightened and screaming for more. There was nothing better than a ticket to ride at Lil 500 Go-Karts, which closed permanently last week. I started going to Lil 500 in the mid-1970s and as a kid of 7, there was no better proof of a good time than experiencing the mid-summer burn of gravity down the galvanized steel humps and dips of the giant slide. If I close my eyes, I can almost see Randy Kline, then about 13, making sure we all stayed on top and made it to the bottom. Randy told me that he was up there wondering if he’d ever get a lunch break — or a bathroom break, for that matter. Randy’s parents, Ron and Mary Kline, moved the family to Orlando in 1967. They knew that Walt Disney World was going to be big for business, so they chose to give it a go in Central Florida. A hard worker, Ron had already owned multiple businesses, go-kart tracks among them.

The decision to build Lil 500 between I-Drive and Daytona International Speedway turned out to be a great one. On Feb. 1, 1968, a mini version of the speedway at Daytona, complete with pit location and the track turns, opened up as Lil 500 Go-Karts in Maitland. “From the start, Dad had a pretty simple philosophy,” Randy says: “‘Treat the women right and keep the ladies’ room clean.’” His mom, Mary, was always on hand to check whether that philosophy was being upheld. The pair was a true partnership until each passed away during the past year and a half. Randy Kline, who had worked at, managed and operated Lil 500 his whole life, retired just over a year ago. For the past 15 years people told him again and again to never close. “At the time I was 50, and I didn’t think we ever would close,” he says slowly. Lil 500 was a family operation through and through. Brother-in-law Robert Cirilo has been handling the operation of the track and maintenance of the 33 gokarts in the past year. Sisters Kathy (Kline) Cirilo and

Connie Kline both work with operations and bookkeeping. Randy’s son Robbie has a marketing and web design company that handles the Lil 500 website. Now most everyone is in their mid-60s, and the family has decided it’s time to close the business, slow down and retire. Asked if he wanted to share a sentiment with fans, Randy says simply, “Thank you. We would not have lasted this long if it weren’t for locals. There have been plenty of tourists, but locals have been it for us. We’ve been crying all week. This really hurts.” If you’re wondering what ever happened to that giant slide, Randy told me that galvanized steel has a coating but when it wears off, rust eventually erodes the metal. The slide was down to two operating lanes before they decided to remove it entirely for safety reasons. By then I was squealing around turns on the family track like a champ. Over the past six years, Lil 500 was the place I would go after a stressful week at work. Those laps were a magical way to blow off steam. My last time there, I won a victory lap. It was my 47th birthday and I had my party at one of the reserved picnic tables. We all rode for over an hour, eventually standing up on shaky legs, our hands tingling with adrenaline, throats dry from screaming, and noses full of tire smoke. We walked away grateful and sad it was all over. A lot like today. Thanks for the memories, Lil 500. Orlando loves you.

ART AT THE SPEED OF LIFE The Corridor Project Billboard Exhibition displays work by 30 Orlando artists high above local streets BY MATT HEW M OYER A N D J ESSI CA B RYC E YO U N G

rt has no limits. Driving, however, does — generally somewhere around 55 or 35 miles per hour, in Orlando. Municipal support of the arts (in the form of dollars, not vague approbation), also has its limits, but local curator Pat Greene isn’t one to sit back and accept that. The Corridor Project Billboard Exhibition is an idea he’s been thinking about for years, but it took some doing to get it — literally — off the ground. “When I was in my early 20s, I was out of the country for over two years. When I returned, I really noticed how many billboards we have in this country,” Greene says. “I was thinking it would be nice if some had art or something other than advertising. I thought it would be a great gallery.” The concept was concise, but far from simple. The biggest logistical challenge was connecting with a billboard company. He worked his way through a few points of contact before he was able to connect with someone who could help. “I went to my friends with the Downtown Arts District,” Greene says. “[DAD executive director] Barbara Hartley had a connection with Clear Channel.” With the “gallery space” secured, Greene dug again through his prodigious address book to recruit the nucleus of artists whose work would be displayed. Eleven artists were pre-selected, with the remaining 19 artists chosen from more than 270 applications through an open call facilitated by DAD. There’s no overriding theme to the art being shown, aside from being work that can be appreciated even while viewers are whizzing past on I-4. (Though not all the billboards line the highway; many are located on side streets. Completists can check orlandoweekly.com for a list of artists and locations.) “I couldn’t have too much nuanced art,” Greene admits. “The bill-

ORLANDO WEEKLY ● JAN. 19-25, 2022 ● orlandoweekly.com

board format is designed so that it should be more eye-popping than I might do in a conventional gallery.” Some artists submitted existing work, while others responded to the prompt. One Billboard Exhibition artist who understood the assignment, DNL HRS, says his piece is “a meditation on the car as a manifold symbolic object: On the one hand, a marvel of technological ingenuity, a source of entertainment … on the other hand, a symbol of urban sprawl and … impending climatological disaster.” Harris tells Orlando Weekly, “Orlando (and Orange County at large) is notoriously unwalkable, hostile to cyclists and pedestrians, and our public transportation is virtually nonexistent. It seemed appropriate to propose this piece be used in the billboard project, where it’ll be seen predominantly by people stuck in increasingly unendurable traffic jams.” (Harris’ piece, “Eschatology (Swan Song),” can be seen at 210 N. Goldenrod Road.) Orlando’s sophistication in the matter of public art has steadily progressed beyond safe, rainbow-lit, offend-no-viewer installations to more challenging work, although temporariness and/or virtuality seem to be the keywords for anything truly thought- (or emotion-) provoking. High points: Snap! Orlando’s augmented-reality City Unseen project and 2015-2017’s Art in Odd Places festival. These billboards, too are temporary, being installed throughout the month of January. But viewers can take a closer, standing-in-one-place look at the Corridor Project Billboard Exhibition when CityArts unveils the original works in their gallery for a month starting Thursday, Jan. 20. “The world would be a better place if art were everywhere,” Greene concludes. “More art and more trees make the world much more habitable, and that’s important.” arts@orlandoweekly.com

LA ESKINNA 1826 Saturn Blvd., Lot 4A 407-575-9156 facebook.com/la.eskinna $

BY FAIYAZ KARA OPENINGS:

PHOTOS BY ROB BARTLETT

A LOT TO LIKE La Eskinna may be parked in a barren dirt lot, but its Mexican fare has proper street cred BY FAIYA Z KARA

“Y

ou have arrived,” chimed my navigation system, yet La Eskinna — the food truck purportedly serving some of the finest Mexican street food in town — was nowhere to be found. Our destination, 1826 Saturn Blvd., indeed resembled the postapocalyptic landscape of some desolate, far-away planet: Around us lay nothing but dirt lots, chop shops, truck trailers and shipping containers. It might’ve felt more eerie if we weren’t still tripping from the nostalgic high of seeing 20 DeLoreans parked at the Florida headquarters of the DeLorean Motor Company off Satellite Boulevard. It was pretty far out. We gawked at the cars, took some pics and made plans to come back for a tour of the place (they even have a gift shop). While going back in time was a blast, being in the present had us a bit bewildered, which necessitated a call to La Eskinna for directions. Turns out they were parked at the end of Grazely Court (not the nearby Grazeley Court!), so make a note of that phone number — because you’ll

definitely want to experience the comida at La Eskinna. If you’re familiar with La Esquina, the trendy subterranean SoHo taqueria in New York, just know that La Eskinna is the literal antithesis of that culinary playground for models and celebs. But out of this black truck parked in an industrial wasteland are borne some superstar tacos ($2.49) — ruddy pastor, luscious barbacoa, plush asada and punchy pollo. They’re brought right to your car after you park in a designated spot, scan the menu on your phone and place your order with the friendly carhop. The hood of my car had never looked more appetizing as we scarfed an absolutely gorgeous spread of food amid the oxidized metal and mechanical surroundings. There was something very WALL-E about it all, and man did we clean up, but not before addressing the mystery in the “mystery steak” taco. Turns out the mystery lies in the sauce, fashioned from peppers, cheese, cilantro and onion, not in the meat. (It was asada.) The sauce is layered into a homemade corn

tortilla, painted with birria sauce and fried. Yes, I said birria, and yes, they offer birria tacos ($2.99). The flavors in the beefy broth may not be as complex as Hunger Street’s birria broth, but that didn’t make it any less luxuriant or warming. That said, I actually enjoyed the birria ramen ($6.75) more. When I first tried the birria tacos at Hunger Street, I used the leftover broth as the “sauce” in my spaghetti for lunch the following day, so birria ramen really spoke to me. In fact, I thought it said, “I can see the top of the JW Marriott from here,” but that was my chum. He was chowing down on a taquito loaded with spicy mayo, cotija cheese and crushed Flamin’ Hot Cheetos, pointing to the hotel’s cupola about three miles away. My eyes, however, were transfixed on the sparks flying out of the concrete mixer being welded about 30 feet from the food truck. “I shouldn’t have worn white,” I said, looking down at my shirt and seeing the splatter of birria broth. Then it started to rain. Surveying the uneaten dishes still on the bonnet, I hurriedly shoved peppery esquites ($3.99) and a vegan chorizo taco ($3.49) into my yap, followed by a gulp of horchata ($3.50). The meatless combo is one I’d easily order again. I packed up the churros ($3.99) and leftovers, and we drove off the lot. “We gotta come back,” I said to my pal as we turned onto Satellite Boulevard and approached the DeLorean facility. He glanced at the cars and nodded in agreement. “Yeah. Back in the future.” fkara@orlandoweekly.com

[ film + tv ] heady influence, as we looked to its cinematic techniques to understand efficient filmmaking. Like The Runner, Blood Simple was a film made under monetary and time constraints — yet it so eloquently tells the story. Horror films tend to rotate and I wouldn’t say they were particular inspirations for The Runner. David Cronenberg’s body horror films made a big impression on my young mind. I love Rabid and The Brood and, of course, Videodrome. Recently, I thoroughly enjoyed Ari Aster’s Hereditary and Natalie Erika James’ Relic. The Thing is classic. We just rewatched that the other night and you gotta love those practical special effects.

CHASE SCENE

The second-best thing to seeing synth-pop stars Boy Harsher live is checking out their new horror film, screening in Orlando BY MATTHEW MOY E R

ver since filmmaker John Carpenter sat himself in What was the initial burst of inspiration for wantfront of a synthesizer and worked out the now-iconic ing to create this film? JM: There were a couple things going on — a perfect soundtrack for his 1978 slasher classic Halloween, synthesizers and horror movies have been inextricably storm, if you will. We always had an idea of this solemn, linked. Director-turned-musician Carpenter managed an sorta desperate, fearful character in the back of our minds. accidental classic of the genre with his eerie electronic But we never had a moment to compile her narrative pieces. themes, and now the similarly synth-inclined duo Boy However, during the pandemic and subsequent isolation, Harsher are turning Carpenter’s paradigm on its head as suddenly we had time.

Simultaneously, Gus was working on a solo album, someThe Runner. what in response to live events being The last time Boy Harsher — the on hiatus.

Boy Harsher spoke to Orlando Weekly about favorite films Possession, David Lynch’s Lost Highway and the Coen brothers’ Blood Simple. Blood Simple in particular was a and making pictures and a new album simultaneously.

What’s your favorite memory of making the film? JM: It was a very stressful shoot — I think we were out of time and money even before we started! And it was during a strange weather pattern, bringing very cold temperatures and non-stop rain to Massachusetts in July. Despite the overwhelming conditions, it was unreal to be on set, watching the monitor and seeing this strange little thing come alive. We rented out this really funny motel which sits directly on the peak of the Whitcomb Summit, and every morning we woke up in a cloud. Literally, the place was always enveloped by this stubborn fog. I have fond memories of drinking coffee and going over the day and looking into this white void. Everyone was putting in their all and so excited about The Runner. It was just incredible. And at night, we’d sit on the porch and sip whisky and catch our collective breath. Your upcoming album serves as both your newest standalone record and the film’s soundtrack. How did you approach composing this music? GM: Well, the idea for the film came after five songs were recorded. The concept of the soundtrack was a way for us to tie all the songs together. We needed a way to incorporate the tracks with vocal features. It was a backwards filmmaking process. The final three songs were written specifically for the film, so this was definitely a different songwriting process. The track “The Ride Home” is the best example. We hadn’t filmed yet, but we had a pretty clear vision of how the scene would play out. It needed to be smoky and intimate, but also a little scary. We also knew the beats it needed to hit and how the track should evolve. We’ve never written a song with such strict parameters. Where did the idea to send the movie out on a little tour come from? JM: When we made the film, we assumed the project was destined for streaming in some sense. Maybe packaged as a livestream, always a virtual experience. We announced the film when we announced the record without any plans otherwise. But when we booked a Boy Harsher show in Los Angeles, our booking agent mentioned that this particular venue had a theater, and would we want to screen the film as well? It felt like this fun way to celebrate the record and the show, so we said why not? But then! Multiple promoters and theaters expressed interest. We were a little shocked. I mean, we love this movie and are proud, of course, but we did not realize there was that much interest in screenings. It’s amazing to us. Sadly, our live events have been postponed, but in this funny way the film gets to live on with this little cinema tour.

Streaming premieres you won’t want to miss by Steve Schneider PREMIERES WEDNESDAY: Heavenly Bites: Mexico — A new foodie series delves into some extreme Mexican dishes you’ll just love, even as they’re doing their best to kill you. And here you thought you had extricated yourself from that kind of tradeoff when you stopped dating. (Netflix) Juanpis González: The Series — Colombian comic Alejandro Riaño stars in a new show based on his character Juanpis González, a child of privilege learning to get along in the real world. “I will teach you, ordinary people, how to do fucking big business,” Riaño/ González promised via his Insta. Sorry, Britney, but you’re no longer my top follow. Free Juanpis! (Netflix) The World According to Jeff Goldblum — The back end of Season 2 finds Jeff investigating the lure of motorcycles, backyards and birthdays. It’s like an essay on “What America means to me,” but written by a guy who has to puke on his food before eating it. (Disney+)

(Netflix) Single Drunk Female — In a new series from some of the folks who brought us Girls and The Conners, an alcoholic in her 20s has to move back in with her mother and rebuild her life from the ground up.

Subjects covered run the gamut from Street’s gold medal wins to her arrest on charges (later dropped) that she assaulted her elderly father. Her persuasive defense: “Shit like that only happens in the luge.” (Peacock) Servant Season 3 — Even as new episodes of this psychological horror series finally drop, co-executive producer M. Night Shyamalan and the rest of his team are already assembling to shoot its fourth and final season. Costar Lauren Ambrose told TV Insider she still has “an inbox full of” new scripts to look at. But don’t worry, Lauren: Shyamalan doesn’t actually write the thing. So there’s no reason to put it off any further. (Apple TV+) orlandoweekly.com

TOP TEN

Local hip-hop legend Swamburger redefines his sound and keeps ’em guessing BY SARAH KIN BA R

rlando hip-hop legend Swamburger is poised to release a new solo album, Tenfold, released on his own AGDEPPA label through Dutchie Music in Miami. Orlando Weekly readers first got to know Swamburger (Swam to his friends) 21 years ago when he was featured in a 1991 cover story. The breakthrough artist had brought his talents from Chicago to Orlando and was quickly becoming a fixture in our local hiphop scene. Swam was a key igniter at Dante’s Jazz Garage, Firestone and Sapphire Supper Club’s crucial Phat-N-Jazzy nights. He went on to tour as an MC/producer in the hiphop supergroup Solillaquists of Sound, along with MC Alexandrah, poet Tonya Combs and producer/composer DiVinci. To this day, the four are inextricably linked. What Tenfold shares in common with the Solillaquists of Sound albums are socially conscious lyrics and sophisticated musical compositions. And, like all of Solillaquists of Sound’s work, the Tenfold listening journey is complex and demanding. You’d best not choose this as background music. “Life Commits,” the first track on Tenfold, is a worthy introduction to the album in that it accurately sets the tone: It is serious in making key points about lives lived under the heavy cloud of racial injustice, it is repetitive to drive those points home, and it is sonically glamorous, deftly weaving together a wide range of instruments and sounds to overwhelming effect. Coming with grown-up Aries energy, the opening lines of the first verse charge hard: I been around some years to demonstrate the benefits of Kicking it with jazz-governed personage Respect due to learning with an arsenal of permanent pillars Piercing through the surface of artificial services The next two tracks, “Heartless” and “Talk Is Cheap When Time Is Money,” are very much in the same vein as the first, giving the listener the impression that the album will steamroll ahead without much variety. This is false, as the opening notes of “All Hail Open Doors” amply demonstrate. Released as a single in September of last

year (and duly spotlit by Bao Le-Huu here in OW), the song conjures up the sounds of Chicago-born dance music while lyrically acknowledging the artist’s Orlando home. If seen as a vehicle for encouraging Black thought and communicating truths about the Black experience, the song operates in stealth mode, wrapped in club-friendly sounds. The influencer in Swam must be secretly delighted at the through of a club full of sweaty, dancing people moving to his thought-provoking words: Yo, how you don’t remember this? Banging ass beats with an African twist Don’t forget who you be! Not to the fans The person you can stand to see Now let’s talk about track six, “Innocent.” It’s exciting, passionate, hopeful, real. It all starts with a sample from a viral speech given by Star Wars actor John Boyega at a Black Lives Matter rally in London on June 3, 2020: “We have always been important. We have always meant something. We have always succeeded regardless. And now is the time. I ain’t waiting.” Swam is similarly bold. Did you make mention of the bigger picture? They declared war on your norms If you don’t want trouble, you can claim that you’re guilty Seize the threat to please your debt Selling yourself short tames the vision How you’re depicted can change the sentence But I’m … I’m innocent Most of the album’s beats were produced by Swam himself, a reminder that he continues to actively produce beats for rapper E-Turn and a select few artists handpicked for their vision, talent and alignment with Swam’s energy. Still demonstrating the leadership first seen two decades ago, Swam mentors young artists, offering advice liberally, if not beats: “If you’re a hip-hop artist, don’t just go to the hip-hop clubs. Go listen to jazz and rock. Go out and make a lot of new friends. Be everywhere and listen to everything. You go to a rock show and be like, ‘Oh, wow, that’s crazy.’ You’re in the scene, happy with these cats and know a lot of people. You connect

and stay in touch with these people. People don’t need to know that you’re an artist at that point. It’s not about you, it’s about the music. And when you do release something, people are like, ‘I didn’t know James does that.’ And they’re excited.” Swam’s thoughts on self-assessment indicate how ruthless he is with himself: “Behind closed doors, compare and contrast what you’re hearing with your own music,” he says. “Work on your shit. I’m saying, don’t be afraid to re-record. Create orlandoweekly.com

the greatest version of your music.” For devotees of the underground hip-hop scene waiting with bated breath for Tenfold to drop, there will likely be widespread agreement that this new album is the greatest version of Swam’s music — while for the uninitiated, it’s an opportunity to meet your unassuming Baldwin Park neighbor and hear him in a new light. Bet they don’t know that a king of conscious rap walks among them. music@orlandoweekly.com JAN. 19-25, 2022 ● ORLANDO WEEKLY

LOCAL RELEASES

Orlando turntablist DJ Dolo76 has a catalog you’d expect from most DJs. There are, of course, remixes — in his case, reinterpretations of songs by Nas, Cardi B, M.O.P., O.C. and the like. His solo debut last year — the Aliens-inspired Vasquez EP — showed instrumental tracks footed equally in classic hip-hop fundamentals and left-field sensibilities. Dolo76’s next album, however, will bring MCs back into the mix. Slated for a Feb. 4 drop on Loretta Records, Escobarian Hippos will feature mic time by a parade of luminaries from the 407. The guest roster includes Orlandoans MidaZ the Beast, Shinobi Stalin, Niko Is, Okito, TzariZM, MyVerse, JBiz, Tony Madness, Truly Def and Aahmean alongside others like the Artifacts’ El Da Sensei. The first official peek of that album just came with the recent release of lead single “Settle Our Own” with Arizona rapper Maze Overlay. On it, Dolo76 shows his cratedigger cred in a sonic mural crafted with a Yugoslavian record discovered in a Tampa thrift store and his own tight scratches using Pete Rock, Onyx, Pharoahe Monch and Method Man vocals. It’s a sweepingly cinematic setting that makes the song even more than the raps. The single’s now available on Bandcamp, as will be the album on Feb. 4. A new release by local punk label Ripping Records is actually a deep dive into Orlando punk history spotlighting 1990s hardcore group the Petofiles. The 16-track A Touch Too Much compiles recordings from various sessions to essentially be the band’s definitive collection. Half the material here saw obscure release ages ago — the last seven tracks originally released in 1996 as part of a

split tape with Chapter 13 and single “Hypocrite” was included in the 1995 Punkin’ Donuts Florida punk compilation. However, A Touch Too Much opens up with a full eight songs that’ve been unearthed and are just now seeing daylight for the first time ever. Raw, fast and rough, this discography is a native snapshot of quintessential hardcore roots. Even more than that, though, A Touch Too Much is an archaeological feat that makes the Orlando music archive a little more complete. It’s on Bandcamp as a name-your-price download.

LIVE PICKS THIS WEEK

Omicron continues to disrupt the calendars, this week postponing the Wu-Tang Killarmy show at the Abbey. So doublecheck the latest listings for anything you’ve planned, and mask hard if you head out. DJ Nigel John’s Funk Omakase: While touchstones like the grand P-Funk peacocks monopolize the popular conception, funk music is not a monolith. And this

new weekly DJ series by Nigel John — one of the city’s most literate, versatile and conceptual DJs — is dedicated to showing the full ambit of the genre. Expect a dizzyingly kaleidoscopic range of prefixes that includes disco, acid jazz, soul, Latin, Tropicália, rock, electronic, psychedelic, pop, Brit, metal, avant, free, Afro, hiphop, Middle Eastern and even yacht. So, just like you wouldn’t ask for a basic-ass California roll at an omakase dinner, don’t go shouting out requests for “Play That Funky Music.” Take the ride, you’re in good hands. (10 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 20, Lil Indies, free) Caravan Palace: This talented French band have carved a bright and lively niche on the dual pillars of swing jazz and modern dance music. It’s a mashup that’s made them reliable global party-starters. This Orlando stop will be the launch of their North American tour, so expect peak opening-night energy. (7 p.m. Friday, Jan. 21, House of Blues, $29.50-$75.75) Johnny Debt Prestage: He lives down near Lake Okeechobee now, but Jon Prestage is an erstwhile Orlando scene figure with credits in great local bands like So Help Me Rifle and Basements of Florida. Jon’s also known as half of the Prestage Brothers act with brother Ben (himself one of the state’s best-known oneman bands). As his own one-man band under the moniker Johnny Debt, Jon has dedicated himself to being a torchbearer of traditional Florida folk music. Come welcome the dude back and let him take you to the swamp with his old-style country and blues. (5:30 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 22, Dirty Laundry, free) baolehuu@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

“HARD FOR THE MONEY” I’m a gay man in my 40s. I very much love my husband, but two years ago we acknowledged that our desire for each other sexually just wasn’t there anymore. Thanks in part to reading your column for many years, we were able to have a calm conversation about whether we wanted to remain together in a companionate marriage or split up. We decided to stay together, and I’m glad we did. Sex was the thing we fought about most, and our relationship improved when we took that conflict off the table. My husband has a couple of fuck buddies that he sees, while I do most of my playing online. (We had this conversation at the start of the pandemic and playing online feels safer.) One of things I’ve able to explore in the last year is FinDom. I really get off on sending money that we can spare to younger, hotter guys and being degraded for my pains. Thing is, almost all the guys doing FinDom are straight. It’s often a part of their persona they play up: They’re hot straight guys demanding cash tributes from “pathetic fags” that they would never touch in real life. As much as I like having my wallet drained by a hot young straight guy calling me a fag, I would so much rather give my money to a hot and dominant young gay man. Why do so few gay young men get into this? Do young gay men realize how much money they’re leaving on the table? Could you please tell them? Chances Are Some Hot FinDoms Are Gay “I don’t know why there aren’t more gay FinDoms out there,” says Master AJ, “but I’m certainly not the only one.” AJ is a 23-year-old sexually dominant gay man who lives, works and drains gay subs all over the world from his home base in the Pacific Northwest. He first stumbled over the FinDom scene on Twitter when he was a kinky gay college student struggling to pay his rent. “I was working two jobs and while I wasn’t desperate, I was thinking about money a lot,” AJ says. “So, the idea of being in control, which I was already really into, and dominating someone by demanding cash from him that he’d earned? It was a huge rush.” Most male FinDoms go to such great lengths to emphasize how straight they are that AJ sometimes wonders. “There are no male Doms I’ve seen draining cisgender women,” Master AJ says. “So, if these guys really are straight, they would have to stumble on the gay FinDom scene or have the idea to start targeting a community they weren’t a part of in order to establish themselves.” And having seen how much pleasure so many straight-identified male

FinDoms get out of dominating gay men, “it seems possible that at least some of these guys aren’t being completely truthful about their sexualities.” Why would a gay or bi male FinDom claim to be straight? Because, as AJ points out, it’s going to make him more appealing to a significant segment of the gay finsub community. “There are a lot of gay men who fetishize being bullied by straight men,” AJ says. “And a lot of gay subs enjoy the idea that they are tributing to someone who will never be attracted to them. Which I find kind of laughable because being gay doesn’t necessarily mean a guy has a chance with me.” There’s also the issue of anti-gay slurs in FinDom play and how those slurs land. “Slurs get used a lot in the FinDom/kink scenes,” says AJ, “and they really can sound and feel different depending on the sexuality of the speaker.” Meaning, for some gay men being called a fag by a straight guy in a safe, controlled and consensual ways — like during a cash draining session — feels more degrading (in a sexy way) than being called a fag by another fag ever could. “But other gay men prefer gay FinDoms because they don’t like hearing slurs from straight men,” AJ says. Zooming out for a second … While it may be the case that a small handful of gay FinDoms pretend to be straight to attract gay subs, CASHFAG, I think something else is going on here. Namely, financial domination and other forms of online sex work have so lowered the “gay for pay” bar that the kind of straight man who wouldn’t have been able to profit off gay males lust 20 years ago — because he wouldn’t have sex with other men on camera for money — is now posting photos of his feet on Twitter, flipping off the camera and ordering his gay followers to pay “fag tax” for the privilege of looking at him. Just as straight, gay-for-pay porn stars managed (and still manage) to get off doing gay porn, there are straight male FinDoms getting off on what they do. “I know I enjoy draining cash from men I find unattractive,” AJ says. “Being dominant turns me on even if I’m not into the person. So, there could be straight male FinDoms out there who get some sort of sexual satisfaction from draining gay men but are still straight.” And it’s easy to see why a straight male FinDom who got a little turned on during an online draining session with a gay male sub might make a point of emphasizing his straightness — not just to rub his sub’s nose in it, CASHFAG, but to reassure himself. Still, even though there are more straight FinDoms out there than gay ones, AJ’s bank

account and spotlessly clean bathroom proves you don’t have to be a hot straight guy to be a successful FinDom. He’s always been very open about being gay, CASHFAG, and not only do gay male subs all over the world send him cash, but local gay male subs clean his apartment and run errands for him. “I’ve had a good experience with this,” AJ says. “It’s been both profitable and enjoyable and I’ve made great connections with so many people, including other gay Doms. I’ve always really liked talking to other gay men — whether they are submissive and into FinDom or just intrigued by my profile.” And if you really want to attract other gay men like him to the FinDom scene, CASHFAG, AJ suggests making an effort to find out gay FinDoms who are already online, diligently promote their content with likes and retweets and — of course — sending your favorite FinDom(s) all the money you can reasonably spare. “Because when you think about it,” AJ says, “tributing to a gay FinDom is like supporting a small queer business, and that’s something we should all be doing.” Follow Master AJ on Twitter at @CashMasterAJ1. Many years ago, as an apprentice cocksucker, I hooked up with a guy whose online profile indicated that he was uncut. I’m a Person of Foreskin myself, and I prefer uncut men, and his intact status was a selling point. Upon arrival, it was instantly clear that this gentleman had been circumcised. (Not that there’s anything wrong with that.) Not only was his dick cut, it was cut highly, tightly and very visibly. When I asked him about the misinformation, he got defensive. I think about this episode from time to time as I search for new and exciting cocks with which to do cock-related things. Every time I go in search of cock, without fail, I encounter men who claim to be uncut who are clearly cut. (I’ve enclosed a few pics sent by “uncut” men who do not, in fact, have foreskins!) The opposite has also happened: self-identified “cut” men who are unambiguously “whole.” But the latter is much rarer an orlandoweekly.com

occurrence than the shockingly common false-uncut self-reporters. Have the terms “uncut” and “cut” fallen from the lexicon? Are men that unfamiliar with their own anatomy? Is it a generational or regional thing? What’s going on? Unexplained Nomenclature Confuses Usual Terminology I suppose it’s possible that a small number of men out there don’t know whether they’re circumcised. But I think the obvious explanation is the likelier one: These men are telling you — a prospective new sex partner — what they think you wanna hear. A cut guy will tell you he’s uncut (or vice-versa) because he’s concluded you prefer uncut dick (or vice-versa). Then he sends you a photo of his actual dick, essentially asking, “Who you gonna believe? Me or your lying eyes?” You’re being gaslit with dick pics, UNCUT. You’re being dicklit.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): In October 2021, the Vancouver Canucks hockey team played the Seattle Kraken team in a Seattle arena. A fan named Nadia Popovici noticed that Canucks equipment manager Brian Hamilton had an irregular mole on the back of his neck — possibly cancerous. She found a way to communicate her observation to him, urging him to see a doctor. In the ensuing days, Hamilton sought medical care and discovered that the mole was indeed in an early stage of melanoma. He had it removed. In the spirit of this inspiring story, Aries, I invite you to tell the people in your life things they should know but don’t know yet — not just what might be challenging, but also what’s energizing and interesting. Be their compassionate advisor, their agent for divine intervention. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Canadian-Jamaican songwriter and recording artist Kreesha Turner isn’t a mega-star like Beyoncé or Rihanna, but she has had a successful music career. What’s the secret to her constant creative output? Here’s what she has said: “I love to surround myself with people who are the best at what they do. My idea is I want to be a sponge and absorb everything they teach, experience their energy, view them in their element and have the opportunity to ask them questions.” The coming year will be one of the best times ever for you to emulate her strategy, Taurus. And now is a perfect moment for formulating plans to make it happen. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Gemini author Lisa Cron says that when we’re telling a story, we should give each successive scene “new information, rather than rehashing things we already know. Never tell us the same fact twice. Because it’s boring and stops the flow of the story. Never tell us the same fact twice. Because it’s boring and stops the flow of the story.” In accordance with astrological omens, Gemini, I suggest you apply this counsel to everything you say and do in the next three weeks. Don’t repeat yourself. Keep moving right along. Invite novelty. Cultivate surprises and unpredictability. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Years ago, I reluctantly gave up my music career. To do so was sad and hard. But it enabled me to devote far more time and energy to improving my writing skills. I published books and developed a big audience. I’m glad I did it. Here’s another redemptive sacrifice I made earlier in my life: I renounced the chaotic pleasure of seeking endless new romantic adventures so I could commit myself to a relationship with one particular woman. In so doing, I learned a lot more about how to be a soulful human. I’m glad I did it. Is there potentially a comparable pivot in your life, my fellow Cancerian? If so, the coming weeks and months will be a favorable time to make a move.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Leo actor Claudia Christian has appeared in over 50 films, including many in the science fiction genre. She has played a variety of roles in movies with more conventional themes. But as for the sci-fi stuff? She says, “Apparently, I’ve been typecast: I’m a Russian bisexual telepathic Jew.” If Christian came to me for astrological advice right now, I would suggest that the coming months will be an excellent time for her and all of you Leos to slip free of any pigeonholes you’ve been stuck in. Escape the mold! Create niches for yourself that enable you to express your full repertoire. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): The coming weeks will be a favorable time to meditate on your job and your calling — as well as the differences there may be between your job and your calling. In fact, I regard this as a phase when you can summon transformative epiphanies about the way you

“Patience is also a form of action.”

earn a living and the useful services you provide to your fellow humans. For inspiration, read this quote from photographer Margaret Bourke-White: “Even while you’re in dead earnest about your work, you must approach it with a feeling of freedom and joy; you must be loose-jointed, like a relaxed athlete.” LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Author Marguerite Yourcenar wrote, “All happiness is a work of art: The smallest error falsifies it, the slightest hesitation alters it, the least heaviness spoils it, the slightest stupidity brutalizes it.” If what she says is true, it’s bad news, isn’t it? She makes it seem like cultivating joy and well-being is a superhuman skill that few of us can hope to master. Personally, I am not as stringent as Yourcenar in my ideas about what’s required to generate happiness. But like her, I believe you have to work at it. It doesn’t necessarily come easily and naturally. Most of us have never been taught how to cultivate happiness, so we must train ourselves to do it and practice diligently. The good news, Libra, is that the coming weeks will be an excellent time for you to upgrade your happiness skills. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): In 1891, a cultural organization commissioned Scorpio sculptor Auguste Rodin to create a statue of beloved French author Honoré de Balzac. The piece was supposed to be done in 18 months, but it wasn’t. For seven years, Rodin toiled, producing over 50 studies before finally finishing the piece. We shouldn’t be surprised,

then, that one of his mottoes was “Patience is also a form of action.” I’m recommending Rodin-like patience to you in the coming weeks, Scorpio. Yours will be rewarded long before seven years go by. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): “I am ashamed of confessing that I have nothing to confess,” wrote author Fanny Burney. Actor Jennifer Lawrence said, “I started to write an apology, but I don’t have anything to say I’m sorry for.” I nominate these two souls to be your role models for the coming weeks. In my astrological opinion, you are currently as immune to karmic boomerangs as it’s possible to be. Your guilt levels are abnormally low. As far as I can determine, you are relatively free from having to answer to the past or defend your actions. How do you plan to make maximum use of this grace period? CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): “New truths become evident when new tools become available,” declared Nobel Prize-winning medical physicist Rosalyn Sussman Yalow (1921–2011). She was referring to developments in science and technology, but I think her idea applies to our personal lives, too. And it so happens, in my astrological opinion, that the coming weeks will be a favorable time for you to acquire new tools that will ultimately lead you to discover new truths. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Self-help teachers and New Age gurus are fond of using metaphors about opening doors. They provide a lot of advice that encourages us to knock on doors, scout around for doors that are open just a crack, find keys to unlock doors and even kick down doors. I will not be following their lead in this horoscope. In my opinion, the coming days are an excellent time for you to heed the contrary counsel of author Paulo Coelho: “Close some doors today. Not because of pride, incapacity or arrogance, but simply because they lead you nowhere.” Once you carry out this assignment, Aquarius, I believe you’ll start finding interesting new doors to open. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): In 2017, Piscean film director Jordan Peele released his debut film, Get Out. It was a success with both critics and audiences. A year later, Peele became the first Black screenwriter to win the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay. As he accepted the Oscar, he said, “I stopped writing this movie about 20 times because I thought it was impossible.” Personally, I’m glad Peele didn’t give up his dream. Here’s one reason why: He will serve as an excellent role model for you throughout 2022. As you reinvent yourself, Pisces, don’t give up pushing ahead with persistence, courage and a quest for what’s most fun. freewillastrology.com
