SPONSORED ’Tis the season for trading in your swim shorts and tank tops for elasticbanded sweatpants and loose-fitting hoodies. From Thanksgiving to Christmas, we are in a full sprint to get all of the ho-ho-home-cooked meals we can cram into the festive timespan. This year, elevate your festive feast with one secret ingredient that will enhance your delicious dishes … beer. Whether you are battering, baking, brining or blending, beer can do a lot to enhance your food. It moistens cakes, adds texture to a fish fry, and adds flavor to brined poultry. With the help of Chef Angela Faunders of the Winter Park Publix Aprons Cooking School, we’ve outlined four tips for adding beer to some delicious recipes. Chef Angela’s first rule of thumb when cooking with beer: “If you don’t drink it, don’t cook with it.” If you don’t enjoy the taste when you drink it, then you probably won’t enjoy the taste in your food. The flavor of your beer should enhance your meal, not overpower it, so it is important to select a style of beer that best fits your dish. “You want the flavor of the beer to compliment the flavor of the dish.” When making a thick stew or wintery roast, full-bodied dark stouts and porters work well. The notes of chocolate and barley will enhance a hearty meal and add to the thick texture. Since pilsners, lagers and some ales are crisp and on the lighter side, they complement seafood’s flavors well, especially in a beer-battered fish fry or in sautéed mussels. The bitterness of hoppy beers can balance the salinity of a dish, so choosing a pale ale for beer-brined pork chops or turkey would be ideal. Of course, we can’t forget the fan favorite beer-simmered bratwurst, for which ales and lagers are traditionally a great choice, but you really can’t go wrong with what you use. Fruity beers or framboises make excellent ingredients for dress-
ings to add to your favorite salad. “You can make an easy vinaigrette by using Purple Haze, pureed raspberries, shallots, garlic and honey,” said Chef Angela. “If you are making a dessert, choose a beer with high alcohol.” High in alcohol means high in sugar, making these beers perfect for desserts. They can add moisture to cakes, or even make delicious syrups when reduced. If you can find a stout with a high ABV (alcohol by volume), even better! Stouts are typically darker in color with coffee, chocolate and nutty flavors, so it is a desirable ingredient to add to your baking. “When deciding what to pair, go with what you like.” If you don’t like the beer on its own, chances are you won’t enjoy it even with the best-paired meal. There is really no steadfast rule here. If you enjoy it, drink it. It also makes perfect sense to pair your food with whatever beer you used to prepare it. Most recipes only call for 12 ounces or less of beer, so you may as well finish the six-pack while enjoying your meal! However, if you are really stuck and want to knock a food and beer pairing out of the park, Chef Angela has one last tip: “When in doubt, tacos go with any type of beer.” Season’s greetings and happy eating! For more delicious tips and tutorials, sign up for a Publix Aprons cooking class – or give one as a gift this holiday season. If you want to fa-la-la-fall face-first into a delicious beer-based recipe, visit Publix Aprons Cooking Schools’ Trent Walker at Orlando Beer Festival and try the Braised Pork Belly with Sticky Asian BBQ he created in collaboration with Ten10 Brewing Company.

Readers react. Last week we reported on a vote by the Orlando City Council to allow motorized rental scooters in the city. Lime announced their decision to remove its bicycles from the city once the scooters were approved, meaning there could be scooters on Orlando streets as soon as early 2020. Even though the Uber-backed company’s bikes were always a warning that Orlando would inevitably become another scooter city, the recent vote takes the effort one giant leap forward. @Eric Fetter I really like the idea of the city being progressive about transportation. As a person that travels downtown from time to time on my own bike, I have always been conscious of my own infractions as I go from bike-friendly lanes to areas that require one to choose between being honked at, harassed and possibly splattered by cars, or traveling on the sidewalk, which technically is not allowed. When I do ride on the sidewalk, I am willing to go super slow or walk my bike. Limebikers are often less concerned with these nuances, and the idea that you can’t legally drunk-drive a bike is lost on the lawbreakers and enforcers alike. It is freaking Dodge City out there sometimes. I can’t imagine the scooters improving the situation.
@Cathy Cashier That’s an accident waiting to happen. I certainly hope when they swipe their card that’s an agreement that they are responsible for themselves. @Lamont Whitmore Speaking from Atlanta who recently introduced the scooters, they are absolutely amazing for getting around short distances, but I hope that they take their time and study the other cities and their regulations and rules before bringing them to the city. Because starting them up only to have the suburbans who want to come and fake-live the city life complaining all day until harsh rules are put in place is seriously obnoxious. @David Foxx And as in Tampa when the battery dies, careless users will leave the scooters anywhere and walk away. Rode through town the other day and they were scattered everywhere. Good luck, Orlando! Hopefully your plan and execution is better than Tampa’s. @Fernando Garay Not a fan of scooters, but I can see how, as a company and a city, the scooters have a lot of points in their favor over the bikes. Less space, less maintenance, less cost. I mean think about it, they are way more convenient whether we like them or not.

Orange County sheriff’s deputy forcefully arrests child, Florida county denies library subscription to the New York Times, and other news you may have missed. »
Video captures Orange County Sheriff’s deputy’s rough arrest of a middle schooler: Last week Orange County Sheriff’s Office deputies were recorded detaining a Westridge Middle School student. One school resource deputy brutally clasped the back of a girl’s head, clenching her hair and her headwrap to yank her head back. The girl was arrested but only briefly detained, then returned to a parent. In a press conference, Orange County Sheriff John Mina said he was “outraged,” and that the deputy, later identified as Harry Reid, was immediately removed from the school pending termination. Mina also announced the internal investigation of the incident will be passed on to the state attorney to determine if criminal charges are warranted.

Florida county denies library subscriptions to the New York Times because it’s ‘fake news’: Citrus County commissioners unanimously denied a request from their local library to spend $2,700 annually on digital subscriptions to the New York Times, because the paper is “fake news.” During an Oct. 24 discussion, all five members of the commission agreed to reject the funding request, which, purely coincidentally no doubt, was also the same day the Trump administration announced that it was canceling federal agencies’ subscriptions to the Times and the Washington Post. “Do we really need to subscribe to the New York Times?” asked Commissioner Ron Kitchen Jr., while the others laughed. “I actually was going to say that,” said Commissioner Scott Carnahan, who added, “Fake news, I agree with President Trump.”

Republican state senator and Democratic representative file bills requiring Bible classes in public schools: Sen. Dennis Baxley, R-Ocala, filed a proposal that would require high schools to offer elective courses in the study of the Bible and religion. The bill (SB 746) was filed for consideration during the 2020 legislative session, which starts Jan. 14. Rep. Kimberly Daniels, D-Jacksonville, filed an identical bill (HB 341) last month in the House. The bill, in part, would require courses providing an “objective study of the Bible, including, but not limited to, a course on the Hebrew Scriptures and Old Testament of the Bible; a course on the New Testament of the Bible; and a course on the Hebrew Scriptures, the Old Testament of the Bible, and the New Testament of the Bible.” Also, the bill says courses would be required to follow “all state and federal laws and guidelines in maintaining religious neutrality and accommodating the diverse religious views, traditions, and perspectives of all students in the school. A course offered pursuant to this section may not endorse, favor, or promote or disfavor or show hostility toward a particular religion, religious perspective, or nonreligious faith.”

Hoping to stop its leadership bleed, SeaWorld chooses fifth CEO since last year: Though business has been on the upswing for SeaWorld recently, there have been few C-suite waters as choppy as their CEO position. Since February 2018, there have been four different bosses at the company, and the addition of newly announced CEO Sergio Rivera makes five. SeaWorld announced the hiring of the 57-year-old former hotel executive last Monday in the hopes that he can stop the leadership bleed. The company signed Rivera to a three-year contract paying $600,000 per year plus stock options. orlandoweekly.com

OK, BLOOMER Democrat establishment panic, smacking down MAGA, and the Bloomberg trial balloon BY JE FFREY C. BILL M A N
T
here are worse billionaires on the planet than Michael Bloomberg. Donald Trump, for starters (if you grant that he’s really a billionaire). Also, Sheldon Adelson and Rupert Murdoch and the Saudi ruling family and whichever Koch brother is still above ground. The three-term Republican New York City mayor has at least committed significant resources toward fighting climate change and for gun reform. And he made his mint – $57 billion – by founding a financial services firm that turned into a mass media company, not from pillaging impoverished countries or poisoning politics or by virtue of inheritance. Still, it takes a special kind of entitlement to look at modern politics and assume that what Democratic voters really want is a 78-year-old patrician to swoop in and save them from themselves. Learn how to read a room, Mike. Last week, Bloomberg – who toyed with
a run for president earlier this year before backing out – filed paperwork to get on the Democratic ballot in, of all places, Alabama. His spokesman said Bloomberg was worried about the current candidates’ prospects against Trump. This is an odd assessment for any number of reasons. Begin with the fact that the top five Dems are consistently beating Trump in polls. A recent Washington Post/ABC News survey had Joe Biden, Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders besting him by between 14 and 17 points. To the degree the Democrats are weak, it’s in the Rust Belt states whose outsize say in the Electoral College cost Hillary Clinton the White House in 2016. But who thinks white working-class Michiganders are clamoring to vote for Mike Bloomberg? Beyond giving some pundits and New York Times columnists a jolt in their nether regions, Bloomberg doesn’t have a built-
in constituency. He’s Biden without the Obama shine and the Scranton roots. And he’s basically wearing a “Kick Me” sign for Warren and Sanders. As best I can tell, Bloomberg has one narrow path to the nomination. The Alabama primary takes place on Super Tuesday, March 3, alongside primaries in 15 other states, including North Carolina, Texas, Virginia, Colorado and California, which, presumably, Bloomberg will also enter. By then, Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina will have voted, and the Democratic field will have been winnowed down. The bet, then, is that Biden will falter, and there will be no moderates left to face Warren and/ or Sanders. Enter Bloomberg and his billions, the last stand of the centrists. There are easier and more effective ways to accomplish this goal. Bloomberg could have, for instance, dropped $100 million into a super PAC to prop up Amy Klobuchar – a moderate who actually could win Rust Belt votes next year – without blinking. Instead, he’ll do it himself. Obscene wealth is a hell of a drug. To be clear, there’s no guarantee Bloomberg will follow through on this trial balloon. I rather doubt he will. The initial polling doesn’t show him blowing the doors off the joint – shocking, right? – and very rich, entitled men don’t like to lose, especially on a public stage. But Bloomberg’s candidacy reflects a larger concern among Democratic donors and officials. They can see the writing on the wall: Biden is a weak front-runner. If nothing changes, the Democratic nominee will either be a cantankerous 78-yearold Vermont socialist or a 70-year-old Massachusetts policy wonk, both of whom have pushed the party leftward on health care, immigration, wealth taxes, climate policy, criminal justice reform and a host of other issues. For the Dem party’s operatives, this is risky on many fronts. Deep pockets might stop giving, scared off by the higher taxes they’d have to pay to fund the Green New Deal or Medicaid for All. Selfishly, the power structures from which they derive their incomes might erode in the coming realignment. The media will paint initiatives to curtail climate emissions and expand health orlandoweekly.com

care access – and asking rich people to pay for it – as Leninism 2.0. But mostly, it’s that Democrats have spent the generation since Ronald Reagan living in fear of their own shadows, assuming that the cards are stacked against them and that the best choice is the safest choice, the least divisive choice, the grown-up choice, even as the GOP reoriented itself radically rightward and its inmates took over the asylum. This risk aversion is understandable: Better qualified Democratic candidates lost to intellectual welterweights George W. Bush and Donald Trump while winning the popular vote. So if the American people want a generic, inoffensive Democrat – Any Functioning Adult 2020! – to defeat Trump, what the hell, give it to them. This is the unspoken calculus behind the Biden campaign. It’s the calculus behind the Bloomberg tease, too: 2020 isn’t about big ideas. This election is about a reset, about creating a post-Trump space in which the Republican Party can come to its senses, about making democracy function again. This message is tailor-made for the centrist pundit, and perhaps for swing voters in a general election. But it’s focused on the wrong question: The key to 2020 won’t be wooing a shrinking pool of undecideds – people know whether they like Trump or not. The key is turnout: Trump’s zealots will vote. Will Democratic voters mobilize? Maybe restoring sanity is a good-enough incentive; maybe getting rid of Trump will do the trick, regardless of who replaces him. But even if the Democrat prevails, this election-as-reset theory is built on the fantasy that Trump is the cause and not a symptom of the GOP’s embrace of white nationalism and authoritarianism, and that eliminating him will fix it. More important, however: The world is burning right now, and climate change and inequality won’t wait for the GOP to get its shit together. What Bloomberg – and, I suspect, Biden, too – is about to discover is that progressives are tired of being told to make nice while Republicans jump off a cliff. This election isn’t about accommodation. It’s about bludgeoning the MAGA right into irrelevance. feedback@orlandoweekly.com NOV. 13-19, 2019 ● ORLANDO WEEKLY

TRUMP TAPS TWO
Former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi added to impeachment team and Apopka preacher Paula White named White House aide BY S OLOMON GUSTAVO A N D A N A C EBA L LOS , N S F
I
n the span of less than a week, Trump reached into Florida’s very real swamps to tap Apopka televangelist Paula White and former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi for his impeachment team. Trump says White led him to Jesus Christ, calling her his “God whisperer.” On Nov. 1, Trump called on White to join his administration as head of the White House Faith and Opportunity Initiative. White is a preacher for New Destiny Christian Center, a largely black megachurch in Apopka. After becoming Trump’s personal pastor, Trump became a recurring figure in her sermonizing and Trumpisms began flying from her pulpit. “Make America safe again,” she said in a prayer, while Trump was campaigning for president. In a Nov. 5 conference call with other Christian leaders – a collective recorded prayer that White calls the One Voice Prayer movement – White asked God to protect Trump from “any persons, entities that are aligned against the president.” Then, Trump added Bondi (as well as former Treasury Department spokesperson Tony Sayegh) Nov. 6 to the White House communication staff to help with messaging during the impeachment inquiry. Like White and Trump, our former state attorney general and Trump go back a bit. In 2013, the Donald J. Trump Foundation gave $25,000 to Bondi’s campaign. Bondi accepted the sizable donation while investigating alleged fraud at Trump University. Shortly thereafter, Bondi announced Florida would not be suing Trump on behalf of the many Floridians who filed complaints against Trump University since 2008. A Florida prosecutor found “no reasonable suspicion” that Bondi did anything wrong, but the circumstances still led many to accuse her of taking a bribe from Trump. Florida’s attorneys general are
term-limited to two consecutive four-year terms, so Bondi became a free agent in 2018. She joined Ballard Partners, a lobbying firm, whose founder Brian Ballard, is a self-professed Trump guy. For Trump, it looks like Florida is the gift that keeps on giving. – SG
As recreational marijuana becomes possible in Florida, state lawmakers ask Oregon for nuggets of wisdom: Facing the possibility that Floridians could be asked next year to legalize recreational marijuana, a House panel Nov. 5 turned to Oregon to learn more about the economic, environmental and health impacts the state has faced since authorizing adult pot use four years ago. Chris Gibson, the executive director of the Oregon-Idaho High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area, told the House Health & Human Services Committee that Oregon has seen millions of dollars in tax revenue and a spike in illicit drug use, and is currently dealing with an overproduction of marijuana. Gibson went on to discuss how the recreational market has at times seeped into the black market and been linked to illicit marijuana sales in other states, including Florida. Oregon legalized the use and possession of marijuana in 2015 through a state ballot measure approved by 56 percent of voters. Since 2016, the state has collected more than $275 million in marijuana tax receipts, according to data from the Oregon Department of Revenue. The majority of those sales came from recreational consumers, Gibson said. In Florida, an overwhelming majority of voters signed off on medical pot in 2016, and proponents of two separate proposed constitutional amendments that would legalize recreational marijuana are trying

to get the measures onto the 2020 ballot. Several of the state’s medical marijuana operators are backing what is dubbed the “Make It Legal Florida” initiative, which would allow adults over 21 to have up to 2.5 ounces of pot for personal use. – AC
Orlando state legislators are pushing a bill to protect workers in the extreme heat: Study after study has found that heat stress leads to increases in occupational injury, heatstroke and other ailments for outdoor workers. That’s the reality for many Central Florida workers, people who contribute labor that society needs to continue to functioning, work that feeds us and makes life better for everyone. “It’s just common sense to help the workers out there to be safe, and that employers have the requirements they need,” said Sen. Vic Torres, D-Orlando. Torres and state Rep. Carlos Guillermo Smith, D-Orlando, announced Heat Stress Day at the state capitol in coordination with the Farmworker Association of Florida, immigrant coalition We Count, the Florida orlandoweekly.com

Center for Fiscal and Economic Policy, and South Florida Interfaith Worker Justice. The bill, SB 513, which will be presented first in a Florida House hearing and then in a Senate hearing, would require employers to provide laborers working in the heat with water, breaks and ample shade. Torres said the heat-stress legislation group is also open to creative ways for workers to cool down, like taking a page from high school football programs that provide players with a body-size tank of water to dunk themselves in to lower their body heat. Heat stress has been an ongoing problem for warm-weather laborers, but climate change, said Torres, has exacerbated the issue. Days are longer and hotter, he noted, and the summer weather in Florida keeps extending further into the fall. Despite the high temperatures, we all still expect workers to show up and fix our roofs and streets, pick our produce and mow our lawns. “Sometimes, people take it for granted,” said Torres. “We gotta be cognizant and we have to offer whatever relief we can.” – SG feedback@orlandoweekly.com NOV. 13-19, 2019 ● ORLANDO WEEKLY

his is our fifth year throwing Orlando Beer Festival, and we think it keeps getting better. Last year, we expanded into a section of Festival Park that allows us twice the space for local, national and international breweries to show off their work. More than 50 breweries are represented in this year’s lineup, serving up more than 200 varieties of beer, including the festivalexclusive Orange Avenue Creamsicle IPA from Broken Strings Brewery. But if you’re only coming to Orlando Beer Fest for the beer, you’re missing out on half the fun. After a few (dozen) beer samples, you’re probably going to want to eat, and that means hitting up our food truck
pod. There’s something for everyone this year, with favorites like Hot Asian Buns, A Lo Cubano Kitchen, Over Rice and La Empanada joining newcomers like the Pass Progressive Cuisine, Not Your Mama’s Pancakes, Gooda Fooda Fries and Sugar Rush Marshmallows. And if you missed out on a VIP ticket (not that we love you any less), you can still come into the food truck area to grab lunch before the General Admission entry time If beer isn’t your thing – or if you just enjoy laughing in the face of danger – our wine tasting experience returns. VIP guests also get access to a cocktail zone if you want to take things to the next level Saturdays in the fall, of course, mean college football, and we refuse to leave
sports fans stranded. That’s why we’ll have a big inflatable screen set up showing the day’s matchups, along with interactive inflatables for those suffering from an alcohol-inspired bout of confidence in their own athletic prowess. Our live music lineup this year features ska from Victims of Circumstance, classic rock covers from the Wilted Chilis and the rootsy duo JunoSmile – comprised of Jessy Lynn and Joseph Martens. VIP guests get to enter at 12:30 p.m., but we suggest getting there early even if you have a GA ticket; the line routinely wraps around the corner every year. The current forecast, as of press time, predicts a high of 70F, and we can’t wait to share a beautiful day with you. orlandoweekly.com

LABEL ART BY SEAN JONES FOR ARCHETYPE BREWING
THIRST TRAP
Go ahead, judge a beer by its cover – these local artists design visual interpretations of indie brewers’ creations BY JE SSICA BRYCE YOU N G
W
ith so many brews to choose from, indie breweries are looking for anything to make their products stand out. As creativity in brewing explodes, so too has packaging – beautifully designed bottle and can labels are everywhere, making every beer cooler a mini-art gallery. Orlando-based designer Clark Orr (of Johnny Cupcakes and Hellcats Inc. fame) has created a slick set of can labels for DeLand brewer Persimmon Hollow Brewing Co., whose traditional-with-atwist style mirrors his own distinctive, vintage sign-inspired aesthetic. While they’re impressively tight to look at, the PHBC cans present much like a mass-market can – readily recognizable
as a beer, packed with all the fine print you’re used to and clearly bound for the big time. Local artist Sean Jones, whose art is better known under his nom de plume Humid Daze, gets a lot weirder in his work for Archetype Brewing. If beer labels are the new album covers, Jones is the Roger Dean to Orr’s Reid Miles. Each of Archetype’s beer releases is inspired by a Jungian archetype, and with names like Cowboy Poet, Timely Surrender (shown right) and Unruly Mystic, it’s a joy to see labels as hazedout and mysterious as the beers they’re wrapped around. Archetype co-counder Steven Anan says, “When it comes to labels, we tell Sean to ‘do your thing and go nuts,’ and
he never disappoints.” Jones, who works as a graphic designer at Maven Creative in his 9-to-5 life, says he was more of an illustrator and a painter when he was younger. “Humid Daze was more of a reason for me to stay up with my personal work,” Jones says. We can only be grateful that he did and that Archetype was open to popping the top like this; with Jones visually interpreting each brew and Anan doing the same in haiku form, each Archetype can is like a fine-art object. “I was a little nervous they weren’t going to be open to that, the point is usually to get your name out there,” admits Jones, “but they were really open and generous.” jyoung@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

STAR POURS
The beers tapped at Galaxy’s Edge don’t come from a galaxy far, far away, but they aren’t locally brewed either BY SETH KUBERSKY
R
emember that iconic Star Wars scene where the Rebellion’s heroes celebrated their victory over the Empire with a six-pack of craftbrewed IPA? Yeah, we don’t either. We’ve watched inhabitants of a galaxy far, far, away quaff blue milk and sip snake stew, but unless the upcoming Rise of Skywalker features a raging kegger in the ruins of the Death Star, we’re unlikely to ever see a Jedi chugging beer onscreen. Of course, that minor detail didn’t stop Mickey from including brew taps behind the bar of Oga’s Cantina when building Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. The new Walt Disney World watering hole, like the identical Disneyland version that opened a few weeks before it, features several specialty beers with spacey names at astronomical prices. Although the cantina’s party atmosphere – which is overseen by an animatronic droid DJ who leads the crowd in Gungan drinking chants – can be out of this world, beer connoisseurs may be surprised to learn how farflung these drafts’ origins actually are. While Universal contracted with the homegrown Florida Beer Company to create three unique exclusive brews for the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, Disney sources each of Oga’s drafts from a different well-known brewer: • Bad Motivator IPA is an India Pale Ale (ABV 6%, IBU 50) from Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. It’s made with Galaxy and Comet hops that make it taste like a Pale Ale with tropical fruit tones. • White Wampa Ale is a classic Hefeweizen (ABV 4.5%, IBU 20) wheat beer made by Ballast Point Brewing Co. Named after the snow monster that Luke disarms on Hoth, it tastes of bananas and citrus. • Gold Squadron Lager from Blue Point Brewing Co. (ABV 5%, IBU 18) has lavender and plum flavors, and pays tribute to the doomed Y-Wings in Episode IV. Note that this beer is also available outside Oga’s at the Docking Bay 7 quick-service restaurant. • Gamorrean Ale from New Belgium Brewing Co. is a red ale (ABV 5.8%, IBU 42) named after Jabba’s pig-like guards; it’s like a Fat Tire with grapefruit and caramel. • For the gluten-free, Angry Orchard supplies Spice Runner (ABV 5%), a spicy dark red hard apple cider that references Han Solo’s smuggling career. The bad news for saga savants seeking to unlock Untappd badges is that each 16-ounce pint at Oga’s will set you back $12.25 to $14.25. (If you want to sample all four beers, the $85 flight is served in 4-ounce “Rancor teeth” that you get to take home.) The worse news is that reservations for Oga’s may be booked online up to 180 days in advance – with a $10-per-person penalty if you no-show – and walk-ups are only accepted sporadically, since the standing-room-only bar is usually shoulder-to-shoulder. For serious drinking without the sci-fi shtick, make a beeline to the Baseline Taphouse near the entrance to Galaxy’s Edge, where you’ll find a much bigger selection of California micro-brews for significantly fewer bucks. skubersky@orlandoweekly.com

month, the city of Orlando completed the acquisition of the Plaza Live concert venue in the Milk District, which will be leased back to the Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra for $1 per year for the next quarter-century. The Philharmonic launched their 2019-2020 Focus Series at the Plaza on Oct. 21 with a concert of Handel and Brahms, and music director Eric Jacobsen will take listeners “inside the score” of Berlioz’s Symphonie Fantastique at the Bob Carr on Nov. 17 (see page 45 for details).
The Orlando Ballet, along with Opera Orlando, recently reached an agreement with the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts to perform in the new Steinmetz acoustic hall once completed in 2020. In the meantime, the dance company is on the verge of opening the doors at Harriett’s Orlando Ballet Centre, their new multimillion-dollar headquarters near Loch Haven Park. The Orlando Fringe Festival has announced that it will house three theaters at the new facility next May, relocating the previous “Red” and “Purple” stages, and replacing the defunct “Black” venue with “Teal.”
Believe it or not, it’s been a decade since Disenchanted! (originally titled Bitches of the Kingdom) debuted at the Orlando Fringe Festival, eventually going on to acclaim off Broadway and around the world. To celebrate their 10th anniversary, former “Oops Guys” Fiely Matias and Dennis T. Giacino reunited with Orlando actresses Michelle Knight and Andrea Canny – plus a bevy of Broadway performers – to record a cast album of their Disney Princess-skewering musical. You can purchase your own copy (poison apple not included) at disalbum.com.

The Floridabilt takes over Church Street’s historic railroad depot with nightlife ambitions and a strong historical backbone
THE FLORIDABILT OPENS SOON IN THE CHURCH STREET RAIL DEPOT | PHOTO BY SETH KUBERSKY
I have fond memories of visiting Church Orlando’s Eve event includes a teaser of what Longo and whose seminal centennial books about Orlando form the Street Station as a tourist in the 1980s and early ’90s, before Bob Snow’s groundbreaking grown-up theme park was grounded by competition from Disney and Universal. But as a resident, I confess to barely visiting the block since the long-gone days of Terror on Church Street and Rosie O’Grady’s Good Time Emporium. Currently, Lincoln Property Co.’s 34-story mixed-use tower and rebranding of the Orchid Garden as the “Bumby Arcade” looks to reinvigorate the district. But right across the SunRail tracks, another venue is being revived by some familiar faces from the Orlando theater community. And based on my recent preview of their under-construction Floridabilt and upcoming Orlando’s Eve party, they may have what it takes to lure me back to Church Street again. If you attended an ASL-interpreted show at the last Orlando Fringe, you probably enjoyed the expressive performance of Mandy Longo, whose work with Signing Shadows won a well-deserved Fabby award at the 2019 Orlando Fringe Festival’s closing ceremony as well as a Best of Orlando Writer’s Pick from Orlando Weekly. But when she isn’t in a theater translating for the hearingimpaired, the former speech pathologist is also owner of Around Orlando Tours and now, co-owner of the Floridabilt. Around Orlando Tours, formerly known as Mosquito County Tours (after Orange County’s original name) was founded a year ago, offering walking tours of downtown and Winter Park highlighting the food, drink and history of each city. The Floridabilt, located in the historic train station that most recently housed the short-lived Ferg’s Depot sports bar, will serve as both the headquarters of Around Orlando Tours and as a bar with live entertainment, once its doors open later this month. And if you can’t wait until the yet-unannounced grand opening, this Saturday’s
her team have been toiling on. At the moment, the Floridabilt – whose name is a nod to the nearby Wells’ Built Museum and Angebilt building – is still a construction zone, but last week I got to sneak behind the chain link fence with Timothy Williams, who is Around Orlando’s tour manager, and the writer/ director of Orlando’s Eve. Williams is well-known in Orlando as an actor and director (having done both for the just-completed Playfest at Orlando Shakes), and is an adjunct professor of theater at Valencia College, as well as acting coach for Opera Orlando’s Youth Company. With such a full plate already, I’m surprised Williams found time to take on these new titles, but he sounded energized by this project’s potential while showing me around the unexpectedly spacious property. Shortly before I arrived, plaster tiles covering one wall had been removed, revealing the original brick fireplace beneath; Williams and director of operations Rob Soviero (previously executive director of the Milk District) excitedly shared the discovery and discussed using it as a backdrop for the corner’s cabaret-sized stage. That fireplace will be only one of many vintage elements around the handsome space – which will also include an expansive patio and outdoor performance area – that hearkens back to the historic building’s roots. “[Longo] wanted to restore it to what it might have been at the turn of the century,” Williams says. “We’d like to provide a venue that is as much about atmosphere as it is about hanging out and having a good time. The backbone is the historical aspect of it, and that’s why we chose this building to house it all.” On Saturday, Nov. 16, Floridabilt’s team is hosting Orlando’s Eve, an immersive site-specific adventure through downtown inspired by historian Eve Bacon,
company’s tours. The event begins at the Orange County Regional History Center and ends with a 1920s speakeasythemed soiree at an undisclosed location, where Tymisha Harris (as Josephine Baker) and the Brown Bag Brass Band will entertain during dinner. In between, guests will interact with live characters while decoding a secret map, which may lead to a look inside the Floridabilt itself. Orlando’s Eve “really encapsulates what Around Orlando tours is all about,” says Williams, explaining that “not only are the guests being entertained, they’re also being educated.” General admission to the event costs $75; $95 VIP tickets include a pre-party performance featuring Tod Kimbro and open bar. Visit mosquitocountytours.com for details. “All of the districts of Orlando are starting to have identities of their own,” notes Williams, referencing Ivanhoe and College Park, “developing this sense of community that Orlando hasn’t had in a long time. And in my opinion the one district that hasn’t caught up with the others is downtown.” With plans to participate in a street-wide holiday celebration this winter and seemingly limitless possibilities for bringing intimate art forms into the venue, Longo’s and Williams’ ambitions for Around Orlando to play a role in reversing that trend feels infectious, especially when standing with him atop the Floridabilt’s second-story ramparts, surveying the brick-lined streets below. “We want to see it have a neighborhood-friendly vibe, where the thousands of people who live here can come and relax and learn about the history of their city, which is actually diverse and exciting,” Williams proclaims. “We want downtown Orlando to have a truly unique historical vibe.”

Prices are steep, but Makani’s fare celebrating Egypt’s contributions to world cuisine are top-notch. In addition to street food staples like carb-heavy koshary, spiced kebda (beef liver) and hawawshi (pita stuffed with minced beef), there are plush kebabs, earthy stews and syrupy sweets.

Moroccan food stall inside Apna Bazaar on South OBT offers regal fare in kingly portions, most notably the “Royal Couscous” with snappy merguez sausage, lamb and chicken. Savory pastries like chicken bastilla are an absolute must, as is the lamb tagine. Harira soup with khobz bread and eggplant zaalouk makes for memorable meatless dining.

DUE AMICI
College Park gets yet another Italian restaurant, and this one is good enough to compete with the rest of the trattorias and pizzerias along Edgewater Drive.

WORLD’S MAGIC RESTAURANT
The city’s first (to our knowledge) Saudi restaurant serves Bedouin-influenced rice-and-meat staples as well as Saudistyle Indonesian fare. Both gareesh, a savory chicken porridge topped with ghee-slicked caramelized onions, and remarkably thin and crisp beef den den make superior starters. Saudi rice dish mandi lamb and the Indonesian platter piled with everything from beef rendang to mysterious pasta with red sauce are more substantial offerings. The satay sizzles. Ending with passable kunafa is your choice. Open daily 5–9:45 p.m. No alcohol is served. 7044 International Drive, 407-203-3330; $$ CONTINUED ON PAGE 34

HUMBL
The pizzas steal the show at this slick new vegan joint in deepest Windermere. The focaccia-like crust stands up to vegetable toppings (sogginess being a classic vegan pizza fail) and those toppings are fantastic: The perversely named “Meat Lovers” has roasted cauliflower, shiitake “bacon” slices, fennel-farro “sausage” crumbles and dollops of macadamia-nut “ricotta.” Also of positive note: perfect fries, an Indian-spiced grain bowl and thick-asa-concrete milkshakes. 5845 Winter Garden Vineland Road, Windermere, 407-349-8800; $$
KAIZEN IZAKAYA
It’s out with the old and in with the new as the old Amura on Church Street gets a long-overdue rebrand. You’ll find all the trendy pan-Asian trappings of the modern izakaya – ramen, Korean fried chicken, bao, donburi – but quality cuts of Japanese fish as well. The moriawase gets you 14 pieces for $35, but don’t overlook Korean staples like that KFC and a comforting bowl of kimchi yakiudon noodles. Open daily. 54 W. Church St., 407-316-8500; $$
CAFÉ 34 ISTANBUL
The city’s only 24-hour Turkish restaurant means kebabophiles can indulge in some of the most luscious, lip-greasing meats any time of day, though raki drinkers will have to take a break from the hours of 2 a.m. to 7 a.m. Much of the action takes place on the restaurant’s sprawling patio and let’s just say it’s a mesmerizing scene, especially after 10 p.m. Things are a lot more quiet inside. 8255 International Drive, 407-6017712; $$
HOURGLASS SOCIAL HOUSE
Straddling the line between café and food hall, the Hourglass Social House offers a diverse array of food options – Mexican, Vietnamese, French pastries, vegan handhelds – not to mention beverages aplenty. Foxtail Coffee gets the morning crowd jacked, while the market stocks a nice selection of wine, beer, kombucha and juice. Bottomless mimosas are served on weekends from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Open daily. 2401 Curry Ford Road, 407-930-7308; $$
JAM-ENG
Jamaican staples like jerk chicken, oxtail stew, curry chicken and fried whole snapper far outshine the mainly drab offerings of the British side of the menu (baked salmon, cottage pie, ploughman’s sandwiches). The vibe is laid-back and service can sometimes operate on “island time.” Open daily for lunch and dinner. 65 N. Orange Ave., 321-424-5062; $ n

Christian Bale and Matt Damon in Ford v Ferrari PHOTO COURTESY TWENTIETH CENTURY FOX
WINNING FORMULA Ford v Ferrari is high-octane entertainment BY CAMERON MEIE R
F
ord v Ferrari, director James Mangold’s tale of the Ford Motor Company’s attempt to build a faster race car than Ferrari in the 1960s, is a rare, high-octane blend of art and entertainment. Excluding Steven Spielberg, they just don’t make movies like this anymore. Probably the most visually impressive film ever made about auto-racing, Ford v Ferrari is the type of picture you would have expected real-life racecar enthusiasts Paul Newman and Steve McQueen to have made together. Newman starred in 1969’s Winning (about the Indianapolis 500), and McQueen did 1971’s Le Mans (about the famous 24-hour French race). But when the legendary actors finally got together in 1974, they made The Towering Inferno. (I’m still burning up about that lost opportunity.) Fast-forward 45 years, and two equally accomplished performers (Matt Damon and Christian Bale) are picking up where Newman and McQueen should have left off: on the track at Le Mans. In Mangold’s new action-dramedy, Damon stars as Carroll Shelby, an automotive designer and engineer forced to hang up his racing helmet after being diagnosed with a heart condition. Realizing Shelby’s talent, Ford
executives ask him to lead their new racing division, which they hope will unseat Ferrari as the champions of Le Mans. But Shelby needs a driver, and though his friend Ken Miles (Bale) is a loose cannon, the two understand each other. And no one is better behind the wheel. It’s an unlikely partnership, but defeating Ferrari has become a vendetta for Henry Ford II (Tracy Letts), after his bid to buy Ferrari was rudely snubbed by the company’s founder. It’s a fun, riveting story of revenge, ambition, pride and friendship – made more remarkable because it’s mostly true. Mangold has been helming films since 1995 but is often forgotten in discussions of today’s most versatile directors. With Kate & Leopold, Walk the Line, 3:10 to Yuma, Logan and now Ford v Ferrari, let’s hope that oversight is corrected. But filmmaking, like racing, is a group effort, and Mangold’s pit crew is finely tuned, from the writing team of Jez Butterworth, John-Henry Butterworth and Jason Keller, to cinematographer Phedon Papamichael, to editors Michael McCusker and Andrew Buckland, to production designer François Audouy, to the countless special-effects creators, who blend traditional effects with CGI.

Listing names might not make for a sexy film review, but Ford v Ferrari represents the height of cinematic sexiness, and time should be taken to thank everyone. The performers are due commendations too. Damon is superb, and if the 2019 acting field weren’t already bursting with potential Oscar nominees, one would declare Damon a lock for a nod. Though Bale’s performance is a tad broad, it’s impossible to look away, as usual. But it’s the hilarious and heartfelt Letts, better known as a playwright, who is my early favorite for best supporting actor. And in the spirit of universal congratulations, praise should also go to Caitriona Balfe as Miles’ wife, Noah Jupe as his son, Ray McKinnon as Shelby’s friend and coworker, Jon Bernthal as Lee Iacocca and Josh Lucas as the closest thing to a (humorous) villain. Like Le Mans, this film is loud and long, so pick a theater with great sound and projection.

BY STEVE SCHN EID ER
OPENING THIS WEEK: Charlie’s Angels Remember when the big strategy for introducing Idris Elba as 007 was going to be establishing that the British secret service employs several “James Bonds,” a fake identity assigned to agents of various ethnicities? I tell ya, even in this day and age, a brother can’t have nothin’ to himself. But whether or not that idea ever gets used, it’s provided an assist for the makers of the latest Charlie’s Angels, who want us to believe that multiple teams of Angels are now operating across the globe, each with its own squad leader named Bosley. It’s nice that David Doyle still gets to feel irreplaceable, though I doubt Bill Murray is experiencing any particular lump in his throat. The Bosleys in this iteration include Elizabeth Banks, who also wrote and directed the flick. Hey, her Pitch Perfect 2 was the most successful outing ever by a first-time filmmaker, so according to Hollywood’s devilmay-care, risk-taking ethos, she now gets to helm any picture she wants – as long as it’s part of an existing franchise aimed predominantly at women. The Angels Banks has assembled are Kristen Stewart, Naomi Scott and Ella Balinska, who come across in the promo materials as somewhat, shall we say, butch. So maybe the real innovation here is gender fluidity? Personally, it just makes me wish Kate McKinnon had gotten to play all three roles, in some kind of Ang Lee-approved split-screen deal. Then again, I felt the same way about Playing With Fire. (PG-13)
The Good Liar I’m getting tired of the myth that there are no good roles for women. There are seven of them every year, all played by Helen Mirren. Her latest project casts Mirren as a wealthy widow targeted by a suave con man played by Ian McKellen … and that’s some fine acting right there, because he totally seems like a Derek Jacobi man. The real twist, though, is that the titular creep finds himself developing genuine feelings for his mark. Wow, an attempted financial holdup that turns into a meaningful emotional experience? It’s like a typical marriage in reverse! (R) The Report At last, a respite from the parade of multiplex dramas about the awful toll the war on terror has taken on our well-meaning American snipers. The Report focuses instead on the efforts of U.S. Senate investigator Daniel Jones (Adam Driver) to expose the CIA’s use of torture as an interrogation tool. Visit orlandoweekly.com, and our Cameron Meier will tell you what he thought of the movie. I mean, he’ll come right out and volunteer it. You won’t have to put bamboo splinters under his fingernails or anything. (R) The Warrior Queen of Jhansi India’s rebellion against the British provides the historical background for this dramatic portrait of Rani Lakshmibai (Devika Bhise), the 19th-century army general whose insurrection earned her the plaudit “the Joan of Arc of India.” The film’s supporting cast includes Derek Jacobi – or, as Ian McKellen refers to him, “the Helen Mirren of wank matter.” (R) orlandoweekly.com

THE MANY MOODS OF MR. QUINTRON Quintron and Miss Pussycat bring their phantasmagoria back to Will’s Pub BY NICOLETTE SHURBA
O
ver the last 20 years, certified weirdos and creative pioneers Quintron and Miss Pussycat have toured the world with their subversive rock shows that incorporate musical inventions, maracas, and eccentric, hilarious puppet shows. The New Orleans-based couple, Robert Rolston (Quintron) and Panacea Theriac (Miss Pussycat), represent a sound and style in diametric opposition to the mainstream world of nightclub entertainment – they’ve both worked closely with museum organizations to showcase their artistry and are avid inventors. Through the debut of and tour for Quintron’s latest album, Erotomania – performed on the remarkable and spellbinding Mellotron, and released this week by Mind Meld Records (run by Total Punk’s Rich Evans) – the duo is undertaking a fall East Coast tour with a welcome return to the Sunshine State. When Evans approached Quintron to release a record on the Mind Meld imprint, a place for artists to try things they’ve perhaps never committed to wax before, Quintron had the Mellotron in mind. “Rich has turned out to be like one of the best label people I’ve ever, ever worked with,” says Quintron, praising Evans’ hard work, honesty and personality. “He is intelligent; he’s got a little genius gleam in his eye, and this is a match made in heaven.” Quintron and Miss Pussycat’s creative endeavors are driven by a love of performance and the stories we manifest, particularly through sympathetic magic, or the idea that the images we create in our
minds can appear in our reality, “Sometimes I feel compelled to tell a story and you need conflict to tell a really fun story, but I always try to be careful and have a happy ending because sometimes the puppet shows come true, and so you’ve got to be very, very careful and have a responsibility,” shares Miss Pussycat, revealing later that the tactile component of puppetry is what attracts her to the art form. “I really like puppetry in that you are supposed to play with these things. You’re supposed to put on a show and touch them, and that is something I really like about puppetry. They’re not useless objects. They’re magical tools, and I really like that.” “The biggest influence on all of my music is the actual instruments and the amplifiers themselves and what they want to do and what they’re best at doing in combination with my ability,” explains Quintron, along similar lines. Before a residency with the Robert Rauschenberg Foundation and a move to New Orleans’ Ninth Ward, Quintron was a 16-year-old creating drum contraptions in his garage, and Miss Pussycat was developing a passion for storytelling through puppetry at the Christian Puppet Youth Ministry. “I started doing puppetry as a kid. I was in the Southern Baptist Church in Antlers, Oklahoma, and I was part of the Christian Puppet Youth Ministry,” explains Miss Pussycat. “It really incorporates everything that I’ve ever studied. I studied art in college, and I was like, ‘Oh no, puppet shows

are like the ultimate project.’ They’re threedimensional collage. It’s a sculpture that can talk. It’s also kind of like channeling or speaking in tongues.” Erotomania, recorded on the enigmatic Mellotron – a keyboard instrument with the playback method of magnetic tape – is a groovy six-song instrumental album. It’s a funky experiment in euphonious soundmaking and idiosyncratic intrigue through the wonder of this instrument. “Erotomania is satisfying my instrumental, mellow, psychedelic, exotica personality,” Quintron says. He signals to the composition and arrangement of songs on an entirely instrumental album as his favorite part of making the record. “It made me a better player to release a 100 percent instrumental organ record. I really, really had to bone up because your fingers are the ones doing the talking; there’s no yelling involved.” The couple, with Quintron playing much of his organ set and Miss Pussycat showcasing a puppet show about ancient Egypt and Cleopatra, is on tour with seditious musician and performance artist Three Brained Robot. “I love him, he’s great, he’s so special. And so, every night I look forward to seeing him perform and see the crowd’s reaction,” beams Miss Pussycat. We recommend you do the same. music@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

BY B AO L E - H U U PENETRATION: A TRIBUTE TO THE STOOGES | PHOTO BY JIM LEATHERMAN
This week, one of today’s great-
est pied pipers makes a long-awaited return and some Orlando legends pay live tribute to some Detroit ones.
DAN DEACON, WILL’S PUB, NOV. 6
There are many reasons to get hyped for a Dan Deacon show. First, unlike most electronic artists, he’s one of those unicorns who are famous for their live shows, which are spectacles that have less to do with any big-budget production than all-out crowd participation and pure fervor for the music. Moreover, the Baltimore cult hero seldom comes to Orlando for some reason. By now, Dan Deacon fans don’t just go to his shows to listen to the music, they go to embody it. The joy and mania of his digital pop ecstasy ripple outward in their bodies like corporeal sound waves. The effect is instant, no warm-up needed. Less than 10 minutes in, he had the room popping off like a rave in full swing. More than just a performer, Deacon also plays the masterful maestro to all the action, leading the packed house through a tag-team dance contest, a fullroom mirrored dance-off (kicked off by Deacon’s own dad, who was in attendance) and, of course, his famous human tunnel that led everyone out to the sidewalk, stretched the whole block and then circled back inside. At Dan Deacon shows, audience participation is elevated to en masse performance. It’s more mob communion than it is concert. And it says something – something empowering and egalitarian – that the biggest excitement came more from being in the crowd than anything
I don’t know how everyone was feeling the morning after, but all these original gangsters were ripping and raging like the past couple of decades never happened
on stage. When Deacon’s music and congregation rendezvous, the destination is always the state of maximum euphoria.
PENETRATION: A SALUTE TO THE STOOGES, WILL’S PUB, NOV. 9
I am not above a good tribute show. The fruit may hang low but it can be undeniably sweet. However, attempting to take on the holier-than-fuck Iggy Pop? Well, that’s one tall-ass order. There are few vessels of voice and presence around these parts that are as equipped to dare as Central Florida’s Greg Reinel, former frontman of the great Nutrajet (still miss you, Jeff Wood) and one of the most devout archetypes of the classic punk ideal that Orlando has ever produced. Enlist legends the Hate Bombs to back him up with a Jim Ivy cameo and you’ve got a living hall of fame of the Orlando underground assembled, locked and loaded for the endeavor of conjuring the immortal Stooges. I’ll take those odds. Reinel’s no stranger to cover songs.
Nutrajet used to rock some great ones, my favorite being the MC5’s “High School.” But I’ve never seen him try to actually transform into someone else. Though this wasn’t one of those cheesy impersonation band deals, he really put in the homework to channel the spirit and moves of Iggy with some astonishing fidelity. Before the first song was done, Reinel was already writhing half-naked. From there on, he was all sinew, snarl and incarnation, while the band behind him were strapping and accurate. It was a Stooges tribute done with as much fun as with old-school care and craft. Opening was that very band, the Tremolords. In case you don’t know by now, that’s the name Orlando garagerock gods the Hate Bombs are now going by. The word “hate” has some too-real baggage these days. Well, the name may have changed but the band, the jams and the seemingly eternal vim remain essentially and gloriously the same. Guitarist Dave Ewing still throws sparks and highkicks like a Rockette on stage, and when drummer Ken Chiodini sings, he’s still owner of the best “WAAAHHH!” around. More than just a great show, this night was an Orlando fountain of youth. I don’t know how everyone was feeling the morning after, but all these original gangsters were ripping and raging like the past couple decades plus never happened. When Jim Faherty goes up on stage and personally delivers a round of drinks to the band while they’re swinging mid-song, you know you’re in a direct portal back to some Orlando glory days. Yeah, it was a party. baolehuu@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

Kero Kero Bonito MUSIC
PHOTO BY MIA SAKAI
With 2016 debut album Bonito Generation, young London act Kero Kero Bonito made a bright splash, landing somewhere in a sweet spot between British and Japanese pop. But despite the cute and seemingly basic appeal of that initial emergence, they’re proving anything but straightforward or disposable. By the time they came back around with 2018 follow-up Time ’n’ Place, the Polyvinyl Records band had graduated and morphed into a realized pop kaleidoscope sparkling with shards of synth, J-pop, noise, rock and a now-generation outlook that completely obliterates the borders that divide those styles. (And show up early for the pop-laced, late-night house-music pulse of notable American electronic artist Negative Gemini.) Expect this show to come in hot because it’s been moved from the Social up to big sister venue the Beacham due to high demand. – Bao Le-Huu with Negative Gemini | 7 p.m. | The Beacham, 46 N.

Doug Stanhope COMEDY
To a large, often vocal, segment of the population, Doug Stanhope is the greatest living comedian on Earth. The 52-year-old has spent more than 30 years putting out a body of work that skewers everything from drug laws to the prison system to assisted suicide – and sure, more than a few dirty jokes get thrown in the mix as well. Not everyone will agree with his politics, or his willingness to “punch down” at groups who he sees as being “too sensitive,” but his delivery and stage presence – Stanhope has a knack for making the audience feel like they’re his personal friends – are usually enough to get him a pass. – Thaddeus McCollum with Olivia Grace | 8 p.m. | Orlando Improv, 9101 International Drive | 407-480-5233 | theimprovorlando.com | $45

Throwback ’90s: Udit Narayan, Kumar Sanu & Alka Yagnik MUSIC
OUR PICKS FOR THE BEST EVENTS THIS WEEK
The ’90s represented a sea change for Bollywood music. While the ’70s and ’80s emphasized fizzy fusions of disco, pop and traditional Indian soundtrack sounds, the 1992 arrival of visionary composer-producer A.R. Rahman heralded a more sophisticated approach. Rahman definitely knew how to craft accessible hits, but he did so with sweeping, symphonic soundscapes that appropriately mirrored the melodrama onscreen. His work throughout the decade completely shifted the baseline for what made a quality Bollywood soundtrack, demanding songs be danceable, singable earworms (maybe sometimes with a weird rap break!), as well as compositionally sound and emotionally evocative. Rahman – and the composer-producers who followed in his wake – also introduced a whole new group of playback singers (the folks who actually sing the songs for the actors onscreen), and a trio of them – Udit Narayan, Kumar Sanu and the inimitable Alka Yagnik – will be performing ’90s hits by Rahman and others at this “throwback” performance. – Jason Ferguson 8 p.m. | Addition Financial Arena, 12777 N.

Com Truise MUSIC
Com Truise’s new album, Persuasion System, found synthesist Seth Haley heading in a darker direction, and he’s bringing those stark vibes and soundscapes to the mean streets of downtown Orlando this week. The 30-something Los Angeles-via-New York producer rebuilt and reconfigured his sound for this new mini-album – released, as always, by rulebreaker imprint Ghostly International. Persuasion System is bursting with new moods, new tools and new sound possibilities. Though still nodding towards the aesthetics and sonic palettes of 1980s synth music, Com Truise’s music is more subtle and richly orchestrated, well beyond any synthwave trends. – Matthew Moyer with Altopalo, Beshken | 8 p.m. | The Social, 54 N.

The album includes hits like “I Like Boys,” “Dripeesha” and “Y.A.S.” Though Hall is still seen as an up-and-coming artist, the Broadway star and YouTuber will have you rocking to dem beats and twerking in the rain until the sun comes up.

Would you rather sip or guzzle down of frothy beer? Either way, beer lovers never tap out, so enjoy a day of tastings at Orlando Weekly’s fifth annual Orlando Beer Festival happening at Festival Park. Expect to sample over 200 craft and premium beers from more than 50 local, regional and national breweries. There will also be wine tastings, live musicians and local food trucks to munch from. Uber expenses shouldn’t be a problem since the festival offers lower ticket prices for designated drivers. But if you aren’t getting behind the wheel, it would be a sin to skip out on a boozy bounce experience in the GameZone inflatable. The festival grounds are also pooch-friendly, so bring your furry friend to join this afternoon party in the Milk District. – Sarah Jennifer Hardin

Dress up as your favorite Sesame Street characters with your little ones as you strut your Big Bird feathers through the heart of UCF. Proceeds go to the Sesame Workshop Yellow Feather Fund, a charity designed to assist children whose parents deal with substance abuse disorders. Photo ops are available with on-site Sesame Street characters for you or your favorite monsters after the race. This message is brought to you by the letter S for sweat. – Ross Nobles

Orlando Philharmonic music director Eric Jacobsen leads a guided journey through Hector Berlioz’s best-known work, the Symphonie Fantastique. In the first half of the program Jacobsen uses visual aids and highlighted segments of the composition to help explicate Berlioz’s romantic-verging-on-overwrought “fever dream,” a story of unrequited love written while the composer was high AF on opium. For what it’s worth, in his essential Young People’s Concerts, Leonard Bernstein called Fantastique “the first psychedelic symphony in history.” To make a day of it – and contribute to the Phil – purchase tickets to the pre-concert brunch, where opium will not be served.

B Y DA N S AVAG E
My boyfriend and I met online to explore our kinks. We’d both been in relationships with kink-shaming people who screwed with our heads. Since we weren’t thinking it was more than a hookup, we put all our baggage on the table early and wound up becoming friends. Eventually we realized we had a real connection and started a relationship where we supported our desire to explore. I’ve never been happier. The only issue is how he gets down on himself if I get more attention than he does. After the first kink party we went to, he would not stop trying to convince me that no one looked at him all evening. I tried to boost his confidence, and I also brought up things like “You were on a leash, so maybe people assumed you were off-limits.” No dice. I couldn’t get him to even entertain the notion that anyone even looked at him. He’s a cross-dressing sissy who loves to be used by men – heterosuckual – and he has a lot of baggage with every last one of his exes citing his cross-dressing as a reason to leave him for a “real” man. To make things worse, we have had issues with guys coming over for him, finding out there’s a Domme female in the picture, and switching focus to me. I feel like I wind up avoiding kinky sexual situations (which I love!) because I’m so concerned about protecting his ego. I’ve tried using my words and we generally communicate well, but he is unwilling to entertain any interpretations that don’t mesh with his theory that he’s obviously undesirable. The breaking point for me was this past weekend. He encouraged me to go to a swingers party with a friend, and I had a blast. It was super-empowering, and all I wanted to do was tell him every detail – the way he will when he services cock – and he was so jealous that I was able to effortlessly get so much attention, he wasn’t ready to hear it. It made me feel the same sex shame I felt with my ex. It also made me feel like he was insinuating how could I get so lucky, which hit all my chubby girl self-conscious places hard. Any advice you have would be greatly appreciated! Seeking Insightful Stress Solution, Yup Tell that sissy to get over herself. Your boyfriend is making you feel guilty about something you have no control over: Women get more attention at mixed-gender sex/play parties than men do. And as far as your respective kinks go, SISSY, there are always going to be more people out there who want to get with Domme women than guys who want to get with/be serviced by submissive heterosuckual cross-dressers. Your boyfriend will always attract less interest than you do at a kink party, just as someone who goes to a BDSM play party hoping to do a little knife play will attract less interest than someone who’s looking for a little light bondage. Instead of counting the number of guys who approach you at a party 54
and then trying to ruin your night for getting more attention than he does, your boyfriend has to make the most of every opportunity that comes his way. And if some guy approaches him at a play party only to realize he’s on a leash, SISSY, isn’t that guy supposed to turn his attention to the Dominant partner? If your boyfriend could resist the urge to spiral down at those moments – if he could resist the urge to make himself the center of negative attention – those men would probably turn their attention back to him at some point, particularly if you encouraged/gave them permission to do so. (You could and perhaps should also make it clear to anyone who approaches you at some kink parties that you’re a package deal: You play together or you don’t play at all.) But even then, your boyfriend has to accept that you’ll be leveraging your desirability on both your behalves and be at peace with it. Usually when I advise readers to “use their words,” it’s about making sexual needs clear, i.e., asking for what we want with the understanding that we may not always get what we want. But what you need (and you need to use your words to get), SISSY, is for your boyfriend to knock this petty, hypocritical slut-shaming shit off. He’s essentially shaming you for being the slut he’d like to be. It might help if you got him to recognize and grieve and accept not just the reality of the situation – women with more mainstream kinks are more in demand at mixed-gender kink parties than men with niche kinks – but also the risk he’s running here: His insecurities are sabotaging your relationship. Him setting traps for you – like encouraging you to go out and play only to make you feel terrible about it afterward – and making hurting insinuations about your attractiveness is making this relationship untenable. Tell him that you’re going to dump him if he can’t get a grip. And then ask him what will be worse – being partnered with someone who gets more attention than he does in kink and swinger spaces or being a single man in those spaces. (It’s a trick question, at least partly, as many of those spaces don’t allow single men.) Straight woman here with a penis question: My current partner is uncircumcised, which I am completely fine with. However, his foreskin is so tight that it can’t be pulled back over the head of his penis. I did my research and discovered the issue is phimosis. I asked him about it, and he said it’s always been this way and that sometimes it is painful. None of his doctors have seemed to notice it during exams, and he’s never brought it up. Oddly enough, this is something that I’ve come across with two different partners – and in both situations, they had issues with maintaining an erection. Is this a thing? My Boyfriend’s Penis
ORLANDO WEEKLY ● NOV. 13-19, 2019 ● orlandoweekly.com
“ S I S S Y T H AT TA L K ”
Phimosis is definitely a thing, MBP, and when it makes erections a painful thing, as it often does, then erections are going to be harder to obtain and sustain. And unless a doctor was examining your boyfriend’s erect penis, it’s not something a doctor would notice. A good doctor will ask their patients about their sexual health and function, but – based on the mail I get – it seems very few people have good doctors. Looking on the bright side: Phimosis is easily treated, if you can persuade your boyfriend to ask his doctor about it. Smearing a steroid cream on his cock could stretch and loosen the foreskin. And if the cream doesn’t work, then a full or partial circumcision will do the trick. I love my boyfriend, and he knows I like women, too. Our sex life was OK, a little boring and routine and always “doggy style.” And he hardly ever goes down on me – like, at all. I can count on one hand the number of times he’s done it in four years! So I agreed to have a threesome to spice things up, and we bought condoms. When we got down with another woman, he decided to have sex with her after me and he also decided to go down on her. You know, the thing he never does for me. I’m so upset now, I can’t even have sex with him. I feel like it was a betrayal of my trust for him to eat out a woman he barely knows when he won’t do that for me. He also didn’t use the condoms – he says he “didn’t have time.” He said it meant nothing. But it’s really got me upset. Now Overlooking My Need Of Munching Not only would I have been upset during that threesome, NOMNOM, I would have been single very shortly after it. Dude doesn’t eat pussy – dude doesn’t eat your pussy – and can’t find the time to put a condom on when he wants to (gets to!) have sex with another woman in front of you? DTMFA.
