8C C0:4B 0 E8;;064 C> <0:4 0 C>F= I read Gabe Meline’s article on Body or Brain, and the investigation you did into the burgeoning Napa scene really impressed me (“Rock Among the Vineyards,� May 13). It’s great to see the Bohemian paying attention to changes in our community’s culture. You’ve given the bands in Napa a broader voice in the community. I only hope that others in similar situations can learn from their struggle and fruitful persistence. That being said, I must emphasize the unfairness of crediting me for organizing the Battle of the Bands. An entire committee of young Napans came together to orchestrate this opportunity— all of them representing a variety of artistic inclinations (theater, film, photography, music, writing and visual design, among others). The idea stemmed from Wandering

Rose’s mission to promote Napa’s pop, indie and experimental art scenes, and the actual event happened by pooling the resources of a group. We believe that by representing ourselves honestly, showing respect for the community, and taking responsibility for our actions, we can create space for multitudinous arts and cultures within the Napa Valley. Many, even locals, wouldn’t think of Napa as a hub of progressive art, but I think they’d catch their tongue if they came to any of our events to see the diversity of voices and genres. There are many great businesses and leaders in the community that have taken us in and shown us their support in this effort. For Wandering Rose, the Napa Valley Battle of the Bands is the first step toward establishing a healthy working relationship between local artists and respected Napa businesses. We owe a deep debt of gratitude to the Napa Valley

Opera House, Napa School of Music and daSilva Records for making this first step a big one. In many other ways, businesses and organizations like Arts Council Napa Valley, Oxbow Public Market, Napa Valley Coffee Roasting Company, Rockzilla and Billco’s have also shown their support for the arts culture. We want to pay our respects and continue to work hard to build a self-sustaining arts scene. That’s a long way of saying thank you. To all you Napans: If you think Napa is like the town in Footloose, take a lesson from Kevin Bacon and do something about it.

186 6A44= 1DCC Regarding the Cloverdale Seventh Annual Sculpture Exhibit: Most people in the area are enjoying the sculptures in the Plaza. It’s a big thing for the town, and visitors come because the exhibit draws in submissions from good artists, has great judges and is well done. This year, there’s a tad bit of controversy with a few uptight residents. You see, one of the piece’s plump, chartreuse derriere is hanging out facing the main street. The piece was done by M. C. Carolyn and is titled The Listener. Hopefully it’ll draw even more people out to see the big green butt, and the rest of the great pieces, of course.

If out-of-state egg producers don’t want their eggs to rot away in the supermarkets, they should at least give their hens enough space to spread their wings. California voters overwhelmingly supported Proposition 2 because we believe that it’s unethical to cram birds in tiny, filthy cages. For that reason, we should support AB 1437—the bill that will require out-of-state egg companies to comply with our more humane standards. I believe that the best way to help hens is to not buy eggs at all, but if AB 1437 passes, it will help lessen the suffering of countless hens around the country, and that’s something everyone, everywhere, can get behind.

70=3B >= EFCA legislation, a top union priority supported by President Obama, would provide legal recognition of a union at a workplace if a majority of workers signed statements of support.

2W^^bX]V 2W^XRT

Does the Employee Free Choice Act do more than sanction unions—does it actually sanction democracy? By David Moberg

F

hen Congress votes on the Employee Free Choice Act, it will decide not only whether workers will be able to organize unions more easily and whether America will build a stronger economy based on shared prosperity. It will also decide how democratic America will be. The fate of the proposed legislation hinges on a few senators under intense pressure from corporations. But labor leaders remain optimistic that the legislation will pass—most likely with some tweaks. “We’re definitely in a tough fight,� says Stewart Acuff, assistant to AFL-CIO president John Sweeney. “This is the largest grass-roots campaign in labor history. We’re going to

play it out as hard and strong as we can.� The legislation, a top union priority supported by President Obama, would provide legal recognition of a union at a workplace if a majority of workers signed statements of support. Now, even if a huge majority of workers sign union cards, employers can demand that the National Labor Relations Board hold an election, giving the company and anti-union consultants time to bully employees into voting against unionization. The bill would also stiffen penalties for all-too-common employer violations of labor law—such as firing union supporters—and provide the option of mediation and arbitration of first contracts when employers balk at serious bargaining. Business groups and their right-wing

allies focus on claims that the law would deny workers’ right to a secret ballot, which they portray as the hallmark of democracy. But businesses clearly oppose the bill not for any alleged democratic shortcomings, but because they oppose unions. In doing so, they oppose freedom of association, a bedrock democratic principle.

Minority Rule Workers can join political or community groups at will, without secret ballots, but can only form unions without a ballot if the boss agrees. Most employers make union elections as much a free and democratic expression of workers’ views as North Korea’s secret ballots.

democratic, but still deeply flawed. A solid majority in the House voted for EFCA in 2007, but while a majority in the Senate would now, supporters need 60 votes for cloture, or ending debate. With the recent defection of Pennsylvania’s Arlen Specter to the Democratic Party (and assuming Al Franken becomes Minnesota’s new senator), Democrats and independent supporters will number 60. That means Dems will, in theory, have the votes needed to end an inevitable EFCA filibuster. But in March, Specter, who co-sponsored EFCA in 2007, said he would no longer support cloture on the bill, reiterating this point when he announced his party switch in April. And Sen. Blanche Lincoln, D-Ark., from the home state of notoriously antiunion Wal-Mart and Tyson Foods, said she would not support EFCA in its current form because it is too “divisive.� Both senators face re-election next year. Running on the Democratic ticket, even with Obama’s promised support, Specter could face a significant progressive primary challenge. Specter’s switch is more likely to increase the likelihood of a compromise than win EFCA 60 votes. That could leave labor a tough choice between a stale half loaf today or a possible whole loaf in the next Congress. Since the 40-plus senators now supporting a filibuster disproportionately come from less populated states, a tiny minority is undemocratically blocking expanded democracy for the majority. In fact, a clear majority of Americans favor EFCA’s provisions, according to surveys by Hart Research. After pollsters described EFCA reforms, 73 percent of Americans surveyed supported it (including 69 percent in right-to-work states). Even when respondents heard the most potent arguments on both sides, strong—albeit smaller—majorities supported EFCA by margins of about 19 percent. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce and a shadowy network of front groups have kept most businesses—even those who accepted majority sign-up to recognize a union— toeing a hard line against the bill. But some small business owners around the country have spoken out for EFCA as good for business and the economy. “We need a strong working middle class, or my business will suffer,� says Darren Horndash, owner of the 33-store Wisconsin Vision optical chain. He says his unionized employees’ loyal performance helps retain customers. Corporate opponents claim widespread unionizing will shut down businesses and cost jobs, but a new study by the Economic Policy Institute concludes that “the biggest fear voiced by employer groups regarding unionization—that it will inevitably drive them out of business—has no evidentiary basis.� And a new Center for Economic and Policy Research study, led by MIT professor Thomas Kochan, argues that unions are associated with high-performance workplaces yielding 15 to 30 percent “performance premiums� in efficiency, quality, employee engagement and profitability.

Cracks in the Monolith? One group of big companies—partly unionized Costco and staunchly anti-union Whole Foods and Starbucks—has broken with the hard-line Chamber of Commerce.

The companies have proposed quicker elections, before which unions and businesses would both have access to workers. But it opposes majority sign-up and arbitration, and also proposes a new right of employers to initiate union decertification. While unacceptable to unions, the group’s proposal shows cracks in the corporate monolith. Unions are keeping up the fight for EFCA as proposed, but they acknowledge changes may be needed to win over 60 senators. If Lincoln and Specter can be persuaded to help end a filibuster, they’re confident all other Democrats will as well. “Taking steps to rebalance the playing field was always going to be tough,� says Change to Win executive director Chris Chafe. “But we’re still in a strong position to achieve major labor law reform. It will look a great deal like [EFCA].� Some changes—such as designing sign-up cards that explicitly give workers the choice of an election or immediate approval of the union or lengthening the time before arbitration can be requested—would not seriously compromise the legislation. But many proposals, including one from Specter that would bar union organizers from visiting workers’ homes without prior consent, would tilt the playing field even more against unions. Likely proposals to mandate elections within a short time—say, five to 10 days after a union petition—are problematic, even if unions got equal access to workers. “It takes a short time for employers to poison the well,� one organizer explained. Indeed, the fundamental problem is that employer speech in a workplace is inherently coercive, since the boss has power over a worker’s job. “We are weighing a bunch of options, but the last thing we want to do is make the mistake of the other side and bully or threaten people,� AFL-CIO’s Acuff says. “It doesn’t work well, but it also points out what we’re trying to stop—the bullying and intimidation every day in the workplace.�

A Tough Fight Unions have maintained a steady push for EFCA, including more than 400 actions during Congress’ spring break. They’ve mobilized nonunion supporters and given prominent roles to workers with personal stories to tell, like Colorado electrician Dan Luevano. In 2005 Luevano and most of his fellow workers at Ries Electric near Denver asked their boss to recognize the Electrical Workers as their union to help resolve problems. The boss called everyone in and threatened to fire them if they voted for a union. Luevano said he would any way, and the next workday he was fired. Though the National Labor Relations Board reinstated him, his boss isolated him and cut his hours while continuing to violate labor laws by fighting the union. Luevano eventually left Ries Electric for a union firm. But he has told his story in community forums and interviews, and in congressional hearings and meetings with Colorado senators. “I wouldn’t want anyone to go through what I went through,� he says. “I’m not a professional lobbyist, just a working person, trying to make life better for my co-workers and our families.� By doing so, Luevano says that he is also trying to make America better—and more democratic. It’s a tough fight.

By P. Joseph Potocki

ateline: Washington, D.C. June 10, 2013 White House Press Secretary Ann Coulter looks stunning in sleeveless turtleneck business attire. And she’s all business as she steps to the pressroom podium. “Good morning. As you all know, the president recognizes that each of our constitutional freedoms stems from Christian initiative conjoined with personal responsibility and the inalienable right to privately own things. But she also realizes that other stuff changes over time. For example, corporations, once thought of as mere fabricated constructs, have rightly been deemed real people for a century or more. Change, then, is what makes America great. Consequently, President Palin has sent her personal spokesperson here today to announce new realignments in and reforms to federal departments and administration cabinet positions, as well as her pick for the next Supreme Court justice.� Coulter levels an in-all-sincerity gaze at the press assemblage. “To outline these changes, and to introduce the next Supreme, I’m turning the podium over to presidential adviser and the nation’s number one talk show host, Rush Limbaugh.� Limbaugh charges up from the rear of the room dressed in a fashionable black muumuu, replete with a tiny U.S. flag pin, arms pumping up and down, while the press corps stand and applaud. “Thank you, Ann.� Limbaugh points to the press secretary, smirking and giving her a knowing wink. Limbaugh then smiles widely at a room chock-full of Fox News and Clear Channel journalists. “All right then, just like I said exactly four years ago: this nation, and a certain former president, were both heading for disaster. Naturally, I was absolutely spoton. But thanks to multitudes of right-minded freedom lovers, we’re beginning to turn this mess around.� The big guy licks a fat index finger, drawing a huge check in the air before exuding, “The entire country has since dittoed me on that, electing a leader in line with basic American Republican tenets we all hold so dear; a president who believes less government is more, believes in traditional moral values, fewer taxes, American military might, together with the free-enterprising pursuit of accumulative happiness. And because our party heeded my clarion call for conservative purity, we now enjoy majorities in both houses of Congress, have recently elected the first woman ever to the highest

office in the land and have turned our attention to reforming the federal courts. In a nutshell, we have arrived, making it high time to implement our vast and unyielding freedom agenda.� Sensing the drama he is about to impart, Limbaugh opens his mouth wide, pausing and breathing heavily, allowing tension to mount, before saying, “Today, with our nation suffering though this horrendous Democrat Party Depression, we can ill afford, nor do our citizens want, the many corruptions that socialist nanny states force upon their inhabitants. Consequently, President Palin has decreed that from this day forward there will be no Department of Labor, no Department of Housing and Urban Development, no Health and Human Services, no EPA and, of course, no Department of Education. Moreover, to fulfill the president’s repeated campaign pledge, today she has signed executive orders eliminating both the Internal Revenue Service and the Social Security Administration.� A lone voice pipes up from the back of the room. “But this is illegal. Congress must—� “Helen, let me assure you every action set forth today meets the letter of the law,� Limbaugh counters, before leaning over and whispering to an aide that he usher Ms. Thomas out. Over the course of the next hour, Rush Limbaugh, the president’s personal adviser, regales his simpatico Fourth Estate with plans to create three new agencies, including the departments of Media Truth and Christian Affairs, “which will distribute monies exclusively to those institutions which meet rigorous academic criteria, and whose students pass specified tests.� Finally, Limbaugh, with the passion and zeal of a P. T. Barnum, reveals President Palin’s Supreme Court pick. “This person is not simply a woman,� Limbaugh notes. “Even before attending the University of Chicago Law School, she embarked upon a career at the State Department and at the U.S. Agency for International Development. Since then she has worked both in private practice and as a deputy assistant secretary of state. Plus, she comes from a distinguished and honorable family of selfless public servants.� Limbaugh grandiloquently motions to the door behind the curtain, “Meet your next Supreme Court justice—Liz Cheney.� Open Mic is now a weekly feature in the Bohemian.

Folding the pizza: an experiment in carless thinking By Juliane Poirier

7

ow did she do it? I don’t know whether she folded them or not, but a Bay Area woman last week transported three unboxed pizzas on the back of her bike, reporting that they were delivered safely and promptly eaten. Her story is one of a growing collection from people taking the Car-Free Challenge at www.transformca.org and posting feedback about staying out of the car as much as possible during June. What strikes me is how much this Car-Free Challenge forces us to think creatively. It also forces us to acknowledge (begrudgingly or otherwise) those who walked away from their cars a long time ago, decades even. Car-free folks can be irritatingly (yet understandably) smug about having it all figured out. Jennie Schultz, for example, has been carfree for a year. “It’s fantastic,� says Schultz, who uses biking, walking and public transportation to get to and from her home on the west side of Santa Rosa. “The main thing is, I don’t have to sit in traffic all day.� Don’t rub it in. I can’t abandon my auto altogether just yet. But I can make a difference by doing even a little; any attempt to reduce mileage this month will help cut traffic, clear the air and provide the personal stories being collected by a regional group called Transform (formerly known as TALC, the Transportation and Land Use Coalition). Transform advocates for walkable, bikable communities. I’d like to live in one of those communities right now. My city is not very bike- or walk-friendly. The only route to my son’s school in north Napa is an obstacle course that includes a freeway frontage road with irregular offerings of sidewalk, a potholed gravel and hard dirt parking lot, and two major boulevard intersections; five miles of biking this alongside an eight-year-old daydreamer in heavy morning traffic is not my idea of fun. So I typically drive my son to school. But on bike-to-school day last month, we made the ride for the first time and had so

much fun (endorphins rock) that now we ride our bikes whenever we can leave the house early enough. Still, I’d prefer we had a safe path across town. And Transform wants us to have that. “We advocate at regional, state and national levels, and right now we’re trying to put a face on some of the agendas we’re pushing,â€? says AndrĂŠa Tyler, who does outreach and development for Transform. “This is really about the stories.â€? The CarFree Challenge includes funny blog postings, especially from a participant plotting to bike her pet chickens around in panniers. But along with the laughs are community-building and fundraising components to the challenge, outlined on the website. To join up, participants either pay a f lat $65 to sign up, or get their friends and family to sponsor them in reaching a mileage-reduction goal. Some have set goals for all month while others take it one day at a time. Those who sign up can be part of a team, meet others who are taking the challenge, and generally get lots of practical and moral support while tracking mileage and competing for prizes. A family of four in Oakland has set a mileage reduction goal of 200 miles and a fundraising goal of $500. Another family of four in Alameda who signed up for the challenge has been car-free for 11 months! I can see why it’s important to swap car-free-living stories, since now I have to stop whining about how difficult it is to go carfree with only one child. Damn. I hate that. Transform’s campaign slogan is “Drive Less and Live More.â€? Their 10 reasons for doing so are: saving money, reducing carbon, improving health, building community, raising metabolism, breathing easier, sending a social message, saving lives (animal and human), and supporting advocacy efforts to make communities more walkable and bikable. I must add: first, being car-free encourages the cleverness to transport three unboxed pizzas on a five-inch bike rack using only your wits and a bungee cord; and second, that solvitur ambulando—it is solved by walking—is always true, except when it is solved by biking.

Car-free folks can be irritatingly (yet understandably) smug about having it all figured out.

t’s stomach season, so we’re clearing out inventory.� So says chef Mateo Granados as he dishes up a heaping scoop of embutido de chito, his Yucatan family recipe of baby goat stomach that’s stuffed with blood, heart and kidney, then aged for three weeks into an inky black loaf. Baby goat meat is a delicacy in the late spring, he explains, and he doesn’t want to waste the tasty offal that other chefs might throw away. “People love it,� he grins, as another customer grabs a plate and hustles over to the shaded picnic table next to his booth at the Sebastopol farmers market. A few feet away, chef John Franchetti feeds pizzas into a roaring wood-fired oven built onto a portable trailer. Minutes later, he pulls out a crispy, cracker-thin Margherita model laced with pepperoni and roasted mushroom. It looks and tastes just like the exquisite pies produced at his Rosso Pizzeria & Wine Bar in Santa Rosa.

“Paella!� shriek a gaggle of teenage girls suddenly, converging with flyers to promote Gerard’s paella, that Gerard being, of course, chef Nebesky of Occidental, who bested Bobby Flay on Throwdown on the Food Network and now cooks the Spanish rice dish in wading-pool-size pans at North Bay events. From his booth nearby waft the enticing aromas of seafood, chicken and sausage steaming with deeply fragrant spices. This is all pretty fancy stuff to be eating in a parking lot. Yet it’s the start of the North Bay’s 2009 farmers market season, and a recent tour of our larger gatherings found that more and more, dining here is no afterthought. While in years past, market-goers might have been content to snack on taco truck– or sandwich-style fare, these days, they’re snapping up specialty savories and sweets. Indeed, today’s temptations are the kind of dishes we might find in a real restaurant, and are often prepared on site by the chef himself. It’s easy to credit Granados with the revolution. After leaving a high-profile position

as executive chef at Healdsburg’s Dry Creek Kitchen in 2004, he set up a booth at the Santa Rosa Downtown Market, plying us with Yucatan tamales stuffed with slow-roasted suckling pig, Rosie organic chicken, CK Lamb, roasted local vegetables and Bodega Bay goat cheese. He’s now branched out into full meals, offered at three of the major markets around town and sometimes served on china with real silverware. Working with a professional Wolf range outfitted with wheels, Granados sends out a quesadilla brimming with Black Sheep Farm beef, picadillo, Tierra vegetables, grilled cactus, jack cheese and smoked tomatillo sauce alongside a Ridgeview Farm arugula salad. Another popular new offering is a relleno negro of Yucatan-style black mole, Black Sheep Farms meatballs, Salmon Creek Ranch hard boiled duck eggs, fresh favas and La Bonne Terre peppercress piled on madefrom-scratch tortillas. Lately, though, Granados has competition. Rosso’s Franchetti and crew just debuted their portable, faux brick-faced pizza oven &THE BOHEMIAN

You grab your goodies, find a sunny spot to sit, and groove to the live bluegrass sounds of the Hicktones. Depending on the market, a chef ’s dishes may vary. According to Granados, diners are most adventurous in Healdsburg. Visitors at the Sebastopol fair may get their chito dressed up in a moist, marvelous scramble of Salmon Creek Ranch duck eggs, smoked tomatillo sauce and La Bonne Terre little gem lettuce, for example, while in Healdsburg, the chito may be simply tucked in a handmade taco. If the Sebastopol market is the most relaxed in mood of the markets (it’s common to see naked children at play in the fountain, and the “Laughter Yogaâ€? booth always draws a crowd), the food is just as serious. Here’s where you’ll find BBQ Smokehouse and Catering’s handmade chicken andouille and “the world’s best strawberry shortcakeâ€?; Patisserie Angelica’s fresh-baked galettes and brown butter tarts; and to wash it all down, steaming cups of joe from Run Around Brew Mobile Espresso. At the Santa Rosa Veteran’s Building market, meanwhile, you may browse Ecco Cafe, a small stand draped in burlap and selling Ethiopian Bonko or cachoeira coffee. Or perhaps you crave Sisterpie Pot Pies of beef burgundy mushroom in cornmeal crust, apple butter beef stew, or turkey tarragon in lemon citrus pastry crust. Squisito Dolci lures with biscotti or ricotta poundcake, and one can idly wonder what it will be at Flour Creations: a veggie hand pie (plump with brown rice, mushrooms, zucchini, Swiss chard, pepper jack, sweet onions, green chiles and garlic) or Nicky’s breakfast burritos (fat and spicy with scrambled eggs, jalapenos, black pepper and garlic sautĂŠed in butter)? Across the asphalt lot, the folks from Sebastopol’s French Garden restaurant showcase good green stuff from their 30acre organic, bio-intensive farm (gorgeous rainbow chard, chives and romaine), while Santa Rosa seafood does brisk business with

Pacific Fanny Bay oysters, live lobster, crab, and salmon grilled on barbecues belching forth a seductive, smoky perfume. Even the downtown Santa Rosa market is fancying things up. Serious marketers may typically avoid this Wednesday night gathering because it’s too popular (read: loud and rowdy), and seems more geared toward festival folk, with its cotton candy, kettle corn, snow cones, funnel cakes and corn dogs. Yet the other week, between a man with sign reading “I Can Prove There Is a Godâ€? and a drunken woman waving a giant Willie Bird turkey leg in the air, Donna del Rey of Relish Culinary Adventures and Franchetti calmly conducted an open-air class on making handpulled mozzarella. Tempting selections, actually, are enormous, here. Cattlemens is promoting a new dish, a gaucho steak of grilled sirloin with chimichurri sauce, grilled onions and peppers on grilled ciabatta. Grandpa’s Fish Tales moves past fish sticks to clam chowder in a sourdough bowl, ahi poke or crab Louie, while Thai House throws the gauntlet down to California Thai, dueling their fried bananas with coconut ice cream against CT’s spicy lime salad. Home Maid Italian Marketplace offers pillowy ravioli- and anchovy-stuffed olives, while Hector’s Honey of Sonoma hands out fresh cactus pads and star thistle honey. The Hummus Guy dunks garlic pita chips in baked tofu salad, while Viola Pastry Boutique & CafĂŠ beckons with dainty cupcakes and whoopie pie. At Ellene’s Handmade Brittle, there’s a choice to be made between cashew, peanut and almond, while at Mommy and Me Cooking Co., pumpkin bundt cake seems to be the clear favorite. C’est Cheesecake often sells out of its mini cakes, while Dominique’s Sweets fills in some gaps with gluten free macarons. The Killer Baking Co. has just one simple threat: Brownies to Die For. If diners are finding more to love at the farmers markets, so too are our chefs and artisan purveyors. A gang of white-jacketed gents from Dry Creek Kitchen strolled the Healdsburg gathering recently, browsing tables groaning with Oak Gate Farm garlic, ruby-red strawberries, favas the size of sausages, Italian parsley and tight-leaved artichokes. At the Sebastopol market, Lesley Brabyn of Salmon Creek Ranch of Bodega breezed by, pausing to explain the difference between duck and chicken eggs (ducks have bigger yolks, and, she swore, taste a whole lot better). As she chatted, chef Mark Malicki sidled up, taking a break from his St. Rose to shop for ingredients for a special party he was catering. High on his list was goat, and Granados had just what he needed: an entire baby animal, frozen solid, wrapped in plastic and waiting in an Igloo cooler next to his booth. Malicki bought it, belly and all.

For all North Bay farm markets, go to F&D in our calendar, p46.

If the sun shines with too much warmth, there will be fresh strawberry water to quench dehydrated guests. Others, more aggressive, will be able to put their hands around wet sponges that can be thrown at the anxious DJs of KGGV-LP, the Lower Russian River’s public radio station. Free strawberry-themed activities will keep the kids busy under the Strawberry Small Top, and the silent auction allows adults to bid on items while keeping their mouths full of strawberry treats.

If all this is not enough, there will also be royalty present—the Strawberry Queen, who is elected by festivalgoers. All the while the summertime air will be ďŹ lled with the musical notes of Boogie Woogie Queen Wendy Dewitt, the Fargo Brothers, the Passions and others.

The strawberry, with its rough but tempting esh, invites memories of long summer days and mom’s homemade strawberry jam. Stomachs growl at the thought of ripe sliced strawberries that have been marinated in sugar, piled over warm shortcake and covered with a leaning pile of whipped cream. Indulge, strawberries are waiting.

The strawberritastic extravaganza will take over the parking lot of the Guerneville Community Church. Barrels of strawberries will ďŹ ll the space, and Fragaria ananassa– loving guests will be able to roam with a stick in hand and a plump fruit attached to the end that is just waiting to be poked into the fountain brimming with the strawberry’s most perfect mate: chocolate.

The festival offers the opportunity for all should-berecognized-and- shared-with-the-world strawberry dessert recipes to take center stage. Everyone is encouraged to participate in a dessert contest by bringing 20 servings of delectable strawberry delights to the event by 11am. After the judges taste the entries and announce the winners, all the desserts will be up for sale, so all will have the chance to satiate their salivating mouths with strawberry goodness.

mall golden seeds nestle themselves into esh the color of ruby slippers. The seeds are like dimples that cause the skin to mound up around each one. When the fruit is bitten into, its sweet juices pop over the tongue—it tastes distinctly like lazy afternoons. The strawberry, in all its sensuous, summertime, sentimental glory, is given the attention it deserves this June 20 at the Guerneville’s KGGV Strawberry Festival.

Time was that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms put the ixnay on the odbay—and prohibited labels that seemed to liken ďŹ ne wine to, say, sensuality. Kenwood’s ďŹ rst artist series label featuring a whimsical nude reclined on a vineyard hillside was rejected in 1978. The artist re-submitted the label, swapping out the nude for a skeleton on the same hillside. The Feds were not amused. Not until the 1990s was the legendary label approved for its 20th anniversary. The current artist series label is an earth-tone, demure head-scarfed woman by Shepard Fairey. The times they have changed, but Kenwood, an icon of the 1970s wine boom (since acquired by the owners of Korbel Champagne Cellars), remains more or less the same. Kenwood is such a ďŹ xture of the landscape that I was surprised to discover recently that the Bohemian had yet to drop by for a Swirl ’n’ Spit. So let’s do that. Remodeled from the original 1906 Pagani Winery, the winery has a tidy but rambling, add-on appearance. The tasting room is still a barnlike structure with a modest L-shaped bar. The big surprise was on the tasting menu: prices frozen in time! Kenwood sticks to what works, like its Kenwood Red ($7), a hearty table wine that’s a dependable buy year after year. The Yulupa brand has a strong presence at the top of restaurant lists, and the “reserveâ€? and Sonoma County wines start at just $13. The 2007 Sauvignon Blanc Reserve ($15) was easy to drink with hints of barrel fermentation and lemon drop; the 2007 Chardonnay Reserve ($20), like a baked apple saturated with strong toast and butter notes trending toward Muenster cheese; the 2006 Russian River Pinot Noir ($15), sound if somewhat weedy, with ďŹ ne dry cranberry astringency. Among Kenwood’s prized assets is the Jack London Vineyard series. Kenwood has an exclusive contract to that same vineyard that hikers circumambulate in Jack London State Park. London did not plant vines himself, but he was no stranger to the demijohn. Kenwood’s 2005 Reserve Zinfandel ($25) was as restrained and peppery as ever, while the 2006 Jack London Zinfandel ($20) is a juicier ask full of licorice and blueberry. Syrah is a promising new addition, the 2005 ($25) still brooding over subdued dark forest berries, cinnamon stick and anise. The 2005 Jack London Cabernet Sauvignon ($35) had gobs of cassis and blueberry, steeped in dark tobacco and charred oak, chunky tannins allayed by the eshiness of the fruit. This big, old-fashioned Sonoma Valley Cab is on sale for 50 percent off a case. Kenwood’s got hundreds of thousands of cases to move, and they get it. While some of the wines may be collectible, they’re not “cult.â€? Here, I can pick up a bottle of solid, Sonoma County wine—without being left wearing nothing but a barrel afterward. Kenwood Vineyards, 9592 Sonoma Hwy., Kenwood. Open 10am–4:30pm daily. Tasting fee, $5. 707.833.5891.

>

n a warm spring day, the sun shines down brightly on an innocuous business circle outside of downtown Healdsburg. Directly across the street from the Dry Creek tribal offices, where three security guards huddle in front of boxy beige buildings, patrons of an upscale fitness center lounge around a pool in sun-soaked oblivion to the conf lict brewing just over the fence. A small group of people gather on the sidewalk outside of the tribal offices. They hold handmade signs covered in urgent proclamations: “Hopkins = Dictator—Hold Elections Now,� “American Indians Demand Civil Rights� and “Corruption + Greed = Disenrollment.� The protesters hoot in response to beeps of support from occasional passing cars, and then return to chatting amiably with their neighbors. The relatively subdued nature of

the protest certainly doesn’t reflect the intense stratification brewing since the tribal board called off elections last December. Critics say the rift is a result of board corruption and greed; defenders of the rescheduled elections and the rash of disenrollments that followed say the actions are an attempt to preserve the cultural heritage of the Dry Creek tribe. One of over 20 Pomo bands located in the North Bay region, Dry Creek practices an election process that mirrors the federal system. It is a way of governance that is not indigenous to the tribe, but is the result of the Indian Reorganization Act of 1934, a New Deal–era effort to provide for the formation of “tribal governments� under federal authority as vehicles for Indian “self-government.� After nominations, candidates create and run on a platform, and are either voted in or rejected by a membership majority. Last December, the process was stymied when the current board called off the election after an enrollment audit by an outside consultant

raised concerns about the legitimacy of certain candidates. The controversy reached a boiling point when more than 70 members received letters in January stating that because they were unable to document their lineage or had been affiliated with other tribes in the past, they were being denied membership in the tribe. Thirty of those 70 have since been entirely disenrolled from the tribe. After a series of protests, some dramatic recall efforts and public outcry, the elections were officially rescheduled for May 2009. Incumbent chairman Harvey Hopkins was reelected by a majority of the 340 voting members. But the disenrollment conundrum has yet to be resolved in any meaningful fashion.

board,� charges Ross Cunningham, a 30-yearold Dry Creek member. “The board is using the enrollment audit to get rid of their opposition and to get rid of potential leadership that could take their place.� A musician and producer, Cunningham has been vocal in the protests against the board’s actions. On the phone from San Francisco, Cunningham approaches the issue with the conviction expected from someone who believes that the survival of his very culture is at stake. “When you have tribal members disenrolling each other, it is a microcosm of what colonialism did to our people,� he asserts. The Dry Creek Rancheria Band of Pomo Indians has joined a long line of California tribes caught in a maelstrom of disenrollment and election issues. In December 2008, 50 tribal members were removed from the Robinson Rancheria rolls. The last native speaker was removed from the Elam Colony tribal rolls in 2007, a move justified by the then-chairman who said that many of the people were adopted into the tribe and therefore were not blood relations. Since 2000, when casino gambling ramped up in the state, an estimated 2,500 tribal members across California have been disenrolled with an equal number being denied membership or banished from their tribe. John Gomez, president of the American Indian Rights and Resources Organization (AIRRO), has become a key figure in the struggle to deal with rising disenrollment. Established in 2006, AIRRO was formed as a response to the growing number of tribal members across California and the United States who feel that they have been denied basic rights. “In the disenrollments we’ve been seeing lately, people haven’t committed any crimes, nor have they been accused of committing any crimes. In many instances, you are talking about tribal leaders who are targeted by another faction,� says Gomez on the phone from Southern California. Gomez himself was disenrolled from the Pechanga Tribe of Luiseno Indians—proprietors of one of the most profitable casinos in California. According to the Dry Creek Band’s articles of association, individuals must be able to prove that they are descended from tribe members counted in the 1915 census. Approved in the early 1970s, the articles also state that members cannot have been on the rolls of another tribe. While the federal government established some 54 rancherias in the early 20th century, these lands were often undesirable and arid, leading many Pomos to work for wage labor throughout the San Francisco Bay Area. As a result, the census might not be the most accurate measure of Pomo ancestry. Intermarriage between Northern California bands is quite common as well, the result of geographical instability after forced relocation by the United States government. It is sometimes hard for individuals to know the full history of their ancestors. Disenrollment carries potentially catastrophic consequences for tribal

members. Loss of per capita, or gaming revenue, is only one of the repercussions. Health, housing and education benefits granted via federal government trust responsibilities are lost as well. For Dry Creek members, this means losing access to a per capita payment of $600 a month; elders receive an additional $200. But critics of the new wave of banishments say that loss of per capita is only part of the story. “It goes beyond loss of membership,� Gomez says. “It affects people to the core. Psychologically, it’s like you are removing a part of these people, who they are and where they come from—for generations. Some will question whether they are Indian anymore.�

‘When you have tribal members disenrolling each other, it is a microcosm of what colonialism did to our people.’ —Ross Cunningham Political Plays Liz Elgin DeRouen received her disenrollment letter from the Dry Creek tribal board in January 2009. A serious woman with long dark hair, DeRouen talks in measured words over coffee and juice at a local cafe. DeRouen first served as a tribal administrator from 1994 to 1996 under late chairman Greg Cordova, working with him on the tribe’s first multiprogram documents with the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) and helping to solidify the tribe’s governance documents. While working as an administrator in the Indian child welfare system, DeRouen served on election, housing and education committees. In 2000, she ran for vice-chair and was elected to serve by a majority of the membership. When the elected chairman left his position in 2001, DeRouen took over as chairperson. “There was an enormous upheaval in the tribe at the time. We had major negotiations going on for gaming development. We had enrollment disputes and challenges to leadership positions,� she remembers. Questions about monetary transactions, issues with developers and even a coup served to effectively shut down the tribal government for a short time. DeRouen’s position as incoming tribal chairperson did not go unchallenged, and the validity of her enrollment came up for questioning. Ironically, DeRouen’s grandfather was interim chairman during the development phase of the articles of association. After a series of proceedings, her claim to Dry Creek heritage was approved

by the membership, the enrollment committee and interior BIA appeals The tribal chair serves for a two-year term. In 2002, DeRouen again ran for chair, facing the same challenges to her enrollment. Once again, her membership was approved. It was during the 2004 elections that things started to get messy. DeRouen once again ran for chair against Dean Hoagland and current chairman Harvey Hopkins. At a special meeting, it was decided by the board that Hoagland and DeRouen’s names would be removed from the ballot for questionable eligibility. She says that 135 people objected to the process and challenged the election as illegal. In the end, Harvey Hopkins, a former heavy-equipment operator and truck driver, was elected tribal chairman in early 2005, a position he holds today. DeRouen’s disenrollment is based on the claim that she has been concurrently enrolled with the Point Arena tribe, an accusation that, if true, would be a violation of the articles of association. “A lot of tribes went through times of no money, no staff, no ability to hold information on rolls. Stuff was done in garages and living rooms. It wasn’t something that was systemized,” she explains. While DeRouen readily admits that her mother and some of her sisters are from Point Arena, she says that she received a letter from the current Point Arena chairman stating that her name has not been found on any of their records. “He basically notified the Dry Creek tribe and said that this is not unique, that it happens all the time and that as governments we need to do our best to sort this out in an individualized fashion, rather then a cookie-cutter approach,” she says. So is this a case of selective discrimination? DeRouen’s father is one of the Dry Creek band’s oldest male members, and none of DeRouen’s three daughters have been asked to leave as of this writing. Her voice rising with emotion, DeRouen claims that people are afraid to speak against the actions of the board for fear that they will be targeted next. “I don’t care what they do to me, but I’m going to stand up for everyone else who does fear them,” she says. “I don’t care about the money. I care about what they are doing to the others, intimidating them and not allowing them due process, not allowing them to live free from fear.”

Who Is Harvey Hopkins? Supporters of Dry Creek tribal chairman Harvey Hopkins and the current board say that he is a peacemaker, a man who has reached out to adversaries and healed conflicts with the surrounding Alexander Valley and Healdsburg communities. In a glowing May 2008 Santa Rosa Press Democrat profile, members of country government are quoted as saying that Hopkins has brought a more open way of communicating with nontribal entities. Tribal elders have said that he is viewed well, and that he cares about the tribe as a whole. Hopkins has claimed that the enrollment audit is a way to preserve the culture of the tribe.

“People may see it as a money issue. It’s not,” Hopkins has said in an official statement. “I think the culture of the tribe is really what we’re trying to mend—to make sure we stand as a tribe, as a unit, one solid group of people saying, ‘We are who we are.’” Critics claim that Hopkins is driven by financial impetus rather than the preservation of Pomo culture. In a March 2009 press release posted to IndyBay.org, details of an afternoon protest outside of the River Rock Casino were followed by a list of membership demands. The list included the request for a general membership meeting, for an election to be held within two weeks of the protest (it was held two months later), for a moratorium on disenrollment proceedings and for a suspension of the current board’s salaries until elections were held. The demands were followed by a list of accusations that painted Hopkins as more profiteer than peacemaker. It was alleged that Hopkins had made himself 10 percent owner of the Dry Creek Development Corporation (DCDC)—which shares the same address as the Dry Creek tribal offices— and claimed that this was a violation of Securities and Exchange Commission rulings. According to the Department of Consumer Affairs’ Contractors State License Board, under the license listing for the DCDC, Hopkins is named as a responsible managing officer with certification that he owns 10 percent or more of the voting stock/equity of the corporation; the license is currently under suspension for failures to comply with workers’ compensation rules. Critics say that the DCDC was responsible for constructing a $72 million “road to nowhere” right below the casino, which might have provided some significant profits to the company. Allegations include the insistence that Hopkins used tribal funds in excess of $900,000 to pay for a 2005 sexual harassment lawsuit brought against him by a former tribal administrator. Court records state that the lawsuit was dismissed four weeks after it was filed. He has been named a defendant in a lawsuit filed by a former River Rock Casino executive who said that Hopkins had forced the casino to use the company he owned and operated for exterior maintenance. Calls to the tribal offices requesting an interview with Hopkins or a member of the current board of directors were not returned.

American Indian Movement made the case for the connection to the casinos, going so far as to say that disenrollment did not occur before gaming. In 2000, Proposition 1A was passed by California voters by a 65 percent margin. The measure permitted tribes to expand their gambling operations and allowed Nevada-style gambling in California. The era of Indian gaming unfurled with hurricane force. Ten years later, revenues exceed $5.1 billion per year. River Rock Casino, owned and operated by the River Rock Entertainment Authority, started as a humble tent erected on a rocky hillside in 2002. Built on the 75 acres of land allocated to the Dry Creek Band by the federal government after they were stripped of their original 85,400 acres, the casino was not welcomed with open arms by the outlying community. As tribe leaders leapt at the opportunity to enjoy the fruits of the tribal-state compacts signed by then-governor Gray Davis, state and local officials mounted a campaign of objections concerning possible building, safety and environmental code violations. Further controversy ensued over the construction of a seven-story parking garage on a hill overlooking the pastoral Alexander Valley. As the only Indian casino currently in Sonoma County, plans for expansion include a proposed $300 million permanent casino structure with spas, restaurants and a hotel. Having generated profits of $130.6 million in 2008, according to the most recent financial reports, the casino has brought financial rewards to the Dry Creek band, including the $600 monthly per capita from the revenue, a number that might seem low compared to the $15,000 a month and more that members of the highly profitable Pechanga tribe receive. DeRouen points out: “Six hundred dollars a month, that’s not a lot of money, but it’s the only income for some. I work with poor people everyday, so I know.” But members of the Dry Creek board insist that there is not financial motive for the spate of disenrollments going on here in Sonoma County, insisting that this is an issue of preserving culture and legitimate claims to ancestry, nothing more. In a statement released after his reelection, Hopkins said, “We have a good mix to help the tribe develop economically and continue positive relationships with our neighbors while preserving our culture.”

Game On

Self-Governing

The proliferation of casinos has been a source of conflict both on and off the reservations since the establishment of gaming compacts in the early part of the decade. Like a reflective prism, Indian gaming looks different depending on how it is held up to the light. Some say that it is a way for tribes to strengthen a sovereignty increasingly threatened by congressional actions, while others say that gaming has led to greed and rampant corruption— weakening the resolve of some tribes. In a recent appearance on the KPFA radio talk show Bay Native Circle, Laura Wass of the

One solution to the brewing disenrollment issue involves intervention by state or federal courts. Yet the importance of maintaining sovereignty makes most “wronged” tribe members unwilling to reach outside of the tribe for help. Unlike George W. Bush, who was castigated by the Native American community after a butchered response at a 2004 Journalists of Color conference, in which he said that tribes “had been given sovereignty,” many Indian leaders believe that the right to self-govern is inherent and insoluble, something that cannot be given or taken away.

Ex-tribal chairperson DeRouen says that tribes need to start running their government in a more democratic manner in order to preserve the right to self-govern. “I do want tribes to step up and say, ‘You’re right, we don’t want the federal government intruding and chipping away at our sovereignty, so we better start doing the right thing.’ They should make sure to uphold it.”

‘The culture of the tribe is really what we’re trying to mend—to make sure we stand as a tribe, a unit, one solid group of people saying, “We are who we are.”’ —Harvey Hopkins

Others would like to utilize the Indian Civil Rights Act, passed in 1968 as a way to accomplish clean sovereign governments. The act guarantees equal protection of the law to membership and denies tribal governments the power to pass ex post facto laws. In addition, the act requires consent by tribal governments before states can assume criminal or civil jurisdiction over Indians on Indian land. When the Dry Creek board of directors proposed a new code of conduct in March 2009, one that would subject tribal members to banishment or fines if they demonstrated or picketed against the leadership, critics cried foul and claimed a violation of the Indian Civil Rights Act. The proposal was dropped after a few days.

F

hile the recent reelection of Hopkins shows the democratic process at work, the problem of disenrollment and its possible marriage to casino growth has not been resolved. The struggle to maintain culture and identity while providing financial stability for members is a puzzle still to be worked out by tribes across California. “It’s not just the leadership. Tribal people as a whole need to stop thinking in terms of capitalism and personal gain. We need to start thinking about our communities and our future,” insists Ross Cunningham. “Thousands of people were affected during the termination era and now tribes are eliminating themselves, not only because they don’t know their history—but because of greed.”

CadT 1^WT\XP]b Artists Robert and Mary Fuller McChesney found peace outside the limelight By Gretchen Giles

H

ou don’t know nothin’ about bohemians until you’ve been to the top of Sonoma Mountain. There, at the end of a treacherous five-mile road winding up from the Petaluma Valley floor, sits the modest one-acre undulation of land that’s been tamed, groomed and loved by artists Robert and Mary Fuller McChesney for over 50 years. Given the land in 1952 by friends who hoped to establish an artists colony, the McChesney’s home was built by hand, a one-room boho chalet with a kitchen, a sleeping loft and a bathroom that doubles as a shower room. Phone service was slow to come; electricity, a luxury. Empty wine bottles are still recycled by breaking them into the gravel driveway, food is grown just past the hand-built barbecue pit, and there’s really not much reason to go back down that treacherous hill at all. Robert “Mac� McChesney, a painter who came to critical notice during the San Francisco abstract expression movement that followed WW II, died last year at age 95. Now just 87,

Mary, a writer and renowned sculptor in her own right, lives alone on their compound, surrounded by hundreds of her playful carved creatures and squat mama figures tucked among the lichencovered rocks and under the oaks, spread down hillsides and placed by the side of the house, adorned as it is with bone assemblages that Mac created over decades of tramping the local hillsides and carting back deer remains. The dining room table was made from a piece from the Sturgeon’s Mill, which sold four-foot slabs of old-growth redwood for $10 each back in the ’50s. (“I wanted to build the house from these boards,� Mary says. “But Mac wouldn’t go for it.� She shakes her head. “Square bastard.�) The f loor is stone and cement; the only heat from a fire; the view immense. And then there is the tremendous pleasure of settling down at that dining table and listening to an octogenarian repeatedly use the word “fuck.� Despite her age, Mary McChesney isn’t old, and hearing her casual swearing is really of no more remark than if she were 27 or 37 instead of 87. To look at her, one wouldn’t guess her to be much above 67; to listen to her, well, we’re back

at 27. A retrospective of Mac’s work and some of her own opens June 14 at the Petaluma Art Center. Mary was Mac’s third wife, a marriage that endured and found the couple decamping to Mexico for a year in the late 1940s, living in an artists colony in New Mexico and then back and restless in San Francisco in the early ’50s. Mac, who grew up in the country, hated even the provincial confines of San Francisco’s city limits. When the chance to take over a rural acre high above Petaluma dropped freely into their laps, the couple grabbed it, even though it was then a three-hour trip from the city, and Highway 101 was little more than two-lane road dominated by thundering logging trucks. “We had 10 different couples up here,� Mary remembers, “and none of them took a spot.� With almost no neighbors, the two happily settled into an artistic domesticity that even attracted the attention of Sunset Magazine. The 1953 feature spread on them was eventually killed when the editors determined that their fabulous house with its fabulous views and fabulous occupants was largely illegal.

Mary, the voluble magnet.

Their close friends included such art-world stars as Hassel Smith, Agnes Martin, Ad Reinhardt, “Dick� Diebenkorn, Clay Spohn and even the irascible Clyfford Still—all of whom became wildly famous, while Mac did not.

n a recent cool foggy morning, the top of Sonoma Mountain is shrouded in heavy drizzle. Wandering about the dripping sculpture, trying to figure out which of the three structures might be the actual house, a visitor is hailed by Mary, a diminutive woman with a nearly unlined face in a thick sensible sweater standing down by a monument she has created to her late husband. Pictures of his rugged face from different periods of his life have been screened onto metal plates affixed to the cement mixture she regularly carves from. A studio assistant has fashioned a facsimile of his ever-present cowboy hat out of a chimney cap, a recycling effort which the frugal Mac would have greatly approved of. The Petaluma Art Center retrospective was organized in great part to exhibit Mary’s work, but she’s having little of it. Her focus is on honoring her husband’s oeuvre. A new widow, McChesney is far from alone. Exhibition curator and selfdescribed “No. 1 fan� Dennis Calabi is there, preparing to go into Mac’s studio to choose canvases for the show. Artists Mark Grieve and Ilana Spector, who live just below, are bringing lunch. Their late-spring art dinner for 100 out in the Black Rock Desert was canceled due to electrical storms, and they have a lot of frittata. “I don’t like showing with [Mac],� Mary explains, making tea inside the warm house. “We showed together at Bolles Gallery and there was a big write-up about it and it was all about Mac, and in the last paragraph there was a sentence like, ‘And Mary was in the show, too.’� The phone rings, taking Mary away, and Calabi explains the exhibition’s arc. “The theme is ‘Fifty Years on Sonoma Mountain,’ so we’ll start on the early ’50s and go up from there. A lot of previous shows have focused on the ’40s, but that’s the beginning of Mac’s work. We’ll have several pieces from each time period.

From the earlier work to the end, there are repeated themes, personal stories, yet Mac just didn’t get stuck in ruts.� Which themes? Calabi pauses and looks around at the art on the walls. “The grid pattern, after the mid-’40s, that continues to the end,� he says, gesturing to a piece. “He always used different ways to address it, though. And the bones motif, which occurred before the actual physical use of bones. And, of course, the circle.� And indeed, McChesney’s canvases pulse with grids and circles—a whole series evoking galaxies—are framed with lines and explore the random beauty of nature. Calibi explains that McChesney often started with found images—particularly when he taught, using students’ discards— and painted out the ungainly stuff, saving just the “happy accidents� before reordering the page. “The Arena series was his most important series,� he says. “Very accessible, very remarkable. It’s marked by his use of enamel and sand on canvas. They not only speak of everything that’s great about his work, but also why he wasn’t properly recognized. “In the ’50s, the ‘ism’ of the time was ab-ex, action painting specifically. He used a subconscious style of composing, thoughtful, meticulous and sort of mystical. All the stuff,� Calabi laughs, “that wasn’t in vogue. It was an outsider attitude in a world that wants everyone to fit in a box. A commercial weakness but an artistic strength.� Calabi, who is a specialist in conserving and restoring paintings, hopes that the Petaluma show will in some small way rectify Mac’s low place on the art-world totem. He is even considering opening his own gallery to sell work by Mac and others whom he feels just never got the recognition they deserve. “If it doesn’t have major representation, people think that there must be something wrong with it,� he says. “They don’t trust their eyeballs.� Speaking specifically of Mac, he says, “He was a major artist, but because of his refusal to move to New York, his prickly personality and robustly Stalinist politics, his heavy drinking and the fact that there were no galleries in San Francisco—he got overlooked. Every region has its group of really hot people who never got the light of day. Mac got fabulous reviews by the best critics of his time. “If they’d moved to New York, it would have happened.� Grieve and Spector have arrived, bearing unconscionable amounts of food. Mary bustles about the table, making a salad. Everyone’s looking hungry. Time to leave. Walking back up the steep sculpturestrewn slope to the car, the visitor can hear Mary clearly from inside the house. “Let’s eat!� she cries lustily. ‘Fifty Years on Sonoma Mountain,’ paintings and sculpture by Robert McChesney and Mary Fuller McChesney, opens with a free public reception on Sunday, June 14, from 2pm to 4pm. 230 Lakeville St. (at East Washington), Petaluma. 707.766.5200.

1XV 1P]S 1PaS Beloved Shakespeare comedy gets ‘In the Mood’ at Sixth Street

By David Templeton

<

uch Ado About Nothing is not only one of Shakespeare’s funniest, best and most beloved comedies, but, with some of the Bard’s sharpest and wittiest repartee, it is one of Shakespeare’s most accessible plays for modern audiences. So it’s a pleasure to report that the Sixth Street Playhouse’s 1940s version of Much Ado, In the Mood, retains most of the original Elizabethan text. The original inspiration to marry Much Ado with songs like “In the Mood� and “Apple Blossom Time� belongs to the late Patrick Watkins, who staged a similar version in 1997 at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville. That production, which opened just before Watkins’ death of AIDS, used John Fitzgerald’s adaptation of Shakespeare’s original. Since that first production 12 years ago, Fitzgerald has dreamed of resurrecting Watkins’ USO/Much Ado musical hybrid, and now, under the direction of John Craven, an additionally reworked version has come to Sonoma County.

At a captured Italian villa during WW II, a USO camp has been established by American entertainer Madame Leonora (written as a man in Shakespeare’s original, here played beautifully by Elly Lichenstein), whose daughter, Hero (a delightful Marjorie Rose Taylor), is among the women of the troupe. When a band of soldiers arrive for a few weeks of R&R, a series of romantic entanglements are set in motion. Claudio (Tyler Costin) is the young second-in-command to seasoned soldier Don Pedro (Paul Huberty), whose jealous half-brother Don John (a glowering Anthony Abate) seeks to derail Claudio’s spontaneous betrothal to Hero. Meanwhile, another solider, the confirmed bachelor Benedick (Tim Kniffin, outstanding and frequently hilarious) engages in spirited battle-of-the-sexes verbal combat with Hero’s cousin Beatrice (Danielle Cain, all ice and fire), who swore off love long ago. Some of the play’s most memorable dialogue comes from the rich put-downs and taunting launched by these two warriors of wit. Don Pedro’s friendly conspiracy to trick Benedick and Beatrice into falling for each other sets up yet another series of misunderstandings and confusions, all of which are ultimately resolved in Shakespeare’s traditional, last-minute, over-the-top collision of coincidence and forgiveness. A lot of the plotting is outrageous enough when left in Shakespeare’s original setting, but when moved to the 1940s, it takes on an aura of dreamlike surrealism and farce that only emphasizes the fun. The songs, when they occur, seem less easily integrated than one expects from a musical, but the tunes are well chosen and cleverly presented (there’s no band, only a large vintage phonograph player). The musical highlights are Lichenstein’s early performance of “More Than You Know,â€? Taylor’s scaldingly sweet “Someone to Watch Over Meâ€? and Kniffin’s show-stopping rendition of “Come Rain or Come Shine.â€? The cast is almost uniformly fine, with some excellent work done by the supporting players, notably Jeff CotĂŠ as Don John’s ruffian accomplice Borachio and Chris Murphy as the loopy constable Dogberry, who uses words the way chefs make omelettes. Murphy wisely slows down Dogberry’s onslaught of words so we can hear every tortured twist of baff led verbiage. The production is not without flaws. As often happens when Shakespeare’s settings are altered, the translation to modern times is occasionally jarring; the notion of someone literally dying of heartbreak is a bit much even for the 1940s. There was also a perceptible tentativeness on opening night that most likely will have disappeared by now. Quibbles aside, this is a highly entertaining riff on a literary classic, made fresh and frisky by a first-rate cast whose sense of fun is nothing if not infectious. With Shakespeare’s masterful words blended with tuneful uplift of big band favorites, this is a show that will certainly put audiences in the mood. ‘In the Mood’ runs Thursday–Sunday through June 28 at the Sixth Street Playhouse. Thursday– Sunday at 8pm; also Saturday–Sunday at 2pm. 52 W. Sixth St., Santa Rosa. $14–$20. 707.523.4185.

THE BOHEMIAN

he best comedies are always uncertain about what side of the line they fall on. Sometimes, a tragedy seems about to break out at any minute. Departures, the surprise best foreign film winner at this year’s Oscars, proves that there’s just as much potential for humor in a death comedy as there is in a sex comedy. Departures begins with a kind of sketch: two men from the undertakers come to the “encoffining� of a beautiful girl. The ceremony is exquisitely solemn—corpse-arranging is yet another fine Japanese art—including cloth folding, cleaning and anointing. While sponging the body, Daigo (Masahiro Motoki), the younger of the two encoffiners, finds out that the deceased had an embarrassing secret, a debacle that he handles quickly. He wasn’t always that cool. In flashback, we learn that Daigo played the cello in a bad Tokyo orchestra. We see his performance of Beethoven’s Ninth, performed for about a dozen grim-faced music fans. Laid off afterward, Daigo is in serious debt, since his expensive new cello set him back some $186,000. Without a better idea, Daigo decides to leave Tokyo to reclaim his family home in the country in Yamagata Prefecture. Daigo’s adoring wife, Mika (Ryoko Hirosue), agrees to the plan, seemingly without doubts. Looking for a job, Daigo finds a newspaper ad for work helping out “Departures.� Sasaki (Tsutomu Yamazaki), the boss,

looks Daigo up and down. “You’re not depressing,â€? he judges and tosses Daigo’s rĂŠsumĂŠ on the floor without reading it, hiring Daigo right on the spot. It turns out that the ad was a misprint. Daigo will be working not with departures but with the departed—this business sells and fills coffins. Though old Sasaki claims that fate sent the young man there, Daigo can’t accept it. He hides his new job from his wife; when Mika finds out, she regards her husband as an untouchable and leaves him. What follows are slices of life in the death trade. Daigo becomes aware that what had seemed like a job was actually a vocation. He’s very good at handling the formalities and the harsh situations: untimely deaths, suicides by charcoal inhalation or the aftermath of a motorcycle crash. The long winters in Yamagata set the mood of mourning. If Daigo doesn’t look depressing, he’s serious enough for the occasions, and he has his own dark issues: Daigo’s father left him and his mother when he was young. Certainly, his new boss is a fine replacement for any lost dad. Sasaki is a man among men. Yamazaki, never to be forgotten as the John Wayne–like trucker in the 1985 Tampopo, is an actor of absolute gravity and unreal smoothness, and he gives a top movie star’s performance in this role. Yamazaki’s suaveness just gets richer as the film goes along. To watch Sasaki at work is to sort of wish you were dead already. He has the aspect of a magician, explaining the steps to the mourners: “I will now affix the lid . . .â€? Likewise, he comes across like an alchemist, transforming a distinctly green corpse into the likeness of a sleeping, peaceful wife. Yamagata Prefecture supposedly has a reputation as a region of bumpkins. It’s easy on the eyes; the snow-covered volcanic cones and the wetlands make you think of Washington state. Maybe the earthiness of the people is a regional-comedy touch in all the characters, from the pastoral, tranquil Sasaki to his salty, forward secretary (Kimiko Yo, a pleasure to watch). The laughter or family fights that break out at funerals might be part of this movie’s rural, working-class eye. Departures is backward looking; it favors farmland and old-fashioned wood-fired bathhouses over the Tokyo mania. It celebrates old-style, hands-on craft. Director Yojiro Takita has impeccable timing and a constant bubbliness. He expertly mixes what seems like unmixable material. In one moment, clouds of swans fly as Daigo practices his cello in the countryside; in an earlier scene, Daigo emits a Jimmy Stewart–style gobble of panic after Sasaki casts him as a model corpse for a training film. (Daigo is sort of a fussbudget; caught by his wife after having hidden the purchase of the cello, he dithers his hands—the cartoon gesture of a husband found out in a lie.) Departures goes long. One perfect scene— a crematorium operator’s tale of a Christmas Eve he once spent—goes on to explain itself, and spoils the mood. The reconciliation of Daigo to his father’s memory stalls, even after it’s clearly inevitable. Still, Departures is a movie about death that’s suffused with the joy of living. ‘Departures’ opens on Friday, June 12, at the Rialto Lakeside Cinemas, 551 Summerfield Road, Santa Rosa. 707.525.4840.

Broken Sound Sculptures The music of America and England often exists in entirely separate circles, but concentricity was achieved for a brief time in the late ’90s electronica scene, with labels like Quannum, Asphodel and Mush in the States, and Ninja Tune, Warp and MoWax in Britain, erasing borders both geographical and musical. No artist personifies this cross-pollination like DJ Vadim, who was born in the former Soviet Union, raised in London and now splits his time between New York and Port-au-Prince. Vadim’s series of USSR albums for Ninja Tune between 1996 and 2002 straddled the head-nod beatmaking of Japan’s DJ Krush and the scattered sounds of D.C.’s DJ Spooky, and placed Vadim squarely at the forefront of an exciting time in music. His more recent albums Sound Catcher and U Can’t Lurn Imaginashun have been noticeably tinged with reggae, R&B, old soul and ’70s jazz, ensuring a lively dance f loor when DJ Vadim comes to the Juke Joint on Thursday, June 11, at the Hopmonk Tavern. 230 Petaluma Ave., Sebastopol. 9pm. $10. 707.829.7300.

Death Angel’s resurrection sparks a surge in Bay Area thrash n the late ’80s, when thrash legends Death Angel were still teenagers from Concord, they reminded me to pay attention to heavy metal. Earlier that decade, college courses in jazz and classical music diverted me from the hard rock I loved in the ’70s, and outside class, I was busy following punk and hip-hop, almost missing cool post-classic, pre-thrash bands like Iron Maiden and Motorhead. Death Angel’s 1987 speed-metal debut The Ultra-Violence, along with discs by Metallica and Megadeth, slapped me with a wake-up call to a new wave of metal. “Bay Area thrash,â€? as the style came to be known, was the apex of metal’s dynamic new sound—hyperspeedy and brittle, manic and pummeling, balancing apocalyptic lyrics with energetic, catchy and complex music. While on tour supporting their acclaimed third disc Act III in 1990, the band suffered a bus accident that led to an untimely breakup. I never saw Death Angel live, but a few years later I caught the Organization, the ďŹ rst and best of the various band members’ post-DA projects. The Organization (just DA, minus singer Mark Osegueda) packed a sweaty Railroad Square gig at the old Santa Rosa rock club Magnolia’s, blasting the club-goers with a sound mutated from DA’s pure thrash into a charged hybrid of classic and alt-rock. Like music clubs, the heavy music scene changes. Since the heyday of thrash, metal has passed through grunge, rap-rock and all sorts of avant-rock noise. When Death Angel (who reformed in 2001 for a beneďŹ t and have since released two discs) return to Railroad Square this Saturday—their last local gig before a two-month tour of Europe—they’re veterans facing two local acts who reect both the old and the new. Seeds of Hate maintain the brooding, seething crunch of classic thrash. Cage the Rage cover recent metal acts, bringing funk and abstract guitar sonics from the late ’90s rap-rock era. Death Angel sticks to classic thrash on their latest disc Killing Season. “Sonic Beatdownâ€? and “Carnival Justiceâ€? sound as peppy and gruff as when thrash was new, while cuts like “Resurrection Machineâ€? work with trickier hook writing. The scene may have changed in the past two decades, but Death Angel’s rebirth is a reminder that you can still return to what you dig. Death Angel, Seeds of Hate and Cage the Rage turn it up on Saturday, June 13, at the Last Day Saloon. 120 Fifth St., Santa Rosa. 9pm. $15. 707.545.5876.

Hymn for Her get by on the soles of their shoes he origin of Hymn for Her sounds like something out of a fairy tale. Two musicians travel to an inn by the sea, intent on writing a book. A kindly innkeeper provides free room and board in exchange for songs played to the dinner crowd. And while the magical two weeks doesn’t end in a book, it does produce one baby and an album of sweet folk Americana. Now, Maggi Jane and Pierce Ternay—once a member of the early ’90s hip-hop group the Goats—spend their days touring and performing tunes from their 2008 release, Year of the Golden Pig, to crowds across the country. It’s a family affair since their two-year old daughter, Diver, and dog, Pokey, are along for the ride. “We call it stompgrass music,� says Jane, on the phone from Los Angeles. “We thought that was so original until we looked it up on the internet and saw that it was a style of music already.� But rather than being derivative, Hymn for Her might just be at the forefront of a musical movement that’s not content with playing straightforward bluegrass or folk. During live performances, the duo plays in a dynamic fashion, switching between different instruments while sharing one microphone. “We have a bass drum and a hi-hat that we play with lots of different acoustic instruments,� Jane says. Ukulele, banjo and glockenspiel are all featured during a typical set. “Once in a while we’ll pull out this thing called a Lowebow,� she adds. “Our friend John Lowe in Memphis makes them. It’s like a cigar-box guitar. We have to practice a couple songs on it. Maybe we will be using it.� Not content with the normal drive-play-eat-drive rut of the typical touring band, Jane and Ternay are using breaks in the tour to record their second album. This creative solution is no surprise from a band that once walked an entire 218 miles from Philly to D.C., playing shows along the way. (“Screw the Van,� a 17minute documentary, documents the band’s Whole Steps Towards Peace tour.) “We’re recording in people’s houses wherever we stay. We have three or four tracks already,� Jane says. And following the tradition of countless American families on the go, Jane says they are searching currently on the hunt for an Airstream trailer—but not solely for comfort and style. “We wanted to record in the Airstream while we travel because they have a good sound inside,� Jane says with a laugh. Hymn For Her stompgrasses it up on Thursday, June 11, at Ace in the Hole (3100 Gravenstein Highway, Sebastopol. 6pm. Free. 829.1101) and on Friday, June 12, at Aubergine (755 Petaluma Ave., Sebastopol. 5pm. 707.827.3460).

Inside India.Arie’s acoustic soul By Alan Sculley

8

ndia.Arie’s overriding goal as a music artist hasn’t changed over the decade in which she’s been making music professionally. “I wanted to make music that moved people in a positive way,� says Arie in a recent phone interview. “I wanted to touch people and make people feel good, and think. That was my goal.� Arie began writing songs while attending college in Savannah, Ga., and got her big break with a song released on a compilation CD in Atlanta, winning her a second stage slot at a pair of Lilith Fair shows. A scout from Motown Records saw Arie, signed her, and in 2001 the label released her debut album. Immediately, Arie made good on her goal of affecting people with her music. Acoustic Soul eventually topped 2 million copies sold and earned Arie seven Grammy Award nominations. She appears June 14 at the Harmony Festival. Her second album, the 2002 release Voyage to India, did nearly as well, topping 1 million copies sold and winning two Grammys. Four years later, her third album Testimony: Vol. 1, Life & Relationship soared to No. 1 on the Billboard magazine album chart, but by that time, Arie was struggling inside. A turning point came in October 2006, when

she realized she had hit a crucial point in her development as a musician and as a person. “It reached a critical mass after I finished touring with Testimony: Vol. 1,� Arie says. “I had this moment where I just lost it. I just completely blew my top. I knew that day that something had to change, and I cried for a few days after that. And then I was like, ‘How am I going to shape my life?’� One aspect of Arie’s dilemma was the age-old battle between art and commerce. While Arie had for the most part been true to her art, she realized that she could no longer stand to make concessions to the marketplace as she had done previously. “I knew that my production decisions I made [on Acoustic Soul] had to be more in line with what was on the radio, so I did that,� she admits. “It wasn’t how I viewed those songs. I did that even more so on my second album. I felt I was compromising, and I did compromise. I like that album now, in hindsight. When I listen to it, it’s nice. I stand by the songs, definitely, but the production— uh, sometimes not so much.� Arie felt she got closer to staying true to her art on Testimony: Vol. 1, but wasn’t able to fully execute some of the musical and emotional ideas that she had for her music. A key change along the way was a move from Motown Records to Universal Republic— ironically owned by the same parent company—after she decided she could no longer compromise her art in an attempt to achieve greater popularity. Then there’s the biggest lesson of all that Arie has learned. “It’s OK that everybody doesn’t like me. I wanted everybody to like me. Now it’s OK if they don’t, on a personal level and in the musical realm.� On Testimony: Vol. 2 Love & Politics, Arie says she is more true to herself than ever. She took control of production on the CD, sandwiching the recording of basic tracks with a live band around three months of preproduction and a full year of recording lead vocals, guest musician parts, overdubs and, in the case of a few songs, editing out parts to create more stripped-down final versions of those tunes. Musically, the CD isn’t a huge departure from her previous three albums. She still bases several songs around her acoustic guitar, but the common description of Arie’s music being “acoustic soul� more than ever feels too narrow. The song “Therapy� leans more toward pop, while “Ghetto� has elements of an African-influenced brand of soul. A handful of others (the sunny “Yellow,� the edgy and funky “Better Way�) find Arie beefing up the instrumentation and further broadening her stylistic reach. The purity and honesty in her new music is enriching Arie’s musical life on another level—by making her live performances more satisfying than ever. “It’s been really fun because of this album,� Arie says. “I love this album. It’s the first time I really feel that I presented myself the way I see myself. So being able to sing those songs live feels really good.� India.Arie headlines at 7:30pm during the day’s festivities on Sunday, June 14, at the Harmony Festival, running June 12–14. Sonoma County Fairgrounds, 1350 Bennett Valley Road, Santa Rosa. Single-day tickets $30–$40. For info and complete lineup, see www.harmonyfestival.com.

More testimony on the magical power of the Three Wolf Moon shirt adies, this shirt is not just for the fellas. Sure, the Three Wolf Moon shirt may make it impossible for us to stay away from an alpha male who has donned this beauty, a wiry mass of irresistibly man-hair peeking out from behind its inky fabric, the three balletically graceful creatures of the night stretched over his strapping beer gut, howling at a bright moon that makes his three-day beard almost invisible. But sisters, this is a woman’s world! Don’t let the dudes hog all the magic that this drool-worthy piece of high fashion brings. When I saw my snaggle-toothed neighbor Noreen sporting the trio, wooing the mailman in her favorite see-through sweatpants, I almost dropped my Bud Light in amazement. Lighting another Pall Mall, I wondered if they had sizes for those expecting! My unborn fetus kicked in excitement. I borrowed some money from my new boyfriend and ordered one, rush shipping of course. When it arrived in my PO box a day later (I could barely sleep on my pullout couch that night), I caught the mailman who had been flirting with Noreen trying to steal it. I promptly taught him a thing or two about jackin’ a woman’s Three Wolf Moon shirt. After a swift kick to his manly parts (I could already feel the power of the wolf trio), I immediately stripped off my Daddy’s Little Princess shirt and threw it on. I climbed back into my Pinto and put in my favorite Nickelback CD to celebrate. I wore this shirt every day of my pregnancy—even in labor!—and my baby was born in 12 minutes. After the delivery, my new baby boy thanked the doc and invited him over for a round of poker. He’s now Mensa’s youngest member ever, and made Steve Jobs cry at the latest Apple conference. I’m here to testify, this shirt was not just made for a man. The three wolves arching in ecstasy toward the moon are symbols of the sisterhood, are they not? Since that first day I stretched the shirt over my belly, I knew I was destined for big things. I was promoted to head checker at Wal-Mart while still on maternity leave, and have had five shotgun marriages successfully annulled. This shirt will change your life! Cassandra Landry

Hot literary events that warm without weather enjoy gazing at the various lit calendars and getting a sense of the literary treasurers and experiments that are coming up. Here are some of the highlights through the first half of the summer: David Sedaris The comic master appears with his sixth book of essays, When You Are Engulfed in Flames, at Book Passage. Admission is free, although preferred seating, and perhaps the only seating, is available with purchase of book. Monday, June 15, at 7pm. 51 Tamal Vista Blvd., Corte Madera. 415.927.0960. Poetry Flash fundraiser featuring a reading by New York poet Cynthia Kraman, The Touch, with Poetry Flash editors Joyce Jenkins and Richard Silberg, Deconstruction of the Blues. The event marks the inaugural return of “Sunset Poetry by the Bay� at its new location, Studio 333. Leave it to poets to have a fundraiser that only asks for a $5 donation. Wednesday, June 17, at 7pm. 333-A Caledonia St., Sausalito. 415.331.8272. Gary Snyder and Tom Killion appear at Toby’s Feed Barn in Point Reyes Station, hosted by Point Reyes Books. The event is a benefit for Columbia School House Cultural Center in Nevada City and the Mt. Tamalpais Conservation Project. With food and beverages served, it’s a steal at $20. Saturday, June 20, at 7pm. 11315 State Route 1, Point Reyes Station. 415.663.1542. Robert Bly (above) appears under the auspices of the International Association of Sufism, as part of a twoday Sufi conference at Dominican. Bly remains a force of nature in his early 80s, reading his poetry to Sufi music and a mass of whirling dervishes. Tickets, through www. ias.org, are $20 before June 16, $30 after. Friday, June 26, at 7pm. Angelico Hall, 50 Acacia Ave., San Rafael. The Marin Poetry Center has the right idea. Its Summer Traveling Show is sending poets out in packs of five each week to different venues around the county. Tuesdays in June, a rotating host introduces the poets and reins them in. It’s a good way to sample talent and check out some different scenes. All events are at 7:30pm. For lineups of poets and extended schedule, visit www.marinpoetrycenter.com. Napa Valley Writers Conference One of the best conferences of its kind in the country, now in its 29th year, boasts a lineup of luminaries. Fiction writers include ZZ Packer, Antonya Nelson, Robert Boswell, and Peter Ho Davies. Poets include Elizabeth Alexander, who had the honor of reading at President Obama’s inaugural. The great thing about this conference is that individuals can attend readings or lectures for a nominal fee, without paying tuition for the entire conference. It runs Sunday–Thursday, July 26–30. For dates and venues, check www.napawritersconf.org. Bart Schneider

Meet Blue • Cat of theWeek

Meet Wolfie • Dog of theWeek

Is this cat gorgeous or what?! A stunningly goodlooking kitty with the cutest, just slightly crossed blue eyes and adorable little tufted feet. Very sociable and friendly and just loves being the center of attention – can you blame her when she looks as good as this? To learn more about adopting Blue or many other homeless animals at the Sonoma Humane Society, please visit us at 5345 Hwy 12 West, Santa Rosa (@ Llano Rd), open everyday from 12-6pm, or check us out online at www.SonomaHumane.org

A Chihuahua mix (although the mix is more apparent than the Chihuahua!), he's described as being a “bit mouthy”. Very lively and loving and eager to please and he just loves to have us push Cheerios under the door of his room at the Shelter. To learn more about adopting Wolfie or many other homeless animals at the Sonoma Humane Society, please visit us at 5345 Hwy 12 West, Santa Rosa (@ Llano Rd), open everyday from 12-6pm, or check us out online at www.SonomaHumane.org
