For the Good Of the Game I find myself at a loss for words to begin such a heartfelt thank you letter to writer Gary Singh for a truly wonderful article on our father

Umberto Abronzino (“Soccer King,” Silicon Alleys, Aug 8). Gary was able to put into words the essence of what our father was to soccer and the great number of people he reached through the game. This article has brought many proud tears to those of us who have read this. Our father was, as Gary wrote, a humble Italian immigrant who loved the game of soccer and all the people he was fortunate to have met with the same love and passion for the sport.

In our father’s eyes, this was a game that many can play with little boundaries for physical attributes, large or small, short or tall.

My sister and I find ourselves on a new endeavor now. We are usually the donors to wonderful causes. Now, with the help of many friends and

family, we are working to raise funds to honor our father’s legacy with a permanent structure at Watson Park.

This “wonderful,” “great” and “heartwarming” article Gary has written has become our cornerstone to build on, our foundation for strength, and our inspiration to reach our goal.

On my behalf and that of my sister, Linda Abronzino, our close family and friends, we thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts for publishing this article.

ALDO ABRONZINO | SAN JOSE

When in Rome ...

“Bard Code” (Cover story, Aug 15). Seriously? I suppose I should read the article first, but I actually

have to make a living, working. A satirical romp? I hope I can fit that in between the West Coast Nationals Giant Car Show and the Body Art Expo.

Metro reads like The Roman Empire Daily. You guys are rolling in the idiocracy with class and panache. Will people get to pick their tent city based on the DJ or band and what sort of 2for-1 specials are being offered?

STEVE SIEGEL

Thank a Vet Anyone who is a veteran of the armed services has seen the bumper sticker reading “Thank a vet” or had that awkward moment when a friend, coworker or drunken barfly says, “Thank you for your service.” Don’t get me wrong; I appreciate these gestures. I am very proud of my service in the U.S. Army. However, it would be very nice if, instead of paying lip service to soldiers, these same people would write their congressmen, senators and president and demand better care for our wounded and families of our fallen heroes.

San Jose offers historical surprises to sightseers willing to slow down and ditch their cars

Walking tours and cycling tours are now emerging from between the cracks of the sidewalks, like glorious weeds finally seeing the light of day, amid the routines of everyday San Jose consciousness.

With that, we begin with the Chinese. Currently at the San Jose

Institute of Contemporary Art, one finds “City Beneath the City,” essentially an installation by artist Rene Yung showcasing artifacts excavated from the site of the forgotten 19th-century Market Street Chinatown in downtown San Jose.

The Chinatown was located right where the Fairmont now sits.

On Aug. 30, there will be a twohour participatory extension of the installation via a historical walking tour. SJICA curator Susan O’Malley, along with Yung and historian Connie Yu, will lead observer/participants down the street, from the San Jose ICA to the former Chinatown site, armed with ancient Sanborn maps.

Tracing the past to the present, the trio of Yung, Yu and O’Malley will merge the landscape with the stories of those who set up shop over 100 years ago.

“In a place like Silicon Valley, our past isn’t very obvious,” O’Malley said.

“We think there is a lot of interest in the stories of people that were here before us.”

Yung specializes in ways of bringing the artist experience out of the gallery and into everyday space, while Yu is already a well-versed local historian and documenter of the Chinese experience in Santa Clara Valley.

O’Malley says the two of them are perfect candidates to lead this tour.

“People want to feel a sense of place, a connection to a landscape,” O’Malley said. “For us, being a contemporary art space, we’re interested in how artists interpret our environment.

So it seemed like a natural way of extending this exhibition into the real world. Sometimes our experience in an exhibition space is a little solitary, and this is a way for us to connect with one another and experience it as a group, as opposed to as an isolated individual.”

On another front, SPUR San Jose, a new pilot offshoot of the San Francisco Planning and Urban Research Association, is currently examining the local San Jose landscape

from a variety of perspectives. Come Aug. 26, SPUR will stage a free bicycle tour that begins in downtown.

“Take a Spin Through San Jose” will start at Philz Coffee, then traverse the new bike lanes on Third Street and through the Hensley Historic District, Japantown and the Northside before continuing to SJSU, Diridon Station, the Rosegarden, Shasta-Hanchett and more. The tour is free for anyone with a bicycle.

Since the average San Jose resident is surgically attached to a car, he or she rarely contemplates the possibility of moving through time and space without one, so folks might not realize just how simple it can be to explore their own city via bicycle. SPUR San Jose director Leah Toeniskoetter says the objective for the tour is exactly that.

“The goal is to let people know a couple of different neighborhoods and the best route to get from downtown to these neighborhoods,” she said.

“And to let them know, through riding, how long it takes. It’s not that long of a ride at all.”

Since it launched earlier this year, SPUR has staged numerous events offering a fresh perspective on urbanism, usually attracting a wide variety of interested parties. The bicycle tour is yet another endeavor that should do the same.

“We have a number of different policy goals that we work on, but one, for sure, is transportation and providing options for people outside of the car,” Toeniskoetter explained.

“San Jose is going to continue to grow, with more and more people coming in, so if all of those people are going on the road, we’re going to have a lot of congestion. So part of our goal is to show people that there are other ways to get around besides a car, and to show people that you can do it.”

City Beneath the City Historical Walking Tour, Aug. 30, 5–7pm, $30 per person, includes family-style dinner at P.F. Chang’s. Advance reservation is required: 408.283.8155.

Take a Spin Through San Jose, Aug. 26, 10–11:30am, free. 118 Paseo de San Antonio. 408.510.5688.

So how then do you explain the endurance of Mountain View’s Milk Pail Market?

Located right across the street

from Safeway, the 38-year-old market has carved out a deep niche—one filled with rarefied cheese, eclectically flavored ravioli and great deals on produce.

Owner Steve Rasmussen bought what was a bankrupt milk-processing facility in 1974 and renamed it the Milk Pail Market. The store was originally a drive-through milk shop that pasteurized its own milk and sold it in glass bottles.

As more grocery stores began to open in the area, Rasmussen figured he had to stay ahead of the competition, and so the Milk Pail became “a little alternative food business sort of thing” that sold food in bulk to value-conscious shoppers and those looking for out-of-theordinary ingredients way before Whole Foods Market started doing the same thing.

In time, Rasmussen added produce, vast quantities of which are now piled up around the edges of the open-air store.

In spite of the prepackaged sameness that defines the retail world today, Rasmussen has stayed in business by going the opposite route and offering specialty items one is not likely to find elsewhere and deals on produce by buying directly from producers.

Because the market caters to an international clientele, the produce goes way beyond iceberg lettuce and Red Delicious apples. I spotted a green cauliflower for 39 cents a pound and beautiful-looking Indian eggplant the size of cue balls.

So when Trader Joe’s opened nearby a dozen years ago, it didn’t hurt Rasmussen’s business. It helped.

Trader Joe’s shoppers came from near and far, and many also made their way to Rasmussen’s store on the corner of California Avenue and San Antonio Road. Same thing when Whole Foods opened on El Camino Real. Shoppers looking for the organic and specialty products at Whole Foods ended up at

the Milk Pail, too.

“I think the atmosphere of the business is a very engaging for a certain part of the population,” Rasmussen says. “It’s very experiential.”

Rasmussen calls that “certain part” of the population “thrill-seekers” who are looking for something else in their shopping cart than the latest product from Kraft or Nestle.

Cheese has been a big part of the Milk Pail’s success, too. When he first opened, Ramussen began selling sharp cheddar cheese from Wisconsin in 10-pound blocks, and he sold a lot of it.

Then he had the bright idea of selling that cheese in smaller pieces. There were no digital scales or wrapping machines then, so he bought a baby scale, several boxes of Saran wrap and rubber bands, and hand wrote the labels.

Now, he sells more than 300 kinds of foreign and domestic cheese. And because of his contacts in the dairy world (his family used to own an East Bay dairy), he was able to get his hands on some really good cheese.

A walk through the store offers a tour of the world via cheese. I found one of my favorite cheeses, a smoky sheep-milk cheese from Spain called idiazabal, for just $9.29 a pound. I also spotted the first Filipino cheese I’ve ever seen, a semisoft cow’s-milk cheese called kesong puti.

Rasmussen is something of a cheese evangelist and hosts cheese-tasting and cheese-making events.

“I really want to get them excited about what’s possible,” he says.

He was even invited to do a cheese class at nearby Google when the Milk Pail sold more “Google Offers” coupons in a shorter period of time than any other business.

If you like cheese, seek out the store’s own label of fromage blanc. It comes from a herd of cows Rasmussen owns in Northern California. The cheese is the base for their line of ravioli, too. The store creates unlikely flavors like Thai curry cheddar and horseradish harvarti.

Safeway shopper or thrill-seeker? I’d rather be a thrill-seeker.

Labor Day weekend marks the 31st-annual LIVERMORE VALLEY HARVEST WINE CELEBRATION. Sunday, Sept. 2, and Monday, Sept. 3, between noon and 5pm, area wineries will offer wine, food, art and music to ticket holders. Here’s how it breaks down: On Sept. 2, 29 wineries will host festivities at their tasting rooms across Livermore Valley, and 12 more wineries will be pouring at either Concannon Vineyard or Wente Vineyards on Tesla Road.

All locations will offer wine tasting, food vendors, local artisans and festive music. Celebration guests are invited to ride complimentary shuttle buses between the wineries. Free parking will be available at Robertson Park in Livermore, where guests can board buses and transfer between routes during the day.

On Sept. 3, 38 Livermore Valley wineries will present a more intimate affair that includes events like a “bottle your own wine” at Cedar Mountain Winery, El Sol Winery and Eckert Estate Winery, a beekeeping demonstration at El Sol Winery and a barrel tasting at Mitchell Katz Winery.

The Harvest Wine Celebration is a fundraiser for the Livermore Valley Winegrowers Association. All 2012 Harvest Wine Celebration tickets are good for admission both days—there are no single-day tickets. Tickets are $55 each when purchased in advance, $65 at the event. Designated driver tickets are $10 and are also valid both days.

Food at all winery locations will be locally prepared and priced at under $8. Admission price includes a commemorative Livermore Valley wine glass, tastings of at least two wine varietals from each participating winery, official event program and discounts on wine purchases. Wineries are open only to ticket holders with event wristbands and no outside food is permitted.

Tickets are available online at www.LVwine.org and at all participating Livermore Valley wineries, the Wine Steward in Pleasanton, First Street Wine Company and the Winemaker’s PourHouse in Livermore, and at Bay Area Safeway stores. For information, cal 925.447.WINE.—Stett Holbrook

*wed UP & GO

Blank Club, San Jose Wed – 9pm; free There was a time back in the early ’90s when being a poppunk band meant you were raw, sweaty and underground. Locals Up & Go play with that same ’90s style—aggressive and catchy, but not syrupy sweet and not pitch perfect. These guys wouldn’t know auto-tune if it smacked them in the face. Where they differ from the standard Lookout Records sound is by extending past the three-chord simplicity of the era. Yet they haven’t sacrificed any hooks in the process. It rides that middle ground of crazyballsy attitude and infectious

songwriting that made pop-punk one of the coolest under-theradar scenes before Green Day released Dookie and let the whole world in on it. (AC)

SODA

Blank Club, San Jose Fri – 8pm; $10 Tony Sly’s death on Aug. 1 shocked not only the South Bay, where he built his career as frontman for No Use for a Name, but the punk community around the world.

It also hung a cloud over what was set to be a joyous occasion: the reunion of Steve Caballero’s popular pop-punk band Soda. The connections are too numerous to

run down, but first and foremost was the fact that Sly himself was on the bill, set to perform what in another bizarre twist was already a benefit for the family of late South Bay scene staple Steve Larkin. However, Caballero and his bandmates have rightfully turned the show into a bit of a tribute to Sly as well, honoring him with one of his own songs in their set.

Jonny Manak and the Depressives and Cova will also perform. (SP)

music festival, Think and Die Thinking. It was a big success, and this year Think and Die Thinking returns for another three days of punk and indie music at the Billy DeFrank Center, spotlighting bands with women, people of color and members from the queer and transgender communities. The big difference this year is they’ll be having a lot more nonmusic acts, including performance artists and comedians. Also there will be workshops on topics like feminism, battling racism and more. Some of the bands playing this year include Wild Assumptions, Sourpatch, Yulia, Weird TV, Street Eaters, Wild Moth, Fat Transfer and Ugly Winner. (AC)

Sure, their early stuff was insane—ska for one second, electronic noises the next, punkrock moments later, and all packed with crazy, self-depreciating lyrics. But BtMI have really reeled it since the release of last year’s “Vacation.” They’ve demonstrated a true gift in songwriting (and

JK<M< D8IK@E Mountain Winery, Saratoga Sun – 7:30; $45-$99.50 “I’ve always wanted to play Hardly Strictly Bluegrass ... and thanks to you, I’m one step closer to my goal”—Steve Martin, onstage at Hardly Strictly Bluegrass ’09 to a crowd of, dunno, 50 million people?

It gets mobbed up there. Despite

his claim that the score is “Steve 1, Bluegrass 0,” Martin has been playing for decades, ever since The Smothers Brothers show. And his vocals have been in shape ever since a cherished movie moment, him ukeing and singing a 1926 Billy Rose/Lee David tune “Tonight You Belong to Me” in The Jerk. He’s taking advantage of residual years and residual checks to return to a first love, music, as a platform for weisenheimery and jackassery. He’s unlikely to get out of his depth with the seriously good Steep Canyon Rangers backing him. (RVB)

>@>8EK<J KFLI HP Pavilion, San Jose Sun – 7pm; $57.50 and up Outside of the Latin music world, some people don’t realize how big Marc Anthony really is. In fact, the guy is in the Guinness Book of World Records for most salsa

albums sold sold. He had been recording Spanish-language albums for years before releasing his first, self-titled crossover hit. Since then, he’s gone back and forth between English pop and Spanish salsa. But he also has a knack for finding a sweet spot in the middle—his most popular songs like “I Need to Know” and “I’ve Got You” tend to be released and chart in both languages. For this Gigantes Tour, he’s teamed up with fellow Latin megastars Marco Antonio Solis and Chayanne. (SP)

:I8J?=8JK<I X Bar, Cupertino Tue – 8pm; free The king of the NorCal chiptune

scene plays a free show in Cupertino this week, which also features fellow chip artists from Santa Cruz (the Slime Girls), Milwaukee (Awkward Terrible) and New York (Minusbaby). The reason that Crashfaster (a.k.a. Morgan Tucker) has stayed at the center of this 8-bit, Game Boy-obsessed electronic genre was obvious at the recent California Extreme Expo in Santa Clara, and at Rockage in February—the guy doesn’t just come in, play his set and leave.

He was up in front in the crowd, supporting and comparing notes with his fellow artists the whole time. His own sound—NES drenched in dance beats and epic synth—has evolved as he’s incorporated a live band, and in both his music and his talent for showcasing others, he continues to prove the chip sound is more than just a novelty.

Capital’s Punishment DAVID CRONENBERG’S talky but brilliant adaptation of Don DeLillo’s novel Cosmopolis feels like the future, the way The Dark Knight Rises was supposed to feel. The first shot is of the rictus of a huge limo’s grille. Cronenberg’s camera sidles past it and coasts along the vehicle’s shiny, mile-long side. Inside, a bubble of dead sound envelops the unimaginably wealthy hypochondriac Eric Packer (Robert Pattinson) of Packer Capital.

Pattinson, poreless tween heartthrob, has been seasoned a little. He now has a retrofuturist look, like those hair-oiled replicants on the cover of a Kraftwerk album.

Eric spends most of a long day in the limo driving at parade-float slowness through the impassable streets of New York. Traffic has come to a halt. The anarchists are in town, brandishing their totemic dead rats.

The president is visiting, too. Whether the crowd is there to admire him or shoot him is, at this point, immaterial.

The dead sound inside Packer’s limo is explained—he had the vehicle “Prousted” (lined with cork) to keep out the street noise. Eric picks up his tricks and his employees as he rides; the difference between them is only semantic.

Sometimes along for the ride: an art dealer (Juliette Binoche), with an American rasp in her Frenchless accent; Samantha

Morton as a more astute oracle than the one she played in Minority Report; Sarah Gadon doing an expert emulation of a Hitchcock blonde. Gadon plays Eric’s wife in an unconsummated and perhaps unconsummatable :fjdfgfc`j marriage. In between pickups, Eric learns the R; 108 min. bad news. He’s no longer Opens Friday, teetering on the top of a Camera 7, wave of money. He’s about Campbell to fall with the wave as it curls and crashes.

Cronenberg’s gift, as always, includes a subtle and all-pervasive atmosphere of distortion and an oncologist’s sense of humor. The director’s attitude toward the future is the same attitude a doctor in Cosmopolis has regarding a possibly precancerous mole on Eric’s ribcage: “Let it express itself.”

The downside is that the theatrical element Cronenberg lent A Dangerous Method returns. Cosmopolis devolves into a play in the last 20 minutes, when Paul Giamatti plays Benno, a furious victim of Eric’s policies. The speeches sound too much like speeches. However, they’re urgent, intelligent speeches about the almost living malice of hypercapital. Cosmopolis is something like the anti-matter version of Atlas Shrugged.—Richard von Busack

(R; 96 min.) More effective and solidly farcical than director Julie Delpy’s 2 Days in Paris. The quickness of its bilingual, bicultural reversals sharpen the material— and a movie about New York should be faster than ones about Paris.

Delpy plays the moody but amusing Marion, an artist with a live-in: Mingus (Chris Rock, unusually cast as a straight man to the humor).

Their hut-size Village apartment is already well filled with themselves and a pair of kids; then three visiting foreigners arrive: Marion’s half-clad and prowling sister Rose (Alexia Landeau), her Parisian doofus of a pothead boyfriend Manu (Alex Nahon) and, largest and strangest, Marion’s widowed father, Jeannot (Albert Delpy). Albert stole his daughter’s last film and comes back for a new haul. He’s a joy assaying this proudly smelly old man. The film unspools with genial episodes. The last third wobbles, but over all, Delphy’s latest is nimble and sweet. (RvB) (Opens Fri at Camera 3.)

BELOVED (NR; 138 min.) Catherine Deneuve and her real-life daughter Chiara Mastroianni star in this romantic musical drama that spans over three decades, and follows a mother and daughter’s trials and tribulations as they fall in and out of love. (Opens Fri at Camera 3.)

COSMOPOLIS (R; 108 min.) See box at left.

HERMANO (NR; 97 min.) Director Marcel Rasquin’s feature film follows a pair of Venezuelan foster brothers who are also teammates on the field. Julio (Eliu Armas) sinks into the world of crime, while Daniel, known as “Gato” (Fernando Moreno), hopes to make it to the top of the game. Familiar material even by the standards of familiar material, but of interest to futbol fans—and the scary Caracas backdrops are authentic. (RvB) (Opens Fri at Eastridge 15.)

HIT & RUN (R; 100 min.) A former getaway driver (Dax Shepard) breaks out of the Witness Protection Program in order to help his girlfriend (Kristen Bell) get to Los Angeles, while fending off his former gang, his girlfriend’s ex and a U.S. marshal.

(Opens Wed.)

PREMIUM RUSH (PG-13; 91 min.) Finally, the definitive bike-messenger-action-movie.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt stars as a New York City bike messenger who picks up an envelope only to find a dirty cop (Michael Shannon) on his tail, desperate to get it back at any length. (Opens Fri.)

ROBOT AND FRANK (PG-13; 90 min.) Cold Spring, N.Y., in the near future: a forgetful, perhaps early-stage Alzheimer’s sufferer named Frank (Frank Langella) decides to return to his old career as a jewel thief with the help of a companion robot gifted to him by his son. It’s Bradburian in the way it juxtaposes robots and summer fireflies; heavy on character, light on plot, you feel like addressing it with diminutives, like a child or a grandmother.

Langella excels in the lead with some gruff, touching acting. Peter Sarsgaard (who, like Langella, usually excels in villain roles) does the voice of the gentle NGC-60L, who doesn’t have a nickname. (Bad enough, Frank says, “I’m talking to appliances.”) The agelessly beautiful Susan Sarandon plays a librarian watching over the end of books; there is, however, a note of hope, since some young people are interested in the decaying old artifacts. Stay for the end credits, where Francis and the Lights’ moog-ornamented retro-future music accompanies news-story evidence that this fantasy isn’t as fanciful as it seems. (RvB) (Opens Fri at Camera 7.)

Revivals THE BAND WAGON/ YOU WERE NEVER LOVELIER (1953/1942) Fred Astaire (playing Fred Astaire, pretty much) prepares to be put out to pasture. He leaves Hollywood and returns to 42nd Street, finding what once was a sea of black coats and white ties is now a riot of color: Times Square is in the process of becoming what it was going to be when Travis Bickle found it. Thanks to the help of a young actress (Nanette Fabray), this tuxedoed, genteel figure of the Art Deco 1930s finds harmony with the wide-screen brassiness of the 1950s. BILLED WITH You Were Never Lovelier. Astaire stars as a hired hand in a Latin American nightclub belonging to the father (Adolphe Menjou) of his intended (Rita Hayworth). (Plays Aug 2528 in Palo Alto at the Stanford Theatre.) (RvB)

33 The Goonies (1985) (Plays Aug 23 at sundown in Old Redwood Square.)

Singinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in the Rain (1952) (Plays Aug 23 at sundown in San Jose on Post Street between S. First and Market.)

MONTY PYTHON AND THE HOLY GRAIL (1975) The quote-along version. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fetchez le vache.â&#x20AC;? (Plays Aug 24-26 in San Jose at the Retro Dome.) (RvB)

NILES FILM MUSEUM Regularly scheduled programs of silent ďŹ lms. This week: Underworld (1927) Josef von Sternberg and Ben Hechtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gangster ďŹ lm taught the genre of ďŹ lm noir volumes. With shorts starring Koko the Klown and Charlie Chase. Frederick Hodges at the piano. (Plays Aug 25 in Fremont at the Edison Theatre.) (RvB)

WEâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;RE NO ANGELS/ THE MARRYING KIND (1955/1952) Two with the stocky former sheriff of the Sacramento River town of Crockett, Aldo Ray. Ray, Humphrey Bogart and Peter Ustinov are escaped prisoners from Devilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Island who ďŹ nd refuge in a colonistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s store. BILLED WITH The Marrying Kind. A marriage seen backward, from its ďŹ nale at a divorce court as a judge (Madge Kennedy) listens to both sides of the story from the husband (Ray) and wife (Judy Holliday). (Plays Aug 22-24 in Palo Alto at the Stanford Theatre.) (RvB)

Reviews THE BOURNE LEGACY (PG-13; 135 min.) The franchise continues, but with Jeremy Renner in place of Matt Damon. Also stars Rachel Weisz and Edward Norton.

CELESTE AND JESSE FOREVER Rashida Jones of TVâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Parks and Recreation stars in and co-wrote Celeste and Jesse Forever. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a strange kind of romcom: the female side of the audience gets it in the neck. It takes a while to realize that Jonesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Celeste is meant to be

a rather awful person. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the superior type who likes to ďŹ&#x201A;aunt her education. Celeste is a trend-spotter for a marketing company, but she semiconceals her failed social life by hanging on to her not-yet divorced husband Jesse (Andy Samberg). Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an overgrown boy who still lives on her property, in the art studio out back. The ďŹ lm aims to be comic, but the script isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t very funny, despite all the put-downs. It takes the Albert Brooks approach of a romance of difďŹ cult, self-absorbed neurotic people. But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not self-aware despite its self-consciousness. (RvB)

metroactive FILM INTOUCHABLES (R; 112 min.) Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a seriously winning ďŹ lm, Olivier Nakache and Eric Toledanoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s The Intouchablesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;an example of how ďŹ rst-rate comedic acting can sell material that might not have ďŹ&#x201A;own otherwise. A larger than life, exuberantly handsome performer named Omar Sy dominates this buddy ďŹ lm as Driss. He is the

33

caretaker of an aristocratic French paralytic who can only move his head. Philippe, the malade (Francoise Cluzet), likes Drissâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; style. When a snobbish relative complains that people from the slums are without pity, Philippe agrees thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exactly what heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s looking for: someone who wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t treat him with pity. This comedy stakes its ground as opposing

middle-class timidity. The problem of being middle class is feeling that two other classes are condemning you simultaneously. The Intouchables suggests that the unhesitating grab for brio is the common privilege of the rich and the poor. That idea may be ridiculous, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s presented with ďŹ&#x201A;avor and humor here. (RvB)

MOONRISE KINGDOM (PG-13; 94 min.) In September 1965, gifted 12-year-olds Suzy (Kara Hayward) and Sam (Jared Gilman) head off to the wilderness of the ďŹ ctional New England island of New Penzance. They are sought by a sad constable (Bruce Willis) and an intrepid â&#x20AC;&#x153;Khaki Scoutsâ&#x20AC;? leader (Edward Norton). Gilman and Hayward demonstrate ďŹ&#x201A;awless precociousness, but the conceit is uneven. Sometimes the ďŹ lm is like Our Gang, as in a Boy Scout camp of kids acting like adults. Sometimes, it is as ooky as Bugsy Malone. Director Wes Andersonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s toy showboat is keeled with adult regret, particularly the drinkerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sorrows embodied

by Bill Murray as Suzyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dad. The coolness and preciousness keep a glass barrier up, as thick as a store window. (RvB)

SPARKLE (PG-13; 116 min.) A drama about a girl-group trio of three sisters fending off show-business-movie clichĂŠs. Stars Jordin Sparks, Carmen Ejogo and Whitney Houston.

F

OR FIVE YEARS running now, Rock the Bells has been the South Bay’s biggest rap show. It’s also the strangest megatour of the 21st century; since its debut in 2004, Rock the Bells has reinvented itself almost every year, and this one is no exception. With the return of headliner Nas (making his sixth RTB appearance), Common, Curren$y, Immortal Technique, Murs and other festival favorites, there’s a string of continuity, but the addition of acts like J. Cole and 2Chainz and a whole new setup for the tour has

led to some controversy, or just plain confusion. Here are answers to some key questions about the everevolving hip-hop festival as it returns to Shoreline this weekend.

Is Rock the Bells getting bigger or smaller?

Both, sort of. Rock the Bells has a convoluted history of shapeshifting: after starting out as two SoCal festival dates (summer and fall) in 2004, it went to a single day in 2005, then blew up into a hybrid festival and multicity club tour in 2006.

The next year had three festivals, 15 single-stage shows and five twostage shows across the country. In 2008, organizers took Rock the Bells international in what was probably its biggest year with 16 festival dates.

The next year, it contracted a little, and 2010 saw only four dates.

Last year had three, and this year also boasts three shows, but all three are two-day festivals. So a much smaller number of cities will be seeing Rock the Bells than in its heyday, but those select cities will have their bells rocked for twice as long. So it all depends on if you’re lucky enough to be near one or not, which brings us to ...

Why Mountain View?

The festival started in San Bernardino, so it’s no surprise that Rock the Bells launched there this year. A second date, in New Jersey, was clearly meant to shore up that East Coast presence the festival established five years ago with its much-hyped storming of New York City (the reunion of Rage Against the Machine as headliners didn’t hurt). Mountain View’s Shoreline may seem like a strange third choice for a festival that established itself in Chicago, Detroit and Boston. But in fact NorCal has been a huge part of the festival’s success since 2006—first in Concord, then San Francisco and, since 2008, at Shoreline.

Flow Chart

the festival this year, indicated the tour will have a home in this area in the future, as well. “The Bay Area music scene has always had a thriving and diverse hip-hop community.

Be it music from the Team to Souls of Mischief or Del the Funky Homosapien to 2 Pac and Keak Da Sneak, various subgenres of hip-hop are represented well in this market,” they wrote in response to my inquiry.

“This is evident in the success that Rock the Bells has had in the past and what we see doing in the future now that we are holding this event as a two-day festival.”

Why no E-40 or Wiz Khalifa?

More than most festivals, the Rock the Bells lineups can vary greatly from show to show. The biggest headscratcher this year is why some Bay Area homegrown favorites—E-40, Too Short and Hieroglyphics—are playing the San Bernardino show but not here. It’s also odd to see an act as big (and as popular here) as Wiz Khalifa solely on the SoCal lineup.

But organizers told me all of this is based solely on the artists’ availability (for instance, E-40 is scheduled to play a show in Humboldt County on Saturday), and they juggle as much as they can in an attempt to create what they consider an equally strong lineup at all three festival stops.

Is Rock the Bells selling out?

The inclusion of acts like J. Cole and Mac Miller at the top of this year’s bill raised some eyebrows, as Rock the Bells is known as a huge supporter of underground and indie hip-hop, steering clear of pop trends and showcasing artists who’ve proven they have something to say.

Organizers say that hasn’t changed, but that the two-day format has allowed them to expand their scope: “Guerilla Union has worked tirelessly with Live Nation to make the event appeal not only to its core base within the underground and classic hip-hop community but also by integrating commercially successful artists like J. Cole and 2 Chainz to expose a new audience to the Rock the Bells experience.”

Therefore, this weekend, they’ll perform for the first time in the South Bay with a totally different name. Their first official local show as Color will be Saturday, Aug. 25, at San Pedro Square Market, as part of the Daydream Color Nation series. They didn’t take the decision to change their name lightly, and it wasn’t just based solely on how much Aug. 25; 7pm; free the style of their songs has changed since their 2011 noisepop EP, Real Fun. Their entire musical aesthetic has changed.

San Pedro “We’re trying to find new sounds that aren’t just a drum kit, Square Market bass and guitar, something evolved past your standard rock quartet,” says drummer Anders Ericsson.

They’ve layered some parts to the point of blurring individual instruments into a wall of sound. Some beats have been replaced with drum machines. Some integral guitars parts have been removed completely in favor of synthesizers.

“We’re putting a lot of emphasis on the environment of the song. Tinkering with the production has given us a chance to go back in and overdub things we never thought of before,” says lead singer and guitarist Thomas Burns.

The recording of this still incomplete full-length has been an entirely different experience than that of Real Fun, which was recorded in a studio over the course of a couple days. The full-length has been recorded all on their own, in their practice space, using every room and even the parking lot to get different shades of reverb and echo. After a certain point, it dawned on them how much different this floating, textured post-rock project was from the noisepop sounds they started with. Most of their songs barely resembled a standard rock sound, but were instead built around loops, weird percussion and a delicate blend of guitars, keyboards and electronics. “We’re getting songs of a very different character.

We figured, we needed a new name to represent that change and complexity,” Ericsson explains.

As different as the music seems from the Bell Thieves days, there is a similarity in the root songwriting. While other obscure post-rock bands—like Mogwai and God Speed! You Black Emperor—rely almost completely on mood and dynamic, Color still have a strong footing in Beatles-derived classic indie-rock pop hooks.

“Now we’re going for a little more dynamics. I think we are all emoting moment to moment with much more nuance than before,” Ericsson says.—Aaron Carnes
