schools, where officers provide particular services for a specific employer (“Street Rep,” SVNEWS, June 20).

The streets of downtown San Jose belong to the general public and, as such, their protection is the responsibility of the San Jose Police Department—not the local business community. This responsibility is fundamental to modern policing, one that should not be thoughtlessly abrogated.

Transit Woes Americans don’t like to share. My car, my health insurance, my food. Many of us act as though our neighbors are potential sex offenders until proven innocent.

This manifests itself most especially in our public transportation system.

The United States in general spends an appallingly small amount of our GDP on transportation infrastructure.

The price of a one-way trip on your bus system today costs slightly more than the gas it would take to power your average sedan the same distance, in twice the time, and likely includes you walking more than 30 minutes since the coverage is so stunted. This

ticket comes with the added promise of sharing a wheeled waiting room with a bunch of quiet, sullen strangers, who you must remember are potential criminals, drunks or sex offenders, because otherwise they would have cars and wouldn’t be there.

Unless you just don’t have a car and must submit yourself to the mercy of the transit gods, it is up to people to chose to share to keep this system alive.

And when it’s more time-effective, costeffective and germ-effective to take your own ride, why would you ever want to?

The truth is, we just don’t like sharing with strangers.

If the mark of a developed, advanced, stable culture is how people get around from place to place, then the question I’m asking myself lately is how this place got so great. Or if I just need to rethink my pride.

THE FLY

SVNEWS

Animal House The Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors recently passed its $4 billion annual budget, and in one of her last meaningful acts, Supervisor LIZ KNISS, who will be termed out at the end of the year, recommended that the county give $47,000 to Palo Alto Animal Services. This wouldn’t be that big of a deal—the amount accounts for .001 percent of the budget—except for the fact that the animal shelter is in no way related to county business. Oh, and there’s one other important detail: Kniss is running for a seat on the Palo Alto City Council this fall. The animal shelter is actually under the authority of the city of Palo Alto, which lost more than a half-million in funding for animal services when the Mountain View shelter decided to find a new partner in Silicon Valley Animal Control Authority. Surprisingly, Supervisor MIKE WASSERMAN seconded Kniss’ motion for one-time funds with breathtaking Don’t quickness, proving forget that Republicans hate to tip! spending money on a lot of things but not FLY@ on puppies and kittens.

METRONEWS. COM Meanwile, Supervisors KEN YEAGER and DAVE CORTESE objected to the funds, because the city of Palo Alto chose to cut Animal Services staff rather than allocate money to make up the shortfall. But board President GEORGE SHIRIKAWA—who recently took some heat for having his own personal bodyguard at a taxpayer expense of almost $90K—gave in as sort of a parting gift to Kniss, who refused to return Fly’s calls. “After three terms of a supervisor, I’m not going to be a ‘no’ vote on your last budget item,” Shirikawa said, passing the motion 3-2. Kniss thanked him by saying, “We’ll take what we can get, George. I’ll mention your name in Palo Alto.”

awareness and funds for myeloma research by hosting an annual music festival in New York City.

The first event in 2006 was a success, raising $10,000 dollars, and today the organization has donated more than $60,000 to the International Myeloma Foundation.

“I didn’t know how to make something from nothing,” Rubin admits when discussing his “netroots” campaign. But the success of Music against Myeloma produced a chain reaction of entrepreneurial insights for Rubin, and in bits and pieces he put together a new alternative for financing any project, from mom and pop grocery stores to the next Google or Facebook.

In 2008, he founded San Franciscobased IndieGoGo, a crowdfunding website that allows users to submit proposals—oftentimes film and art

projects—and solicit donations to aid their completion. Examples range from funding the health-care documentary Escape Fire, which premiered at this year’s Sundance Film Festival, to giving a vacation to Karen Klein, a 68-year-old school bus monitor who was harangued by children in a 10-minute viral video.

The goal was to send Klein on a nice vacation for $5,000, but outrage over the rotten kids she’s forced to deal with has led to more than $656,000 being raised.

“Sometimes it really does take a village,” Rubin says.

The crowdfunding business model is technically an old idea. The Statue of Liberty lacked funds for a platform to stand upon until Joseph Pulitzer’s New York World newspaper persuaded the public to contribute the necessary funds—more than 120,000 people donated an average of 0.83 cents. More recently, the practice of crowdsourcing—the simple idea that many people can overtake the work of traditional professionals—has given rise to user-generated media like YouTube and Wikipedia.

Angels & Demons This year, the direction of crowdfunding took a turn toward the free market, as the federal JOBS Act passed through the U.S. House and Senate with a crowdfunding provision and was signed into law in April by President Obama.

The language, which will have to be converted into a set of investor rules by the SEC, currently allows equity investments in projects through

crowdfunding. The legislation requires crowdfunding websites like IndieGoGo to register with the SEC and restricts an individual’s investment in crowdfunded companies based on net worth or income. For example, an investor making less than $100,000 annually can kick in no more than $2,000 to a crowdfunded company.

But the legislation doubles the number of shareholders a private company can have before it’s considered public, from 500 to 1,000.

Crowdfunded companies can raise up to $1 million annually under the provision, which could result in the augmentation or even replacement of traditional “professional” investment routes like VC, just as Wikipedia did with Encyclopedia Britannica.

The crowdfunding provision has generated a maelstrom of debate, and the head of the SEC, Mary Shapiro, openly voiced skepticism of the provision, saying it would weaken investor protections and be a “step backwards.”

The SEC currently has 270 days to make necessary regulatory modifications to implement the crowdfunding provision, but Shapiro went on record saying 18 months was more appropriate for “regulations of this magnitude.”

Echoing Shapiro’s doubts, a smattering of economic experts suggest that, despite the JOBS bill’s attempt to stimulate job growth by lowering hurdles to entrepreneurial investment, the “crowd investing” provision will create more problems than it solves. This has led some Silicon Valley attorneys to start giving their startup clients stern warnings about intellectual property poachers.

“If you have a system set up to sell securities to unaccredited investors, in relatively small amounts, to fund risky new ventures, that’s a gigantic flashing sign to attract the worst scumbags on Earth,” says Antone Johnson of Bottom Line Law Group, which works with early stage mobile and web startups in Silicon Valley.

But as the economy remains somewhat stagnant, the future seems ripe for open funding models that sidestep the traditional system.

“We’re trying to democratize the funding process,” Rubin says, “where anybody in the world is able to raise money for absolutely any idea without judgment. Crowdfunding will become very much the norm.”

9 JUNE 27-JULY 3, 2012 | metrosiliconvalley.com | sanjose.com | metroactive.com

Crowdfunding’s attempt to capitalize on this trend has led to disagreements if this is a positive step for entrepreneurs and the economy at large.

Last week, the battle lines in the debate were drawn at an event titled “Crowdfunding: Disrupting Traditional Funding Models,” which was hosted by the MIT Stanford Venture Labs (VLABs). Among the panelists were Rubin; Carl Esposti, founder of Crowdsourcing.org; Ryan Caldbeck, CEO of crowdfunding site CircleUp; and traditional investment folks like Daniel Zimmermann, partner at WilmerHale, and founder and board member of Health Tech & Sand Hill Angels Don Ross.

As Ross sees it, crowdfunding projects could have “some coexistence” with traditional funding vehicles, but in the end it’s “not a very good overlap.” He expects a nightmare getting traditional investors like VC or Angels to work on capitalization tables with scores of, basically, anonymous Internet investors.

Further, the well-known “due diligence” requirements for getting startup dollars, where investors try to determine the market value of the project and the execution abilities of the core team, would likely be compromised by the open crowdfunding model, Ross argues.

But “the average small business in America is actually started on less than ten thousand dollars,” Rubin counters. He adds that the current model for getting this modest amount is “fundamentally broken.”

“Instead of a world of transactions it’s a world of relationships. People want to be part of what they’re actually buying or participating in.

“It’s for people to decide; not one person in a suit, typically using a risk model which is 20 years old that has no idea how the market is evolving.”

Of course, Big Brother could end up making the decision for everyone.

What’s What’ ’s happening in n Santa Santa Cruz C County o y this w ount week eek k THURSDAY 6/28

SATURDAY 6/30

SATURDAY 6/30

CASUAL

JONI SHOW

Hop ’N’ Barley Festival

In a better world, Casual’s elastic flow and nimble wordplay would earn him platinum plaques, but in lieu of that, he’ll take the adoration of the underground set. Casual has stayed restless and remained hard at work, and still battles to keep in excellent verbal shape, continuing to work the underground as one of the Hieroglyphics crew’s most gifted MCs. Catalyst; $10 adv/$15 door; 9pm.

Hot on the heels of the first Joni Show, which sold out weeks in advance and received rave reviews from audience members and performers alike, the Joni Show is back, paying tribute to the legendary Joni Mitchell. Featuring a stellar cast of local musicians including Mary McCaslin, Jayme Kelly Curtis, Barry and Shelley Phillips, Neal Hellman, Ginny Mitchell, Amy Obenski and more, the show is a career-spanning celebration of an inimitable artist who changed the face of popular music with her inspired compositions, innovative techniques and insightful lyrics.

Kuumbwa; $20 adv/$25; 8pm.

Touted by the festival’s organizers as “the one and only beer and barbeque festival to attend this summer,” the Hop N’ Barley Festival is serving not only local sausages, but local sausages made with beer from local breweries. Enjoy food from 50 breweries, including a handful of local Santa Cruz brewers, and delicious meat from 10 barbequers. Held at Skypark, 361 Kings Village Rd, Scotts Valley, gates open at noon on Saturday, June 30 and the event rolls ‘till 5pm with music and tasting. Unlimited tasting. Tickets are $38 to taste everything, $30 for just beer, or $8 for just barbeque.

FRIDAY 6/29

BLUE ÖYSTER CULT More cowbell! OK, now that we got that out of the way, we’d like to remind everyone that before Will Ferrell made a beer-bellied mockery of the band, Blue Öyster Cult was one of the most fanatically loved hard rock acts in America— and frankly, still is. Between tracks like “Burnin’ for You,” “Astronomy,” “Godzilla” and “Cities on Flame with Rock and Roll,” BOC has been a staple of classic rock radio for more than 40 years. With this kind of musical résumé, folks might expect to pays 50 or 60 bucks to see a live rendition of “(Don’t Fear) the Reaper,” but at the Beach Boardwalk, Friday night shows are always on the house. Beach Boardwalk; free; 6:30pm and 8:30pm.

SPIDER SALOFF

EVERCLEAR

Los Gatos Town Plaza Wed – 6:30pm, free

Mountain Winery; Saratoga Thursday – 6:30pm; $49.50$89.50

Far too little heard on the West Coast, Chicago jazz singer Spider Saloff is a connoisseur of the American Songbook, an original stylist who specializes in the witty repartee of Cole Porter and the exquisite music of Billy Strayhorn.

A dynamic performer who arrives in the Bay Area after premiering her one-woman musical The Roar of the Butterfly, Saloff performs as part of Los Gatos’s Jazz on the Plazz concert series with a band led by pianist Ken Muir, featuring the prodigious trumpeter Erik Jekabson. (AG)

There was a time back in the ’90s when bands could crank out guitar-driven alternative pop songs and dominate the airwaves.

The Summerland 2012 tour is plucking five of those bands right out of that decade and delivering them to the Mountain Winery. The bands they chose are Everclear, Sugar Ray, the Gin Blossoms, Lit and Marcy Playground. Headliners Everclear produced an endless stream of polished college-rock songs, including “Santa Monica,” “Everything to Everyone,” “Father of Mine” and “I Will Buy You a New

Life.” You may remember main support Sugar Ray as the SoCal pop-rock outfit Mark McGrath fronted before landing the sweet gig as co-host for Extra. (AC)

FOSSIL TREE San Jose Public Library, Santa Teresa Branch Fri – 4pm; free The last five years have seen an explosion of indie-rock bands influenced by the Smiths, bringing some straight-up, stay-inschool high-mindedness to the alternapop scene. Some specialize in Morrissey’s blend of sass and sadness. Others are more serious, like locals Fossil Tree. Though fairly

new, they’re honing that mystical Morrissey/Marr alchemy of complex, catchy guitar-rock and literate lyrics.

I especially like the unexpected, druggy “ba-ba-ba-ba” breakdown in their otherwise driving “Greats and Grands.” Over the Bridge and Skyway View also perform. (SP)

Studio 8, San Jose Thu – 10pm; ladies free before 11pm on guest list, guys $5 before 11pm on guest list According to the imagery on the flyer, Studio 8’s Midnight Flight must be something like Soul Plane—that crazy, party-airplane

comedy starring Snoop Dogg, Kevin Hart and Mo’Nique. There is, after all, a plane in the background and a sexy stewardess in the foreground. Plus they got a trio of DJs scheduled to play—B3, Dre Iromo—all of whom specialize in spinning booty-shaking hip-hop, house and dubstep. Something tells me the party at Studio 8 won’t be nearly as hilarious as Soul Plane, but the music and the dancing should be just as wild. (AC)

<M<I:C<8I Zflc[ c`m\ Y\ its actually the handle of San Jose’s premier horror-inspired artist. There’s a YouTube video that tours this guy’s house, and for horror geeks, it’s no less than jaw-dropping. Not only do Jason, Leatherface and more play a central part in his sometimes downright disturbing paintings, but his house is a shrine to the horror genre, from the Last House on the Left and Combat Shock posters to the life-size zombie mannequins. He’s one of the artists featured at On the Corner’s Summer Bummer shindig, along with Jose Angeles, Mark Martinez, Sonja Caldwell, Nate Byrne, Anthony Barbaria and more. Funky music will be provided by Taran and Overflo, and what would a summer party be without hot dogs and sodees? There will be also be no tax on all the vinyl during the event. (SP)

SHITKICKERS Blank Club; San Jose Friday – 9pm; $8 What is the best kind of music to drink to? Country? Rockabilly?

Punk Rock? The Shitkickers like to drink so much, they figured why not play all of said drinking musical genres? (They have yet to tackle Celtic music.) Whatever the Shitkickers are playing, they make sure it’s loud, powerful and fueled by drunken mojo. They don’t stick to standard rock instruments. They will bust out a fiddle or a banjo when the mood strikes, so expect a bit of a hootenanny at their shows—a drunken hootenanny.

The band also has a song that shows their tender side; it’s a sad country tune about the Cactus Club—that local club all the members used to get shitfaced at. (AC)

But the retro girls of Barbary Coast, collectively one of the Bay Area’s best burlesque troupes, are going all in on the theme with this ’80s Barbary Coast Cabaret. DJ Rockin’ Raul Castro will start with the group’s traditional swing lessons, but for this show he’ll throw in some ’80s moves. The show will feature not only the dancers but also Smiths tribute group This Charming Band.

The recent focus on izakaya, ramen and yakitori has promoted Japanese food beyond sushi. Nami Nami has quietly lead the charge with a unique menu that includes dishes from Kyoto served in an

elegant and calm atmosphere.

The restaurant is dimly but tastefully lit, and the conversation ebbs and flows in a pleasant murmur. Prices are high, but reasonable, given the quality of the food and the elegance of the restaurant.

Chinmi is translated loosely as gourmet, but means intense, peculiar tastes. Most of the dishes are viscera, like shuto ($6)—a small purée of a bonito stomach lining— and shiokara ($6)—squid stuffed with part of the stomach of the squid itself. Dishes are salted with specific salts, in order to intensify the taste.

This approach is palatable only by serving very small portions, and drinking heavily. Sake, with its subtle flowery sweetness, can become cloying after a few hours

of prolonged indulgence. Some chinmi portions fit at the end of a chopstick. These dishes should interpose between different sakes, and some have specific sake pairings.

Konowata ($9), salted sea cucumber viscera, is best eaten with a specific sake.

Japanese relish off hand, understated brilliance, such as Jiro, Tokyos’s Michelin three-star-rated minuscule sushi bar; or exquisite chicken skewers found only in a 15-seat smoky den under a railway station.

Imagine sitting in a bar after a long day, with a few co-workers, having a few rounds of sake. Then you call for the local speciality, something for a quick taste, and the balance of salt and slime cuts through the sake in a single explosive moment. That moment, a moment of insight and clarity, should be unexpected and hard to describe.

Kani miso ($9) is a combination of miso paste and the gray matter of crab. The taste has few comparisons.

The base taste is umami, with a soft dirty bite and a feeling of the

K_\ YXcXeZ\ f] jXck Xe[ jc`d\ Zlkj k_ifl^_ k_\ jXb\ `e X j`e^c\ \ogcfj`m\ dfd\ek% K_Xk dfd\ek# X dfd\ek f] `ej`^_k Xe[ ZcXi`kp# j_flc[ Y\ le\og\Zk\[ Xe[ _Xi[ kf [\jZi`Y\% In several days of aging with the egg yolk, the tastes come together as greater than their parts. The white miso draws out the sweetness of yolk, the salt intensifies and the elastic texture keeps the tongue busy. Sous vide yolk has gained in popularity such as Baume’s 62degree egg, and Manresa’s popular Arpège egg—and this dish is a worthy addition.

With a selection of eight classic chinmi, whiling away an evening Japanese-style with friends and a few bottles of sake becomes a pleasant attraction. The staff at Nami Nami provides a very Japanese experience in the heart of Silicon Valley.

color green. In keeping with the idea of an unusual taste, it’s not quite like anything else. Karasumi ($10), a dried mullet roe, has a nutty and salty fish taste, as if oysters had been raised in a vat of Gouda cheese.

Chef Kaori Yamaguchi’s egg miso ($6) should not be missed. Organic chicken yolk is marinated with two kinds of miso. She uses white miso for sweetness and red miso for the strong salt taste.

JOE CIRONE/HAY MARKET- The first time I went to Hay Market, I knew Cirone was on to something different. Cirone is from San Jose but had traveled widely and so he knew what the city had and what it didn’t. He has created an exciting, worldly and approachable menu that is just what the city needed. When are you going to open a second place?

JOSIAH SLONE/SENT SOVI- Slone mines the tradition of French food, but imbues it with a Northern California sensibility that is all his: clever, but approachable, distinct and delicious. The cozy, tucked-away location of the restaurant adds to the feeling that Slone is cooking just for you.

MASAHIKO TAKEI/GOCHI- Japanese food is one of the strengths of Silicon Valley’s dining scene, and one of my favorite restaurant remains Gochi, because it embodies what I love about izakayas, small salty, fatty bites with plenty of top-shelf sake and soju. But Masahiko Takei’s “Japanese fusion tapas,” as he calls his food, stands out from the rest of the valley’s Japanese for its genrebending creativity.

JESSE ZIFF COOL/FLEA STREET BISTRO - The East Bay has Alice Waters, and here in Silicon Valley’s we’ve got Jesse Ziff Cool. Cool has been celebrating seasonal, farm-to-table cooking before it was, well, cool. At nearly 30 years, Flea Street still tastes fresh and exciting, and that’s because Cool’s vision and sensibilities make it so.

BRUNO CHEMEL/BAUME- Last year Chemel picked up his second Michelin star, a big deal for a chef born and raised in France. Baume is a singular restaurant in the Bay Area. The interior is spare and modern, yet warm and inviting.

The setting is the perfect environment to appreciate Chemel’s cerebral, avant-garde cooking. You won’t find anything like it anywhere else.

Chef and partner Jeffrey Stout is aiming high. “I envision this being the premier fine dining seafood restaurant in the Bay Area,” Stout says.

“Essentially, we want to do what we did with steak but with different protein.”

Alexander’s already features a number of creative seafood dishes and the new venue should give Stout an opportunity to further develop his repertoire. He points to top-of-the line restaurants like Providence in Los Angeles and Le Bernardin in New York City as his inspiration.

“I think that this is something which has been missing from the Bay Area food scene since the demise of Aqua with its elegant presentations and luxury products.”—Stett Holbrook

:\eklip f] Gif^i\jj IN 1919, Santa Clara University’s yearbook The Redwood, stated, “The Engineers are planning, and when Engineers plan: results follow!”

Indeed, from manning the first heavier-than-air flying machine to winning awards for their energy-efficient houses, Santa Clara University’s engineers have contributing to technological advancement for a century.

“Engineering Secrets Revealed: A Centennial Exhibit” explores the School of Engineering’s 100 years of excellence with displays of engineering mementos and artifacts.

Santa Clara University was founded in 1851 Engineering but it was not until 1912 that the College of Secrets Engineering was established. In the early 20th Revealed!: A century, college president James P. Morrissey Centennial introduced law and engineering to SCU’s curriculum. He hoped to shape the school into Exhibit an institution that emphasized both ethical behavior and enlightening academic study.

Runs through Dec. 15 George L. Sullivan was the first dean of the new Third Floor Gallery, school and guided the fledgling establishment Santa Clara University for 43 years. In 1936, the program became the Library first accredited engineering school west of St. Louis. After World War II, demand for engineers increased, and soon the school was enrolling hardened soldiers alongside young freshmen. In 1959, the College of Engineering became the School of Engineering.

The program places a specific emphasis on educating for entrepreneurship and promoting a synthesis of ethical ideals and engineering education.

SCU’s engineers have also joined the crusade for a more sustainable world and Environmental Engineering has become one of the premier sections of the school. SCU placed third in both the 2007 and 2009 Solar Decathlons, a competition to create the most energy-efficient home.

Visitors will find relics from each of the school’s many milestones. Display cabinets house memorabilia from the school’s first years, pictures of some of the crème de la crème of SCU’s engineers, and other artifacts like the GeneSat-1 satellite that NASA gave to SCU in 2007.

In the corner hangs a replica of The Pink Maiden, John J. Montgomery’s test model of a glider. Visitors will also get a chance to see some of the designs made by SCU seniors, including the Treadle Water Pump, a humanpowered pump that was created to help developing countries irrigate their crops.—Eliza Lamson

Olympic Pioneer DURING the Olympic Trials in San Jose this weekend, Willow Glen High School and Stanford University alum Josh Dixon must come in sixth to secure a spot on the U.S. National men’s gymnastics team. If chosen, he will become the first publicly out male gymnast to compete in the Olympics.

Dixon announced his sexuality in an interview with Outsports.com that was published this May, and he’s already gaining fans. Wrote one commenter: “I have a new hero.”

He will also be joining the very small percentage of Olympic athletes who are openly gay; of the 10,708 athletes at the Beijing Games in 2008, only 10 were publicly gay.

That’s a big deal, but Josh is cool about it. He’s not trying to be a political figure or a gay-rights poster child. He’s just being himself—and using his status as a high-profile athlete to show others just how normal it is to be gay. “Now that I’m in this position, I feel like I have a responsibility to put myself out there for people who have the same problems,” he says. “I can be a role model and let them know it’s OK, especially in the world of sports.”

Dixon’s public “outing” comes at a time when LGBTQ-rights groups are taking advantage of the political microscope focused on the Olympics to highlight the injustices faced by the LGBTQ community worldwide.

Activists have been pressuring the International Olympic Committee to ban the 84 countries that criminalize homosexuality. In addition, British human-rights lawyer Mark Stephens published an article in The Guardian late last month titled, “Let’s Make LGBT Rights the Centrepiece of London 2012,” urging gay Olympic athletes to come out of the closet as a gesture of pride.

Dixon doesn’t know Mark Stephens and admits he hasn’t been keeping up with the news. “Because of the scale of the Olympics, it’s hard to avoid it being political,” he says, although somehow, despite publicly coming out in this politicized atmosphere, he’s managed to do just that. Like any athlete with their eye on the prize, his focus is on his sport.

L%J% Fcpdg`Z Ki`Xcj# >pdeXjk`Zj June 27–July 1 HP Pavilion, San Jose

The acceptance he received from his friends and family when he came out to them a year and a half ago hasn’t been any cause for stress. They were “nonchalant,” he says, and totally supportive. He said his teammates assured him that he was still one of their leaders. “I think for me, after coming out in college, I became so much more carefree, and I excelled so much more in my sport,” he says. He views the process of publicly coming out as similar to an injury or other obstacle that can help athletes grow.

Now he’s hoping others facing the same problems can have just as positive of an experience. He decided to come out to the public after a friend and ex-teammate told Dixon he “could have a tremendous impact in breaking down barriers and making people feel more comfortable with who they are in sports.”—Alyssa Kies

Sister Act LYNN SHELTON’S Your Sister’s Sister is the best argument for Mark Duplass we’ve had so far. Duplass has been working hard in the indie vineyard.

Here he plays Jack, a bitter, unemployed Seattleite. At his brother’s memorial ceremony, he’s the only one willing to address the sibling’s bullying, manipulative qualities: “If we’re going to toast the man, let’s toast the man.”

The brother’s ex, Iris (Emily Blunt, swallowing and kind of choking on her British accent) offers Jack her family’s vacation home in Puget Sound as a refuge. Unbeknownst, Iris’ big sister Hannah (Rosemarie DeWitt) is there already to recover from the breakup of her own long-term relationship with a woman. Jack and Hannah get into the tequila, and then into the sack. Matters are complicated by Iris’ hurt feelings, and Hannah’s hidden agenda.

Shelton (Humpday) goes for the realistically unkempt look in dress as well as bed: the wardrobe of hoods, flannels and thermals, compliments the wild night (Jack comes too soon and leans on Hannah’s hair). The wit is all in the come-on: “I would be super open to this,” is Jack’s passive way of trying to lure this lesbian into a man’s bed.

Seeing Hannah, it’s as if the call went out for a young Catherine Keener. They certainly found her. Rosemarie DeWitt has been around: she had the title role in Rachel Getting Married. She was also Midge in Mad Men: the woman who Pfli J`jk\iÊj J`jk\i catalyzed that Ozu-like passage where Don R; 90 min.

Draper was, without any Opens Fri. at warning, transfixed by a the Aquarius folk song about Babylon. and Camera 7 DeWitt has heavy lashes and bangs and a terrific hawk nose, and is my idea of what Lois Lane would look like. She’s a lowdown moqueuse: when Jack pays her body a heavy compliment, she picks her tooth with her fingernail to show how touched she is. Your Sister’s Sister is capped with a token, petty act of rage that’s meant to look existential but looks more like street vandalism. Still, Shelton gives her actors room to play, and that’s the best thing about her: Duplass looks sly and clever for once instead of stocky and half-asleep.

But the shaggy, unfocussed quality of Shelton’s drama leaves the story to go into only one direction: the realm of tooeasy reconciliation and affirmation.

—Richard von Busack

Raynes, now a San Jose State University student, had been going to Freq Out! since it started in Santa Cruz. But it was after it moved to downtown San Jose last year that it led her to Lopez, who would eventually become her artistic collaborator and boyfriend. “The first

time we ever talked was at a Freq Out, on Halloween,” says Raynes.

“I had just moved here from Florida, and started hanging out at live music events downtown,” says Lopez, who lives in Gilroy.

In a nice bit of circular karma, Raynes and Lopez will paint together at the next Freq Out!, on Friday at South First Billiards. This edition will feature seven live acts on the bill, with four visual artists doing live art to the music.

Most people aren’t used to seeing live art during a concert, let alone two people working on the same piece. But Lopez and Raynes began collaborating on their paintings after first experimenting with a long, rectangular canvas.

“I started at one end, and she started at one end, and then we just

flip-flopped,” Lopez remembers. “I went over what she was doing, and she went over what I was doing.”

“It almost inspires me more when we work together,” Raynes adds. “It’s more of a surprise.”

The canvas they’ll be working with on Friday will be the largest they’ve done yet. Both of them are hooked on the live art experience. “It draws out inspiration that you wouldn’t normally get,” says Raynes.

Lopez is now doing most of his art at live music events. “Everybody is really into it, because it’s immediate,” he says. “It’s like you’re a musician playing a song.”

In another bit of symmetry, the San Jose group Rebelskamp, which will be performing at this week’s Freq Out!, looks at its music like an artist painting a piece. “That’s such a match for our music,” says drummer Dan Gilardoni of the event’s live-art component. “We don’t know what we’re playing, but we’ll just start flowing with it.”

Rebelskamp started as the freestyle rap crew LSB, and didn’t compromise

their creative process one bit when they became a rock band. “We make up our music on the spot,” says Gilardoni. “We thrive on that unpredictability.”

However, Rebelskamp is far from a traditional jam band. Rather than noodling in the genre’s traditional style, they try to build structured 3–5 minute songs. And they sound totally different depending on where they’re playing—a loud street at SubZERO, a quiet coffeehouse at Caffé Frascati (where they play the first Saturday of the month) or their gigs at Myth.

All of this raw, freeform creativity is exactly what San Jose’s Kyle Patrick pictured when he started the Freq Out! events. He was inspired by the festivals he was going to, like Symbiosis and Emissions. “What I wanted to create was what I was seeing out in the middle of the woods,” says Patrick, “I wanted to bring that energy indoors.”

Patrick, who was classically trained, is in several bands and calls himself “an upright bass player at heart,” brings his own spontaneous creativity to Freq Out!, performing as UpSwell. Though his sets are laptop-based, he tries to get off what he calls “the MIDI clock” by incorporating live elements like looping and a fretless bass guitar.

“I found myself calling myself a DJ for lack of a better word,” he says.

Patrick says one of his main goals with the music at Freq Out!—which started as purely dubstep, glitch-hop and other electro but has broadened considerably—is to book artists that he believes people don’t know, but should. This edition will feature, besides Rebelskamp, electronic artist Bogl, as well as Likquid Project, Dirtybeats and Codeword. There will also be a secret guest headliner.

Many of the artists involved with Freq Out! praise its vibe of respect toward art and music. But Patrick believes it has gotten as successful as it has so far because it’s also a place for creative people to let loose, as well. “It’s an art thing,” he says, “but it’s a great party, too.”

Daydream Nation #3 SHUTEYE UNISON, ALUMNI of the legendary indie group The Rum Diary, take the stage at San Pedro Square Market for the third installment of Daydream Nation this Saturday. The Rum Diary’s balance between heart-on-the-sleeve emo-rock and tongue-in-cheek prog-rock set them apart in the crowded landscape of indie rock in the early 2000s. Shuteye Unison continue the Rum Diary’s penchant for redefining genres, but give it an even stranger spin.

Their debut record, Our Future Selves, is a hand-crafted collection of oddball, technically impressive and stylistically diverse tunes. They mix punk and dance grooves with indie-pop piano ballads, ’70s space-rock jams and of course atmospheric guitar rock. Every song seems to be referencing a different style of music, several in most cases. Their one commonality: they walk a weird line of sounding both intimate and larger than life, like an amphitheater rock band listened to on headphones.

San Pedro Square Market Saturday, June 30 7pm; free

Headlining the show are the relatively new local band Colorscout, who play fun jangle-pop. They have keyboards, an acoustic guitar, an electric bass and drums and a female singer. There are elements of folk and ’80s new wave, and Colorscout are already turning heads in the local scene.

Also on the bill are Cartoon Bar Fight and Curious Quail, two more folk/ ’80s-pop influenced local bands.

Anya and the Get Down ANYA AND THE GET DOWNâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ďŹ rst EP got the local scene buzzing, its Amy Winehouseâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;type confessional rock blending effortlessly with dubstep, reggae and hip-hopâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;not to mention the revelation that was Anyaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vocals. Their new, still nameless second EP, which will be released in conjunction with a headlining show at the Pagoda Saturday, should be no less impactful. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a little bit more soul on this one,â&#x20AC;? says Anya. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s coming from a deeper place.â&#x20AC;?

The new EP features three new songsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;â&#x20AC;&#x153;Maybe,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;L.A. Womanâ&#x20AC;? (not the Doors song), and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Gotta Be Got.â&#x20AC;? It also includes her ďŹ rst single, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Gone Baby Gone,â&#x20AC;? and a remix of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Câ&#x20AC;&#x2122;est La Vieâ&#x20AC;? from the ďŹ rst EP, done by the Bangerzâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cutso.

It worked outâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;obviously, because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cutso.â&#x20AC;?

9pm; $10-$20 The bandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been taking a break from playing live to work on the EP, and their ďŹ rst album, which is due sometime this summer. This will be Anyaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ďŹ rst show ever playing the piano with her band, even though she is classically trained and it is her primary instrument. There are plans to move the Fairmontâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grand piano in for the show.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll also be Anya and the Get Downâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ďŹ rst time headlining the Pagoda, though Anya considers the spot a good luck charm after her ďŹ rst show there, opening for Talib Kweliâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Idle Warship. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I actually had lost my voice that night,â&#x20AC;? she says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;but I magically got it back. It turned out to be one of the best shows weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever done.â&#x20AC;?

Iron Bartender A FEW YEARS AGO, you couldn’t have done an Iron Bartender competition in the South Bay. Or rather, you could have, but few would have cared. Slowly, though, the mixology madness that swept New York, L.A. and San Francisco has changed the mindset of bartenders here, too.

“People want to show their skills now,” says Fahrenheit’s Steven Renteria, organizer of the Iron Bartender contest, “rather than just say, ‘I pour vodka crans.’”

Fahrenheit Fahrenheit already has an Industry Monday event, so Iron Bartender was originally conceived as a way for local bartenders to entertain themselves.

“We just wanted to add a little friendly competition,” says Renteria.

Monday, July 2 9pm; free

Four bartenders will face off every first Monday of the month, beginning July 2. They’ll use a sponsored alcohol (the first one is Ketel vodka), and—in the grand tradition of Iron Chef—a secret ingredient. They’ll be asked to create three different cocktails—one on the rocks, one up/strained, and one of their own choosing.

The bartenders will be judged by a panel of three on originality, presentation and taste. There will be a weekly cash prize (“a couple hundred dollars,” says Renteria) and each week’s winner gets a spot in the finals Nov. 5.

“I know we have a lot of talented bartenders here,” says Renteria. “Some of these guys consider themselves real mixologists.”—Steve Palopoli

People magazine called him the “Father of the underground press,” which led to his demand for a paternity test.

There was a panel titled “E Cannabis Unum.” This event served as one more step toward the decriminalizing of marijuana being accepted by the mass media and mainstream culture as the logical and humane thing to do.

The panelists were Mark Haskell Smith, author of Heart of Dankness: Underground Botanists, Outlaw Farmers, and the Race for the Cannabis Cup; Heather Donahue, an actress who has written a memoir, Growgirl: How My Life After The Blair Witch Project Went to Pot; and me, the editor of a collection, Pot Stories for the Soul, which includes true tales by Ken Kesey, Hunter Thompson, Michelle Phillips, Wavy Gravy and Jack Herer among others, with an introduction by the prolific science-fiction author Harlan Ellison.

That collection was published by HIGH TIMES Books in 1999. It won the Firecracker Alternative Book

Award and later became a Quality Paperback Book Club selection. Now a new, expanded and updated edition will be published by Soft Skull Press in June. The attorneys for the Chicken Soup for the Soul series had originally sent a “cease and desist” warning. Although scientists and theologians alike agree that, while the soul cannot be located, apparently it can be copyrighted.

So the sequel, Acid Trips for the Soul, was retitled Acid Trips for the Mind, but the distributor insisted that it be changed to Psychedelic Trips for the Mind.

The second sequel, Magic Mushrooms for the Soul, was retitled Magic Mushrooms for the Body, but then I changed that to Magic Mushrooms and Other Highs: From Toad Slime to Ecstasy.

I sent a copy of Magic Mushrooms and Other Highs to my friend the jailed activist Todd McCormick, who wrote two articles for that book, but the warden rejected it “because on pages 259–261, it describes the process of squeezing toads to obtain illicit substances which could be detrimental to the security, good order and discipline of the institution.”

This was pure theater of cruelty.

Federal correctional facilities do not

have a toad problem, and outside accomplices have not been catapulting loads of toads over barbed wire fences to provide the fuel for a prison riot.

The panel I was on was moderated

by Dean Kuipers, an editor and writer at the Times, and the author of Burning Rainbow Farm. He called on me first. I told the audience that if they looked under their seats, they would find a little baggie. Several optimists actually looked. It was my Oprah moment.

“The priorities are insane,” I said.

“Tobacco is legal, and it kills twelve hundred people every day, in this country alone. Whereas, marijuana is not legal, and the worst thing it can do is give you the blind munchies that lead you to raid your neighbor’s refrigerator. My position is, as long as any government can arbitrarily decide which drugs are legal and which drugs are illegal, then anybody behind bars for a non-violent drug conviction, they are political prisoners.

“I personally found out that pot enhances a nice dinner, it enhances going to a movie, it enhances making love—I even smoke a joint before I roll one, because it enhances the rolling experience. HIGH TIMES once published a questionnaire, and one of the questions was ‘Is it possible to smoke too much pot?’ And a reader responded, ‘I don’t understand the question.’ I owe my longevity to never taking any legal drugs. Except, a few months ago I took an aspirin. But it was at a party. It was social toking.

There was a lot of peer pressure.”

A review of the panel in the Times stated: “Smith held forth on his experiences tagging along with the folks trying to find the world’s best weed (an honor that earns one an award called the ‘Cannabis Cup’) and Donahue described her life as part of a medical marijuana community in Northern California that she refers to as ‘Nugget Town.’

“But it was Krassner who, to borrow pot parlance, Bogarted the show. An old hand at working the cannabis crowd for laughs, he rolled quip after quip that had the crowd chucking throughout.”

I assume that was a typo, that the reporter meant “chuckling,” not “chucking.” As in upchucking. On the other hand, there were a few students who did vomit. But it wasn’t my fault.

I had seen them earlier, chasing toads around the campus, hoping to catch one and lick that slime at 4:20.
