Before I saw you, I heard you. We were at a Los Gatos sushi restaurant and a fussy infant was sitting in a high chair 20 feet away.

First your muttered an opinion about babies not belonging in restaurants, then how irresponsible the young parents were being and last how loud kids "are good for nothing." After his third or fourth innocent wail, you turned around and screamed out loud "Waaaahhhhhhh." Even the sushi chefs looked up at you with mouths agape. Bitch, are you serious? Kids are kids and sometimes they're noisy in public. If you had any self-respect you would have been humiliated to the point of tears. But no, then you marched up to the cashier and demanded that your food be wrapped to-go because they weren't reprimanding the parents. Good riddance!

You embarrassed yourself and most patrons applauded your exit.

@jennwadsworth - I thank you from the bottom of my heart for doing a good job reporting. My friend needed to be heard.

Hats off to Miss Filo for reading the law on bail, I wonder why the Attorney General of the State of California Kamala Harris didn’t pass that gem around to the rest of the prosecutors in the state.

Whirlwind 2016 TAKE TWO Ro Khanna easily won the rematch to unseat Congressman Mike Honda.

Election night sets stage for new beginnings—in and out of office

BY THE FLY

A

T THE ConXion to Community center near the Story Road Walmart, a packed room awaited state Assembly candidate Madison Nguyen amidst a backdrop of egg rolls, paper lanterns, yellow and red flags and sash-wearing Vietnamese beauty queens.

The former vice mayor of San Jose fell 365 votes behind ASH KALRA— with 52 out of 221 precincts reporting.

“Oh my gosh, it’s so close,” she exclaimed, and it would remain that way for the next few hours.

Luckily, there were slushie machines with margaritas and what the bartender referred to as “some orange kind of alcohol” to ease the tension and medicate the shadow of some orange kind of Elephant in the Room. After all, weed legalization wouldn’t take effect until midnight, four long hours away.

Broadcaster BOB KIEVE, looking damn good in a bow tie at the young age of 94, predicted “it will be a terrible four years,” saying DONALD TRUMP lacked the qualities one should look for “in a public

servant—or a human being.” He should know. Kieve worked as a White House speechwriter for President DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER and can remember the 1928 race between HERBERT HOOVER and AL SMITH. Kalra briefly distracted himself from the tension of the dead heat by dancing to a live band at his campaign headquarters off Capitol Expressway.

The soundtrack of “Uptown Funk” drowned out any conversation about Trump becoming the next commander in chief. Kalra’s campaign manager, SHAY FRANCO-CLAUSEN, took a break from the party inside the strip mall office to get some fresh air.

“This has been a really great campaign,” she said. “That’s despite the aggression we experienced.” A member of the Nguyen camp was accused of throwing wet ramen noodles on the windows of Kalra’s

campaign office. “Three times,” Franco-Clausen said, adding that signs also routinely went missing.

Kalra, wearing a sleek blue suit with a yellow-and-black necktie, shrugged it off. “You just put out some more signs,” he said.

Trailing his opponent by 49 votes hours after the counting began, he looked a little uneasy. “I wish they’d update the results,” he said. A few latecomers popped in once the band left, including county Supervisor Dave Cortese and Kalra’s City Council colleagues RAUL PERALEZ, TAM NGUYEN and Manh Nguyen.

At Fremont’s Royal Palace Banquet Hall, we sneaked down a service hallway where RO KHANNA sat quietly in a room of gilded armchairs with his wife, RITU. About to deliver a victory speech after beating MIKE HONDA

POLITICAL BATON Nonagenarian Bob Kieve (left) and Madison Nguyen’s 4-year-old daughter, Olivia, nine decades his junior.

FAST EDDIE San Jose Police Chief Eddie Garcia was all smiles after seeing Measure F returns.

to become Silicon valley’s newest congressman, Khanna granted a short interview before being interrupted by a congratulatory phone call from a supporter. “We’re going to win.

Sixteen points,” he assured the caller.

Khanna admits he’ll have some cachet in Congress after defeating a once-powerful incumbent, and because he’s been “branded as a tech candidate. That’s a huge responsibility, a huge honor.” As a member of the House’s minority party, Khanna said, he’ll be willing to reach across the aisle and engage in bipartisanship.

But he doesn’t entertain any illusions.

“Candidly, I think it’s going to be very divided going into Congress,” he said.

“There’s going to be great division.

I think what is pretty important is to articulate the progressive vision for this country, in contrast and in opposition to PAUL RYAN and Donald Trump.”

Khanna praised Honda’s service and his advocacy on behalf of minorities and transgendered communities. “I plan to reach out to him, extending friendship and respect,” Khanna said.

In one of the more bizarre election night parties in recent memory, San Jose Mayor SAM LICCARDO and his council colleagues joined Police Chief

TUNES TO BURN Art Boutiki brought out the band, helping to ease the pain of a rough night.

EDDIE GARCIA, as well as members of the Police Officers’ Association, at Rookies Sports Lodge to cheer on Measure F, the city’s pension reform settlement.

When the first wave of results came in, Liccardo began to shout and cheer before high-fiving Garcia.

Councilmembers Peralez, DON ROCHA, JOHNNY KHAMIS, CHAPPIE JONES, Vice Mayor ROSE HERRERA and City Manager NORBERTO DUEÑAS joined the fun in a private party room, watching a flatscreen with national election results and noshing on chicken wings and pizza in between beverages—which they swore were soda waters.

Unlike his 2014 mayor's race against county Supervisor Cortese, who didn’t concede until a few days after the election, Liccardo said he would hold off on going to bed Tuesday night to track results online.

“No, I’m going to stay up,” Liccardo said. “We’ve got a lot at stake in this race.”

Also ready to stay up late were Trump’s faithful, who waited for the outcome in a spacious warehouse at the end of a dark court in Sunnyvale.

About an hour before the first polls closed, about 100 people dined on pasta and focaccia catered by Tony and Alba’s. Tables were set facing a giant projector screen tuned to Fox News.

At a table near the back of the room, a group of Chinese Americans for Trump—the words were emblazoned on their T-shirts—traded anecdotes from the campaign trail.

Saratoga resident JOHN CAGLIOSTRO sported a blue number that read, “Deplorable Lives Matter,” which he said was his way of reclaiming a word HILLARY CLINTON used pejoratively about her rival’s supporters.

“Trump wasn’t my first choice,” Cagliostro said.“He wasn’t my second, third, fourth or fifth. BEN CARSON was my first. But this isn’t about one person, or even about Trump. This is bigger than him. We need to restore this country.”

RING THE BEALL State Sen. Jim Beall (right) racked up a re-election victory.

A man walking past took a dramatic spin on his heel and asked, “Did I hear someone say prison? You must be talking about Hillary. Put her in jail.”

Cagliostro gave him a knowing nod. “United we stand, Obama we fall,” he added.

For DILIP KUMAR, who owns his own software company, his allegiance to Trump is based less on religious fundamentalism than The Art of the Deal.

“He’s a good businessman,” said Kumar, who wore a straw fedora and a campaign shirt. “Because of his policies, we can bring jobs back to the U.S.” A Clinton win, he said, would perpetuate a corrupt status quo.

In the Democratic Central Committee campaign hub at The Plant at Monterey and Curtner, the mood at the Dem HQ was considerably less buoyant, as the GOP nominee edged ahead in the “race for 270” electoral votes nearly an hour after the polls closed. About

200 people perched on folding chairs watched MSNBC coverage in horror.

RANDI KINMAN, a West ValleyMission College District trustee, shook her head, calling the result “the end of the world. It’s the end of the world where people can be safe. It’s the end of the world where women can be safe, and minorities.”

AIMEE ESCOBAR, a county planning commissioner, said Trump’s bombardment into national politics marks the beginning of the end of civil discourse. “He made it OK to talk down to people,” she said. With results looking dismal for Clinton, the life-size cardboard cutout of her in a crisp pantsuit and winning smile began to feel cruelly out of place, someone remarked.

“This just seems just and right for this to be [Clinton’s] time,” LYNN ROGERS said. “So I’m loathe to accept this.” Moments before, she said, she’d been chanting with a Buddhist about Clinton “giving a voice to the voiceless ones.” At the back of the room, a Trump piñata hung on the wall with his paper mache arms outstretched and a sticker demanding to “stop bigotry” on the left side of his tissue blazer.

To round out the night, Fly made a brief stop by the South Bay Labor Council’s party to see what was cracking.

Life with t

A stunning election night upset rightfully has Americans concerned, but we will carry on

BY JOSH KOEHN

W

E KEEP CLICKING on news sites, hoping that maybe it isn’t true, that it’s just a reporting error, like the DEWEY BEATS TRUMAN headline. How could the pollsters and Nate SIlver have let us down so calamitously? To paraphrase Gerald Ford, our national nightmare is just beginning. But despair gets us nowhere, so we should ask ourselves: what would Sully do? He wouldn’t panic, that’s what. He’d talk to his co-pilot and go through a checklist, exhausting all safety procedures. It’s important to maintain one’s poise in the event of a crash landing, and we certainly look to be in for a bumpy ride.

Donald Trump will be the next president of the United States, and right now it’s important we all remain calm. We made it through eight years of George W. Bush, Karl Rove and Donald Rumsfeld. Actors Ronald Reagan and Arnold Schwarzenegger turned out to be better public servants than initially feared. We, too, shall survive whatever the future holds. We won’t heed The Onion’s election night instruction that “the nation’s optimists need to seriously shut the fuck up as soon as humanly fucking possible.”

1

One Branch

The founders split our government into three branches to ensure there was a leash on any president’s authority. No matter how narcissistic and thirsty for power our new tiny-pawed prince may be, there are constitutional restrictions on executive power, and Congress and the courts will enforce those checks and balances. This naturally leads to the question of how inclined Trump will be to bypass legislative consensus through executive orders, as well as his potential to reshape nearly half the Supreme Court—in many cases, the most important factor in determining a president’s legacy. To that, let us hope our justices diligently pop their vitamins and report all lumps.

2

He’ll Never Build the Wall

I can’t believe this shit worked. Have you ever built a fence, let alone a wall? It’s a pain in the ass. And it always costs way more than you think.

Trump has suggested it will cost $10 billion to $12 billion, but a Washington Post fact checker doubled that sum to a low bid of $25 billion. Then there’s ongoing maintenance and the the question of whom Trump expects to build the wall if he’s going to deport 11 million undocumented immigrants.

You think Joe Six-Pack is raring to relocate and work in the 100 degree West Texas heat so he can dig ditches and wage eminent domain disputes with fellow hard-working ’Mericans?

Can’t do her.

Speaking of the deportation force: Don’t worry. It’s just tough talk from a guy who claims to have never even grabbed a woman by the pussy. The deportation force would be an economic boondoggle well beyond the scope of any tower or wall the Trumps get built.

Estimates suggest that detaining and deporting every undocumented immigrant in the U.S. would shrink the country’s labor force by 11 million people, as well as reduce the GDP by $1.6 trillion. The project would also take about two decades to complete. At this juncture, current polling suggests the chances of Herr Trump getting a fifth term are unlikely.

Remember when racism went from overt to under-the-radar code? White America really did crawl into a comfy place. Then a black guy had to go and get elected president. Facebook and Twitter have helped the last of the closet racists find their stump and publicly out themselves. President Barack Obama called the increasing political and racial divisiveness his biggest disappointment, and it’s incredibly dispiriting. But the country isn’t about to stop having a discussion on race, law enforcement’s use of force and inherent bias. None of that would have happened without Obama, and the rhetoric of Trump has shed light on the alt-right. It’s easier to fight an enemy you can see.

California Has Its Act Together

States will likely gain greater autonomy under a Trump presidency, and Gov. Jerry Brown has done an exceptional job in his fourth term in office. The budget is back under control and the state Legislature acts with relative efficiency. Brown has found the sweet spot to tackle issues such as education, gun control, the environment and immigration. He’s also been a friend to low-income workers and is raising the minimum wage to $15 by 2021.

Taking that a step further, California could ignore some of Trump’s federal directives, and daily life would more or less continue on the same. However, Assemblyman Evan Low (D-Campbell) actually tweeted out a joke—but maybe not a joke?—this past week that California might want to consider seceding from the union in the case of a Trump victory.

In the disastrous case that @realDonaldTrump is elected, I will explore intro of a bill to have CA secede from the union. #kiddingnotkidding Gulp.

LOW AND BEHOLD Assemblyman Evan Low floated the idea of California seceding from the union in a tweet.

Marijuana Is Legal

President-elect Trump used to host parties for rich men to sleep with underage hookers and do blow as he walked the floor like a pimp (allegedly). The chances of him sending out feds to raid pot farms and collectives in California seems low. Now that Proposition 64 has passed, heavy hitters have their eye on California’s cannabis industry.

If Trump has even a shred of the business savvy he claims to possess, he’ll resist busting a cash cow.

The Children Will Learn Russian

It’s a beautiful language.

Trump has vowed to “drain the swamp” of Washington and dismantle a system that rewards the politically elite. One wonders if this will include the Republican Party. Democrats made some gains this election cycle, but not enough to regain control of the Senate.

Without any track record as a political executive, it’s difficult to know how Trump will govern. If his campaign

The Golden State Warriors are coming off back-to-back NBA Finals appearances and should have repeated as champions last year.

The team added Kevin Durant in the offseason and the four stars— Stephen Curry, Draymond Green, Klay Thompson and Durant— should have at least four more seasons to make a run at the title.

Also, Michelle Obama will probably be ready to run in four years, and she’ll be a better former first lady candidate than Hillary.

Wed, 11am, $45 Pace Art + Technology, Menlo Park

Until recently, motorists travelling along Embarcadero Road near Midtown in Palo Alto may have seen an outcropping of massive wicker huts on the Palo Alto Art Center’s lawn. Reminiscent of the gargantuan nests from Spike Jonze’s hallucinatory adaptation of Maurice Sendak’s Where the Wild Things Are, the interactive sculpture garden drew curious adults and playful children to the Art Center for years. The huts (appropriately titled “Double Take”) were recently torn down, but the artist who created them—Patrick Dougherty—has been commissioned to build another set in the same spot. Come watch him work through Nov. 18. (NV).

“The Institute Presents: Neurosociety” could be considered a scientific experiment disguised as a piece of theatre. Or, it could be a work of experiential theatre, with scientific bonafides conferred upon it by an extensive list of formidable research institutions. Once you’ve figured out who’s behind it, the whole thing starts making sense. David Byrne, a.k.a. the lead singer of The Talking Heads, has co-created (with tech investor Mala Gaonkar) a Marina Abramović-like performance space combined with a Milgram experiment. Self-knowledge is the goal but it won’t come without some degree of psychological risktaking. The exhibit runs through March 31. (JE)

Thu, 7:30pm, $55+ San Jose Center for the Performing Arts Charismatic celebrity chef, Anthony Bourdain dishes on sampling the world’s best cuisine and how his experiences have followed him back to his home kitchen. “The Hunger” tour finds Bourdain promoting his latest cookbook Appetites, which details the food he makes for his family. Appetites features tips on how to properly poach an egg, instructions on cooking gourmet dishes for kids and warns against various culinary sins—like stacking too many condiments on a burger.

The pioneer of food travel television will reflect upon his travels, his temptations and engage the audience in a Q&A afterward. (JT)

Hailing from the foggy hills of Santa Cruz, Cynge studied violin for a decade in New York before embarking on her first European tour. Since returning home she’s performed on the main stages of the Telluride Bluegrass and Rocky Mountain Folks festivals. Her latest album—Live in Altdorf, released in February—was recorded in Switzerland. It deals with themes of melancholy, tracing the somber feeling of summer fading to fall with plucky strings and haunting vocals. Already back in the studio, Cynge recently teased another work in progress, Let It Breathe.

“After 250,000 miles, it’s time,” she says. (JT)

Derek Vincent Smith, better known as the man behind Pretty Lights, has come a long way since his debut in early 2006. Beginning as a duo, the project downsized to a one-man operation after the release of Pretty Lights’ full-length debut Taking Up Your Precious Time. Since then, the Denverbased electronic music producer has gone on to play huge music festivals—including Coachella, Electric Zoo and Ultra—moving crowds with a blend of dreamy atmospherics, earworm melodies and infectious rhythms. These days, Smith employs a backing band, replete with a drummer, keyboardist and horn section.

Today’s academics celebrate Stravinski and Tchaikovski as masters of Russian classical music. In 100 years time, perhaps Arty will be hailed as a master of progressive house and trance. A classically trained musician, the young Artyom Stolyarov uses his talents to create massive, spaced-out bangers. He’s rocked the Electric Daisy Carnival, Tomorrowland and Amnesia Ibiza.

In 2015, Arty broke through in the U.S. with his full-length debut on Insomniac Records. Appropriately titled Glorious, the 14-song set is calibrated to move dance floors deep into the night, while also keeping an ear turned toward mainstream radio accessibility. (JT)

Known for mixing crude, off-thecuff observations with political rhetoric, Bill Maher has made a name for himself as one of the most controversial cable TV talk show hosts working today. He is also one of the most successful.

His show—Real Time with Bill Maher, which blends Maher’s humor with topical roundtable conversation—has been running for more than a decade and has earned more than 70 Emmy nods.

Maher began his career in showbiz as a stand-up comedian—first gaining recognition in the late ’70s. He brings his latest material to the San Jose this weekend. (TJ)

Organized by San Jose’s very own Yay Area ambassador and Drip Squad founder Traxamillion, this showcase boasts a bevy of hip-hop local talent from up and down the Bay. Headlined by Vallejo emcee Willie Joe—best known for his hard trappin, E-40featuring slapper, “I’m From The Bay Bruh”—Drip Fest also features up-and-coming artists UC Lil Kayla; Tee Why Entertainment signee BlueJeans; and East Side San Jose rapper Lazy-Boy, who is currently enjoying a wave of YouTube hits on his dope-dealing anthem, “Hella Missed Calls.” Plus Trax puts on a Tech Boom set, featuring needle drops by top South Bay emcees.

A perpetual student of nature, Levin-Lau finds inspiration in the circle of life, and particularly in fish and birds.

Star Sketch GREAT HEAVENS The work of self-made astronomer and artist Russell Crotty is on display at ‘Look Back in Time.’

SJICA exhibit keeps an eye on the stars with ‘Look Back in Time’

BY JEFFREY EDALATPOUR

F

OR SOME OF us, looking up and out into the depths of space is as unsettling as, say, swimming alongside a blue whale. There’s something about the infinity that can make a body feel small. But that’s not the case for artist Russell Crotty.

Marking the end of his two-year residency at the Institute of the Arts and Sciences at UC Santa Cruz, the San Jose Institute of Contemporary Art is presenting a solo exhibition of Crotty’s work.

With Look Back in Time—a collaboration between the IAS, the ICA

and the Lick Observatory—Crotty, a self-made astronomer, presents us with a beautiful interpretation of the stars.

The title refers both to the concept of “lookback time”—that the light we see travelling in our telescopes is from the past—and the historical objects on display from the Lick, which opened in 1888. According to Cathy Kimball, ICA’s executive director, Look Back was an opportunity, “not only to contextualize Crotty’s work, but to really bring it more to life so that you better understand where Russell has come from in his passion and study of astronomy and how in-depth it is.”

She also described it as a site-specific immersive installation. Kimball added, “On a clear day, we can all see (Lick from the ICA), but nobody really knows what’s in there. I love having objects here from the 1880s, and that

they’re as important for contemporary conversations as they ever were.” The Lick component fit into place due in part to a conversation between IAS Director John Weber and Tony Misch, a resident astronomer on Mt. Hamilton, who started The Lick Observatory Historical Collection.

Misch’s approach to organizing the 100-plus years of artifacts was twofold: “Nothing that’s on display can be seen at Lick, it’s all hidden away in the archives. My attraction to these things was visual as well as historic. My dream has always been to show them in an art context.” This exhibit, he says, was a dream come true. The Lick objects on display include photographic glass plates, scientific instruments and handwritten materials. Housed in a gallery room next to Crotty’s work, it’s easy to see the links between his finely wrought drawings and the 19th century notebooks full of minute etchings and scrawls.

Crotty’s work comes from direct observations he has made through his telescopes—all filtered through his imagination. He described the process

of his residency like this: “Go to the observatory, do the thumbnails, take them back to the studio, make something.” And make something he did, many somethings. Hanging from the rafters are globes, asteroids and “blue blobs.” These blobs, painted sky blue and cloud white, are shaped like the bodies of anonymous water birds.

They represent those parts of the sky that can’t be identified.

The gallery that focuses solely on Crotty’s work is arranged by a chart of the current universe, a history of everything, that goes back in time as far they can go. “They” being UC astronomers and astrophysicists, like Dr. Garth Illingworth, who Crotty spent time with over the last two years. Weber would take him to dropins with different scientists in order to talk about what they were working on. But Crotty also found inspiration from astronomers like Edward Emerson Barnard, who joined the Lick Observatory in 1887. Crotty pointed out that, “Barnard was the first to photograph the Milky Way with wide field cameras. He found these dark nebulae against these star clouds, towards the center of our galaxy and Sagittarius.” Crotty repurposed those dark objects into drawings that are nods to the photographs but represent his vision of the stars.

And in case you’re thinking of venturing up into space, Crotty has also drawn out an atlas of the sky on enormous pads of paper and architectural film. He likened some of the pages to the work of Alighiero Boetti, but his fanciful drawings map the constellations of the Northern Hemisphere.

Crotty talked briefly about the origins of his celestial interests. He was looking through a telescope borrowed from his junior high school: “Jupiter was rising over the bay in San Rafael.

The color, the subtlety. If you ever see Saturn, you’ll think someone taped a photo inside the telescope. It’s so crisp, and hard to describe.” For just a moment, he was looking back in time and retrieved something as fleeting as a comet racing away from him and into the past.

COMMON CULTURE The Indian Urban Relocation program was aimed at spurring assimilation, but it fostered cross-tribal unity.

THU, NOV 17 7–10 PM

Artist Evan Holm (whose work is included in the exhibition Indestructible Wonder) brings a new dimension to the word “DJ”: in his performance piece Submerged Turntables, he plays records underwater. Holm says “tone, melody and ultimately song is pulled back out of the pool, past the veil of the subconscious, out from under the crush of time, and back into a living and breathing realm.” Holm will spin the soundtrack for an evening of cocktails and creative fun inspired by the fall exhibitions.

Tribal Identity THE BEST POINT to start exploring Cement Prairie, a new exhibit at NUMU Los Gatos, is by watching the video testimonials in Voices of American Indian Urban Relocation in San Jose, CA. Recorded during the summer of 2016, these first person interviews, though plainly shot, provide moving oral histories by the men and women who experienced urban relocation in the 1950s.

Their stories ground the exhibit’s subtitle, The History and Legacy of the 1952 American Indian Relocation Program, making it less of a school lesson and more connected to locals in the community.

Cement Prairie Thru June 25, $6-$10 NUMU, Los Gatos

Al Cross is the first person who appears on screen. He relocated to San Jose from South Dakota some 50 years ago. Cross was one of the founders of an American Indian headquarters and health center in downtown San Jose.

“When they moved the Indians to these cities, they said they thought they would lose their Indianness,” Cross says, summarizing the impetus behind U.S. government’s urban relocation project. “And it worked just the opposite. Once they came to the cities, they became more Indian, much more aware of their Indianness. It reversed their idea of them losing their identity."

The story of urban relocation, though, is as varied as the people who experienced it. Before her family relocated, Renita Brien reminisced about playing on their Idaho ranch when she was a little girl. Hank Lebeau talked about his sense of isolation after arriving in California. But Jackie Tulee and Arvine Pilcher both found the new setting enlivening. Tulee and her family had orange juice for the first time. While Pilcher, smiling, recalled, “I could have kissed the ground. I was so happy to be here.”

Cement Prairie documents—with photographs and sacred objects—a group of people adapting to and fortifying their heritage away from the land they grew up on. Similar to the video narrative is a series of small framed images by the photographer Ilka Hartmann. Included among them, the now iconic raised fists of the Alcatraz occupiers. Hartmann, though German born, photographed many of the activists and their social movements in the 1960s and 1970s. Like the photographer Milton Rogovin, she enters communities as an outsider then delivers work as if she’s always been on the inside.

Lust For Life RAW POWER ‘Gimme Danger’ follows Iggy—from his upbringing in a Detroit trailer, to his induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Jarmusch’s ‘Gimme Danger’ captures the sound and fury of Iggy Pop

BY RICHARD VON BUSACK

I

N A DAY and age when the first name Iggy is too often paired with “Azalea,” a study of the original is more than justified. It says a lot about Iggy Pop’s career that you can cut about 20 years out of it, as Jim Jarmusch did for his exuberant Gimme Danger, and still have enough material for a prime rock documentary.

Interviewed by Jarmusch, Iggy is seated in a gilded Louis XVI-ish chair, with a pair of ceramic (one

hopes) skulls on nearby pedestals.

He’s wiry, fit, displaying blazingly white teeth for a leathery, walnuttanned senior. Instead of his usual deadpan long takes, Jarmusch (Only Lovers Left Alive) models this study on Julien Temple’s The Filth and the Fury, using found-footage: ’50s civics class films, excerpts of scratchy Hollywood romances, Stan Brakhage-style abstractions of Kodachrome cityscapes, and docudrama animation to follow Pop’s life as a musician.

The arc commences with the 1973 crashing and burning of the most extreme band of the era to the 2010 ratification of Iggy and The Stooges at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. In between, Iggy and The Stooges played Coachella with Saratoga-based guitarist

James Williamson in the lineup—Iggy’s coauthor on one of his most enduring recordings, released as Kill City.

The Stooges’ two records on Elektra, recorded at the end of the 1960s, were not only the launching pad for punk, but—Jarmusch argues—they were experimental music. Iggy’s first job was at an Ann Arbor record store, where he was introduced to the work of Coltrane, John Cage, Cathy Berberian and Harry Partch. Taken as a kid to tour the Ford Motor Company’s River Rouge plant in Detroit, Iggy was fascinated by the KERRANG! of a metal stamping machine, and he sought to get that metal machine music into The Stooges’ sound. The band whacked industrial steel barrels with hammers, and treated their instruments, lowering the microphone into the bell of a Victrola-like sound horn to get a roar of controllable feedback.

Born James Osterberg, Iggy was raised in a Redman New Moon mobile home—the same make of trailer Lucy and Desi shared in The Long Long

Trailer—which he shared with his parents and his drum kit. (“I was lucky to live in close quarters with my parents in a quiet place,” Iggy says now.) He started out playing high school dances, catching the eye with his massive drum riser, 16 feet off the ground.

Later, after he “got tired of looking at asses” from his drum throne, he turned into a vocalist and performer.

His lyric-writing was based on a principle he learned from kid show host Soupy Sales, who used to ask for mail that was “25 words or less.” The songs on The Stooges, Fun House and the later Raw Power always had a high ratio of aural assault to words.

Roving from Detroit to L.A. to New York, Iggy and his band moved in such high-toned circles as the Warhol crowd—John Cale and Nico were present at The Stooges’ recording sessions. Iggy remembers them looking like Gomez and Morticia Addams. Yet the band never made the transition into nationwide success, as did their Elektra label-mates, The Doors. Perhaps their music needed time to sink in.

These days you can’t rightly call yourself a punk band until you can mangle “I Want to Be Your Dog.” Gimme Danger demonstrates reverence for a one of a kind collective of musicians, particularly the interviewed Asheton brothers and Williamson. But Jarmusch overlooks Iggy’s devastating Lust for Life and The Idiot, and his uneven but irresistible early ’80s sound—such as “I’m Bored” and the very touching confessional “Ordinary Bummer.”

One corrective: Iggy grouses about Joe Cocker’s song “You Are So Beautiful” in a story about opening for Cocker in 1969; back then, Cocker was the front man for a sharp British blues band, and that unctuous Billy Preston cover was six years in Cocker’s future.

Some of The Stooges’ music is safe enough in 2016 to use as a backdrop for luxury car commercials, but that doesn’t stop the intensity and buzzsaw energy of Iggy himself. Seen live in St. James Park a couple of years ago, he was still suffused with raw power, a human whirlwind.

Damaged Goods SURVIVOR Keith Morris founded Black Flag, Circle Jerks and now fronts punk rock supergroup OFF!

OFF! frontman bears his hardcore soul in new memoir, ‘My Damage’

BY GARY SINGH

K

EITH MORRIS, the legendary vocalist for OFF!, stands as one of the grand elders atop the punk rock family tree of Los Angeles. His new memoir, a snarling page-turner titled My Damage: The Story of a Punk Rock Survivor, is culled from a lifetime of fronting multiple major acts— including Black Flag and Circle Jerks.

Brimming with stories of wild success and epic failure, the book demonstrates that Morris was never more than a few degrees of separation

from almost every SoCal band worth a damn in the last 40 years. A riotous, yet humble, endeavor, My Damage rips right on by. It’s a quick read.

“It’s like listening to a Black Flag album, then listening to a Circle Jerks album, and then listening to an OFF! record,” Morris says of Damage. “It's got that kind of pacing, which is perfect.”

To this day, both the four-bar logo of Black Flag and the skanking Circle Jerks kid with the flannel tied around his waist remain universal punk rock symbols. Morris now fronts two bands: OFF!, a punk rock supergroup of sorts, which features guitarist Dimitri Coats, bassist Steven McDonald, and drummer Mario Rubalcaba; and Flag, which features a cohort of former Black Flag players covering songs from every era of the seminal hardcore outfit’s discography.

While these groups remain Morris’ most famous projects, My Damage reveals aspects of his life before, after and between the music. Readers take away a street-level, cracked-window peek into the world of L.A. hardcore from its very inception.

“Before I had taken my detour to play music, I had something else I wanted to do—and that was teach art,” Morris says, explaining that he had secured a scholarship to the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena. But after critiquing all the bad art created by the stoners in his high school, Morris traded insults with a teacher and his scholarship evaporated.

Pivoting away from visual art, Morris turned to music. It wasn’t long before he met guitarist Greg Ginn. The pair sowed the seeds for what would become Black Flag at a Journey concert in 1976.

From that point on, historical and hysterical connections crop up on practically every other page. On one occasion, Spinal Tap, Slayer and the Circle Jerks all opened up for The

Blasters (Read: Huh?). At certain junctures Morris saw AC/DC with Bon Scott at the Whiskey and lived with Jeffrey Lee Pierce of the Gun Club. He partied in Hollywood mansions and the grimiest alleys.

He appeared in Repo Man for 30 seconds, and his chiropractor played bass on the first two Elvis Costello LPs. In the ’80s, Morris crossed paths with just about every L.A. musician you’d expect—punk and otherwise.

Mötley Crüe, Los Lobos, Thelonious Monster and David Lee Roth all make appearances, in various conditions.

Morris got clean 28 years ago, and much of his journey to sobriety emerges throughout the book. He never gets righteous or preachy. He just takes the time to acknowledge the ways in which he treated people like shit or fucked up someone else’s party. He maintains that he’s never relapsed, even though he threw himself back into the fray of gigging just one month after leaving the machinery of a drug-addled life.

Detailed revelations also surface about Morris’ experience working for the darker side of the business—the record companies. He doesn’t paint a wholesome picture. They used and abused him more than once.

Near the end of the book, Morris reflects on Black Flag’s ascent— explaining that the band exploded out of a vastly different Hermosa Beach. Nowadays, the town is a wasteland of jock bars, foodie hipsters, mini malls and perpetual spring-break oafs. A history mural depicts Black Flag, but features Henry Rollins instead of Morris, the band’s original singer, the one who actually grew up in Hermosa.

“They’ve destroyed the place,” Morris writes. “It’s like any beach city in Florida now.”

DOCUMENTARY

YOUNG LOVE A new documentary explores the deaths of John ‘Sid Vicious’ Ritchie and Nancy Spungen.

Punk, Junk, Murder THE “SID” IN John Ritchie’s stage name was in honor of his pet hamster; the “Vicious” was because he was so mild mannered. By the time Sex Pistols’ co-lead Sid Vicious was found dead on Groundhog Day 1979, the victim of a too-hot shot of heroin, he had a murder charge hanging over him. Was he indeed a killer? Did someone else ice Sid’s live-in Nancy Spungen with a knife at the Chelsea Hotel? Sad Vacation by Danny Garcia seeks to clear the fog with some grand jury testimony and interviews with some surviving Sad Vacation downtown NYC characters.

Licensing fees, there were few, as the soundtrack indicates. Garcia is farming played-out soil Nov 12, 8pm, $10 compared to The Filth and the Fury, or Alex Cox’s fictionalized Sid and Nancy, or Deborah Spungen’s The Ritz, memoir of raising her deeply troubled daughter, And I Don’t Want to Live This Life. Garcia has a lot of San Jose making-do to do here on screen. However, it’s not a total loss: the matrons and geezers on screen—all of whom were once young punks and punkettes—have their own conflicting accounts of the Sid and Nancy courtship. Some remember Nancy as a girl generous with the money she earned stripping on the Deuce. Others admire her scorecard as a groupie (Iggy, David Johansen, and Steve Jones of the Pistols are all there.)

Some of the interviewees, such as “Stinker” Gordon of the band Real Hell, murmur covertly in alleys and staircases of the possibility of a different killer. Maybe a stiffed drug dealer. Maybe, but likely not, the Sex Pistols’ impresario Malcolm McLaren. Perhaps the highly shady “bodyguard” (i.e., medicine-fetcher) Michael “Rockets Redglare” Morra.

Making a documentary is all about staging. The Sex Pistols’ roadie Steve “Roadent” Conolly has the sun streaming through the window behind him, as he speaks with a mild voice in a friendly pub. When he describes Nancy as “a whiny, whiny horrible vampire woman” or tells of her habit of leaving a cab with the meter running waiting all day outside of Harrods (“Very punk…”) it’s easy to say a regretless sayonara to the “Juliet of punk,” as one friend calls her here. It’s also easy to agree with Conolly that it wasn’t Nancy that drove Sid to death, so much as junk-addled NYC during its rottenest days.

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY ARIES (March 21-April 19): Now and then you display an excessive egotism that pushes people away. But during the next six weeks you will have an excellent chance to shed some of that tendency, even as you build more of the healthy pride that attracts help and support. So be alert for a steady flow of intuitions that will instruct you on how to elude overconfidence and instead cultivate more of the warm, radiant charisma that is your birthright.

You came here to planet Earth not just to show off your bright beauty, but also to wield it as a source of inspiration and motivation for those whose lives you touch.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): "How often I found

where I should be going only by setting out for somewhere else," said inventor Buckminster Fuller.

I don't fully endorse that perspective. For example, when I said goodbye to North Carolina with the intention to make Northern California my new home, Northern California is exactly where I ended up and stayed. Having said that, however, I suspect that the coming months could be one of those times when Fuller's formula applies to you. Your ultimate destination may turn out to be different from your original plan. But here's the tricky part: If you do want to eventually be led to the situation that's right for you, you have to be specific about setting a goal that seems right for now.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): If you were an obscenely

rich plutocrat, you might have a pool table on your super yacht. And to ensure that you and your buddies could play pool even in a storm that rocked your boat, you would have a special gyroscopic instrument installed to keep your pool table steady and stable. But I doubt you have such luxury at your disposal. You're just not that wealthy or decadent. You could have something even better, however: metaphorical gyroscopes that will keep you steady and stable as you navigate your way through unusual weather. Do you know what I'm referring to?

If not, meditate on the three people or influences that might best help you stay grounded. Then make sure you snuggle up close to those people and influences during the next two weeks.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): The coming weeks will

be a good time to fill your bed with rose petals and sleep with their aroma caressing your dreams. You should also consider the following acts of intimate revolution: listening to sexy spiritual flute music while carrying on scintillating conversations with interesting allies . . . sharing gourmet meals in which you and your sensual companions use your fingers to slowly devour your delectable food . . . dancing naked in semi-darkness as you imagine your happiest possible future. Do you catch my drift, Cancerian?

You're due for a series of appointments with savvy bliss and wild splendor.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): "I have always wanted . . .

my mouth full of strange sunlight," writes Leo poet Michael Dickman in his poem "My Honeybee." In another piece, while describing an outdoor scene from childhood, he innocently asks, "What kind of light is that?" Elsewhere he confesses, "What I want more than anything is to get down on paper what the shining looks like." In accordance with the astrological omens, Leo, I suggest you follow Dickman's lead in the coming weeks. You will receive soulful teachings if you pay special attention to both the qualities of the light you see with your eyes and the inner light that wells up in your heart.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): The Passage du Gois is

a 2.8-mile causeway that runs between the western French town of Beauvoir-sur-Mer and the island of Noirmoutier in the Atlantic Ocean. It's only usable twice a day when the tide goes out, and even then for just an hour or two. The rest of the time it's under water. If you hope to walk or bike or drive across, you must accommodate yourself to nature's rhythms. I suspect there's a metaphorically similar phenomenon in your life, Virgo. To get to where you want to go next, you can't necessarily travel exactly when you feel like it. The path will be open and available for brief periods. But it will be open and available.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Modern toilet paper appeared in 1901, when a company in Green Bay, Wisconsin, began to market "sanitary tissue" to the public. The product had a small problem, however.

By ROB BREZSNY week of November 9

Since the manufacturing process wasn't perfect, wood chips sometimes remained embedded in the paper. It was not until 1934 that the product was offered as officially "splinter-free." I mention this, Libra, because I suspect that you are not yet in the splinter-free phase of the promising possibility you're working on. Keep at it. Hold steady.

Eventually you'll purge the glitches.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): "Don't be someone

that searches, finds, and then runs away," advises novelist Paulo Coelho. I'm tempted to add this caveat: "Don't be someone that searches, finds, and then runs away—unless you really do need to run away for a while to get better prepared for the reward you have summoned . . . and then return to fully embrace it." After studying the astrological omens, Scorpio, I'm guessing you can benefit from hearing this information.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Go ahead

and howl a celebratory "goodbye!" to any triviality that has distracted you from your worthy goals, to any mean little ghost that has shadowed your good intentions, and to any faded fantasy that has clogged up the flow of your psychic energy. I also recommend that you whisper "welcome!" to open secrets that have somehow remained hidden from you, to simple lessons you haven't been simple enough to learn before now, and to breathtaking escapes you have only recently earned. P.S.: You are authorized to refer to the coming weeks as a watershed.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Musician and

visual artist Brian Eno loves to dream up innovative products. In 2006, he published a DVD called 77 Million Paintings, which uses technological trickery to generate 77 million different series of images.

To watch the entire thing would take 9,000 years.

In my opinion, it's an interesting but gimmicky novelty—not particularly deep or meaningful.

During the next nine months, Capricorn, I suggest that you attempt a far more impressive feat: a richly complex creation that will provide you with growthinducing value for years to come.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Do you know about the Lords of Shouting? According to Christian and Jewish mythology, they're a gang of 15.5 million angels that greet each day with vigorous songs of praise and blessing. Most people are too preoccupied with their own mind chatter to pay attention to them, let alone hear their melodious offerings. But I suspect you may be an exception to that rule in the coming weeks. According to my reading of the astrological omens, you'll be exceptionally alert for and receptive to glad tidings. You may be able to spot opportunities that others are blind to, including the chants of the Lords of Shouting and many other potential blessings.

Take advantage of your aptitude!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Greenland sharks live a

long time—up to 400 years, according to researchers at the University of Copenhagen. The females of the species don't reach sexual maturity until they're 150.

I wouldn't normally compare you Pisceans to these creatures, but my reading of the astrological omens suggests that the coming months will be a time when at long last you will reach your full sexual ripeness.

It's true that you've been capable of generating new human beings for quite some time. But your erotic wisdom has lagged behind. Now that's going to change. Your ability to harness your libidinous power will soon start to increase. As it does, you'll gain new access to primal creativity.

Homework: Compare the person you are now with who you were two years ago.

Make a list of three important differences.

POT SHOTS

NEW DAY Recreational marijuana is now legal in California, but it will take some time to fully implement.

Puff, Puff Passed

P

OLLSTERS WERE RIGHT about Proposition 64. Two decades after legalizing medicinal cannabis, California voters on Tuesday approved its recreational use. The initiative, which garnered 55.6 percent of the vote by press time, was one of nine weed-related measures throughout the nation and one of three to pass recreational use.

“This is a titanic shift in U.S. drug policy,” San Jose-based pot lobbyist Sean Kali-Rai said. “I think it will help get rid of those last vestiges of stigma attached to medical marijuana, or marijuana in general.”

Most Americans say they’re already on board with lifting the prohibition on recreational use. A recent Gallup Poll found that public support of legalization reached 60 percent nationwide—pot’s highest approval rating in 47 years.

Sanctioning social along with therapeutic use will galvanize an already rapidly growing industry, Kali-Rai predicts. The Golden State, which boasts the sixth largest economy on the planet, already sits on a $2.7 billion cannabis industry. Expanding the market to nonmedicinal use has the potential to double that, according to Prop. 64 backers.

But the most important thing about the legalization measure that won the blessing of California voters this week is how it affects people of color. The new law decriminalizes marijuana possession of up to an ounce for personal use and reinvests some of its tax proceeds back to communities that bore the brunt of racialized drug policies.

“That’s the biggest thing, that this is a major criminal justice reform,” said Kali-Rai, adding that the five collectives he works with were all in for Prop. 64. “A lot of [my clients] at heart were medical marijuana activists before getting into this business. They’ve seen families torn apart, children sent to foster care, they saw lives being destroyed.”

When do the new rules go into effect? Technically, some components of the measure went into effect at midnight. As of now, anyone 21 and older can keep up to an ounce for personal use and grow up to six pot plants, as long as they’re obscured from public view.

Except for the new liberties for personal use, most of the same old rules apply. In San Jose, the only 16 cannabis collectives licensed to operate will still require a doctor’s recommendation and card. And it will stay that way until City Hall reworks its regulatory scheme to include nonmedical marijuana.

“This is not a green light,” Kali-Rai said. “Just because it passes doesn’t mean you can start acting like an idiot.” —Jennifer Wadsworth

Back to School WATCH OUT Lunchtime guests can come to the New Ballet School to see up-and-coming dancers hone their craft.

New Ballet School rises from ashes at reinvented Hammer 2.0

BY GARY SINGH

L

AST SPRING, after Silicon Valley Ballet circled the drain for the final time, Dalia Rawson got to thinking. As director of the ballet’s training school, which likewise collapsed with the pro company, she realized the need for a new endeavor, a new professional ballet training program with a focus on dancer health and child development.

Hence, the New Ballet School was born, using primarily the same team that ran the old school for many years.

Staff had to volunteer at first.

Families and students had paid tuition through the summer and those funds were lost due to the financial ruin of the professional company. But now that the New Ballet School is out of the starting gate, the company is poised to present a totally reimagined version of the Nutcracker in the totally reimagined Hammer Theatre Center, or “Hammer 2.0” as some are calling it.

“It was due to the passion and dedication of a lot of people that we were able to fully launch, and now

we're at a point where we're in a future-funding model,” Rawson says.

“Tuition that comes in now goes to future programs. We've gotten over that hump through a lot of volunteer hours and some generous donations from a few close ballet family friends.”

There’s more. As of right now, the New Ballet School is opening up its headquarters for anyone who wants to stop by at lunchtime and watch the dancers rehearse. That is, every Friday from 1pm-2:15pm, from now until Dec. 9, and then again after the holidays. Anyone can tromp up to the third floor of 40 N. First St. in downtown San Jose and have a look at the artists in motion. The dancers are ages 17-22, right on the cusp of their professional careers, and they’re essentially putting in eighthour workdays. Many dancers have traveled here from other parts of the

country to train. Inside, plenty of open chairs are available, and guests can bring food and be as loud as they want. Photographers also regularly stop by to hone their own craft.

What an idea.

“For a lot of people who think they don't like ballet, I feel like they haven't been exposed to it in a way where they can get really close and see the passion, and the athleticism, and the virtuosity of the dancers up close,” Rawson says. “This is a really easy way for us to provide that opportunity to San Jose.”

Also, the New Ballet School is one of the first locally grown companies jumping at the opportunity to launch the newish Hammer Theatre Center.

If this seems like a strange twist on musical chairs, it probably is. From the ashes of the ballet comes a new ballet school to help launch a theater from the ashes of another failed San Jose arts organization. I’m not quite sure how to interpret that one, but it’s a sign that people are not giving up.

Perhaps the best aspect of all is the version of the Nutcracker promised by the New Ballet School. This won’t be the same beaten-to-death production you’ve seen a thousand other times in a thousand other venues. Tchaikovsky’s music will still be there, of course, but everything else will be set in San Jose circa 1905, with period costumes and a skyline including the Electric Light Tower.

The Land of the Sweet is replaced by the Valley of Heart's Delight.

The usual Nutcracker characters will instead be based on local people or even crops that one might have encountered during that era. For example, the Flower Waltz is led by a California Poppy rather than the traditional rose or the Dew Drop Fairy. Instead of the same old Mother Goose or Mother Ginger, there’s a character named after Casa de Fruta in Hollister. There’s even a Gilroy garlic harvester who becomes enchanted by a rattlesnake. Out in the lobby, History San Jose plans to install a pop-up gallery to showcase toys and dolls from 1905 plus other historical information.

All in all, Rawson is looking forward to reimagining Hammer 2.0.

“It is a fantastic theater for dance,” she says. “It's a fantastic theater for anything, but especially for this type of a dance production. There isn't a bad seat in that house.”

Vahl’s Holla YOU SANG TO ME Karaoke is a siren song for long-time regulars at Vahl’s.

Alviso’s legendary cocktail lounge, Vahl’s, has still got the moves

BY TOMEK MACKOWIAK

T

HE DAY WAS exceedingly pleasant in between fits of rain. Mr. Harada and I decided to mount our off-road unicycles and do some 1x1 riding. Tire pressure: check.

Disc brakes: tuned nicely.

Carbon disk wheels: straight.

Performance analysis apps: touched to start.

It took several hours, but the effort was worthwhile as we made our way down the Guadalupe trail toward the docks of San Jose’s luscious

Alviso marina. The experience was absolutely “lifelike,” and some would argue even better than the real thing.

Our first stop was The South Bay Yacht Club, which was hosting an opulent winter celebration. A swanky 28-foot fiberglass sailboat motored in and we waved “ahoy,” which was met with a warm retort. The boat was coming in from Redwood City and the tide was in full flood. The marsh was a desaturated scene that knew how to speak only in muted yellows and blues. Countless species of birds provided background music, as the banks of the Alviso Slough are an untamed stage. The interior of Alviso, however, is even more interesting.

In one of the last undeveloped areas of San Jose, Alviso is a time

capsule worth investigating. Those who seek a view into the past need not look any further than Vahl’s Restaurant and Cocktail Lounge.

We docked our uni-steeds to the rack out front and proceeded inside.

Vahl’s has an Old Vegas, “Smokey and the Bandit” feel that makes one want to splurge on a Trans Am and Burt Reynolds tattoo. The interior is vintage, nicely kept and the bar has plenty of seating.

“Frank” introduced himself as our bartender for the night. He’s one of the old-school Alviso types Martin Scorsese would character study. The kind of guy you need in a bind. A man who can talk your head off but knows when to zip it. Frank sized us up in an instant and realized Mr. Harada and I weren’t from around here. Still he was a gracious host, introducing us to the local culture.

Frank is Vahl’s nephew. She opened up the restaurant and cocktail lounge in 1941-42, after running La Costa in downtown San Jose on the corner of Post and Market. Valh’s is Alviso.

The place has a rare pedigree and the menu reflects it. The frog’s legs were exceptional. The tender meat and crispy exterior left me to assume they were broiled and then fried. Their delicate texture and flavor were a perfect pairing to many rounds of Sierras. If the hind quarters of a perfectly cooked amphibian weren’t enough, a crew known as the Karaoke Pals began to set the stage for an unforgettable night.

They had their own sound system and distributed party decor to the small crowd at the bar, and Frank warned us that the scene would be on fire in less than an hour.

In one of the last undeveloped areas of San Jose, Alviso is a time capsule worth investigating As he foretold, the room began to fill with the kind of fun-seekers to bring the house down. The South Bay has a lot of party scenes, and Mr. Harada and I have experienced most, but Vahl’s—on a weekend night—is one of the best. Mr. Harada and I observed in reverence from the bar.

These people were giddy as children. These people were adults when Kennedy was president.

We spoke to a couple that was turning 80 in the next few months, while others sang haunting melodies of yesteryear. The karaoke set featured tunes that predated the invention of Rock & Roll. Mr. Harada and I sat and reveled in the songs and stories, the elegance that only a small portion of our population possesses.

It’s a rare, mid-century mentality, and it lives at Vahl’s in Alviso. Enjoy for as long as possible.

A Mariscos Masterpiece

H

ECTOR PLASCENCIA has deservedly earned the reputation of a mariscos master. Once a partner in South Bay seafood destinations such as Día De Pesca, Órale and Maverick’s, Plascencia is a 15-year veteran in the industry and he personally handcrafts every entrée, appetizer and salsa that meets the table.

His latest incarnation, Las Delicias del Mero, Mero! Mexican Grill, has already turned heads in South San Jose while placing an emphasis on family, from customers to cooks. The entire staff is comprised of Señor Plascencia’s relatives and one can tell by their interactions—as well as those with customers—that this is a labor of love.

The interior has a lively nautical décor with walls adorned in a calming ocean blue, and the ocean inspiration dominates the menu. While they do have some non-pescetarian options (e.g. pollo asado, carne asada, chile verde), it would be akin to going to Morton’s and skipping the steak.

El Mero Mero’s house specialty is their fish tacos ($4.10 each), which come in a myriad of choices: tilapia, halibut, prawns, tuna, snapper, salmon, octopus and even crab. I can firmly attest from multiple visits that these are by far the best fish tacos I’ve eaten. The standouts are their grilled scallops and fried (or grilled) halibut. The tacos are prepared simply, with a little cabbage, guacamole and either pico de gallo or their signature chipotle dressing. Loaded with fish, three of these bad boys will put away even the heartiest of eaters.

El Mero Mero also offers a small but quality selection of oyster dishes, including a nice rendition of classics they call Ostiones Rockafela ($11.50/halfdozen). They’re served with the typical bacon and parmesan and an added touch of their delicious chipotle sauce. These were so rich, cheesy and delightful that even my normally no-oysters-for-me companion was clamoring for más.

On the entrées, the Camarones Al Cucuy ($13.80) offer spicy, homemade comfort. Their devilishly hot red sauce pairs really well with the plump shrimp, fluffy homemade Spanish rice and pinto beans. The only thing that would’ve enhanced this dish are fresh corn tortillas, which Las Delicias doesn’t offer.

El Mero Mero has helped to close the seafood gap in San Jose, providing a much needed boon to the Santa Teresa area—as evidenced by a sardine-packed house on a recent Friday afternoon. —John Dyke LAS DELICIAS DEL MERO, MERO! MEXICAN GRILL 5899 Santa Teresa Blvd, Ste 109, San Jose. 408.578.4077
