According to Barron’s, “The formula [used] to rank advisors has three major components: assets managed, revenue produced and quality of the advisor’s practice. Investment returns are not a component of the rankings because an advisor’s returns are dictated largely by each client’s risk tolerance. The quality-of-practice component includes an evaluation of each advisor’s regulatory record.”The rankings are based on the universe of applications submitted to Barron’s. The selection process begins with a nomination and application provided to Barron’s. Principals of Edelman Financial Services LLC self-nominated the firm and submitted quantitative and qualitative information to Barron’s as requested. Barron’s reviewed and considered this information which resulted in the rankings on Aug. 27, 2012/Aug. 28, 2010/Aug. 31, 2009.

In flight: PA Ballet principal dancer Jermel Johnson in “Penumbra,” choreographed by Matthew Neenan. (Photo by Alexander Iziliaev)

WHAT’S HAPPENING — BEFORE IT HAPPENS ... DANCE

PA Ballet: A 50th Finale

It’s hard to believe the golden anniversary of PA Ballet, Philadelphia’s biggest and most serious ballet company, is upon us, and they’re attempting to go out with a refined, frenetically-charged bang. A 50th Finale: The Ultimate Celebration has been culled together to represent what the company is capable of: abstraction, tender romanticism, intimacy, moody architectural tension. With a stunning fourpiece grand finale, artistic director Roy Kaiser’s mission to highlight the diversity of talent within his ranks is on wondrous display. The night promises a memorable mix of edge and mystique. William Forsythe’s “In the middle, somewhat elevated” is set to Thom Willems, an electro soundscape creator whose angular compositions will juxtapose classical ballet in unexpected ways. Jerome Robbins’ “In the Night” will stage three couples in extended variations on the classic pas de deux, balancing, as they’ve phrased it: “tender and young, mature and balanced, and passionately fiery.” PA Ballet is always good for a understated and sexy exploration of couples, love, conflict and, often, resolution. The company’s own Matthew Neenan is responsible for two more pieces—one that’s fresh and one that’s a favorite. The latter, “Penumbra,” was created in 2008 for only five dancers, and it’s executed to Alberto Ginastera’s cello and piano work that’ll radiate sadness, melancholy and visceral blues. But “La Chasse” is what PA Ballet subscribers are undoubtedly awaiting with the most anticipation. French for “the hunt,” it’s set to Schubert and seeks to bring to life a 1911 painting depicting capture and escape by Albert Gleizes. The work is a duet that will feature principal dancer Lauren Fadeley and wildly talented company member Alexander Peters. Peters captured hearts and breaths in May’s Director’s Choice and seems to be increasingly employed to great effect by Kaiser and his team. This program also marks the finale of company member Jonathan Stiles, whose appearance in “Penumbra” on Sunday will mark his last with his second family of 15 years. Bravo, sir.

Bela Lugosi may be dead, but the godfather of goth lives on. Peter Murphy, the gaunt, gloomy ex-vocalist for early ‘80s legends Bauhaus—who played an instrumental role in the establishment of the goth genre and subculture—embarks on a full North American tour in support of Lion, his 10th solo LP, produced by Martin Glover (of Killing Joke fame). Bauhaus disbanded in 1983 and remained apart until their surprise release of new material, Go Away White, in 2008. But citing irreconcilable differences, the band didn’t tour and called it quits for good. Whatevs, ‘cause since that initial ‘83 breakup, Murphy had established a successful solo career in the band’s musical footsteps, his position in the pantheon of post-punk frontmen clearly secure. The man’s footprint has been inarguably far-reaching. Joining Murphy at the Troc tonight will be Austin natives Ringo Deathstarr, who dropped their latest EP, Gods Dream, last year. The trio is heavily influenced by the first wave of shoegazers and match that audio onslaught with breathy dual vocals. Having previously toured with The Smashing Pumpkins, these vets are seasoned in the art of warming large audiences. Get out to the Troc early for this one. // DANIEL GELB

The 4th Annual Philadelphia Vendy Awards The Vendy Awards, a no-holds-barred foodtruck competition, started in NYC nearly a decade ago. Spilling over to Philly in 2011, this intense clash of the street-chef titans has since been one of the summer’s most eagerly anticipated events. The culinary contest not only celebrates the new and exciting dishes available all over the city, but also acknowledges the hard work and dedication of food truck vendors across the region. Competitors are each vying for bragging rights, alongside the coveted Vendy Cup, and victories in certain categories, like Rookie of the Year, the People’s Taste Awards, Best Dessert, and the always-fun “Messy Yet Tasty” Award. This year’s tournament features a total of 14 local established and newbie trucks—the Cow and Curd, Pie Stand, Cheese E. Wagon and Milk + Sugar among them—each of which challenge the way we think of meals on wheels. In addition to giving these culinary artists a chance to strut their stuff, the Philadelphia Vendy Awards are a non-profit fundraiser for the Food Trust, a local organization dedicated to establishing and maintaining a healthy, local food economy. Many of the trucks utilize only locally-grown produce and meats, enabling their resulting bites to truly be a taste of the area. The price of admission includes all you can eat from the competing vendors, all you can drink, live music, and after-party drink specials from nearby Fette Sau and Frankford Hall. // KENNEDY ALLEN

Tigers Jaw Lately, you’d be hard-pressed to find a recent article about Scranton indie punks Tigers Jaw that doesn’t devote its first paragraph to the elephant in the room: Last year, three members announced their departure from the group, casting doubt over its future until they announced they’d recorded a new LP with all original members. The resulting album, Charmer—released last week via Run for Cover Records—sounds like their deepest effort thus far, guided by the ever-scrupulous hand of producer Will Yip. Each of its 12 tracks retains the familiar dichotomy of mostly-sanguine melodies versus saddening lyrics, and, as always, the band knows how to craft a hook. This time around, the songwriting’s got an even sharper edge. Even more notably, Charmer finds keyboardist Brianna Collins grabbing hold of the spotlight her honeyed voice deserves with “Hum” after previously taking a vocal backseat to guitarists Ben Walsh and Adam McIlwee. Even drummer Pat Brier gets to show off his Vedder-esque growl on “I Envy Your Apathy.” Now that it’s left to Walsh and Collins to carry the band on their own, how do they soldier on? Fans would probably be satisfied with just the two of them playing a run of strippeddown acoustic shows, like their recent in-store performance at F.Y.E. in Center City, and there’s a hilarious gem of an Instagram video featuring a dude getting up and dancing to “Distress Signal” to prove it. Instead, they’ve enlisted a scene supergroup of drummer Elliot Babin (Touche Amore), bassist Luke Schwartz (Make Do and Mend) and guitarist Jake Woodruff (Defeater) to round out its summer lineup, which kicks off tonight with Charmer’s official release show at Union Transfer. // JAKE ABBATE 8:30pm. $12-$14.

The Dead Kennedys are, amazingly, touring this summer, following a trend that’s been going on with a horde of ‘80s punk bands as of late. Last year, Black Flag reunited as two separate bands made up of lineups from two separate incarnations. Screeching Weasel is a band again, containing one original member. The Descendents play one-off reunions from time to time. Reagan Youth gave it another shot in ‘06 after having been broken up for 17 years. Several ex-members of the Ramones tour in individual bands solely playing Ramones covers. The Misfits are together again, too, sort of. In many of these cases, the breakups and make-ups have been filled with very un-punk battles over the legal rights to monikers and merchandise, the most public of which were probably The Misfits and Dead Kennedys—both of which are touring without their original lead singers and stand to make a lot of money selling their emblems on t-shirts to scores who aren’t really hip to their music. Dead Kennedys, for its part, has maintained a touring schedule which only includes setlists of old songs. Other than changing the lyrics of “MTV, get off the air!” to “MP3, get off the web,” DK hasn’t changed much. Having seen some of these reunited bands, know ahead of time that a cover band is all you’re going to get here—which is actually pretty fine. If you weren’t old enough to see Jello Biafra wail through “Holiday in Cambodia,” seeing new singer Ron “Skip” Greer do it while trying to sound like Biafra isn’t exactly the same. But it’s also not that different. // RANDY LOBASSO

Kindred the Family Soul’s Fatin Dantzler is as fearless as a modern-day daddy—of six—can be. BY CHRIS WILDER / PHOTOS BY J.R. BLACKWELL /

“G

et in the car. We’re just gonna drive straight through!” It’s nearly noon on a Tuesday, and there’s no school, so Fatin Dantzler is taking his son, Aquil, and his 14-year-old nephew, Riyadh, to King’s Dominion in Virginia. It’s Aquil’s 15th birthday, and at 15, who wouldn’t want to go to a 400-acre park with 14 roller coasters and more than 50 other rides? Then there’s the water park with the giant wave pools ... It’s about to be on. “So, what—it’s a four-hour drive?” says the determined Dantzler. “We’ll get there and still have a few hours of daylight. We’re gonna have some fun!” Riding south on I-95, everybody’s loud and making jokes in between that all-important smartphone business that teenagers must handle as soon as something pops up on their screens. Then, just about four hours into the ride, BOOM! A loud noise, then the car starts shaking and pulling to the left. Fatin calmly engages in a fierce battle with the steering wheel to guide the car over to the right shoulder at 75mph. Once on the side of the road, they could see that the front left tire had blown out and, at that speed, shredded apart, leaving them riding on the rim. Without hesitation, the perpetually jovial Fatin gets the jack and spare out of the trunk, and commences to change the tire, a little too close to the high-speed traffic for comfort. It only takes a few minutes, and they’re back on their way. “Nothing’s gonna stop us,” he tells Aquil. “It’s your birthday, and we’re gonna have fun.” Ten minutes later, they arrive at their amusement-park destination, only to be greeted by a sign across the entirety of the entrance: Park Closed. At this point, a great time is still on the agenda, but now, they need a new tire ‘cause a car can only travel so far on a donut. Having stopped earlier on the highway then for something to eat after rolling up to an empty King’s Dominion, it’s now after 7pm, so finding a tire shop still open at this hour has become an issue—not to mention the fact that they’re four hours away from Philly. In a parking lot and talking fast on his cell phone, Fatin calls one place, then another. He moves around at a mile a minute and often sounds excited when he talks, even when he’s not. At about six feet tall and pretty solid, like a former football player, he’s a big bundle of good nature, approachability and confi-

dence, always entering a room with a smile and a joke—usually a loud one. Even now, in seeming-crisis mode, he’s as cool as a cucumber. Finally, Fatin reaches a Pep Boys staffer at a shop about 35 minutes away, who tells him to come on down. He immediately rounds up the boys, who’d wandered off to the other side of the lot, gets in the car and takes off. But once he arrives, the Pep Boys manager decides it was too late to replace the spare, instead sending the three of them to another place 30 minutes away from there. When his wife, Aja, suggested on the phone that they just get a hotel room and deal with

the tire trauma in the morning when more places would be open, Fatin wasn’t having any parts of it. “We’ve got to deal with this now so we can have the whole day tomorrow to have fun,” he said, insistent that his first-born son’s birthday be special. The Dantzlers, married almost 16 years and collectively known as the R&B/soul duo Kindred the Family Soul, just dropped their fifth album, A Couple Friends, and together, these friends have no less than six children. In Virginia, Fatin was dealing with just one. “He could’ve checked into a hotel, not driven another hundred miles and dealt

with it in the morning,” Aja later tells PW of the guys’ trip. “But, in a situation like that, he would rather just ‘get ‘er done.’ And that quality is one of the things that, in our marriage, it took me a while to appreciate. I’m more of a go-with-the-flow type of person, and he’s like, ‘Why put off to tomorrow what we can do today?’ “But that quality is what has kept us relevant for five albums,” she says. “He doesn’t think about waiting on others; he doesn’t think about what’s gonna happen tomorrow or who can help. He thinks, ‘What do I have at my disposal right now that can help me make that happen right now?’ That used to drive me insane when we first got married, but at the same time, if he hadn’t been that person, I can think of a million things we wouldn’t have. We wouldn’t have this house we’re sitting in.” Fatin runs Kindred the Family Soul all day, every day as his primary job, but unlike many artists who spend weeks and months away from their children because of extensive touring or all-night recording sessions, he keeps close to home; in fact, it’s a priority. Unlike the successful punk-rock dads profiled in the poignant, highly entertaining 2011 documentary The Other F Word, Fatin doesn’t struggle to balance his work life vs. parenting responsibilities due to months on the road (or battles with the non-conformist ideals that framed their careers). For him, those priorities are intertwined in a way that helps him create a life for himself and his family that reflects what they truly value: Each other. And while he may not see his babies in the early-morning hours after long nights on the grind, he’s certainly around for them in the evenings and after school. Since he handles Kindred business from an office near their house, and the Dantzler children are involved in many of their events—like Sunday afternoon’s health and wellness-rooted Kindred the Family Games in West Philly—he’s among the sect of working-class dads who spend quality time with their kids like any “normal” father would. However normal you can be with six kids, that is. “It’s not that bad,” explains Fatin with a chuckle. “As a matter of fact, it’s not bad at all. It is what it is. You have to take care of your children. And we have a routine.” In the morning, Aja wakes and gets the kids up and ready. We already know Aquil. He’s 15

Proud Performing Papas Four musician dads’ favorite memories of when songcraft overlapped with fatherhood. Marc Brownstein, founder/bassist, The Disco Biscuits Father of Zach, 9; Aliyah, 7, and Shane, 4: “My son was walking around at one of my festivals with a iPad that had a DJ program on it. He ran into the booking agent at the buffet, and the guy offered for him to play a DJ set at the pool. Zach (now known as DJ MiniMan) had his first gig, and it was in Mexico, so he was instantly an international DJ!” Fatnice, MC extraordinaire Father of Kingston, 5: “If I had to narrow it down to one, it would be having my son record for my album. On It’s Nice To Meet You, my son is singing the Black National Anthem throughout the album. The process of teaching it to him, rehearsing it with him, then coaching him in the vocal booth was one of the most amazing experiences I’ve ever had.” Kevin Hanson, guitarist, The Fractals Father of Chloe, 6, and Phoebe, 4-1/2: “When my wife, Jen, was pregnant with our first daughter, Chloe, I used to put the curve of my guitar on her big belly and play “The Wind” by Cat Stevens. I brought my guitar to the hospital, and a few minutes after she was born, I played the song for her. Our newborn stopped crying and looked right at us with a look of recognition. That was pretty cool.” Matt Muir, drummer, US Rails Father of Jovie and Lucy, both 3-1/2: “I work on lots of albums and studio projects for different artists. In most cases, I will come home with CDs of songs that have been finished or are in some state of unfinished to gauge where the sounds fit into a genre or how they hold up against other recordings. When I do bring CDs home, I will try to put them on for my wife and kids to hear them as well—partly because I’m proud of my work and also to get an honest third-party opinion. These songs have been named “daddy music” by the twins. They always shut their eyes and dance around like ballerinas. It’s so damn cute, you have no idea. The fact that something that I created is now inspiring my kids to dance and have fun is so mind-blowing to me. n

rection when it comes to eventually dealing with the opposite sex. “I really try to teach them to be mindful of men,” he says. “I want them to be careful of the men that they choose, always be respectful and always be ladies.” It’s one thing for a mother to sit and talk with her daughter about this, but remember: Fatin wants to teach his children by example. “I hope that what [my girls] see in me, by being a man who loves their mother, will be an example that will make them choose wisely,” he continues, “but I realize there’s trial and error for everyone, so the best thing I can do is be that example of a good man who loves their mother and loves them. Hopefully that will show them that love was already in their lives so they’re deserving of love and will seek out the right man when looking for mates. God willing.” Back at the Dantzler house, their afternoon-evening routine is basically picking up all of the kids from school, then overseeing homework, dinner and bed. That’s when Fatin’s real work begins. To complete this latest Kindred the Family Soul LP, he and Aja only toiled at night, after their children were asleep—the first time they recorded an album with no children in the studio. Aja’s mother would stay at the house while she and Fatin were recording. Once they had everything arranged and started working on A Couple Friends, after about two months, they suddenly took a break from it. “We felt like we were working too fast and maybe were a little unfocused, so we took a break for about a year,” Fatin explains. “We worked on other things. Performing and other little projects took up our time, but when we got back in the studio, everything happened. Creativity just started pouring out.” A Couple Friends, released yesterday on New Jersey-based indie Shanachie Records, is a smooth, soulful testimonial to a couple’s commitment to each other. On “Get It, Got It,” one of its faster-paced songs, Aja’s grownwoman soul-singer voice flows over a little piano riff while the song bounces along a subtle bass line. Fatin, who sings from down deep like an old-school mack but can also take it up a register or two, comes in later: “I’m just speaking the truth ‘cause our love is the truth ... We got our own rhythm, we groove. All my life I’ll spend with you. Every day feels brand new.” The album’s title track sounds like the two of them making magic over a live piano—separate, equal and in love a long time. For this LP, they called in familiar musicianproducers like acclaimed Philly stalwarts Steve McKie (Jill Scott, Bilal, Jazmine Sullivan) and James Poyser (Erykah Badu, Mariah Carey), which kept the Kindred sound consistent with their earlier work. Poyser produced the song “Call Me Crazy,” along with Fatin and Aja, but his work with Fatin dates as far back as his Overbrook days. “He was a great entertainer even back then,” he says of Fatin. “He was placing for talent shows while

he was still in high school.” Poyser can be seen every night on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon playing in The Roots, and he credits his old friend for the connection. “He may have been fresh out of high school and was working as a producer with Jazzy Jeff’s A Touch of Jazz. He was working on the Jazzyfatnastees album with The Roots and connected me to them. And I’ve been working with them ever since.” When what little down-time he has comes around, Fatin chooses to spend it playing with his kids, and thankfully, Clark Park is a hop, skip and jump from the Dantzler house. On a bright, warm day last month, Fatin was there with his youngest four. As he pushed Ain on the swing, he noticed the other two Black fathers cavorting with their kids as well. “That doesn’t seem out of place at all,” he shrugged. “There are always Black men out here with their children, despite the negative stereotypes put on them ... us.” As Nina keeps an eye on Deen, Aquil has now shown up in the park, and he’s only there to spend time with his dad, with whom he’s obviously skin-tight. At 15, he has more interest in riding rollercoasters and tweeting on his phone than climbing monkey bars or sliding down the slide. But this is a young man who’s always ready for the gems his father may drop on him. Remember them riding around on that donut down in Virginia? While they were running around trying to get it replaced, Aquil saw how his father was going all out to get it fixed, well aware that he was doing it for him. “My father is my mentor,” he told PW that fateful day as Fatin was on the phone talking loudly with Pep Boys. “He always knows the right thing to do, and he always tries to include me. I really look up to him. I want to be like him.” Back at Clark Park, the proud papa looks up and smiles as his son approaches. Any casual observer can see that this man-child has been raised well. He is polite, respectful and smart, respects his folks and others and is seemingly being taught how to do well in his rapidly-approaching adult life. For any active, well-meaning parent, this isn’t an easy road to navigate. For fathers, it’s an especially crucial task, fortified by their knowledge that the sons they raise will one day follow in their footsteps. Maybe even fill them. “Aquil looks at me as a role model and someone to emulate, and I think I present a good example for him by being there,” says Fatin. “I don’t present myself as the perfect person, but he knows that I provide for the family. I’m the man of the house, and he knows that one day that will be his role. So, I want him to see in me how to do that just, like my father did for me.” n

the spice of chili paste alongside the almost briny cotija cheese, as well as aioli, green onions, cilantro and a zip of lime juice. Scooped up with fried corn chips, it’s addictive. (And washed down with a Longtrail Blackberry Wheat Shandy, it’s a stand-in for the entire summer season in one bite). French fries are perfectly crisp and well-paired with a exuberantly garlicky aioli. Compressed watermelon, half a step too sweet from ginger simple syrup and a finish of lime honey, is crowned by mint and a scattering of Maldon salt, which does work to bring it back down to earth. The only significant issue came with dessert, a strawberry rhubarb pie that had fallen victim to the recent hot weather and the humidity in the kitchen. (They have since switched to a more refrigerator-friendly graham cracker crust from the traditional pie crust in order to avoid the issue in the future.) And while I wish someone had spotted the issue before the suspect slice had left the kitchen, it was handled swiftly and with real professionalism: Our excellent waitress whisked it away, and when the check came, management tried to comp our entire meal. I insisted on paying (I cannot accept comped meals no matter what sort of snafu occurs when visiting for a review), but the way it was handled— quickly, quietly and without question—speaks volumes about the high quality of the team at Morgan’s Pier. Of course, when you’re handling over a thousand covers on a busy day, everything must be done with alacrity and professionalism. They did insist on buying us our drinks, and it was clear that pushing too hard against that would have been rude on our part. Not that we did all that much damage in that department… but we could have. An extensive and smart selection of beers—from both draft and can—as well as season-appropriate cocktails and a small wine list well-chosen for the context, are tempting no matter what time of day you visit. Just like so much else here. And sipping on your drink, munching on your casual yet thoughtful meal, watching the shifting shafts of sunlight illuminating the passing boats and New Jersey off in the distance—it’s all a decidedly pleasant way to spend a few summertime hours. I can’t wait to return. 

p h i l a d e l p h i a w e e k l y. c o m I

levated picnic food, no matter how you look at it, is a tough trick to pull off. At every turn, it seems, the temptations would be significant for the chef to peddle in cliche, to pander down to his guests’ most basic expectations, and offer little more than spiffed-up versions of exactly the sort of thing any one of us could whip up at a family cook-out. But amazingly, the team at Morgan’s Pier have yet again managed to avoid all the pitfalls that line their path and offer us all one of the more pleasant warm-weather dining experiences around. This year, under the watchful eyes of Executive Chef David Gilberg and his wife, Sous Chef Carla Gonçalves, both formerly of the beloved and much-missed Koo Zee Doo, the menu skews toward the classic, albeit with a couple of touches that nod subtly toward the Portuguese magic he and his wife whipped up in Northern Liberties for so many years. Still, even though this is a very different cuisine than they crafted at Koo Zee Doo, their eye for detail and palate for memorable flavors remain very much intact. Piri piri chicken, for example, brings together the great traditions of grilled American chicken with just enough of a swirling heat from their homemade hot sauce to find a happy middle ground between the two. Gilberg also has the good sense to offer up only the dark meat: It’s far better suited to the heat of the grill and to eating with your hands, and within its crisp skin the meat remained moist and tender. (This should be a lesson to all home cooks who insist on destroying skinless-and-boneless chicken breasts on their grill, a practice that usually results in flesh closer to shoe leather than anything that was once a livingand-clucking bird.) Ribs are a well-portioned serving of half a dozen St. Louis-cut beauties, first roasted under pressure and then finished on the grill and brushed with the same baste as the piri piri chicken. Dipped into one of the two homemade sauces (BBQ or hot), they’re excellent. Their lobster roll, the most expensive dish on the menu at $18, is slicked with lemon butter yet never overwhelmed by it: That glistening addition clearly is employed in the service of framing the inherent sweetness of the meat itself, not supplanting its claim to primacy. And anyway, those generous knobs of meat demand attention in their own right. I just wish that a larger bun had been used: It looks great overflowing with meat, generous to be sure, tucked into the flank of a New England-style roll, but a better bread-to-lobster ratio would allow to it be shared that much more easily among everyone at the table. And yes, everyone will want a bite or three. Morgan’s Pier also offers serious options for vegetarians and vegans.

Three the hot way: Daniel Reizes, Drew Kramer and Chris Schor from Les Professionnels.

Ride the Rhythm Les Professionnels’ own Drew Kramer takes us to school on EDM. By Bill Chenevert // bchenevert@philadelphiaweekly.com

riday night was not the euphoric dance-music moment I’d been hoping for. Disclosure meant way too much to me to enjoy a sold-out Union Transfer show that, as far as I’m concerned, veered way too far into the pop culture-suck of throbbing EDM beat drops and dramatic build-ups conjured explicitly for bros (and their girlbros) to pump their arms in the air. I just loved last year’s Settle so much, but what I should’ve anticipated is that literally zero of the album’s impressive list of guests would be in-house, and we were supposed to be pleased with a light show-crafted face that mouthed the words to songs made remarkable by greats like Jessie Ware and Sam Smith. I arrived just in time and, despite a surprise photo pass, was daunted by the notion of pushing through a sea of dudes that averaged 6’1” and 190 pounds. And it was very white—decidedly whitewashed and, to be brutally honest, not very queer-friendly. Meanwhile, people of color and women and LGBT folks have been drawing inspiration from Disclosure’s output for ages, but maybe the bros beat em’ to the (digital) box office. I try not to let these revelations ruin my experience, but the joys of attendance didn’t really hit me over the head—and they did—until the last third of the show, when they cranked out “White Noise,” “Help Me Lose My Mind” and “Latch.” It left me hungry for more authentic dance-music dancefloors where there’d be a little more color and character. So, I called Drew Kramer from Les Professionnels to ask him to both help me understand Disclosure’s evolution into mass-consumed EDM territory and guide me towards the lesser-known opportunities that’ll present themselves over the next few weeks. “These guys [Guy and Howard Lawrence] kind of went right down the middle and made something with a classic sound,” Kramer explained from Margate. “They have talented vocalists; they have a lot of classic sides with synthesizers that people have been using since the ‘80s, like everyone from Talking Heads to Frankie Knuckles, even when alt music [see: the ‘90s] was popular.” Kramer made it clear that it pretty much all goes back to Daft Punk. “Basically in the ‘90s, when people were into Nirvana, that’s when Daft Punk started, and, as we know, 20 years later, it’s finally hit,” he explained. “That helped artists like Disclosure because people are getting into dance music now.” His Les Professionnels, which also includes Chris Schor and Daniel Reizes on its roster, specializes in house, disco and electronic dance music. But their residency at The Trestle betrays that “EDM” catch

phrase. Take, for instance, their upcoming set this Sat., June 14, where they’ll focus purely on early, classic disco. “I can’t play a record that’s after 1984,” laughs Kramer. “The owners will find out if I play something off of Random Access Memories.” The party’s called “Summer of Summer.” And we’ll be there. They’ll be at Firefly on June 19; they’re opening for the Knocks on Thursday at Underground Arts, and Kramer hinted at a big announcement that’ll blow people’s socks off later this summer. Someone big. Kramer & Co. have big music dealings happening, too, including signing with Nurvous Records (with the single “Pure Love”) and working on a new record. They’re eager to make a name for themselves in their city, where an already-rich dance-music culture’s been one of our prides and joys since the days of Gamble and Huff ’s supreme reign. “What we’re looking to do with Les Professionnels is spread love and positivity with dance music. In layman’s terms, people associate EDM with dance music, but it’s really a diverse entity. And we’re really excited to be a part of that as Philadelphians.” In the meantime, here’s a slew of upcoming live shows to keep tabs on: Last week, I got turned on to Poolside, whose delightfully L.A. countenance is deliciously summery and at the front of their sound on the outstanding “Pacific Standard Time.” They’re at the Dolphin June 20. Then there’s Will Holland, a.k.a. Quantic, whose tropical residency in Colombia has inspired outstanding Latin-tinged funk and soul. He’ll pack Union Transfer on the 12th. Morgan’s Pier will be moving the masses on the 19th and 20th, too, with the legendary local King Britt and Tiga appearing as part of Dave P.’s Making Time, respectively. Of course, we already have two dance-music masterpieces to enjoy in our backyards all summer in the form of Hercules & Love Affair’s “Feast of the Broken Heart.” You’re only in luck of catching an Andy Butler DJ set if you find yourself in Dallas, St. Louis, Mexico, Europe or Canada this summer. The Röyksopp and Robyn Do It Again tour will be slightly more accessible, with stops nearby in New York (Aug. 20) and Boston (Aug. 22), but we won’t hold it against them for ignoring us. Of course, you can visit Kramer and his buds for low-key whiskey and beers over their inspired disco-reverance every Saturday night at the Trestle while you test the waters with visitors like Quantic and Poolside. Just get out there. And dance.  Bill Chenevert is PW’s senior music writer. Follow him on Twitter @billchenevert.

One With the Crowd

In the city’s first Dyke March since marriage equality became real, Timaree gets in touch with a new kind of energy.

“T

wo, four, six, eight — how do you know you’re daughter’s straight?” Immediately after launching from Kahn Park, we started with the chants. It’s part of my job, you see, as a Radical Cheerleader brandishing a plastic megaphone. We whip out this particular cheer when Kate, one of the organizers of the annual Dyke March in Center City, spots a handful of middle school-age kids and their parents. It’s an in-your-face attempt to address people’s unthinking presumption of heterosexuality. Why should these nice Philly families give a damn about our shouting, after all, unless we make it personal?

When I was much younger, I was good friends with a very homophobic girl named Rachel. The kind of homophobic that, apropos of nothing, would say that all the gays should be put on an island and the island should be bombed.

SCREEN REVIEW

The Signal If anyone had questions about whether director (and former cinematographer) William Eubank knows how to put a shot together, The Signal will answer them. The opening minutes of winsome undergrads on a cross-country road trip gains impressive grandeur under the Southwestern sky, and every flashback shot bursts with saturated forest greens. The moody visuals even lend fresh tension to the obligatory hacker thrills, flashlit horror-movie investigations and sterile hospitals in which, unfortunately, the plot begins. The script (by Eubank, Carlyle Eubank and David Frigerio) doesn’t lack enthusiasm and has some success while our MIT hero pits his smarts against the elusive agency holding him captive. Lowtech espionage tension gets help from a focused performance by Brenton Thwaites as Nick, the intense Beau Knapp as Jonah, and a quietly unsettling turn by Lawrence Fishburne as the agent testing Nick. We’ll pretend Olivia Cooke as Nick’s girlfriend Hayley is magnificent commentary on the trope of the underwritten-girlfriend who has to be—often literally—dragged through the story by our hero, because the alternative would be a character of staggering flimsiness even for a movie rife with archetypes. From there, the plot only thickens. There are still nicely-eerie vignettes even once the gears start grinding, but what begins as a compelling round of mind games ends up underscoring that sometimes the thrill of the journey usurps the joy at one’s arrival. However, this is a movie in which spoilers would abound with any further explanation, so just know that The Signal begins with gorgeously-framed vistas and climbs slowly to nonsensical heights. But it coasts deservedly on style and atmosphere for its first half, and perhaps the stack of big reveals in the last act is just a layer cake of homage in a thriller that wants to be all twists to all people. (Genevieve Valentine) REVIEW

Lucky Them Lucky Them lives in the sidelong, which is both a feature and a bug. It has only a sidelong interest in heroine Ellie Klug’s career in music journalism, which makes for the usual suspended disbelief about magazine logistics, as her editor recruits her for a Hail-Mary story. It also has only a sidelong interest in that article, which is ostensibly an investigation into the disappearance of Matthew Smith, the presumed-dead megastar musician who was the love of young Ellie’s life. Instead, director Megan Griffiths meanders through a handful of unhurried plot eddies. But that just gives us more time with characters who are more winning than, on paper, they have any right to be. Though “completely and utterly totaled” isn’t uttered about Ellie, it might as well be. She’s in a state of suspended adolescence, wandering the dreamily-shot streets of Seattle looking for musicians before they get cool and having serial one-night stands. It might seem threadbare except for Toni Collette, who gives Ellie enough dry self-awareness that she never comes across as a victim of circumstance; she’s a mess on her own terms. Thomas Haden Church brings deeply funny self-seriousness to Charlie, an oddball quasi-ex of Ellie’s who insists on documenting her journey in exchange for underwriting it. Oliver Platt and Off-Broadway crossover Nina Arianda lend welcome edge to Ellie’s editor and no-nonsense best friend, respectively, but the movie’s at its best when Collette and Church are playing off their perfectly off-center chemistry, moving effortlessly from snarky banter into moments of touching reflection, as Ellie begins to face her lengthy past with Smith, and Charlie takes tentative steps toward happiness. It’s a sidelong coming-of-age that feels as though it skims the bittersweetness of its ending, but Lucky Them cares more about the trip than the destination. (G.V.)

Visit Shell Beach: Dark City and the Alien Illusion Is death a fair price to pay for understanding the universe’s mysteries? The 1998 cult classic says yes. By Genevieve Valentine // feedback@philadelphiaweekly.com

ovies and TV teach us that the speculative sort loves nothing more than testing humanity with the most soul-searching illusions VFX can buy. Among its many other sci-fi signposts, this week’s The Signal asks what first contact would mean for unprepared humans (spoilers: not great, Bob). But it’s a storied question. Sure, there’s the occasional species that humanity means little to—the Xenomorphs of Alien facehug indiscriminately—or the self-aware computer that harbors no ill will and is only playing Global Thermonuclear War because you asked, or the rare extraterrestrial that couldn’t care less about bipeds and is just trying to place a call to some humpback whales, Enterprise be damned. But the majority of the time—from The Twilight Zone to The Matrix—if an outlying species is headed our way, they’ve come to mess with our heads. Dark City stylishly took that premise all the way to the end of the line. The 1998 cult hit (directed by Alex Proyas, who was riding a wave of goth indie cred after The Crow) was an homage to film noir, German Expressionism and identity horror, all wrapped in a mystery that posited the human condition as an inescapable existence manipulated by forces beyond your understanding or control, in an imprisoning landscape that’s always changing with people who are constantly remade as strangers. It’s a movie sleekly grim enough and a mystery uncanny enough to survive even a last-minute voiceover in which Keifer Sutherland is forced by New Line Cinema to inform you the Dark City is, in fact, an alien experiment designed to suss out the elusive quality that makes us human and to determine whether, when given a set of memories, one’s identity will shift to accommodate. John Murdoch (Rufus Sewell) throws a spanner in the works when he wakes and accidentally defies the murderous role he’s been given. His struggle to find the elusive Shell Beach leads him to realize the city’s a prison and becomes the search in which he flexes his growing power to manipulate his surroundings. Shell Beach is the source of all knowledge, the necessary destination and the manifestation of freedom—not just from the aliens, but from the illusion that plagues everyone else in town. Given that, the strangest and most terrifying thing about Dark City remains its last few minutes, as Proyas and composer Trevor Jones have to quite literally summon the sun in order to assure us that all will be well, and that John the beach-growing softie is somehow destined to be a more benevolent dictator than those who came before. The movie even rewards John with his wife, Emma—Jennifer Connelly, wearing the new identity of Anna—who doesn’t recognize him given her new identity, but who, the music assures us, will certainly come to love him post haste. Interestingly, this particular beat is also echoed in this month’s box office, as Edge of Tomorrow suggests a very similar dynamic between a man caught in illusion-shattering time loops and a woman who believes in him.

This won’t hurt a bit: Keifer Sutherland as Dr. Daniel P. Schreber in the 1998 sci-fi noir gem Dark City.

To view this as the beginning of another downward spiral—the powerful trying to impose will on a city’s worth of people in an attempt to wrench order over chaos—is an honest reading of a movie that embraces its nihilistic streak throughout. (After all, this film views suicide with great understanding; to know everything but be powerless, it suggests, offers little other way out.) But Dark City trades on the inherent otherness and power of knowledge. Even death is a small price to pay for understanding the world, however terrifying the truth might be. And it’s that knowledge that at last reveals John for what he truly becomes: an alien, a ghost empowered by the machine. However unwitting, he’s now the one passing the illusion to others. Dark City’s flickering optimism comes in suggesting that as he defied expectations once, so might he be a kinder proctor about his own tests, one Shell Beach at a time. 

PURPLEVANIA by Randy LoBasso rlobasso@philadelphiaweekly.com

How Paul Glover Will Spend His Summer Vacation The Green Party’s bike-happy candidate for governor is gearing up for a lot of extra crap the Democrats and Republicans don’t have to deal with.

aul Glover wants to warn us: “In 60 years, either cars will be gone or we will.” Those are tough words. The Germantown resident says he hasn’t driven an automobile since 1978—and, based on a lifetime of research, he’s pretty sure that if more people don’t follow his lead, we’re all doomed. And before you ask: No, he’s not interested in cleaner fuel, or hybrid technology, or electric cars. He believes human mobility will be the end of humanity, because as long as fuel exists, and is cheap, human beings will continue to sprawl—and devour the earth. “Even if you had a car which ran on parakeet farts and only needed one little parakeet fart a year, cars go everywhere,” he says. “There needs to be a deliberate restraint on human mobility. Otherwise, we entirely cover the planet with roads. Just roads everywhere.” But who cares what this guy thinks? You should. Glover, a former Temple professor and leader of numerous green job and food organizations around Philadelphia, is running for governor of Pennsylvania on the Green Party ticket. While you’re spending your days checking out street festivals and the zoo’s new black-footed-cat kittens, Glover is going to be canvassing the city and state on his bike, attempting to gather signatures for a spot on the ballot in November. It’s a ballot that’s exceedingly hard to get onto as an independent candidate—and made even harder, Glover feels, by the media and state organizational infrastructure that’s intentionally ignoring him. Since earning the Green Party’s nomination at a private convention in State College on March 1, Glover has been on a physical and digital marathon, attempting to get his name out in the public. So far, he feels, the effort has been pretty unsuccessful. When the Democratic candidates debated throughout the winter and spring ahead of the May primary, Glover was rarely invited to attend—and not for a lack of trying. First came the Pennsylvania Progressive Summit,

a gathering of progressive leaders from all over the state. Glover sent an email to the summit’s organizers on January 23 saying he was a progressive candidate for governor and wanted to debate; he never got a response. Then Philly Neighborhood Networks hosted a primary debate, and asked the Green Party if they wanted to sign on as cosponsors of said debate, though Glover was not invited to attend. “Paul Glover is not a candidate in the primary,” PNN’s executive director Gloria Gilman pointed out via email in March. And then, the one that probably stung the most, for a guy who’s gotten around on a bike since the ’70s: Glover wasn’t included in the Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia’s candidate questionnaire on their website. “We did not intentionally exclude Paul Glover,” says Nicholas Mirra, the Bicycle Coalition’s communications director. “We also did not send our questionnaire to Gov. Corbett. We only sent that survey to the candidates in the Democratic primary because that election was coming up. When the general election looms in October, we will be sending that survey or a similar one to the candidates for that election, and we will include Mr. Glover in that list.” This, of course, is one of the most fundamental obstacles that face a third-party candidate: If you are a liberal, you exist outside the long-entrenched channels built by Democrats to reach liberal voters. And if you are a conservative, you exist outside the longentrenched channels built by Republicans to reach conservative voters. If you voted on May 20, you did not have the opportunity to vote in any state primary for an independent party: Your options were Democrat and Republican. This is because political parties in Pennsylvania are not allowed to participate in primary elections unless their party makes up at least 15 percent of the total electorate. None but the big two do. Since independent parties are not involved in the statewide primary election,

How One Should Address a Dick I’d rather someone call me a faggot than tell me I shouldn’t have the right to marry.

“S

Consider this quaint bit of recent, cute legalese from Philadelphia Daily News columnist Christine Flowers: “It’s one thing to say we want to treat gays, lesbians and the rest with fairness and dignity and quite another to twist the Constitution around to give us cover for cultural sympathy… To argue that ‘sexual orientation’ is of constitutional importance such that it mandates carving out special preference and privilege is dishonest.” Oh—is that what’s dishonest? You can blather all you want about my rights and dignities, but if your underlying point is that they should be taken away, whatever you’re saying is just a mask you’re wearing to pretty up your bigotry. Not that it’s much of a mask. Flowers starts out her column with a quite deliberately taunting response to the news that marriage equality had arrived in Pennsylvania: “So it’s fairly certain that Adam and Steve and Madame and Eve can start wiggling to the electric boogaloo.” That statement is astoundingly more offensive than Jonah Hill saying, “Suck my dick, faggot” in a moment of frustration. Not only does it demonstrate a callous indifference to the experi-

I remember walking down Walnut Street when I was 18 years old, holding hands with a man I was dating. Some bros saw us. “It’s Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve,” they yelled. It was intimidating. That was deliberate. Now go back a few years and contrast that with every time I heard one seventh-grade classmate say, “Shut up, faggot.” Which is worse, really? The stupid little shits who were just repeating phrases they’d heard? Or the charming group of gentleman on the street who, recognizing I was gay, made sure to tell me I have no right to exist? Yeah, using a slur like “faggot” isn’t very nice. It deserves some knuckle-rapping; it warrants a mea culpa. But it doesn’t deserve our ire—or our focus. Nope: We should reserve that for those who would come after us with malice. 

uck my dick, you faggot.” Those five simple words have led actor Jonah Hill to a very complex, and necessary, public explanation and apology. See, while I might voice that sentence intimately toward the end of a good date, Hill uttered it in a pejorative, nasty, casual context. Basically, a paparazzo badgered Hill—whose ubiquity as a character actor is obvious to anyone under 40—as he walked down a public street last week. Then, Hill, apparently forgetting that he’s chosen to make his living as a public figure, regressed to middle school, called the intrusive photographer a faggot, and told him to suck his dick. TMZ, of course, immediately disseminated the video. Let’s break this down a bit, shall we? Hill wasn’t literally suggesting the photographer perform fellatio. If that had been what he meant, we’d all be calling him brave for coming out during Pride Month. Nope: Hill, who identifies as straight, was using a figurative turn of phrase that essentially means, “Go fuck yourself.” As such, he was insulting someone by implying that sucking a cock was a bad thing, rather than what millions of men do to one another to show love and affection. Promptly, those who make a living being outraged gleefully started taping a dunce cap together and demanded an apology from the actor for his blasphemy. After all, establishment types in the whiny left—not the entire left, the whiny left—have got to act like they’re doing something now and then. This, despite the fact that it wasn’t so long ago we read about Hill speaking up to protest anti-gay policies in Russia, telling the E! network, “I have tons of gay friends, gay family members.” Hill said that wondering why people are living openly as gay is “like saying, ‘Why do you think people should breathe?’” While the phrase “I have [insert minority status] friends!” is usually a lead-in for saying something stupid, Hill is obviously pro-equality. He’s not a bigot. He doesn’t appear even remotely homophobic if you look at his associations, career, public statements and overall public persona. And in the wake of his excited utterance, Hill has made the rounds to very publicly, and earnestly, apologize for offending a few people. In fact, he seems genuinely hurt himself for having acted in such a stupid way. Clearly, he understands his mistake, and he gets that the slur is hurtful particularly when used thoughtlessly and meaninglessly. The storm, then, has passed. Jonah Hill is allowed back in the kumbaya clubhouse. There’s a problem with this entire situation, though. While Hill feels the proper obligation to recognize and apologize for his mistake, there’s an entire swath of America right now that society has given a pass for saying something far more bigoted and odious than what Hill did. This crowd feels no obligation whatsoever to apologize for their hateful intentions. See, when you say gay people aren’t entitled to marry, you’re saying something much worse, much more dangerous, than when a Jonah Hill or even Alec Baldwin utters a stray, harmless “faggot.” Folks who say I shouldn’t share their civil rights are thinking very deliberately about their words. They aren’t just hurling an insult in an angry tirade—they’re bending over backwards to justify their juvenile queasiness with the idea of same-sex coupling.

june 11 - 18

Glover shows me his summer calendar. It includes festivals and meetings through June he’ll be attending to gather signatures and speak to potential voters—everything from a homeschooling meeting at Liberty Lands Park to a prison healthcare and re-entry summit on June 10, all of which he’ll be traveling to and from by bike. He hopes it won’t all be invisible to the vast majority of voters. “[The Greens] aren’t just an independent party, we’re distinct independent voices,” he says. “If we’re going to avoid riots and revolution, we need to have free and fair elections. That’s why we have elections; that’s why we have free speech—to prevent explosions.” Explosions? “That’s not a threat,” he says. “That’s history.” 

THE UNCOMFORTABLE WHOLE

p h i l a d e l p h i a w e e k l y. c o m I

the state does not officially consider them candidates until August—three months before the election, more than half a year after the Democrats and Republicans have begun campaigning. So any organization or media outlet that chooses not to recognize the Green Party’s chosen candidate before August—well, they’re just following the state’s way of doing electoral business. Both the Green and Libertarian parties in Pennsylvania have to collect about 17,000 signatures for the August 1 petition deadline this year, instead of the 2,000-signature threshold required of Democrat and Republican candidates. Jay Sweeney, the Green Party of Pennsylvania’s chairman, says Green efforts thus far have gathered about 4,000 signatures statewide. Glover says he’s collected about 500 of them himself. There’s an endlessly self-perpetuating cycle at work here. Because the state has chosen to make the rules harder for independent party candidates, media and issue-based organizations are less likely to pay attention. Without that attention, it’s harder for Glover to fundraise. Without fundraising, Greens can’t pay petitioners to help gather signatures. And without signatures, they won’t qualify for the ballot. There’s an additional hoop to jump through: Rather than preparing new 2014 ballot petitions for the independent parties, the state is simply reusing the 2012 petitions. Since there was a presidential election in 2012, that means the petitions include an unnecessary space for presidential electors—which makes the petition too big to fit on regular letter-sized paper, which means the average citizen can’t easily print copies out at home, which means the Green Party has to spend money and time mailing hard copies to volunteers instead of sending them by email. Glover says he’s complained to the state Board of Elections but they haven’t responded. “It’s petty and major at the same time,” he says. “You call them up, and they say, ‘I don’t know what that is.’ We sent them an email, and they don’t reply. It makes it really difficult for us and other people who want to run as Greens.” The Board of Elections did not respond to PW’s requests for comment.

Your

Life Your

City Your

I am currently a senior in high school, but come Saturday, I will be a high-school grad! (Fuck yeah!) The only thing I’m worried about besides my hopes and dreams, and making it in the real world? My sex life. I’m a virgin. When I go online, I see all my friends and peers having these crazy, awesome, smoking-hot sex lives. I am obsessed with this guy in my class. Like all teenage-girl crushes, I can’t get him out of my head. I want to know if it would be weird for me to ask him to hook up at a post-graduation party? I don’t care if my first time is with someone “special;” I just feel like if I don’t say something to him now, I’ll never get a chance to have sex at all, with anyone, ever. I feel like I know what you’re going to say, Dan, but take it easy on me! Does It Get Sexier? First, DIGS, some research shows a link between time spent on social media and depression. The issue seems to be people comparing what they know of their own lives—which are complicated, messy and sometimes painful—with the idealized portrait others create of their own lives on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc. Remember: While your friends may appear to have crazy, awesome, fun-filled lives on Facebook, their actual lived reality likely includes as many sads and fails as your life does. Something else to bear in mind: Teenagers are waiting longer to have sex, according to the Guttmacher Institute, and nearly 40 percent of 18-yearolds of both sexes are not yet sexually active. So you are not a freak, DIGS. All of your friends and peers may tell you they’re sexually active—or their Facebook and Instagram posts may imply that they’re sexually active—but the data tells us (and I’m telling you) that some of your friends are liars. Finally, DIGS, this boy is not the last boy on earth. You will have other chances to have sex, with other people, lots. But I think you should make a pass at this boy—if not for the sexual experience, then for the experience of making the pass itself. Make it an honest, straightforward and explicit pass. (“I’ve had such a crush on you, and this is crazy, but fuck me maybe?”) If he’s interested, tell him you’re a virgin, tell him condoms are required, and tell him you’d rather do it sober or soberish. If he’s not interested, well, that’ll suck. You’ll have to wait a bit longer for your first sexual experience, DIGS, but you’ll have an opportunity to practice handling rejection with grace (“Well, I still think you’re a great guy, and I hope things won’t be awkward between us”) and you’ll see that rejection isn’t the end of the world— or the end of boys, either. Good luck! I was combing through some old columns/podcasts and came upon a few instances where you counseled women on selling their used underwear online. Is this particular kink strictly limited to straight guys looking for ladies’ panties? Or is there a market for used men’s underwear? Because I’m one guy who would happily earn a few extra bucks selling my old boxer briefs. Undie Noob Desiring Interesting Extra Salary Duncan Black—the gay porn star and male escort (duncanblackxxx.com), not the liberal blogger (eschatonblog.com)—does a brisk business selling his used jocks and briefs online. No offense to anyone, but I don’t think Blog Duncan could move as many units of dirty underpants as Porn Duncan. It’s like this: The more people who want into your pants, and the more sexualized your public image,

the more people will pay to get their hands on the consolation prize that is a pair of dirty underpants. So unless you’re conventionally hot and willing to put yourself out there (show your handsome face and hot body online), UNDIES, you aren’t going to move many units, either. (I follow both Duncan Blacks on Twitter, and so should you: @iamduncanblack for porn, @atrios for politics.) I love my girlfriend, but she might be a lesbian. I base that opinion on the fact that she’s dated women in the past, she hits on women when she’s drunk, and she has made out with at least two of her female friends in the last year. She says this is normal for girls. Most troubling is that our sex life has dried up. Despite having many honest conversations, she just won’t/ can’t be sexual with me. Although it’s hard to see her hit on women/make out with her girlfriends when we aren’t being sexual, I can live with it because I love her more than I can say. My questions: (1) Is it unfair of me to ask her to define her sexuality? (2) Am I overthinking this? (3) Are the behaviors I’ve described normal? Helping Evaluate Lesbian Preference 1. You know what’s unfair? Hitting on other people—men, women, whatever—in front of the boyfriend/girlfriend/whateverfriend you can’t bring yourself to fuck. Your girlfriend is being unfair to you, HELP, and you have to stop making rationalizations for her shitty, inconsiderate and cruel behavior. Your girlfriend could be a lesbian, she could be bi or she could be the kind of straight woman who has relationships with other women, hits on other women when she’s drunk and makes out with other women biannually. That kind of straight woman is called a “closeted lesbian”—but getting her to precisely define her sexuality isn’t going to change this simple fact: She has no interest in fucking you. Not into men, not into you—what difference does it make? That rumbling sound you heard a moment ago, HELP, was millions of Savage Love readers mumbling “DTMFA” under their breath as they read your letter. Take their advice. 2. Yes, HELP, you are overthinking this. You’ve spent way too much time thinking about how you could make this relationship work—and what you might be doing wrong—when what you should be thinking about is how to extricate yourself from this doomed relationship. 3. Are we talking about her behavior or yours? If we’re talking about her behavior, HELP, it is normal—for scared and closeted lesbians with security-blanket boyfriends they can’t let go of. If we’re talking about your behavior, it isn’t normal— because very few people would swallow the shit she’s been feeding you. DTMFA. My fiancé came home, and his beard smelled like pussy—the sweet, healthy kind. He denied having his face in someone else’s business. Is there anything else it could have been? Help! Sick In Minneapolis I have no idea what pussy smells like, SIM, as I’ve never had my face in that business. So I can’t really tell you what else it could’ve been—Clamato? Caramel corn? Crème brûlée?—because I have no frame of reference. But I’m running your letter in the hopes that otherwise-cute hipster boys will be inspired to shave off their ugly fucking beards to escape justified or unjustified accusations of infidelity. 

Longtime Resident Still in Love with Residences at Dockside

Philadelphia, PA, May 2014: Irv Starkman first encountered The Residences at Dockside when the building was being built, back in the early 2000s. “I was living in Cherry Hill and driving into Philly every day for work,” Starkman recalled. “I had been thinking about moving into the city and had looked at some high-rises, but Dockside was intriguing so I decided to take a look. As soon as I saw it, I didn’t have to look any further. I thought, ‘There’s something about this building that I just love.’ I guess you could say that was the beginning of my affair with the building!” The Residences at Dockside has a history of creating that “love-at-first-sight” impression on people. Quietly set on the edge of the Delaware River, the 16-story luxury waterfront condominium has earned a reputation as one of Philadelphia’s most unique residential experiences. Remarkably close to Center City, yet nicely removed from all the “buzz” of the city, The Residences at Dockside offers luxury homes on the water, with a low-maintenance lifestyle and a variety of appealing on-site amenities. Irv Starkman, at home in his two-bedroom Starkman moved into the building in August 2003 and hasn’t had a regret since. “I looked luxury condo on the Delaware waterfront at The Residences at Dockside at maybe ten or twelve other places and nothing compared to what I saw at Dockside,” he continued. “I loved that it was on the water – it feels like you’re living at a resort.” The spacious one, two, and three-bedroom condominium homes feature expansive private terraces, designer kitchens with high-end appliances and granite countertops, in-unit washers and dryers, hardwood floors and generous storage space. The condominiums can also be fully customized to meet buyers’ needs. Residents enjoy gated access, state-of-theart security, a 24-hour concierge, and ample indoor parking, including reserved spaces and free visitor parking. Prices start from the upper-$200,000s. Homeowners also enjoy spectacular views. “One of my friends came over one night and said, ‘You have a million-dollar view.’,” Starkman shared. “And it really is fabulous. I face the Ben Franklin Bridge, Center City, the Chart House, Penn’s Landing and the Battleship New Jersey. It’s truly incredible.” Homeowners also enjoy unparalleled amenities, including a heated indoor pool, a fitness center with cardio and resistance equipment, a hot tub, and a spacious Club Room for entertaining, which features a full catering kitchen, pool table, grand piano, large-screen TV and adjacent 4,100-square-foot terrace overlooking the river. Located in the center of the thriving Delaware River waterfront, Dockside is a short walk away from Penn’s Landing and close to lots of high-end shopping, restaurants and nightlife. In addition, residents can take a short walk over the South Street Bridge to more great shopping and dining in the city, or take advantage of the free shuttle bus that runs daily from their building to Center City. “Living at Dockside, I’m still in the city, even though it feels like I’m out of the city, being here on the water,” Starkman reflected. “I just love it here.” Visit The Residences at Dockside, located at 717 South Columbus Boulevard. The sales office and model homes are open Monday through Saturday from 10:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m.; and Sundays from 12:00 Noon–5:00 p.m. Phone: 215-925-3000; website: www.DocksideCondominiums.com.
