Coltrane Crumbles Is the state of this house any way to treat a jazz legend?

BY BRUCE KLAUBER

TIMAREE SCHMIDT

egardless of the result on Nov. 8, Americans can agree: We can’t take another one of

these.

To prevent bloody civil war—or at least very annoying Facebook arguments—we must change how we do elections. Whether you feel strongly that your candidate is the best person to be president or you simply vote to prevent the catastrophic victory of the wrong millionaire, there is something deeply awed with a system that now requires we decide between the two least liked candidates in the history of favorability polling.

Many things led us to this point and it will require great upheaval to get us out.

One solution? Get rid of First Past the Post.

Wait, what?

First Past the Post (FPP) is an election model where each voter selects exactly one candidate and the winner is the candidate who gets more votes than any other. It’s pretty straight forward: everybody votes, then we perform some addition, compare numbers and, voila!, democracy.

n 1999, the Strawberry Mansion row home of jazz legend John Coltrane was declared a National Historic Landmark, which ultimately commemorated where one of the most important jazz musicians in history lived and worked from 1952-58.

In 2012, efforts to restore the property with hopes of using it as a museum or center for jazz studies were in high gear. The Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance, the Philadelphia Clef Club of the Performing Arts and lawyer Faye Anderson of “All That Philly Jazz� were committed to ensuring Coltrane’s home would become more than the lonely blue sign out front that denotes an homage to history.

Uncomfortable Stupid %&!$ Moments Stolen in Philly Philly Likeâ&#x20AC;Ś Last monthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brazen theft of a railing at the Union League surely earns a spot in the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Stupid Things to Steal Hall of Fameâ&#x20AC;?, alongside: Welcome mats. Stolen 2016, residents in the Fishtown and East Kensington part of the city routinely call 911 to say their welcome mats are being taken right off their front steps.

A dirty pelican statue. Stolen 2015, from the El Bar in Fishtown. Recovered when the thiefâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s neighbor dimed him out.

A child gazing at Jesus statue. Stolen 2016, from Our Mother Of Divine Grace Church in Port Richmond. Recovered from an abandoned grocery cart.

Philly Beer Week Hammer of Glory. Stolen 2013, during a beer festival. Returned to a bartender.

A bronze of two wrestlers. Stolen 1991, from a pedestal in front of Memorial Hall. Discovered in a warehouse next to a sauerkraut factory.

The hand of one of those bronze wrestlers. Sawed off the statue and stolen 1991 (after the statue had been retrieved from the warehouse), from a Fairmount Park automotive yard.

Never recovered.

0 and 1 house numbers. Stolen 2016, from various homes in East Kensington by thieves dubbed the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Binary Bandits.â&#x20AC;? Case still unsolved.

A cue ball. Stolen 2004, from the Draught Horse Pub. Returned by thief, an alleged Temple alum, in 2016.

Twenty-five hundred manhole covers. Stolen 2008, during an outbreak of street thefts citywide.

Some recovered from scrap yards.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll just leave this right here...

Waiting to use the touchscreens at the Wawa on Broad and Walnut Streets during a weekday lunch rush. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s never a formal line and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard to tell whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ordering and whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s waiting for food with the pickup table located directly next to the row of screens being huddled over.

Runner-up moment: Having the Wawa clerk who prepared your meatball sandwich bellow the number on your ticket repeatedlyâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;while you wait to cash out in an equally annoying line that snakes around the store.

EX-RAYS FOR LADY GAGA Earlier this year, it was rumored that artist Lady Gaga considered laying down roots somewhere in Philly. We deďŹ nitely doubt that now, given Gagaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ex-ďŹ ance Taylor Kinney has settled down with 26-year-old South Philly native Alanna DiGiovanni.

First reported in â&#x20AC;&#x153;Page Sixâ&#x20AC;? of the New York Post, Kinney, 35, who hails from Lancaster, is pretty smitten with DiGiovanni, who works in the radiology department at Thomas Jefferson Hospital. The two were spotted recently at an auto race in Texas and DiGiovanni visited Kinney on the set of his NBC show, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Chicago Fire.â&#x20AC;?

eah, you live on the most beautiful block in Fairmount, a hop, skip and a jump from former Sen. Vincent Fumoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s storied mega mansion. And yeah, the Craigslist ad called the street your apartment is on â&#x20AC;&#x153;the most beautiful block in Philadelphia.â&#x20AC;?

Yet, each morning a dreaded blue-and-white envelope is tucked under your windshield wiper. Why? Cause thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no place to park your car in Fairmount.

Below are three reasons why it was easy to rack up $909 in tickets to the PPA living in Fairmount in 2016.

Made in America/July 4th. They close the streets to traffic. They make us park our cars in lots for the weekend. Police cordon off streets and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t allow residents to cross unless they provide a driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s license or, in some cases, utility bills to prove residence. You have two choices, stay home alone all weekend and enjoy a private Earth, Wind and Fire concert in your backyard, or hunker down in the burbs with the closest living relative who always judges you for looking and dressing â&#x20AC;&#x153;like city folk.â&#x20AC;?

Philly Roots QRYHPEHU

Plenty of other notable names from Philadelphia have left behind homes that are still standing. Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a sampling.

Edgar Allen Poe, writer 532 N. 7th Street | Fairmount/Northern Liberties Home of the literary legend prior to his move to New York City in 1844, this residence is the most notable of the several homes the Gothic author, writer and poet lived in during his time in Philadelphia. The home is now a tourist attraction, upkept and administered by the National Park Service.

Noam Chomsky, linguist 6236 North Broad Street, 6525 9th Street, and 6421 North Fairhill | East Oak Lane The famous linguist and political commentator had his humble roots in this Philly neighborhood. He graduated from the University of Pennsylvania before taking a teaching position at MIT, leaving the area to revolutionize theories of grammar and politics.

Coltrane

>> From page 1: Interest piqued again as recently as September, when the city and the Philadelphia Jazz Project celebrated what would have been Coltraneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 90th birthday with nine days of performances, documentary ďŹ lm screeningsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and plenty of talk about much-needed renovations.

But sadly, the Coltrane House today is vacant, in disrepair and largely ignored. Any interest in giving the place where the genius of â&#x20AC;&#x2122;Trane blossomed its due has arrived only in the form of empty aspirations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got nothing,â&#x20AC;? said Homer Jackson, director of the Philadelphia Jazz Project. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really know if anything is happening.â&#x20AC;?

Other advocates for its preservation list a variety of challenges, but it comes down to a simple reality of real estate: Location, location, location.

Simply put, North 33rd Street is not exactly an ideal spot for a historic landmark. Located on a well-worn stretch of Brewerytown row homes and garages north of Center City, the house is largely ignored by commuters and others. A driving range across the street in Fairmount Park attracts far more visitors. Patrick Grossi, advocacy director of the Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance, acknowledged the problem. While the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s preservation community views the house as an asset, he said, its location is â&#x20AC;&#x153;a primary issueâ&#x20AC;? leaving it unworthy of major investment.

Meanwhile, the Alliance has its hands tied with the ongoing ďŹ ght for the historic preservation of Jewelers Row. Grossi also noted that the niece of one-time Coltrane House deed owner Leo Robert Gadson died recently and questions over ownership of the property have cropped up. According to Anderson, a check of property records showed that Gadson died without a will, tying up the home and its subsequent ownership in probate court.

There is a website called the John Coltrane House, that lists Lenora Early and Aminta Gadson as founders of the site and organization for restoring the home to his former luster. The siteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s homepage depicts a tiny image of Coltraneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s porch being restored courtesy of

grant dollars and features a PayPal link for donation efforts, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s uncertain if the site is constantly maintained as efforts to reach both Early and Gadson for comment were unsuccessful.

Coltraneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ownership of the house has quite the backstory as well.

Moving to Philadelphia in 1943, he purchased the property on 1511 N. 33rd Street nine years later by way of a G.I. loan. He lived there with his mother and ďŹ rst cousin, Mary Alexander, until he moved to New York City in 1958.

Coltraneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mother remained in the home until her death in 1977; Alexander, famously immortalized in Coltraneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s classic â&#x20AC;&#x153;Cousin Mary,â&#x20AC;? remained there until 2004. When Alexander sold it, she insisted that the property stand as a tribute to the saxophonist via the establishment of the John Coltrane Cultural Society.

A lesson could be learned from Coltraneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home in Dix Hill, Long Island, where the saxophonist lived with his wife, Alice, from 1964-67. In 2004, when local historian Steve Fulgoni discovered the home was scheduled for demolition, he spearheaded the designation of the house as a historic landmark.

Additionally, Fulgoni convinced developers to give the property to a coalition called â&#x20AC;&#x153;Friends of the Coltrane Home in Dix Hills,â&#x20AC;? a nonproďŹ t on which Fulgoni, Coltraneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s son Ravi Coltrane and other members of the Coltrane family sit as board members. Through the agreement, a sizable amount of restoration has already been completed as the group continues fundraising to restore the home to its original luster.

Here in Philadelphia, a ray of promise appears by way of the John Coltrane mural. Commissioned by cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mural Arts program in 2002, it was demolished 12 years later when developers purchased property adjacent to the muralâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s location at 32nd and Diamond streets. According to Amy Johnston, who works with the Mural Arts program, $20,000 has been raised to create a new Coltrane mural. Another $20,000, Johnston said, is still needed.

As for Coltraneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home, though, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to take more than a coat of paint to equal what this residence means to Phillyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s jazz community. History has shown that interest is there, but the crumbling brick of Coltraneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s North Philadelphia home still awaits actual for preservation.

W.C. Fields, entertainer 3911 N. Marshall Street | North Philadelphia William Claude Fields can credit his tumultuous upbringing on Philly streets for his early madcap career. The son of English immigrants, he was born in Delaware County but spent much of his wayward youth roaming city streets at the turn of the century. Until of course he made it big in show business and uttered his apocryphal (and fictitious) tombstone epitaph, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d rather be living in Philadelphia.â&#x20AC;?The house is still there despite how Fieldsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; state historical marker stands at 8th and Market.

Grace Kelly, actress 3901 Henry Avenue | East Falls Kelly was a resident of this Northwest area address until the age of 20, when she left to make it big on the silver screen in Hollywood. The legendary Oscar winner married Prince Rainier III of Monaco; the home was purchased earlier in October by her son, Prince Albert II. Kevin Bacon, actor 2117 Locust Street | Center City Before â&#x20AC;&#x153;Footloose,â&#x20AC;?â&#x20AC;&#x153;Animal House,â&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Apollo 13,â&#x20AC;? the actor and with his brother, musician Michael Bacon, were raised by their father, architect and city planner Edmund Bacon, who was responsible for the design of Penn Center, LOVE park, Market East and other projects. Edmund Baconâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s state historical marker resides in JFK Plaza.

David Lynch, filmmaker 2429 Aspen Street | Fairmount After graduating from the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, he worked various odd jobs to support a burgeoning family and fund his first cinematic attempt at a full-length motion picture, later to be released as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Eraserhead.â&#x20AC;? The house was bought privately in early 2015. Although the noted director has described his time in the city as difficult and impoverished, Lynch has also said that no environment has influenced him more as an artist. â&#x20AC;&#x201D;AUSTIN MACFADDEN

Voting

>> From page 1: The upside of FPP is itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very easy to understand and conduct. Some argue it also maintains consistency, largely because of its tendency to create an entrenched twoparty system.

Which obviously also poses as one of its biggest downsides.

FPP, by its nature, turns any third(or fourth- or ďŹ fth-) party candidate into little more than a potential spoilerâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a marginal candidate who is unlikely to win, just take away votes from the more established candidate.

Most notorious example? The 2000 presidential election. While liberal Floridians were busy deciding whether Ralph Nader or Al Gore was more to their liking, the state elected George W. Bush.

Given the option of selecting only one candidate, voters become strategic. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re incentivized to support the candidate they think is most likely to win, even if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not the one they genuinely prefer. Meanwhile, they have to consider how others will voteâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;or at least what they anticipate theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll do.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s essentially poker, but with polling data instead of a deck of cards.

When strategy is bad If elected ofďŹ cials are supposed to represent the will of the governed, strategic voting fails our representative democracy.

We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have time to engage in direct democracy and vote on every local ordinance, much less federal farming regulations and transportation funding bills. We have jobs, families, community responsibilities and NetďŹ&#x201A;ix. So we elect people who we think/hope are capable of doing the heavy lifting, who have our interests in mind.

So what are our options?

If America is a representative democracy, we can agree: UĂ&#x160; /Â&#x2026;iĂ&#x160; Â&#x201C;Â&#x153;Ă&#x192;Ă&#x152;Ă&#x160; ÂŤÂ&#x153;ÂŤĂ&#x2022;Â?>Ă&#x20AC;Ă&#x160; V>Â&#x2DC;`Â&#x2C6;`>Ă&#x152;iĂ&#x160; should win.

UĂ&#x160; Ă&#x160; V>Â&#x2DC;`Â&#x2C6;`>Ă&#x152;iĂ&#x160; Ă&#x153;Â&#x2026;Â&#x153;Ă&#x160; Ă&#x153;Â&#x153;Ă&#x2022;Â?`Ă&#x160; Ă&#x153;Â&#x2C6;Â&#x2DC;Ă&#x160; Â&#x2C6;Â&#x2DC;Ă&#x160; a head-to-head against every other candidate should win overall, and a candidate who would lose in a headto-head against every other candidate shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be able to win.

UĂ&#x160; >Â&#x2DC;`Â&#x2C6;`>Ă&#x152;iĂ&#x192;Ă&#x160; Ă&#x153;Â&#x2C6;Ă&#x152;Â&#x2026;Ă&#x160; Ă&#x192;Â&#x2C6;Â&#x201C;Â&#x2C6;Â?>Ă&#x20AC;Ă&#x160; Ă&#x203A;>Â?Ă&#x2022;iĂ&#x192;Ă&#x160; shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cancel each other out.

The solution? Instant runoff. Also known as â&#x20AC;&#x153;alternate voteâ&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;transferable vote,â&#x20AC;? it allows voters to rank multiple candidates.

For example, if you lean to to the left and prefer Green Party candidate Jill Stein, you give her a one (1) and, ÂŤiĂ&#x20AC;Â&#x2026;>ÂŤĂ&#x192;]Ă&#x160; Â&#x2C6;Â?Â?>Ă&#x20AC;Ă&#x17E;Ă&#x160; Â?Â&#x2C6;Â&#x2DC;Ă&#x152;Â&#x153;Â&#x2DC;Ă&#x160;>Ă&#x160;Ă&#x152;Ă&#x153;Â&#x153;Ă&#x160;­Ă&#x201C;Ž°Ă&#x160; vĂ&#x160; a candidate wins more than half the vote on the ďŹ rst round of counting, he or she wins. Otherwise, the last-place candidate is removed from consideration. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s say the loser is Stein. Your vote then switches to your second ÂŤĂ&#x20AC;iviĂ&#x20AC;iÂ&#x2DC;Vi]Ă&#x160; Â?Â&#x2C6;Â&#x2DC;Ă&#x152;Â&#x153;Â&#x2DC;°Ă&#x160; 7iĂ&#x160; VÂ&#x153;Ă&#x2022;Â&#x2DC;Ă&#x152;Ă&#x160; >}>Â&#x2C6;Â&#x2DC;°Ă&#x160; vĂ&#x160; Â?Â&#x2C6;Â&#x2DC;Ă&#x152;Â&#x153;Â&#x2DC;Ă&#x160;Â&#x2DC;Â&#x153;Ă&#x153;Ă&#x160;Â&#x2026;>Ă&#x192;Ă&#x160;Â&#x153;Ă&#x203A;iĂ&#x20AC;Ă&#x160;xäĂ&#x160;ÂŤiĂ&#x20AC;ViÂ&#x2DC;Ă&#x152;Ă&#x160;Â&#x153;vĂ&#x160; the popular vote, sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the victor.

If not, remove the last place ďŹ nisher again and repeat the process till we have a winner with more than half of the vote.

It might sound impossible to change something as entrenched as the voting system. Bear in mind, though, that

>Â?Â&#x2C6;vÂ&#x153;Ă&#x20AC;Â&#x2DC;Â&#x2C6;>]Ă&#x160; Â&#x153;Ă&#x2022;Â&#x2C6;Ă&#x192;Â&#x2C6;>Â&#x2DC;>Ă&#x160;>Â&#x2DC;`Ă&#x160;7>Ă&#x192;Â&#x2026;Â&#x2C6;Â&#x2DC;}Ă&#x152;Â&#x153;Â&#x2DC;Ă&#x160; State already use two round systems and many other countries (including Australia, Germany, New Zealand and South Africa) have switched to an alternative voting system.

So instead of voting for the person whom you fear the least, or opting for the candidate who might raze the whole place to the ground, we can make renovations that at least allow for the quality foundation to remain intact.

Putting a Face On Latest show by Inis Nua serves as ultimate test in actor versatility.

BY Jacqueline Rupp

3+,//<:((./< &20

T

he amazing transformation of Mike Deesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; face from beige to pure white happens in a matter of minutes. The end result? A ghostly, almost disembodied look that seemingly appears to ďŹ&#x201A;oat above his own body supplanted by facial expressions that serve as the quintessential exclamation point. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We start with our base of white you literally just glob on,â&#x20AC;? said Dees, the star of Dublin By Lamplight, the upcoming performance by the Inis Nua Theatre Company. To say this play has its share of quirks would be an understatement.

First thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the makeup, then thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the fact that the actors not only pantomime most of their set, they also speak in third person and face the audience while sharing dialogue. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all pretty tricky, especially for a small cast of just six who play 30 different characters.

Tom Reing, founder and artistic director describes it as an â&#x20AC;&#x153;amalgamation of comedic style performance,â&#x20AC;? with mime, storyteller theater, a style of clowning called â&#x20AC;&#x153;beaufontâ&#x20AC;? and probably even kabuki theater thrown in.

Before each rehearsal and performance, each actor is responsible for getting their own makeup set. Dees, a veteran of Inis Nua, said for him it takes between 45 minutes to an hour to apply.

In order to get the look down, the actors relied on costume and makeup designer, Maggie Baker to provide instruction on how to get the speciďŹ c looks she created for this run. But Baker, a former professor at the University of the Arts didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have signiďŹ cant experience with the makeup style, although she was highly intrigued by it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is rather its own thing,â&#x20AC;? said Baker. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The most important part of it is ďŹ nding how to adapt it to each personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own muscles. It is more than just makeup, it is a living mask. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really is a tool the actors can use to create amazing character differences and moments.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a little weird,â&#x20AC;? said Dees. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re covering up all of your fea-

tures and painting on new ones so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sort of strange to see how you look afterward.â&#x20AC;?

Job hazards include dry skin, stubborn smears and spots of makeup leftover. With sometimes two shows a day itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of makeup wipes to go through.

Another liability? Getting an itch on your nose where you just ďŹ nished applying makeup and not being able to touch it. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worth it for the cast who gets to play around with creating new facial expressions and gestures outside of the face they were born with.

But the effect the makeup creates with each facial contortion is the real allure. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The makeup helps with how they contort their face to take on a different character,â&#x20AC;? said Reing, who formerly trained as an actor at Corn Exchange, the original Dublin theater troupe to perform Dublin by Lamplight. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The reason why Corn Exchange started, is [artistic director] Annie Ryan saw Irish actors who could tell a story so well, but didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t physically embody their characters.â&#x20AC;?

Enter this dramatic makeup style. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like the Muppets doing Chekhov,â&#x20AC;? said Reing with a grin. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like a cartoon and then it just turns on a dime and gets so serious and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re just watching these monsters playâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;and by monsters I mean that in a good way.â&#x20AC;?

This use of makeup seems to have stuck for Inis Nua as the Avenue of the Arts company is working on another production that employs this same style.

This time though, it wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be about

Dubliners, but more like vampires and camp video horror entitled, Carmilla: Video Nasty.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just the makeup thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a challenge with this style of theater. Dees said that he basically had to relearn everything he learned in acting school to take on these characters. Not only do you need to know your lines, but everyone elseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s too. Add in that throughout the entire show, music director John Lionarons never stops playing or adding in sound effects (sometimes all at the same time) ensuring that actors need to always match cues. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If your mind relaxes for a second you miss something,â&#x20AC;? said Dees. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re voicing a character off stage or doing a costume changeâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like a two hour marathon. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no phoning it in, you

have to be on the whole time.â&#x20AC;?

For this play, the company partners with Drexelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Theater Department, in a unique collaboration that is a ďŹ rst for Inis Nua. While Reing teaches at both Temple and West Chester, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s never had students in his productions. But with this play several have been able to learn everything from the bold makeup stylings to the quirky stage directions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Drexel has been so supportive,â&#x20AC;? Reing said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I really admire them and having this program where their students get to work with professionals has really been a great hands on learning experienceâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;not just for the students but the actors as well.â&#x20AC;?

Highly Suspect

H

ighly Suspect, a band that went from a bar in Cape Cod to performing at the 58th annual Grammy Awards, headlined Union Transfer on Oct. 28, touring in advance of their new album The Boy Who Died Wolf, slated for release on Nov. 18.

The band is no stranger to playing in Philly, having done a few shows at Milkboy. However, according to Rich Meyer, the bass guitarist for Highly Suspect, one particular show didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go quite as planned at Milkboy and they made sure the venue didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget it.

Colorful Performance Entertainer Bridget Everett looks to bare it all in her return to Philly.

BY Jacqueline Rupp

Y

ouâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d know her by face, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been the laugh out loud work of Bridget Everett that forces people to remember her by name.

The bawdy comedian/actor/singer has appeared on both stage and screen (Inside Amy Schumer, Trainwreck, Sex and the City) and returns to Philly after wowing crowds at a sold out show in January. This time, Everett returns for a another night of boobs, brash comedy and Broadway-style singing in her cabaret show at the Fillmore.

Last month, PW caught up with Everett to ďŹ nd out more about her new show, what fans attending the show can expect and... whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really underneath those sequins.

Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s your advice for pulling off the no bra look?

ConďŹ dence. Relish in the comfort of it. And smile.

Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re just tits, after all.

Should all us women give it a try?

Absolutely! My mom did it and she had big ones!

Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s your opinion on how things are going in the presidential election, has it bled into your subject matter on stage?

I know who I want to win. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a feminist and I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want anyone grabbing my pussy unless I ask them to. That saidâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sick of talking about the election and just want it to be over. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a focus of my show at all.

Thoughts on Philly? Any good or bad experiences?

I love Philly. The audiences are fucking great. I played the Troc last year and have to say, it was pretty incredible. The people of Philly have big hearts and they let you feel that.

What was it like for you the first time you got on stage in a sexy low cut dress? Were you nervous?

It was an accident. I actually was wearing pants and singing a song called â&#x20AC;&#x153;Canholeâ&#x20AC;? and I pulled the back of my pants down to show a whisper of my can. But my pants fell off and I just stepped out of them, kept singing. I was like, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oh, this feels great!â&#x20AC;?

And I never looked back.

How many nip slips do you average a year?

Only one is intentional per show but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d say she pops out 4-5 times a night. Multiply that times 100 shows a year and where do you end up?

Who inspires you or you influenced you growing up?

My mom. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so funny and doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even know it.

She also went everywhere without a bra. I also loved Lucille Ball, Richard Pryor, Gilda Radner and Freddie Mercury. And of course, Barry Manilow!

Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s your response to haters online?

Send them love. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m living my dream and I hope they get a chance to do the same.

What gave you the strength to be so confident in your skin?

Probably my mom. She always told me that I was beautiful. Well, my mom and Chardonnay.

What are you dressing as for Halloween?

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m dressing as someone who has the night off and is going out for margaritas.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;One time when we performed at the Milkboy, the food was shit, the service was shit, they didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have anyone helping us, and it sucked,â&#x20AC;? Meyers told PW. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So before we left, [lead singer] Johnny [Stevens] took a shit in the green room.â&#x20AC;?

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been this mentality that has given Highly Suspect a strong following of devotees, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been their music that keeps those same people coming back for more. Drawing their inďŹ&#x201A;uence from artists like Pink Floyd, they still strive to sound like anything but. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are deďŹ nitely intense on being completely original,â&#x20AC;? said Meyers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Anything that sounds like anybody else is out the door. Even our cover songs sound way different from the original.â&#x20AC;?

So how did a band that strives for complete originality with two Grammy nominations come into being? According to Meyer, it was a long time connection with Stevens. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We originally started in a basement in Cape Cod, and we were just playing together and living together until Johnny got a solo gig at one of his friendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bars, and he wanted me to help out with it. Originally my cousin was part of the band, but he left, so we had to try people out. I wanted my brother to join, but you know, we couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just let him in, it had to be valid. He got the job because he was better than everyone else.â&#x20AC;?

From this union Highly Suspect was born, and after spending years covering bands like Pink Floyd and Jimi Hendrix, along with releasing records such as Highly Suspect and The Black Ocean, the group struck gold with their most recent album, Mister Asylum. However, Meyers never expected it would to get a Grammy nod and lead them on a continued path to success. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We knew we were out of our league, it was completely unexpected, and while it was a cool thing, you know we had fun, we really arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expecting much.â&#x20AC;?

Beer Bans Memorable boycotts on some of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most famous brews.

British beer, 1770s Organized by: Colonial patriots.

Reason: Taxation without representation.

Howâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d it go? Pretty damn well. George Washington led the so-called nonimportation movement by urging Americans to turn their backs on British ale and instead enjoy Philadelphiamade porter. That, and the Redcoatsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; surrender at Yorktown, gave us our independence.

Philadelphia Lager Beer Brewers Association, 1887 Organized by: The Knights of Labor Reason: Wage cuts for brewery workers.

Howâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d it go? Mixed. The boycottâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; which takes its name from reviled Irish land agent Charles Boycottâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; emerged in the late 19th century as an effective means to organize labor.

Launched in support of a citywide brewery strike, this one lasted about ďŹ ve months and sparked similar successful labor protests across America.

But the Knights of Labor lost support among brewery workers and

TWITTER: @BEER_RADAR

Molson, 1979 Organized by: Hockey fans in Winnipeg, Edmonton and Quebec City.

Reason: The brewery-owned Montreal Canadiens of the NHL opposed merger with the upstart World Hockey Association.

Howâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d it go? Score! Hockey fans in the three towns had worried that their home teams would die if they didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t join the NHL. The boycott forced the Canadiens to drop their opposition and welcome the teams into the league.

ow that Dick Yuengling has outed himself as an unapologetic Trump supporter, beer drinkers are calling for a boycott of his breweryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s famous lager.

Only time will tell if the Yuengling suffers from its ownerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s politics.

Protests like this have a mixed track record.

Organized by: AFL-CIO and various minority groups.

Reason: Extreme right-wing politics, discrimination of minorities and gays, anti-union efforts.

Howâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d it go? Mixed. The Coors family never changed its politics (it helped found the conservative Heritage Foundation), but it did change its corporate citizenship. Following a drop in sales in the 1980s, the company signed a labor contract and became of the the earliest large corporations to extend beneďŹ ts to same-sex couples.

Organized by: The Catholic League, conservative anti-defamation organization led by ďŹ rebrand Bill Donohue.

Reason: The Irish brewery pulled its sponsorship of the St. Patrickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day parade in New York because of its ban on gay marching groups.

Howâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d it go? Not so good. First, the group wrongly lumped Heineken into the boycott because it thought it was owned by Guinness. Then the parade organizers reversed its ban on LGBT groups. Miffed over the decision, Donohue fretted that gays would march without their pants on.

QRYHPEHU

Coors, 1970s, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;80s

Guinness, 2014

Guinness, 2000 Organized by: Irish bars in Philadelphia.

Reason: A subsidiary of the breweryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s owner, Diageo, was behind the development of Fado, the Irish theme bar at 16th and Locust streets. Local bars whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d been serving Guinness for years saw that as unfair competition.

Howâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d it go? Mixed.

Though several of the bars continue to boycott it, Guinness is bigger than ever. Locally, many beer drinkers simply switched to Sly Fox Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Reillyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Stout.

Budweiser, 2008 Organized by: Spontaneous Reason: The sale of American-owned Anheuser-Busch to foreign-owned Inbev.

Howâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d it go? Mixed.

The deal went through and the boycott dissolved, but as Americans switched to more ďŹ&#x201A;avorful craft beer, sales of Budweiser dropped by 25 percent in the next ďŹ ve years.

AB-Inbev is ďŹ ghting back by buying up its small competitors.

Little Red RooStarr Coffee Cream Stout Starr Hill (Crozet, Va.) Milk stout ALCOHOL: 5.6% SIXPACK SEZ: Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a black coffee drinker. Despoiling a perfectly fine cup of joe with something squeezed out of a grass-chewing, Monsanto-ized cow seems wholly unnatural. Thankfully, this smooth-bodied stout doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t contain any actual cream. But one whiff tells you those are some serious coffee beans. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll take mine with a donut.

PJFF: The Tenth Man

SCREEN

Philadelphia Jewish Film Festival

C

elebrating its 36th anniversary, the two-week event that is the Philadelphia Jewish Film Festival kicks off Saturday, Nov. 5.

Scattered throughout 10 venues in Center City, Old City, University City and the suburbs, this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s festival features 33 movies from 12 different countries. The ďŹ lms were chosen after an extensive year long search by a screening committee for the best Jewish cinema has to offer.

The festival kicks off with the Philly premiere of One Week and a Day at the Kimmel Center. Asaph Polonsky, the highly acclaimed Israeli director (Samnang, In Bed at 10pm, Ritch-Ratch), debuts this dark Israeli comedy, depicting the story of two grieving parents mourning the loss of their young son.

The Last Mentsch, recipient of the top award in last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s festival, returns to the silver screen for a 1:30pm matinee on Nov. 6. The ďŹ lm tells the story of an aging Auschwitz survivor who rejected his Jewish identity in the wake of WWII, but with the help of a chain-smoking Turkish woman, the unlikely duo journey on a roadtrip to reconnect with his past and rediscover his heritage.

The Gershman Y (401 S. Broad St.) will play host to Jessie Auritt and Benji Elkinsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; documentary, Supergirl. This ďŹ lm chronicles the story of 11-year-old Naomi Kutin, a competitive weightlifter and Orthodox Jew, who has to use more than her physical strength to battle cyber bullying, health challenges and dietary restrictions while preparing for both her Bat Mitzvah and her journey to be the best weightlifter she can.

Song of Songs, which received a fair amount of buzz when it ďŹ rst premiered in the Czech Republic last year will screen at the Hiway Theater (212 York Road, Jenkintown). With breathtaking scenes of the Eastern European landscape, this coming-ofage story is set in a Ukrainian village and features a precocious young boy whose disapproving parents and Rabbi doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t approve of his views on both his interior and exterior world.

He ďŹ nds solace by virtue of a kindred spirit; a girl from his neighborhood who shares his perspective and fascination with the world.

Special event passes are available for screenings on opening, centerpiece and closing nights. But there are also options for passes which allow participants entrance to brunches and ďŹ lm talks, both after and before select viewings. The festival is a celebration of Jewish identity, culture, history and community. For more information visit pjff.org â&#x20AC;&#x201D;AUSTIN MACFADDEN

SAVAGE LOVE: DAN SAVAGE

Cuck Everlasting

3+,//<:((./< &20

I

â&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a 41-year-old male who looks like the tall, strong, professional, alpha-male type on the outside. On the inside, though, I would like to ďŹ nd a strong, conďŹ dent woman who wants a cuckolding relationshipâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;she sleeps with other men, while I am faithful and submissive to her. There must be women out there who would love to have a loving, doting boyfriend or husband waiting at home while they go out with other men, but I tend to attract women who want the alpha-male type. What can I do to ďŹ ndâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;or attractâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the kind of woman Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m interested in? â&#x20AC;&#x201D;Another Lad Pursuing Humiliating Action â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most women, even dominant women, are still looking for guys who look like they â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;kick ass and take namesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in every other aspect of their lives,â&#x20AC;? said FleeMarket (u/ďŹ&#x201A;ee_market), one of the moderators of r/cuckold on Reddit. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As for how to ďŹ nd dominant women, I see a lot of submissive guys on various websitesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;OkCupid, Reddit, Tinder, FetLifeâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and something they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t understand is that women looking for sex or love online tend to get buried in unsolicited PMs from thirsty guys. That makes it hard to ďŹ nd that one respectful PM from a guy like our letter writer here. The signal gets lost in the noise.â&#x20AC;?

Before we get to some practical advice for ALPHA, a quick word about the term â&#x20AC;&#x153;cuck.â&#x20AC;? While it has long been an affectionate/horny term embraced by self-identiďŹ ed cuckold fetishists, the altright has attempted to turn â&#x20AC;&#x153;cuckâ&#x20AC;? into a term of abuse, hurling it at any straight white man who gives a shit about racial justice, police brutality, and the plight of undocumented immigrants. In an effort to wrest â&#x20AC;&#x153;cuckâ&#x20AC;? back from the bigots, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m dedicating this weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s column to â&#x20AC;&#x153;cuckâ&#x20AC;? as properly understood: a guy who wants his partner to sleep with other men.

So, ALPHA, how can you attract a woman who wants a cuck? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worked for me is using the internet not to ďŹ nd people but to ďŹ nd kinky events where dominant women

gather in real life,â&#x20AC;? said FleeMarket. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m on my second openly dominant female partner in four years, both of whom I met at kinky parties. The events are usually listed on FetLife, and you usually have to attend a munch ďŹ rst to demonstrate that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not a dingus who canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t follow the rules or a psycho who doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care about them.â&#x20AC;?

You will ďŹ nd a lot of advice for wannabe cucks on r/cuckold, most offered in response to men trying to talk their vanilla wives or girlfriends into cuckolding them. But youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re as likely to read stories of failure (she said no, absolutely not, never) as you are to read success stories (sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fucking other guys, and here, with her okay, is the video). â&#x20AC;&#x153;As much effort and time as getting into the kinky community takes, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still easier than trying to turn a vanilla woman kinky,â&#x20AC;? said FleeMarket. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;lead with his kink.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; If a woman asks him what his interests are, mention it, but dial down the excitement level. These ladies deal with a lot of creeps, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easy to scare them off.

Basically: Be in the right place, treat the women there with respect, and get to know them as people ďŹ rst.â&#x20AC;?

My ex-three-exes-ago was a cuckold. I swore I would never date another cuckold after he blew up at me for not cheating on him juuuuuust right. I was just a prop, and I came to hate him. I also hated you, Dan, because he raised the subject by giving me some of your columns to read. Fast-forward ďŹ ve years, and my brand-new boyfriend tells me being cuckolded is his ultimate fantasy.

I literally started to cry. He held me, he apologized on behalf of all cuckolds everywhere, we laughed, and then he dropped it. He didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t pressure me, and about a year later, we gave it a try on his birthday. It turns out my boyfriendâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;ďŹ ancĂŠ nowâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;is much better at this kink than my ex was. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s open and honest, he communicates constructively, and he was willing to step outside his comfort zone to accommodate my needs. (He wanted the other guys to be strangers, but I need to know someone before letting him in my body.) I have a regular thing with an ex-FWB, and sex with my cuck is frequent and hot. Things couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be better. So Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not mad at you anymore, Dan! All is forgiven! â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Cheating Happily Ever After, Thanks!

Congrats on your upcoming wedding, CHEAT! And ALPHA? It would appear some vanilla women can be turned. Â&#x201E;
