East Lansing is celebrat-ing with a benefit concert,“Jamming for Japan,” forthe victims of Japan’searthquake and tsunami.“Kyle Brown from
Fighting Unluckyapproached me aboutdoing a fundraiser forthe relief efforts, and Iwas already brainstorm-ing some ideas for livemusic on Record StoreDay, so it was just a mat-ter of figuring out howto combine the two” saidRecord Lounge local mu-sic director Joel Hecka-man.So local musicians
Heckaman, Brown, DanNufer and Ali White puttheir heads together andcame up with the idea tohave performers at variousLansing locales —mainlyEspresso Royale on EastGrand River Avenue andBiggby on Grand Rivernear Valley Court Park.Twenty-seven artists will
perform between noon and6 p.m. at the locations,each with a jar to collectdonations for the RedCross Relief Efforts.In other Record Lounge

THE LISTDownTimeOur pop culture experts tell
us what’s on their radar
Acid HouseKingsMUSIC S OUNDSBE T T ER W I TH YOU(LABRADOR)It is a little-known fact
that Sweden sits on mys-
tically charged geographic
coordinates whose powers
pervade the nation with dis-
turbingly gifted popcraft.
With “Music Sounds,” the
unfortunately-named Acid
House Kings have delivered
the mother lode.
Though the sheer volume
of cuteness on display
threatens to smother you in
an avalanche of sweaters,
every second of the album
is sometimes sweet, some-
times melancholy but
always utterly infectious.
Like their previous album’s
“That’s Because You Drive
Me,” still a perfect three
minutes of pop, “Music
Sounds” leads off with the
album highlight. “Are We
Lovers Or AreWe Friends”
masks the ambiguity of a
potentially wasted relation-
ship in lush production and
a hip-shaking melody.
Criminally overlooked in
the U.S., Acid House Kings
are due for discovery and
with the sun finally emerg-
ing, “Music Sounds” and
its warm charms could be
what does it.

Capitalizing
on filmM
ost of us know the big-movie experience — big theater, bigstars, big crashes, big boxes of Raisinettes.Now it’s time for the flip side: The first Capital City Film
Festival opens today.This has a youthful feel, including music after the movies. “Music is
such a huge part of films,” said Dominic Cochran, a festival co-founder.He’s bringing a national act (Margot & the Nuclear So & So’s) tonight,a local man with a national following (John Beltran) on Saturday, amixture on Friday.The festival has a Michigan feel, glimpsing Lansing (“The Peanut
Shop,” “Respiration”), Ann Arbor(“Answer This”), Detroit (“The Spiritof Isabel”) and the Ingham CountyFairgrounds (“Happy the Clown”).The one classic-comedy double-fea-ture is a tribute to John Hughes, whowas born in Lansing.Other films, however, are fromfar away. Several are from Burundi,one leaps between Oregon and Af-ghanistan, another follows an Ira-nian filmmaker to South America,seeking Che Guevara memories.Still, all share one trait. “Theseare truly independent films,” said“Isabel” director Robert Butler .
Many are small in budget and in runningtime. “Shorts are a great way to tell a fun story,” said Joel Newport,whose “Happy” mixes gangsters, love and a clown.
And festivals audiences seem to welcome surpris-es. “You’re with people who have a common interest,”said Brian Vander Ark, a rock star (Verve Pipe) andfilmmaker. “These are people who love movies.”The result is more than the usual multiplex experi-
ence, said Kitao Sakurai, whose “Aardvark” opens thefestival. “You’re interacting with people; there’s a lotof life and energy.”Some filmmakers are able to include familiar
names: Van Ark cast himself in “Bullies on Vacation.”For “Shepherds of Helmand,” Gary Mortenson gotnarration from Donald Trump Jr. (“he’s the most reg-ular guy you’ll ever meet”) and a song from the ZacBrown Band. For “Answer This,” Christopher Farahgot production help from his brother Mike, presidentof the Funny or Die site; they emerged with a Hol-lywood cast (led by Christopher Gorham) and rich
production values.Still, there’s also great work from semi-known actors. Butler got
Screen Actors Guild approval, so he could cast a talented Detroitactress (Aphrodite Nikolovski) in “Isabel.” Newport made “Happy theClown” through a SAG agreement; “it’s amazing the actors you can getfor $100 a day,” he said.And sometimes, non-actors do just fine. In “Answer This,” a popular
University of Michigan professor (Ralph Williams) plays someone a lotlike himself. “Aardvark” is based around the real lives of a Clevelandmartial arts teacher and his blind student, then adds a crime tale and apolice detective with a rich bayou accent. “He’s not a cop,” Sakurai said,“and he’s never acted before …. He’s just like that.”In particular, student films show what can be done without big
names and big budgets. “We’ve all been guilty of skipping the studentprograms at film festivals,” Cochran said, “but don’t do that this time.Some of the best films are in the student portion.”Those student films cover a huge range. “Cankered and Cursed” has
humor and artful animation. “Missile Crisis” has the sweet interactionof young brothers during the Cuban missile crisis. “Frank the Assassin”is funny, “Breadwinner” is bittersweet. Then there are Michigan StateUniversity students who tackled documentaries — some somber, somenot.Nick Baker was one of four students profiling Michigan’s public-
defender system. “I’d never heard of the subject before,” he said. In themidst of a snowstorm, he drove to Detroit to meet the family of EddieJoe Lloyd, who had been wrongfully convicted of rape and murder;Lloyd had emerged in poor health from 17 years of prison, then diedtwo years later.On a lighter side, Curtis Matzke profiled The Peanut Shop in down-
town Lansing. Along-side the usual questions,he asked about famouscustomers. “I expectedit might be someone likeJennifer Granholm.”Instead, he learned of
Oscar-nominated, Em-my-winning actress Cic-ely Tyson emergingfrom a limousine to buy$2 worth of peanuts. It’sthe sort of informationyou get from a filmfestival.

Here are sketches of some of thekey Capital City Film Festival movies:
SHORT
“Bullies on Vacation,” 5:30 p.m.FridayGlancing at Brian Vander Ark,
people might guess he’s a former bul-ly. “Physically, I’m imposing, being6-foot-5” and 200 pounds, he granted.But during his Grand Rapids boy-
hood, some 65 pounds ago, he wason the receiving end. “People seem towant to pick on the stringbean,” hesaid. If living well is the best revenge,then he chose perfectly, becoming arock star. Now Vander Ark — of VervePipe fame— has written a short abouta man meeting his former nemesis. Hechose the later role for himself; “it’smuch easier to act like a jerk than tobe subtle.”
OTHER SHORTS
w “Bullies” is in the “Made in Mich-igan” package, with serious films—“Abandon” and “The Spirit of Isabel”— and lighter ones, led by “4 Pictures”and the offbeat “Happy the Clown.”For the latter, Joel Newport — a soundexpert at local Harvest Creative Ser-vices — shot exteriors at the InghamCounty Fair.w Some strong surprises are among
the student films at noon and2 p.m. Saturday. There’s a sweetnessto “Missile Crisis,” a poignancy to“Breadwinner,” sly humor to “Frankthe Assassin.”
DOCUMENTARY“Shepherds of Helmand,” 8:30 p.m.
FridaySoldiers used to preserve war mem-
ories via scribbled notes. Now? “Theyhave flip phones and helmet-cams,”Gary Mortenson said. “Afterward, theystudy them on their laptops.”That was a key part of his film
about Oregon National Guardsmen.He blended their footage, their memo-ries and the work of embedded pho-tographer Charles Eckert.Mortenson focused on six men;
each had volunteered for Afghanistanduty, most had won bronze stars. “Alot of it, they were relating for thefirst time. All six of these guys hadchanged profoundly.”
OTHER
DOCUMENTARIESw “Respiration” began whenMatt
Ortlieb was impressed by monthlyshows at Mac’s Bar. “The lyrical con-tent was strong; it was kind of posi-tive.” His film (10 p.m. Friday) will befollowed by music.w TheMichigan Documentary
Showcase (12:30 p.m. Sunday) has“Death of an Iman,” “The Green Mit-ten” (medical marijuana) and “Pub-licly Defended,” attacking Michigan’spublic-defender system.
ANIMATED
“Prayers for Peace,” 8:30 p.m. Fri-day, before “Shepherds of Helmand.”Dustin Grella creates pastel draw-
ings on a slate chalkboard, then turnsthem into stop-motion animation. Theresult is gorgeous and painstaking.One subject was worthy of this at-
tention: In New York City, he foundmarkers for each American killed inIraq, including his younger brother.Grella began a 17-month project, in-cluding four months of intense draw-ing to create a 7 minute, 38-secondgem.
OTHER ANIMATION
In Saturday’s student-film package,animated films include “The Bird Up-stairs” and the enjoyable “Cankeredand Cursed.”
SCRIPTED FEATURE
“Answer This,” 5 p.m. Sunday, 2500S. Washington Ave.Christopher Farah has plenty of
time to master Ann Arbor. He grew upthere, the son of a dentist, and stayedfor a bachelor’s degree in English anda master’s in Middle Eastern studies.He savored the city and RalphWil-
liams, who taught the Bible as litera-ture. That spurred his script: “I waswriting about a professor. As soon asI thought of ProfessorWilliams, it justall came together.”Friends and family financed the
lush-looking film; his brother Mike— president of production at the Fun-ny or Die site — produced. Williamsplays a professor, with ChristopherGorham (“Covert Affairs”) as his son,a trivia zealot; Nelson Franklin, ChrisParnell and Arielle Kebbel co-star.Scenes ranged from bars (Ashley’s,
Eight Ball) to Michigan Stadium. InLos Angeles, Farah said, “you’ll seefilming everywhere and people arecomplacent. In Michigan, there wasexcitement.”
ANOTHER FEATURE“Aardvark,” at 7 p.m. today, was
built around the real-life personalitiesof Darren Branch, a martial arts in-structor, and Larry Lewis, his student.Then a murder story was added.

‘We AllFall Down’BY NIC SHEFF(LITTLE, BROWN & CO.)The follow-up to bestseller
“Tweak: Growing Up OnMethamphetamines,” reen-ters the narrative of NicSheff’s battle with addictionas he attempts to navigatehis way through relapse andrecovery with all the candorand stark self-assessmentthat made “Tweak” such astartling read.In an age of ubiquitous
celebrity rehab, Sheff isopen about his struggles tofind a place within 12-stepprograms and AAmeetings,working against people whoinsist that their way tosobriety is the only way, tofinally find a sense of peacethat he has forged for him-self. I found it refreshingthat someone stood up tosay “These programs aren’tworking for me.”After many attempts to
negotiate with his addic-tions, Sheff finally finds allthe right puzzle pieces toattain a hard-won sobriety,which he has maintainedfor over two years. Like hisfirst memoir, this will serveas a source of inspirationto people struggling withaddiction, as well as thosetrying to support them.

In just five years, Lan-sing’s Ogrefest has gonefrom a buzzed-about under-ground metal show to some-thing much bigger.This year’s show is Satur-
day at Mac’s, and the line-upincludes 20 metal outfits —many fromMichigan.“It’s very humbling to see
something that was once justan idea in your head growinto something that bandsand fans from around thestate look forward to everyyear,” said David Peterman,founder and creator of thefest and guitarist and vocal-ist in Lansing-based heavymetal band Satyrasis.Peterman chatted with
NOISE about the festival.NOISE:How has this fest
evolved over the years?Peterman: It started out
as a one-off show in Howellthat I threw together withbands that I knew, and itsnowballed from there. Thenext year, we moved theshow to Lansing, broughtin a band from Chicago,threw on even moreMich-igan bands and it startedto look like something thatcould become a yearly thing.
NOISE:One thing I ap-preciate about Ogrefest isthat you showcase plentyof Michigan bands. Thisyear, there’s Dagon, HighSpirits, Satyrasis, Genocyaand more.
Peterman:This year isdefinitely a Michigan year,which is fitting becausethere were so many out-of-state bands last year. Even
though last year was adefinite success, I think Istrayed a little bit from the“By Michigan, For Michi-gan” attitude that the festhas become synonymouswith. So when I set out tobook this year, I dug a littledeeper to find those Michi-gan gems that people haveyet to hear, or have only justheard about.
NOISE:What do youlook forward to every year?
Peterman: Two things:No. 1 is the Ogrefest Break-fast, which is where the col-lection of volunteers and Ihit up a Lansing breakfastspot, shoot the breeze andplan the day … No. 2 is pick-ing in-between band music... Ogrefest has a steadfastpolicy of no metal betweensongs, so what you hear in-stead could be R.E.O. Speed-wagon, Taylor Dayne, BlakeShelton or Air Supply. Thisway, when you hear metalagain, you appreciate it awhole lot more.
• Fifth annual Ogrefest withAcid Witch, High Spirits,Satyrasis, Araphat, HeavyLies the Crown, Dagon,Wastelander, Genocya,Homme Alone, TheDevastator, Ultrathrash,Sworn Secrecy, Dozic Bullpig,Teratoma, Infinte Design,Burn The Hearse, Flood theDesert, Fable of Deceit, TheVirally Enthroned

Spartan green, but as environmen-tally friendly as possible.Assistant professor TheresaWinge created a rubric to mea-sure how sustainable the stu-dents’ dresses were. Theywere asked to research sus-tainable design and then re-cycle, upcycle or repurposematerials.“The students have
walked away with an under-standing of what’s sustain-able, what’s green washing,Winge said. “It’s great tohear them now in the stu-dios talk about the fabricthey’re using (and) howmuch they’ve wasted.”
Senior Leigh Ger-vasi knew
what her eco-friendly gown wouldlook like as soon as she heard theassignment.“You see a lot of paper dresses
but I really wanted to incorporatethe (book) covers and make it sortof evil looking,” Gervasi said.The product of her work is on
display with 15 other sustainablegowns in theMSUMuseum’s Heri-tage Gallery as part of the re:Dressexhibit. The exhibit is accessible tothe public during museum hoursfrom April 17 until July 1.The exhibit features sustain-
ability stories of how studentsmade each aspect of creating thedress as green as possible.Gervasi found the old books in
her grandmother’s basement andgarage sales, and then set to workconstructing a gown. The corsettop was made from the hard cov-ers, held together with old cup-board hinges. The waistband wasmade of woven book jackets, andthe skirt of origami folded pages.“It was more like wood shop
than something I would do in anyof my classes, which was so fun
about,” she said. “I wanted to makesomething that was beautiful andfeminine, but with all these hard(pieces).”Gervasi said the project opened
her eyes to the amount of wastecreated in the fashion and textileindustries.“I didn’t realize how wasteful
our industry is,” she said. “It’sdefinitely something I thinkabout now, not only in how Imake clothes but how I shop.”Student curator Lauren
Paulauskas said she hopesthe exhibit will make peoplethink more about sustain-ability.“Just because it has a leaf
on it doesn’t mean it’s sus-tainable,” she said.“People tend to need a
new outfit for the week-end, go to Forever 21, buysomething for $12, and thenif it rips throw it away,”she said. “It’s nice totry to think about thecause and effect ofyour actions.”

I have friends who are trivia enthusiasts. No, notthe types who sit at the computer and try out forWhoWants to Be aMillionaire, Jeopardy! and thelike, but those who spend upward of three hours ata bar, where they eat, drink and be merry while put-ting their minds to the test. (No scientific evidenceif alcohol helps trigger information stored in thebrain.)The latter sounds a lot more fun so we headed
out to Michigan Brewing Company (or MBC) inLansing, where trivia takes over the bar starting at7 p.m. on Tuesdays.I already knew I wouldn’t be the best player
out there — I’m not much of a keeper of uselessinformation about what Mario’s name was in theoriginal Donkey Kong (real question) or who theteam doctor was on the 1980 Super Bowl team (nota real question, but I’m sure someone knows theanswer).But I wanted to check it out, and I had to know
the answers to a few questions, right?One section of MBC’s dining area is solely for
trivia, and the other side — the bar side — is forother patrons.I could definitely tell some of these teams were
regulars. In fact, during our second trip for trivia,we couldn’t even get a table on the trivia side atfirst. The waitress told us she was sure this one biggroup would leave soon because they had alreadybeen there for more than an hour so they probablyweren’t in it for the trivia. Boy, was she wrong.While there were a few teams with older mem-
bers, much of the participants seem to be in theirmid-to-late 20s or early 30s.My friends are used to playing trivia run by a
company, but at MBC, it’s a one-man show, which Ialready prefer. The game is laid back, and the host
is pretty chill.The game goes by the honor code — no looking
up the answer on cellphones, which is difficult totrack when people are checking their email andsending texts throughout the course of the night.The game features six categories: Video games,
language, history, sports and movies were all upfor grabs during my two visits. Two categories arealloted for doubling of points, and one category canbe tripled.If there’s a strategy to winning, I haven’t figured
it out. I’d imagine having people whose strength
in knowledge in different areas might be an advan-tage. For example, we had someone who minoredin history.And the more heads that are put together usually
put up the better points.My first week there, we didn’t do so well, but we
did have just three people. Second week, we tiedfor third place — good for a six-pack of beer. Splitsix ways.And Mario’s name in the original Donkey Kong?

Hook-upfactor: Medium-high ontrivia night. It’s mostly peo-ple in their 20s or early 30s.
Dress code: T-shirt andjeans. But you won’t be outof place with dress clotheson. MBC attracts the busi-ness-attire folks who throwback a beer or two afterwork.
What’s on tap: This is abeer establishment after all,so there’s plenty on tap tosuit your taste likeTheVixen,Red Rabbit or Spring Fling(my pick). I prefer gettinga sampler — 4 ounces ofbrew for $1. If you get four,that’s like getting 16 ouncesfor $4. On trivia night, you’rebetter off getting a pint,which is $1 off.
Specials: Best day is Mon-days, when six-packs are $2off, 12-packs are $4 off andcases are $8 off.The bestpart is being able to mix andmatch your beer.

with casual buddies,
coworkers and friends.
SAGITTARIUS(NOV. 22 - DEC. 21) You could
experience an explosion in
your romantic life. Tension
has been building, and now
it could blast out of control.
CAPRICORN(DEC. 22 - JAN. 19) The moon
is helping you make a special
connection to someone, and
you’ll be surprised as how
well you and this person are
getting along.
AQUARIUS(JAN. 20 - FEB. 18) You might
have made a joke that didn’t
go over well. Do some
damage control right away.
PISCES (FEB. 19 -MARCH 20) If you and your
honey aren’t getting along,
try not to stress out. Things
will look better after a break
and some rest.
ARIES (MARCH 21 -APRIL 19) As a truthful Fire
sign, you’re pretty open
with people about your
true desires. Sometimes,
this gets you in trouble.
TAURUS (APRIL 20- MAY 20)Don’t be too
passive. The sun is telling
you to take action. If
you’ve been meaning to
ask someone out, go for it.
GEMINI (MAY 21 -JUNE 21) Someone might be
trying to pressure you, and
you don’t appreciate it very
much.
CANCER (JUNE 22 -JULY 22) Venus is increasingyour addiction to someone.
You’ll want to spend time
being close to this person.
LEO (JULY 23 - AUG. 22)You’ll lead the way into a
brighter romantic future as
the sun gives you insight
about how to make your
love life better.
VIRGO (AUG. 23 -SEPT. 22) If you’ve beenhanging on to a relationship
with a troubled person,
don’t waste any more
energy.
LIBRA (SEPT. 23 -OCT. 23)One minute, you’re
ready to get engaged. The
next minute, you just want
to be alone. Mars is
creating some melodrama.
SCORPIO (OCT. 24 -NOV. 21) A friendly moon
is putting you in a good
mood. Enjoy spending time
