july 18 The front cover may be a little washed out, this week, but there’s plenty of color to be found in the pages of this issue (and the events coming up this weekend)!

Let’s start with red. The brilliantly scarlet Loy Show Barn hosts country singer/songwriter Robbie Fulks for one night only. We’re pumped to see him take the stage! John Sievers has the details on page 8.

Dragagonza, the annual Rochester Girls, Inc. show, comes to the Civic Theatre this weekend as well. Between the costumes, makeup, and stage lights, you’re sure to walk out dazzled! See Post-Bulletin reporter Matt Stolle’s interview with performer Sidonia Dudval for the full rundown.

Colorful clay is Jack Quincey’s medium of choice. As the driving force behind Mechanism Animations, he spends years working on stop-motion movies. PB reporter Emily Cutts talks to him later in this issue!

Finally, we broke down our sister city’s celebration (1,500 pounds of candy! 600 cumulative miles run!) in our by-the-numbers piece on Byron Good Neighbor Days. See you at the parade!

For musician Tommy Anderson, coming home is hard work.

Anderson is returning to visit his hometown of Hammond partially for vacation, partially for work, and

partially to show his newlywed wife, Joan, his old stomping grounds.

The trip is hard work because he will have to continue producing his two upcoming albums and do a couple of shows.

“It’s a new start at life,” Anderson said about his new marriage and his new work pace. A surge of new original songs has prompted Anderson to spend way more time in the music studio, while still trying to perform gigs and run his music store, Tommy Rocks, in Jerome, Arizona.

With all that going on, Anderson found time to visit the Rochester area and perform a Beatles-themed show at Uncle Jon’s Bar and Grill on Sunday from 1 p.m. until 4 p.m.

While Anderson grew up in the area, his performance on Sunday will be one of only a handful he’s done in the region since he moved to Arizona in 1992 after graduating from Rochester Community College.

Anderson, who grew up in the 70s, never played guitar or ukulele as a kid, the instruments he is now known for playing. In fact, he didn’t believe he could play them.

“There’s no way that a farm kid is going to be playing a guitar in a school and I just thought, well I can’t play guitar,” Anderson said.

What changed his mindset was a quote from Henry Ford: “Whether you think you can or you (think you) can’t, you’re right.”

Anderson realized that nobody was stopping him from playing guitar, so he sold his motorcycle to get his first electric guitar when he was 18 years old.

Up until that point, he believed that he would go on to work on the family farm.

“I’ve got two sisters and I’m the only son – we had three kids – so you know you’re kinda destined to take over the farm,” Anderson said.

It was rock ‘n roll music of the 60s and 70s that changed his mind and made him want to become a musician and not a farmer.

“There’s rarely been a time that such great music came out, that such diverse music came out, as (the) 60s and 70s,” Anderson said. “It was beautiful.”

Anderson is now popularly known for covering Beatles music and is even known as “The Beatles Guy,” in Arizona. He has started three Beatles groups: Ringo McLennonSon, The Beatless and B3, but is able to “hold down the fort” during his solo Beatles shows.

“Everybody knows every word and every cord to every song,” Anderson said about the audiences at his hit Beatles shows. He hopes that the trip down memory lane will turn Uncle John’s into a large sing-along.

Anderson will also be featuring one of his favorite instruments, the ukulele, at his show on Sunday. On it he performs his favorite song on his Beatles set, a rendition of “In My Life.”

“It’s so pretty that it made me, like, tear up on stage, out in the audience people’ll be crying,” Anderson said. “And hopefully I’ll become world-famous just on this arrangement because it is so beautiful.”

Anderson started the Jerome Ukulele Orchestra, which gained national attention after being featured on America’s Got Talent. His music shop in Jerome, Tommy Rocks, is now the largest ukulele vendor in Arizona, so he refers to Jerome as “Ukulele Heaven.”

Anderson is self-taught on all of his instruments, and appears to have a gift. He even goes so far as to call music theory easy.

However, Anderson attributes his skill to practice – specifically 1,000 hours of practice.

“As long as you don’t quit, you will become something,” he said.

His other key to musical success, play what you love.

“Life is too short to play crappy music,” Anderson said.

A one-man play about the aftermath of Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico will be presented at 7:30 p.m. July 27 in Lanesboro.

“Juracan: The Jibaro and His Three Sons” features playwright/actor Ricardo Vazquez in a bilingual show with music, mask and audience participation. Vazquez created the play in partnership with director Robert Rosen.

The show traces the history of Puerto Rico, its people and visitors to the island, from the Taino kingdoms to the vulture capitalist trying to turn Old San Juan into a utopia for bitcoin billionaires. Debris left by Hurricane Maria is included as props.

Vazquez is based in New York, but has performed at the Guthrie and Mixed Blood

in the Twin Cities. He is co-founder of Other Tiger Productions, which presented “My Journey, My Music” with the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra.

Rosen was founding member and co-artistic director of Theatre de la Jeune Lune. He was a Playwrights’ Center McKnight Theatre fellow and is on the faculty at the University of Minnesota and Macalester College.

“Juracon: The Jibaro and His Three Sons” is presented at Discovery Faith, 507 Parkway Ave. S, in Lanesboro. Tickets are $15, available in advance at Parkway Market, 201 Parkway Ave. N, in Lanesboro.

A meet-and-greet session with Vazquez will follow the performance.

Lanesboro play to look at hurricane’s impact on Puerto Rico

FIND IT IN 507

For the past two decades, Jack Quincey has been making micro movements in Rochester.

Quincey, 29, is a stop-motion animator. Self-taught, Quincey and

his “rag-tag group of friends” make their films on a shoestring budget for his studio Mechanism Animations. One of Quincey’s films that can be seen on his Facebook page or YouTube channel is LIGHT BULB, the story of a young boy, his imagination, and the problems it creates throughout his life.

His current project, a gory and scary zombie film with a little bit of mystery, is about a year in the works.

Quincey spoke with 507 last week about his passion and how he got his start.

HOW DID YOU BEGIN ANIMATING?I started when I was about 10. I started

seeing commercials on TV and movies and TV shows, like “Wallace and Gromit,” “Gumby,” and “The Nightmare Before Christmas.” I had a webcam and started playing with play-dough, and it kind of grew from that. I was using action figures and playing around with stop motion and then it just kind of grew from there.

TELL ME ABOUT YOUR PROCESS.I usually start with an idea and I have

tons of ideas. It’s usually me and my best friend Jordan [Boettcher]. We get together and figure out a story, and most of our movies kind of star ourselves. It is kind of silly but we just have the most fun that way ... most of our movies are about the alter egos of ourselves

We usually get together and we will either go off an idea that I have or an idea that he has, and write stories and draw pictures and I’ll make characters out of clay – or we’ve used LEGO in the past. It starts with an idea, writing, making everything out of clay or using the materials we have, and then going forth and animating. I try to get into the animation as soon as possible just because it takes the longest. Hopefully, with most projects, it takes a year or two.

Once the animation is complete, I do the editing and add the sound effects and voices and music. It’s kind of a long process but it’s really fun to look back and actually see the completed project you’ve made.

HOW MANY SHOTS OR FRAMES DOES IT TAKE TO MAKE A SHORT FILM, LIKE YOUR FILM LIGHT BULB, POSSIBLE? CAN YOU GUESS ON HOW MANY PHOTOS OR FRAMES THAT TOOK?

It was probably 21 frames per second, so that means I have to take 21 pictures to get a second. Sometimes the characters are kind of still, and I call that lazy animation on my part, but especially if they are moving or walking, that can take a lot of time between each picture. So maybe making a few seconds of animation could take three hours or four hours at a time.

HOW DO YOU STAY PATIENT? I IMAGINE MOVING A CLAY FIGURE, OR A FIGURE, INCREMENTALLY OVER A PERIOD OF THREE HOURS COULD DRIVE SOME PEOPLE CRAZY.

Oh yeah, absolutely. I didn’t always used to be patient, I’ve learned a lot over the years.

Sometimes, the puppets, or whatever you are working with, it really has a mind of its own so if you want it to move one way or you want it to look one certain way, it might move or might look different on the camera so you really have to roll with it. Sometimes mistakes turn out to be happy accidents. I’ll have a cup of tea while I’m working and make sure I am in the right mindset. I make sure I go over what I need to do in my head, or I will practice, even doing a quick playthrough of it with the puppets: “OK, so this puppet needs to walk over here and that will take this many pictures.”

I will kind of try it out first and do little exercises just to make sure it will go smoothly. Unfortunately, sometimes it doesn’t, and sometimes I just have to take a break and go and try it again later.

WHAT ARE YOU WORKING ON NOW?I’m working on a title that’s called

“Brainless” and it’s a zombie claymation movie. We are hoping it is going to be a little different than a lot of the zombie movies you see nowadays. My friend Jordan and I came up with it almost over 10 years ago.

“Brainless,” I just got done with the first scene of it, which took about a year. It’s only about three minutes so far. We will do multiple episodes of it and we will try to do a fundraiser pretty soon and hopefully

throw it in some film festivals, get our movies more noticed.

It’s definitely the biggest movie I’ve ever made because there is going to be a whole cast of zombies out of clay. A whole bunch

of different zombies, colorful ones, kind of funny-looking zombies and of course, Jack and Jordan.

DragagonzaPHOTOS BY JOE AHLQUISTBy MATTHEW STOLLE

Nearly two decades in drag

Darren Wendt, aka Sidonia Dudval, hadn’t picked out his outfits for Saturday’s 19th annual Dragagonza when 507 Magazine caught up with him last week.

But the self-described “glam queen” could see them in his mind. Sometimes puffy and colorful, other times dramatic and theatrical. Always over-the-top and badass.

“Drag is all about having fun,” Wendt said.

This year’s Dragagonza will take place at The Rochester Civic Theatre Company, 20 Civic Center Dr. SE, Rochester. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and the show starts at 8 p.m.

We asked Wendt five questions about the show, its origins and its near-20-year run.

How did you get started in drag?I got double-dared to do Miss Gay

Rochester. That was in ‘98. I thought, “Heck, I’m not going to win.” Lo and behold, I win. It just kind of stuck. I’m a graphic artist at Mayo Clinic. I love art. So the artform of drag is just really interesting to me where you can transform into anything.

You started these drag shows at the Unitarian church. That’s an interesting place to start them. How did that happen?

I don’t know who reached out to who, but the GLCS (Gay and Lesbian Community Services of Southeast Minnesota) wanted to have dances, and so the Unitarian church opened up the basement for us to hold these gay and lesbian dances. So then we kind of expanded.

Are you surprised that Dragagonza has been going on for

nearly two decades?Yes. To give you an idea: I was older

when I started drag. I’m 46 now. And I’m not one of those young people out there - you know, they look fabulous. It takes a lot more spackle for me to let go.

What do you attribute the show’s longevity to?

I’ve never been asked that question. I think it’s the fans, the audience. I don’t want to put Rochester down. I love Rochester, but I also think entertainment is kind of suffering a little bit. And we’ve been going on for so long, and we’re still here. I get messages from people I don’t even know. They’re like, “The show was great! I got my picture taken.” It’s the fans, the audience that’s kept us rolling.

How is drag an expression of who you are?

It’s going to sound cliche. I grew up on a dairy farm. I was never, like, physical. I mean, I could bail hay if I

had to. I would milk cows if I had to, but I wasn’t, like, out in the tractors or anything like that. I was actually at home with my mom, and my mom was probably my muse and my inspiration, because she was a classy lady.

And I had my girl cousins who would say, “Let’s play Barbie!” I loved Barbie. That’s where my persona goes. I try to be the Barbie of the group. I try to be glamorous, classic, very Jane Russell.

If you go

Your momma always scolded, “you act like you’re raised in a barn,” but the music in the Loy Show Barn this weekend will make you wish she was right.

Grammy-nominated alternative country singer and songwriter Robbie Fulks is coming from Los Angeles to play. He’s been making music for 30 years and has released 13 albums. On July 20, he’ll take the corner stage, right above the “5 STRING” Minnesota license plate nailed to its front. His band will be rounded out with Robbie Gjersoe (resonator), Don Stiernberg (mandolin), and Larry Kohut (string bass).

Fulks took some time to answer questions for 507 readers.

YOUR MOTHER WAS AN AUTOHARP PLAYER AND YOUR FATHER PLAYED GUITAR. HOW DID THIS AFFECT YOUR MUSIC?

Music was a thing to join into right at home, not simply to consume passively off a record player or at a concert — that was the thing that was driven home for me early on. Music’s my profession now, but there are so many ways you can mess up by separating yourself out from other people, by getting lost in self-awareness and pride in your professionalism. I don’t think you can do it right unless you hold on to some of that feeling of being seven and diving with a mixture of uncertainty and enthusiasm into the water. The water’s always new.

YOU’VE SPENT TIME AS A COUNTRY SONG WRITER FOR NASHVILLE’S MUSIC ROW PUBLISHER API. WHAT WAS THAT EXPERIENCE LIKE?

It was good to quit the office temping, and to meet other writers

and players in Nashville. Also, to break through some of the mystique of songwriting: you do it every day, and throw 90 percent of it in the trash. No big wizardry in that.

YOUR 2016 ALBUM, “UPLAND STORIES,” WAS NOMINATED FOR A GRAMMY AWARD IN THE CATEGORY OF BEST FOLK ALBUM. HOW DO YOU GO ABOUT WRITING AN ALBUM THAT RECEIVES THIS KIND OF ATTENTION?

I’m not a better writer, through and through, since when I was young — I used to be able to write simple songs better, I think, and the kickass imperative has, for better or worse, faded — but I have more harmonic knowledge, more life experience, and more confidence in making offbeat moves in my writing. … I can’t say what precisely was at work behind closed doors that led to the nominations on that song and that album, but I strongly suspect that writing about poverty and religiously/socially motivated art in America, as I did on “Alabama At Night,” qualified me more readily than songs about pretty girls and jukeboxes would have.

HOW DO YOU THINK A VENUE LIKE THE LOY SHOW BARN RESONATES WITH YOUR MUSIC?

I’ve only played in a few barns, but I have strongly positive memories of them. … There are places I’ve played that have felt so awkward to me, given the somewhat homely tone of what I’m presenting ... that I have to overcome some weird apprehensions and self-doubts just to get the first song started and to make the thing flow from there with ease, creating ... an open line of communication with the audience. A barn is the exact opposite of that!

Byron Good Neighbor Days, by the numbersby ANNE HALLIWELL

Our sister city is gearing up for a four-day celebration, the likes of which you haven’t seen (unless, of course, you’ve driven up 14 and taken part in Byron Good Neighbor Days before). We’re

talking fireworks. Parades. Tacos. Pork chops. A hunt for treasure. And much, much more. Here it is, broken down.

Disclaimer: I’ve not ridden Uber since having a less than 5-star experience last year in an Amish area when they sent me the confirmation message, “Jedidiah is your driver, he will arrive in a day and a half.”

Part-time rideshare driver Stu Prasad (Kumail Nanjiani of “The Big Sick”), on the other hand, will do whatever it takes to elicit a top rating from his passengers — from offering chocolates and cool water to taking a bullet for them.

For “Stuber,” as he’s nicknamed by an obnoxious superior at the sporting goods shop that is his full-time job, the evening starts out uneventful: chauffeuring an eclectic array of app users as stingy with their stars as they are with their tips. Things take a turn when the heavy hand of grizzled detective Vic Manning (Dave Bautista, “Guardians of the Galaxy”) thumps the hood of his leased electric car, which he needs to commandeer to pursue a superbad druggie.

The pair then set out, though Stu does so only reluctantly, on a night of adventure. And, for the most part, laughter ensues.

Nanjiani is a master at under-the-breath punchlines and his sensitive millennial foil to Bautista’s Get’er-done LA cop works (think Charles Grodin to Robert De Niro in “Midnight Run”) pretty well. Take, for instance, Stu trying to get Vic in touch with his feelings (“It’s OK to call for backup”) or his reaction to a dive Vic brings him to (“Wow, this place is not gentrified at all”). And by the time Vic gets a pop-up on his phone that the Uber ride cost more than $5,000, he’s taught Stu something about being a man and Stu’s conveyed something, dare I say, “upLyfting,”

about being a human being.But the comedy is not without problems. For one

thing, it doesn’t really find its groove until almost 40 minutes in and by then has committed to so many characters and backstories it can’t unpack it all, the exception being standout Natalie Morales as Vic’s daughter Nicole.

Still, the buddy-cop/road-trip is a reliable formula and this one doesn’t disappoint.

N E W R E L E A S E S

The Lion King

‘Stuber’ a slow-paced, but comfortable ride

“MIDSOMMAR” (HORROR, R, 140 MINUTES)««« A nightmare taking place mostly in the light of day, this gorgeous and weird and ludicrous horror film is set largely in an isolated Swedish village of wide-eyed locals and paganlike rituals. It tests our patience more than once before delivering some seriously grisly and wonderfully twisted material in the final act.

“THE DEAD DON’T DIE” (COMEDY HORROR, R, 104 MINUTES)«««The dead are rising from their graves in Jim Jarmusch’s meta-zombie horror comedy, starring Bill Murray, Adam Driver, Tilda Swinton and other luminaries. Some of the sight gags and quips are gold; others are just filler, but still kind of interesting in a wacky sort of way.

“SHAFT” (COMEDY ACTION, R, 111 MINUTES)««Nineteen years after Samuel L. Jackson played the nephew of ‘70s blaxploitation hero John Shaft (Richard Roundtree), both return in arguably the least memorable entry in the history of the franchise. The son (Jessie T. Usher) of Jackson’s character is the focus in a crass crime thriller played mostly for laughs that are few and far between.

“LATE NIGHT” (COMEDY, R, 102 MINUTES)«««In this sweet and funny and insightful confection of a film, a new writer (Mindy Kaling) shakes up a stodgy talk show hosted by a veteran comedian (Emma Thompson). Nifty subplots help “Late Night” rise above the admittedly funny but sometimes predictable sitcom antics at the talk show.

“DARK PHOENIX” (ACTION FANTASY, PG-13, 115 MINUTES)««In this middling chapter of the “X-Men” series, the telekinetic Jean Grey (Sophie Turner) absorbs a mass of energy that makes her far stronger than ever before, but unable to control the force inside her. The movie doesn’t come close to carrying the emotional impact of so many Marvel Universe films.

“ALADDIN” (MUSICAL FANTASY, PG, 128 MINUTES)«««Despite a couple of large, genie-blue stumbles along the way, Guy Ritchie’s live-action version of Disney’s “Aladdin” is on balance a colorful and lively adventure suitable for all ages and a touching romance featuring two attractive leads. I liked the flying carpet, too.
