ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT FREE WEEKLY
Midway through Arie’s season of The Bachelor, Weekender writers and bachelor-obsessed fans Brigid and D.J. thought it would be a great idea to start a “The Bachelor”/”The Bachelorette” recap and podcast for The Weekender. The two have a Facebook message thread every week about the show, why not let the world in?
With Becca Kufrin and “The Bachelorette” back on our TV screens, they figured the premiere would be a perfect time to officially kick off our Bachelor Nation project — “Will you accept this recap?” and “Will you accept this podcast?”
Friend of the podcast, Pat Kernan, has signed on to give his opinion without having watched any episode of the franchise ever.

Much like he partici-pated in the evolution of the Allman Brothers Band, Warren Haynes has witnessed the ripen-ing of the Peach Music Festival from the inside.
The guitarist and song-writer has performed at the annual four-day gath-ering — founded by the Allman Brothers Band in 2012 — as a member of the seminal Southern rock outfit as well as the frontman for Gov’t Mule, the vehicle for his original music. And he’ll perform in various capacities this year, as the Peach returns Thurs-day through Sunday to the Pavilion at Montage Mountain in Scranton and its surrounding grounds.
Gov’t Mule will per-form the music of Pink Floyd during their “Dark Side of the Mule” set on Saturday, and Haynes will play a solo acoustic set titled “Wake Up with Warren Haynes” on Sun-day morning before Mule headlines the day with a set of their original music.
“The Dark Side of the Mule set goes back 10 years,” Haynes said. “At one of our Hallow-een shows, we played a bunch of Pink Floyd songs and filmed and recorded it, never expect-ing to do it a second time.”
After a similar perfor-
mance five years ago at Mountain Jam in New York, requests flowed in, and Gov’t Mule will have performed their Pink Floyd set seven times by the end of their current summer tour.
“We’re excited now that we made that deci-
sion,” Haynes said. “We’ll take a lot of mate-rial we did 10 years ago and add some to it and hopefully change it night to night. At Peach Fest, it’ll be interesting to do one night of that. ‘Wake Up with Warren’ comes from a whole different
well. I don’t see a reason to repeat any songs over the course of the three sets.”
And when Mule takes the stage Sunday night, it’ll be the band’s boom-ing blues-rock and soul-ful Southern rock catalog that greets the Peach
audience. Their latest record, 2017’s “Revolu-tion Come … Revolution Go,” has been celebrated by critics and fans alike.
“The new material seemed to connect with the audience even quick-er and more deeply than normal,” Haynes said. “It’s fun to see where it goes. The title track, ‘Revolution Come … Revolution Go,’ is fun to play and changes every night. Songs like ‘Thorns of Life’ are going in new directions. ‘Travel-ing Tune,’ we’ve come up with different ways to play it. We open the show with it and close
the show with it. … We can use it in a jam.”
The lineupThroughout the
extended weekend, the Peach Festival will fea-ture more than 50 acts including Phil Lesh & The Terrapin Family Band, The Revivalists, Umphrey’s McGee, moe., Blackberry Smoke, Michael Franti & Spear-head and Karl Denson’s Tiny Universe.
Allman Brothers Band founding member Jai “Jaimoe” Johanson will perform Friday with his Jasssz Band, and fellow founder Dickey Betts — back from retirement — will take the stage Sunday in a performance that would have been thought unlikely, if not impossible, last year.
Betts and the band he helped create parted ways in 2000, and in the 17 years that followed, Betts and Gregg Allman neglected to speak to each other until a few week’s before Allman’s death last year, a series of conversations in which the pair reportedly rec-onciled.
“The Peach Festival is an Allman Brothers family festival,” Haynes said. “That’s the way it started, and I think the spirit of that is still flow-ing. I’m excited to see Dickey perform. He gave me my biggest break of my career. I was in his band before joining the
Peach a family affairGov’t Mule to headline multiple nights of annual music festival
Laura Roberts | Invision/APGuitarist and songwriter Warren Haynes will perform three sets at the Peach Music Festival in Scranton. His band, Gov’t Mule, will perform one set of Pink Floyd and one set of original music, and he’ll get things started on Sunday morning with a solo acoustic set titled ‘Wake Up with Warren Haynes.’

Dancy rock band Future Generations, hail-ing from Brooklyn, will be joined by fellow Brooklyn band Plastic Picnic and local Joe Burke at Karl Hall in downtown Wilkes-Barre on Friday evening. The show comes as part of a small tour leading up to Future Generations’ second full-length release, “Landscape,” which is slated to come out in Sep-tember.
“Landscape” was pro-duced by Justin Gerrish, who has worked with bands such as Vampire Weekend and Hamilton Leithauser, groups near to Future Generations’ hearts.
“It was really cool for us because after looking at what he’s worked on … especially the production of the drums and vocals on those records are real-ly interesting,” explained Devon Sheridan, who plays bass and bass syn-thesizer for Future Gener-ations. “It was a perfect, perfect match for us.”
The band brought a couple years worth of demos featuring its brand of electronic indie rock music (also described by Sheridan as synth-pop) to the studio, but a fair amount of “Landscape” was written while there.
“It was super collabora-tive. All five of us were involved and contributed in meaningful ways. It was a very cathartic and
creative experience for us,” Sheridan said. “It was really nice to just go in there and achieve a songwriting process that we could feel really good about.”
The members of the group — also comprised of Eddie Gore on vocals and keys, Eric Grossman on guitar, Mike Sansevere on synth, and Dylan Wells manning percussion — met while attending Ford-ham University.
Future Generations was
officially born in 2016 when it settled on its name and fifth member, Wells. Prior to its initial start in 2011, however, the band had a far more local tie.
Sheridan is originally from Scranton, an alum-nus of Scranton Prep and West Side Middle School, and has lived in New York since starting college.
Sheridan is excited to be reunited on the stage with his good friend, Burke, and to return to the music scene he grew up with.
“It’s just exciting to be playing in NEPA … it’s been a while, so I don’t know what the scene is like, but hopefully these small venues like Karl Hall can continue to thrive and get good acts to come in,” he said. “It’s nice to kind of be a part of the NEPA music scene.”

In an interview with Vanity Fair, Dave Long-streth, lead singer of the Dirty Projectors, said that putting out two records in less than a year and a half “felt manic.”
Based on the band’s latest project, “Lamp Lit Prose,” that mania really comes through.
That’s a complement, by the way.
The Dirty Projectors have always been on the weird fringes of indie rock and art pop.
Their songs have always been structured like standard pop songs, but Longstreth packs his songs to the brim with oddball melodies that grow more and more intriguing with repeated listens.
This record takes that peculiar sensibility and turns it up to the max.
Featuring the backing vocals of Amber Mark, the album’s fourth track, “I Feel Energy,” is an absolute standout.
The track has, like Longstreth said, a manic sort of energy that per-meates the whole song. Existing somewhere on a spectrum between disco-tinged funk and baroque pop — and no, I didn’t think such a spec-trum existed either — this song is just so much fun. It’s groovy, the kind of track that is difficult
not to dance to.The chorus on “I Feel
Energy” is ridiculously catchy. Longstreth uses his unusual timbre to quickly and jarringly soar to a high note, while Mark takes her time to get to the same note. It makes for an interesting dichotomy.
The track’s breezy and experimental use of horns and string instru-ments also calls to mind pop songs of decades ago, but this song is still firmly planted in this decade.
Longstreth also push-es his energy into com-pelling folk sounds, like on the following song, “Zombie Conqueror.” Featuring the vocals of Empress Of, this song feels like a rock-infused approach to traditional, almost Renaissance-era English folk songs, call-
ing to mind the work of fellow folk oddball Rich-ard Dawson. “Zombie Conqueror” is an end-lessly compelling track to me, thanks to Long-streth’s revitalization of a very old sound — but I will admit I have a bias, with a fascination over folk sounds of antiquity.
But it’s not all old-school sounds. The opening track, “Right Now,” featuring, of all people, Syd from hip-hop act Odd Future and its R&B offshoot The Internet, is a warbling, angular R&B song with tinges of folk, or perhaps the other way around. The track makes for a beautiful introduction for the rest of the record, introducing the stutter-ing sound that the band explores throughout the remainder of the record.
It’s this stuttering, lurching sound that I find most compelling about the songs on here. While most speed by at normal pop-song speeds, sounds suddenly pop in and out that are just as quickly squelched.
Throughout, “Lamp Lit Prose” ends up feel-ing much more jagged than the average pop record. But it could be easy to miss this jagged-ness, making the record rife for repeated listens. Dedicated listeners will continue to find new things to appreciate with more time spent on this one.
Dirty Projectors’ latest is fun indie rock experimentation

Jeremy PetrachonisWhile I was in col-
lege, I got into an argu-ment with a friend, and he ended up saying that I tend to cut people out of my life.
It struck a chord with me. I was offended someone close to me would suggest it, and also didn’t believe it to be true. It’s something that I still think about years after the fact, and lately has caused me to reconsider my anger back then.
Looking back, I real-ized I wasn’t offended because of the accuracy of the statement, but the implication that it’s a bad thing.
I don’t want to sound like a cold person, but I don’t think there is a problem with removing toxicity from your life.
Whether it’s people, bad habits or needing to change your environ-ment for your mental health, that is a good thing.
As we grow older and experience new envi-ronments like college, working life or a move, we make realizations about what is good for our mental health and what is not. I’ve used this platform before to talk about my upbring-
ing and my parents’ divorce, which was caused by my father’s affair. I don’t want to re-hash that, but it taught me an
unfortunate lesson at a young age: Some people are toxic. And no mat-ter how close you are to them, it’s better to leave them out of your life.
So, as a 17-year-old having to cut my own father out of my life, I guess I didn’t have any issue with doing the same to other toxic people and other toxic behaviors.
You see, long before my father had an affair, our relationship was nothing short of rocky. And without turning this into a therapy ses-sion, even if my parents had stayed together, I can’t see my relation-ship with him being much different than it is now.
And to me, that’s not a bad thing.
I consider myself very lucky to be surrounded by the people I have in my life. I have a wonder-
ful and loving husband, supportive family and in-laws and, in my com-pletely biased opinion, some of the best friends in the whole world. All things considered, I’m doing pretty well for myself.
But, it took a while to get here. Not just with the people in my life, but with bad habits and living arrangements. I had to work very hard to get myself into a space where I felt con-tent.
What I’m trying to say is don’t let anyone tell you how to live your life or give you grief for your life choices. If you think cutting drinking out of your life is good for you, don’t let some-one try to talk you out of it. They don’t know what’s best for you. Just like when health brands tell you to rid your body of toxins, sometimes you need to remove tox-ins from your life.
At the end of the day, the only person you have to answer to is yourself, and only you know what is best for your well-being.

outdoorswin you accept this recap?Who’s ready for some Buffalove?
By Dj Eberle And Brigid Edmunds- Lawrencedjeberle@timesleader.combedmunds@timesleader.com
There are a lot of good places to start with this week’s recap.
We should probably start with Tia and the bombshell she dropped just before the rose ceremony. But you know what? After weeks of anticipation, I want to start with Buffalove. I mean Buffalo.
With Jason being from Buffalo, I have been waiting for the Buffalo Bills to finally grace ‘The Bachelorette.’ It finally happened Monday night.
It was brief, but it finally happened. The Bills logo showed up on the side of the Anchor Bar during Jason’s hometown date, but it was all I needed.
Side note: They should have went to Duff’s or Mighty Taco. But I digress.
For those of you who know me, Buffalo holds a special place in my heart. My parents both went to UB, and I’m a pretty big fan of both the Bills and Sabres. In fact, people in the Times Leader/Weekender newsroom are convinced I’m actually from Buffalo. I’m not. I’m from Albany, but close enough.
So there were a lot a familiar sights in Jason’s
date, like the famous Anchor Bar and the HarborCenter, which is where the Sabres train. All in all, it doesn’t get much more Buffalo than a wing-eating contest.
Oh, and Jason had a pretty great week too. He’s not going to win this season, but he’d probably make for a good Bachelor.
BRIGID: That Buffalo- nian Jason sure did have a great date with Becca. I actually liked their date. I would love to just go eat wings for a date. I actually think Jason is being set up to be the next Bachelor. Not only was he great, but his family seemed very open to this process, which is key for any future contestant.
DJ: So back to Tia.I get that Tia likely
had no idea how Colton’s relationship with Becca was going — I mean, you could see it on her face how shocked she was that Colton was still around — but considering she knows both parties pretty well, she should have known that they’re not the best pair on paper and kept her mouth shut.
I understand that Tia feels the need to lay all the cards out in front of Becca, but she already had her chance. Weeks ago. And botched it.
Ultimately it didn’t matter, and I’m pretty sure Tia and Becca are fine, but it was such a bad look for Tia. She’s been made out to be a
villain in all of this, but if there was anybody to blame in this, it was Colton. Until Monday’s episode.
I’ve been a big supporter of Tia through all of her questionable decisions, dating back to the last season of “The Bachelor” when she threw Bekah M. under the bus. But come on, Tia.
I think I know where you stand in this Brigid, but if you’re in Tia’s shoes, what do you do?
BRIGID: I actually don’t think Colton is to blame in any of this.
Becca asked Tia weeks ago if she had feelings for him, and she said she was fine with this. There was always the chance that Becca would fall in love with him, so I just don’t think it’s fair for her to steal that feeling away.
This just reaffirms my opinion on Tia, or the producers have done a great job since last season to make her look as bad as possible.
DJ: After touching on Colton and Jason, I’ve saved the best for last. And when I mean “best,” I mean Becca’s favorite suitors, because Garrett’s probably not that great of a guy. Blake is, though.At least it seems that way.
But despite Jason’s best efforts, it’s between Garrett and Blake. And I’ve always felt the fact that Becca forgot Jason’s name weeks ago is telling. Sure, there’s a lot of
guys at the start of the season, but if she really liked Jason from the beginning, she’d remember his name.
Garrett’s probably in the lead, ahead of Blake, heading into fantasy suites, but didn’t you find it odd that Garrett got the last rose?
BRIGID: I was shocked by that, for no other reason than the final rose lost all its suspense. Once it was between Garrett and Colton, it was obvious Colton was going home.
I mean, Blake had a great date, don’t get me wrong; it’s just obvious she’s going to always pick Garrett.
Although, I’m not too sure about the ranking of the final three men.
DJ: Once again, I thought Blake made the biggest moves in the episode, but the chemistry between Garrett and Becca is so much stronger.
Either way, they’re the final two, right? And is Garrett still in the lead?
BRIGID: I think Garrett is still in the lead, but I’m less confident in the race to be the runner- up. Jason is making some major moves, and I think his chemistry with Becca is stronger than her connection with Blake.

Allman Brothers Band in 1989. I’ve always appreci-ated him for that.
“I’m really glad Dickey and Gregg were in com-munication before Gregg
passed. I think it’s some-thing we all wanted to see happen. The Allman Brothers journey has been a long one, but I’m very thankful to be part of that extended fam-ily and be part of it for as long as I was. That music, starting when I
was 9 years old, until this very moment, has always remained some of the greatest music I’ve ever heard.”
That catalog will be celebrated at various points throughout the weekend — including when Allman Brothers Band progeny Devon Allman and Duane Betts collaborate on Saturday — but the Peach will offer music for all tastes from the New Orleans
stylings of Dumpstap-hunk to the superlative songwriting of Anders Osborne & Jackie Greene to the soulful rock ‘n’ roll of Haley Jane & The Primates.
Even Northeastern Pennsylvania-forged acts will be represented as JP Biondo and Gatos Blancos are slated for sets on side stages while currently-on-hiatus blue-grass ensemble Cabinet is scheduled to take the main stage in what is billed as its only perfor-mance of 2018.
“I think one of the coolest things about Peach Fest is that it appeals to a certain
type of music fan, the type who takes music very seriously and who looks at music as being
a big part of their lives,” Haynes said. “They embrace the old music that is in the spirit of the starting point of Peach Fest, but also any new music that’s created with similar spirit. Music fans like that — and I con-sider myself that kind of music fan — are always looking for something that comes along and shakes things up and doesn’t adhere to norms, and resembles the music we grew up with and love.”

GILLIAN REINARTZAGE: 26LOCATION: LEHIGH VALLEYWHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE CONCERT? THIS IS A VERY HARD CHOICE. I’M TORN BETWEEN TOOL AND DIE ANTWOORD.WHAT WOULD YOUR THEME SONG BE? “DON’T STOP ME NOW” BY QUEEN
THIS WEEK: July 18 through 24
