UNDERWATER HOCKEY. As a spectator sport, this is not very popu- lar — the only other way to see the action is to get into the pool yourself. As a diver or swimmer, though, it can be a fun way to build endurance. San Diego Underwater Hockey Meet-Up is a group of over 170 underwater-hockey players, and they are looking for more members. The group holds prac- tices twice weekly, Tuesdays and Thursdays, at the Fit Athletic Club. Waterfront, page 44.

PROTOMARTYR. The Detroit quar- tet brings urban poetics to post-punk à la Hold Steady’s heady alt-rock rants. They even look a bit like that Midwest band — unassuming everymen — even though they’ve got the ears of rock writers from Michigan to Madrid, including our own Dryw Keltz. Dryw talks to frontman Joe Casey about the band’s beginnings and last year’s sophomore set, Agent Intellect, in advance of Wednesday’s show at Soda Bar. Blurt, page 53.
A WAR. Matthew Lickona talks with writer-director Tobias Lindholm about his depiction of one soldier’s battles, both exterior and interior. Movies, page 65.
AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF A RECOVERING SKINHEAD The Anti-Defamation League, in
D’CARLOS. Ian Pike makes a return to barbecue and discovers tender beef succulence at a horse-themed restau- rant in Ramona. Feast, page 48.
