Tell me if he's told you this one before: It's around 1979 and Dan Long is working at a movie theater in North Seattle that specializes in screening 70 mm prints. Sitting in the projection booth with Long is Francis Ford Coppola. You see, Coppola is repping Roman Polanski's Tess in

Essential Tacoma karaoke venues

Years before I became a karaoke host, I was just an avid fan of this complicated art form. Largely sloppy, sometimes obnoxious, frequently transcendently goofy, occasionally just transcendent, karaoke is a uniquely egalitarian way for people to live out minor fantasies while also blowing off steam.

When it came time to choose an album for this review, Freeway and Jake One's new effort seemed to be a no-brainer, based on album art alone (the CD case is stylized as a wallet, the liner notes as a roll of cash).  With album art on my mind, though,

Ladies royally pampered

(Ranger Staff) - It was a Valentine's Day to remember for 700+ military spouses and girlfriends with loved ones deployed overseas.  Instead of staying home with lonely hearts, they were treated by the Ranger and Airlifter newspapers to a free day of pampering in Lacey at St. Martin's University.

HIP-HOP IN THE 25360: Zulu Nation Anniversary

I will say this much... Seattle is quickly - and I mean with a quickness - becoming a model of how to do things right in the Hip-Hop community.  Of course this is a blanket statement and does not apply to each and every Seattleite, but it speaks to the

Friday, Feb. 19: Where Sails Meet Rails

When I met the entire band for coffee at the Mandolin Café last week, they told me New Frontier Lounge owner Neil Harris - whose club has played host to the band on a number of occasions, and will do so again Friday - has made a habit out of

Propped up on still heavy riffs - though perhaps more thoughtful than you may remember from your grungy youth - there's a reason Floater has the power to truck on. And, no, it has nothing to do with the great weed in Eugene. It has more to do with the

At 5:20 p.m. I'm on my way home from a difficult day at work. Being the obsessed foodie I am, I naturally turn to food for comfort. Dave and wife Anita opened Thrill of the Grill, a cheerful, updated 1950s-style burger joint on Tacoma Avenue, last November. They began serving breakfast this

A snapshot of history

What a welcome difference a decade can make.  When Stop Kiss debuted at New York's Joseph Papp Public Theater in 1998, CurtainUp praised it as "thoroughly modern."  Only half a generation later, it strikes me as almost thoroughly dated, a grim reminder of a more homophobic time.  Stage artists
