Saturday, Sept. 3: "A Picture of Life"

Who's up for a gospel stage play? How about a gospel stage play with the tagline: "Sex, drugs, rock & roll ... and Jesus Christ? Regardless of your situation, he fits into all equations." While we're not sure where Jesus fits into the Pythagorean theorem (other than he obviously created

WHAT'S THE WORD?: Leon Swanks, Deluxe Beatz and Tak Patron

I love seeing young artists grow, mature and polish their sound - artist coming into their own. A few years ago when I first heard Lockcity I knew dude had a nice flow. He was spitting some smooth-tricky street shit at the time.  Although he was dope, he didn't quite jump

My night starts off with the cleanest of intentions. Deciding to stay dry for a weekend, I try to visit Applini's Two Clean and Sober Club in Puyallup. I simply want to grab a virgin daiquiri, surround myself with a sober crowd and clear my head.  A weekend without the

Wednesday, Sept. 7: The Rusty Cleavers

Something seems so right about the marriage between punk rock and the washboard. Skidding your hand along the grooves of a washboard elicits nothing more than a visceral rattle - a crude affront to the idea of percussion and what it means to be a member of a band. Punk

Saturday, Sept. 3: Lips

The word "lips" is more evocative than most. It puts one immediately in mind of intimacy, or connecting with another individual in a uniquely personal manner. It is from one's lips that words and ideas are formed and spread, from lips to ears to lips to ears. It is appropriate,

Friday, Sept. 2: Weird Tigers

No good Tacoman worth their salt passes up a chance at a "private party," even if it's just being billed as such for legal reasons. More importantly, no good Tacoman wastes an opportunity to catch outdoor late-summer barbecue action backed by bands Hands of Toil, Weird Tigers (members of Blanco

Saturday, Sept. 3: Oh Dear!

The music of Oh Dear! can't be described as anything other than indie rock. It seems to take cues from the various touchstones of the genre, moving from the choppy guitars of Modest Mouse on through the beatific blandness of Minus the Bear, and even approaching the sprightly guitar work
