Coffin Break

Coffin Break

For a long time, the only Coffin Break songs I had in my possession were "Kill The President," and covers of "Free Bird" and "We Can Work It Out." I had no idea where these stood in their popular songs – I was younger than 10 in their heyday of

SLOUCHING TOWARD UTOPIA: The pruning process

So I've heard the rumors. Tacoma's art scene is in a slump. Some say it's dead. Really? Well, yeah. These aren't common haters. These are longtime supporters of the local art scene. But summer is here. That means a lot of outdoor festivals and hefty events like the upcoming Grit

Reality TV show about bicycles based in Tacoma

What you first must understand about TW, AKA Thomas William Smith, owner and proprietor of Renegade Muscle, is that he's the true embodiment of a character. The man talks a mile a minute, has devoted his life to the restoration and customization of vintage bicycles, and seriously digs calendar girls.

TIKI LOGIC: Vicci Martinez, Dirty Hollywood, Honeybear and the Ventures

It's a new week, which means it's time for a new installment of Bobble Tiki's South Sound music news and notes column. Without further ado, let's get rolling. Bobble Tiki's never been afraid of redundancies. For years, Bobble Tiki has heard his bosses fight against it, both in print inside the

On rocking faces off

Recently, I watched a television program called Seven Ages of Rock. Among the many issues I had with the show (only seven ages of rock, ending with '90s Britpop?), chief among them was the coverage of late '80s, early '90s American alternative music. Only R.E.M. and Nirvana were discussed.

KELLI SCHAEFFER >>> Friday, June 18 Sure, you could call it a little redundant. If you're a dick. Or, you could just reap the benefits. It seems that the powers behind bringing sweet-ass bands to town and putting on shows at The Loft at Urban Grace (many of the same faces behind

NON-STOP HIP-HOP: Picking up the slack

The public school system is failing. Failing the community and students - failing its dedicated instructors, too.  With cuts in arts, music programs and extracurricular activities designed to enhance the ability of students to think creatively, artistically and independently, it's no surprise student performance is less than impressive. Teachers, family environment and

BITE US: SideBar Bistro, Sputnik Donuts

SideBar Bistro A new restaurant has arrived on Tacoma Avenue South, in Red Kelly's old spot near the County-City Building. The restaurant is the SideBar Bistro - note the legal theme - with cherry wood furniture, slate floors, fixtures that look as though they came from Restoration Hardware and three meals

Talking about single shows is so 2009. In present day Tacoma - and by "present day Tacoma" I mean life here over the past two weeks - it's all about quantity. Who gets excited about single shows anymore? Not me. My pulse doesn't even rise unless an event means dedicating
