SLOUCHING TOWARD UTOPIA: Art brutal

So I did it. I saw the Banksy movie at The Grand Cinema. Exit Through the Gift Shop was a work of genius. I think. For those who haven't seen it, the film - which recently ended its run at The Grand - follows the escapades of the indie art world's

WEDNESDAY READING: It's the summer time of life

It has been a year since death entered my life. I had, of course, come to terms with the possibility of my own demise a couple years prior, which is certainly an encounter with the finality. But being left behind by someone I had a future with, whose being was

BITE US: Noodle Bar, Tacoma Boys, and NorthWest Vintage Wine Bar

Pacific Grill pop-up Blame the economy's downturn. Or blame creative thinking. Whatever the reason, pop-up restaurants - temporary restaurants in private homes, other restaurants, galleries, street corners, abandoned buildings and, hopefully, the Weekly Volcano World Headquarters lunchroom - seem to be all the rage, at least in

The art of aural assault

When I catch up with Vancouver, B.C. punk duo Nü Sensae, they're in Southern California, making some tour purchases at Wal-Mart while their van is being serviced. "Hang on," says drummer Daniel Pitout. "I'm buying a Barbie doll." Nü Sensae are such a relentlessly hardcore band that them copping to buying

Camp Out comes clean

For a band, escaping the past can become harder than is quite necessary. The Decemberists had to release two or three albums before they could brush off those Neutral Milk Hotel comparisons, though perhaps still not even completely. Of course, some bands desperately depend on those associations, i.e. the appalling

NON-STOP HIP-HOP: Dog-eat-dog world

The worlds of hip-hop and entertainment are full of illusions: mirages and images of luxury, riches and material wealth.  Girls wearing next to nothing, men with money to burn and the most lavish of lavish lifestyles.  It's not like that. I am picturing the real lifestyle of hip-hoppers in the Pacific

Do the evolution

It's that time again. Time to celebrate all the beauty and creativity and funk and goodness that exists between the cracks of urbanity. There are a whole lot of festivals in Tacoma. But only one Urban Art Festival. On the surface, this may look like any other Urban Art Fest

MUSIC PICKS: Congratulations, DoughKain, The Fucking Eagles, Death Valley Murder Squad

CONGRATULATIONS >>> Thursday, June 24 Congratulations are a hard band to track down. As I pursued them this week, to no avail, I started to think they might not even exist. Sort of like when I took those pills that one time and I was convinced Tricky was not a real

Happy together

Properly speaking, Harlequin Productions' Sixties Kicks isn't musical theater, it's a concert. Five talented young people backed by a killer five-piece rock band sing 37 hits of the 1960s. I'm not a music critic, but I don't have to be Lester Bangs to give a thumbs-up to the source material. In

Brunch, a new play by local actor, director, and playwright Elliot Weiner, tells the story of three friends; three friends with a long-standing tradition of monthly brunch together, interrupted by a sequence of new additions, ranging from a pregnant girlfriend to a psychiatrist. ... Now here's the trouble with the play:

Albertsons on 38th Street

In this week's Grocery Stories column I am slightly referencing immigration, illegal or otherwise, which can have a large impact on our economy. Clearly the Albertsons on South 38th Street in Tacoma recognizes this because they are trying to appeal to the Hispanic community on the Eastside. There are several
