WEDNESDAY READING: Went to see BRAD and a STUCK ON A BUS show broke out

Before last night, the last time I saw BRAD was the two shows the band did at the Troubadour in 2002 or 2003. As you're no doubt aware of, Brad is made up of Pearl Jam guitarist Stone Gossard, drummer Regan Hagar of Malfunkshun, singer Shawn Smith of Pigeonhed and

Quincy Henry, Q-Dot professionally and on stage, knows a thing or two about the music industry. He's been around the hip-hop block, so to speak. An MC and producer, after crafting a surprisingly slick demo in his dorm room, Henry left college at Central Washington University in 2003 for the allure

LAST SLICE OF BUTTER >>> Thursday, June 10 In terms of ferocity alone, Seattle duo Last Slice of Butter is some kind of champion. Despite consisting of only bass and drums (the Death From Above 1979 formula, if you will), they're capable of stirring up more racket than just about anyone in

Sean Alexander is no stranger to the Weekly Volcano. Just a few weeks ago, for example, Heather Thomas Loepp profiled Alexander the artist, known for - among other things - his maniacally intricate sketches, the sadly defunct but modestly legendary Helm Gallery, and a fondness for conversational f-bombs. This week Alexander

NON-STOP HIP-HOP: Reason to celebrate

It is an awesome thing to have a music, arts and community festival so aptly named to represent a city.  Example: Tacoma's Grit City Fest.  The Grit City Fest celebrates and showcases all things Tacoma, and why not?  Tacoma is probably the most blue-collar, most diverse, most "hood" and most notorious

A call to arms

Tacoma is a city that exists in an almost constant state of flux.  It's a choose-your-own-adventure that unfortunately requires the participation of a bunch of people who can be, at times, too prideful.  Because we are in that gray area of being not quite a big city, but much bigger
