Hundred reasons to be happy

Hundred reasons to be happy

A year ago Gregory Fricker was damn near on his knees dealing with life. If you told him last September that not only would the former Army soldier become an artist, but this Wednesday's 100th Monkey Party tile artist, he would have laughed in your face. He's laughing for a different

The BOMB squad arrives

Let's face it; we have to admire the self-confidence of any group willing to call its production BOMB, even if it is a clever acronym (Best of Modern Broadway). Such faith in a production directed, choreographed, and performed by kids-including the band!-borders on foolhardy. I've stated my reluctance to dump

BITE US: Taste of the Oly Farmers Market, Big Wheel Steakhouse and Lounge to open

Big Wheel Steakhouse and Lounge I've been watching for signs of life below the Big Wheel Steakhouse sign in a strip mall off Steele Street for months. Building owner Steven Kang took over the endeavor after the original would-be restaurateur defaulted, leaving the restaurant and lounge unfinished. Kang went looking for

Let the sun shine in

Ten years ago, a then-17-year-old Jonathan Deschamps started recording songs at home, experimenting as he went along, pushing himself to learn a variety of instruments. In a move worthy of L.A. weirdo Ariel Pink, he let the unreleased material pile up, resulting in a vast back-catalog of unheard compositions. "For years,

Choices are some of the only real power individuals have in this small world.  Choosing to win, lose, take risks, lay back; these choices determine our many different routes in the short lives we're offered.  For Hill-B, aka Hillary Butler, a native of Lakewood by way California's Bay Area and a

JAPANTHER >>> Friday, Aug 20 When you think of art rock, bands like King Crimson and Genesis or Sonic Youth and latter-day Talk Talk tend to come to mind. The common thread that runs through most these bands is a deadly seriousness. It's, you know, "art." It needs to be serious. And

Sleuth to Seuss

Grit City's upcoming theater season is cram-packed with interesting shows, so with no further - (See what I did there?) Tacoma Little Theatre opens the year Aug. 27 with Anthony Shaffer's Sleuth, an ingenious two-hand thriller in which an aging mystery writer and an ambitious Casanova match murderous wits.  Tacoma playwright

Broadway's open-air art gallery

I checked out a few more installations from the Spaceworks Tacoma Artscapes project starting with The Blood That Runs Through Us...an Ongoing Dialogue by Mary Coss, June Sekiguchi and Pamela Hom at 950 Pacific Ave. It is fabulous. It obliquely addresses the theme of lifecycles, leaving much for the viewer

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... As they say, some like it hot. Bobble Tiki on the other hand, well, he doesn't like it hot. In fact, Bobble

WEDNESDAY READING: Geoff's third nickname

I had known Kelly Wheeler for less than five minutes when he saddled me with the nickname "Meat."  It was Valentine's Day, 1999. I was trying out for Jimmy Paulson's new outfit, New American Shame. Paulson always seemed to end up with record deals, and NAS had already been making

King's Deli and Grocery

I sense a theme forming here. Small, independent, neighborhood grocery stores are getting my undivided attention these days, so as not to abuse the genre, this will be the last in my unintentional "series" for a while. It's clear these little stores fascinate me and wield more power than you might

Tacoma Metal Arts Center meets Black Sabbath's "Paranoid"

There's heavy metal, and there's heavy metal. And then there's heavy metal that's meant to be written with a capital H and M and a jagged Halloween font with scary skulls as the a's and a devil hanging off the y - all circled 666 times with some sort of
