A boyfriend of mine once rode down a hill at Mach 4 in an over-sized garbage can. It made me think: What kind of future can I have with a man who willingly participates in "Jackass"-inspired stunts? Even more pressing, what kind of man willingly climbs inside a garbage can? Needless to say, we're not together anymore.
I might be thinking the same thoughts when Ryan Mercer performs freestyle motorcycle acrobatics outside the new Cedarwood club Friday, Aug. 25.  Dude, why?  Isn't there a safer way to celebrate its grand opening that night?  Let's do acrobatic shots on the bar.  Hmm, not much safer.
Oh well, Desired Response Theory, Temperedcast, Weight of the World, Deadfall and The Curse of Western Culture will welcome the former Mothership/Club Atlantis/some bingo club I can't remember space back into play the metal way.
I hear they're giving away Tool tickets too.
Check it.
Friday, Aug. 25, 6:30 p.m. motorcycle show, 8 p.m. music, 21+, $7, The Cedarwood, 7404 Pacific Hwy. E., Milton, (253) 232-5438. â€" Suzy Stump
