STEVE DUNKELBERGER: A NIGHT IN THE 253 >>>
One of the reasons I dig my gig at the Weekly Volcano is I get to rub shoulders with interesting people. I speak of the fine people of Tacoma rather than the rag's staff, of course.
The weekend was shoulder rubbing over load.
I hopped around Tacoma Saturday absorbing its art and music. The marathon began at Kulture Lab for visual art, artist conversations and-quite frankly - witnessing women barely dressed for Mardi Gras. I was not disappointed on any of those counts. Sons of Ivan rocked the Lab's balcony as I floated like a wanna-be social butterfly.
Next, I dropped by Jazzbones to catch Tim Reynolds of Dave Mathews fame doing what he does best. Wow, women do so love their red wine and dancing. I enjoyed myself.
On the other scale of the musical spectrum, I headed over to Hell's Kitchen to see Agent Orange. If loud is good, the band was great. The crowd surge came and went like a gigolo at a Sting concert.
The night ended with a quick stop at Chopstix to see the battle of the pianos.
Off to bed at 2 a.m. and it was rise and shine at 6 a.m. to walk Chambers Bay during sunrise.
All in a day's work at one of the best alt rags in the free world.
