• Believe it or not, the Volcano's Matt Driscoll originally turned Bobble Tiki on to Mom's Rocket, a band hailing from Olympia, Wash., but about as unapologetically rock (no art about it) as you can get. In an awesome way. At the time of Bobble Tiki's introduction, Mom's Rocket was the "house band" for KJR 950 AM, a sports-talk station. Naturally, they also happened to be big sports fans. Something tells Bobble Tiki they'll be pulling for the Packers on Sunday, like all good Hawk fans. Driscoll interviewed bassist Randy Keller at the time. Check it out in Bobble Tiki's column. – Bobble Tiki

• Roughly three weeks ago, Portlander Drew Grow (of the Pastors' Wives fame) was in a devastating automobile accident, which left him saddled with piles of medical bills, including costs covering a stay in the hospital, surgery and the months of rehabilitation he will likely need. In order to help soften the blow of the hospital bill's crude insult to injury, five benefit shows have been arranged in the Pacific Northwest, and the Peabody Waldorf Gallery will be host to Tacoma's contribution tonight. – Rev.

The man's appeared in everything from The Anna Nicole Show to the rockumentary Anvil!. Click here for a survey of some of his other notable onscreen appearances. – Jason Baxter
