MUSICAL GOODNESS IN STORE IN PRINT & ONLINE >>>
Biff! Boom! Bam!
As you've no doubt heard and seen by now, the Weekly Volcano's Super Best of Tacoma 2011 issue hit streets today, quite possibly the finest 28-pages of T-Town related print and pictures ever produced. Or, at the very least, it's a pretty spectacular issue to thumb through on your lunch break.
Despite all the Super Best of Tacoma goodness packed inside, we didn't neglect the music. It's not our style. We wouldn't do that. You've come to depend on the Volcano for the best local music in the area, and yet again this week we've delivered.
Here's a sneak peek at the musical goodness in store in print and online ...
THE WAREHOUSE'S SUMMER HOUSE SHOW SERIES
In the early part of 2010, the popular underground venue known as the Warehouse was forced to shut down by the City of Tacoma. The residents of the Warehouse proved intrepid in their desire to bring exciting shows to the people of Tacoma, regardless of whether they had a permanent, proper venue in which to hold them. They - Adam Ydstie, Katie Lowery, and Doug Stoeckicht - became a collective of show promoters, and continue to book shows around town under the moniker of the Warehouse.
In June the Warehouse started a series of house shows that will run until the end of the summer. Two shows have taken place so far, with two more to come. - Rev. Adam McKinney
DAMAGE REPORT: FLASH STEPS DOWN AT HELL'S KITCHEN
When I first met legendary headman of Hell's Kitchen, Ken "Flash" Connell, I immediately knew he was a force to be reckoned with. Not only was he in a killer punk band, A.M.Q.A., he was a fixture at the premier Tacoma live music venue - the world-famous Community World Theater, run by Mr. Jim May. ... - Jason McKibbin
WHAT'S THE WORD: THE ACADEMY AND CRAZE'8
The most exciting new group to emerge this year out of Tacoma has been the Academy. The crew quickly came onto the scene thanks to the veteran status of some of the members. $krilla met Eee-tree, Ghetto, Doe-Lo Rossi, Mistah Mac, Charlotte Smoot, Criss, Eli, Chad Larson and Jordan Pike at the audio-engineering program at Bates Technical College, and the rest is quickly becoming history. Some of the members MC, some produce, some sing, some play instruments and some just work the boards. The Academy is totally self-contained and are in their own zone. The crew stole the show this summer at Tacoma Hempfest where they had the crowd near the stage dancing. - Josh Rizeberg
Fences' debut self-titled LP is almost uncomfortable in its confessional style. Listening to it feels like stumbling across a diary, flipping through as each page reveals more embarrassing secrets and painful regrets. - Rev. AM
BETTER LIVING: L.A. Lungs, The Gentleman Gluttons, Ty Segall and Nucular Aminals
PLUS: Concert Alert
News and entertainment from Joint Base Lewis-McChord’s most awesome weekly newspapers - The Ranger, Northwest Airlifter and Weekly Volcano.
