WE SCENE IT >>>

Weekly Volcano hired shooter Steve Dunkelberger hovered around McKinley Hill last night.

First, he dropped in on Camp 6's Tacoma Social party at the Top of Tacoma Bar and Café. Dunkelberger found an even mix of Top regulars and Top newbies who came for the social gathering centered on fashion, the arts and a love of the 253. It was a thing of beauty: jean jackets and tats merged with ties, tight jeans and Buddy Holly glasses for a surge of Tacoma collaborative goodness.

The ruckus and throaty band Overboard found fans in both camps.

Having dutifully done his damage, our hired gun darted to The New Frontier Lounge to catch the last few songs of Ghost Writer's sweat-filled rockabilly set before The Brotherhood of the Black Squirrel emerged from their cave for another trip through roots- and blues-based experimental rock and roll.

PBR was the drink of the night.
