It's a new week, which means it's time for a new installment of Bobble Tiki's South Sound music news and notes column. Without further ado, let's get rolling. ... Wow. Just wow. Bobble Tiki long ago established himself as a self-promoting whore, so this pitch should come as no surprise, but

Since really wonderful summertime food comes off the grill, the idea that chilled white wine is a good general summer drink becomes nonsensical. More often, room-temperature red wine should be the libation of choice. The marriage of a delicately gamey grilled leg of lamb with a complex yet fruity Pinot

Like a crow that is dark, intelligent and resourceful - schooling its children in the ways of life, so do Wolves in the Throne Room school their listeners in the ways of earthy black metal.

If you don't have kids of your own, playing miniature golf is not much more than a nostalgia trip. Fond memories of a round with Mom and Dad and going out for ice cream afterward provides its appeal, not the challenge of putting the ball in the holes. The Harmon

For some of us, karaoke is all about either watching or being drink-sodden disasters - specifically the kind poorly belting out ballads to a hooting crowd of strangers. For the non-voyeurs and the non-exhibitionists, the song's the thing, and Harlequin Productions "Forbidden 12th Night" karaoke party should be a song-centric

Dear Tacoma. I've spoken to a lot of artists lately who feel a little underappreciated. Well, underappreciated is the wrong word. More like taken advantage of. I know Tacoma sells itself as an arts town. We have several "world class" museums, whatever that means; one hard-working arts council; a few struggling non-profits

The picture said it all. Hanging in a hallway next to a conference room in the Western Air Defense Sector facility, the painting depicts the April 19, 1775, skirmish between colonial and British troops just outside of Lexington.
