MUSICALLY SPEAKING >>>
Ah, Monday. So we meet again, my nemesis. Ripping me off the couch and out of my weekend "leisure attire," you rudely thrust me back out into the world, shouting things like, "Make something of your goddamn life!" and "Stop being so worthless!"
I hate you, Monday.
But you're unavoidable. So I carry on.
Musically speaking, here's a look at what the Weekly Volcano has on tap this week and where to find it.
APACHE CHIEF: They're young. They rock. And they'll be at this year's EMP Sound Off! competition in February. The Weekly Volcano met up with the band in a rain soaked alley in Tacoma for this week's cover story, discovering what it's like to be an upstart band in Tacoma's vibrant, young music scene. Then, we got some perspective from Makeup Monsters, a band familiar with the hype Apache Chief will garner from Sound Off! Should make for a fun read, and it'll hit streets on Thursday.
DREW GROW AND PASTORS' WIVES: Coming straight from Portland with plenty of T-town history, Drew Grow and Pastors' Wives will impregnate the Warehouse this weekend with Grow's poignantly hopeful songsmanship. You don't have to be a hipster to show up, but you'll be a lot hipper for the experience if you do. The Weekly Volcano chatted with Grow last week in preparation for his Warehouse performance on Saturday, and that interview will post in two parts here on Spew. The first interview segment will hit the web Wednesday, and a second installment will follow Friday. Look out for both.
FIRESIGN THEATRE: The Weekly Volcano's Rev. Adam McKinney jumped for joy upon learning the aging comedy troupe will be stopping in Tacoma this week for two shows on Sunday at the Theatre on the Square. He was so giddy, in fact, that we let him interview the Firesign jokesters for Thursday's paper. Remember to check it out later this week.
THE VARIETY HOUR: The band has a new CD, and they're talking to us. Get the lowdown on the band's CD release show Friday at The New Frontier Lounge in Thursday's edition of the Weekly Volcano.
