Dear Dickheads

I think it’s time to address the skatepark etiquette column and make the following statement: “Dave Amador is the Rush Limbaugh of the SLC skate scene.” 

Del the Funky Homosapien

Del, Deltron, The Funky (or Funkee) Homosapien. Maybe too many names for one man, but he wears them all with panache ... “You can just call me Del, man.” 

Kristin Hersh

Kristin Hersh is a super force of nature. My own introduction to Hersh was in 1987 when my sister came running into the house waving a video cassette containing the music video to the song “Fish” by Hersh’s first band Throwing Muses.  I watched it and I was harpooned.

The Gallery Roll

One event clearly illustrates the community aspect of those who love cycling in Salt Lake City and, subsequently, captures the spirit of the entire month.  Mixing art and cycling of all kinds is Salt Lake’s first ever bicycle art show: The Salt Lake City Bicycle Company and SaltCycle.com’s Gallery Roll.

Localized

This month SLUG’s Localized presents Palace of Buddies, Birthquake and openers The Buttery Muffins at Urban Lounge.
