The Time I Went To Sasquatch
This, ladies and gentlemen, is my slightly blurred account of what happened at the 2013 Sasquatch Music Festival. Call it what you will, a recap, a guide, a ramble, whatever this might be to you, it is my journal and the only way I will ever be able to remember what I just experienced. … read more
Review: The Runs – Pretty Girls
Pretty Girls needs more “Hey! Ho!”s and “Gabba gabba hey!”s. The lyrics are extruded from a Joey Ramone-‑like perspective, and the vocals of Scott Free have a similar cadence and tone to Joey. … read more

A Killer View from The Green Pig Pub
Let’s say you’re bored one night. It’s a weeknight in Salt Lake City and you have zero to do. Never mind that stack of homework or business expense whatevers on your desk. You want to watch the sportsball game on TV! And have a beer! And play pub trivia! Then you want to listen to a band! During all this, you want a burger because it’s your cheat day. Luckily for you, there is one place in town that does all of the above, not only once a week, but nearly every day. That place, this mecca of entertainment and food, is The Green Pig Pub. … read more
Design of the Devil’s Hand? Diabolical Affinities Through Printmaking
Before we begin, I’d like to start with an invo- cation, and invite you to ponder what the Devil means to you. Do cliché images of red creatures with horns, wings and flames come to mind? Per- haps images of Norwegian black metal come through, as churches burn in flames and pagans flirt with death? Or maybe Lucifer is just some simple dude who goes bowling on weeknights. … read more
Les Madeleines: Savoring is Encouraged
Throughout my culinary journeys, I’ve had the pleasure of coming across a few establishments that are holding out against the growing tide of mass-produced faux meat and trafficking cryogenically frozen vegetables from halfway across the country.

Beer Reviews
You’ve gotten to know barley (and wheat–based) beers, amber ales and hefeweizens—now I want you to experience rye beers. Rye malt has a slight herbal spiciness that sets it apart from other grains. I beg you to step out and try some of these locally available examples. … read more
