You can hear and see a whole brigade of rock, and a bit of country too, with your tea and tequila

They will be wearing rock T-shirts, and sipping tea and tequila:
— They are a little bit country and a lot rock ‘n roll, with an emphasis on the ’80s. So, will their regular costume changes include emulating Dolly Parton? That’s unlikely, but you will hear and see a heavy dose of Old School hair bands, as well as music from other decades, when Rock Brigade plays The Willow River Saloon in Burkhardt on Saturday night, March 10.
— “Did you know we have over 50 kinds of tea?” This question is posed on the web site of Urban Olive and Vine. Not to be outdone, just down the block downtown at the Agave Kitchen, they have over 75 brands of tequila.
— The guys from Junk FM say they play a wide array of styles all slammed into one night, and sometimes, slammed into one song. They also describe their shows as a “genre-bending mashup.” See for yourself when they play the Smilin Moose on Friday night.

— There indeed is a Pot Of Gold at the end of the rainbow. Just like there is a cool offering related to St. Patrick’s Day at the other end of Carmichael Road, opposite the often seen on this site, grill and bar venues on the south side. At Hudson Bagel and Coffee Co. there is 17 percent off your entire purchase — patterned on the date this March the Irish celebrate — just ask the leprechaun in the ad! The offer runs through April 4.

A hodgepodge listing of everything that’s truly different but maybe baked porage follows, and we’re not talking about a connect-the-dots or puzzle-pieces contest or one on Trump’s foreign policy, haha, rather what I saw and what will be seen around town in recent times. Mostly, one of each. Think you have the world’s, or more likely local church’s, best grilled cheese sandwich, (coming from the land of, specifically, well curded and curdled milk and honey?) Fry it to the test on Saturday. No this is not an autumn chili cookoff, or char the best burger, or even a poker run...

  • Give props to the several bands for climbing partway up deer-stand-style lofts, then taking to all but the lute. (We saw virtually every other style of smaller instrument at a Music in the Trees fundraiser for a nature preserve.) Yes, they dropped a couple of drumsticks to the forest floor, but perservered as a fan fave. Then a band from The Andes stole the show.
Music in the trees? It conjures up images of a poet wearing millenniums-ago robe and sandals while playing a lute and propped onto the fourth fork of a bigger-than-usual apple tree and doing a balancing act on his ass while he sings a soliloquy or a soffit. Maybe taking a bite in-between verses, to match what listeners chomped on if they hauled it in down long nature paths, making for dinner and a show with duos and trios, and one huge and elaborate band. Well didn’t quite get that lute-ist. Or a bassist so high on life and so-forth stoned...

  • The start of one song, was simply “Question?” So we’ll lead off this story — Guess Who? — with who will lead the blue as it attempts to fade in with the red in the county in this election cycle? Can we get to The Color Purple? Mock the Maroon? (A scam Alert!!! My post is massively updated after my short trip between Badger and Gopher states. So read on.)
Questions everywhere? These days, how do you dismiss an ad or a politician, or whoever or whatever pops up and occupies your computer screen, or mailbox, electronic or otherwise? And did that answer in the form of a package or letter or even air waves — coming from a pol or a pool? — ever actually arrive, like all those ads and flyers? Maybe it never will? And surely not written with a quill. As one friend just reminded me, it all starts with one problem leading into another set of problems. Or, like a volcano boiling and brewing and...

  • The hearsay vote will be read by some as pure heresy, as Hermening spies the ‘country club crowd’ for how he can putt to quasi-greatness and quash Trump. Then in today’s election there’s a pro-life, run-of-the-mill muckadymuck, a Hong pro-education predictable, and a sharper than the average sheep Shannon (yes it’s a he.) THat’s what flyers tell us about the Day’s Of Our Lives. Today.
Hey today they threw it all back to you, as it is election day, and with it the last Badger gasp — if least if they’re our candidates — (is that the throaty noise they make?), with a soar-throated, campaign-trail rasp made by an audio-version plethora of last-minute flyers that fill our boxes with hopes to grasp, so we can check their boxes when we go to the polls and pick a (partial) winner to move on to full November midterms. Less then the Trump-triumphed manhandling our mailboxes got however, in the last election of this type. Those worn, creaking...
