The new Midtown Monthly is so good! More substantial this time. I loved Guphy's article, and the zine article, and that they used my burger pictures, and Liv's mention of the bomb ass tamale booth. I am going to start getting those from the farmer's market to eat for dinner. I wish she would come to the Sunday one.
It also has some crazy coupons, and if you guys use them, it will help to keep midmo alive. One is for ten days of FREE yoga classes in July at the new yoga studio in the MARRS building. Tamara is a good teacher if you're looking for a class. Corey is good, too, and part of the fun with her is that she is so flexible that I called her cirque du soleil in my head. I think all the classes are all level.
The other coupon is 15% off pizza at La Trattoria Bohemia. That's a good deal, and I like the pizza there. And they have good beer on tap. I know I sound like an ad right now, but I was just surprised to see these coupons and plan to use both of them.
Doug Biggert tonight! Maybe I will stuff a dill pickle with liverwurst? Free beer!
Pickle stuffed with Wurst!
ReplyDeleteStealing our old family recipe?
Do it, everyone will agree its gross, everyone but my grandma of course.
She also makes a clam dip you may want to look into.

Thanks! I am so stoked on this issue.

I will totally chow down on der pickle-liverwurst. Liverwurst is the liverbest!
ReplyDeleteGlad you liked the zine article, and great catch on the Lee's Hardware fishes...
I followed your Midtown Monthly link and it's still April. It takes 30 seconds to update a picture.
ReplyDeleteGuess you'll have to pick up a physical copy. They don't update the website.
ReplyDeleteI wrote that thing in SNR, not Cosmo.
The snacks I'm making for the opening are: that kind of gross Kakua "port" cheese spread (which I loved as a kid) on Ritz crackers and cream cheese and green olive on wheat thins.
hey everyone,
ReplyDeletecheck out what this douche wrote about Charles in Sound Advice SNR.
http://www.newsreview.com/sacramento/content?oid=1029701
I was thinking it had to be Charles he was talking about. It was almost so harsh I thought it must be a joke. What the hell? How could anyone not love the earphones?
ReplyDeleteWell, he was talking about Charles. Just not nicely.
ReplyDeleteIn other sad news, I heard the fellow from the mini donuts stand at Auction Town died. He made so many happy.

It's all a part of Albright's master plan. Because now we're Talking About Charles.
ReplyDeleteJed
yeah, hating on people isn't a music review! That dude was LAME.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad my brothers wrote some eloquent responses.
Its Talk About Charles,
ReplyDeleteNot Bag on Charles Like a Total Mean Spirited Douchebag.
Dude must have misunderstood.

Man, that is really lame, and not just because it's some jerk needlessly picking on someone for what they are wearing (who happens to be a friend of mine), but also because it epitomizes the ridiculous amount of snarky attitude that seems to permeate much of the SN&R's reviews lately which just comes across (to me at least) as kinda sad and desperately insecure. It's pretty much the reason I stopped reading that paper months ago.

Man, I didn't even notice that. Fucking unbelievable, but I guess dude's memory of that sweet Korn show where his ears were ringing for 2 days is just too fond for him to accommodate Charles. I mean really, I have been thinking about Charles' earphones for some time and dude beat me to my big NY Times cover story about stupid people who actually like having their hearing. Scooped again! Maybe I can write a story about how this dude gets his ass kicked by the Maxwell boys.
ReplyDelete-Ed C.
also, hey Derek, when you get out of journalism class tonight, I will be waiting. I am the one without the big earphones.
Wait until you see what I have in store for Charles in next week's SNR. I am going to roast that guy on a spit.

Hey, I'm Charles Albright. Who the hell is Derek Nielsen?

Charles, he's the guy nect to you hating on the ear protection.
ReplyDeleteYou probably couldn't hear him.
-Natalie.
The use of the phrase lubeless orgy in your myspace band description will totally blow my totally square mind all day.
ReplyDelete-Natalie.
Wait, Charles is in a band named Baby?
ReplyDeleteWait, the mini donut guy died? That is horrible. I hope his tiny assistant will carry on.
Yeah, less snark, more sincerity. Less snark, more sincerity! Is that a good chant? That's what MidMo has over SNR, we like the stuff we like and we like to talk about how we like it.
Yep, snark is tired. Sincerity is in. And, apparently hope.
ReplyDeleteI guess mini donut guy's name was Mel.

Big thanks to you and Smiller for the tasty snacks and rad tune curation! so fun.
ReplyDeleteR.I.P. mini donuts Mel:(
