In addition to providing coffee, Elemental Coffee also sells locally-produced food, [...]

We don’t know about the rest of you, but damn those seasonal bugs going around making everyone sick! (Cue angry, angry fist shakes.) I don’t know if that inspired Daniel or not, but today’s Penguin Noir reminds me a lot of Dr. Google, but with vampire self-assessment tests. Also, our vampires don’t sparkle. That is [...]

  After recently reviewing DEERPEOPLE’s latest EP Exploragasm, I decided to go see them play the Opolis this past Friday. I was not disappointed. They play true to sound and they put on a hell of a show. Frontman Brennan Barnes has the stage presence of a mountain goat covering Iggy Pop, scrambling atop speakers [...]

DEERPEOPLE: EXPLORGASM!

Explorgasm

A quick scan of DEERPEOPLE’s biography reveals they: “…simultaneously emerged from a sticky, moist womb and proceeded to rock.” Their interests? “optimism.” In short: they’re quirky. I love quirky.
