A Throw-down of Epic Proportions

Or just two drunk bands trying to out play each other, whateves. So hey. Four Pints shy is popping their Siouxland cherry and we think it’s only fair that we show them who is boss out there. If you’re going to be in town, come cheer, leer, and queer us on! *wink wink nudge nudge* […]

Siouxland or Bust

This year marks my FIFTH (!!!) season with The Dregs. The very first time I laced up my peasant bodice with them was in 2010 at The Siouxland Renaissance Festival (check out their website, yo). Here is a picture from my very first Dreggy weekend:     This was not my first outing to the […]

The Token Vegetarian

I ended last week’s blog with a ridiculous picture of a baby bird in a bun. That inspired me to come right out of the spinach-lined closet and just say it. Some of you may already know this,  but I don’t eat meat. That’s right kids. I’m a vegetarian. I have been one since 2000, but […]

Droopie of the Month: April Edition

This month’s Droopie is Stehve Ahonen. Yaaaaaay! *muppet hands* Stephan is a professional live sound engineer.
