Ed. Note: Since food critics Jake and Jason de Paul grabbed their families and blew town for a week, the Weekly Volcano sent scribe Julie Jordan for a first bite at Capers Downtown. The boys will visit Capers in the next couple of months. In “Swingers,” John Favreau judged hookups by

A few weeks ago, Bobble Tiki made an offhand remark about Jazzbones. This offhand remark caused a level of general hysteria that Bobble Tiki usually only stirs up after seven cocktails. Jazzbones didn’t take kindly to the remark, and frankly, many at the Weekly Volcano haven’t either. In fact, the

Recently I went to this big concert that Kube 93 throws called Summer Jam. It’s basically a big party where music stars come to entertain, and the price starts out at only $28. To me, that’s a pretty good price. While I was walking around in between shows I noticed

In hindsight, my high school prom “dress” was very much like Tinky Winky’s costume on the Telletubies. I should note, first off, that I did not go to prom, as I was not asked, and I am not bitter about that fact. As it turned out, my senior prom night was

The North End of Tacoma has its own very special aura. It has a quaint upper scale, artsy vibe with its well-built older homes and manicured lawns that seem to say, “We are successful and established here.” As if it were pre-planned by some city official, Proctor District has just

It’s time for falling prices (but not for long!) The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, the unofficial mark of the end of summer for me, is in full swing, but only until Aug. 6, at which point all the sale tags will be unceremoniously yanked off the clothing items, and the bigger numbers
