    Off Beat: Swingers of all sorts could enjoy a round of Pub Golf

    It’s a rarely spoken truth, but it has to be said: golfing isn’t welcome on the streets of downtown Portland. It’s also true that the random plot of grass in front of Rosie’s would be an ideal spot to tee off for a long drive down Fore Street. But golfers are forced to bag their […]

    From the editor: Want to hear something strange?

    I’ve seen a lot of weird things in my time. I grew up in a haunted house (literally, not the Halloween-costume kind), in a town that has an albino squirrel as a mascot. I’ve had my video camera inexplicably stop dead in a Key West cemetery and start up again as soon as I was […]

    Face the Music: Portland Music & Arts Festival a big deal for a great cause

    The last time I saw Juliette Lewis perform was about five years ago with her old band, The Licks, at Asylum on Halloween night. It was an insane crowd on an insane night. Lewis, however, put on one hell of a show. With the berserk-in-a-good-way energy of Iggy Pop, she let us have it. This […]

    From the editor: As actresses go, Juliette Lewis rocks

    From the earliest stages of her career, Juliette Lewis has shown amazing versatility. That will be evident this week in Maine, when she performs a rock show at Port City Music Hall tonight and when her new movie, “The Switch,” opens on Friday. Whether it’s the acting roles she chooses, the music she performs or […]

    Bar Guide: Drink specials, no cover make for true summer Oasis

    Head to OOB, where neon never seems to go out of style, and check out the Oasis Bar and Grille. Although the place might need to get a new sign for next summer because it’s recently discontinued its kitchen items, it’s still a bar near the beach, so the Oasis part makes sense. Chris Steele […]

    CD Review: Journey to Emerald Isle on strings and voices of Hoffman and Trippe

    It was only fitting that I was driving through particularly dense fog across the Casco Bay Bridge, over the cobblestones of the Old Port, then up Munjoy Hill and down to the waters of the East End boat launch as I listened to the new CD from Hope Hoffman and Jeff Trippe. There’s something ancient […]
