Re: Kick around ideas for a new DIY venue for Des Moines

Has anyone ever talked with the people that run Art 316 off 5th St. downtown? It's sort of over by the Sec Taylor Stadium area. I've always seen the place and thought it would make a great space for a DIY venue, but have never been inside. It seems the people rent out "studio" space, but i...

Where is the best Sushi place in Des Moines? Taki is decent, but seems more expensive and is always busy.

Re: Fat Mike's SXSW Cokie the Clown set

I don't really think the shitty part was stealing his friend's records. Acutally, the friend probably would have wanted his buddies to have his records instead of his parents just selling them or throwing them away? I think the shitty part is that if he really was a friend, he would have tried to he...
