I recently visited the Des Moines Arts Festival, and to say I was impressed is an understatement.
What really amazed me was the sheer number of people that attended the Festival, and the number of children that were also there with their parents. It’s always encouraging to see parents exposing their kids to art at [...]

My good friend Ray, aka The Sleight of Hand Man, performed at yesterday’s Lakewood Art Walk. While the weather didn’t exactly cooperate, he still was able to perform in front of quite a few people.

The Des Moines Register is reporting that Chipotle will open its first Des Moines-area Chipotle location May 30, at the Valley West Mall in West Des Moines.

There is a group of people that are petitioning Melt Bar and Grilled owner/chef Matt Fish to put the Purple Parma, which features breaded/fried eggplant, permanently on the menu. They even circulated a [...]

Tyrone is seriously one of the best guitarists in Cleveland, hands down. A bluesman by trade, he can shred with the best of them. I am convinced he is one of Cleveland’s best kept secrets.
If you ever get the chance to catch him or his band, Tyrone’s Blues Sinsation (TBS), definitely go and see him [...]
