This week, you get two Weekenders for the price of one, assuming that you actually paid to read this column. One is a regular version. The other is a digest of all the Halloween events. Use one or both. The choice is yours alone.

Iowa City Weekender: October 13-15
In this week’s Weekender, we bridge the gap between print and online journalism, say goodbye to a local band, encourage local political engagement and learn that you can say City three times while referring to City Hall. It’s as action packed as a teen soap!

If there was ever a time to paraphrase Vashti Bunyan, it would be now as it’s going to be just another diamond weekend.

Iowa City Weekender: September 15-17
What do a Canadian electro-pop group, a keg, a reference to Double Dare, Steely Dan, bicycles, zombies, and community building have in common? I’ll give you a hint: it’s not R. Kelly.

Show Review: Taj Weekes & Adowa, Tribal Momentum – Yacht Club 8/12/11
As demonstrated by all the funky shops, restaurants, and people around town, Iowa City has multicultural tastes. Our local bands are interesting, and our clubs bring in acts from far-flung places to meet those tastes. St. Lucia is 2600 miles away from IC, so that qualifies as far-flung in my atlas. Taj Weekes & Adowa brought some of the culture of St. Lucia all the way to Iowa, and Tribal Momentum showed off a bit of Iowa City’s own crazy culture.

Show Photos: Tribal Momentum on Little Village Live – 8/10
Another Wednesday at PS1 brought another great band to the KRUI airwaves. This week, I had the pleasure of hearing the Tribal Momentum. This four-piece reminded me of some of the great jam bands of the late 90s, but I wouldn’t label them as a jam band proper. They’re better than that.
