It’s easy to blame your shitty life on all sorts of things: having overbearing or unresponsive parents, slacking off in school, spending too much money on the ponies, or just having a tragic lack of luck in the gene lottery. The good people at Tsunami’s Tiki Bar are throwing a…
You’re not going to hear Timb on the radio anytime soon. It’s not that he’s untalented or too vulgar; it’s because he’s simply unclassifiable and might literally destroy the airwaves if he were broadcast on them. The best way to try to describe one of Timb’s live solo shows is…
