Stephanie Drury, along with running the site Stuff Christian Culture Likes and the Twitter handle @fakeDriscoll, is also The Monarch’s resident Religion correspondent.

Sierra Stinson runs the Vignettes gallery, which shows off work from the comfort of her own home. She also has a mighty fine coif. We had a chance to chat with her about curating, getting introduced to a number of great Seattle artists and what one thing she would change about the art and investment scene here in town. Â

If on a Tuesday evening you find yourself with nothing exciting to do, you might hear yourself thinking, “I remember people talking about the Seamonster Lounge and that band McTuff – maybe I should go there.†If, as it happens, you decide to get on a bus, call a taxi/uber/pink mustache/orange flag/horse and buggy, walk or drive to the Seamonster on a Tuesday night, say, around midnight, you will see, in the back right corner of the shotgun-style bar a trio of musicians: Joe Doria on keys, Andy Coe on guitar and Tarik Abouzied on drums.

The executive’s name was Tim Riley and he had been at Fox Sports from the beginning, rising through the ranks, crushing subordinates and superiors alike, until he was making a lot more dough than the idiots hitting baseballs 500 feet and knocking down 25-footers with regularity. And that was the problem, they were idiots, fixed costs, crushing expenses that ate into league profits grilled from ten-dollar hot dogs and indirectly the advertising profits of his own beloved network.

When Robb Benson pulled me aside mid-rehearsal to show me a new video he’d shot with Seattle musician Gus Clark, I had no idea what to expect. But five seconds into the piece, I knew it would be incredible. The voice, the guitar picking, the excellent camera and editing. The wonderful Darla in a clown costume! All of it! Here is the video for you to enjoy, as I did!
The Monarch Drinks With Riz Rollins

The first thing you should know about Riz Rollins is that he’s a charming motherfucker. No less than a dozen people stopped and talked to us while we sat inside and then outside Pettirosso in Capitol Hill on a sunny, unseasonably warm September afternoon. Another dozen or so yelled his name or said hi while walking past. One guy stopped and said, “I can’t help touching you,†when a hug turned into some light petting. I was nervous to meet Riz, having known him on the radio since I moved to this area ten years ago and having experienced what […]

San Francisco: The City Of Murals

I recently traveled to San Francisco with my lovely girlfriend to enjoy the city’s food, friendly people, and warm atmosphere. What I didn’t expect to see was the plethora of murals. Below are a few dozen shots we took of the many bright and colorful paintings from the city’s streets (especially Clarion Alley), billboards and restaurants.Â
