The world is full of beautiful, unexpected collisions. Take for example the upcoming "After School's Out" benefit concert at The Hotel Foster on Friday, March 22. The show, organized by Alice Cooper bassist Chuck Garric and his better half - and OnMilwaukee.com contributor - Lindsay Garric was put together to raise money for Lloyd Barbee Montessori, a Milwaukee Public Schools Montessori program housed in the former Garden Homes School on 24th and Teutonia.

I arrived at my desk this morning to find a little gift from Milwaukee band Jimmy at the Prom. The hard-hitting local rock (with a capital R) quartet has a blood red-vinyl 7" out with two tracks recorded at the Riverside Theater. The platter marks the emergence of the first material - namely "Escape" and "Fist of Doom" - produced by Chuck Garric.

Sunday August 28th, 2011 - Kenosha, WI Weird isn’t always a bad thing. It depends on the kind. There’s good and bad weird just as there are good and bad fats, bacteria and I’m sure all kinds of other things that aren’t at the top of my consciousness right now. ...
Thursday June 30th, 2011 - Milwaukee, WI Logic would have decided against it, and I’m sure all my doctors and nurses would have agreed, but I felt a burning need to chuck all things prudent and find the way to venture to Milwaukee to catch the George Clinton show at Summerfest. ...
Sunday June 14th, 2009 - Southgate, MI/Lake Villa, IL I was thinking about driving back after the show last night but my iffy radiator situation told me not to. I had a nice hotel room and I didn’t see the benefit of risking a night in my car on the side of the road vs. hoping I...
