It was so fun, let's do it again!

It was so fun in September and October, the City of Arcata wanted to do it all over again!

Farmer's Market? No.

Halloween on the Plaza? No.

Occupy the Plaza? Fuck no.

Digging up H Street and closing it down? Yes.

Wednesday, construction crews were back tearing up a nice chunk of all that new, clean street and sidewalk they shut off part a "major" "artery" of the city, like they did mere weeks before.

Reasons?

Hey, nice thinking Arcata

So, City of Arcata, way to wait to do this massive reconstruction project on H Street until all the HSU kids and staff come back and rain is just around the corner.

We had two and a half months where this city was a virtual ghost town and it was relatively nice as far as weather goes, but you guys waited until it would be the most annoying and disrupting to our local businesses.

We bet the delay was because some construction meathead had tickets to Hawaii for the summer or something like that.

Live Show Preview: Splinter Cell

Ben Allen, music editor

This weekend the Alibi will host Splinter Cell, a fun new rock band comprised of local scene veterans. James Forbes plays bass and sings and was formerly in the glam-pop group Buffy Swayze as well as Arrogant Hare and Crutch. Jeff Langdon on drums was guitarist in the legendary "hillbilly metal" outfit The Hitch. Rounding out the trio is Sean Ennis on guitar and vocals.

The Nucleus to Play Benefit at The Jambalaya

Ben Allen, music editor

Local band The Nucleus will be playing their first show in over a year this Friday, July 8th at The Jambalaya.

I spoke with drummer Pete Ciotti and asked him why it had been so long since they had performed. "We are all family guys with wives and kids and are also just busy living life," he said. He continued, "We all still love playing together so I don't think we'll ever be officially done. This it has been such a big part of who we are an who we have become."

So You Think You Can Funny 3 Was Great!

Chris Durant, staff

First off, let me address the variations of times and cover charges that caused havoc and surprised some patrons. I apologize. I hope the T-Shirt giveaway eased some of that pain.

Thanks for all who came out to the third So You Think You Can Funny at the Jambalaya tonight (June 23), and I hope you all enjoyed yourself.

A Special thanks to those who got up on stage: Joe, Joe, Joey, Red, (Sure A), Shayna (sp?), Beth, The Good Dr. Foxmeat, Benito Carlos DeLeon, and everyone else brave enough to mount that stage.

So You Think You Can Funny 3!

The third installment of our future legendary, post comedy era, comedy stand up Savage Henry Magazine presents So You Think You Can Funny #3.

This one's a little different, a couple hours of open mic stand up followed by the comedy stylings of Cornell Reid.

Thursday, June 23. The Jambalaya in Arcata, 8 p.m. $7.

See you there.

Dutch Savage's Arcata Vol. 1

Our resident paparazzo Dutch Savage doesn't just take incriminating photos of celebrities driving around Arcata while they talk on their cell phones.

He also captures glimpses of this town we love/hate/don't know about/think it's Arcadia — Arcata.

Like this one, an early morning glimpse of the Plaza before the Plazoids rise, where the seagull-feeding lady has trained the birds to give her high fives.

Simply amazing.

Dude! Keep it in your pants! (allegedly)

It appears that the same day Alexander James Newton was arrested on suspicion of indecent exposure by the Arcata Police Department he was right back at it.

For the full story read this first:

The Arcata Police Department said officers were called around 8:30 p.m. Tuesday to a report to a man exposing his junk to girls somewhere downtown.

The man was quickly identified as Newton, 38, a transient.

The girls told police that Newton ran off after he showed off his wares.
