I feel that there should be absolutely no campaign funding. When you bring in money, you bring corruption.

The Meatmen may have been around for more than three decades, but they’re nowhere near an expiration date. Punk never dies, fools.

Joshua Boydston
About 2,000 miles exist between Hollywood and Nashville, but that doesn’t mean country singer and actor Christian Kane won’t do his best to be in two places at once. Being both is a dream he’s had for most of his life, so he’s not about to let distance interfere.

From hail to hobos, having something on your roof is rarely a good thing. Two exceptions: Santa’s reindeer and Jewish milkmen. You’re in luck on the latter, because Fiddler on the Roof stages the first of eight shows at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday at Civic Center Music Hall, 201 N. Walker. The Tony-winning classic once was Broadway’s longest-running musical. Tickets are $20-$50. Call 297-2264 or visit okcciviccenter.com.
