Still Woozy released their first full-length album If This Isn’t Nice, I Don’t Know What Is in August, and are now in the midst of a seven-month-long tour around the world. They stopped in at The Sylvee on Friday night and performed a sixteen-song set for an extremely dedicated crowd. The Sylvee was sold out — a large feat — and it was clear that the crowd was full of diehard fans as soon as lead singer Sven Gamsky began his first song of the night, “Window.”

Wetlands are unique, important and beautiful landscapes that often go overlooked and unappreciated. Wisconsin was once home to 10 million acres of wetlands, but in the past 200 years, we’ve destroyed 50% of our wetlands. Three-fourths of Wisconsin's wildlife species rely on wetlands for survival, including a variety of threatened and endangered species such as Hine’s emerald dragonfly, a charismatic little bug with bright green eyes and amber wings.

British pop rock band Bastille released their fourth studio album Give Me the Future on Feb. 4. The new album, somewhat similar thematically to Doom Days, deals with the idea of escapism, the future and the question of what is real and what is fake. Executive produced by OneRepublic frontman Ryan Tedder, the overall sound of the album could be described as futuristic synth-pop.

It came as no surprise last Thursday when quarterback Ben Roethlisberger retired from the National Football League after 18 years, all of which were spent with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Most beloved athletes retire to preserve their health or to spend more time with their families. In this case, it’s not the human family that’s being prioritized. Rather, Big Ben is opting to take advantage of the possibility of having more quality time with the birds that live in his nest-like beard.

Before I saw them live, I wasn’t really a big fan of SURFACES. While I knew and enjoyed a few of their hit songs, like “Sunday Best,” “24 / 7 / 365” and “Heaven Falls / Fall on Me,” SURFACES’ music isn’t something that I’d ever voluntarily put on.

James the Magician gazed out into the sluggish crowd for approval in his bright green hat with a red feather, gray vest meant for a high school dance, polka dot button up and cargo shorts with too many pockets. I was immersed in his dramatic — and sensual — ring-tossing trick choreographed to “Run me like a river” by Bishop Briggs, which seemed out of place for the half empty Bur Oak bar.

Recently, Netflix came out with their third and final season of “Sex Education,” a show in which the son of a sex therapist starts a commercial “sex education” clinic at his school in order to subsidize the crappy education the school gives. Touching on subjects as common as the pressure to lose one's virginity to things such as Vaginismus, the show truly accomplishes what its leading character Otis seeks to do: educate teenagers about the subjects they thought were taboo. Rotten Tomatoes says the new season is as “raunchy and riotous as ever,” but even with its shockingly explicit scenes and British setting, the show is much more socially valuable than another raunchy go.

There are many unique things about the city of Madison, located in the southern central part of Wisconsin on unseated Ho-Chunk territory. Beyond its rich local music scene and characteristic dining (cheese curds galore!) Madison is situated on a geographically unique piece of land — the Isthmus, a thin strip running between Lakes Mendota and Monona. The only other major US city built on an isthmus is Seattle, WA.

Walking into the venue for Cabinet of Curiosity's “Sea Change”, a feeling of familial intimacy might wash over you. Metal chairs that anyone might find in storage are arranged in rows and create makeshift aisles in a gravel parking lot. Standing speakers blast the calls of seagulls, the crashing of waves, and the rollings of thunder as audience members search for whatever empty seats were left. Performers, stagehands and other staff hustle around the hulking ship set making last minute preparations. It feels like cousins and other distant relatives had called all members of the family to report to the backyard to witness a play or musical number they'd been practicing all day. In a word, it feels like home.

The most recent report from the Institute for Research on Poverty at UW-Madison, published in October 2020, showed 10.6 percent of Wisconsinites lived in poverty in 2018. That rate has not changed much from 11.1 percent in 2009, when the state was beginning to recover from the Great Recession.

Shots rang out across Wisconsin on Monday, Feb. 22, as the state’s first wolf hunt in seven years took place. Packs of dogs raced across the fresh snow as hunters quickly overshot the harvest quota of 119. The hunt was closed just two days after it had begun as the DNR continued to receive reports of successful kills.

The COVID-19 pandemic is showing signs of slowing down, with vaccinations drives around the world in full swing, although the virus continues to claim lives today. It is now more than a year since the world was gripped by the virus, and at the time, its rapid spread caught most people off guard. However, pandemics have always been on the cards and should not have come as such a surprise, and there will be more pandemics if lessons are not learned from COVID-19.
