There’s not a lot of careers where abrasiveness could be considered an asset, especially for females. A snarky waitress earns no tips; a rough-around-the-edges jet pilot might raise more than a few red flags; an asshole massage therapist would just, well, ruin the whole experience. But when it comes to music – rock and country […]
Scavenge ants, win festival tickets!
Music festivals and scavenger hunts: These are a few of our favorite things! So when we learned last week that our friends at Red Ants Pants Music Festival are combining the two to promote the three-day event in late July, we just about lost our minds. Apparently festival organizers have stationed enormous hand-sewn red ants […]
Trail Well Traveled – 6/2
Welcome to the Trail Well Traveled! Each Friday, in partnership with Montana Wilderness Association we will feature a new western Montana trail and then give you some helpful details and tips to get on your way! With snow still in the higher elevations, Craig is keeping us down low again this week with an easy trek outside Kalispell. […]
Vinally Friday – 6/2
For once, the turntable is not our primary focus on Vinally Friday. Don’t freak: we’ll still be spinning vinyl all day long. But this week, we’re pairing at least one of our selections with a very special guest. His name is Ron Campbell, and despite never appearing on a single Beatles album he still played an […]
June Book of the Month
The Trail, in partnership with the Book Exchange, is excited to unveil the next installment of our Book Club series! From the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller and Oscar-winning film “The Revenant” comes the remarkable true story of the worst hard-rock mining disaster in American history. “Fire and Brimstone,” by Michael Punke, visits the […]
New Tracks – 5/30
It starts with a single snare blast, but over the next measure and a half it unrolls into a crescendo of sound that rivals any other on the track. We’re talking about the drum fill a half-minute or so into Mondo Cozmo‘s anthemic debut single, “Shine.” To casual listeners, it’s probably the least memorable aspect of […]
Trail Well Traveled – 5/26
Welcome to the Trail Well Traveled! Each Friday, in partnership with Montana Wilderness Association we will feature a new western Montana trail and then give you some helpful details and tips to get on your way! We’re still waiting for the snowpack to dissipate in some of the higher elevation areas, so this week Craig has picked a […]
Vinally Friday – 5/26
Don’t get it wrong – Craig’s not an old hippie. He’s still middle-aged at the very least. And, of course, his hair is too short. But when it comes to his musical selections, we could forgive you for being mistaken. After all, this is the same guy who lit up the Trail turntable with some Commander Cody […]
