It's also nearly time for one of my favorite charity events of the year: The Great Cover Up, in which local acts masquerade as more famous acts to perform a set of cover songs, is just so much fun. And it benefits community radio KXCI, 91.3 FM, so it's all for a good cause. Associate editor Jeff Gardner has the details in this week's music section.
Elsewhere in this week's issue: The Skinny bids good riddance to Pima County Supervisor Ally Miller, who announced this week that she won't seek another term in 2020; Congressman Raul Grijalva talks about impeachment, uranium mining at the Grand Canyon and more in this week's Currents section; columnist Tom Danehy has some doubts about Kanye's religious awakening; arts writer Margaret Regan reviews a show that explores loss and grief at MOCA Tucson; movie critic Bob Grimm says Marriage Story demonstrates that breaking up really is hard to do; Matt Russell samples the new menu at Commoner & Co.; and there's a lot more in this issue, so why are you still reading this? Turn the page, already!
See you at the Great Cover Up!
