Bobble Tiki enjoys a good, spirited debate. That’s not to say Bobble Tiki enjoys a good-spirited debate, because when Bobble Tiki throws down verbally he likes to pull out all the stops. Be it name calling or mama referencing, Bobble Tiki will stop at nothing to emerge victorious in any

Bobble Tiki knows it. He’s the oldest music columnist the Weekly Volcano has. That means, when sitting around in the Weekly Volcano War Room with fresh faces like Matt Driscoll, Brad Allen, Paul Schrag and even the hard living Suzy Stump, Bobble Tiki assumes the role of elder. When a

Bobble Tiki didn’t have a very enjoyable high school experience. In retrospect, it’s not surprising. For one, Bobble Tiki was the only grass skirt wearing, island-themed souvenir in his class. That alone made for plenty of name calling and ridicule. Secondly, Bobble Tiki hated school. Plain and simple. Bobble Tiki

East Coast versus West Coast. Bobble Tiki’s not talking about a hip-hop war this time, rather the preconceptions and stereotypes that people from both places seem to harbor for the other. Bobble Tiki’s as guilty as anyone. Bobble Tiki figures everyone from New York is exactly like someone he’s

Walking by Jazzbones the other day, Bobble Tiki heard it from a youth loitering outside. “Who the fuck is Walter Trout?” Bobble Tiki had to laugh on the inside. While Walter Trout doesn’t have the most recognizable name in blues or rock, he should be up there,
