Penis. Clitoris. Ejaculation. Fisting. Queef. If you are wincing just from reading these words, please do NOT come to 1904 Music Hall on Thursday, June 14 because PB&J Jacksonville is holding its first-ever Dirty Trivia where these words—and many more colorful ones—will be the subject of the night. It’s definitely not your typical fundraiser, says […]
The Specktator Institute for Unscientific Research conducted a poll via Facebook with more than 100 respondents sharing photos of what appears on their phone’s home/lock screen. My assistant Siri and I crunched the numbers and found out some surprising and not so surprising results. Not surprising is the percentage of people with photos of their […]
These days, singer/songwriter Jordyn Jackson is one-half of the duo Flagship Romance. (Her husband Shawn Fisher being the other.) But when I first chatted with Jordyn in 2011, it was about her burgeoning solo career. Matter of fact, I don’t think she even knew Shawn (formerly of Son of a Badman) at the time. Fast […]

Baseball’s never been tartar! (“Tartar,” as in “tartar sauce,” as in stuff you dip shrimp in … hey, I’m writing this at 6:12 in the morning, so cut me some slack). The Jacksonville Shrimp home opener is Wednesday, April 11 and is followed by four games against the Mobile BayBears. But I don’t know the […]
Every Monday, Richie Evans introduces you to a local band/musician. You may already be a fan—in which case, great—maybe you’ll learn something you didn’t know about them. If you’ve never even heard of them, even better. #listenlocal For all intents and purposes, American Glutton is a metal band. But guitarist Tommy Harrison describes their sound […]
By Richie Evans Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp are in for an exciting new season, as team owner Ken Bobby told attendees at a recent press conference. There will be plenty of theme nights, including Sunday Family FUNdays, Taco Tuesdays, Thirsty Thursdays and Red Shirt Fridays, as well as military appreciation games, Bark in the Park Days […]
It’s been almost six months since European Street Cafe—San Marco drowned as a result of Hurricane Irma. Fortunately, insurance covered the $650,000 in property damage, but I think we can all agree, NO amount of money can replace the hours of fellowship and knowledge we lost through the absence of Thursday Trivia With The Specktator. […]
More than a decade ago, I wrote an article about dating in Jacksonville where I tried various dating websites, speed dating and personal ads (it was the mid-2000s, people!). Last month, I decided to try it again but using dating apps. The experiences were very different. But the end result … the same. Originally published […]
By Richie Evans If you ask me, there truly isn’t anything better to do on a Friday night than to sing and dance with friends and other music lovers to great live music. And the Jan. 12, 2018 Zach Deputy show at 1904 Music Hall reminded me of just that. I’ve already seen Zach in concert so […]
