We present to you a list of bands we would love to have come through Tulsa (we'll even settle for near Tulsa, we aren't too needy). This is not a complete list of the bands we would like to see in town, just the ones we want to see the most right now. This list could, and very likely will, change.
1. Deer Tick
2. Rosie Thomas
3. Battles
4. M.I.A.
5. Beirut
6. Panda Bear
7. Okkervil River

There Will Be Blood
Radiohead guitarist Jonny Greenwood is behind the baton for Paul Thomas Anderson's new flim There Will Be Blood based on Upton Sinclair's novel Oil! This is Greenwood's first attempt at film compositions, but if you listened you wouldn't think so. It's clearly and painfully obvious now that Jonny Greenwood is the genius behind the band.

There Will Be Blood opens nationally January 11, 2008.

The Money in the Bank Goes Bye, Bye, Bye (sometimes)
A rash of bank robberies are sweeping through the Tulsa metro, and by "rash" I mean 4 of them, at least 1 of which was unsuccessful.
On Thursday, January 3 three individuals attempted to rob the BancFirst location near 91st and Yale. A teller saw three men wearing masks approach the bank sometime around 9:30...so she locked the door on them (their sigh on disappointment was audible in Midtown). They fled the scene in an "Acura-type" vehicle (whatever that means). One of those men was apprehended.
And then there's this guy who is suspected of robbing 4 banks in Tulsa. He likes to wear panty hose on his face.

Man Drives Into Backyard. Wasn't Drunk.
According to Channel 2 Works For You (sort of) a Tulsa man lost control of his car, jumped a retaining wall into someone's back yard only then to pull the most anti-climactic move in history...stop mere feet from the house.

Serial Killer on the Loose! Hide your bovines?
Authorities are working frantically to hunt down a serial murderer that has claimed the lives of nearly 30 cows in northeastern Oklahoma since August. Most of the murders have taken place in Nowata, Rogers, Craig and Mayes Counties (apparently Tulsa county bovines aren't priority number one). The first cows to go before their time were mutilated and butchered on scene, however, the latest victims have just been shot and left to die.
Investigators are busy passing out fliers and information at agriculture stores and feed lots across the 120 square mile area affected by the "Bovine Bundy" (my term) and are encouraging ranchers and farmers to be on the lookout for any suspicious activity (drunk rednecks firing guns from moving pickup trucks is not suspicious in this part of the state, mind you).
