Split Lip Rayfield

June 26, 2003

Holy hell yeah...Split Lip is back. If you missed the boys in their first coupla shows since splittin' up back in 2001, you can still catch 'em here. This particular private engagement in Newton was cooked up especially for this inaugural episode of The Turnpike (since changing the show's name from 'Fusion'). Thanks Tanya, Valentin, and Bonnie Tandoc for their hospitality and delicious eats.

Library rides nostalgia wave with launch of Retro Gaming Club

Ian Stepp remembers visiting his aunt’s house as a kid, where he’d play classic games like Duck Hunt and iterations of the Mario Brothers saga on the family’s trusty old Nintendo Entertainment System. Now pushing 30, Stepp is still a fan of the now-classic video games that in recent years have spawned a thriving culture and industry capitalizing on the nostalgia of grownups who coveted Nintendo game systems as kids in the 1980s and 90s.
