Do '12 White Guys' Really Run Knoxville?
Brian Conley, with help from the Metro Pulse staff, attempts get to the bottom of the myth(?) that "12 White Guys" run Knoxville. Who wields the most power and influence in this town? Look here to find out.

Citybeat
Betty Bean survives a scare from the West Nile virus and Joe Tarr summarizes the final report from the James White Parkway Task Force.
Plus: Seven Days, Meet your City, and Knoxville Found.

Joe Sullivan notes in Insights that job creation in Knoxville will depend heavily on economic growth from within, Brian Conley offers a Fool's Disclosure in A Note from the Publisher, Jack Neely wonders in Secret History who or what might be haunting the mysterious corner of Jackson and Central in the Old City, Scott McNutt takes a Pledge to all Idjits, and Charles E. Smith remembers Life on the Hill with Dr. Ed Boling.


That Really Old Time Music
Ever wonder what music sounded like more than 250 years ago? Well, don't worry, not many people do. But a small but devout group of musicians—including the Knoxville Early Music Project—spend their time trying to recreate it. Joe Tarr finds out what the attraction is.

Several Knoxville bands break out the wigs for Halloween and begin the musical masquerade as some of rock's most influential performers. And Benny Smith gets a booth's-eye view of Knoxville's deejay scene. Eye on the Scene reports on a New Year's bash by Knoxville's favorite adopted son.

Heather Joyner feels Convergence and Displaced. Luckily, these are the names of two enjoyable exhibits of female artists' works at the Ewing Gallery.

Jeanne McDonald appreciates Clyde Edgerton's tender and humorous treatment of old age in his newest novel, Lunch at the Picadilly.

Another Miles reissue intrigues despite the excess in Platters, and Panjabi MC invites your approach.
