Singing a Different Tune
Musician/songwriter extraordinaire John Davis talks with MP's Mike Gibson about Davis' religious epiphany and how it affected him and led to Knoxville power pop band Superdrag's hiatus. The music's still in him though, and a revival of the nationally recognized band can't be ruled out.

Citybeat
Joe Tarr reports on Scott Miller's plans to climb aboard the Amtrak Crescent for a two-week tour next month; and Clint Casey logs his impressions of the latest Knoxville rally for a presidential candidate.
Plus: Seven Days, Meet your City, and Knoxville Found.

Joe Sullivan tells in Insights how Mayor-elect Bill Haslam has already inflated a cooperative balloon with City Council members, Barry Henderson points out the follies that follow mixing politics and religion in Editor's Corner, Jack Neely takes a long look back at Knoxville's Christmas holiday season 100 years ago in Secret History, Matt Edens wonders if one-term limits for Knoxville's mayors might be a good thing, and Glenn H. Reynolds points out that you can never be too small to hit the big time.


Give 'til It Feels Good
A disillusioned Joe Tarr thinks outside the holiday box and suggests a few less popular, but equally deserving charities for donation.


More infectious than influenza, the overtly accessible Plan A chews bubble gum while discussing the thrill of playing catchy pop-rock with Paige M. Travis.

Heather Joyner Spica's holiday fervor gains a pleasant buzz from the introspective quality of Hanson Gallery's Annual Holiday Show.

On a new label, rap collective LA Symphony returns even stronger with The End is Near, and Seal releases a smooth-as-silk collection of love songs on Seal IV. We take a look at both in Platters.
