Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
Good news for anyone (and everyone, it seems) familiar with Bryce Avary, a.k.a. The Rocket Summer: Colleyville's most famous panty-dropper and writer of catchy pop-rock tunes has won the most recent Yahoo! Music "Who's Next?" contest, wherein fans vote for shit they like. And the fans like Bryce. Partly because he's a talented guy who plays every instrument on his record, and partly because he's, like, dreamy.
There's some kind of horn solo in the middle of The Rocket Summer's hit "So Much Love", which I have to admit is a little unnerving. But I hear it has a melting effect on teenage girls' hearts, causing them to swoon and pant and such. Of course, if they'd just let She-Dick do a DISD middle school gym tour, the same thing would probably happen … in my heart. -- Andrea Grimes
Keep the Dallas Observer Free... Since we started the Dallas Observer, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Dallas, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Dallas with no paywalls.
