Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
Over on DC9 at Night, music editor Pete Freedman chats with John Freeman about the fate and state of Sloppyworld, which was shut down by the city earlier this month because the venue does not yet have its certificate of occupancy. Turns out, Sloppyworld's a thing of the past, as the Dutch Treat's got other plans that don't include jumping through the city's flaming hoops -- but what, precisely, are those plans? Jump over to DC9 to find out. But there is some happy news. Two words: Corn Mo. --Robert Wilonsky
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.
