She Returns From War brings queer country back to Charleston

When She Returns From War comes home to Charleston for a Nov. 19 gig at the Pour House, the band’s hometown show will feature some comrades-in-arms along for the ride. Joining the bill is Nashville-born, Denver-based singer-songwriter Maddie Medley, whose haunting blend of indie folk, alternative rock and raw, literary songwriting gives her music a cinematic edge. Also on the bill is Big Guy and The Very Large Men, the project of Nashville songwriter James Droll, whose emotionally candid, indie-pop sound explores the beauty and messiness of living openly queer in the Bible Belt.

What is the ‘rocks’ charge on my Charleston restaurant bill? It isn’t for ice.

Is it just me, or are more and more Charleston restaurants leaving the prices off of their online menus? Like most diners, I prefer to know how much items cost ahead of a visit, especially when we're eating with kids and might be in a rush. When dish prices aren't made available, it doesn't just ruin my pre-dinner scouting mission — it makes me wonder why they're trying to hide them. At restaurants, surprises are typically a good thing. But that's rarely the case when it comes to the bill, which brings me to our first Tip Jar inquiry of the week. Submit your restaurant, dining and food questio...
