Oddball Wisconsin
We all know Wisconsin has its share of the quirky. And we don't mind celebrating it. Whether or not we'd want someone from south of the state line to do it, is questionable. But when Chicago writer Jerome Pohlen does it - in the new second edition of his book "Oddball Wisconsin: A Guide to 400 Really Strange Places" - it's OK.

What writers like
Every year, the staff at OnMilwaukee.com offers up its picks for the best music on tap at Summerfest. This year, we added a different approach, asking some national authors who are visiting Milwaukee in the coming weeks to look at the schedule and tell us who, if they had their druthers, they'd be sure to catch at the Big Gig in 2013. And, hey, Pitbull, wanna co-write a book?

The Chickadees
If you don't think your toddler is quite ready for The Scorpions or Heartless Bastards, don't fret. The Big Gig still has something for you and your little ones. Milwaukee's own The Chickadees plays at the Northwestern Mutual Children's Theater & Playzone on Thursday, June 27 at noon.
