I need your help.

I know this is something that I can google, but I wanted to get an opinion from people who actually live in these places.

What is your local equivalent of Gambit Weekly or Offbeat Magazine?

Edited: Meant to post this link to US alternative papers (many weeklies), but got carried away as below. Ahem.

FYI, not really your question, just for fun:
Champaign-Urbana, Illinois: used to be The Octopus, seems to have defunct online link
Madison, Wisconsin: The Isthmus
Vancouver, British Columbia: The Georgia Straight (Wikipedia entry)

I love Creative Loafing. I had no idea it had "cousins" in other cities.

Excuse me for being a bit off-topic, but I just couldn't resist when I saw the thread title. [Big Grin]

"We rock Philadelphia Baltimore Las Vegas Indianapolis
Louisville Atlanta New Orleans and Minneapolis
Houston Tucson Phoenix Buffalo
Tulsa Mobile Albuquerque Wichita and Orlando
Portland Salt Lake City Memphis Washington D.C.
Charlotte Oklahoma City Little Rock and Milwaukee
Cleveland Tampa Norfolk Dallas Raleigh Hartford Cincinatti
Boston Nashville Kansas City Chattanooga and Miami
Honolulu Richmond Austin Pittsburgh San Antonio
Baton Rouge and Anchorage and Birmingham and Toledo
Denver Detroit Dayton Spokane Fresno
And Jacksonville Colombus Springfield New York Sacramento
Los Angeles St. Paul St. Louis San Francisco
Madison Knoxville Seattle San Jose and San Diego
Jackson Omaha Des Moines Boise Providence Chicago
But no where in New Jersey that's the only place we won't go"
