Given Iowa's raging love for biking, we couldn't let bike month pass with nary a mention. Check it out -- beloved East Village shop Domestica has a lineup of bike posters, glasses, and other housewares.

We have to say, we love the video producer Kathy Landin made for Market Day's latest show.

"Make. Market. Love." That sounds good to us.

Facebook says Market Day is on Saturday from 8 AM to 1 PM in the Kirkwood Building downtown. See you there.

First off, who else is going to MAHA this August? The Flaming Lips are headlining. Sure, they played DSM a couple years ago -- but they have a new album and an always-entertaining show.

Okay, now to the real news: MAHA has a new identity, made by Omaha shop Oxide Design.

Of the rebrand, they say:

[We] looked to evoke the lore of the Maha while simultaneously capturing the festival’s key elements: pride, place, and independence. We found the perfect solution in the great chief of the Maha, Chief Blackbird. The Maha were the most powerful Native American tribe of the Great Plains — a people whose name inspired our city’s, and then the festival’s. Oxide developed a modern symbol for the Chief that hints at the visual style of the Plains Indians, but is still pure rock n’ roll.
