As you can see, today we launched a new design for Gut Check and the other RFT blogs. It's a work-in-progress -- the monthly archives, for example, should return soon -- but I'm pretty damn happy with it.That said, if you encounter any problems or notice any bugs, please shoot me an e-mail at ian.froeb@riverfronttimes.com with BLOG PROBLEM as the subject, and I'll pass along the issue to our Web team.This is just the beginning of what should be a year of exciting developments for Gut Check.

In recent weeks, the RFT launched a new music newsletter. The weekly email (which arrives late, late Thursday into Friday morning) has information about local shows we didn't cover, local news tidbits, early warnings on forthcoming concerts, ticket giveaways, blog highlights, Tweets and more! In short, it's a handy-dandy cheat sheet to weekend music goings-on. To sign up for it, click here.
Per a Livenation email this morning, Lady Gaga will be returning to St. Louis this summer, on July 17 at the Scottrade Center. Ticket info/prices is TBA. Gaga's January 7 show at the Fox was one of the hottest tickets in town -- and so should this one. Last week, the video for "Telephone" -- featuring Beyonce -- hit the Internet, and became your one-stop shop for jailhouse lesbian hook-ups, Tarantino-isms, mass murder and product placements. Enjoy!
