Read MoreHouston native, RiFF RAFF played at Denton's very own Rockin' Rodeo last Thursday, and it was a real treat, y'all. We had no idea what to expect when first walking into the club on a Thursday. Who the hell goes to see RiFF RAFF during finals week in Denton, we asked? Turns out, its a lot of college-aged, hazy-eyed teens and young twenty somethings. No judgement, guys. We were there, too. Click through for more.
Read MoreHere's this week's edition of What We Did, our weekly photo recap of the past seven days. It looks as if it has been a pretty danged good week, too.

Read MoreDon’t let the threat of flooding or tornados get you down. We’ve got a week chock full of stuff to do and people to see including Riff Raff at Rockin’ Rodeo. We’re trying to imagine what that will be like but we can’t. So we are going to put a bounty on a photo of Mr. Raff that is tagged #WDDI. May the odds be forever in your favor.

Read MoreLast week, the Denton Record Chronicle published an editorial that enumerated on a few issues some claim are plaguing the Denton downtown square. Among the issues are parking, noise, the types of businesses that are attracted to the square and an overall lack of family-friendly atmosphere. You can read the whole thing here. Dentonite Dave Sims (and many others) took umbrage to the piece. This mindset hasn't just been seen in that one location, however. A few City Council candidates in the election that ended on this past Saturday ran on issues related to downtown Denton being a dangerous place in need of more police presneece. Below, you can find Sims thoughts on why the DRC article is out of touch with the current state and direction of downtown Denton. Read through it and let us know your thoughts in the comments!
Read MoreWhat We Did is our weekly roundup of photos that WDDI staff and readers have taken over the past seven days. It's our excuse to talk about the weather, local sports teams, and the like. you can bet your ass that we're going to talk about the weather this week. We did have a flipping tornado, after all. And we aren't the only ones talking about the weather this (strangely) sunny morning. In fact, a good percentage of your tagged photos were weather-related because Denton is full of amateur storm chasers. So we hope you like dramatic skies and whatnot.
