St.LouisFilter: What e-mail lists and websites do you, as a St. Louisan or someone who lives nearby, consider essential for keeping up-to-date on local events, art, music, politics, food, etc.?

(I'm going to subscribe to all of them.)

There's not much out there. KDHX has a lot of info about shows, etc. For some reason i'm on Pop's mailing list - they send free tickets to subscribers for their worst shows (lotsa cover bands out there!). I mostly use the RFT site if i'm wanting to find something to do.

What used to be saucecafe.com (is now saucemagazine.com) is pretty good on the restaurant scene. I live in Columbia but go into StL often, and I'm kind of a foodie, midwestern version.

Second Riverfront Times for general stuff.

Not sure, but if you're interested in local events you should check the Repertory Theatre of St.Louis's website regularly. They do awesome shows all year.
