Go here. The poor girl is addicted to Chicken McNuggets and eats only them.
My whirlwind week ended the night of January 26th with The Voodoo Glowskulls and Authority Zero headlining at Seattle’s EL Corazon. Unfortunately I missed the first band, Success!, but arrived just in time for a full set by Skyfox. Skyfox is a four-piece similar in look and sound to Blink 182. Singer Johnny Hill even …
Hi, I, along with Mr. Murphy, work at Franklin. While I appreciate everyone who went to the protest, the kind of language used does not help unify us, but rather divides. Specifically, to imply that if we didn’t go to the protest it means we don’t care is simply untrue, and very narrow-minded. I care …
On January 25th I headed out on a chilly, rainy night to catch Concrete Blonde at Seattle’s Neptune Theater. I’ve seen Concrete Blonde two or three times prior, but I’ll see them 100 more times if I can. When Concrete Blonde initially came on stage, it looked like they were wearing skull masks and they …
What is the difference between Tommy Keene and the most famous singing guitar-slingers of the past couple of generations? Tommy Keene has never had a “My Sharona,” or a “Cruel To Be Kind.” Sure, he’s written and recorded so many gems, his guitar cases are lined with semi-precious glitter — but the power-pop singer/songwriter’s storied …
Meet Tonight Alive. The lead singer for this Australian band is really hot, and there’s no arguing with hot. This song, Starlight, is the band’s second single in the US. Their next album, What Are You So Scared Of?, will be released on Valentine’s Day because anyone with a y chromosome will be in love …
It takes a lot to entertain me these days, but this vid and song by the Phenomenal Handclap Band does the trick. You may view the video here. Here’s what the band’s publicists have to say about it: New York’s cosmic-disco ensemble, Phenomenal Handclap Band propels us into their retro-futuristic styled world with the release …
On Tuesday January 24th, Seattle Public School teachers and students were forced to leave school three hours early due to a negotiated furlough day. In protest, the Seattle Education Association organized picketing events at a handful of prominent locations around town. The location closest to where I teach was at the five corners where I-5 …
Tuesday evening after working, standing on a picket line, then working again, I headed to Seattle’s King Cat Theater. NOFX were headlining. I have only seen NOFX at Warped Tour and have been wanting to see them at their own show for ages. Unfortunately the last time they were here they sold out before I …
As most of you are aware, the San Francisco 49ers ended their season in dramatic fashion, losing the NFC Championship Game in overtime to the New York Giants due to a turnover on special teams and a subsequent field goal . Since the 49ers had won many of their games in the same way during …
Kearney Barton – The man who engineered the original Northwest sound when recording the Sonics and Kingsmen, amongst others, has died.
Here’s someone who has that ubiquitous almost famous look, like he was in a band, or has been there/done that, but nobody can quite spot/identify him. I keep running into him, and then saw him on record store day leafing thru stuff at Sound Fix in the Village. Some fan stared at him a bit …
Go here for the Wired magazine coverage of the decision. Here’s a background podcast on the case, made shortly after the oral arguments were heard by the Supreme Court in this case.
1. Why is the pig riding a zip line? 2. Why is the pig enjoying it so much? 3. Why is the pig moving so fast that he overtakes the human on the adjoining zip line?
http://youtu.be/7ezeYJUz-84 Here’s the Youtube description: http://StarWarsUncut.com In 2009, Casey Pugh asked thousands of Internet users to remake “Star Wars: A New Hope” into a fan film, 15 seconds at a time. Contributors were allowed to recreate scenes from Star Wars however they wanted. Within just a few months SWU grew into a wild success. The …

On Saturday January 21st, 2012, several hundred people from all walks of life joined together in an event sponsored by Occupy Seattle. The occasion was the second anniversary of The Supreme Court of the United States declaring that corporations are people and have the right to free speech, and thus, may now contribute as much …
