Where: Elliott Bay Book Company

Date: 2007-12-06 19:30:00

Type:

Ranging back over the past few years--to the 2004 campaign and thereabouts to quite recently--this book carries some of the most pithy, and picturesque commentary on the farce/tragedy that is the current administration ('all hat, no cattle') and its misdoings ... with plenty of local colors drawn in, for good measure.

Klondike 5

Where: The Sunset (Formerly the Sunset Tavern)

Date: 2008-01-25 19:00:00

Type:

A sound that is at once both familiar and new, this Seattle-based foursome delivers a folk-funk-rock styling that has been dubbed "powerful", "progressive", "heart-felt" and "fun." Drawing on as many artists and styles as KL5 has fingers and toes, with an acoustic appeal and a heavy electrical charge, their music and their sound tells a story, creates a mood, or just rocks.
