One more quick post during my lunch break because they're is so much going on. I've known about this for quite awhile, but forgot to post because I knew I couldn't attend. I'll be lounging on a beach for a week on the northshore of Oahu next week instead. Anyways, there is a fun event this weekend in West Seattle much like the Fremont Solstice and U-District Street Fair. The West Seattle Summer Fest takes place on that awesome California Ave strip where Easy Street Records and the West-5 are located. It's a street fair with all sorts of cool stuff, food, and of course music. The headliner on Friday is none other one of Seattle's best Mudhoney!! It's alot of fun, Mudhoney will rock your socks off, and Easy Street has great deals on Vinyl!! I attended a few years ago when John Doe of X was there. He played a great acoustic set of a bunch of X songs and his own songs as well, but the highlight was the vast amounts of vinyl and cd's for sale outside Easy Street for super cheap. I think the records were $1 a piece, great travelers! Check out all the info at http://www.westseattlefestival.com/.
Here's the details from Easy Street's site about their sale:
The West Seattle Summerfest starts tomorrow (Friday) and continues through the weekend in the West Seattle Junction! Stop by and say hi and take advantage of rock-bottom prices on used LPs ($1 each/12 for $10), CDs ($2 each/3 for $5) and DVDs ($3 each/4 for $10) displayed outside of our WS store. The highlight of the fest's free music lineup is undoubtedly Mudhoney, playing Friday at 8:10 pm on the Alaska Stage (42nd & Alaska).
See ya in a week!

I want to go to that sale and show and I live in Wisconsin-for christ's sake. Probably a good thing, since I'd blow money I don't have on cds and vinyl. I'm still jealous. :)
