Upcoming Sometimes I Forget that You Can See Music for Free in Record Stores
posted by on February 4 at 15:26 PM
Sometimes it’s nice to stand amongst the racks of CDs and records and watch a good band play a show with the lights on to people half paying attention to them and half looking for the new Les Savy Fav record. In-stores are free, and a good way to see a band if you don’t feel like staying up late of stand in a stinky club full of drunks who try to tell you about why they’re new project is so much better than their old project even though they don’t have a drummer yet. Sometimes it’s just nice to have a change of scenery.
Here’s a wrap-up of who’s playing in local record stores this month (neither Wall of Sound or Bop Street has anything on their calendars yet, but maybe you know something I don’t?):
KIMYA DAWSON at Easy Street Records, Queen Anne, Saturday February 9th, 3 pm.
THE HEAVENLY STATES at Easy Street Records, Queen Anne, Saturday February 16, 3 pm.
GRAND ARCHIVES at Sonic Boom Records, Ballard, Tuesday February 19th, 7 pm.
SPEAKER SPEAKER at Sonic Boom Records, Ballard, Wednesday February 20th, 7 pm.
J-MINUS at Silver Platters, Queen Anne, Friday February 22, 6:30 pm.
THE MOTHER TRUCKERS at Silver Platters, Queen Anne, Tuesday February 26, 4:30 pm.
TULLYCRAFT at Easy Street Records, Queen Anne, Friday February 29th, 8 pm.

"...try to tell you about why they’re new project is so much better than they’re old project even though they don’t have a drummer yet."
"They're" is a contraction of "they are". You probably meant to use the possessive form of "they" , which is "their" .
Louis, cut her a little slack, OK? I'm sure the little grammar mistake was just brought on by Megan's trauma over that awful, torturous aspect of being a music journalist... You know, actually talking with musicians of whom she is not already a big fan. And in the presence of people drinking alcohol! I can't imagine the horror of it all. It must be so offensive the way they seek her out and relate what they're doing, just because she happens to write about music for the Stranger. Maybe she should refrain from attending these dangerous shows?
@2 Oh jesus christ, dude. Calm down. I was kidding.
