Two-Block Radius / Street Have You Seen This Bass?
Posted by Dave Segal on Wed, May 23, 2012 at 11:01 AM
- Dave Segal/The Stranger
Some asshole stole this poor college student's bass guitar and he needs to get it back posthaste in order to fulfill his course work. Keep an eye out, if you could.

Two-Block Radius / Dust Bin / Conflict of Interest / Upcoming Dealing and Wheeling Records: The Big Dig @ Vermillion Sat. May 19
Posted by Dave Segal on Thu, May 17, 2012 at 11:11 AM
The Big Dig record show happens Sat. May 19 at Vermillion Gallery and Bar. It's open to the public from 3 pm to 8 pm with a $3 entry fee (early entry from 1 pm-3 pm costs $10—and you have to contend with Mike Nipper's elbows). More than 20 dealers from Seattle, Spokane, Portland, and even Detroit will be selling LPs and 45s of many different styles, offering a plethora of gems. The Big Dig always leaves my wallet depleted and my shoulders sore. To soundtrack your digging experience, several DJs—including selectors from the Dug crew, Brian Hill, Explorateur, and yours unruly—will be spinning crucial cuts that you probably won't be able to Shazam (including the Rufus Harley jam after the cut).

Two-Block Radius / Shit Talk When A Thrift Store Prices Thrift Store Records
Posted by Mike Nipper on Wed, Apr 25, 2012 at 2:15 PM
Every record nerd has seen this while out digging at thrift stores. A sales associate in charge of media, trying to take charge, and, understandably, hoping to get a little bit more blood from a stone, starts oddly and arbitrarily pricing their records above stock asking rate. Usually it's the Elvis/Beatles/Sinatra-type "known" artists' records the that priced up. Usually. God bless 'em and I've seen all kinds, but I don't think this record will sell at the stock ValVil rate of (ahem) $1.99 per "vinyls," so $3.99 SEEMS real hopeful! Any guess as to what album?

Jump the bump to see what record is worth a whopping four bones at the ValVil.

Two-Block Radius / Business Everyday Music Update
Posted by Dave Segal on Tue, Mar 20, 2012 at 8:30 AM
- Segal/The Stranger
On March 14, Everyday Music started moving merchandise from its 10th Ave location next to Elliott Bay Book Company into a cavernous parking garage across the street. Progress has been swift, as it looks like all the fixtures and bins are in place and are getting filled with stock. As the sign says, if all goes well, EM will be back in business by the end of the week. Oh, happy day…

...who's going to make it into a venue. Or, say, a mini golf course with a bar. That shit would just print money. I want five percent for coming up with the idea. I'll apply for the patent later.

Two-Block Radius / News / Business Everyday Music to Move in March... Across the Street
Posted by Dave Segal on Tue, Jan 24, 2012 at 10:53 AM
After a brief moment when its staff thought it would have to close, Everyday Music will be moving into the current Diamond Parking Service garage in March—directly across the street from the Capitol Hill record store's 10th Avenue location. According to store manager David Miranda, EM needs to be out of its current spot by March 13. Diamond’s landlord agreed to cover the costs that would upgrade the building to city standards, which enabled Everyday Music to afford to shift its operations there. I, for one, am breathing a huge sigh of relief.

The Weather / Two-Block Radius / Tonight Overheard at Rancho Bravo: "I Don't Care If It Snows, I Got Tickets To THEESatisfaction Tonight..."
Posted by Kelly O on Tue, Jan 17, 2012 at 3:20 PM
Woman #1, eating a rice and bean bowl, no meat ($4.75) to Woman #2, eating nothing and reading the latest SGN: "You know, I don't care if it snows, I got tickets to THEESatisfaction tonight, and I'm going." Woman #2: "That's cool..." Woman #1: "I'm serious. They're AWE-SOME." Woman #2: "I SAID that's cool, and you should go."
I say they should both go to the show. I also say they should try the steaming hot chicken or pork pozole ($4) next time, with a side of grilled queso fresco ($1). But then again, it's really hard to change a vegetarian's mind.

Two-Block Radius / News Neumos Basement to Open as a 200 Capacity Venue, Tentative Open Date Is April 4
Posted by Grant Brissey on Mon, Dec 19, 2011 at 3:27 PM
Neumos owners Steven Severin, Jason Lajeunesse, and Mike Meckling are adding another bunker to their fortress of fun, music, and general debauchery, which already includes Neumos, the adjoined Moe Bar, and Fish Fry. The basement—formerly filled with junk from previous incarnations of the venue and a smaller VIP room—has been gutted, and construction is underway for the as-of-yet unnamed 21-and-over addition. Major structural changes to bring the space up to code will involve a dedicated entrance and stairway and downstairs bathrooms. They also plan to install major soundproofing between the new space and Neumos, as shows will take place in both venues simultaneously. "We're going to soundproof it like a bank vault," Severin says. "I told them I don't want to hear any bass, anything at all."
Severin says they plan on a art deco design with two bars, and the space will be versatile, able to host DJs and/or bands, or just stay open as a place to hang out. "We're going to be open seven nights a week," he says. "It will feel really cozy and comfortable. A place that will be nice for just chillin' and rocking out to bands or dancing. Lots of bands are going to be a better fit down there, and it's going to allow us to put on a LOT more local shows, which I'm really excited about." They'll eventually be hiring a dedicated talent buyer, but for now Severin and Lajeunesse will handle booking duties. Stay tuned to Line Out and we'll eventually get up some pictures of the buildout.

Is it fair game for anyone to post whatever they want on the Capitol Hill poster wall? Is it okay to wheat paste a poster that's almost 10 feet tall?

Also on sale now at the Capitol Hill Value Village.
Huh?! Eddie Rabbit has TWO Greatest Hits albums?!? AND was on Elektra?! I always hated Eddie Rabbit, seriously...and that his scruffy, furry, '70s post-hippie face is a, perhaps unknown to most contemporary hipsters, "contemporary hipster" fashion archetype...ugh. His music does, however, confirm that pop country, today's young country or whatever, has sucked for decades. Rabbit's only saving grace is he wrote one of my fave Elvis songs, "Kentucky Rain."
