Value Village Record Bin Watch

Mike Nipper — Fri, 05 Apr 2013 13:27:27 -0700

FINALLY! Until this week the records at our local ValVil were basically resting ON THE FLOOR, spine out, and on a single rack, which made browsing way more time consuming and REALLY awkward. Seriously, you had crouch down and duck walk the length while pushing a few hundred crappy records back and forth just to see the artist/titles. Oof!

Nipsh

Thanks ValVil, now my daily record creep won't be so ass cracky for the rest of your shoppers.

TH3RDZ - "Boobiewho's"

Larry Mizell, Jr. — Mon, 17 Dec 2012 19:03:17 -0800

Behold this this Sonny Bonoho-featuring, 10.4 Rog lounger from TH3RDZ (the tandem of Candidt, XP, and JFK), dealing with the Boobiewho phenomenon:

Boobiewhos
[boo b whos] noun, verb, bobbiewhoing.
noun
1. A person who plays you small until you blow up.
2. Catcher of the vapors.
3. Shallow person.
4. Bandwagoner.
5. Snake in the basket awaiting charming.

Consider yourself brought up to speed.

Sonny is a master of the nonsensical hook just as Candidt is one of minting pimp-uncle slang; hard to say which one of them thought up the title of this song and it's meaning—but I'd guess Candidt, who takes point when it comes to the vibe of TH3RDZ. Also, OBVIOUSLY, his dramatic turn as "Thirsty" is incredible. JFK finally puts to rest any rumors that he and Bonoho are the same person. XP just got off a two month tour with some guy named Macklemore, and is no doubt fully charged from a string of sold-out packed shows, so expect more—such as their long-awaited This, That & TH3RDZ LP—from these three in 2013.

Best New Place For Sunday Night Karaoke!

Bree McKenna — Fri, 07 Dec 2012 16:35:52 -0800

"Where have all the cowboys goooooonnnnnnneee..."

Sometimes those little rooms in Rock Box can get stupid expensive, and the Crescent (although always glorious in its own right) gets too crowded and takes forever to get your song in. Luckily I found my new favorite Karaoke place on Capitol Hill, Lucky 8's China House (next to Chop Suey.) Karaoke happens every Sunday, plus they serve super delicious organic Chinese food without MSG all late so you don't get food-tired while you are drinking a million cheap beers. The lovely staff didn't even get mad at me when I was the annoying drunk person who accidentally broke a beer bottle during the singing of Paula Cole's hit "Where Have All The Cowboys Gone."

Dance Party Capitol Hill

Emily Nokes — Wed, 07 Nov 2012 14:34:05 -0800

Capitol Hill around 10th and Pike was HAPPENING last night. On our way home, Pike was blocked off at Broadway by a beautiful sea of drunk and happy revelers. You don’t drive by a giant street party without stopping, obviously—we parked and RAN INTO THAT FUN PILE.

A red hatchback was parked in the middle of the crowd with speakers bungeed to the roof. The brave, mobile DJ was playing all the hits—"I Will Always Love You" being the most tearful—while everyone danced, threw up, sang, frenched, took their shirts off, smoked weed, drank 40s, ate Fritos, and swayed through the madness on each others’ shoulders.

Last night was awesome. The future finally looks like… the future! Way to go everyone!

Thaddeus David - "Sir Lancelot" (f/ Nacho Picasso & Avatar Darko)

Larry Mizell, Jr. — Tue, 30 Oct 2012 17:45:15 -0700

Here's some spooky, slow-drag rap from the former 1/3rd of SOTA, now on his second solo album, the just-released Trapital Trill (whose name alone qualifies this post for a "Two Block Radius" tag). Thad is havin' visions in the water closet, or just tripping balls while his date plays dolphin. Nacho who's opening line "Dark" plays perhaps the most cocky and self-assured suicide victim—though it is homegirl who kicks the chair out from underneath his Sub Pop edition SB Dunks, so maybe it's a murder, or at least a collaboration. Lastly, Av is like Sam The Butcher, bringin' Alice the meat—making an unholy mess out of some poor animal's former ribs. BBQ, anyone?

13th and Pine and the Lipstick Lady

Emily Nokes — Mon, 17 Sep 2012 14:27:52 -0700

A few years ago, I was driving up East Pine Street, just about to pass 13th, when I almost wrecked my car into the Cuff because SEQUIN COATED TUTUS were hanging from the parking-lot trees across the street. I immediately pulled over (safety first) to get a better look. It turned out there was a WHOLE ENTIRE STORE of gaudy nonsense!

And the Lipstick Lady. I wish I could remember her name. She had the brightest pink lipstick smeared across her lips (and also teeth). We mostly talked about the zodiac's personality assignments. I mentioned my October birthday was coming up, and the next thing I knew, she was wrapping a giant piece of gold lamé around me and insisting I try on that lipstick. "Libras and metallic fabric make an ESPECIALLY good match."

The junk store didn't seem to have regular hours, or even a name. I meant to go back, but never got around to it. When I was walking to work, I watched the building get torn down.

More empty condos!

GIRL ARMY!!! Cranks It Up 10 Notches

Anna Minard — Thu, 06 Sep 2012 17:27:30 -0700

This is what's across the street today:

KELLY O
WHAT IS RAPE CULTURE? Rape Jokes. Fear culture. Dinner ≠ Booty. Disney??? Why is the victim on trial? One "No" is rape. Because it happens & did to me.

I thought I had a lot to say about it. I thought I had something insightful to offer, to add to the conversation. Something about solidarity. Something about how it's hard and painful to read a giant wall full of words about rape. Something about how it makes me feel or what it makes me think. Something about how art that makes you uncomfortable, art that makes you confront things, is a good thing. But I guess I don't have much to say; I just want people to see this. This is why I live here. This makes me proud. This conversation is bigger than the poster wall, it's bigger than a blog. Let's keep having it. Thanks, Girl Army. I love coming to work every day and seeing what new madness you're exploding on that wall and around the hood. I like that it makes people uncomfortable. Rape should make you uncomfortable. Thanks to the people who are sharing personal stories on the wall, too. That's intense. Thank you.

KELLY O
What is rape culture? Rape culture is where rape & sexual violence is an accepted & expected norm. It supports violence against us & makes rape seem okay. It tells us it's our fault & tells the perpetrators it's their nature. Complicity in silence = rape culture. Rape jokes are not funny. How we dress does not mean yes.

KELLY O
"No" does not mean "convince me."

More pictures after the jump.

KELLY O
FIGHT BACK

KELLY O
Assuming you have the right to comment on everyone who walks by.

KELLY O
I had panic attacks instead of coming for FOUR YEARS. Many male partners didn't find this alarming.

Don't choke me if I don't ask for it!

Seattle Grrrl Army is Back!

Emily Nokes — Thu, 30 Aug 2012 13:35:27 -0700

Indeed.

I was walking home last night when I saw a group of girls and guys on the corner of 11th and Pine, in front of the ever-changing poster wall. It was Seattle Grrrl Army of course! A fresh bucket of pink paint was being stirred next to a pristine pile of white metal clothes hangers. One girl was holding a stack of regular looking posters (commercial posters advertising Erykah Badu or something, that looked to be the same as the 50 or so already stapled to the wall in a grid). I asked her what they were for, and she said she was moving some of them to another wall because, "we aren't trying to hurt the venues these posters are advertising."

This morning, I saw their finished work—the best new addition to the wall is the tangle of gruesome hangers dripping with red fabric and paint.

GIRL ARMY Fights Back!!!

Timothy Rysdyke — Thu, 23 Aug 2012 10:26:28 -0700

After PosterGIANT covered and destroyed Girl Army's manifesto the girls took to the streets once more.

And this is Doug Cox, the company president and founder of PosterGIANT. What's that you're holding in your hand Mr. Cox?

More pics after the jump..

Girl Army asked passersby to contribute by writing their own messages to add to the walls:

Re: GIRL ARMY!!!!!

Anna Minard — Wed, 22 Aug 2012 18:31:21 -0700

As commenter Seattle Peach points out, "Poster Giant can't exist without their clients." So if those posters really are for/connected to PAX Prime, as other commenters and bloggers have noted, I wonder what PAX thinks of the Poster Giant controversy? PAX has a reputation for being a relatively safe/lady-friendly nerd con, due to its anti-booth-babes stance and for having a decent anti-sexual-harassment policy (and apparently decent enforcement of both). Although, they did get taken to school last year over a but-I-though-our-rape-joke-was-hilarious situation (just google "dickwolves" for more info). So... I wonder if they'd mind that they're now maybe part of the current poster wall brouhaha? I have some e-mails out to see if I can get an answer.

UPDATE: The posters are for Hawken, a game by Adhesive Games, who have a booth at PAX Prime, which they direct you to on their poster. But the posters don't seem sponsored in any way by PAX itself. Poster Wall War 2012 continues. PAX's involvement = pretty dang nonexistent.

Re: GIRL ARMY!!!!! (Is Back to Kick Poster Giant in the Balls)

Brendan Kiley — Wed, 22 Aug 2012 16:31:10 -0700

Posts about today's battle in the ongoing war between Poster Giant—a poster company largely regarded as a gorilla-bully—and everybody else in the city are below. Poster Giant routinely wallpapers the building across the street from Stranger HQ with whatever is the going concern: concert ads, car ads, convention ads. They even have a reputation for covering up posters for shows and events that haven't happened yet, which is extraordinarily poor form.

But some people think that Poster Giant, which doesn't pay rent on those walls, nor owns those walls, nor has any kind of legitimate legal claim on those walls, needs a kick in the nuts. Last night, somebody put up a bunch of feminist posters with the words "girl army" scrawled in spray paint. This morning, some dude from PG covered up some of that with some posters for some video game. A few minutes ago, a woman showed up to fuck with PG by spray-painting "OH POSTER GIANT, UP YOURS!" (I'm sure you all get the reference, but here's the song anyway, in case you haven't enjoyed it in awhile.)

The spray-painter identified herself as "Sam—I'm a fucking feminist and have some fucking taste in public fucking space!" That's enough credentials for me.

What's your next move, PG? If I were you, I'd avoid grandstanding, give the people what they want on 11th Ave, and keep making money while earning social capital.

But I'll be curious to see what you decide to do.

Last night's work didn't even make it until noon today. Here's a picture of the poster hanger (presumably from Poster Giant, although he packed up his stuff and walked away before I could go outside and ask) photographing the freshly hung posters:

Let's see how long it takes for someone to come and poop (not literally! PLEASE not literally!) on Poster Giant's efforts...

Zion's Gate Records and 35th North Recovering from Car Wreck

Emily Nokes — Wed, 15 Aug 2012 11:33:33 -0700

Joe Moore
Zion's Gate damage

Our neighbors at Zion's Gate Records and 35th North, located at the corner of 11th and E Pike, are under construction after a car crashed into their shared entrance last Friday morning. I was contacted by Zion's Gate owner, Stephen Benbrook, (who has been on vacation during the debacle and will be returning to Seattle later this week) who said both businesses have been damaged considerably, but will remain open during their regular business hours.

Benbrook added that benefits and events for the businesses are in the works he would like to express his appreciation for community support past, present, and future.

Cars driving into buildings is still one of the most perplexing kinds of car wrecks.

Poster War Quick Draw

Emily Nokes — Tue, 14 Aug 2012 16:40:41 -0700

Posters go up, Poster Giant posters cover them up, posters go on top of those posters, a baby is born and an old person hates posters and the cycle of life continues.

The ciiiiiiiircle of life

Yesterday I noticed the initial batch of mostly white posters go up on the wall across the street. A man wielding a telescoping paste roller took his time covering up all the other posters on the wall with precision. The next time I looked out the window, probably a half hour later, there were these giant beautiful rusty Xs covering the posters!

Who made those stealthy Xs in broad daylight? Someone monitoring the wall by secret video camera? Someone with a ladder? A Stranger staff member?

ARTCADE! Flash Arcade @ Vermillion

Mike Ramos — Fri, 13 Jul 2012 13:23:09 -0700

Chelsea Mannella

Flash Arcade, a "traveling arcade" made up of local enthusiasts Tim Uomoto and Sean Bray's personal collection of retro video game machines, is now on display at gallery/lounge Vermillion. Among the 18 games, all available for 50 cents or less per play, are five pinball machines, three shooting games complete with fake plastic guns, an old-school Street Fighter II and a new(er)-school Marvel vs. Capcom 2 (!!!), and classic multiplayer side-scrolling beat-em-ups like X-Men and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Not too long ago these bulky things were everywhere: restaurants, laundromats, 7-11s, malls. Now there have been seven "console generations" and you can play Modern Warfare against someone from Russia without leaving your couch. The oversized, stubborn (Time Crisis II and T2: Judgment Day were broken, and Uomoto had to open up the X-Men machine to fix it at one point) machines are the definition of obsolete, making them the ultimate piece of nostalgia for a very specific age group. People who were older when these games were popular saw them as for kids, and anyone born after the introduction of 16- and 32-bit consoles—the same processing speed as most old arcade games—played them on a TV instead.

Chelsea Mannella
Arcade Owner Uomoto and Demolition Man

But for me, and probably anyone else who grew up in the '80s or '90s and spent a fair chunk of their youth feeding quarters into these giant boxes, the fun factor hasn't changed a bit. The difficulty levels of Flash Arcade's games seemed to be on a friendly setting to minimize frustration, and there are placards on top of the machines with interesting facts and anecdotes from video game history. The installation runs until August 4, and cover is free (unless the bar decides to charge $5 on a Friday or Saturday). Vermillion's regular music/DJ nights in the back bar are still going on, too—tonight is "The Jam" with DJs Specs Wizard, Able One, and Absolute Madman. What's not to like here?

If anyone wants it in Marvel vs. Capcom 2, feel free to challenge me and get that ass whupped. Full list of all of Flash Arcade's games below:

X-Men (4-player version)
Badlands
Pac-Man
Ms. Pac-Man
T2: Judgment Day
Time Crisis II
Area 51: Site 4
Street Fighter II: Champion Edition
Marvel vs. Capcom 2
Golden Axe
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
King of the Monsters 2
720
Twilight Zone (Pinball)
Johnny Mnemonic (Pinball)

The Comet Gets a New Mural

Kathy Fennessy — Fri, 06 Jul 2012 13:01:31 -0700

K.C. Fennessy
Sunday, July 1, 2012

I was walking past the Comet Tavern on Sunday when I noticed this precariously positioned gentleman painting a mural on the side of the wall. I walk past it often, yet I honestly can't remember what was there before, though I can make out the silhouette of a cow through the paint. As the mural says, the Comet was established in 1945, so I'd imagine that wall's been through some changes (last time I visited, Chris Estey was interviewing David Yow and Eugene Robinson).

Finished mural and detail below.

K.C. Fennessy
Wednesday, July 4, 2012

When I passed by three days later, it was finished (and the Comet was having a free show). The artist had added a second fish, a splash, and the word "best."

The beer appears to be "Northwest Best"

The Narwhal and 95 Slide: Open!

Bethany Jean Clement — Fri, 29 Jun 2012 16:14:42 -0700

The sprawling downstairs of the Unicorn opened last night, and it is just as insane-carnival-gorgeous as the ground floor. Capitol Hill Seattle has a Narwhal slideshow.

And 95 Slide, the sports bar where HG Lodge used to be, opened too. Again, CHS with the photos (hey, that's Derek Erdman's stuff!). Someone explained the name to me—it comes from this here incident in which "Ken Griffey Jr. scores in the bottom of the 11th inning in Game 5 of the 1995 ALDS to clinch the series for the Mariners"—but said then the Mariners didn't, um, "go to the show" or something, so that it's kind of like a good-on-a-sliding-scale type of thing.

Into the Woods: Every weekend, there's a long line to get into a forest-themed nightclub above the Butterfly Lounge above Grim's. What is going on up there?

Sarah Galvin — Sun, 10 Jun 2012 11:27:00 -0700

Timothy Rysdyke
THE WOODS Or at least here's the view from the dance floor.

When I visited the Woods on a Thursday night, DJ Nark was in a tree house–like booth up among the enormous exposed rafters playing the assortment of disco songs that make me love Nark. The crowd was sparse but dancing enthusiastically. I regretted the $4 tall can of Tecate I bought the moment I saw someone served a mason jar of whiskey. My disapproval of $4 tall cans would make me feel like an old man complaining that candy used to cost a nickel if I wasn't convinced Tecate is pretend beer that children made out of puddle water whose only cost should be buttons and pinecones.

Q Nightclub: a "Glam" and "Chic" New Club For Capitol Hill

Kelly O — Mon, 04 Jun 2012 10:59:36 -0700

SEATTLE, June 4, 2012 – Q Nightclub will open in a dramatic, converted auto rebuild space at 1426 Broadway at Pike Street in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Seattle. The 12,000-square-foot club is tentatively slated to open to the public Saturday, September 8, 2012.

Fueled by Seattle’s eclectic music scene and owners who were previously deeply involved in the New York City club scene, Q will give Seattle a space that gets back to the basics of what a club should be about: the best DJ’s on the planet playing on the finest sound system while also having the club act as a laboratory for emerging local musical talent. A club that has stunning interior design and lighting, and provides impeccable service to its customers, is also a must.

“We want to avoid the elitist attitudes of upscale lounges with separate VIP areas, and instead provide our customers with a cohesive, immediate relationship to the DJ, music, people, and the club itself which, ultimately, is the real star here,” says Scott Smith, managing partner of Q.

At Q, everyone is welcome. Open seven days a week, Q will serve as both an intimate lounge in the early evening and a full-blown nightclub later on, with the space easily convertible for their patrons comfort. The club will be able to provide a highly flexible configuration for a vibe appealing to those coming in after work for a cocktail and conversation as much as to those showing up for a night of dancing. [...]

[...] “Our goal has always been to cultivate as broad and eclectic

a customer base as possible, but one that has a matured and

cultivated appreciation for the kind of music we want to be

known for — electronic music.”

With that aim in mind, Q is uncompromising at every level—a bit glam and a bit chic, but still very Seattle casual through and through, with service and presentation that will set Q apart.
