When you’re in Seattle, you’ve got to make time to hear some great music.
There are lots of venue options to choose from, but I’d strongly recommend fitting in an evening at the Triple Door. It’s located beneath Wild Ginger restaurant, and across from Benaroya Hall, and offers a couple of options within the same building: […]

Seattle is not the kind of place where you need to plan months in advance for things. Oh sure, there are the big concerts, opening nights, and a few random restaurants where you can’t wait till the last minute. However, most places in the Seattle area, with a week or so of notice, you’ll be […]

Location: Seattle’s famous Pike Place Market, located at the foot of Pike Street (First & Pike). This time of year, you can go during the week and avoid much of the crowds. During the summer it’s jammed with people, no matter the day or time. At the market, you’ll find great produce, meats, fish, and handicrafts […]

There were certain bodily functions that we were all taught should never be done in public, and, in fact, shouldn’t even be talked about. This weekend all that changes, when the Pacific Science Center presents Grossology: The (Impolite) Science of the Human Body.
The exhibit deals with all sorts of those unmentionable sounds, gasses, fluids, and […]

“The boat show, the boat show. . . . “
I remember when those words, set to a catchy little tune, were run on the radio to announce that the Seattle Boat Show was about to burst onto the scene.
I’m not sure how long ago those spots ran (showing my age, I guess), but the Seattle […]

As cold as it’s been in Seattle lately, here’s a chance to warm up at “Fire Season” by Paul Chatem, now on exhibit through the end of January at Bluebottle Art Galley.
