Health/Dark Chisme @ The Showbox Seattle 4/2
Scored a last minute ticket to this show tonight in case anyone is also going. I'll probably do the 1st Thursday Art Walk prior. First time buying an 'authorized resale' ticket at a discount via AXS.

@Jim Storie I saw them at KEXP when they did a live session. I really liked Dark Chisme and Desire. Glad you had fun.

@Jim Storie I already have my tix for Audioasis Live. See y’all there!
Speaking of show etiquette
Do you wear a band's t-shirt to their live show?

@Benedetto Manzella Agreed. I often get comments on my shirt when its from a previous tour, that creates a bonding moment "Ah, I saw that tour too!" I have Neko Case & NIN shirts dating back 20+ years. Its especially fun when bands I saw aeons ago come around again and I still have old t-shirts, like Bikini Kill, OMD, Gang of Four, X etc. 🤠
When do you arrive at the show?
Doors open at 7. Opening band starts at 8. The headliner starts at 9-ish. When do you show up? Obvs this is dependent on who is playing, but let's go for averages. Your tendencies. What's your gut reaction?

Totally depends on the opening act. Sometimes, that's who I'm coming to see! On a multi-show run (like same artist 2-3 in a row) I may see the opener once then skip them if they didn't thrill me. Case in point: Neko Case's most recent shows - I love Destroyer, but not really as a solo act with just an an acoustic guitar. Same for John Grant - "The Queen of Denmark" is an amazing record, but so much is missing for me when it's just him and a keyboard.
For fans of dark, moody synth pop
I highly recommend the new solo album by Jess Weiss from the band Fear of Men. She goes by the name New German Cinema, and the album is called Pain Will Polish Me.

Added to my Bandcamp wishlist! Check out the band "Leathers" for a similar vibe.
A stranger in Seattle!
I'm going to be visiting Seattle with my family the first weekend of April, and think it would be cool to meet some of my fellow music community nerds who reside in the Seattle area. If anyone is be up for a hangout / meetup at Live On Mars in Cap HIll one of those days, please reply to this post and we'll figure something out. Maybe we'll get more than a couple of people and I'll call ahead and try to reserve a space? Who knows. Even if only one or two people are up for it, I'd love to have an extra reason to pay a visit to the bar and patronize the kind of place that I could only wish existed in the town I live in. I'm planning for either Thursday, April 2nd or Friday, April 3rd - so let me know if you want to join on either day. Depending on responses and schedules yet to be determined, I'll pick a day that works and we'll see who can make it.

@Robert Erbes Turns out I have a theater tech shift that starts at 5:30p nearby, so I could only meet with you from 4:30-5-ish... LMK if that still works. I'm working www.moisturefestival.org in case that interests you. Shows are happening all weekend.

@Robert Erbes Great! See you there. I'll have my KEXP - To Keep Kids on Radio hat on.
