Seattle Sept 22-25: Decibel Festival

Tue Aug 2 17:21:41 EDT 2005

Quoting Deeann Mikula Hartmann <deeann at d33ann.com>:

We should have these problems. In Pittsburgh, one must also choose between
several different things to do. However, most of them are simplistic,
parochial-minded things to do mostly involving some small group of friends
(like, after going to the latest mediocre art opening with several half-assed
local bands, whether to cap it off with a house party or a night at Gooski's).
In Seattle, your problem of overabundance and underinformation could be solved
by a simple application of The Stranger, followed by an internet search for
music and facts. At least, I would hope.
