Can't Miss It: Tuesday
HIPPIES UNITE: Innovative guitarist/singer/songwriter Keller Williams is a mainstay on the jamfolk scene and, much like Yonder Mountain Stringband (also on the bill tonight), is responsible for inspiring throngs of hippies to bounce and twirl. We've never caught him live, but we understand he puts on quite the show. He'll be at Marymoor tonight, blowing some minds.
7 p.m. // Marymoor Park // $29.50
IT TOOK A LOT OF MONEY TO START MY HEART: If bouncing and twirling isn't your thing, perhaps you'd prefer to spend an evening reclined, a bottle of wine, and a sensitive singer/songwriter singing to you from his stool. (Boy, we're pulling out all the folksinger stereotypes in today's Can't Miss It, aren't we? We kid because we love.) Seriously, though, James freaking Taylor is at Chateau Ste. Michelle tonight, and we can't really think of any better motivation that just saying "Hey, James Taylor is playing at Chateau Ste. Michelle tonight. Go!"
7 p.m. // Chateau Ste. Michelle // $59-125
NOT FOLK MUSIC: For anyone totally disinterested in folksingers and jam bands, there is a reading at Elliott Bay Books tonight by local (Bainbridge Island) author Jonathan Evison. His debut novel, All About Lulu, is about what happens when a "late-night radio host discovers a disturbing secret about his stepsister."
