LASERS! LASERS! LASERS! LASERS!

When you tell people you are going to see a laser show at the LaserDome, they tend to raise an eyebrow all askance and make assumptions about your - as they say on Craigslist - "420 friendliness". But the laser show at the Pacific Science Center is not just for stoners. Laser shows are great for people who like good music, colors, lights and things that make you say 'Whoa'. Yeah, there are some potheads there, but you don't necessarily have to be baked to enjoy having a great time looking at cool things and jamming out to great music. You just need a couple of bucks and an open night because opportunity abounds to blow your mind.

It seems no one has actually been to the laser show "since high school" but you need to change that. It's is one of the single greatest ways to spend an hour in all of Seattle. We defy you to be uninterested in at least one of these offerings: Laser Sublime, Laser Michael Jackson, Laser Zepplin, Laser Tool, Laser Bob Marley (lol), Laser Floyd: Dark Side of the Wall (seriously a classic and a must see), Laser Beatles and an obvious star in the laser repertory, Laser Queen. Every show is a live performance, with the laser DJ (LJ?) controlling and operating the lasers all by hands, responding to the cheers and gasps of the audience. You can see shows 5 nights a week, and through Labor Day there are 30-minute matinees for families. Like we said, lasers are fun for all.
