Friday night's performance by Dorky Park at On the Boards was surreal on many fronts. Seattlest was running late for the show, and as we screamed past Queen Anne Ave N. on Roy street with zero idea where we'd be able to park, someone pulled out of a street parking spot one block from OtB. We slid into the spot and then into the theater, where we promptly scored a seat dead-center in the fifth row (the primary benefit of attending anything solo, there' s usually an orphaned seat like that). The lights dimmed, and came back up on a stunning dark-haired woman, center stage wearing a bombshell red dress with matching red heels. It all went to hell from there. more ›

For approximately the nine millionth time, Seattlest implores you to experience the musical majesty that is "Awesome." Simply put, we love this band---they are a hilarious group of guys and truly talented musicians to boot. They're playing an early show tomorrow night at the Mirabeau Room, an event that serves as a preview of their upcoming epic art/music/comedy extraordinaire noSIGNAL, debuting a month from now at On the Boards. Tomorrow night's set will feature some of the new noSIGNAL material and, assuredly, many of their classic hits. Also in attendance: everybody's favorite afroed luvaman Reggie Watts. Like most people in town, Seattlest has a giggly schoolgirl crush on Reggie, as he is one charming big-haired man. more ›

Poor little kittens who've lost their mittens, as well as pubgoers who've drunkenly or boneheadedly left sweaters, scarves, who knows what behind: now's your chance to buy it back. more ›
