Seattle Subsonic

Happiness… is a Cheap Beer.

August 22nd, 2008

Last night, The Seattle Subsonic Happy Hour at MOE Bar went over like a Twinkie at fat camp. The turnout was good enough to warrant this becoming a monthly event, the next happening Thurs Sept 18th and then the third Thurs of each following month. Mark it down! Do it!

It was great to see everyone who made it out as we loaded our guts with $2 beers and unloaded a giant pile of CDs, tickets and other music schwag. Nobody was kidnapped by roving bands of bike messengers and evidence points to everyone making it out of the bar on their own accord (though that might NOT be a sign of a good party). Some would call that successful.

Special thanks to Light in the Attic Records for being present and for bringing a box full of goodies. There were some damn happy folks leaving MOE Bar that night with prize packages that were practically LITA’s entire catalog. One can only assume it will help to spread the good word. Kudos to The Liars Club for making an appearance and handing all the kiddies a free copy of their EP. If you didn’t get one, you can download the EP Free here. The Liars Club plays the Bit Saloon in Ballard this Saturday night (Aug 23rd). I recommend dropping any other plans you may have as they intend to blow the front windows right the frick outta the place. Members of Safe Passage Clause also swung in with copies of their new EP and C-Leb had tentative news of an full-length album releasing Oct 31st. You’ll be hearing more about both very soon. Universal Music deserves a bow for supplying great pile of goodies for give-aways as well. (This it starting to sound like the friggen Oscars, isn’t it..? “I’d like to thank the bartenders, and Miller for making the High Life, and…” OK, enough already.)

Here’s to seeing repeat offenders for Sept 18th… and to aspirin… guh.

And now… back to the music.
