Help Save Hell’s Kitchen TONIGHT
March 12th, 2009
Hell’s Kitchen in Tacoma is in a world of hurt. It’s not because they don’t have good shows, because they do! And it’s not because the shows they have aren’t well attended, because the kids love HK! It’s because they need to install a state of the art sprinkler system that is ogoing to cost the club over $60,000 because they need to pay the City of Tacoma $25,000 just to get enough water pressure so that the new sprinkler system will operate. In light of this, the good folks over at SeattlePunk.org have put together a show with the intention of saving the club.
.
And yet, this is more than justa show. Sure, there will be great performances from bands like Neon Nights and the Hollow Points, including the third to last Pacific Northwest show for soon-to-be-defunct Seattle pop-punk legends Dateless, but there will be so much more. The night is co-sponsored by the Northwest Chapter of the Gypsy Queens, an organization whose motto is “tats not tits,” as they seek to promote a positive image of women who have tattoos. The girls present (and there will be a lot of them) will be posing for photos with all of you concert goings, with the pictures being snapped by SeattlePunk.org’s staff of professional photographers. And for those of you who want to get your drink on, they will have $1.50 tall cans! This is a night you wont want to miss, so hop in your car, or ride the Sounder, and head down to Tacoma to help prevent another important venue in our music scene from going under!
