Piecora’s Pizza Is Now A Music Venue, Too

February 12th, 2010

Raise your hand if your favorite memory of Piecora’s Pizza on E. Madison St. is post-grade school soccer game grub fests. Yep, me too. CYO, BABY! The long-standing New York-style pizzeria has decided recently (I think) to get into the music biz. Why not? Everyone else is doing it. It’s not like there’s a dearth of bands out there to occupy your calendar with. Chop Suey is just a few blocks down the hill and makes for some nice competition.

.

It’s called Piecora’s Back Room and shows are presented by Radio Free Seattle. Here’s the current schedule:

.

February:
12th – Sue Quigley, Trevor Lee Ridge
13th – Manooghi Hi, Deseo Carmin
19th – The Glass Notes (Robb Benson’s new project), Sean P. Bates
26th – Ghost Lobby, Osaka Explosion
27th – Astronomer Royal, The High End

March:
5th- Ryan Looman of Smile for Diamonds, Whitney Ballen, Peter Hanks
12th – theZim & ARock, Mesa & Ari, Hannalee w/Matt Knotter of Shim
13th – Conservative Dad, Shining Skulls
19th – Tamara Power-Drutis, Aliya Hashemi, Scott Weltzer

.
Do I know who any of these bands are? No, not really. I’ve heard Smile For Diamonds. But who cares. Great pizza and another opportunity to use your ears for good. Instead of that darned evil.
