NWMB Recommends - Seattle Concerts for March

Author Kevin LeDoux   Filed under Music   February 29, 2008  

Detroit cobrasThis March, Seattle has a huge lineup of great bands to continue where February left off. This month, again, I’d have to say that the High Dive in Fremont probably has the best schedule going - and beyond that - they’re GIVIN’ it away. Two free shows. One on St Patrick’s Day and another on March 8th with the Blakes and the Detroit Cobras! Other highlights of the month include the finals for Seattle’s SOUND OFF! the under 21 battle of the bands raging on at the EMP for the past month, Tiny Vipers at the Triple Door, and a rockin night on March 20th at Seattle’s newest venue, King Cobra. As always, I’ve got links to all recommended bands as well as some MP3’s hooked up so you can check out what we’re going on about.

Blakes and Cops @ Croc Oct 5th

Author Kevin LeDoux   Filed under Music, Upcoming   September 20, 2007  

jesus_is_my_coach.jpgI think I may have discovered the best thing this year. Yes, something even better than a statuette of Jesus teaching kids how to kick ass in the name of the lord. How can it be you ask. Such a statuette would be inspiring as well as elegant.

Well, before you pu-pu my claims, let me explain. 2 local sensations, the Blakes, and the Cops are billed to play TOGETHER at the Crocodile on Friday, October 5th. Yes, my friends, the thing that puts it over the top.. it’s not even a school night. Praise be to little 9lb 5oz baby Jesus!

Hi-YA!

Both of these bands are known for their live performances, and this is slated to be the release party for the Blakes new CD, which-if it even remotely compares to the last one-should be fantastic.

So it looks like you can grab tix at Sonic Boom, or your favorite rip-off online joint for $8 (+ripoff)

Go forth and rock. See ya there.
I’ll be the one with the halo.
