So glad band practice was Thursday and not Friday! With the power out, it would have been chilly and very dark in the studio. We were playing acoustic in any case, so we would have figured something out. My condolences to anyone in North Seattle who wanted to turn on an amp between 6 and 8 pm.
This week's picks:
Darling Rollercoaster
This perhaps takes a love of amusement parks a bit too far.
The Flannel Attractions
Either a Northwest love story or a sign that you need to use fabric softener.
Puddlestompers
Don't curse the rain. Put on your boots and stomp!
Under the Bodhi Tree
Rock & roll enlightenment.
XVIII Eyes
There's something familiar here. I thought it might be a tribute band, but it appears early Square Pig fave Eighteen Individual Eyes has decided to respell their name. This way got my attention, too, so I guess they get to appear twice.
Naming a band is an act of concentrated creative expression. Square Pig in a Round Hole exists to reward five favorite band names each week. Winners are listed alphabetically. Selection is wholly unscientific and subject to whim, with a bias toward wordplay, humor, and local flavor. In most cases, I won't know anything about the bands at the time of selection. Thanks to the Seattle Times club listings for abundant source material!
