you may remember anthony from a sam remix shot… i saw him the day after i took these photos, and would have asked for another photo had i not been on my way to meet someone. his mix of pattern and accessories is spot on.

remember when it was sunny? ahhh, memories.  i think gus works at eyes on fremont.  one of the coolest places in seattle to buy glasses…

the headliner for the night was angels and airwaves. showbox sodo was packed (all ages). i had a fun time walking the line, and although i don’t like asking minors for pictures, what was really interesting, was the unisex tee-skinny jean-cool kicks-hoodie uniform. i almost wished for an opportunity to do a group photo.  there was mixing it up… but very cool (to me) to see how pervasive it was.  thanks to after dark for sending me, hope you enjoy all the photos, click to

i’m appreciative of good graphic design.  and although i didn’t get to see it myself, i heard the band had some urban vinyl.  cool.

the crowd gets rowdy as the band comes on (ok, they don’t look that rowdy in this picture)

atom willard of angels and airwaves- the band takes the stage.

tom delonge of angels and airwaves performing at showbox sodo in seattle.

i’m assuming this is matt wachter on bass with tom delonge on vocals in the back

i especially liked that the band all wore these jackets…

members of the band jet, outside the venue.  thanks for the photo!

i think he said the belt was from the finerie… very cool.

one of the fun side-effects of having a blog, is meeting cool, creative people. last weekend i strolled around with kate (we met when i took a picture of her in a very cool skirt she MADE) and ryan, who also love to snap pictures, and happen to be very stylish.

it’s hard to fall in love with celebrity style. someone else is dressing them anyway… maybe if i could see how those people dress? i’ve found it to be easier to fall in love with the style of women musicians, and recently had the opportunity to meet one. there’s something to be said for getting an up close look of what ‘on the road‘ means, and a guarantee you, it doesn’t involve a lot of closet space.   kristen of vedera spared an hour of her time in seattle to talk with me about her personal style. to see our interview- needleplusthread on the seattle post intelligencer.

i also got a chance to hear vedera perform and was impressed.  similar in feel to eisley (but not as… sad? gloomy?) i loved kristen’s voice live.  this free download of their new single satisfy from their newly released album just might hook you.
