2023/04/18 - Live at WAMU Theatre in Seattle

I have a cousin that manage to put an end to his life in the same way, but you got me to laugh. If I didn't have a pretty sick sense of humor, I would say that was pretty dark.

Breaks my heart to read this, Bosco.

So if anyone from the Chems merch/touring team is paying attention to the forum, please consider a limited print to honor the show in Seattle like you did with San Francisco/Portola. There's a couple iconic landmarks that could be photoshopped with a character, whether it's the majestic Mt. Rainier or The Space Needle, please consider it.

Considering it is the "Emerald City", I kind of hope a print is done with the Green Globule and the Space Needle.

I appreciate it Csar. It absolutely hurts when you're confronted by the reality of it.
And let's leave it at that. I'm not offended or anything.

Back to celebrating Chems in Seattle!  (and Tossed Salad and Scrambled Eggs)

More like tasteless.

Guilty as charged. I put a couple of topics into my free-association machine (brain), remove the filter, and that's the kind of stuff that comes out. I used to listen to The Smiths a lot as a teenager...

But then I cheered up and listened to this wholesome guy!

Sorry to hear that. I had an uncle who manged to (deliberately) use his own car to achieve the same result.

Perhaps I've had enough JD & Coke for the evening...

lol, I would not have half as many posts if it weren't for me drinking while posting or posting drunk.

Honestly, we are all just getting antsy for announcements. The feeling is in the air, it just wont materialize. Every "New Music Friday" passes with nothing from Chems, I find another grey hair on my head.

Just looking back at my last 10+ posts, I'm trying to fluff this forum for more conversation and it's not exactly high quality.

Got any hot recommendations? Places with a big CD selection preferred!

The one I wanted to recommend....closed in 2021, Everyday Music. Found Air's Moon Safari there for $15 back in 2017.
Considering going to Sonic Boom (https://www.sonicboomrecords.com/) and Spin Cycle (https://www.seattlespincycle.co/).

@Enjoyed, You mentioned Dick's in the "Live 2023" thread and since then I keep thinking of this Presidents track.

Now I kind of want fist size Ice Cream Cone at Dick's.

[Bosco]

I didn't realize The Presidents of The United States of America was based out of Seattle. I always thought they were just another college band out of Georgia because of "Peaches". That, and the lead singer reminded me of Michael Stipe.

Fun fact, I live corner to corner with the penultimate location of Everyday Music, which sadly closed down for good last year. I could never make my mind up about whether I liked EM or found it annoyingly difficult to shop at. Definitely managed to find some gems during the closing down sale though!

Sonic Boom looks super interesting. Spin Cycle seems more vinyl based? But may have to check those two out as well. Thanks!
