Packing up the final remnants of our stuff, and spending our last night in the condo here in Belltown. I will miss watching the ferries cross Elliott Bay, peering at the Space Needle while we veg on the couch, and living within a block of some of our dearest friends. To all the midnight-yelling crackheads: peace out. This was a wonderful place to spend our first 2 years in Seattle, and I can’t wait for the adventures to come in our new house in Fremont. And the day drinking in the front yard with the white picket fence. And the Golden Retriever named Gravy (will be born next week!11!!eleven!1!). And my very own office. And Brian’s very own guitar room. And the enormous kitchen. And being 4 blocks from Revel. Let’s get this show on the road.

Let’s get this show on the road.

We headed over to the Croc last night to see Lemolo on Vince’s recommendation. Beautiful music. They remind me a bit of Eisley, but darker, dreamier, and without the backing of all the sisters and brothers and cousins. Great music for settling into the rainy season. Also, isn’t Sound on the Sound a fantastic blog? I adore the post that accompanies the Lemolo video, and the whole concept of shooting such raw footage of bands in their homes. Perfect.

Ben Gibbard & Zooey Deschanel cover the Seekers - “I’ll Never Find Another You”

3rd show in 5 days. Last night, we walked over to Belltown’s finest - the Crocodile - for a Ben Gibbard solo show benefiting his sister’s organization, TeenFeed. So incredible, and got even better when he invited his wife AND “his favorite singer” AND my ultimate girl crush, Zooey Deschanel, up for a couple duets. Big time swoon.
