Beyond the Block

So I’m sorry I keep rubbing it in all of your faces how awesome the Capitol Hill Block Party is going to be tomorrow. I’m sure a lot of you:

a) ARE GOING tomorrow, Saturday, Sunday or all weekend.

b) cannot come because you didn’t get tickets. [well you still can if you hurry, but you’re out of luck for Friday]

c) cannot come because you are nowhere near Seattle.

Don’t worry. I will dance to MGMT, Yeasayer, and Holy Fuck for all of you. I will grab all of the free goods that the vendors hand out to me. I will try and spot out celebrities. I know that the guys of MTV’s The Buried Life will be in attendance and I’m secretly hoping that I’ll be watching a band with Jason Biggs standing right next to me. [because they’re filming Grassroots here through August!]

I’ll take pictures of the hipster street style that is the epitome of the Capitol Hill neighborhood. I’ll have to use it for visual evidence to show my relatives what the definition of a hipster is for a future date.

If you are in Seattle, and you are unable to participate in tomorrow’s festivities due to lack of ticket or don’t want to attend [can’t understand why you wouldn’t!] there will be other things going on Capitol Hill during this time. The owner of Po Dog is throwing down a free mini music festival tomorrow as well. Something to check out yeah? Capitol Hill Seattle has also compiled a list together of all the other things you can do still in Capitol Hill, but outside of the gates HERE

You won’t be getting LIVE updates from me, but it’s cool. You’ll get them when you get them.

Let the block party begin…

I Love New York Deli coming to Capitol Hill!

Capitol Hill is on the verge of a major breakthrough. First Po Dog, Seattle University’s numerous remodelings, renovations of old buildings, Elliott Bay Book Company’s moving, and now we can add I Love New York Deli to the list.

The new I Love New York Deli location will be right off Broadway between Pike and Pine (of course.) Everyone get ready for amazing sandwiches and … get ready for this… they might be open 24 hours! Seattle University students, you now have one more late night eatery option to add to your list of “places to eat after a night out on the hill.” All this time, you’ve had the street meat, Pita Pit, Dicks, etc, but now you can sink your teeth into a nice delicous sandwich. Competition beware.
