*Updated 7/21* Upcoming Seattle Shows

You don't have much time, and neither do I. If you're like me you're still running around trying to get stuff done at this time of the day, but you need to stop what you're doing, eat dinner, and head over to The Sunset to see the Lucarne, Pitschouse, Blooper show tonight. Other shows of note include the second and last Seattle performance by LA's Kevin Greenspon at Gallery 1412, the Debacle Records MOTOR night at Pony, Case Studies at Heartland, and Groundslavia with Beat Connection at Barboza. Of Course the Capitol Hill Block Party and Timber! Festivals are gonna be going on, but don't forget about Cairo Pythian with Airport at Therapy Lounge, and Great Falls with Into the Open Earth and Thac0 at Black Lodge either. OK, I really wasn't screwing around; I'm already late to get my own dinner. See you out there!
