Bumbershoot 2009: Sunday Recap

September 22, 2009

Unlike Bumbershoot 2008, which was a gorgeous 70-degrees-and-sparsely-cloudy weekend, Bumbershoot 2009 was a much more Seattlesque weekend.  The Yeah Yeah Yeahs kicked off our Sunday afternoon, but between the ugly weather and a lackluster crowd, the show never really took off.  I have to admit that I’m only a fan of four or five of [...]

Bumbershoot 2009: Saturday Recap

September 10, 2009

The first day of Bumbershoot started early at 12:30 with an indoor set by Dyno Jamz. An up-and-coming funky hip-hop act from here in Seattle, they recently won the EMP Sound Off Competition, an under 21 battle of the bands now approaching its 8th year. Supported by the grandeur of the EMP Sky Church’s enormous lighting rig, the band ripped through a solid hour long set filled with some new material and a few spoken word moments as well.

Bumbershoot 2009 Preview

Unbeknownst to most of the festival-goers, Bumbershoot is an arts festival as opposed to a strictly music festival, and has a wide variety of options outside of the live [...]

Bumbershoot 2008: Monday in Review

September 14, 2008

Live Music Blog Represent
Monday was about the same as any final festival day (for me at least), slow to start and relaxed throughout as I finally begin to accept the fact that I cannot be at two stages at once. Monday morning’s early highlight was the School of Rock: Northwest All-Stars show. Those [...]

Bumbershoot 2008: Sunday in Review

September 13, 2008

After hoofing at least 10 miles throughout the day on Saturday we wisely decided to catch the bus most of the way Sunday afternoon. Sunday’s schedule featured the least well known acts of the weekend, and oddly enough I ended up catching portions of 16 acts that day (17 if you count the two [...]

The Needle
Bumbershoot 2008 kicked off this last Saturday of Labor Day weekend, and I was on hand to score some pictures and find some new live acts for all of you to put on your must-check-out lists. Considered by some to be a weak line-up this year, and others to be an amazing lineup, [...]
