photo: hip hop and rain at the KEXP bbq

Saturday's weather included a downpour worthy of the midwest. With lightning, too.

It started during the set change between The Saturday Knights and Common Market at the KEXP summer BBQ and continued throughout Common Market's set.

This picture was called quintessential of summer music in Seattle: drinking beer in the rain, rocking out, and smiling broadly. And less than half with umbrellas.

Get drunk with John Richards

The next John-in-the-Morning-at-Night show will be Friday, March 7th at Neumos. It is also John Richard's birthday so there may be unicorns at some point in the evening.
Line up so far:
The Duke Spirit
The Voom Blooms
Tulsa
....and likely one or two more will be added to the bill.
PLUS: my favorite DJ Michele Myers will be spinning her show live from Neumos 9:00 pm - 1:00 am.

John writes, "On top of THAT the first people to get Presale tickets will get a special invite to my private birthday party that night in the VIP room where we'll have djs and a full on bar."

Presale on now, here. Public sale starts Thursday, February 7th at noon.

Previous JITMAN shows have featured Silversun Pickups, Vampire Weekend, The Black Angels, Jamie T and others that later broke out into bigger venues and festivals. You can always count on fresh sound and whenever you hit a JITMAN show.

Sharon Jones & the Dap Kings

So Amy Winehouse may have opened the pop door to the soul/R&B influence this year, but Sharon Jones is the real deal. I mean the REAL deal. Dap Kings are great accompanyment to Sharon Jones' voice and presence.
Out now: "100 Days, 100 Nights"
Check it.
