The Imaginary Zine is a 60-page old school printed zine recounting our first 10 years with some of our favorite blog posts and stories from our imaginary friends. It is extemely limited with only 333 handcrafted zines made.
It also includes a cd chock full of rare, live, or exclusive songs by some of our favorite local artists, including The Long Winters, BOAT, Tullycraft, Exohxo, Tennis Pro, Math & Physics Club and many more!
Tomorrow (Saturday, October 6th) is the Seattle Weekly's REVERB festival, a nine-stage, 50+ band, all local music festival taking place in beautiful downtown Ballard.
I'm pretty blown away by the lineup, the number of venues around Ballard, and the low ticket price (only $8 if you buy today, $10 day of show), and at least the Outdoor stage is free (are they really going to be charging peeps to walk into Sonic Boom Records at 4p on a Saturday?? I have my doubts, but will report back what I find out on Saturday).
Three Imaginary Girls will have a crew of writers and photographers roaming Ballard for shows, and right now we're trying to plan a bit of who should see what.
I know I can't miss Throw Me the Statue and The Kindness Kind at Bop Street; imaginary photographer Eduardo doesn't want to miss Central Services or No Fi Soul Rebellion at Sonic Boom Records; and photographer Kyle Johnson has J. Tillman, Siberian, and D. Black on his list of must-sees.
How about all of you? Who do YOU think are the must-see local bands at REVERB?

Actually, all the all ages venues - of which Sonic Boom is one - are free. If I'da known that I might have lobbied to play in one, but the Lock & Keel should be fun.
I'm really excited for tomorrow! Here's a link to the schedule and stuff: http://www.seattleweekly.com/swreverbfest/
Things I will try to see before and after my band's set: Sleepy Eyes of Death, Mike Dumovich, Hypatia Lake, J. Tillman, Jen Wood, The Maldives (really, you could just make a day of it at the Lock & Keel, hint-hint!).

The Animals at Night is really cool. I've heard them described as a laptop duo, but i saw them recently with a drummer and it was way more than that. Kind of like Boards of Canada with guitars and drums!

Yeah, Locke is the only one I want to see... but I look too young without a fake id... okay, back to vera then.

I wish I could go, but I have plans already that night! But if I COULD go, I'd be all about Ms.Led... they're amazing live as well as Memorex. The shows they put on kick some serious booty. :)
