Sadly, Seattle lost one of its great rock and roll bands this weekend, the Cops. Today's photo of the day comes from Brittney Bush Bollay. I'm a huge fan of jumping pictures. Was anyone at this show? Friday night I went to the Blue Moon and caught Connecticut Four, BOAT, and Peter Parker (and it […]
As we all unfortunately know, not all good things can last forever. And, alas, The Cops have decided to go on an indefinite hiatus and play what may be the final show. The original plan was for the band to have a big blowout "Rock and Roll Circus" at the Sunset at the end […]
Even though the snow didn't stopped the two previous nights of The Cops' Rock and Roll Circus at the Sunset, it did for the final night (and what could have been the final Cops show). From an e-mail the band just sent out (emphasis mine): Cops faithful, Tonight's show with Spiral Stairs, The Sea Navy […]
DAMMIT! The Cops should not be breaking up! That's stupid and ridiculous. They have been one of my favorite Pacific NW bands, and I will go down in history as saying so. Watching the late-but-eternal Dave Day from first-punk-band-ever The Monks watch The Cops and fall in LOVE with them as deeply as I am […]
Earlier in the week I reported that Ms. Led is playing their final show next month and now another one of my favorite local bands is going on hiatus. This didn't end well for Sleater-Kinney but who knows, right? Michael Jaworski of The Cops sent out this e-mail: After 4 1/2 years, 2 records, an […]
Show Date: July 5, 2008
Dudes, the Cops. The freakin' COPS. I love those guys something fierce. The rock put forth by the Fab five was extreme. It was intense. Beer was showered into the crowd. If you haven't had a chance to see the Cops, please take time right now to pencil them into yr Blackberry or Moleskine or […]
The Long Winters are the consummate imaginary band (and not just because the idea for Three Imaginary Girls was born at an early Long Winters show, either). Nothing thrills our imaginary hearts like hearing new Long Winters songs are on the way… That is, unless we hear there's a Long Winters show forthcoming where they […]
Though we neglect to mention it most weeks, Three Imaginary Girls posts a column over at the KEXP blog each Friday. This week's post, written by ChrisB, highlights upcoming recommended shows by the Cops (and mentions a visit to Choy Suey by the cops!), as well as next week's David Karsten Daniels/PWRFL Power show at […]
As I wrote on the KEXP blog last week, there are several ways to mark the 14th of February holiday tomorrow. Whether you're celebrating coupledom or on the prowl, there's nice, naughty, and all-ages type fun for everyone. For the nice: Head to the Dancing on the Valentine party at Nectar Lounge in Fremont. The […]
Sure we residents of Washington get stuck with a stupid caucus instead of a Super Tuesday vote…. but that's no reason not to rock out with the Cops, tonight, to celebrate this superlative of voting days! The deets, straight from the mouth of Cops… We Cops continue our campaign of sonorousness this Tuesday, Feb 5 […]
