The show was beautiful in the awkward, surprising, and sometimes unnerving way The Round can be. Damien Jurado was AMAZING. His music filled the room with cathedral awe; it was distilled, bare, and haunting, like a short story by Raymond Carver.
If you've never been to The Round, go! It's one of my favorite on-going events in Seattle. The people and the space are warm and beautiful. It reminds me why living in this small-town city is so damn cool.

Loved it!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds amazing! I have been wanting to go to the round for a while. Did you like Pretty Broken Things? Scott plays for them sometimes.
ReplyDeleteYes! Pretty Broken Things was beautiful. :-)
