Your Civic Duty
Posted by Jonathan Zwickel
You really should get out from behind the computer and come down to Georgetown. Sure, Georgetown seems closer to Tacoma than Seattle and yeah, you don't know most of the bands playing at the festival, but these kinds of public celebrations are why you live in the city. It's your civic duty to support them, to take part, to drink beer in the sun and watch a teenage band from Anacortes sing their awkward hearts out. It's a micro-holiday in a funky, out-of-the-way neighborhood offering a bunch of good music to discover. It's Saturday. It's sunny! What's keeping you?
