It's about time travel this week.  Not the kind that movies are about, the real kind. For example, FISHBONE played HELL'S KITCHEN a few weeks back. I was digging the whole scene, laughing, slamming back shots, talking to JEB, and the next thing I know I am home, waking up in the morning feeling slightly fuzzy.  See, a traversable wormhole peeling through the streets of Tacoma.  I shared this bizarre event with Hell's Kitchen BAR MANAGER CASEY. He confidently told me it happens to lots of people; they just don't admit it. I want to hear these tales of time travel. E-mail me. Let's chat.

THE SCUZZTONES are my newest most favorite band. TONY - THEIR CRAZY, HUGE RECORD COLLECTION, ER COLLECTOR, DRUMMER - nailed every song. Some chick threw her BRA ON STAGE AND SINGER KURT WORE IT for the rest of their set. They solidly had the crowd's attention through it all. It was loud, hot and good. Just like a nightclub should be. WEDNESDAYS AT JAZZBONES IS GRITTY NOW.   MS. BONNIE, pretty in pink, slipped off her barstool and landed with her legs in the air. Did I mention she was wearing a short skirt?  Poor thing. NICE PANTIES THOUGH. Victoria Secret?

Caribbean food is so yum yum. DANI YELL and I went to check out Weekly Volcano food critic JAKE DE PAUL'S recommendation STEFFIE'S CARIBBEAN RESTAURANT.  We ate so much food, three courses, including traditional Jamaican liquor soaked dark cake.  Weeeeeeeee!  I'm so totally going back.

GINGER'S LOOSE IN SEATTLE. LOOK OUT

GO MUSIC and I ate at BAMBUZA, Ninth and Pike - sensational Asian cuisine and good white wine. After time travel confessions, Go made me promise no shots while we were in Sea-town. Or maybe it was the story of my RUNNING OVER MY EX-BOYFRIEND WHEN I WAS 22. I think it was the "backing up and doing it again" part that really got him. Either way, I was banned from gulping copious amounts of liquid madness.  A crazy cab ride later and we were at the vodka bar BARCA sitting down with Go's friends Anderson (former drummer for Cookie) and writer wife Lovely Linda. LL just had a bundle of joy and was experiencing her first night out. That woman glowed as she talked. A couple blocks jaunt and the CHA CHA LOUNGE beckoned. Love the red lighting.

Super hot and voluptuous Dani Yell and I went to JATO CAFÉ AND ART ON THE AVE GALLERY'S GRAND OPENING. Tasty wine, lovely art, scrumptious hors d'oeuvres and comfortable atmosphere. My new red silk Asian inspired handbag matched Ms. Yell's heels. Giggling, we traded purses all night.

ROB OF ATOMIC OUTLAWS AND HIS GIRL JENNIFER joined us at FENDERS to see WEATHER.

Hearing EDDIE SPAGHETTI (Supersuckers) do ‘"HEY YA" at Jazzbones was the most bizarre thing I have encountered in like, forever.  Eddie's grainy whiskey voice took hold of that song. His little son Quatro on stage banging the piano while his sister ran around behind their dad was awesome. 

INDIE RAWKER BOY and TRUMPET PLAYER EXTRAORDINAIRE LANCE BULLER shared fab stories and tidbits while we ate. Then Go Music and I jetted to Hell's Kitchen to grab the end of PRETTY GIRLS MAKE GRAVES. Denied! Nothing to do but hit FENDERS KARAOKE MAGIC hosted by my girl BRIA MCBRIA. After four games of pool that I did not win, RAINBOW took on Go Music. Since the SWISS PUB NOW HAS BOOZE, I chatted up their DOOR GUY BRENDON, who used to bartend at O'MALLEY'S and work the door at MAGOO'S.  EBONY BLUE stopped in for that nightcap you don't really need but just want real bad.  CARLEE, former singer of HILBORNE and UMBER SLEEPING, suggested there was an upcoming project that'd have her swiftly back on stage. After listening to Go Music's wacko voicemail from some chick, we all decided the new catch phrase is "You know what time it is? It's stick it in time, baby" (don't ask, or wait ... maybe do). JAZZBONES' DOORMAN TONY had his first official stalker. Man, I love free entertainment.
