The Mukilteo Chamber's long-awaited summer concert takes place Saturday August 4th at the Village Center in Harbour Pointe. The bands scheduled to play include: Tweety and the Tomcats, Soundview, Bad Habit, Janine Elf and The Stephen Grace Band. The concert starts at 2pm and goes until 8pm. There will be food tents and a beer garden for those 21 and over so the concert should be a great opportunity to meet and greet Mukilteo residents and enjoy a free day of good music. Mukilteo.
Further afield, Seafair weekend is this weekend. I-90 bridge closes today and tomorrow from 9am to noon, and of course the Blue Angels will be doing their thing through Sunday. As usual, this will give local "uptight Seattleites" plenty to complain about what with the noise and all. As for me, I will thrill to the sound of F-18 Hornets as they scream overhead any time I can. I am a Navy brat and an Air Force veteran after all--that's not noise, it's the sound of FREEDOM.
I jest. It's actually the sound of 40-year old technology. But seriously, I don't mind the noise--it makes the heart palpitate, which is a sensation I kind of enjoy.
If that doesn't make you feel better about the noise then just remember folks--the hydros and the Blue Angels are a couple of the last celebrations we have of Seattle's blue collar heritage. Think of it as a way to remember that Seattle is the town airplanes and lumber mills built.
And the Seafair airshow is usually pretty good, if you like airshows. I realize there are those who don't but in the interest of full disclosure I submit that I am married to a Boeing engineer so by default, I like airshows. Seattle.
