We sent our intrepid photographer, Abigail Swanson, to Sasquatch music festival to take some photos and, above all, to meet the people. So, here is some of what she found: the people of Sasquatch. Enjoy!
Spekulation and The Town

I’ll tell ya something: I moved to Seattle as a direct result of knowing Matt Spek Watson. He and I went to middle school and high school together, and, during a difficult time in my life, he seemed like one of my only friends. In college, despite going to different schools, we hung out regularly, often spending entire weekends together. He taught me about making music, provided a safe place for me to create and talk for what seemed like the first time about real issues like death, love, poetry and fear.Â

A phone vibrates from across the room, the tone inaudible from its resting place beneath the trousers he’d dropped. As he rolls off her, she can feel the cheap motel mattress. A cold trickle of sweat carves a path down her leg before seeping into the sheets. Turning her face away, she buries it in the pillow, inhaling the scent of sweat and aftershave. The man turns, the phone in his hand still buzzing insistently, like the last mosquito of summer.

One Super Important Question For Amanda Manitach
Thursday, May 29, 2014 10:57 — 0 Comments
Amanda Manitach is one of our favorite visual artists in Seattle. She is also one of our favorite writers. So it’s a no-brainer we feature her work in our hallowed (?) pages – both in print and online. Amanda is also one of the busiest people we know – a writer for City Arts, a brilliant water-colorist, a socialite on the pathways of Capitol Hill and much, much more. So, to get a sense of what she does day-to-day, we thought we’d ask her one super important question!

The Midland Grand Hotel, adjoining St. Pancras Station and now known as St. Pancras Renaissance Hotel, was designed by George Gilbert Scott. Among the many of his highly regarded creations, he also designed the Albert Memorial in Kensington, leaving a lasting legacy on London and British landscape.
The answer isn't poetry, but rather language
