THE SATURDAY KNIGHTS HELP CELEBRATE OLDOMINION’S 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY

Thursday, January 29th, 2009

Oldominion, one of Seattle’s oldest most prolific hip-hop crews is celebrating their 10th anniversary this weekend, and who better to help throw a party than the best dressed hip-hop trio in Seattle?  Yup, The Saturday Knights (Barfly being a member of Oldominion and all) are putting on their birthday best to help Onry and crew ring out their first decade in style.  If you haven’t seen The Saturday Knights before, this is your chance to catch possibly the biggest party pumping sons of bitches rocking the mic these days.

Oldominion will be playing two, yes TWO anniversary shows, the first at the Vera Project in the afternoon on Saturday, the second (with TSK, Grayskul and Mr. Hill) later that evening at Neumo’s.  These are going to be great shows.  You do not want to miss.

YOU VOTED THE RIGHT WAY ONCE … NOW DO IT AGAIN!

Wednesday, November 5th, 2008

Oh sure, we might’ve brought a stunning candidate in to the most important office of the land, but now, seriously my friends, we have something even more important to invest our time in: making sure The Saturday Knights video for “45″ makes it in to rotation on MTVU (a college MTV channel, that we’re too old to know anything about).  So here’s what you have to do:

Head on over here and vote for The Saturday Knights “On The Dance Floor” (that’s “45″ but given a bland, scared title by the good folks over at MTV – thanks guys!).  Vote many many many times.  Vote so many times that our little friends The Saturday Knights scale to the top of the list and drunken college kids across the country can watch The Saturday Knights and say, “Oh shit, what have I been missing?”

You can’t vote forever, so get out there and get this done!

NANCY GUPPY, TSK … AGAIN!

Friday, September 26th, 2008

Alright, alright, we know, we posted this last week.  The Saturday Knights and donuts and Nancy Guppy when combined create a vortex of amazingness – that we know for sure.

But, our more tech-savvy Light In The Attic employees searched a magical site called Y-O-U … TUBE, and found this magical way to place the video right here, for you to watch.  Ah, the magic of teknoologee!

NANCY GUPPY, THE SATURDAY KNIGHTS, AND DONUTS … AWESOME.

Friday, September 19th, 2008

If you’ll remember briefly, you might recall that the crazed-trio that is The Saturday Knights hosted there 2nd Annual The Saturday Knights’ Donut Eating a while back.  If you were lucky enough to catch the hilarity that ensued, you may have noticed that the event was hosted by none other than Almost Live!-alum and all around great lady Nancy Guppy.  Well, Ms. Guppy was kind enough film the event for her weekly show on The Seattle Channel, The Art Zone, (somewhere in the, er 20s on the television dial) and last night at 8:00 ‘o’ clock premiered the footage.

To be honest, and slightly more reserved for a moment, this really was an amazing event, fun as shit, full of people looking to have a good time, and Ms. Guppy has done a wonderful job of showcasing the spirit of it all.  We thank you for your time Nancy!

We would embed the video for you but it seems near impossible.  Don’t be lazy sacks though, head over HERE and check it out.

JUST A FEW MORE BUMBERSHOOT SHOTS

Thursday, September 4th, 2008

Our good friend and reporter-on-the-scene Heather Wizell sent us over this final little batch of Bumbershoot shots of The Saturday Knights and some of them are just so great we couldn’t help but dip back in to the Bumbershoot flashbacks to post some.

Thank you Heather!

Enjoy!

BUMBERSHOOT PICTURE BONANZA!

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008

We’ll officially bumbered the shit out of ourselves this weekend and our now painfully attempting to put our boxed-wine shattered lives back together (thank you Bandit, The Most Wanted Wine in The West).  Thus, we’re taking it easy and culling together a selection of photos from The Blakes packed performance at The Exhibition Hall and The Saturday Knights energy-laced twilight bash on the Fisher Green Stage.

We hope you all had a chance to get on out there and see some great music, we certainly did.

Pictures, for you!

BIG LIGHT IN THE ATTIC BUMBERSHOOT BLOW-OUT WEEKEND!

Friday, August 29th, 2008

This guy will be at Bumbershoot :: Photo by Dan Mueller

Oh man, can you feel the excitement you lucky residents of Seattle?  Can you feel the magnetic waves of energy subtly drawing you towards the Seattle Center?  Can you feel the sweat, dirt, grit, hipster oil already settling on your skin?

You should, ’cause it’s BUMBERSHOOT TIME!

There are a ton, a ton of good bands playing this year (Howlin’ Rain, Beck, Man Man, Battles, etc.) but we of course wanted to draw your attention towards our own bands and their respective rocking-it times.  We know, oh how we know, there are plenty of enticing conflicts to draw you away from The Blakes and The Saturday Knights jaw-dropping sets, but c’mon be the best little supporters of your favorite record label ever and just skip out on the rest of it and attend.  Co-owner Matt Sullivan will personally imprint your cheek with a lipstick kiss if you do (ed. total, absolute lie).

Here’s those times:

SUNDAY AUGUST 31st

The Blakes on The Exhibition Hall Stage (across from Teatro Zinzanni) — 3:15

The Saturday Knights on The Fisher Green Stage (near the fountain) — 7:45

Oh goodness, our collective toes are tingling, just thinking about it.

BUMBERSHOOT LOVES LIGHT IN THE ATTIC!

Tuesday, August 26th, 2008

We were all set to remind you, our favorite readers, about the fact that our favorite hard-rocking, booze-soaked trio, The Blakes, will be performing in Seattle for the first time, well, in a while at Bumbershoot this weekend, and then just leave it at that.

But, we got some good news, hipster-hop queen Kid Sister was forced to drop out of the concert for unknown reasons and old Bumbershoot had to fill the spot … WITH THE SATURDAY KNIGHTS! Oh yeah!

Thus, now you have not one (The Blakes) but TWO (The Saturday Knights) reasons to get off of your Cheetos stained Futon and head on down to The Seattle Center this weekend.  It might be expensive, but so is your monthly Gold Membership on World of Warcraft.  Make some sacrifices, GET ON DOWN TO THE BUMBERSHOOT!

All the details about stages and times and such and such after the BREAK!
