As Seattle withers in a rare heat wave, we’ll be playing the cozy confines of the Comet Tavern…

Yes - it could likely be very warm still… that’s what cold beer is for though.   We encourage you to come down & celebrate the return of normal Seattle Summer this weekend.

We’ll be playing with  Sneaky Thieves, Gertrude’s Hearse, & Nathan Wade & the Dark Pioneers - The Comet, 922 E. Pike St.  We will be playing first slot ~ 9:00.

We’ve just finalized details on a psychedelic-rock-oriented bill for Thursday September 3rd. We’ll be playing with The Upsidedown, The Pink Snowflakes, and Amsetrjam. We’re looking forward to breaking in this new venue (new to Half Light - Ms Smith has played there previously) as well as playing with some really cool bands. Mark your calendars!

Our next show on the horizon is Thursday July 30th at the Comet Tavern with Nathan Wade & The Dark Pioneers.

Seattle Weekly posted a brief preview for the festival yesterday (somehow they chose to run with some band called “Mudhoney” for the photo rather than us…)

Also, ”Sunday’s lineup begins in the middle of the day with the hushed, shoe-gazing intoxication of Half Light (12:45PM)” from the Seattle PI.

Look forward to seeing anyone who can swing by to catch our set tomorrow. One note - the process for loading bands in & out to keep the music on schedule is a little on the tight side… the organizers basically need every band to load & go after their set & get their one allotted vehicle the F Outta Dodge: ASAP, so we may not be lingering to socialize all that long after the set as we load & move The Silver Bullet Van.

Wow.  Talk about amazing, kick ass sets by both Secret Highways & Levator.  These bands are flat out awesome. Also - great DJ-ing by DJ Jimi C.  What a freaking incredible evening - & a big thanks to all of the folks who turned out to share a night of music with us.  Best of luck to Levator on the tour.  We’re all gushy gushy happy over what a great time we had last night.  Next up for Half Light - some initial tracking for the new cd & then The Comet Tavern in March.

It’s on for the Mars Bar tonight.  We’re playing with our good friends Spanish For 100 (thanks for putting this one together Aaron!) & Louis of the Graze. Be there @ 9:00 to enjoy all 3 bands & kick your weekend off right.  We will of course be playing tunes from our very-soon-to-be-released new cd, as well as playing a Black Sabbath cover & 2 newer-than-the-new-cd tunes.
