It could happen. There’s an art walk on Saturday, as well as kayak tours of the Duwamish, which is, um, cleaner than the last time you saw it.

And Saturday also brings the dawn of a new era for South Park’s County Line Tavern, the den of iniquity that occupies the corner of Dallas Avenue South and the 16th Avenue bridge. It has long served the Boeing blue collar set, which appreciated the cheap drinks, the greasy ambience and the happy hour that started at 6 (a.m.).

And of course, the whores and drug dealers took over the night shift.

But Saturday night it will have an actual rock show. Amateur Radio Operator, Johanna Kunin, and Red Jacket Mine will play. That lineup represents major strides for a tavern that had been a favorite among the most desperate cover bands.

Much of the credit goes to Joel Clement, who works in Fremont but lives down the road from the tavern. A year ago, he was trying like hell to close down County Line. Eventually, he just invited his friends to hang out there, and since no one got stabbed or shot, they came back the next week. (The increased police presence didn’t hurt either.) Eventually, much of the riffraff shuffled off. Clement has now become so friendly with management that he has started promoting the bar as a rock venue.

Lest their be any concern the tavern’s lost its grit, remember: It’s only been a month since the last shooting.
