Santino Rice is coming to Seattle. He writes…

hey editor. I’m excited about visiting your city this weekend…

what do you think? any ideas?

SANTINO

Santino is looking for advice about shit to do in Seattle. So far the only thing he’s been told is—sigh—visit Pike Place Market. Surely we can do better than that. So, Seattle fags and Project Runway fans, what should Santino see? And where should he be seen?

some people were screaming with fury (jokingly) at the bus stop about whether or not santino is fabulous. he should go there, since it is already a b-lister paradise (said with love!)

Hey, when Tori Spelling comes to town she TOTALLY parties at Bus Stop!

Is there a particular good karaoke option for Sat night? Not only would folks being able to hear Santino sing (my request: "Total Eclipse of the Heart"), but once he's got a microphone in his hand, he might be persuaded to do some Tim Gunn impersonations.

Twilight Exit? Bush Garden? The Crescent??

Karaoke at the Sunset Bowl in Ballard!!!!

uhhm...think we can we get daniel v. instead?

the LIBERTY on Capital Hill? I read that there is a lot of buzz about it's frontage...

Tell him to walk up and down Aurora at 145th.


I think he needs to get a veggie chili cheese dog at Shorty's. Did you guys see his audition tape (I think it's still on the PR site)? A perfect fit, as is the Sunset Bowl.

If he's feeling a bit more upscale, perhaps a bit of lounging at the Viceroy or a getting a Black Orchid at Septieme?

Fnarf wins.

NEW COLUMN!

The Clumsy Lovers are playing the Tractor on Saturday. I'm trying to picture Mr. Drama at the Tractor listening to Celtic-bluegrass-pop-punk.

:D

Frites, obviously. Where do all the most fabulous people go after drinking all night? Frites.

I am of the firm opinion that everyone should visit the epic wonder that is Boeing Surplus.

Santino who????

Send him to Scarecrow Video. I always take out-of-towners there.

Then take him to get a shake at either Burgermaster or Kidd Valley.

oh, come on people. we can do better than that...

FRIDAY NIGHT:

hot mess @ the war room

SATURDAY NIGHT:

le freak @ wild rose

by the way, that should've read

"come on, people"

not

"come on people"

although...

Is there a pamphlet for gloryhole ads on Summit Ave?

Is Club Z really closed? Or in the that case another Bath?

Santino is a natural for heavy duty sleaze.

Schmader, you sicken me. If I have to listen to another grinningly fratboy doing Total Eclipse of the Heart swear-for-swear imitating the Dan Band courtesy of Old School, I'm going to hold a pair of scissors down on a table, point up, and jam my forehead into them a few times.

Seattle fashion-oriented fun:

Thursday: Grind at Seattle's Sex-Positive Community Center, aka The Wet Spot (www.wetspot.org).

Friday: Sample the variences of Seattle fashion at the downtown REI (do a rock climbing workshop!), downtown Nordstrom's (the staidness that is us), and The Cuff (a touch of fun). Pick up souveniors at The Glass Eye and Phoenix Rising Galleries near the Market. Lunch at the Space Needle, dinner at Ray's Boathouse or Salty's on Alki.

Saturday: Wander through the UW Campus and Arboretum. Relax at Tubs, lunch on the Ave. Wander Broadway. Then Ballard. Recover from culture shock at the evening party at The Wet Spot :)

He could go to the Vogue on Sunday night for Fetish night with DJ Eternal Darkness. The clothing should be fun to look at. http://www.vogueseattle.com/
