Georgetown Music Fest
(A Lot of Local Bands in Just Two Days)
Now that Capitol Hill Block Party is huge, maybe you want summer fun that’s smaller, still neighborhoody—not about the big names but more about good bands, good folks, and beer. Go to Georgetown, friend, for this weekend’s Georgetown Music Fest featuring locals like Patient Patient, the Lonely Forest, the Young Sportsmen, For Year’s Blue, Idiot Pilot, and the Supersuckers. You’re welcome. (Georgetown Music Fest, 1200 S Vale St, www.georgetownmusicfest.com. Noon—6 pm, $12.50 per day adv/$15 DOS, $25 weekend pass, all ages.) MEGAN SELING
Moscow Cats Theatre
(Feline Acrobatics)
Most hotels won’t accommodate 35 cats, so everywhere this awesome traveling company goes, its animals stay in their own apartment. They wear bow ties and hats. They walk on tightropes, dance, and leap—little kitty gymnasts for a group of weirdo Russian clowns. There is also one dog, which is somehow depressing. (Seattle Repertory Theatre, 155 Mercer St, 443-2222. 1 and 5 pm, $49—$57.) ARI SPOOL

Are you guys serious? My boyfriends mom bought us tickets for Moscow Cats Theatre and we went tonight. It really sucked. In an embarrassing way. In that way where you're embarrassed for the people performing. My cats are better trained. And the only way there are 35 cats involved is if they rotate them into different shows because it takes them two days to starve them into compliance.

Not one bowtie, not one hat on a cat. No real dancing, mostly hopping around. There was even a bit where a cat stayed on a platform while a clown swung it all around. That's not training, that's centrifugal force.

I was sad that it was so terrible. But it was so, so, so terrible.
