It's the year's best party, this time with soaring original orchestrations of this year's music finalists—TheeSatisfaction, Master Musicians, of Bukkake, and Lori Goldston—by Seattle Rock Orchestra! (Who else is nominated to get $5,000 with no strings attached and the crown of GENIUS? Lookee here!) AAANNNNDDD, awesome dance by Velocity's Kate Wallich!

Plus! Awards presented by local genius superstars Lynn Shelton, Jeffry Micthell, Susanna Welbourne, Sarah Rudinoff, and Jim Woodring! Only one sworn-to-secrecy ballot-counter here at The Stranger will know the winners until they are announced live on stage! THE TENTERHOOKS!!!

And-and, drinks and carrying-on and, possibly, sequins, all at the nearly impossibly elegant Moore Theatre!

GET A TICKET plus one for someone you love/lust after!

Speaking of sequins, and sorry for LiveJournaling, I happened to mention that I possess a gold-sequinned dress, and now both Jen Graves and Cienna Madrid are EXTREMELY INSISTENT that it be worn on this Very Special Night. But maybe it's a little much? (Sorry, no photo, dress is at home—it's a sleeveless number, above the knee, and it is entirely paved in gold sequins.) Hey, YOU decide! This Slog poll, like all Slog polls, is legally binding. Thanks for your help! See you Saturday night (and if I have to wear gold sequins, you must wear something comparable too).
