• What'd you think of the Juggalo-family band Twizted at El Corazon last night? You didn't go? Well, Kelly O did. At least, she talked to some people who were were standing in line. Overheard: “What up, Fam? Whoop, whoooooop!”

People came from Alaska, Spokane, and Oregon just to be there.

• But before that, yesterday was the Seattle Faerie Festival at Volunteer Park, where we met the Seattle Garden Gnome who gave us a rock that, when cracked open, revealed a tiny plastic emerald. He told us, “If you plant the emerald in your garden, magical faeries will grow there." A skeptical Marcus Wilson from Pony mumbled, "I'm not sure that's how faerie procreation works."

• On Saturday, I went to Ballard for Señor Moose brunch and rekindled my love for plantains. Unsure of what else to do in Ballard during the day (that's not eating), I walked down to the boat parking lot (dock?) to judge the boat names harshly. On the way, I peeped inside the newly renovated Sunset Tavern—they just reopened and it looks crazy different! Excited to catch a show there.

• On Saturday night, Lo-Fi hosted Bali Girls, the Gods Themselves, and the Intelligence. The Black Lodge hosted Lisa Prank, Childbirth, Deep Creep, and S. Everyone did their best to run back and forth between the venues, conveniently located next door to each other. I wasn't early enough to catch the first band of either show, but the Gods Themselves (the new project of Astra Elaine from Atomic Bride) put on a solid record-release show with much waaah waah swagger and a smoke machine—their hit "Last Chance for Love" is super B-52s with epic Shocking Blue-esque vocals (Elaine was also in a Shocking Blue cover band). The Intelligence were as sweaty and excellent as ever; same goes for the bands next door, though S, Jenn Ghetto's project, also celebrating a record release, was a different, more heartbroken kind of sweaty. Yes, actual tears were cried by adoring audience members.

• In other music news: Congrats to Dave Segal and Kyle Fleck for surviving Decibel Festival 2014—check their coverage here and here!

• Speaking of Decibel, we never got a firm answer on how all these people were able to stay awake all night.

• Hot graf tip:

• By the way, I thought you might like to know I spent most of the workday on Friday eating Brach's S'mores Candy Corn, and they were pretty good. I enjoy things that taste like marshmallows, but I think the average tastebud might say "OMG too sweet." Lots of people in the office thought that. Either way, they're a step up from regular candy corn. [Editor's note: Emily is full of shit. They're fucking disgusting. Don't listen to a word she says.] If you can't hang with the actual candy, Jo-Ann's in Ballard has $1 candy-corn earrings!

• Okay, okay, fine, you want one more faerie pic?
