Orgone is a funky and eclectic group of people that rocked the night away with their soul-packed sound! Their intense and super funk rhythm section is the heart of their music. With amazing vocals from guitarist Sergio Rios and Niki J. Crawford, this band will have you shufflin’ your feet and then shakin’ your booty in less than three minutes. They started off with some great beats and vocals from Rios and then Crawford came on stage with her large voice and huge stage presence and graced the audience with some beautiful sounds! Let’s hope that this L.A. band decides to come through Seattle again soon!

Halloween party at the High Dive? Photos of it for New Year? Okay, it took a while but here are my snaps of Metalween 2011 at the High Dive. I was there for most of the evening and enjoyed a Danzig tribute called Danzig With Wolves, a Judas Priest tribute called Call the Priest, plus Thunderpouch and Darkfunkel. Darfunkel was Daniel G. Harmann with Spanish for 100, performing Simon & Garfunkel “in the key of metal.”

Photos: An Evening with Neil Gaiman & Amanda Palmer @ the Moore
English author Neil Gaiman and American musician Amanda Palmer, who wed in 2011, recently played the Moore on November 9th, 2011. The night featured music and spoken word, and photographer Nicky Andrews caught the action. While researching Gaiman I found that he authored an early book about Duran Duran. He is even more awesome than I thought. Palmer is currently touring Australia and New Zealand in her band, The Dresden Dolls.
