Write an entry Entries about this placeAwesome by Derrick MeansPikes place market has been there in seattle for a very long time. Most of the shops that line the covered walk way are flea market type sellers but they are classy individuals. If you get a chance to come across a lady that makes her own bracelets out of belts they are worth buying. Her shop is called Cyclical Design and the bracelets run from $15-22. Make sure you hang out at the entrance where the fish are because they often toss them back and forth over 3 years agoUntitled by CarmI was just at Pike Place Market on Friday (January 30). A couple days before a coworker sent me a link to this story about the 40th anniversary of The Beatles’ last public live performance. That last concert was an impromptu rooftop performance in London to get footage for their film “Let It Be.” A local Beatles cover band, Creme Tangerine, planned a recreation of the rooftop concert for noon on the anniversary here in Seattle. The location? On the rooftop of the Copacabana Restaurant right here in Pike Place Market. Ken Mansfield, who was the U.S. manager of The Beatles’ Apple Records and who was in attendance at the original performance attended this one as well. Of course I had to go! Creme Tangerine did a great job recreating the concert, down to the same set list plus more. The concert lasted a little over an hour. It was cold out there, but people didn’t seem to mind. The music was amazing. I got some video which I haven’t yet had a chance to download. But I found this TV video from King5 online. I feel fortunate to work just a few blocks from Pike Place Market so I can attend events like this when they come up! over 4 years agoUntitled by tigers2008over a year i’d say with mom and sister then one time with dad and brother so when they lived in west seattle and brother lives in CA, now to. so nice to have family every where. then gives us reasons to take vacation leave from work to. love to go here shopp til i drop. and eat til i cant walk.but i recomend this place to every one.and go many times to. over 4 years agoShrunken heads by DonderjaegerCheck out the shrunken head, if you can find it. over 4 years agoSee all 104 entries |
