MUSIC Wed April 15, Showbox (1426 First Ave)
Raekwon and Ghostface Killah both made some of the best early solo albums post-'Tang—Raekwon's Only Built 4 Cuban Linx (on which Ghostface extensively guest-starred) and Ghostface Killah's Ironman (on which Raekwon extensively guest-starred). Together, Rae's crime-heavy dramas and Ghost's vivid storytelling are a force to be reckoned (Raekwon'd?) with. The original weed-smoking music for weed-smoking people.
Nearby snack: French bakeries (try Le Panier at 1902 Pike Pl) are really just purveyors of elegant stoner food—giant slabs of Brie on baguette, various pastries with jam in them, and cookies in so many flavors.
MUSIC Thurs April 16, El CorazĂłn (109 Eastlake Ave E)
These Japanese outer-space punks (now based in New York) are NOT fucking around. They come in colors (Peelanders Yellow, Red, Green, Pink, and Black) and look like microwaved, raved-out Power Rangers playing Ramones songs with three times the energy. Peelander-Z live shows have been known to include wrestling antics and a giant squid prop; sing along to "So Many Mike" (it's about the large number of people named Mike the band has met in the United States).
Nearby snack: There's a Subway—HEAR ME OUT—at 1220 Howell Street. Their cookies, especially the chocolate with white-chocolate chip, are not half bad.
READING Sat April 18, Fantagraphics (1201 S Vale St)
Alt-comic hero Daniel Clowes will be AT Fantagraphics, reading from The Complete Eightball, a two-volume anthology of all 18 issues of his full-color, fully entertaining Eightball series (which includes the first Ghost World, Art School Confidential, and much, much more).
Nearby snack: Katsu Burger (6538 Fourth Ave S) has the most obnoxiously large deep-fried hamburgers in Georgetown and possibly Seattle.
EVENT Sat April 18, Pike Place Market Atrium Kitchen (85 Pike St)
Sweet Lo's ice cream IS fancy, yes, but it's fancy done correctly. Flavors like Lemon Bar (lemon ice cream with chunks of lemon bar) or Munchies (salted-pretzel ice cream with candied potato chips, pretzels, Ritz crackers, Whoppers, and Kit Kats) are literally what I'm talking about.
Nearby snack: If you need to add something savory to the dose of sweet you just had (the impossible-to-equalize stoner dilemma), hit up Copacabana's (1520 Pike Pl) rooftop for Pike Place people-watching and Bolivian food.
MUSIC Sun April 19, WaMu Theater (800 Occidental Ave S)
It's 4/19—GOT A DAY? (Ha-ha-ha.) I don't know what happened to the whole "Lion" thing, but Snoop D-O-double-G is heading back to Seattle again for a Wellness Retreat repeat, joined by E-40 (!!!), G-Eazy, and Ty Dolla $ign.
Nearby snack: Since you're probably not getting into the Snoop show without dropping at least $50, stop by the nearest Grocery Outlet (1702 Fourth Ave S) for cheap and weird snacks in discontinued flavors like "peanut butter cheesecake Pop Tart Oreo Popsicles."
4/20
WEED Mon April 20, Everywhere
HAPPY FOUR-TWENTY, EVERYONE! Keep it together, go support Seattle's fine pot stores, treat yourself to a fancy new vape pen or a bag of weed gummies, and have a fantastic day.
