Escalator Fest

Are the kids ready to freak out? The inaugural edition of the two-night Escalator Fest could well be their electric Kool-Aid acid test. However, Saturday's 10-act lineup at the Vera Project is strong enough to make hallucinogens redundant. Folkadelic locals Midday Veil sanctify the astral plane, Eternal Tapestry's mantric psych-rock squirts Visine into your third eye, and headliner Wooden Shjips fuzz up their motorik-rock mojo till you feel like you're starring in Easy Rider. And more... especially more. (Vera Project, Seattle Center, 956-8372. 5 pm, $14/$15, all ages.)

Widgets and balloons... great big balloons full of biodegradable paint... that's the lift... high up over the fence at gasworks park on a clear day... where the other side is jumping into the lake with humans swimming like frozen fishes in polar bear suits.

That's my little saturday diversion climate clip dream.. it could be your also...

with a little permit from the Seattle Parks Deparment... kids in warm fuzzy gloves and street cyclists screaming on in with smiles on the race to place as many old egg tossers on remand-0-vision...

how about that for a winter ground swell?

the cyclotromites could squeeze down the puss glowing in residule drops...as suction cannisters filled the paint into bags and boxes of hemp containers and overcast skies clear the horizons of barbed wire while wise kormarants sea the gulls and pidgeons pleased as porraige.

only to lay waste on and into the rusty derricks of a buy gone era.

There is at least one great pop song on the subject: "I Love My Mom," by the Roches.
