Slog Happy! Thursday! At the Blue Moon!
And to celebrate Slog Happy, the Blue Moon will be offering $2.50 wells for all Slog commenters (even you mean ones)! Also, because this week kicks off the Blue Moon’s 75th Anniversary celebration, the bar’s got some great drink specials for their usual Happy Hour too (4:30-6:30 pm everyday)—75 cent schooners and $1.30 pints of Miller High Life.
And while the Blue Moon doesn’t have much in way of food, Jason Josephes (Blue Moon booker and Slog commenter extraordinaire) says everyone is more than welcome to bring food to the bar to enjoy with their drinks! Just a few establishments within a half mile or so include: Araya’s Vegetarian Place, Jack’s Mainly Chinese Tapas, Chaco Canyon Cafe, and Which Which. Yum!
See you Thursday!
(The Blue Moon is right at 45th and Seventh in the University District, it’s right on the 44 bus line.)
Sweet! Another Slog Happy that I can walk to!
Trader Joe’s is also nearby for those that just want something to grab and eat.
And PetCo is right across the street for those who want to bring an animal.
I wish I didn’t live down here in Portland. It would be nice to meet you all.
Question answered, Monique!
Will Mike Seely be there? http://www.seattleweekly.com/microsites/…
stinky hippie bar!
Cool. Though I take it there will be no board games yet?
@Jessica:Hahaha for reals.
Also, everyone please be careful to avoid the douche-trap bar next to the Blue Moon. They pour out into the streets with their popped collars and visors. Beware.
@5 – No, he’ll opt for the bar next door so he can hang with his peeps the meatheads. Backwards sunglasses, upside down, baby!!!
I don’t know, it’s too hard to go to a place so close to where I work …
(grin)
Has anyone gone into that place next door?
And I agree about Trader Joe’s. There’s also a couple of places that sell donuts on 45th and are open for coffee and donuts 24 hours … best ride from the hill is 49, or take 43 which gets you just about 3 blocks away I think.
And! Sloggers are welcome to stick around for the night’s show which begins at 9. Wah Wah Exit Wound headlines, preceeded by Emeralds, Noxlords, and opening band The Luna Moth (featuring commenter levislade). A five-dollar value, yours absolutely free.
I look forward to meeting you all on Thursday.
I’m not going unless they take away that stupid “Hammered Man” statue.
I will really try since I am a half-block up the alley.
@11 Oh yeah, I forgot to mention the show was free! I will be sure to include that info as I continue to nag people about Slog Happy for the rest of the week. Can’t wait for Thursday! I hope you pour a mean Shirley Temple… with three cherries. Never just two.
Don’t forget Memo’s Mexican and Village Sushi.
There is also a Chipotle in the area, which is my guilty-pleasure of foodstuffs. (I blame Denver.)
Its Lara’s birthday, so everyone buy her drinks. I can carry her home from there is need be.
See you at the Rendezvous!
Nice!! Finally, a SLog Happy on my own turf!!!
And Thursday night is gonna be esspecially rockin’, with WAH WAH et al making loud loud sounds for the SeeAddle night…….
W00t!!!
@17 Ha! Excellent. But wouldn’t it be more ergonomic to just strap drunk Lara to a dolly? Wouldn’t that also be like 10 times more hilarious too?
i am buying drinks for the folks from the ‘tales from the unemployment line’ posts. and maybe bringing some eats. kelli o, if you can’t make it, can i do a few amateur snaps for ‘drunk o’ the week’? pliss?
I’m psyched. I missed the last one because I was broke and laid off. NOT THIS TIME.
I’ve never been to a Slog happy before and I’m excited/nervous.
Pagliacci is just a hop skip and a jump away as well. Thursday? Should be Verde Primo and CB/Pineapple aka Hawaiin aka Swine and Pine.
Want us to run something else that day?
Let me know!

23: Sounds good to me! How do I get ahold of you? Tried your link but doesn’t seem to have a direct contact.
@23,
How about Chocolate Chip Pizza?
@23: Brooklyn Bridge!
Hm, maybe I’ll swing by Dick’s on my way over – who wants a Deluxe?
I cannot wait to rock the post-slog-happy! I plan to stop by after work and mingle as a slog dork before going home and coming back and rocking as a rock dork.
Thursday is going to rule.
@ 29 – Yes, yes it is. It shall rule all the days of this week, and the days of this week shall bow down in joyful submission to the Glory of the Day that is Thursday. And That Day shall dwell in the Golden Fields of the Calendar forever and ever, world without end.
Amen.
I’ll be there Thursday night. For the first time in many, many months.
And I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever, goddamn goddamn goddamn goddamn, HERE I AM!
@12 – we’ll put some cookies on top of the Hammered Man.
@17 – Happy B’day, Lara!
Since there’s ANOTHER birthday at this Slog Happy… I probably should make some kind of delicious baked good, right? It’s only fair!
@34: YES BAKED GOODS PLZ. Aislinn, Lara, and I will eat them in a ladylike fashion this time.
Pagliaccie is a great idea.
Wingzone delivers too!
I support all drink-buying and baked- good-providing efforts in honor of Slog Happy and/or my birthday! Whee!
I’ll just tally the votes here!
Brookly Bridge 1
All others none.
Vote!
@ 3 – Carpool sometime?
@38: Goat Cheese Primo, plz.
i’d stop by for a slice of AGOG.
