On Saturday, March 13, musician and Seattle icon Chris “Slats” Harvey passed away after complications from a hip injury. He will be missed by many. Please come pay your respects this Thursday, March 18. 
St. Slats Day, Thurs March 18, begins at Linda’s Tavern at 5 pm. Linda’s will have $3 whiskey sours—Slat’s drink of choice—and free pool from 5 pm-close. The procession will move, bar-crawl style, to the Comet Tavern, Cha Cha Lounge, and then The Funhouse, where The Lustkillers, The Greatest Hits, Broken Nobles, and Creem City play at 9:30 pm. Bring your Slats stories and photos, and hoist a toast.
You can also read tons of great stories (and share your photos) on the Slats Facebook Page HERE.
It would be great if some musicians or singers could show up at Linda’s Thursday between 5 and 7ish to perform some spontaneous appropriate acoustic material for Slats. Anyone know someone who can pull off Danny Boy?
