Goodbye Funhouse @ The Funhouse | $8 | 7pm | 21+
On this night of Halloween we temporarily lay to rest a Seattle icon – The Funhouse. As a mainstay in all of our punk-rock hearts, The Funhouse has been tied to unforgettable memories (and hangovers we wish we could forget) for many of us Seattleites and tonight, it’s last, they’re throwing a party large enough to shake the Space Needle. From the roaring Misfits covers of Glenn or Glennda? to the maniacal stage show of The Downstrokes, they’re hosting seven bands tonight that all have members who’ve been on The Funhouse’s payroll. It’s a fittingly family affair and if you’ve ever raised a tall-boy or a shot of whiskey within these walls – that includes you.
Stop in, have a drink, shoot one last basketball and say goodbye (for now) to this legend.
You can read more about the Funhouse and tonight’s show in this great article here by Jessica Kaminski.
