what kind of stuff do you like? EMP is cool at least once.
- steadyvibe0
yeah the emp is wicked. ive been there.

I personally didn't like the EMP. The handhelds kept going on the fritz and the artifacts, while cool , were sort of brong. And I love music too. The building was the best part.

you could rent kayaks a few places around the city to cruise around the bay. cruise around pike place. go up the needle. pioneer square is packed with cool shops, pubs, art. broadway has lots of homeless, goth, drag queens, hippies in one area to people watch (decent shops). down-downtown has all your usual metro places.

is there any cool fasion or good shops with cool shit taht i wouldn knwo about unless i lived there? like good artsy skateshops with good fashions?

well, there are a couple young thrift style shops on broadway. zebra club and urban outfitters is on broadway and also downtown (not too unique). downtown there are some super high-end shops (cant afford that). if you are going for skate/urban style on budget i recomend just strolling down broadway, dont know their names but youll find at least 3. not a super big area either.

coool, so broadway is the place to be?

actually broadway is so-so, the best the area has to offer is off of broadway...start at 11th and pike, check out 35th st. skate shop, don't forget to go up stairs and check out Ltd. RUN RUN(great little shop within a shop) from there head west to broadway(2 blocks) scoot 1 block north to Pine st, stopping at Atlas on the way. Hit Pine st and head west toward downtown, lots of cool independent stores run by local folk, grab a burrito at Bimbo's, don't miss Lipstick Traces, super cool little store, or Wall of sound, which is a great record/book/zine shop.Area 51on the corner of Bellevue and pine for all your mid century modern goods. Head north on bellevue and veer right on Olive for som more thrift shops and Seatltle retro shoes, that street'll take you back up to Broadway, where you can check out the parade of interestin people.
