WE WERE IN THE HOUSE >>>

Taking in a show at one of Olympia's many "house" venues is more like attending a friend's kegger than seeing a concert at a formal venue. Prior to the performance, folks nosh on communal food and chat, and then eventually make their way to the living room or basement for intimate, one-of-a-kind performances by celebrated local talent to well-regarded imports.

Last night the Weekly Volcano joined the crowd at the Guest House in Olympia's Westside to watch variations of Globelamp, Camp Wisdom, The Fishermen Three and The Black Swans perform in the house's basement. Elizabeth Le Fey, AKA Globelamp, welcomed members of Camp Wisdom for several songs, including a song about Olympia's famous Witch House. Members of touring The Fishermen Three joined Ohio-based The Black Swans and its lead singer Jerry DeCicca for a round of from-the-heart songs. The two bands just released a split 7-inch record "Knives"/"Up Here" on Shelved Records.

DeCicca mention his last Olympia performance was at a "cookie" party, which drew numerous one-liners from the crowd.

Here are a few scenes from the show.
