Lots of cool events at the Market

Pike Place Market just sent out its monthly e-newsletter and there's some good stuff coming up. Thursday nights the Market is open until 9pm, complete with Afro-Cuban jazz group Sonodo. On September 18 the Pike Place Market Busker's Festival will amaze and astound. (At least, that's the goal.) 41 groups will perform. We hope to see the Circus Contraption band, that cat guy, and the older man who plays the Japanese stringed instrument. Not so sure about the depressed clown fellow. J says clowns should have to be licensed. Not a bad plan, really. Also on September 18, you can go on the Spaces for Urban Living Downtown Home self-guided tour. People who are really proud of their condos open them up for strangers to wander through and admire/criticize. It costs $20. The only way to see a bunch of downtown homes without working for a cleaning service or making a ton of friends.
