Description: Younger generations and even most transplants probably don't know that there used to be a single stadium where Seattle's CenturyLink Field and T-Mobile Park now sit and they most definitely don't recall the time the entire city crowded around to watch it implode. But it used to be there and it was an epic sight to behold. Yeah, it was arguably ugly, drafty, noisy and probably a bunch of other things too, but the Kingdome was Seattle's stadium. Its name came from the two labels that were floating around during its conception: "King Street Stadium" and the "domed stadium." It opened it's gates in 1976 and was built to last 1,000 years, but barely made it 20 before it began rapidly falling into disrepair being blown up on March 26, 2000.
Description: Citizen Dick is a fictional grunge band featured in Singles, a ’92 romantic comedy set amidst Seattle’s explosive grunge music scene. The movie focused on six young people, most of whom lived in the same apartment building, and whose lives revolve around the city’s ever-expanding music scene. The inter-related stories about each character’s progress through the singles scene are intriguing and often funny, and the soundtrack is a grunge fan’s dream. Cliff Poncier was one of the main characters and frontman of Citizen Dick, and when asked by an interviewer what the band’s song ‘Touch Me, I’m Dick’ was about, Cliff offers the following rambling reply: “Well, I think ‘Touch Me, I’m Dick,’ in essence, speaks for itself, you know?"
Description: Without question, Re-bar was one of the Seattle's most historic nightclubs, hosting countless local and touring bands over its three decade run. Born into the grunge scene in 1990, the building it called home at the foot of Capitol Hill was built in 1930, and certainly playing into the venue's quirky charm. When it wasn't hosting live music, this anchor of the alternative arts scene presented work from local artists, theatre and comedy, and held rocking dance nights. Re-bar was routinely filled to the brim with hipsters, freaks, geeks, artists, gays, intellectuals, punks, rockers, ravers, and clubbers – a true showcase of the eclectic diversity of Seattle. The fact that they made some mean cocktails was just the icing on the cake.
Description: As one of the two bookend clubs on either side of the Denny Way freeway overpass (the Off Ramp being the other) that ruled the Seattle scene during the early 1990s, when the city was discovered by the world. RKCNDY was a huge, two-level, warehouse-type space that had amazing sound and was an all around great place to catch a band most any night of the week. The closure of RKCNDY in 1999 was a hard hit to the all-ages scene, especially with Seattle's Teen Dance Ordinance still firmly in place for another three years.
