Q-Seattle Events: Tacky Tourist Clubs

Seattle's LGBT community band, Rainbow City Band, is going to the movies on Thursday. "So what?" you might respond. "The Seattle Lesbian & Gay Film Festival is in full swing, so a lot of folks are going to the movies."

True, but this is something else entirely. The Band's fall concert on Thursday, October 18th at 7:30 pm is a tribute to the music that sets the mood of any film, good or bad. They've picked the best of the good. The one-night concert, called A Night at the Movies, is at Broadway Performance Hall [get directions]. Tickets are $16.36 for general admission or $11.24 for seniors, students, or children.

There's precious little information on the band's website about the concert, but band-member jarrow272 comes to the rescue with this informative post on LiveJournal:

Allow me to casually mention our program list *ahem*

• Star Wars
• Harry Potter
• Lord of the Rings
• Pirates of the Caribbean
• Schindler's List
• The Simpsons
• Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
• and a medley of Danny Elfman pieces that's basically a snapshot of Tim Burton's career including:
  • Beetlejuice
  • Edward Scissorhands
  • The Nightmare Before Christmas
  • and the non-Burton Spiderman and Tales From the Crypt

He assures us that the concert will be "awesome" and a "fandom concert". So... pull yourselves away from the festival schedule for an evening to enjoy movie music without the movie.
