Sometimes, nobody is going to tell you where the party is. You have to read about it on a light pole, which is where I saw that freaking LADY MISS KIER from DEEE-LITE is playing a DJ set tonight at See Sound Lounges 80s night, HIP2B®. Im sure the original Lawrys Seasoned Salt club kid, now a globe-trotting party monster and DJ, has visited Seattle since 1997 (when Ariel Stallings bemoaned Kiers jungle mixing in an old issue of Lotus magazine, R.I.P.), but for those whove missed her, or never seen her in the flesh, tonights appearance is a very welcome blast from the past. Psychedelic and 60s-inspired as Kiers aesthetic is, her randy and politically outspoken disco-house with Deee-Lite mates Dmitry and Towa Tei always invoked a brighter, dewier future. Johnny Fever opens.
