starbucks

james and i found our theme song for the return stretch of the trip in seatle, the farthest point on the trip (other than the late night trip to vancouver). apparently the sidewalk in front of the original starbucks in seatle is prime sidewalk singing real estate. a four tops-ish group of guys were belting out when we arrived to see this particularly fragrant piece of american history. the next band was waiting a few stores down the street and we remained skeptical until they took up their guitars and started to jam out. 3 indie looking white guys, you can understand why we didnt think we were in for much, but we were wrong. among the few songs we stayed to hear was "wagon wheel". a song from a newish band, old crow medicine show. check it out if you havent heard of them. kk informed us that the band our guys were covering was in fact covering it from bob dylan, but bob never actually recorded it so kk just knows rediculous things. we listen to it every morning to remember our destination...or mine anyway.
