"Best piano bar I've been to in Seattle"
01/09/2008 by astroaphi
"I've been here twice and enjoyed both times...the piano players will at least play your song without making you put down a 20. It's much cleaner than several other bars I've been to, and you can generally find a seat. Saturday nights are pretty insane, but I thought it was a good crowd and everyone was friendly and in a good mood. The bartenders will make just about anything, and the piano players are pretty talented. They played some pretty random songs that I had never heard of, which is a testament to their talent."

Who I'd like to meet: Dino Duran, Piano Entertainer Extraordinnaire
Schizophrenia with two hands and ten brains on one piano.
Dino’s dueling experience, solo experience and improv stage experience mixes into a well-rounded performance. He has the ability to change on a dime and exploit the spontaneity of the moment. This is definitely a roller-coaster ride filled with excitement. Dino pays homage to his lifelong idols Sam Cooke and Steve Perry with a phrasing and range that has drawn the obvious comparisons his entire career.
As a dynamic showman who can effortlessly make "love" a six-syllable word, Dino is at home on the stage, drawing the audience into his world and making no excuses for his dead-on and hysterical interpretations of the classics.
From Phoenix, Arizona all the way to Tacoma!
Dino is a crack-up. He's had 'em dancing in the aisle, rolling on the floor, and singing at the top of their lungs in over 32 states. Who needs a stage? Dino's show has visited rodeo stages, state fairs, as well as private corporate stages. He has performed lounges to frat parties, weddings to anniversaries.
88 Keys is happy to have Dino team with the already mighty Kacey Evans on our stage!!

Hey Friends, it's me, Flowmotion & the Meltdown Festival.
Just wanted to remind everyone, the festival is coming up in about two weeks or so. Ticket prices will be higher at the gate so now is the time to buy them. 30+ bands on three stages, camping on 40 acres next to the river and epic views of glacier capped Whitehorse Mountain from the stage. It's about 75 minutes north of Seattle in Darrington WA. This is going to be one of the best years yet, so please tell all your friends and help spread the Meltdown word!
