Olympia is rad because of k recs, sleater-Kinney has nothing on their best artists.

Tacoma is where bothersome Dave's shop is (bv on slap), he can show u around and seems rad from online
I;m sure i;m not the only dc/monster/subaru type guy here

blasphemy! the first 4 s-k records are the best thing to happen to music. i don't really listen to them post 'the hot rock'. tacoma always looked promising for skating but if i was that far on the bus no way was i not going to seattle. i remember a black ledge going into a steep hill, it was kinda tough to skate. don't think i really fucked w/ too many other spots but that waterfront place looks tit on youtube.

I live in a city next to Tacoma. Theres a fun ledge spot near the water called S ledges, that's always a good way to start the day. THere is an abidance of dumb but fun parks (think that was mentioned) Seattle is about 45 minutes away and has a lot of really good parks and pretty fun spots. I like it here but the weather is the shitty part. Hit me up when u move out here all I'll show you around
