Bumbershoot made its big comeback this weekend — and it was a Bumber HOOT (sorry). While performances from the likes of Sleater-Kinney and Band of Horses were the main draw, the side acts rocked, too, bringing back the fest’s roots as a showcase for Seattle Quirk.
We took a hop, skip, and a jump over to the Recess District where there was a groovy roller skating + jump rope mini-block party, followed by extreme pogo sticking.
Over in another corner, a live wrestling match featured a heel named “Macklemore” who threw his “Thrift Store” coat over the ref’s head to loud crowd boos. Amazing.
ICYMI, check out these Recess District performers based locally:
- Roll Around Seatown | Roller skating community with events at White Center’s Southgate rink
- Rain City Rope Works | West Seattle jump rope team
- Double Dutch Divas | Promoting health + wellness for local youth through the fun of double dutch
