Radio station KEXP 90.3 FM has finally revealed the plans for its big party in West Seattle May 29.
They will close down the street from Oregon to Alaska Streets SW from 10am to 6pm to reward West Seattle for winning the "Hood to Hood Challenge" last year. The fundraising event asked people to donate to the non-profit station "by neighborhood" and West Seattle came out on top. This is the second time West Seattle has won the challenge, previously winning in 2010.
Three bands, including Miami Horror will take the stage during the event starting shortly after 10am and from 3pm to 6pm DJ's Cheryl Waters and Kevin Cole will be doing live broadcasts from West Seattle.
From 6 to 9 pm DJ's will fan out to various bars around West Seattle (full list not yet released) to spin discs and entertain.
