I have been to Seattle, and although it was several years ago, my favorite part of my visit was performing for the GALA Choruses Regional Festival at Benaroya Hall.

Great show, Gary, and keep it up!

Great show, Gary! I’ve been on a Riesling kick lately. Yum yum!

QOTD: Went to Seattle once. It rained, I was on a business trip. So my first impression was meh but I’m hoping to go back for some personal/fun time soon.

I am into Rieslings since my trip to Germany in November. HOGUE makes a great cheap one! Good show, liked the train! I’ll check for the local high school football field to see if they’d let us host you. Good show!

Loved the thunder (wind) noises, made me feel like I was in Tampa during summer storms. smile.

Horseradish covered clams, ugh? I must ponder…

Never been to Seattle.

If you make it to see Weimer than you should check out Dr. Frank as well. I know you weren’t that impressed with the Dry Riesling, but they make some fabulous wine there. Look out especially for the Rkatsiteli.

QOTD: No, but I have cousins who live there. Great show, GV. 🙂

Yes I have been to Seattle and loved it. There is a place downtown called “The Tasting Room”. Great place to go tasting lots of Washington State wines. Also enjoyed Pike’s Place market, the fish throwing guys and the Original Starbucks.

QOTD: I was in Seattle last summer – if your in town, have dinner at the “Wild Ginger” great Asian dishes served family style – good wine selection as well. I also went to Mt. Rainier – very, very cool…especially being from NJ and never really being around mountains.

Good show.

Have never been to Seattle and it has been a long time since I have been to the west coast.

Recently tried a very dry Australian Riesling last week and it took a while for it to mellow out a bit.

awesome show! I would love to see you at soldier field, go bears.

QOTD: I have never been to Washington, but I would love to visit either wine country or Seattle sometime soon.

Great show, GV. Looking forward to future offsite shows. Too bad the ’06 Eroica disappointed because some of the earlier vintages I’ve had have been quite good.

QOTD: My grandfather lived in Queen Anne so as my family traveled flew from Omaha to visit him every summer from circa 1980-1994. Some of the best memories of my life are in Seattle. Its also the site of my first tasting at a winery. We always would visit the beautiful grounds of Chateau Ste Michelle and have a nice picnic lunch and feed the coy fish.

Tell Mott to get a wind sock (a foam cover for a shot-gun microphone) if your gonna tape in any more stadiums.Secondly, it’s Casey Kasem (notice the EM) not EN.You’ve finally got this lurker to comment after about 325 shows,congrats.Rich C.

If I can get you onto the Sydney Football Stadium or the Melbourne Cricket Ground …will you come and visit us Downunder??

QOTD: Indeed, I have been to Seattle (many times in fact) and I would have to say that the Capitol Hill/ South Lake Union areas are my favs.

Great show! When you like Riesling you have to visit Germany. We have the best Rieslings of the world. Sorry Austria.
And then you must visit the BVB at the Westfalenstadion (now called Signal Iduna Park) in Dortmund. We have the largest free-standing grandstand in the whole of Europe with an capacity of 25000. Itâ??s absolutly awesome. But we play soccer instead of football. However we name it the same.

Very cool show!!

Q-Not yet.

QOTD: Seattle is beautiful in the summer, I’m out there pretty often since my grandparents live in Kirkland 🙂

Cool show. Detroit has a wine show/fundraiser on Ford Field in October– you could do a show there!

QOTD: Not had the chance to get to Seatle but hear it is FABULOUS.

Was in Seattle a few years ago and had the same view but from the mezzanine on a beautiful blue sky day!!!!! The enitre area is a treat to visit.

No, I havent, but who know’s what will happen soon..?

Awesome riesling show down………..really great. I’m glad the Weimer did well and I have one been waiting to get into.

QOTD: I was is Seattle in ’62 for the World’s Fair. That’s before the Seahawks and before I really got into wine.

I live in Seattle and after 3 years of living (and 15 of visiting off and on) I still am in love with this town. From Pike Street, to Alki, to the wineries in Woodinville and the hiking in the mountains or boating on Lake Washington, you can’t get better than Seattle!! 🙂 *unless it was sunny all the time!!

Great Riesling show. We’re fans.

QOTD: Carl’s never been to WA state. I lived there as a kid – Pasco, on the eastern side of the state. Been back to visit – mainly Seattle and Bellingham, for my 21st birthday. My sister lives in Everett so we might get out to visit – maybe this year if I get artwork in an international show that opens in August.

Great show, Gary!

QOTD. Went to Seattle on vacation with Mrs. Sassodoro a few years ago, and we found it to be a great food & wine town!

Yo Gee, Classic Episode !! Sounds like You was at a Train Depot with a
Tornado goin’ thru !! 🙂

QOTD: Loooove Washington State & it’s Parks: Olympic National Park,
Mt. Rainier National Park, and Mount St. Helens……Beautiful, Beautiful,
Beautiful !!!!!

dude, it’s Shel-drake Point, not Sheld-rake Point! That was the first vineyard I visited, and what a great place. Great people making great wine there, maybe that vintage wasn’t killer. IN the past, the dry reisling has been some of my favs from them. Great NW show!
