Seattle, WA: This past Friday night Boise's alt-rock legends Built To Spill packed the Pyramid Ale House in Seattle. The big shindig, dubbed "Get Snowed In," produced a snow-dance of monumental proportions, and subsequently helping produce the massive amounts of snowfall recorded over the weekend. The result: Crystal Mountain and Mt. Baker both announced early openings (Wed for Crystal, Thurs for Baker) Thanks to Pyramid's Snow Cap ale, most of the sold-out crowd was whipped into a frenzy by the time Doug Martsch and Co. took the stage. This show brought shred and music fans together in support of good beer, great music, and a fantastic storm system. Co-sposnors included The Surfrider Foundation, The K2 Snowboarding, POW Gloves, The Summit at Snoqualmie, Crystal Mountain, Snowboard Connection, One Mountain Clothing, Casual Industries, and 107.7 the End. Prizes were tossed to the masses, kegs were killed, and shakas were tossed about. Snowboarding celebs like Eric Leines, Nathan Yant, and Monty Hayes were spotted giving it up to the snow gods. Whatever they're putting in that beer, it produced seriously funny feelings of winter euphoria. Another round please.
