Đ¢his was a great night in +Seattle Music History ! The fella's from Alice In Chains thought they would throw a one of a kind shin-dig for their friends, families, and fans when it was time to release their over due, long awaiting, almost never happened album Black Gives Way To Blue in 2009! It was the boys first album since Layne's passing on to Heaven and it automatically was under fire and scrutiny around the world not just in our little rainy city we all like to call home! so just to tell ya a little about the show! 1-VERY SMALL CROWD, 2-ACOUSTIC GIG SOMEWHAT UNPLUGGED= ESQUE IF U WILL, PAUL ALLENS EMP EXPERIENCE MUSIC PROJECT MUSEUM IN THE SHADOWS OF THE SPACE NEEDLE, & THE SEATTLE SEAHAWKS MARCHING BAN.

‘Star Trek’s’ Leonard Nimoy Once Met Jimi Hendrix; was it vice versa? U can decide!
‘Star Trek’s’ Leonard Nimoy Once Met Jimi Hendrix
This Just In From Seattle Music History! One night in the late 1960's in Cleveland, Ohio the star's of perhaps another universe many many light years away united and connected! A young Seattle man famous for his guitar skills who always had an infatuation with space travel and superheroes, & anything Sci*Fi related since his days of a young boy growing up in Seattle with his little brother Leon where he gave himself his own nick name of "Buster" after Super Hero "Buster Crabbe" is at a restaurant with friends after a sold out performance and he catches wind that Leonard Nemoy a.k.a. Mr. Spock from the Super Hit television series "Star Trek" was dining in one of the private rooms at the same joint! A giddy Jimi Hendrix who when off stage was very very shy and reserved proceeded to ask the waitress if she could somehow introduce him to Mr. Spock!
As the night progressed rumor has it that Leonard Nemoy was just as giddy as he learned of Hendrix's request to be introduced to him! There is a link at the top of this post that will take you to a more informative rundown of that chance evening of two Beyond Human Super Stars Blazing Their Fame From Other Unearthly worlds!
So the two bigger than life stars agreed to meet on Planet Hollywood if the near future as they both were Beverly Hills Residents & their 2nd meeting of the minds was o the set of "Star Trek" Nimoy had invited Mr. JImi to the set to hang out and watch some of the filming of the show and when Mr. Spok had some downtime and wasnt need during filming he asked Mr. Jimi if he would do him a favor! Mr. Jimi responded yes without even knowing what this favor was and it turned out it was for a guitar lesson! So Jimi when he didn't have his guitar in his hands had a pretty close number two passion that never really gets talked about much and it was picture taking! So armed with his camera this day he snaps this pic of Mr. Spok/Leonard Nemoy in a backstage actors green room as he is giving Nemoy a personal guitar lesson!!!
