Times they are a changing - I just read in the Obits section of the Stranger:

• The Julie Cascioppo Experience has ended it's 16 year end run at the Pink Door due to "tight-budget times". That's unfortunate. (LEG, are you reading this?) I do hope she takes it elsewhere. Her version of "Fancy" is still unforgettable, and her Nordstrom Lady should be trademarked and used in an ad campaign it's so hilarious. She is doing something later this month at the Rendezvous.
  
• Also, another institution goes - Cornish art school is moving off of Capitol hill (out of those big victorian mansions and into some industrial park in Lenora Square. It will keep the Roy Street facility... but that still takes vibrant, confused pretentious art students off Capitol hill... Leaving us to the yuppies and trendoids...
