Liquid Lounge closing for remodel?
As our trivia host made the rounds last night, handing out empty answer sheets and pens from his little tupperware container, he informed us that we might be at the last Liquid Lounge trivia experience. It seems that the Liquid Lounge–and possibly more?–will be closing for remodeling.
The internet isn’t providing a whole lot of information to back this up, although I did notice that the EMP’s calendar has a lot of TBAs in place of weekend music announcements for the next few weeks. According to our host, the inimitable Fred, there will be a meeting on Monday to determine just when everything is going to be shutting down. He seemed to think that everything is going to jump into action either next week or the week after, so be on the lookout for that.

I can’t think of another building in Seattle I’d miss less than the EMP. The Liquid Lounge itself wasn’t so bad (high prices notwithstanding) but the rest of the place needs a lot more than a remodel, I’d say.
EMP trivia will officially end with a bang on Wednesday, March 15th at 7pm - so you’ve got three more trivia nights to go. On March 15th, prizes will be doubled - $60 for first, $40 for 2nd, and $20 for the JV Trivia prize. PLUS - a big “I won the last EMP trivia night” trophy to the winning team!
I concur, Zee–I’m not a huge fan of the EMP myself, although I appreciate the decent happy hour. I’m not sure how we ended up there for trivia, but we’ve been going fairly regularly for a few months and it’ll be sad to lose our trivia niche.
Hi, Fred. Our sometimes-named-Uncle-Fred team intends to check out the other trivia up on Roosevelt at some point.
Seattle Weekly has “Liquid Lounge closing party: Nigel Mustafa Memorial Quartet (CD release), White Trash at 8 p.m.” listed for Saturday, March 18th.
