VIDEO: 2025’s final Admiral Music in the Parks concert at Hamilton Viewpoint

6:41 PM: The third and final concert in the Admiral Neighborhood Association‘s AMP – Admiral Music in the Parks – series is happening right now at Hamilton Viewpoint Park at the north end of California Avenue SW. The Flaming Pies (above) are playing a tribute to The Beatles, and while there’s plenty of people in the park’s meadow, there’s still plenty of room to come down, bring your family, friends, neighbors, and if you can, nonperishable food for the food drive. The first two concerts went past 8:15 pm, so you have some time to get here.

8:35 PM: The Flaming Pies – led by a West Seattle resident, we learned – just wrapped up, inviting the crowd – 700! – to sing along on “A Little Help from My Friends.”

We have video and photos to add later. The ANA’s next big event is the Admiral Block Party on August 23; the next big outdoor-music event in West Seattle is Summer Concerts at The Mount, starting at 6 pm tomorrow with Danny Vernon‘s Illusion of Elvis.

ADDED 1 AM: As promised, adding video and photos. Above and below are three chunks of the concert, a mix of beloved Beatles sits and some of their lesser-known album cuts. Each of our clips has multiple songs – the band played prolifically, with few pauses.

As with the previous two concerts in the series, this one drew a mini-mob of little ones dancing and playing on the lawn between the performers and the audience, and you’ll see them in our video:

ANA president Joanie Jacobs thanked all the volunteers who made the series possible, especially organizers Meagan Loftin and Dan Jacobs:

Also volunteering, the cleanup stars of A Cleaner Alki:

The Beatles fans weren’t just the older members of the crowd, by the way – this young trio showed off Beatles pins purchased in the Strawberry Fields area of Central Park (near the Dakota building where John Lennon lived) while visiting New York City for a school trip in May:

The concerts were all free, costs covered by sponsors (we were among them, as were other community businesses including WSB sponsors Timeless Kitchen Design and PCC Markets) – if you want to chip in, you can donate to the ANA here.
