Death at the hands of a gang of teens. The gang problem is getting worse. Mr. Mayor, I know you read the blogs and thank you for responding to the speed problem in West Seattle. Now its time to turn more focus to the rash of killings and shootings. We need fast action not only in Seattle but in King County and you work well with Mr. Simms!

Great story on KOMO 1000 today by Ken Schramm about Tuba Man and Richard Peterson, the trumpet guy. Tuba Man came to Shramm at one point to help defuse a turf battle between the two. As Ken told the story Richard was playing close to Tuba man and playing the same song, which was pissing Tuba Man off. Ken said Tuba Man finally talked to Richard, and Peterson agreed to work other locations away from Tuba Man. Ken said Richard wasn’t trying to hone in on Tuba Man’s money, he just wanted to jam with him. Thanks for great story Ken!

Ken also mentioned there may be a fund raiser for Tuba Mans mememorial. I hope to throw a few bucks into the case!!
