Comet Lovejoy on December 23, 2014. Photo by Gerald Rhemann. Used with permission.This chart comes from skyandtelescope.com, which has a fine article on observing Comet Lovejoy.

     This chart comes from SkyandTelescope.com. Each tick indicates position as of 00:00 GMT (7 p.m. ET on the previous date). Don’t know which direction to look? No matter where you are, look for the three prominent Belt stars of the constellation Orion. You’ll notice them, if you look! Then star-hop from Orion to the comet. Look inside for a link to a larger, printer-friendly version of this chart.
      The wonderful New Year’s comet – Comet C/2014 Q2 Lovejoy – is about to be at its closest to Earth and therefore (probably) brightest in our sky. Many across the globe have already seen this comet as it has brightened in recent weeks. At its closest to Earth on January 7, 2015, it’ll be 43.6 million miles away (70.2 million km). Plus, the moon is now waning, rising an hour later each evening. You’ll have a window of dark-sky viewing – from the end of twilight until moonrise – from about January 6 or 7 on.

The Drunken Maidens in Benefit Concert Friday, Jan 09, 2015

The Drunken Maidens

will be participating in benefit concert for the 
Couth Buzzard bookstore/coffee shop.
Friday Jan. 9th, 7:30-9:30 pm.
8310 Greenwood Ave N, Seattle
$10 suggested donation 
 It'll be all acoustic, since they don't have a sound system (that's what the fund raising is for).  Should be a nice mix of music, and we'd love to have some familiar faces in the audience....

The Drunken Maidens
        "An eclectic mix of Traditional,
                              Folk and Untraditional Folk"

Lori Bellamy, Liz Savage, Helen Gilbert and Elaine Bradtke were brought together through their love of ancient British dance and folk music. Joining forces as The Drunken Maidens they walk on the tipsy side of life with tight harmonies, good Scotch and dark tea.

The Maidens have been working hard to build a repertoire of traditional folk songs and strong female harmonies with the intent to add original works and instrumental pieces over time. Their journey together has already been filled with adventure won't you join them for the ride?! Kate Powers of Dusty Strings says: "Loved The Drunken Maidens - talk about harmony!"
