Legendary rock band Nine Inch Nails will be playing at Key Arena this Saturday evening with opener, Crystal Castles. This performance is part of NIN's Lights in the Sky: over North America 2008 tour.

The Dalai Lama continues his Seeds of Compassion conference this morning by meeting with about 15,500 students and educators from local Washington schools at The Key Arena. He is focusing on encouraging children and youth to practice compassion. Mayor Nickels will also be presenting the Dalai Lama with a key of the city.
It's sure to be a zoo of schoolbuses and cars in the Belltown neighborhood this morning following the conference. Have no fear however, should you find yourself in the midst of frustrating traffic, take it as an opportunity to practice your compassion.
For a live video stream of the Dalai Lama speaking at The Key Arena today go here.
Traffic should prove to be a nightmare in the neighborhood over the next few days due to several big events occuring surrounding Belltown. The Dalai Lama will be giving workshops over the next five days at various locations including The Key Arena and Qwest Field. There is also The Seattle Green Festival happening at the convention center.
The Seattle Department of Transportation has issued a general traffic advisory approaching downtown Seattle on I-5 or Highway 99 today through Tuesday, said spokesman Rick Sheridan. The SDOT does not plan to limit traffic in any areas of the city.
My advice? Take the bus or walk if you're going to any of these events. Save yourself the road rage.
