Myself and two of my friends (both GLBT members, Slash open carrying in a shoulder holster) were attending Pridefest at Seattle Center, along with the Parade.
Had no encounters with Seattle PD at all. They saw it, but they did nothing. Both myself and Slash were full participants in the Pride festivities so were weren't generally regarded as unfriendly to the participants.
Contrast this to last year:

I thought for certain I would have had SOME problem especially with the whole Nickels gun ban announcement possibly causing confusion with Seattle PD (since it technically hasn't happened yet insofar as rules).
