Oh, I'm not quite ready for that yet (even just listening).
I'm thinking of staying a little closer to the West Burnside bar strip and Powells, at least for 3 nights, rather than the White Eagle. I'll know how to budget when I do my taxes in a couple days. :o

Although, you know, Powells, yes. They should rent rooms above Powells.

(Some library around Portland has apartments above it - this would almost be better than living above Uwajimaya in Seattle.)

Anyway, I used to work at the Towne Lounge some as I'm friends with the owner and all the employees, etc. It is a nice, small place -- the sound can really fill the place up but I think most bands try to keep it a little quiet because of that. Als I was a DJ there regularly when the place first started and it's really blown up, which is nice to see. I live just down the street so I'll try to drop by your show on Friday, Shakey.

I don't know what our writer friend, Matt, thought of all this (I have a sneaking hunch it was all very circa-1995 Brooklyn to him AWRIGHT!). But I did finally figure it was time to go. It was during the "talent" portion of the pageant, when one of the naked dudes, cupping his man meat gently in his hands, inserted paint tubes in his butt and began to use his naked ass as a paintbrush.
Apparently they had a falling-out with the hosting bar (Porky's) in North Portland, and starting on the 29th it'll be held at the Acme (in Hawthorne, right?). I expect to be there on the 6th whether I go to the Lilys show before or not.

I found about this through the BUTT magazine spread (literally) on Portland in the current issue.

Those of us with 8am Latin classes are decidedly unhappy about this turn of events.

Probably about as well as those of us in AC-less apartments that get the sun all morning and afternoon.
Off to see an air-conditioned movie, at least!

I did get a SOLO tour of the Widmer brewery, and made it to Cathedral Park on my last morning (byootiful). Had lunch with the delightful mensch Casuistry -- one of those New York natives who has to emigrate to calmer burgs so there are vacancies in Gotham for bitter Noise boys from the sticks.

This week it is cloudy and in the 70s, which is not so bad at all!
No Portlander has ever called me a mensch.

NYC is predictably 86, muggy and full of people who don't look where they're going.

I'm in close-in NE, not far from Sandy and 20th. I actually really like this neighborhood a lot. It's a nice mix of industrial and residential and is a quick walk or bike from my favorite parts of town.
Uh, I'm in a two bedroom for under $700. I don't think you should have any problems with that budget.

Westmoreland Park looks great - cheers! Partner's v.familiar with the Stone House, apparently.

super cool! yeah, the stone house is pretty famous around here... i haven't been myself.
the city's changed a lot since the recently-passed daytime camping ban. still trying to wrap my head around it.
