Portland Music

I am so fortunate to be part of the music community in Portland. During a set last night, I figured I should attempt to learn how to play the guitar. It was that old "If you can't beat 'em, join 'em" feeling. I have seen so many amazing performances this summer. Here is a list of what I have seen so far since June (I might even forget a few):


Cut Copy
Sharpening Markers x3
The Long Blondes
The Kills x2
Jackstraw x2
Girl Talk
Jack Johnson
Rouge Wave x2

The Rock the Bells tour including:
Super Natural
Nas
Mos Def
Pharcyde
De La Soul
Tribe Called Quest

Scared of Chacka x2
The Racontuers (WOW!)

In the last days of summer I will see:
CSS
Tillie and the Wall
Dr. Dog
Cut Copy

Then I will need to hibernate for 4 months--good thing it will be raining.
