Hello Dear Readers,
No Time to talk.  Just time to list shows.  Here are the highlights.  I know there are many more (Wolves in the Throne Room, anyone?), but whatevs.
Wednesday, July 15th
East End is having a show with Graveyard (Sweden), Ancient Age and Danava.  If you like rock music.  I mean real rock music.  Then this is the show for you.  I sometimes like real rock music. I think Danava is one of Portland's best ROCK bands.  We don't have too many of them, so go support them.   The show is $10 and starts at 9 PM.
The Artistery is having a show with Casiotone for the Painfully Alone, Cryptacize and Neal Morgan.   I love me some Casiotone.  At first I didn't dig his new album that much, but it totally grew on me.  You should check it out.  The ALL AGES show is $6-8 and starts at 7:30 PM.
Mississippi Studios is having a show with Rock Plaza Central and Carcrashlander.  "Canada's best alt'not-country-orkestra" says somebody who is credited as being KUCI.   I am unsure of the description, but it is better than anything I could come up with.  I am mostly listing this show because of Carcrashlander.  They have a new album (I am not sure if it is out or not) that I have been listening.  It is a much more chill album than their last.  You know how Graves albums are kinda chill?  This is album is chill like that.  It also sounds really good (like I mean the production and all of that).  So go check it out.  And tell their new guitarist Dave Dyas to turn up (last time I saw them play he was too quiet).  The show is $10 and the doors open at 8 PM.
Someday Lounge is doing another Pabst sponsored Recession FREE Wednesday.  This time around they have Anderson (Amsterdam), Root Beer & French Fry and Bombs Into You.  I have a special place in my heart for electronic pop music.  I very big place actually.  If I had more patience I think I would try my hand at it.  As it is I can barley manage to play an acoustic guitar.  Tonight you can see electronic pop in many forms.  I have not heard Anderson before, but really like what i heard.  Root Beer and French Fry is a band I still have not seen despite my better judgement.  I heard last time they played their drummer Andy Parker was not there though.  I hope he is there tonight.  Bombs into You are kind of like when Bush (the band) went a little electronic.  The show is FREE and starts at 9 PM.
So say "Hi" to me if you see me at these shows.  It would be nice.

This is a funny video I found of someone singing along with a Carrashlander song.  This could be you tonight at Mississippi Studios.
