Hello Dear Readers,
Last Night I saw the Young Widows and Russian Circles.  Good lord it was so good.  I wish you were there.  These shows look good to me.
Wednesday,  November 18th
Mississippi Studios is having a  having a Paul McCartney tribute with Nick Jaina, Matt Sheehy, Jim Brunberg, Amelia Buoy la Rue, and Corin Tucker (Sleater Kinney), Dirty Mittens etc...   Paul McCartney was in the freaking Beatles.  I know I lot of people hate on him.  Yes, he is not John Lennon.  But who is?  Plus these are some the best Portland's music. The show is $7 and starts at 8 PM.
Dunes is having a show with Palo Verde, Vibrato, and Stag Bitten.  Palo Verde is so rad.  They are heavy and loud and awesome.  I don't really know the others.  The show is $3 and starts at 9 PM.
Ella Street Social Club is having a show with Jesse Meade (Eugene), Leonard Mynx, Mike Midlo (of Pancake Breakfast), and Lindsay Clark.  This will be a great and folky show.  I have written about Leonard Mynx a million times  I think is a damn fine songwriter.  Mike from Pancake Breakfast is pretty cool.  And Lindsay Clark is really great.  I played a show with recently with her and it was great.  The show is $5 and starts at 9 PM.
Dekum Manor is having a show with Protect Me (LA), Total Bros, Cat Stalks Bird, and Orca Team.  The way I see this show is that there are a lot of punk kind of bands which are totally fun and then there is Orca Team.  I really like what I have heard of them.  They kind of have a surf rock indie-pop sound. The ALL AGES show is by donation and starts at 8 PM.
If you see me at any of these shows, please say "Hi". 
-Ben
