Portand May 28, Berbati's Pan

A Facebook ad pointed me in the direction of this event:

Looks like maybe a Sasquatch warm-up gig? I'll be there!

[lshibley]

I got my tickets! Anyone else going to be there?

[orochics]

My wife and I wont be able to make it up to Portland from Socal. When all the tour dates are posted, I think I have her brainwashed for a road trip for shows on the west coast. I am rather jealous for the new tunes you will hear.


Edit: update to follow...

Being on both the wrong coastline and wrong side of the border makes sour29 a sad panda.

[kategottli]

I'm with you sour29.
We don't get to benefit from all the NYC love, either.

If only Nada Surf had played a Proximity Effect night, I would have found a way to both get to and afford to stay in New York for the album shows. If I had known that JR was opening the Weight Is A Gift show, that might have done it, too. Oh well. As it was, the Toronto Nada Surf show was grand, and although it was John-free, Dawn Landes was spectacular.

Another show:
Eugene, OR on May 27th at WOW Hall
Oregonians = lucky bastards :)

...and as you can read on the LW site, there may even be more warming-up shows coming up.

By the way, a venue called WOW hall, now that's cool.

[sour29]

I was wondering if they had finally found a drummer if they're booking full band shows, but then I saw John's open cattle call on Twitter/Facebook. Guess not.

[orochics]

In a lovely turn of events, my wife and I decided to head up to Portland for that week and see both shows! So if there is another show that wants to pop up during that time I wont complain. :D

See you there!

[Liesbeth]

Boat, pardon me, BOAT, and Sea Bell will be playing support at the WOW hall.

[John]

Another show you shouldn't miss is The Newton Girls at the Crocodile on Wed the 26th.

Also, from Twitter:

If you're in Seattle, and enjoy rock music, the week leading up to Sasquatch would be a good time to practice decoding anagrams.

mmhmm.

[sour29]

I've heard of them, but they're not really my cup of tea. I thought they'd disbanded, though -- I haven't heard of them doing any shows or albums in a really long time.

[Liesbeth]

Don't know if there's any truth in the rumour that The Long Winters have recruited their drummer to play with them in Oregon and Sasquatch, which would explain why John is plugging their Croc show.

[orochics]

I was just going to post saying that the croc doesn't have anything on the calendar for the 26th, but I refresh, and what do we have here.

Interesting Picture:

Looks somewhat like WIPTF album cover

[sour29]

Curiouser and curiouser.

[grant]

It's a power duo supergroup made of Olivia Newton-John and Juice Newton. Both of whom are noted spaghetti enthusiasts.

[Liesbeth]

well, if Three Imaginary Girls talk about it, you probably have made a good choice, whatever it is you are gonna get to see
