Now in its second year, Bangor’s KahBang Festival is already expanding. They’ve announced the dates as August 6th through the 14th for the festival, which will now include films and art exhibits in addition to the music portion. With this change, even their name is growing: the event is now called KahBang: Music, Art, […] To think, I almost didn’t mention tonight’s installment of For Your Pleasure: SIN! Featuring dancing from Atomic Trash, Lord Byron, Ahna the Ladybeast, Greybush, and music by DJ Roy (from WMPG), DJ Marcus Caine, and DJ Wolfie Whistle. All tonight at Geno’s for $5. Watch their inspiring (creepy) promotional video below. […] Kino Proby‘s annual Portland concert happened at Port City Music Hall on Friday, January 8, 2010. Photos by Bryan Bruchman. Review at The Phoenix. [nggallery id=2] While at SXSW last year (wow, that’s coming up again fast, isn’t it?) I got my first taste of rapper P.O.S. (at the same venue where I saw the Ting Tings the year before, a similar case of not knowing what I was in for and being sort of blown away). I was already […] Now one year old, Port City Music Hall has announced plans to get some local original music happening on Tuesdays to help get us all through this winter. Every tuesday, from January 19 to April 6, 2010 (at 8pm), the venue will host two bands for just $2 at the door, with $2 draft beer […] In what has become a regular event (in terms of solstice and equinox), Planets Around The Sun organized a Winter Solstice celebration on November 20th at the Hogfarm Studios Annex in Biddeford, Maine with performances by Tin Ceilings and others, with food served in between acts. The Pine Haven and DoorYard folks helped set […] Due to some apparent miscommunication, it turned out that Annuals weren’t actually scheduled to open for Company Of Thieves at Port City Music Hall on Monday, December 14th. Any disappointment was quickly washed away by the headliner’s energetic performance, as they might as well have been performing to a crowd of thousands, despite a […] I’m not sure what it is about Tuesday, but it has suddenly become a hot night in Portland on a weekly basis. Sure, there’s the Clash Of The Titans at Empire, but not everybody wants to watch cover bands. Of course, there are usually plenty of fun shows happening on Tuesdays (always check the […] In a front page story with the headline “Record Prophets,” the Portland Daily Sun […] Collaborations between artists who don’t usually work together can be incredible sometimes – in the case of the [dog] and [pony] show dvd release party this weekend, part of the plan was to encourage such social and musical experiments onstage throughout the night. One of the best was clearly the Jacob Augustine + Lady Lamb […] I know everybody is talking about all the crafts and the music and such happening at the PICNIC Holiday Sale happening today (Irish Heritage Center, 34 Gray St at State, Portland), but the real draw is the Yeti that will be on hand for you to take a picture with. Seriously. Don’t miss it. […] The Bollard published their list of The 10 Best Local Rock Albums Of The Decade (complete with mp3s). Is your favorite Portland band/album listed there? I’ve heard a few different opinions on what they missed or what shouldn’t have made it on such a list but did, but altogether it seems to make a lot […] On Saturday night, South China (pictured above, after their set, in the first snow storm of the season) played their last show in New England for the winter. Today they headed south (to play at Pete’s Candy Store in Brooklyn with Greg Jamie, who they first shared the stage with in their until-today-hometown of […] Not only does this evening bring another First Friday Art Walk, but the day also signals the beginning of Portland kicking its holiday diy craft season into high gear. You have three big double-sized art/craft sales this weekend, with The Society For East End Arts Holiday sale (Fri 6pm-9pm, Sat 10am-6pm, East End community School), […] As I mentioned last week, a new record shop has opened in downtown Portland. Sounds Absurd is a welcome addition to the Arts District, and I stopped by on opening day (Black Friday) to check out the store and ask owner Shawn Lawrence some questions.
