Ok so maybe there aren’t (public) plans to reopen the State Theater and Pavement definitely haven’t added a Portland date to their 2010 reunion tour (so far just two NYC dates have been announced and gone on sale – though with them over a year away there’s plenty of time for more to be added), […] Liberation By Sound host DJ Roy recently visited the new studio in South Portland built by Ron Harrity (Peapod/PICNIC/Honey Clouds), and along with DJ Miles got some inside info on the construction of this professional studio in a residential neighborhood. Check it out: […] This weekend (specifically Saturday, September 12) is the PICNIC Music And Arts Festival in Lincoln Park here in Portland, Maine. The free event runs from 11am to 6pm and will feature an eclectic assortment of vendors and bands. [Note: I will be there with a table for Portland Pins and my photo work, as […] If you happened to walk past the front window/gallery of Port City Music Hall during First Friday (chances are you did, judging by the huge amounts of people out and about that night), then you probably noticed this interesting piece. Gregory Witt created “Cloud,” a sculptural installation comprised of large gear-like styrofoam shapes that move […] I just heard about this, so I apologize for the late notice. Tonight there is a Public Safety meeting at 5pm in the City Council Chambers where this important issue for Portland live music and nightlife will be discussed. If you enjoy the live music scene and entertainment establishments in this city, please go to […] The weekly roundups have gone out of style, but don’t think I’m going to leave you hanging when it comes to First Fridays. Tonight, the big party is definitely down at Corduroy, where local international man of geometric shapes Matt W. Moore (along with Kate Cleaves) has been prepping 5 large windows for your […] Our friends at the Pine Haven Collective beat us to it and got the scoop on Find, a cool new vintage store on at 16 Free Street here in Portland. Reports have already come in from a few folks who picked up great stuff there in the first few days since the opening. A few […] It’s been a long, fun month for HillyTown. Thanks to all the bands who played the OFFStage free concert series at SPACE Gallery, Otto for the pizza deals, the artists who designed posters, Allen West for doing sound for pizza and cranberry juice, everybody who volunteered at the events, and everybody who came out […] Last night I took the 20 minute drive from Portland to Biddeford for a couple of firsts. The occasion was Blood Warrior‘s first show in Maine (they’ll be playing second at tonight’s final installment of the HillyTown OFFStage at SPACE free concert series). I’d been enjoying the two tracks available on their myspace page […] The past three Wednesdays have been a lot of fun, as each week three bands have played free shows on the floor at SPACE Gallery. Thanks so much to all the bands who’ve participated in this experiment, and everybody who has been coming out each week to enjoy the shows! Tomorrow sees the finale […] Time to vote for the 2009 We Push Buttons awards. There are a lot of DJs in there that I’m not familiar with (and of course some tough choices among the ones I do know), but I’m sure that many of you out there have spent enough time on the dancefloors around town to know […] We had a great time at the first KahBang Music & Art Festival up in Bangor, Maine this weekend (Saturday, August 15, 2009). Check out the full photo gallery (it’s a big one, 90 photos strong) here. It was no surprise that Matt & Kim would be a highlight (if you haven’t seen them, […] As we get into the third installment of the our month-long Wednesday night free, all ages concert series, OFFStage @ SPACE, we reach a very special one. This show’s headliners are calling themselves Phantom Computers (and as you can see in Annie Godfrey Larmon‘s poster for the event, a Buffalo At Sea provides the […] So, who else is heading up to Bangor for KahBang! tomorrow? I’m anticipating a Portland field trip. Congrats to Christian for winning our Gay Blades-sponsored contest! I haven’t tried it yet, but if there’s pulled pork in Monument Square, I’m there. In band-personell-shifting-news, Dead Man’s Clothes is now down to a trio, including Ian Riley […] |
