We started the all ages, early Tuesday evening, suggested donation concerts last week with Domino Harvey (formely known as Lapsed Axis), Same Basic Bear, and Miniboone.

Portland’s “Best New Act” (according to the Phoenix Best Music Poll), Dead Man’s Clothes, have just announced the detail on their release party for their upcoming cd, Ice Is War. The event will take the form of a masquerade ball (masks/costumes encouraged!) at SPACE Gallery on Saturday, August 14. Theodore Treehouse and […] Due to car troubles, DM Stith and Inlets won’t be making it to SPACE Gallery tonight, so plans have changed a bit.
