Music Fest NW Saturday, September 11 @ Mississippi Studios. Mynabirds, Portland Cello Project and Crooked Fingers.
Janet Weiss played drums with the Portland Cello Project. Since she’s such a loud drummer, they had to put a plexiglass barrier around her to tone it down.

Music Fest NW Friday, September 10 @ the Crystal Ballroom.
“Music Fest NW, I love you. I love the talented bands, the rush of zipping around town to photograph the next show, and the free booze with dear friends and music nerds at the end of the night. I love you even when I don’t get to go to bed till 4:30am and have to get up at 5:15am for work in the morning. Pearl vodka and Jack DanieIs, I don’t love you so much but I’m okay with our late night encounters during this time.” Thats all I have to say.
This is what Willamette Week had to say.

My best friend from San Diego is having a baby. Her shower happened to be on the same weekend as Gay Pride so I felt like I should make another trip back home. I didn’t quite make it to any of the Pride festivities and ended up spending the morning walking around Hillcrest then the afternoon at the Tractor Room drinking Pimm’s Cup. It was still a pretty gay day.

I felt like getting out of Portland so I drove up to Seattle for gay pride weekend. Visited with an old Portland friend and saw two Portland bands. Glass Candy and Reporter @ the Wild Rose.

I’m starting to get really into Camera Obscuras and Pinhole photography. I just had a nice birthday weekend journey around the great basin region of Oregon to Summer Lake Hot Springs. We went on a wild sage grouse chase, soaked under the stars and turned our cabin into a giant camera obscura. The cabin had a beautiful view of the winter ridge which was projected upside down onto the walls. It was a long exposure but the image wasn’t too clear so thats why theres white paper on the walls. Once again, foil was used to block out the sunlight. Sometimes its worth sleeping in a big tin foil box in the middle of the high desert when you can have the outside projected inside.

Music Millennium turned 40 and the Dharma Bums reunited for a show in their honor. They were suppose to be the big breakthrough band of the Pacific Northwest but instead Nirvana, who used to open for them, exploded. The show was highly charged and meant something different to everyone who was in attendance. Music aside, I was excited by the involvement this show had with my circle of friends and the bliss demonstrated by frontman Jeremy Wilson. Fresh Young Fellows and Derby opened.

Every weekend at Lola’s Room inside the Crystal Ballroom or on the bouncy main floor, VJ Kittyrox hosts the 80’s Video Dance Attack. A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of photographing their Valentines Day event. It was an entertaining evening and felt like a prom for 30-40 year olds mixed with a younger queer dance night and maybe a wedding reception. Music videos are projected on three giant screens while the crowd dances along. Couples make out behind curtains and dark corners, and single men stand awkwardly in line for another beer while adjusting their wigs.
