souvenir for h.f. davies

electrogals

it's a ladies' night






very pregnant lady on digeridoo (sp?)
husband picked up her gear and they left
immediately after her performance


heavy debate on whether this keyboardist was a man
verdict: (wo)man hence "electrogals"


the lawn chair, a very strong drink
they also make a mean grilled artichoke/gruyere/romesco sandwich


people do dance here


highlight of the night: cheetah finesse



holocene
1001 se morrison
hawthorne district

the kids come out

went to see what nights are like in portland.



saw holy sons





and scout niblett


towards the end she broke out into no scrubs (the TLC one)
and "we're all gonna die...." (that song that jens lekman covered,
also one that you wouldn't want to play if you're in a car i'm driving)

to be quite honest, the music was sleepy and so-so,
but the kids were into it--they seemed grateful.

ps. checked back and the song is called "Your Beat Kicks Back Like Death"
