Portland Bound

4/13 Show
I'm headed to Portland, OR for a long weekend in a couple of days, so it seemed a good time to highlight that city's blossoming indie scene. The first hour+ of the show I dedicated to Portland bands (starting with 2 classic garage tracks and ending with Glass Candy). After that I previewed many an upcoming concert, of which I'm hoping to attend The Thermals/Shaky Hands show in about 2 weeks.

I'll still be in Portland next Monday, so I won't be on the radio.

Mp3 links are up, but there's only 2 this week.
