Event Upcoming Concerts

[MARIS61]

Jesse Colin Young had us on our feet. His solo set to start the show was stunning.

So our drummer tossed in the towel. Too large of a family that takes an obvious priority, so we are on the hunt for a new drummer. In the mean time, there are some great concerts going on.

This Saturday I will be heading to The analog for the last show before they close down and go under new management. The main band playing is Love Lode.
If anyone was in town in the mid to late 90's, early 00's, then you know this band. They have opened up for everyone under the sun and are considered to be the most technically talented band to come out of Portland by most musicians in town.

If you dont know this band, but you know the band Smoochknob, the rhythm guitar player and backing vocalist for Smooch is the lead singer for Love Lode.

This is a must see show as they hardly ever play anymore.

SWIL was invited to play this show with them, but alas, no drummer.....

Anyhow, if you want some great music, this Saturday at the Analog will have it. Hit me up if you want more details.

Primus and Mastodon were in the next town over last night but I didn't realize until now.

Yeah my boss went. He said Mastodon was too droning and most of the crowd left by the time Primus started. Then they played like four of their old songs and then Les Claypool started reciting a childrens book to the crowd. It was an odd show.

To be fair, that sounds like Primus.

I guarantee the best drummer in the business is HomerLovesKoolAid. He's booked up pretty often though. He's damn good.

Love Lode has a nice sound and kind of reminds me of a less funky and more rock Dan Reed Network (at least the track I listened to)

Yep we have talked. Great guy. Saw him play in Salem once. He needs to get back on this board more!!!

Yeah the only thing they really have is old video from the nineties. I think they pulled most stuff from online since they started getting back together. I’ve hung out at their rehearsal. The talent in the band is incredible.

A friend of mine was big in the 80's with his band and went by the name of Billy Rancher and the Unreal Gods. Billy was best friends with my cousin as that's how I met him and the bass player, David Stricker, grew up a few houses down the street from me as we shared the same birthday and year. Unfortunately Bill succumbed to cancer at a young age and never able to quite fulfil his dreams.

I've heard of him and that group. They were well known.

Pffft. It was either Puddles or that. I think I chose wisely.

You know they arent really naked and they arent all ladies, right?

Trower when he had Jim Dewer on bass and vocals and Reg Isadote. Fuck! They could take over the world. Bridge Of Sighs in one of my desert island discs.

SWIL’s next show.

Bump. This weekend!

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

What day would you do for this concert? I'm thinking Saturday or Sunday. Probably Sunday is better IMO. Love to see Willie Nelson. Ziggy Marley is dope.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

I rode on Ziggy Marley's tour bus from Eugene to Portland.
