let's try this one, hungover guy..

http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b368/mattohowe/NotGoner.jpg

please make shirts for this, like the one on the flyer.

I'd buy one

i heard that guy isnt actually poor

I heard that's not actually his cock

so... many... jokes... can't... pick... only... one....

i heard those aren't actually men's pants

nor is a man wearing them

uh'snap

cattiness abounds.

cattiness abounds.
From the sewing circle himself.

ahem....bump...

I, for one, am all a-twitter.

distortion-fueled

blistering

riff-rockers

garage-rock carnival mecca

frat-drenched pabst-rock!

frat-drenched pabst-rock!


ughh...

ughh...
Ha!

"distortion-fueled

blistering

riff-rockers"

I saw that write-up too. This coming from the same scribe that committed to print Flipper formed in 1994 (or something like that). Wotta genius!

I guess i should just be happy that it's a positive preview that doesn't use the words "Retro","Kitsch" or "Retro - Kitsch" even once. I won't miss the gawddamnawful writing of the local media one bit!

Is that riff-rock? Well turn it uuuuup maaaannn!!

WTF does riff-rock mean? Isn't all rock riff-rock by default? Fuck that, we're fest-fest-rock!....core-haus...mumble...(burp)

Aluding to Riff Randall?...arguably the Ramones number one fan...(once she gets that damned Angel Dust outta the way)....

Sorry..Alluding...i wasn't bowing to double "L" oppression...

opllession

Don't oplless the Fest-Fest!...Bump!

Only a few hours away...

And it's official: this is indeed my last Public Drunk appearance in Portland ! I fly south for the forever October 2nd.

I'm gettin' a little choked up typing that last sentence. Awwww,you guys,*sniff*...

My Goner-Away Party:shed a tear...or shed a beer!

Oi Blatto! when we play? Like what time-ish?

Off to pull the pork.

No jokes, please.

Therapists go on at 10:15..bet. Rep. Civ. and Pity Fucks...Dark Skies were moved to 8:15 due to some scheduling conflicts....so bands...in this order, are as follows..
The Evidence 6:00 - 6:30
The Whines 6:45 - 7:15
Hairspray Blues 7:30 - 8:00
Dark Skies 8:15 - 9:00
Reptilian Civilian 9:15 - 10:00
Therapists 10:00 - 11:00
The Pity Fucks 11:15 - 12:00
Pure Country Gold 12:15 ----->

We've got a backline...a 70's Twin, 72 Marshall half-stack, Drums of some sort (bring snare and cymbals), and I believe a mostly working Ampeg bass head and cab..

we're gonna stick to this schedule pretty tight, so everybody have your shit together...and nobody gets hurt..

sorry...that was Therapists at 10:15 to 11:00...

Hope I can get out of here in time to see Evidence. Make Seamus bring his magic recorder thing we you pick up his lazy ass up!

man i got to slow down my morning drinking or i aint gonna make it to 11:15.

i'll busy myself by trying to find my magic recorder thing.

As long as the Joe that is getting drunk isn't the Joe that is playing the keys you should be fine. In fact, if you just gave each Joe one drink that's at least nine beers but not one of yous will be too drunk. Or get one Joe plastered and sneak the rest out of the house when he's in the shitter.

Thank you, Matto. Thank you, bands. Great day all around.

Stop in to Slabtown and try the new pulled pork special.

Thanks Sam, Brinda, and most especially Lacey Jo for making that KILLER food and amazing cake...and thanks to all the bands, who were fucking great...and no thanks to that dead goldfish in Adam's stomach...

boof

Stop in to Slabtown and try the pulled gold fish.

Crazy awesome show and ridiculous food! Great to meet all that I had not, and see those that I have...P'land is my kinda joint...I'll be back very soon! Thanks!
