My landlords wife is renting rooms at 57th and NE Sandy, if anybodys looking for a place

Okay srsly and for real:

Saturday night. Drinkin'. All are welcome. I'd love to do it at my local (the B-Side) because it's v. friendly to me and has a covered/heated smoking patio, but alternative venue/date suggestions can be made.

oh man that's my birthday, otherwise i'd be there with bells on.

alternative venue/date suggestions can be made.

Important information for u 2 consider.

:) :)

It's a trap!

What about earlier in the day? On Saturday night, they're doing a singalong versin of Hedwig & the Angry Inch at Cinema 21, and I'm probably heading there.

The HP Lovecraft Film Fest is also this weekend. I'd volunteer again, but I've done that for the last 4 years, so I'll take a break this time.

Sing-Along Hedwig and The Angry Inch
October 3 at 10:00 p.m.

It’s back! Hedwig and the Angry Inch, the fiercely inventive rock and roll movie musical returns to the big screen and this time you can sing-along! An emcee will get you warmed up and provide you with props to use as the movie plays. There’ll even be a costume contest with special prizes!

Will be there, no doubt.

we should do a pre-show boozey fap

Indeed. Working that day till 7:30, tell me where to be at 8 and I'm there. Wouldn't mind if you made it earlier with me as a late arrival, either.

what are you booing at tz?

you living in portland and not seattle!

oh yeah, what an awful person I am

I was saying boo-urns.

I signed my lease!

My housemates play Ultimate. They have invited me to accompany them.

Haaaaaa. Welcome to Portland.

what can ya do

Congratulations! Check out Montavilla neighborhood (which I presume is near you). There's a nice new cocktail bar on 79th and SE Stark that has organic/sustainable snacks, fancy pre-prohibition drink recipes, and also $2 PBRs for those inclined. It's across the street from the Academy, a $3 beer theater with 5 screens.

Oh yeah, the bar is called Vintage.

Apparently that is the next hood south of mines, which is Madison South according to this google map?

You're around 82nd and what? I-84?

Portland sounds great.

Okay, who's up for pre-Hedwig fap tonight? I'm thinking Blue Moon on NW 21st. I don't know any place closer which also ain't douchier.

xxp Yeah, 82nd & Thompson, a few blocks northwards.

I'd be down for the Blue Moon. Not a bad place at all.

Okay, let's do it then. 8pm, Blue Moon. NW 21st and Everett or whatever it is. Find the dude wot looks like an ilxor.

N-I-C-K, you still down for this?

My housemate is hanging art and playing music at a house on 37th & Alberta tonight. 7pm. They're called Wizard Rifle. Loud and fun.

That sounds cool. Maybe cooler than the Blue Moon.

Pretty sure Blue Moon is 21/Glisan btw

Well if you come down, I look like this: myspace.com/nanotear

Say hi!

Nevermind: that party/art show is aimed at kids and run by censors.

Okay, won't make it by 8, but I'll be heading down to Blue Moon for a bit before the movie tonight.

happy birthday, clay!
btw

Oy, so, something I ate around 6 caused spectacular stomach pain and disorientation, so I'm out of commission tonight.

At Blue Moon now with friend, heading to theater in 30.

bummerz nite: went to both Alberta/37th and Blue Moon and did not encounter anyone I recognized

I did find a shelf and a pair of girl jeans for free and saw an awesome west african drumming/dancing troupe tho, so the day was not all a wash.

thanks so much tza!

<3

Theater is filled, and they're having a hairdo-judging contest.

Sorry I bailed Rev. I tried to shout a warning on here first.

I Dj heavy metal vinyl at Ground Kontrol (a retro-video game/pinball arcade that serves beer & wine) from 8-midnight Sunday 10/4.

Come down. It's free. I will totally buy you a drink or two. :)

And there's no cover this week, if anyone was wondering.

oh hey nate, i play there every second saturday!

small town :)

I have already randomly ran into random people I met in random locations.

Welcome to Portland, Reverend!

I second all of Nate's recommendations (I'm in South Tabor). Also check out The Country Cat (great southern-inspired food menu next to vintage), The Observatory (great burgers), and Flying Pie (extremely filling pizza and calzones). All of these spots are around 82nd ave. and Stark. You should also check out Mt. Tabor park for some good hikes and nice views of PDX.

Wotta night

I live on the north side of Mt Tabor and I love it.
