Portland...

We are in Portland this morning. At our last show in San Francisco, I was told by two separate people not to expect much from a show in this town because "people don't go to shows in Portland." Well, I think I can speak for everyone when I say that the show last night super fun, and the Towne Lounge was full of people. Our friends Gingerbread Patriots played this show with us, and it was nice to finally meet them after having talked to them for the last year and a half or so... This tour has been really great for meeting some of our internet friends in person. Musee Mecanique also played with us, and those guys are super talented. I can't wait to hear their new album when it's done...

We leave for Seattle in an hour and a half (assuming Rachel is ready) for a show tonight at the Crocodile Cafe sponsored by Three Imaginary Girls. I am especially excited about Seattle because I get to see my girlfriend, who just moved out there a few weeks ago! More on Seattle later... And I promise we will talk about California again, too. We miss Slings dearly!

Here are some photos from the SF show taken by Ted from Bagel Radio...
