Last Monday, Stephen, Megan and I journeyed up to Portland to catch a screening of Animal Collective’s visual album, ODDSAC. After the show, band members Avey Tare and Deakin said what’s up to us… Ch-ch-ch-check it out.
After their performance with Built to Spill and Disco Doom at the WOW Hall back in November, our friends Finn Riggins took the time to say hello to us from the depths of the women’s bathroom. Why? We don’t know… it just made sense at the time.
Prior to their free concert hosted by the University of Oregon Cultural Forum on October 30th, Natalie Portman’s Shaved Head took a few minutes out of their day to tell the Oregon Voice just how much they love us. We love them equally. They, of course, put on a fantastic show with Hockey and Eugene’s own, DJ Chilly Willy.
It seems 2009 is the year of hip-hop in Eugene… validated by an appearance of Ghostface Killah at the WOW Hall. The Voice was there…
Just one of many moments that were captured on the OV road trip to Portland for MusicFest Northwest.
The picture quality came out pretty wirey, but I did take liberties with showing off my hebrew skillz (we’ll see about that).
Until next time, shalom! And a quick ‘hello’ from Ami Shalev of Monotonix.
