    Just stayed here over the weekend.
    Very expensive, but ive never had food or meals like this. Felt like royalty!

    should have taken pictures of our food.

    Im a blue collared guy overall, but it is nice to get pampered once in a while and this place is right around the corner from Portland.
    Anyone been stayed or eaten here before?:

    Eaten the a million times, and am friends with a few folks in the restaurant side. Food is great. It’s a fun experience to enjoy every now-and then. Been to several events there, too. Glad you enjoyed it.

    That would make a beautiful homeless shelter.

    Oh it's so funny to be seeing you after so long, Inn.
    And with the way I look you understand
    That I am not impressed.
    Cause I heard you let that little homeless man
    Take off your party dress.
    I'm not going to get too sentimental
    Like those other sticky valentines,
    Cause I don't know if you've been housing somebody,
    I only know it isn't fine.
    Alison, I know this world is killing me.
    Oh, Alison, they can't stay free.

    Alison is a beautiful song. This is also great, from the 'angry young man' British rock era. Check out Joe Jackson if you dig this.

    Check out Big World.
    Recorded live at a small theater in NY by invitation only, asked crowd to be quiet on intro/outros.
    You'll dig NY jazz guitarist Vinnie Zummo.
    One of the best albums ever. Great writing.

    Back on topic, I've done several combo gigs at the Allison in Newberg, pretty fancy pants place, wouldn't let us move the piano, had to play in a very goofy formation.
