    God was that a crappy band live. At least the first incarnation. Best band to ever come out of Portland was Poison Idea. They absolutely ruled this town before grunge. Their albums were like gasoline mixed with cat piss and they came to town looking for beer and junk food. Pig Champion was a 400 pound love muscle. Now THAT was a band!

    LOVED Heatmiser. Floater ' s lead singer's voice grated on me. Great band live.

    Funny how Portland is this hipster band capital of the world now. I remember after the whole grunge movement died off how many musicians I knew complaining about the lack of venues and quality musicians. Portland likes to sell itself as this Uber hip arts haven filled with Left Bank anarchist types. It's more Tom McCall Society than it is that, if anything.

    The first time I saw nirvana they were opening for my favorite Portland band, Completely Grocery, at the Portland Underground. Nirvana didn't have an album yet, and we left cause they were so fucked up they were falling down and tripping over the drums, and sounded like shit. Came back when Grocety was on.

    Also loved Hitting Birth, drunk at Abi's, Big Daddy Meat Straw and the Darmha Bums

    I know you don't know this but I know all of the Network and they are pretty good people. My brother was a pretty big part of that band when they were very new.
