The Forth are one heck of a Portland rock band. For the past two years they have been playing the Portland area, putting on energetic and sincere rock shows. They have time signatures that could make the tempo challenged kids puke and a strong sense of melody that ties everything together. If you see this band is playing, go. Don't think. Go. Ash St. May 8th.



The movers and shakers of Protest Hill Productions, a new Portland-based promotion company, Larson and Hi-z funnel their powerful man-angst through vaccuum tubes and staple guns. Hi-Z is songerwriter and frontman of local rock sensation system and station. Larson is some other guy. We think. Maybe Hi-z has invisible friends.
