An Evening at Dr. Raven’s Manor
A new bar opened in downtown Portland. Raven’s Manor is a haunted mansion themed cocktail lounge that Christine and I were dying to check out.
Portland’s Robotic Goths
Here are two “Portland excels at…” links I have run across in the past week. I lurk on the Portland Industrial Gothic (PIG) mailing list. Actually, “lurk” is an understatement. I subscribe, the messages come into my inbox, and the vast majority of them get moved, unread, to an archive folder. One subject line recently … Continue reading Portland’s Robotic Goths
Randomness: The Goth Bus, Bad Bologna, DTV, Mice, and my new WordPress theme
GOTH Bus. The photo is a little blurry, but every time I see “60TH” on the bus marquee, I see it as “GOTH.” Fake Bologna. Last night we had some soy bologna out as an hors d’oeuvre’s spread amongst cheeses, greek olives, apples, and crackers (actually, digestive biscuits, if you want to get fancy.) The … Continue reading Randomness: The Goth Bus, Bad Bologna, DTV, Mice, and my new WordPress theme
The little things

Dark Busses

The Mutant Room
Supposedly, I had some bad dreams last night. I remember startling awake a few times, but I do not remember any details. What I DO remember is the excellent and realistic dream I had just before waking up. It was mainly about a place — a club or bar — that my brain insists is … Continue reading The Mutant Room

Decoding Club Fliers
This just came in from the PIG (Portland Industrial Gothic) mailing list I’m on… In case you’ve ever wondered what some of the terms and phrases on Club fliers really mean… “All ages” = as if telling someone’s age in zombie inspired make up and near dark conditions weren’t difficult enough already “All night long” … Continue reading Decoding Club Fliers
Weekend Review
Friday! This was the night of the East:Meets:West show at Outlaws. I had never been to the venue before, but have to admit it was great for this kind of show. It is the second and third stories of what used to be a dance hall back in the day. I guess most nights of … Continue reading Weekend Review
