Yeah dude. She's one of my favorite discoveries this year. Screw Sasquatch, I just want a triple bill of her, Camp Cope, and Courtney Barnett. We’ll call it AussieDaze. I would be at this in an instant. Sorta unrelated but the other week was the best collection of female centric new releases in forever. Camp Cope, Soccer Mommy, and Lucy Dacus all put out incredible albums on the same day.

School has made it difficult to get a lot of research done. Aiming to fix that soon! Lots of good stuff in your ?? section. Pup and Phoebe Bridgers are probably up your alley. Escort is the type of thing you'd be into but no idea if it's done well or poorly. Sango is a great producer but no idea what his set will be like. His album with Dave B is really good.

Upstream promotion email this morning. I wonder who the reunited favorite is? It wouldn't be Pedro The Lion would it? Definitely not big enough. They played Tractor a few months back. Of reunions happening recently...maybe Jawbreaker? Absolute pipe dream: Sunny Day Real Estate. Havent played together in a while but Jeremy Egnick played a great solo set last year...

Would you call Swans metal? I mean maybe? I don't think it would be wrong per se...

I've always had a huge soft spot for them as someone who went to college in Salem when they were just getting going. My first month of college I went to see Mt Eerie play and Typhoon opened. I was blown away and had no idea that Salem had such a good music scene. Did you go to Willamette? Where did Mt Eerie play? Yup. He played at the Ike Box which was was (is?) such a cool venue. I remember being really jealous that the high school kids had a spot that cool to hang out at.

Great band and great write up. I've always had a huge soft spot for them as someone who went to college in Salem when they were just getting going. My first month of college I went to see Mt Eerie play and Typhoon opened. I was blown away and had no idea that Salem had such a good music scene. Turns out, it's just Typhoon and no one else.

So rude to the legendary Soundset.Please respect your midwest white rapper elders. I wondered why Atmosphere was billed above Wu-Tang, and then i remembered Minnesota. It's just cause it is Atmosphere's festival. It's a pretty fun one too! Even though the lineup is always a little too skewed towards white frat boys first festival. I laughed really hard at Logic headlining.

Looks like Tyler, The Creator will NOT be playing on the Sunday as we initially thought. He's playing some hip hop festival in Minnesota on the Sunday. So rude to the legendary Soundset.Please respect your midwest white rapper elders.

I heard they lost $20 million last year, I wonder how deep Paul Allen is willing to go into his pocketbook... Source? I know folks in the industry who say it exceeded initial expectations and that this year was going to be even bigger. Whatever goes down, I had and absolute blast last year and I hope it sticks around. Yeah I spoke to someone who works at Vulcan and was told it was profitable last year.

If I recall correctly I saw them in Calgary twice about 6 months apart. First time they still had instruments. Second time... all balloons baby!!!! I caught them when they were still releasing demos years ago and they were pretty damn mesmerizing! Getting rid of the weirdo pipe instrument and sheet background was a terrible decision.

Just watched Good Time. Fucking awesome. Kinda same vibe as Drive but the score was done by Oneohtrix Point Never (I copy and pasted that shit cuz I never say it right lol). Robert Pattinson was a badass and I now think he needs to be in a ton of shit. Always assumed I hated him due to twilight but nah Still waiting to see Phantom Thread but I think this is the best thing I saw last year. It just had a drive to it that was so much more exciting than all of the big, serious movies I saw this year. Pattinson was really phenomenal in it too. Apparently the brothers who made it are working on a 48 hours remake with Jerrod Carmichael right now which I am cautiously very excited about.

Partnering with TLE is a great idea. Hopefully we get some great Portland showcases. Unrelated but the Typhoon show in a couple weeks at the Croc is sold out which makes me sad because I didn't get tickets but happy because Typhoon is the best.
