NO SHOWS WHAT?

The Dandy Warhols will play SNOWVANA this Friday, October 21st at Portland’s Memorial Coliseum. Here is a thing copy-pasted from the festival’s page:

Snowvana is different. It’s a true kickoff to the ski and snowboard season. It’s an entertainment festival with everything a snowsports enthusiast loves – ski and snowboard films, live music, the latest gear, and a brew fest. Unlike a ski swap or scattered ski film premiers, Snowvana is a single event, where the entire community of northwest skiers and riders can unite and truly celebrate the impending winter.

Attendees can also purchase or pick up their season pass from all of the Mt. Hood resorts as well as Mt. Bachelor. After all, you don’t want to be waiting in line to pick up your pass when your buddies are ripping fresh pow on opening day.

We’ll also be giving away 1,000+ lift tickets and five Snowvana Season Passes, the only season pass that gets you access to all three Mt. Hood resorts plus Mt Bachelor. These are the only five Snowvana season passes in existence. You can’t buy them… you can only get them at Snowvana.

ADMISSION: Suggested donation of $5 gets you a One-Day Pass which includes entry into the Friday Night Music Concert or the Saturday Film Fest, the Brew Fest and Exhibits. Kids 12 and under free.

Proceeds will benefit the following charities:

Children’s Cancer Association
Mt. Hood Ski Patrol

 

And now I’ll just sign my own name…

📚 Courtney’s Books: “The Brief History of the Dead”

IMG_20160722_045334

The Brief History of the Dead // Kevin Brockmeier

It’s strange how much life is in a book while you read it and the second you finish, it’s as if all that life has drained out.

This by the way is the strangest writer and book yet. He is basically showing off how much minutae he notices in day to day life. He also is showing off how trippy stream of consciousness he can be. And I must say he is fucking good at both.

There’s a problem with consistency here where one minute it’s surviving the Arctic and the next it’s pages of an elderly couple musing about their unremarkable relationship. There’s also the girl riding in the giant dog’s fur ‎with the marble formations dripping between the shafts only to dissolve into the sun. Or whatever.

I used this book to put myself to sleep. It was phenominally interesting and equally boring in turn. Strange. Truly.
