Events It's Happening Tonight!
Posted by Alison Hallett on Thu, Sep 2, 2010 at 12:52 PM
RE-HUNG!—Portland's favorite euphemistic billboard, the Hung Far Low sign, disappeared from downtown two years ago when the owners discovered it was about to fall down. Now after over $70,000 in repairs, the 2,000-pound sign is ready to be re-erected! The gift wrap (no, really) comes off tonight during First Thursday. SM
Corner of NW 4th & Couch, 7 pm, FREE
SOCAL SOUND—Having shot to fame a year ago with the release of their debut album Up from Below, Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros return to Portland for two nights, with a complex sound that's a little psychedelic '60s, a little boho-rock '70s. CP
w/Lulacruza; Wonder Ballroom, 128 NE Russell, Thurs & Fri, 9 pm, $18-20, all ages
There's more where that came from: My, What a Busy Week!
