Events It's Happening Tonight!
Posted by Alison Hallett on Mon, Mar 4, 2013 at 3:45 PM
ROCK—The ardent punk rock of Divers is without match in this city, making the Portland quartet one of the absolute must-see bands around town. With only a 7-inch to their name, they already command a flawless repertoire of torn-jean, frayed-heart, gasoline-dipped songs that'll make you shout along 'til you're hoarse. NL
w/Broncho, the Blank Tapes, Jaret Ferratusco; Doug Fir, 830 E Burnside, 9 pm, $8
MUSIC 'N' FUN—If you're a resident of Portland and still haven't seen the funnest, badassiest brass 'n' drums band in town, do yourself a favor and celebrate MarchFourth Marching Band's 10th anniversary! Mixing funk, jazz, and rock with vaudevillian theatrics, costumes, and tons of get-down energy, they're what Portland is all about. Happy birthday, band! WSH
Crystal Ballroom, 1332 W Burnside, Sun 4 & 8:30 pm (all ages), Mon 9 pm (21+), $11-25
