Something felt off from the beginning last night—or early morning I should say, it was 1 a.m.—at Buffalo Billiards. There was a thickness in the air that warns when something might go wrong.Poor Menomena—my favorite Portland group—they didn’t look happy. They were plagued from the start by a sound check gone awry, which consequently turned the hungry audience into a starving one. One mem
I'm not the first to post about Menomena's new album Friend & Foe (I have "Jameson":http://mog.com/Jameson to thank for getting me on board with them), but thought I'd share a new video that I came across this morning at "Gorilla vs. Bear":http://gorillavsbear.blogspot.com/" --Per G vs B:Friday, March 09, 2007wet and rusting"MTV's Subterranean Blog premiered the hilarious new Lance Bangs-direct...
The night after I saw Fleet Foxes, I went back to The Independent again to see Menomena. It was an okay show and they didn't really do anything new from what I saw, but I got some good photos in the meantime. Here's my full set.
I must be slowing down in my old age. It's become way harder for me to keep tabs on what the kids are listening to these days... even in the advent of all these helpful music networking sites!A friend of mine casually mentioned that I should listen to Menomena's "Friend and Foe" (if I hadn't already), and sure enough I had not. At first none of the songs really grabbed me... then I latched onto...

Hey gang... I'm currently working on a poster for one of my favorite bands, Menomena. They're simply brilliant. (if you don't have their latest, "Friend And Foe", why not?

I've finished one, but I'm ...
