Portable Shrines

from arthur magazine…..

Arthur readers and alike, I spoke with Jay this morning and the sad news is circulating that guitarist Jack Rose has passed on to the next realm.  It’s with a heavy heart that I say this, but thoughts and prayers are with family and loved ones.  He had fans around the world and everyone should know about Jack and his music.  His style is like no other.

Check out the Arthur site for some videos and MP3′s……

someday we will have better news to post, promise dear readers….

Bob passed away friday…a local Seattle fixture at garage shows he was an avid photographer and all around great dude. I got to know him at Budget Rock a few years back and he will be sadly missed.

10 Things Zine Blog post about Bob Kondrak’s passing…

thanks to bob and dan 10 things.....

Portable Shrines reccomends you go this Saturday at the Lo-Fi Performance Gallery, you won’t want to miss the Seattle debut of psych-pop band Boatclub from Oakland, CA! They will be performing with local paisley-pop icons The Green Pajamas, Tacoma’s The Drug Purse & DJ Brother James.

Boatclub’s Matt Piucci and John Thoman are former members of legendary 80′s psych-rock band The Rain Parade. If you were a fan of the paisley underground bands of that era, come down to the Lo-Fi and see for yourself what Matt & John are cooking up these days.

The Green Pajamas ruled the Seattle paisley underground during the 80′s, I cannot count the number of times I danced to Kim the Waitress-at a show I used my fake id to get into or at home in my room alone.

LOVE PEACE DANCE.
