Tub Ring
One of my old Favorite bands is playing in Portland soon.

That is, it is one of the only favorite bands I have ever had (I don't listen a lot lately, but I also don't have anything I listen to as much as I used to listen to Tub Ring).

Anyway, I thought I would post about it here and share the love a little.

Tub Ring's Web Site

Show info:ROCK 'N ROLL PIZZA

September, 5 2008 at Creature Feature, Tub Ring, Schoolyard Heroes, Toxic Zombie, Venicular Paranoia
11140 SE Powell Blvd, PORTLAND, Oregon 97220
Cost : $10 adv. / $12 door

advance tickets available through www.ticketswest.com

I used to go see them in Chicago and Madison all the time. I think I saw them a grand total of twice after moving to L.A. And of course I *just* missed their last show in Portland, they played a week before I moved here. Which has been my luck for a while (they played in L.A. the week before I moved there, and in Chicago a week after I moved away).

Also, I am assuming that since it is a pizza place it is reasonably kid friendly (mine is almost 12 and loves Tub Ring). Is that a safe assumption?

rock n roll pizza isn't really much of a pizza place so much as a smokey dive bar that has a stage seperate from the bar to allow it to be an all ages venue. There was like a window to get food/drinks and earplugs from. You
ll probably need the ear plugs.

but i've only beem there once and it had to be at least two years ago now. Ymmv.

I don't really recall seeing as I was under 21 at the time but if it's like other venues, like the hawthorne and roseland etc, you have to keep the alcohol in the bar area.

I was there for a show last weekend. Keep your kid next to you, don't let him use the bathroom and you can't even take cups of water out of the bar area. There is a food/drink buying area to the left of the stage but not many places to sit. The place has been sold. Supposedly will become a karaoke bar so the management doesn't seem to care too much about the place anymore. Especially the ladies bathroom. Ugh.
Also the stage is about 4 1/2 feet off the ground and it's standing room only. And the parking sucks so get there early.
