Rock-n-Roll Odyssey Day 2: Going to Pine Street Theater tonight in Portland, OR, to see Husker Du (with The Detonators opening!)--who's going?

Oh, wait--it's not 1985. Shit. Never mind.


Rock-n-Roll Odyssey Day 2.5: Multnomah Falls, OR, 20 minutes east of Portland. This beautiful landmark provided Greg Sage with the inspiration to pen that mighty Wipers classic "Over The Edge"; the artistic epiphany came when, after hiking to the top while enduring a series of all-too-familiar accusations and insults, he couldn't take it anymore and pushed his crazy girlfriend--you guessed it--Over The Edge . . . of the falls.



Here's me, following in Greg Sage's footsteps (fortunately for her, my wife ran off with Don Dokken yesterday, so she's in no danger of being tossed off the falls)--I kept getting weird looks from everyone on the trail, and I couldn't figure it out, until I heard someone whisper "Unabomber" behind my back. I think my kids are going to turn out great.


Here's the view Greg Sage's crazy girlfriend saw just before she felt his hands on her back, launching her into empty space.
