The complete info on Laurie Anderson's visit to TBA will be released at PICAs TADA gala Saturday night. The early event is pricey, but the second one might be doable. Full info on TBA should be in this website by Monday.

Stuff to keep you busy this weekend:
Out in Baker, the Oregon Symphony is swinging through town for a Saturday night concert!
Also, Riverfest is kicking off Saturday in Bend. My pick? Wet House, a film about some crazy rafters who go all voer the world seeking watery thrills.
More aquaeous fun can be had at the Oregon River Games on the Upper Clackamas River just east of Estacada.
Then there's the FREE MASTER RECYCLER 
PLASTIC RECYCLING ROUNDUP Saturday in Portland. Theyll take just about anything!
Concerts Saturday night in Portland include 3 Leg Torso @ Mississippi Studios (Amazing band! Amazing venue!) Also a cool band playing at Ground Kontrol, Portland's super cool retro arcade/pub.
