Driving to Portland Oregon

Posts: 2349 Threads: 79

Hello folks. I'm leaving for Portland EARLY tomorrow morning. Another semi reunion with the old 'boys in the band'. They are always fun get together's where we attempt to remember our collective misspent youth. And out fib one another. Anyway, are there any interesting piles of petrified percussion items to gaze upon there or on the way there. I'm driving up from the Fresno CA area. Thanks!

Hey,

Once you get to Portland, be SURE to check out Revival Drum Shop! It's a great new (less than a year old) vintage drum/cymbal shop. Also, if you like "hunting", be sure to check out Trade-Up Music (2 locations), as they often times have gems among their large selection of used stuff.

I'm there!

Queen of Sheba? Never tried Ethiopian. I guess now is that time!

The motel claims they have wifi. If it works, I'll continue to check back.

Thanks!
