Missing Ornette Coleman but finding Stand Up Comedy
It has been mad around here. When Jazz Fest got started, I kept hoping Ornette Coleman would pull up, you know? He’s got to stay somewhere. But no luck. And I didn’t get to see him either because we were at the coast for something I couldn’t get out of.
Actually, it was a friend’s birthday, and it did get me to this awesome store over on east Burnside called Stand Up Comedy that I’d never been to before. That’s the name of the place and I don’t even think I can really describe it. You just have to go.
It’s got some wild fashions (men and women), accessory stuff like bags, really cool books or what I’d call print art. Really quirky, unusual stuff. They even sell a guitar effects pedal. I don’t know. Oh, and they have in-store performances, too.
You gotta love Portland.
Later,
Keith
