The Laurelthirst Pub on NW Glisan in Portland is a place I like to go and draw while listening to some great local bands. The music starts at 6pm so I can go on a work night and not be too wrecked for work the next day. I like the Kung Pao Chickens. They're a kind of Gypsy Jazz band that used to play early on Mondays but they moved them to the late show so - too late for me now. I also like Lewi Longmire's country rock band. He reminds me a bit of the Jayhawks.I get there early and draw before it gets too packed to see anything. I started this drawing at about 5PM and by the time the bands started, around 6:15, the place was filled.
They also serve vegetarian food.

Hey there - I've been chicking out your stuff for a while - really like it. Found you through Urban Sketchers (I think) I used to drink in the LaurelThirst - Remember that bar! good stuff.

I like your work very much, thanks for your kind words. May I use this sketch for a quick flyer for a show at the Thirst?
ReplyDeleteAlso- maybe we could work out using some of your work on a new LP I'm getting ready to release?
Please contact me when you have a minute.
