Leigh sent out his weekly email of Portland weekend events earlier today. It is mostly reproduced below with some additions by Pipeline. You can get the email and your chance to win hookups for shows and deals by emailing leighfeldman3 @ gmail and asking to join

From Leigh Feldman:
Things I'm currently jocking…

Free ish… We have tix here and will be giving away some on twitter (add @leighfeldman3) to the Lady Gaga After Party (tonight), King Fader presents 3 Way (fri), Kimya Dawson (sat) and to Zion-I, Amp Live, Marv Ellis, Animal Farm, Nicoluminous & ExoDub all together (sun)! Wanna win any of them? Forward this email to a friend, have them write us asking to join the group and we'll enter you both in a drawing to win — or you can find us on facebook at facebook.com/LifeisaPartyFB to get tickets, music and info on weekly events.

Free music ish… This has been quite an interesting summer in PDX. Hopefully this mix from Pittsburgh's DJ Zimmie will provide you some inspiration to enjoy the sunshine while it's here and go and barbq – soundcloud.com/djzimmie/dj-zimmie-you-gots-to-grill-volume-2

Awesome Ish… Pipeline is giving away tickets to Cyndi Lauper, Portland Folk Fest, Lady Gaga After-Party, Rooftop Cinema, The Hold Steady and more here.

More Awesome ish… MASSIVE is next weekend. Uh oh. That means trouble. Perhaps what is Portland's craziest event takes place next Saturday August 28th and this one will certainly be ridiculous. Fashion show by Candy Jones, DJ Fresh One from SD, the beer wheel and giveaways and and and and and .. and there is a lot. Prepare yourself.

Life is a party, everyone is just waiting to be invited.
See you all out and about! Leigh Feldman
