February is right around the corner and that means it’s time for another big party brought to you by the Just People Family. Put away your masks and let your colorful faces shine upon a backdrop of your finest black and whites.
Entertainment for this evening will be provided by:
JUST PEOPLE: These boys are the dedicated offspring of a generation of movers and shakers. Take the eloquence of Bob Dylan, mixed with the sheer power of Led Zeppelin, add a dash of The Beatles and for a nice after taste throw in some Talking Heads. The result is best described by Darcy Wallace of the Oregon Voice: ¬Å“JUST PEOPLE are tough to pin down, but damn it, it just sounds so good.¬Â
BEN UNION (CD RELEASE): A simple jam-session at Union Station EXPLODED overnight to become more than a name and more than simply music. The Union sparked what has gone from a grassroots campaign to a creative movement, with the Union gospel spreading like the fire of political revolution. With a live show that rivals IMAX and a militant following, this is a group to be reckoned with. JOIN THE UNION
AGE SEX OCCUPATION: Funk, soul-rock outfit AGE SEX OCCUPATION is a quickly rising band in Portland, OR.
MR. WU: Having shared the stage with talented acts such as, Block Head, Signal Path, Mochipet, Lorn, Splatinum, and others, “MR. Wu’s dark and heavy meets fun and funky sets keep the audience engaged from beginning to end”.
With additional guests:
LED Hula Hoopers – Just Hoopers
Stilt Walkers – Ambient Stilt Walkers
Live Art – Dane Eisenbart
Face Painters
Roaming Photography – Kyer Wiltshire
Audio Globe Production
The Portland Pick
Dress in your best black and whites, how formal or dirty is up to you.

OMG I would LOOOOOOOOOVE to win tickets. I already have my tickets but it’s my birthday celebration on Saturday and a couple of my friends are too poor to come and I can’t buy their tickets either! This would be so great so they could celebrate my birthday without breaking their bank!
