Music on film - Vortex I coming soon!
"Malfukshun: The Andrew Wood Story" is plugging along this week. Despite a monster writeup in the Willamette Week - and other strong reviews, it looks like Labor Day got the best of it. It's just about ready to finish its run - with one more screening at MusicFestNW. Definately a must see for NW music fans - and ironically, may face the same fate as MC5: A True Testomonial - as it appears to be having distribution issues.
Aside from the excellent selection of music films playing next week, we've got a locally-made gem booked for the end of September. "Vortex I: A Biodegradable Festival of Life" played at the Bagdad back in August and packed the house. It's a short, sweet documentary that follows the production of a Woodstock-style rock show called Vortex I - that took place near Estacada, OR. Don't want to give too much away, but it's very good - and a great slice of Oregon's psycedelic and political history.

Thanks for the great comments about "Vortex I". I produced the show for Clackamas County Government Channel and we had no idea it would break out from the very small viewing audience we usually have. Our thanks also to the Clinton Street Theater for showing it.

Hi Greg and Michael,
I'm the blog producer at OregonLive.com and am writing to ask if you'd like to help out with our Clinton neighborhood blog, found here: http://www.oregonlive.com/clinton/weblog/. Hau, our author, has recently added a lot of busy-ness to her life and has had trouble keeping up to date as much as she'd like. So, I thought one of you two might want to post a couple times a week or maybe you know someone who would? Please let me know...
