Leigh sent out his weekly email of Portland weekend events earlier today. It is 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
There are many listings so we have put events in red (or blue = linked!) that we think will be good, well attended, or should be interesting.
Reminder: We give out free tickets every week to our Portland Facebook Group including to many of the top music and art venues in Portland. Join it if you like free stuff.
From Leigh Feldman:
Things I'm currently jocking…
Free music ish… Doctor Adam's ‘Class is in Session' mix. It runs the gamut of genres and he'll be playing at Hot Mess, this Friday night at Tube: www.divshare.com
Knowing that if this grey weather keeps up (weirdest summer ever) I can stay at home and just bake some bread – youtube. Psyche! (when's the last time someone used that term?) I'll be out looking at art for First Thursday!
Life is a party, everyone is just waiting to be invited.
See you all out and about! Leigh Feldman

Aging like a cellar-kept bottle of the type of vino so few of us artistic types can ever afford when not dining with our parents, Amon Tobin marches forth with a career that improves with each turn of the calendar page. His reputation is bulletproof—even with a foray into scoring videogames (the soundtrack to something called Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory)—with a track record for quality recordings and sweat-soaked live shows that date back to late '90s IDM and will probably continue into whatever new trend anchors electronic music in the coming decade.
