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 KeysNKrates (tonight!), FUEL.TV/Campus Rail
Jam After Party (fri), Talib Kweli After Party (fri), and a booth at Massive (sat) and The Mountain Goats (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. (These are from Leigh, not Pipeline.)
Free music ish… DJ Zimmie's ‘You Know You Done Funked Up, Right?' Mix. It's perfect for bboys and bgirls and any fan of funk, breaks, classics and new sounds. http://www.mediafire.com/?2iizycydmnj … You can see DJ Zimmie live this Friday at Pioneer Square and at night at the Campus Rail Jam After Party at Plan B (SE 8th & Main) along with a few other special guests!
Awesome Ish… This Friday is the Cricket Campus Rail Jam Tour FINALS at Pioneer Square! The event kicks off at 4pm and over 50 skiers and snowboarders will compete on 30 tons of snow to win 5k in cash. The event is free (plus there is a beer garden!) and there is tons of free swag being handed out. Definitely recommended! Then come to the after party at Plan B (1305 SE 8th.. two blocks North of Hawthorne) where all the athletes, product reps and party people will be getting down at this two stage, 5 dj, indoor/outdoor party. Should be a fun Friday!
More Awesome ish… It's the last Saturday of the month and that means one thing — Massive! This Saturday at the Crown Room LifeisaParty teams up with LaMontane Marketing Group, Capital, Tecate and PDX Pipeline to bring you one of the most ridiculous monthly parties you can imagine. Dj's, performers, artists, a $1 beer wheel and FREE entry before 10pm if you say LifeisaParty at the door.
See you all out and about! Leigh Feldman

QDoc, the only queer documentary film festival in the US, begins 
You can't resist the mythological danciness of Pegasus Dream! Halfway between Battles and Of Montreal, these two newcomers are making a bountiful way about town with their bouncy meets heavy pop magic.
More than 15,000 beer lovers will converge upon Portland this summer to enjoy the sixth annual North American Organic Brewers Festival – the event will take place June 25 through 27 at Overlook Park.
With an arsenal of banjos, guitars, mandolin, fiddle, pedal steel, upright bass, and thundering drums, RPS's sound is a wholesome mishmash of creek mud, rusty nails and your mom's cookin'. It's sincere, straight-forward and sexy as ****, effortlessly combining such disparate musical styles as rock, country, bluegrass, and punk to create an incomprehensibly smooth and accessible sound for true believers and skeptics alike.
