05.01.08 | Sam Howard heads to PDX!
Maria and I could not be more thrilled to have Sam grace PDX with his presence. He is a fantastic musician and a beautiful human being.
Below is a blog I jacked from his myspace.

Portland baby, Portland!

After a visit to OR, I came to the conclusion that nowhere else on earth is the air so fresh, the earth so green, the music so good and the beer so delicious. So, I'm packing up the truck and hitting the pavement, taking the long and leisurely route across this vast and beautiful land. I couldn't be more excited to start this new chapter.

Thanks and farewell to all the New York folks, it's been a solid jam, and I look forward to visiting frequently (so keep your couch open!)

Portland crowd, can't wait to get out there and hang with y'all. Be there in June!

Keep on keepin' on,

sam
