Damn I was just going to post about that. Ha.
Here is what Erik said about that video:

“Then thousands of 17-32 year olds worldwide either talked shit on portland or said ‘i was there’.

We are so totally famous on the internet right now. Maybe you saw yourself or your band or your friends’ band on there. Maybe you were at that house show.

Kinda neat. Kinda ‘big deal [shrugh]‘. I like how one of the bands was talking about how Portland has good food, then the shot cuts to Fords on 5th. whoa haha! THEN it cuts to Dante’s. Cool. I eat their pizza lots.

If Portland in 2009 can be Seattle in 199x (where x <= 5) then we all need to start working on making our creative output more commodifiable to outsiders. Particularly those with internet connections who might have been here 1 or less times.”
