FUBAR this Friday: Treasure Fingers

4 Comments »

UPDATE: Rumor has it Treasure Fingers in unleashing all new production tonight! Be there or be ??.

Portland is definitely on the map, and much of that can be attributed to the excellent booking of those at Rotture, Holocene, etc. As you’ve likely noticed, Donnis will be taking the stage at Berbatis Pan this friday as the opening act, but what to do after? Well it just so happens his FOOLS GOLD label-mate Treasure Fingers will be headlining FUBAR just over the bridge.

Though of entirely different genres on the surface, Treasure Fingers and Donnis share a similar skill. For Donnis that skill is turning clever phrases using metaphor and an extremely precise flow, taking excellent production and making it his own; Treasure fingers similarly uses precision in turning sounds to songs, remixing what is already there into something he too can call his own.

Kid Sister @ Holocene 10/21/09

I’ve gotta ask… Where the hell was Portland at this Kid Sister show? Was it the Wednesday night? Was it the nearly $20+ price tag?

Whatever it was, the lack of folks in attendance inspired the promoters to section off the two main floors at Holocene for an all ages crowd, leaving the narrow bar the only place to hold a drink. Needless to say, this cut down a major chunk of the dancing that might have been done during Rude Dudes & Flosstrodamus’ set. Commendable effort by those guys though. It was almost depressing watching them attempt to hype a headliner in a relatively empty venue.
