City Hall Says "Music Matters" (We Agree)

The Sam Adams administration is, like, so gonna rock! The office of the mayor-elect is hosting a First Thursday "Music Matters" art show at City Hall:

The November City Hall Art Show is centered on the notion that "Music Matters" and it will highlight artists documenting our local music community. Come enjoy the historical and contemporary sights and sounds of Portland's music scene: band photographs, paintings, concert poster art, music memorabilia, and live performance by some of our best, brightest, and youngest musicians in our city!

The performers will be the kiddies from the Rock and Roll Camp for Girls and Old Library Studios, plus the event will also feature Adams proclaiming November 6th as "Music Matters for Youth Day." Not bad, I still wish he took my suggestion to dedicate the month of October to Skatoberfest, but whatever, man. My genius is clearly not appreciated by the squares at City Hall.

Rock is not about rebellion. It is the status quo. It is city hall.
