Posted by Ezra Ace Caraeff on Wed, Jun 10, 2009 at 1:58 PM
Celebrating their 15th year of college radio excellence, KPSU is throwing a free bash in Pioneer Square on the 27th of June. This all-age, all-day event within "Portland's rumpus room," (or whatever the square is nicknamed) will feature a bevy of talented local bands: Tender Forever, Nurses, Church, Jared Mees and The Grown Children, Everyday Prophets, The Last Regiment of Syncopated Drummers and tons more as well.
Plus Ground Kontrol will be there for a Rock Band Tournament, in addition to all sorts of other attractions, from "Pole Dancing Demos" to Henna artists.
I know what you are thinking: they had you at Henna.
Me too, man.
Full release after the jump. Look for me in the pole dancing line.
