| Readers of the latest
issue of Rolling Stone might've noted that Eugene
took eighth in a list of the nation's top-10 college music towns.
Despite the fact that music management at the main campus watering
hole was flabbergasted in disbelief and disagreement, we gotta
be psyched to place ahead of Gainesville, Fla., and Columbus,
Ohio. Everyone knows that they're rockin', right? |
Check out a party
at the Lesson Factory featuring Tension Resolved,
a work of art by Milo, destined for U2's Bono at the New York
Grammy Awards. Justin King treats the art-goers to music as
does local band Orange, in an art evening out Green Acres Road.
See Thursday, Feb. 20 Calendar. |
 Think
there's another city in the whole world having a "Stitch
and Bitch" cloth menstrual-pad workshop? Doubtful. Lucky
Eugeneans can enjoy discussing and crafting on non-polluting,
empowering and good-for-you reusable pads at Foolscap Books.
Down with old-school, oppressive girl-gear! See Thursday, Feb.
20 Calendar.
