Wait…

I was looking forward to reading Willamette Week’s write-up of Storm Large. I developed my Storm crush last year while she was on that RockStar show. Rick Emerson and I even started a blog about the whole thing. It was called Dave Navarro Is A Gigantic Douche and for one brief moment, it was genius. The moment has passed. I doubt Storm ever saw it. She did see me once though and she said high. Being the bashful Bean I am, I choked out a “hi” and scurried to the other side of the room.

Back to the task at hand…

I didn’t even make it through the second paragraph. Why? Because I discovered Beth Ditto lives in Portland. Why did no one ever tell me this?

Who’s Beth Ditto you ask? THIS is Beth Ditto

    I don’t know how often she performs here. Yesterday I would have told you she’d never been to town. Now I find a YouTube of her dressed as Dolly Parton singing at the Mission. Her Wikipedia page shows her performing at the Wonder. I honestly had zero idea this was her (adopted) hometown.
