Isn't it wonderful that, back in the day, PDX had such a great scene that we could all find something to suit ourselves?

Rock is basically a very simple medium, and TOS lacked catchy, memorable songs. I can still hum a couple of songs by TOS competitors (The Confidentials come to mind), but can't really do that for TOS. The scene was undeniably vibrant, but in the cold light of day, the song composing wasn't quite there.

There were some local punk zines that would cover shows & bands in Portland with articles and pictures. These were available at Earth River Records & Diana's-both stores catering to the scene at that time. Also we had several local radio shows & a cable access show dedicated to punk, new wave & other "difficult listening musics" that would play your songs. One radio show on KLCC by Dave & Lenny. I always followed every story & song I could. I never got to see you live-being only barely in my teens & looking years younger- not to mention lacking any money or real personal freedoms. So I was an avid fan from afar.... I had to satisfy myself with local shows & bands with the occasional bigger shows-such as Black Flag, Dead Kennedys, etc. I first discovered TOS as a young teen in the early 80’s living in Eugene, Oregon.
