7-11 (Near Southridge HS) Rock-athon

9510 SW 125th, Beaverton 97008

Cody & The Men Your Mama Warned You About --joined by special guest Jonathan Chase filling in on bass-- rock the 7-11 across from Southridge High School all... day... long... because (probably sit down for this) neither Southridge High School nor 7-11 has EVER had any official scat-rock, since scat-rock records have been kept (c. 1894). Therefore, the powers that be have declared that the harvest, the economy, and our nation's most precious resource (The Children) receive immediate aid and intervention in the form of a 5-hour marathon gig by the Northwest's premier scat-rock ensemble. With the luxury of extra time to cook all that piping-hot music, expect extended versions, instrument switching, new songs from Steve, and deeper explorations of Cody's 400-song catalog than ever heard before. The scat-rock recordkeeper's pain is your gain. Swing by, enjoy a trademark Slurpee, and participate in history-in-the-making!

FAMIPALOOZA: 2 GREAT SHOWS SAME DAY

Miss those heady college days when Perry Farrell told you what to do in his weird, squeaky voice? Pine no more, for FAMIPALOOZA is nigh! On 8/27, you can combine your three favorite things (the first being scat-rock) in one enormous family-friendly all-day* fun time (*including an appropriately significant pause). Scat-rock, farmers markets, food carts. That's right: I just spun your head. The extravaganza begins at 11:00, when Cody & A Man Or Two Your Mama Warned You About play at the Slocum Theater, right in the heart of Vancouver's downtown farmers market. Then you take a quick break for a salmon & a microbrew somewhere of your choosing --I'm not the boss of you. Then the action resumes with a second, early evening show by the full band at 6:00 hosted by Off The Griddle at the A La Carts Food Pavillion. Are you off your rocker with this crazy energy yet, man? Now go back and read this whole blurb again in your best Christopher Walken voice. You're welcome.

Slocum House Theater (11-1)

605 Esther St Vancouver, WA 98660

I want to get serious for a moment and talk to you about a problem many of us Northwesterners are too embarassed to admit plagues us: Farmers Market Overload. Experts from the John Tesh Institute say that as the summer season drags on, as many as 1 in every 4 purveyors of Farmers Markets may be prone to the sudden onset of a severe panic attack brought on by the unfamiliar fruits and vegetables confronting them at local farm stands. But never fear; the Slocum House Theater, in the heart of Esther Shore park, has arranged for panicky shoppers to have a sensory safehouse during market hours, with music graciously donated by Cody Weathers & The Men Your Mama Warned You About. Hide Local!

UPDATE: This show was cancelled. Consult the Oracle at Delphi for further insight.

Off The Griddle (A La Carts Food Pavillion) (6-8PM)

UPDATE: This show was cancelled by the government. Seriously. You write the city council and tell them to raise the scat-rock ceiling and stop all this political posturing.

Park Place Coffee

It's an old fashioned guitar duel (at totally appropriate volume and intensity levels for the venue in question). Which multi-instrumentalist not originally a guitarist is, in fact, the better guitarist: Cody or Tim? At long last, aficionados of The Men Your Mama Warned You About will have their answer. Well, some --including Cody-- would argue that the answer is obviously already Tim. But Cody's no *genius* and this debate can only be settled with lightning-quick reflexes and soulful licks the likes of which Tim routinely supplies and Cody has never been observed to produce. It'll be one for the ages!

For --while the weak forces of the 11 separate regional brews will create enough alcoholic adhesion to promote funkiness-- the listener's entropic vector will not yet have advanced irretrevably beyond the event horizon of blackout and chaotic stupor."
