Summer is here. Kind of. But let's forget about the weather for a second and focus at the topic at hand (well, the topic that doesn't have to do with "Jason Evers" turning out to be a robot spy) and look at the beginning out the outdoor music season here in Bend.
Tonight, the Goo Goo Dolls open up the Les Schwab Amphitheater in style with a big show sure to bring many of us back to the glory days of the late 1999s. And just look out your window - it's not raining!
The music continues on Sunday at the LSA when Band of Horses, fresh off the release of their new record, Infinite Arms, light up the stage with one of the most talked-about shows (at least in some camps) I've witnessed in my time here. Opening the show, of course, is She & Him, the superstar duo that I profiled in this week's issue.
There's also the Sasquatch Festival (where I'll be) happening up at the Gorge and a ton of other shows happening around town. Check out our clubs and live music calendar for a guide.
Happy music weekend everyone!
