Re Portland, OR Song Circles:
The info in the link above about NW song circles does not seem to be complete or up-to-date for PDX.
The Monday night song circle has been on Bidwell in the Sellwood area Sept 1 thru and Oct. 29, 2001. Merle Korn is still a good contact person ( or go to the PFS website) to see where it will be in Nov and later.
There is also a PFS 2nd SATURDAY SONG CIRCLE - check the website for details on where it will be each month. It has been at Mary Wiley's on SE Lincoln (503-231-1387).
Non-PFS Song Circles & Jams:
Artichoke Music - SE 32nd and Hawthorne, Portland - Saturdays 2PM to 4PM (sometimes goes longer)
Yola's Foster Road Coffee House, corner of SE Foster and 65th. Most every Sunday 1PM to 3PM (or sometimes until 5PM). Contact Genie at geniesings@hotmail.com for information.
