Songbook PDX 13

American Legion Post 134 2104 NE Alberta St, Portland, OR, United States

From Facebook event: I'll be reading with an *amazing* group of writers on the songs that terrified and inspired us. Each reader will read their piece about a song that either terrified or inspired them. Then you'll hear the song. It's the literary mixtape you always wanted. And in my case, it's so. damn. queer. And funny in that painful hanging out alone behind the gym with your Walkman kind of way.
