Tomorrow night is a match of the dueling fundraisers: p:ear blossoms and PICA's TADA. Lisa Radon gives a thorough run-down of the blunder on Ultra and points out the scheduling pickle that Portland's art patrons have been placed in with two major benefits double-booked. Whatever floats your boat, it seems you can't go wrong. Just pick one, at least, for goodness sake.

Hi Port(land)

No blunder here- PICA and p:ear both met to discuss the scheduling issue. Pear's event is from 6-9pm everyone who attends gets a ticket to the PICA birthday party which starts at 10- so I encourage ya'll to get yourself out to p:ear - bid and bid high, and then grab something to eat and head over to our party on the eastside. Fleshtone goes on at TEN PM.

See you there and there.
