Sessions friend and snowboader Johnny marr who is in the band The Cribs will be performing this Sunday in Portland Oregon!

In keeping with their age old tradition of the secret, free show, The Cribs will be playing a secret 'hometown' (for Gary, at least) show in Portland, OR this Sunday!! It will be at the downtown Jackpot Records, and will be the first US performances of any of the Ignore The Ignorant songs, and the band are excited to do this in Portland, all ages, and for free. Info is below, from Jackpot Records. Free, all ages live show to celebrate the release of THE CRIBS "Ignore the Ignorant". Unless you’re wintering in Belgium or holding tickets to upcoming Letterman tapings, chances to see the The Cribs in person anytime soon are minimal to nil. simply walk through the door of Jackpot Records on Sunday, November 8th 2 PM. For an instore performance w/ The Cribs free at Jackpot Records (Downtown Location) to promote their new album "Ignore The Ignorant" The brothers Jarman, along with new brother and guitarist Johnny Marr, will be rocking an absolutely free, all ages instore at our downtown location. Topping their previous honor of selecting Jackpot Records as one of three places IN THE WORLD to sell the deluxe Roses (they’ve really taken to their new Portland homes) Edition of their latest album “Ignore The Ignorant”, they’ve picked us as the launch pad for their upcoming tour. After this they’re off to a Letterman taping, a few coast dates and then the world. In all practicality, this is it for seeing them this year until they return to America to tour in January 2010. Come early to find a spot and brace yourself. We predict a swift transition from SRO to SOL. If you’re unfamiliar with a Cribs gig, it’s not exactly an evening with The Chordettes.
