That is loony tune city right there . A friend of mine went to the show though, and she loved you guys. Definitely get out and explore a little more next, and look towards the East, and my favorite and former dwelling area, NoPo (North Portland). NoPo makes a Midwesterner feel right at home. Hope to see you's soon back OH.iamchadhearmesnorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08017175870956638572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1438233264333435764.post-58144124536772006192012-06-17T08:49:32.999-07:002012-06-17T08:49:32.999-07:00Bummed I missed the show, but glad that Lisa says,...Bummed I missed the show, but glad that Lisa says, "We will definitely be back." I miss you guys... but I guess I love living in Oregon more than living in Cincinnati. :")<br /><br />Anyway, glad the show was good, and definitely looking forward to more WUSSY music (whether it be live or recorded).<br /><br />~DanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1438233264333435764.post-6077713780960414482012-06-16T20:18:15.815-07:002012-06-16T20:18:15.815-07:00Mark, this blog is excellent.

(Admittedly, Wussy does like to laugh at our own jokes a lot.)<br /><br />Portland folks, you rock. Seriously. We will definitely be back. We loved that you came out and were so enthusiastic!!! We are loving the Pacific Northwest. Feels like a home away from home. <br /><br />And that show was...odd. While the last band was playing, I stood next to my friend (with the aforementioned pizza bosses) and he pointed at the stage and said, "Hey...You opened for THAT." Then laughed for about 3 minutes.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01085358741041881106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1438233264333435764.post-17875239858561158362012-06-16T18:18:33.206-07:002012-06-16T18:18:33.206-07:00This blog is one of the bext I have ever read.

Wussy is definitely on some sorts of herculean trial... Fuck you Homer<br /><br />Also, I thought only i knew of puke-farts.... I see a support group beginning.<br /><br />Keep up the awesome workSHAWΠ ABΠOXIOUShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07804393183845804559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1438233264333435764.post-23631938126630994922012-06-16T18:05:23.194-07:002012-06-16T18:05:23.194-07:00I'll second Chris on the show.

I've been hearing from my brother in Cleveland about you guys, and have had to make do with his stories and your recorded output. I love the albums, but the live show is something else.<br /><br /><br />I brought a group of 6 Wussy newbies, and you made 6 new fans! You're on pace!<br /><br />The show was so good, my friend and I decided to venture to Seattle for Friday's show. 2 shows in two days. Take that, Dave in Cleveland!<br /><br />Good luck with the rest of the tour. Wussy, come back to Portland soon. We'll get you a full room next time (and no goth band hogging the stage!).<br /><br />Best,<br />Tobytbatihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16542707662623890051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1438233264333435764.post-53804160267623184342012-06-16T16:23:40.114-07:002012-06-16T16:23:40.114-07:00I got to see Wussy hit it out of the park, under r...I got to see Wussy hit it out of the park, under rough conditions in Portland. After finishing teaching 5th grade for the year, I met a buddy to see our favorite band. Talk about having your own little secret. There really were only about 40 of us there to see the best band in the land. Wussy played like it was the Hollywood Bowl, and I only hope we responded in kind. The show was abbreviated, no doubt from being sandwiched between bad comedy and some band we didn't stay for. I moved to Portland in the late 90s, and now I experience the weird like the proverbial frog in a boiling pot. It was a hoot to experience Wussy’s view of Portland through some great stage banter. <br /><br />We made the most of the brief set, boogying, cheering and air-guitaring. Then we got a real treat. While breaking down their own gear (should I have helped?), the band chatted us all up. I begged Chuck and Lisa, “please come back! You are so awesome! We love you!” Rather than giving me a get-a-life look, they reached out their hands and thanked me. Is this band unreal of what? Come back to Portland Wussy! Cross the river to the real Portland, and play the Doug Fir or the Aladdin. Hell, play my basement. I’m on the east side.<br /><br />Your Pal, ChrisOur Photoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15745165514242126379noreply@blogger.com
