chris Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 I'll be in Portland Nov. 1-5 and would like to catch some jazz and/or blues shows. Anyone know of anything going on there?

What's Jimmy Mak's like? Casual? Is it a smoke-free place? Can I watch the show and get drinks or is it a full dinner deal? Thanks in advance...

You can either eat a full dinner there (Greek food) or just order drinks or a dessert. There is no minimum food/drink charge. Just a cover charge to get in. I live in Portland and if you'd like to go record/cd shopping or get a tour of the town, just PM me and we can set it up. I've lived here for 20+ years and really love this town....

I'll know more of my daily schedule after a meeting today, but I think I might have burned up most of my time between this show, a Blues Association show, and some time at Powells... but if not, I might take you up on that offer I've been to Portland twice and really liked it-- I'm eyeing a move there in a couple of years (when my kids are out of high school)...
