SHAFTY- A Phish Tribute
From the event description:
What began as essentially a goof — a chance to throw down some familiar dancy beats and jam for whoever felt like listening — ultimately lit a spark under the off-the-radar powder keg of Phish fans in the Portland, Oregon music scene. The demand for a repeat was high, and Shafty was born. If there’s a motive, it’s to recreate the energy of a Phish show, with the attitude of playful band-audience interaction at the forefront and sharp musical skill acting as a behind-the-scenes glue to hold it all together. Classic Phish gimmicks are in full force: trampolines, megaphones, choreographed dances, vacuum cleaner solos, instrument switching, and the secret language are alive and well at a Shafty show.
When: Saturday, June 29, 9 p.m.- Sunday, June 30, 2 a.m.
Where: Goodfoot Pub & Lounge, 2845 S.E. Stark St.
