DLBD vs TWIABP Topshelf warz! Hahaha
I can get behind this (They are going to win because their band name is worse than ours ten fold)… But I should have upper decked Greg’s toilet when I was at his house so we could have started it right.

West Coast vs. East Coast. Lines have been drawn.
If you see someone acting a fool let them know: Emo is not a gang…
Just a dated genre of music.
I should’ve posted this a long time ago, but never mind that. This compilation was made to bring on the Duck. Little Brother, Duck! tour that happened earlier this summer. I think I ended up making about 175 CDs of it and gave them out around the country but now it’s up for free online. PLEASE support all of the amazing bands that are involved.
thank you for the continuous support

Since I (Kyle) have started being more actively involved with Friends For Life again, I figured I would post this here as well.
i luv u laughing horse, dont go away :(Hello friends. As you may or may not know, while Laughing Horse Books has stayed active, we have come upon a dire financial situation and may be unable to pay our rent and continue providing community space here in Portland. That is, if we do not make two months rent fast, we will be evicted.
We need you now more than ever. Radical spaces are struggling in Portland. Some infoshops have shut down over the past year and other spaces are fighting to stay afloat. Laughing Horse Books is the oldest radical book store in Portland, founded in 1985. It is collectively run and not for profit. Laughing Horse strives to spread awareness on the most important issues of our time. We carry radical literature and offer video rental services. We host a number of local music shows and community and political events in our space. We operate under a Safer Space policy; that is, all people are welcome, all our events are sober, and non-inclusive behavior is not tolerated. We need to keep this space alive to educate, inform, and invigorate our community and provide a welcoming space for all.
How can you help?
Come by to purchase a book, attend an event, donate money, or donate time before October 5th.
We are planning some exciting events coming up so keep an eye on the event calendar. Drop in any time to donate; money is our most immediate need, however, we could also use hands to help operate the store and book and staff events. Contact us by phone (see top of this page) or come visit the shop if you can offer us help.
Currently we also have an immense Sale Section. Gold stamp books are $1.00, Silver stamp books are $2.00! All other books are price as marked. Some topics include:
Activism
Environment
Sustainable Agriculture
Black Liberation
LGBTQ/Feminism/Gender Studies

Zines & PeriodicalsYou can always help the store by buying a book while simultaneously enriching your mind!
Come visit us, read some great books, get to know our collective, and attend our events! For more information, you can visit our facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LaughingHorsePDX
Thank you!
In love and struggle,

La Bella had the pleasure of playing here while on tour. This is a fantastic space run by some genuinely fantastic people. Please, do whatever you can to keep them active.
go to a show. buy a book. do whatever it takes. i’ve been going to laughing horse for almost 7 years and would hate to see it not be a thing.
This place is really really really important to us. We have easily played more than half of our shows as a band, at this space. I’ve seen a lot of amazing shows happen in this space. A lot of amazing people that we are stoked to call our friends, have donated a lot of time and energy to maintaining this incredible space. Our community and how awesome it has become, owes so much to this space. If there is anything you can do to help, now is the time.
Trying to give Waffle House a second chance… We still never did get our waffles.

With the musical prowess and aggression of bands like Fugazi and Shotmaker, We Were Skeletons’ unique brand of technical, groovy, and emotional hardcore should appeal to long-time fans of the genre while still pushing its boundaries. Imagine Hot Snakes, Slint, Sleepytime Trio, …
Getting too “buck” trying to tell you to listen to this.
my favorite.
We miss Duck. Little Brother, Duck!!!!
We miss tour, tour with Octaves, Emily (akatifferz), the whole northeast, and we (obviously) greatly miss Topshelf Records (No, we don’t miss them like we aren’t on the label/broke up, just miss hanging out Duh…). Now we just have to scheme hard enough to figure out a way to get back over there before several hundred days go by.
