See you there, if you are there.

Portland Music Awards feat. Performances by Brenda + Holy Boys Danger Club + Lady Lamb the Beekeeper
Asylum
You have, we hoped, stopped voting. We have counted the votes. Now, we will dish out the awards. Yes, it’s time again for our annual celebration of local music, as the Best Music Poll results are unveiled at the Portland Music Awards at Asylum tonight. Winners in nearly two dozen categories will be announced, and apart from that we’ll have plenty of free food and performances by Brenda, Holy Boys Danger Club, and Lady Lamb the Beekeeper, along with some other very big surprises we’re keeping mum about, like perhaps the largest gathering of local performers on one stage you’ve seen in a while. Come see! Doors open at 5:30 pm at 121 Center St., and the show begins around 6:30 pm.
And the nominees for the 2010’s Award for
Portland’s Best Best Category-Defying Act
are
Arms Against A Sea
Big Blood
Confusatron
Dan Knudsen
Selbyville
Vince Nez
About Loren Coleman
Loren Coleman is one of the world’s leading cryptozoologists, some say “the” leading living cryptozoologist. Certainly, he is acknowledged as the current living American researcher and writer who has most popularized cryptozoology in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
Starting his fieldwork and investigations in 1960, after traveling and trekking extensively in pursuit of cryptozoological mysteries, Coleman began writing to share his experiences in 1969. An honorary member of Ivan T. Sanderson’s Society for the Investigation of the Unexplained in the 1970s, Coleman has been bestowed with similar honorary memberships of the North Idaho College Cryptozoology Club in 1983, and in subsequent years, that of the British Columbia Scientific Cryptozoology Club, CryptoSafari International, and other international organizations. He was also a Life Member and Benefactor of the International Society of Cryptozoology (now-defunct).
Loren Coleman’s daily blog, as a member of the Cryptomundo Team, served as an ongoing avenue of communication for the ever-growing body of cryptozoo news from 2005 through 2013. He returned as an infrequent contributor beginning Halloween week of 2015.
Coleman is the founder in 2003, and current director of the International Cryptozoology Museum in Portland, Maine.
