Quick note to the young hipsters around here... you guys are forgetting the huge scene in the 1990's. Of course, most people still think most of that music came from Seattle back then, but Oregon had a huge part in it. So long as it has nothing to do with Courtney Love, it's all good. -- davidwhunt 01:11, 7 Fed 2006 (UTC)

I made a link to the late nightclub, The Satyricon (yes, named after the movie). In its heyday, it was where one went to see & hear decent music in Portland; it was equivalent to such . Someone who knows more about Portland music than I (& that doesn't require much knowledge) needs to write that article.

However, I've never heard of "The Met"; while I was never seriously into going to the local clubs, I think I would have heard of it (I can recall places like "The Euphoria", "Earthquake Ethel's", "Urban Noize" & "Starry Night"). Could someoneverify that it actually did exist here in Puddletown? -- llywrch 04:49, 5 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]

In American Hardcore, Steven Blush wrote "Most Hardcore types who played Portland first played the local club The Met (booked by Bill Hicks) and then at the Satyricon". Tuf-Kat 05:13, May 5, 2004 (UTC)

Well, I took a look in the local phone book, & there's no listing for The Met. One of my neighbors is very much into the local music scene, so I'll ask him if he has heard of this night club. (The alternative plan is to comb thru several years of back issues of Willamette Weekly & The Rocker.) -- llywrch 02:00, 7 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]
