Doubleplusgood on The Penny Jam
Apr 27th
The Penny Jam cranks out another kickin’ local vid.
Electronic-Pop duo DoublePlusGood performs “Something Else” in episode 29 of the Penny Jam. Our host was Joe Mansfield of engraveyourtech.com in top floor of the Towne Storage Building, overlooking the Burnside Bridge, the river, and downtown Portland.
Check out their site for iPod downloads of the vid.
Sonnyboo
Apr 27th
I think its an odd name too. However, while surfing youtube I found sonnyboo.com. This site offers free downloads of music and most interesting is their standard forms they offer for free. They have your standard Non Disclosures forms, appearance release, location release, all the things a filmmaker should be having people sign.

It doesn’t matter how David met July, or whether they live happily ever after; they set out for adventure and find the simplest of pleasures in being an armed-and-dangerous duo.

Time: 10:00pm – 11:00pm
Place: Ford Theater, Willamette University, Salem, Oregon, USA
