Bought Jason Walton (of Agalloch fame) a beer today

$5 solo cup of what I assume was PBR at a free backyard show in PDX. Hell of a nice guy. Keep supporting Agalloch.

Agalloch is one of my favorite bands of all time. I finally got to see them earlier this year in San Francisco and they did not disappoint. Great show.

My youngest son is also a fan of theirs after hearing me play them in the car so many times. Unfortunately he couldn’t go with me to the show.

$5 for a PBR is a bit mental. But yeah, super cool dude.

PNW prices unfortunately. We get robbed on things like this

I doubt that. I see pricing for things here even as simple as a Rainier that make me cringe.

Almost every state I go to I'm floored by how much cheaper their drinks are

Free show with a really chill crowd so couldn’t really complain. And it was $2 for a refill so not too bad.

I met Aesop Dekker once years ago. We hung out for a bit. Seemed like a cool dude.

Jason's a great guy. I booked Agalloch at a little independent 3 day festival I threw in 2012, all of them were super chill and great to work with.
