What we say
Doug Fir is a hot spot for upcoming indie bands with a mix of straights and queers.
Imagine your granny's cabin suddenly became the "it" bar in town, and you've conjured up the Doug Fir. The food is good ole diner with a hearty Northwestern twist and the sound system was built for loud guitars. It's not all queer all the time, but it is full of young Portlandites more likely to judge you for your fashion sense than your sexual preference.

This is the one lesbian event to not be missed in PDX. It is the one time where everyone is in the mood to party and lower thier defenses. The upstairs rooms are busy. The music is better than I have ever experienced at a lesbian event. The vibe is great. This is a beautiful, well organized and classy event. Mel is an awesome vj/dj and it is largly because of her that this event came together. I wish that PDX's queer women with all of thier various identies could party like this all the time, but then the event shuts and disapears like a mirage.
I also caught Bitch and Ferron playing at the Doug Fir. However, after the event, feminist lesbians vaporized. Never to be seen or heard from again.
So, what do you say?
