yeah, it is Earth--I checked-- I watched the ground last time I took a plane to San Fran... we definitely did _not_ go into space to get there. Portland is apparently accessible thru a shed out back behind Seattle's last outhouse.

For contacts, you might try to find Allon Beausoleil online or contact him... I think he might have been in this band, if not led it. Through the mid 90's, he was playing live solo - making trancey-techno with small sequencer and sh-101 and various portable kit while performing on his sitar over it. He is at least from the Eugene scene from that same time and would surely know some names... just contact the band, whoever has the masters will probably be flattered that youare looking for them... maybe they'll dump their whole catalog on cdrs for you. The only thing I found in a search was http://libweb.uoregon.edu/lsa/profiles.html I'll let you know if I dig up my tape (my friend might have an actual cd they did... i can't remember, it's been a long time...)
