Hi All,
So there I was a few afternoons ago, waltzing back from Spartan Grill with my falafel awesomeness when my ears were overcome with the sweet sounds from a lone saxaphone player busking in Monument Square. Who was this guy? I'll tell you who it was, it was GLEN DaCOSTA. He used to play with Bob Marley and the freakin' Wailers and here he was, playing for tips right here in our fair city. He's collaborated with local musicians Kate Schrock and Todd the Rocket and hopes the book we wrote sees the light of day. Super nice guy and an exquisite horn player. So yeah, it goes to show you never can tell who you might run into right here in Portland. Peace Out. +ALP
