    Lyle Divinsky reaches to slap hands with Emanuel Washington of the band Sophistafunk, as Divinsky's band, The Motet, performs sound checks at Portland House of Music. “I’ve never met anyone in (the Portland scene) who is competitive in a negative way," said Divinsky. "We’re not playing just because it’s fun and we’re looking for a party. We all care deeply and want to share that feeling. I think there’s a special energy in Portland.”
