“Don't get me wrong, I think "Portlandia" is really funny, and quite brilliant, but I like to be in a city where I can hang out in Powell's Bookstore most nights and go out with my friends in a liberal, relaxed atmosphere. I wish more cities were like that.” ThinkingI CanNightWishCitiesMy FriendsBrilliantAtmosphereHanging OutRelaxedBookstores Author:Johnny Marr
“I moved to Portland because Modest Mouse is there. I didn't necessarily mean to live there permanently, but I've got a really good feeling for it. The sensibility there really suits me. I happened to have grown up in Manchester, a city that was a pretty cool place to be a musician. It's close to Portland in a lot of ways.” WayMeanFeelingsCitiesHappenedMusicianMovedSuitsSensibilityModestMiceManchesterGood FeelingPortlandCool Places Author:Johnny Marr
