Tualafest 2001. Sounds like a bad joke huh? Amazingly there was a pretty good cross section of the Portland punk and hardcore scene represented here today and all for free. Bands played on a makeshift stage in the middle of a basketball court while other people skated on the rather tiny but kind of cool Tualatin skatepark. It was very sunny, very hot and very un-shaded for bands and fans alike. Jack from Fistfull said it best when he commented about the stage “burning through the soles of his shoes.” Of course Dave had the wonderful commentary on stage of “it sucks when you’re fat and it’s hot outside.” Lovely. Despite the rather wimpy PA and nagging technical difficulties for almost every band it was still a pretty decent show.
