This is the final 2008 Pampelmoose edition of the New Music Hour on Portland’s 94.7FM. Tonight will be the last show of the year and it’s time to take stock of all the great music that I’ve been able to play from Portland’s vibrant music scene. I have 14 songs tonight from some of Portland’s finest. They are by no means ranked in any order, nor are they songs necessarily from ‘08 releases, just a selection from many songs that I could have played. The choice was difficult but having room for only 14 bands forced my hand. To those that didn’t make the list be assured that in ‘09 you will be played on the show and maybe the list will be longer next year and I can accommodate more bands…just keep the great music coming.
