Why Portland Rocks:

The MezzJelly Blues Weekend travels to a new state every year. But why Portland, Oregon for 2007?

"The spotlight is on Portland...a major emerging player in roots-musicianship. It's about dancing, and community."

Portland isn't just another scene -- it has a bustling dance community with a long-entrenced passion that is infectious.

Plus, the city doesn't suck: "Once known as America's best kept secret, Portland is now one of the [USA] top locales. Money magazine recently ranked Portland #2 among Big Cities in which to live -- the personality of a small community and the activities and vitality of a large city." (full article)
