Please scroll down to see today's dahlia, Zorro, from Swan Island Dahlias.

In honor of today's release of The Beatles Rock Band, I give you the Portland sign and the marquee at the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall in downtown Portland.

Am I ever happy that I got myself a ticket for this one! I sat on the front row of the balcony, so tickled when one of them said we could take all of the photos we wanted! I only had my Nikon Coolpix, but I snapped away as the entire crowd sang along. Bliss!

I would've loved to have seen this and sing along. Your Coolpix did a decent job.
