Tickets available for sold out Portland show (5/15/26)

Hi! I will not be able to make the show this Friday in Portland. I have 2 tickets up for grabs. Anyone want them? No cost to you, I just ask that you enjoy the show as much as I would have (and that is a lot). The first person to say they want them gets them.

Portland this Friday, May 15, 2026

Anyone familiar with the venue and the surrounding neighborhood?

Even though I've only ever seen the Whigs play in Portland over the last 30+ years, I've never set foot in The Aladdin.

I'm looking for suggestions on where to hang out pre show and either connect with other fans and/or try to meet up with some Portland friends.

Greg’s New Orleans bars

Headed down to New Orleans this weekend. Gonna hit the R bar that Greg owns. Heard he has another bar too? Anyone know the other one? TIA

Greg sounded great- wish I could also make the Cinci show- but see them if you get the chance.

I know this is an odd and old-fashioned question. I would like to send Greg and crew a handwritten note to thank them for helping me survive adolescence.

Been listening to the Whigs since I was a kid. My parents are huge fans and this tour I finally got to tag along and see Dulli live. What a great show and perfect venue!

Magic, as always. But I don't have a single friend here who is into them (or half the music I am). If anyone is looking to meet new people for live music in Philly, please shoot me a message.

I paid for and watched one of the performances, I can’t remember which one. Just wondering if a video or audio rip of either of the sets is available.

A strange moment in time that I’d like to revisit. And I think the only recorded performances of a bunch of the Random Desire tracks.

I remember seeing a link in The Congregation on FB but I’m no longer on FB.
