- Siren Nation
Fall in Portland is prime time for lady-centric festivals. You already know what's on the docket for the newly-rebranded All Jane Comedy Fest, and now Siren Nation's released the lineup for their ninth annual music and arts fest. Behold the wonder that awaits us November 4, including a delightful-sounding comedy night featuring Karinda Dobbins, Dinah Foley, and Portland's Funniest Person Amy Miller, hosted by the indomitable Caitlin Weierhauser. (Um, I'd also like to note that one of these things is a multidisciplinary KATE BUSH TRIBUTE NIGHT at Holocene, which means I will probably cry. See you there!)
