Photos: Be Your Own Pet [Portland, OR; 03/07/08]
Photos by Nilina Mason-CampbellSelf-domestication advocates Be Your Own Pet have been out there encouraging the kids to Get Awkward, as you know. Those kids can take the lesson home beginning March 18 in North America (via Ecstatic Peace/Universal) and March 17 in the UK (via XL).
This past weekend found the rabble-rousing quartet in fine form at Portland, Oregon's Doug Fir Lounge. They head to SXSW tomorrow, then see what kind of trouble they can stir up in Europe over the weeks beyond. Quite a few new dates have entered BYOP's itinerary since our last dispatch, so have a look below.
