Michael Hurley Michael Hurleyey Tour      
       
 



JUNE 2010, LAURELTHIRST PUBLIC HOUSE PORTLAND, OR
"Michael Hurley played every Wednesday at 6pm at a bar across the street from my house all month in June. I felt like the luckiest person under the sky and was sincerely sad when the month ended. It was a great weekly ritual while it lasted. Made some trippy new friends in the neighborhood, hell, even got teary once or twice. He's been ripping for ages. I recommend "ANCESTRAL SWAMP". Incredible name".
Shelby Menzel
