I'm originally from Waldoboro (graduated Medomak Valley in '02), and went to college in Portland (USM). I moved down here to New York a little less than 2 years ago now. I miss it! Portland is such a fun city, and the midcoast region is just gahgous 
I spent a lot of time in Rockland/Rockport in my youth: I was born at Penn Bay, took my license test there, yearly family trips to Vinalhaven, and of course that's where the nearest Wal*Mart was  ... I went there year ago or so for the first time and years and couldn't believe how the strip had changed. You guys got a Home Depot!? Ridiculous...
It appears your a relative newcomer around here: welcome to TalkBass |

Off to play!
PbassDciple, OUT!

Hey all!
Good to know there are other TBers here from my adopted state of Maine.
I'll be playing the Portland Lobster Company (in the old port)(weather permitting) with my band Rizing Tide on Tuesday August 26 from 6-9:30
Stop by, say hi and enjoy a cold "pop"
Cheers |

Pax,
Paddy | Rock-on.
I'm not from Maine, but I used to live in Rockland a few years back (6 or 7 to be exact), right across from the high school on Thomaston St. I used to play with some older guys in a group called "Blue Collar Band". I loved it up there. I stumbled home many a late night from the Time Out Pub. Good times. |

She has family there so I've visited there numerous times throughout the years. Compared to So Cal it's a whole different world, but I love it there. |

Great up here in the summer, except for the salt-infused perma-fog that we've had from about mid-June through today. I play a lot of weddings and outdoor functions right on the water and I have to spray my equipment down with WD-40 on a weekly basis to keep everything from rusting solid. Whoopee!

I still go back a couple times a year, don't think I'll ever move back but I do miss the seafood. |
