[ROCK FOR A CAUSE] HOME stands for “Help Offset Medical Expenses,” and right now Duane Jarvis needs some major help to sort out medical expenses from his recent shitty cancer diagnosis and treatment. Though he eventually left Portland for Nashville (where he recorded with fellas like Frank Black, Dwight Yoakam and John Prine), locals should remember how Jarvis and his bro Kevin rocked Portland back in the day with their group the Odds. I’ll gladly help out Jarvis at the Wonder, out of charity or just pure selfishness: I’ll use any excuse to go see Frank Black. Richmond Fontaine frontman Willy Vlautin and old-school Portland New Wave outfit Billy Rancher’s Unreal Gods provide support.
