An in-depth account of one of the most important cultural epicenters in Pacific Northwest history, X-RAY VISIONS tells the story of Portland"s X-Ray Cafe, a unique, all-ages nightclub that hosted bands like Green Day, Crash Worship, Nation of Ulysses, Neurosis, Smegma, Poison Idea, Everclear, and virtually every touring act from 1989 to 1994. The X-Ray put Portland on the map as THE epicenter for alternative arts and weird culture. With its "anything goes" aesthetic, a punk band, a circus act, toddlers banging on things, language classes, 25 cent advice sessions, and a spanking evangelist might appear on a single night"s bill.
