 Ya pretty much everything fun to do here requires both knees (other than drinking of course). I guess you could go to Ski Bowl and go bungee jumping (thats what I did on my 16th) and hang out in Hood River for a bit and watch windsurfers.

Sorry to hear you are injured.  you can still enjoy some of portland's cooler area's though...

1) Japanese Garden - pretty much one of the better gardens in the States
2) Powell's Books - HUGE, any literature you might want about any topic.
3) Waterfront - take a nice stroll
4) Hawthorne - This is one of my favorite districts in Portland.  Head shops, organic stores, hippie things, good vibes and food.  Its on the East side

there is always good music there will def be some people rollin through...

1) Sunday, June 22:  Snoop Dogg and Warren G at the Roseland theatre 7 PM All ages

Well it looks like that is the only legit show rolling through. 
Hope this helps a little bit

I'M GOING TO PORTLAND AGAIN!

my sister moved like 40 min away form hood so I'll be going often there hopefully, I was wondering if there was anything sick going on next week ( 1st week of September) Looking forward to skiing there too, I think hood is gonna just be open on weekends from now on but not sure. anyone know anything about skiing/party scene near troutdale.

thanks +++ karma for good info.

Nothing ever happening in Troutdale/Gresham. Check out Musicfest NW in Portland though, it going on from Sep. 3-6 and its a 3 day period where all the local bands and other bands come out and play at different bars and dance halls. I think a lot of the shows are all-ages, so it shouldn't be a problem if you are underage (check for yourself though, cause im not positive on this).

go google Musicfest NW and look at the schedule. Hope you have a good visit.
