[email protected] • www.drumshopofportland.com 2 – TWO LOUIES, January 2001 THE FIRST MAYOR’S BALL Reprinted by Permission Billboard Publications — by Michael Burgess ortland, 1985. Four in the afternoon on a grey and overcast January day. Inside Pthe Glass palace, quiet. Except for un hurried crews plugging in mounds of speakers on the two main stages, the Memorial Coliseum is empty as a drum. Down on the arena floor, just about dead center, this improbably impressario, Billy Hults, nattily set out in counter-culture mufti: faded Levis with a lived-in look, a scuffed leather flight jacket that’s been through a great deal, black tai-chi slippers and a baseball cap.
