With ticket prices for this laser light show starting at $35, you'd expect the pioneering Moog magician Mort Garson to be there in the flesh. Sadly, he died back in 2008, but hear me out—this trippy, one-of-a-kind spectacular is worth the bucks. Portland-based musicians Elrond and Pulse Emitter will play a live set of functional yet whimsical tunes from Garson's Mother Earth's Plantasia (an album that helps your plants grow) and Journey to the Moon and Beyond (a soundtrack to the 1969 moon landing). While the artists turn their shiny knobs, your mind will be melted by stunning laser projections that match the music.
