The final show will be Friday, Nov. 30, at Diablo's & The Downtown Lounge. The Emerald City Roller Girls and four eclectic bands; The TouchyFeeliacs, The Eugene Drama Kings, Mood Area 52 and Telepathic Dumpster will conclude the Grrrlz Rock Concert Series.
"I love that it brings women together and I'd like to think that it's helping or contributing to this strengthening of community for women. It makes me feel good that women performers through Grrrlz Rock are meeting each other and building relationships, and that strengthens the whole scene altogether," Ingram said.
Most of the shows cost $6 or free with a VIP pass. The Oregon Woman's Comedy Festival costs $40, or $20 with a VIP pass. VIP passes can be purchased for $30 at Shag Boutique on Willamette Street in Eugene.
All proceeds go towards producing next year's event.
Grrrlz Rock is put together with the help of 20 volunteers from the community and interns from LCC and University of Oregon.
