As the assistant project leader of the Salmonid Life Cycle Monitoring Project, Derek Wiley has spent the past decade researching salmon and steelhead and making estimates about their abun- dance and survival rates on the northern Oregon coast, often taking his GoPro cam- era into the field with him to capture fish behavior and spawning. On Wednesday, Feb. 15, join Wiley at the Seaside Public Library for the sec- ond of this year’s free Lis- tening to the Land presen- tations focused on wildlife, “Life in the River.” Wiley will provide a screening of his films documenting the freshwater life of native salmon in the region. “Journey’s End” is an 18-minute video captur- ing underwater behavior and spawning of wild chum salmon, Chinook salmon, coho salmon, and Pacific lamprey in several rivers on the North Oregon Coast.

On the Rocks to perform in Clatskanie CLATAKANIE — As part of its 28th Performing Arts Series, the Clatskanie Arts Commission will present the University of Oregon’s male a cappella group On the Rocks in concert at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Feb. 10 at Clatskanie’s Birkenfeld Theatre, located at 75 S. Nehalem St. On The Rocks was founded in 1999 by Leo DaSilva and Peter Hollens when they attended the University of Oregon. The group established itself through five albums, a viral video of Lady Gaga’s “Bad Romance,” and appearances on NBC’s “The Sing Off.” Now they are a new group of 12 living up to their past of fame and notoriety. You may ask, “Why don’t you sing Lady Gaga?” or “Where are the guys from the ‘Sing Off’?” Those singers have grad- uated — but talent never graduates. Talent built this group from a time before the boom of reality TV shows and viral videos. Know this: Every time On the Rocks performs, the group steps on stage with the vigor of every man who has ever sung in On the Rocks. Tickets cost $18 for adults, $16 for seniors and $14 for children age 12 and under. Tickets are available at Hump’s Restaurant in Clatskanie, by calling Elsa at 503-728-3403 and at the ticket booth that opens at 7 p.m. the night of the performance. Only cash or check will be accepted. The theater holds 165 audience members, so be sure you get your tickets soon. Also, mark your calendar for Feb. 24, for the resched- uled performance of South American group Condor.
