CORVALLIS OR— When Arcweld formed nearly 20 years ago in the final throes of the 1980s, they had a modest agenda. “Basically our goal was to play for a party,” recalls guitarist and vocalist Bert Schoenfeld. Along with drummer Margaret McNamara, he created Arcweld in a series of practice sessions in a friend’s basement.
