Velvet Posted June 9, 2002 Report Share Posted June 9, 2002 nero @ the Legion, Roberts Creek, British Columbia Somehow, nobody died or sustained any severe non-mental injuries on our day off and we made it to the bar by 8:30pm. Roberts Creek is small. I called the booker from the ferry and asked how long it would take to get to Roberts Creek and he asked, "are you driving?" Apparently this is the devious growth capital of Canada or something, but not many people were going out of their way to prove it. Set 'er all up, lit the Christmas lights and got the show underway. A small hyperelectric audience came out and danced like maniacs - one guy spent most of his dancefloor time upside down. Met some great people and stayed at Jimmy Dory's (the guy who puts on Evolve and other great stuff) place. Jimmy and his expecting girlfriend live in a cabin in the woods. It's as romantic and cool as you'd think - they got chickens and neighbors what drop in for tea. There's not a whole lot of extra space so we split it up outside; three in the bus and me in a VW microbus. I slept amazingly well despite the fact that I was sleeping on shards of glass from a broken windshield. One of the best sleeps I've had in weeks, in fact. In the morning Jay and I hand-fed the chickens and Michelle and Jimmy made us a great wholesome breakfast. Went into 'town' (a post office, restaurant, and variety store) and had coffee at the very relaxing restaurant, the name of which escapes me. Contented and excited for a great night to come, we bid farewell to Jimmy until we see him again in August and we hopped the ferry back to Horseshoe Bay.
