bradm Posted June 17, 2005 Report Share Posted June 17, 2005 Another great act has just signed, line up announcement should be any day now.I know it may be late in the game, but if you're looking for other acts, how about Tala? It looks like there's an opening in their schedule around Canada Day, and we got rooked out of their opening for the Brothers Past show, so it'd be 'way cool to have 'em come to Ottawa and give us a set.Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guigsy Posted June 18, 2005 Report Share Posted June 18, 2005 i love the term "rooked", and i'm glad you used it there, brad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del Posted June 18, 2005 Report Share Posted June 18, 2005 Another great act has just signed, line up announcement should be any day now. It's been three days... Where's that announcement? How you expect anyone to come all the way from Bank St. to your Canada Day Bash without that announcement is beyond me... People need time to make their plans... Seriously though, I can't wait for this party... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the door the price will be $20 but we never usually have any left at that point. So contact us at the house (236-8673)or email me at ts.turner@gmail.comAloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freeker Posted June 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 Don't worry Friendly, we'll get you in. No problem.The finalized line-up will be announced later today. So Del can have enough advance notice to get out of his pottery class in time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 MC'd with the musical styling of Velvet/MungI was talking with Velvet on Friday night, and he said that his performance was going to be a straight-up The Tummies gig, so what's this "MC'd" thing all about?Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hux Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 if you're looking for other acts, Polar opposite of the situation.I feel like a bar manager so many bands have approached us looking to play, and they're all friends, so very tough situation.(note to self: do not be a booking agent for a bar) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freeker Posted June 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 Mung will not be performing although we'd still like Velvet to MC, it's up to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hux Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 Where were y'all last night? Megs and I were boozin' at the Oak..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 Yeah, I understand completely. If somebody could get a proposed schedule out to the bands ASAP, it'd help a lot, because a band that's planning a one-hour set, but is only scheduled to get 45 minutes, may need to re-rig things. (And with all the bands, and the other entertainment [e.g., boxing match], I'm thinking the schedule's going to be really tight, especially given tear-down and set-up times.)Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimoe Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 I want to score the boxing match. I know how to score fights and I know my boxing. How can I get involved... if I can?Any real rules to the match? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freeker Posted June 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 The line up looks good damn good. The Real Gone Daddies are going to be a huge treat!!Tickets sales are over 200 so far, so if you haven't gotten your ticket yet I highly recommend that you do. It looks like we're actually going to cap it off this year so door sales might not be happening, which would be great more money in advance means more surprises for you! If you are coming from out of town and want to make arragements PM me and we'll work it out.Thanks to Snelly we will have wine as an option again this year for those who like to get drunk but don't like the kegs, we'll also be cooking up some jello shooters hopefully.:: Anyone who has anything they'd like to donate for the day would be awesome. We could use a few more sun tents, tables, chairs, canada flags, beer pitchers, toys anything... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 I've got an idea: could a "sunscreen" table be set up, with sharable bottles of sunscreen (and/or nubile wenches of virtue true to apply it )? That way, anybody who forgets to get SPiFfed up won't get burned to a crisp. Also, what's the status as to food? What will be available, and between what hours? Aloha, Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freeker Posted June 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Thanks for bringing that up Brad. Food will be provided by the great Dirienzo's. He'll show up for a couple hours and dish out sandwiches and pasta to the hungry drunken crowd for really cheap, sandwich and a pasta for 5 bucks kinda thing. Anyone who has ever had the "D" knows that it doesn't get any better than that. I'm guess it will take place around 5-6pm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Beautacious, Freeker.Is Taj going to be around this year? ISTR him being maitre'd of Santa's Magic Workshop last year, but haven't heard about him in 2005.Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
