    They really should satisfy the full demand for the 3 days.

    I thought the early bird prices were in effect until the 29th. Did the promo also mention "or while supplies last"?

    I made a connection between "People that complain about the name BLUESFEST" and "People that have never gone to BLUESFEST"

    Those people don't respect the power branding. Why aren't the same people complaining about it officially being called the RBC Ottawa Bluesfest or TD Ottawa Jazz Festival? Remember when it was Cisco Systems Ottawa Bluesfest? I'm just surprised Facebook isn't throwing all of their money into sponsoring music festivals and getting their name on the banners, flyers, t-shirts etc.

    A wise man once said it very well.

    It can be built it right here in your main post. as for 6am...ha! I won't be awake then.
  8. FWIW, maybe Styx and Foreigner. They showed up in a listing I saw today on an app called Timbre. Not sure where the info came from. Neither band sites show these dates, nor this tour shirt. Don't forget to check tourshirts Although probably not worth the effort in this case.
  9. That's a really nice lookin' website.
  10. Thanks for mentioning that Phorbesie. To elaborate further, the main bloggy page has a database that is not related to the forums. Members of the forum need to login here: http://www.jambands.ca/sanctuary/login.php The bloggy login at the root of www.jambands.ca is mostly for content creators, but it's open for anyone to create an account to post comments and offer wonderful spam.
  11. more accurately, they take to groupon to unload the shitiest of the seats in the house which should only ever be $22 max. ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つAMAZING༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ
  12. experiment with unblock-us for live sports. It seems to me like most of the blackout shit is covered. Otherwise, a REAL VPN will cover it..though download speeds are affected from what I've read.
  13. I'm at 2 years without subscribed cable and haven't missed a thing. I was on PVR time, so I never watched live TV. I'm not into sports or events like the Oscars/Grammies, so that part isn't a problem. For content, one needs a source, delivery device, an internet connection with lots of bandwidth (not the basics). Sources: for tv shows, EZtv.it will cover most of it. other private torrent sites like IPTorrents, TVTorrents, etc. will fill the gaps for movies, IPTorrents, RessurectTheNet, Passthepopcorn if all else fails, Piratebay's latest URL. They move every few months. here's a guide to find some public torrent trackers Fuckin' NETFLIX ($7/mth). Get an unblock-us.com account for $5/mth and have access to stream content from any locale. Connection: The speed doesn't necessarily matter, but the bandwidth allowance does. one can work with 250 GB if they don't get all the super high quality bluray rips. If you have a 1080p display and 5.1 digital system, you will do fine with each compressed format (x264, xvid, and mp4) without noticeably losing quality. Delivery: I've found AppleTV to be a great device. Having a mac, and the worst thing one has to do (which isn't bad) is to convert formats like xvid and mkv to mp4/m4v. Buuuut it pretty much requires iTunes. So if organizing video media in iTunes is agains your morals, you can try other media centers with 3rd party tools. They definitely exist. There might be some hacking (jailbreak) involved though. Dangerous road. I have tried the PS3 functionality with a windows app that takes care of streaming and I found AppleTV to be superior and stopped there. So I can't comment on Roku (apparently great) or chromecast. If I was dependant on a windows PC, I would probably avoid AppleTV and go for Roku.
  14. I'm looking at current options to change the forum engine, or magically develop a simpler engine with only the features that matter, and of course carry over the database.
  15. I'm sure George said something like "Oh Myyyy. Set phasers to STUNNING"
  16. That's a super kind offer!
  17. Someone posted that clip a couple of years ago. I can't find it.
