Shit, they've been on a downward spiral for almost a complete year now! I am amazed that they haven't shown any signs of turning it around at all. They really do need a serious shake-up.

I'd like to, but probably not. Well, maybe if I win free tix We'll see ... Same goes for the Aussi PF show.

As far as tribute bands go, these guys are fucking awesome! Hey, free tix?

A link to win tix to this guy. I've seen a lot written about him lately. He's been at a bunch of festys over the last couple of years. http://www.nowtoronto.com/cgi-bin/EH/EventHandler.cgi?Actn=Entry_Form&Fnm=matisyahu&User_ID=contests WIN a pair of tickets to see Matisyahu!

As i was reading this post, some Django started to play on my speakers! Spooky ... but HAPPY Django Reinhardt & Le Quartet du Hot Club de France "Shine" 1936

Audio??? Sweet! Thanks in advance ...

GREAT gig last night. After catching the first of 2 XMas concert gigs at my kids' school, i was able to bolt in to town and got to the show at 10:45. I hadn't missed too much, but for the next 90mins I was treated to a really fun band and some great performances. Grace sure has a stage presence. She's a damn good keyboardist too and really gets into her playing. I don't know all of her songs by name, but I recall "Treat Me Right" being a standout. Highlight for me? A fucking KICKASS, longggg version of Neil Young's DOWN BY THE RIVER. Grace rocks!! I'll be catching them on future visits to the region for sure. Thanks again for the ticket jambands.ca!!

Deepest sympathies.

Hello, Ray? You there, Ray? it's Sean ... James Duthie The Ottawa Citizen Saturday, December 06, 2008 And now the next episode in the bizarro reality show that is Sean Avery: Image Rehabilitation. (Also known as Career Salvation.) What other choice is there? The Dallas Stars don't want him back. No one will trade for him (except Tampa Bay maybe -- it takes everybody!) Even the minor-league teams Dallas would love to send him to are turning their backs. (How far have you fallen when the Manitoba Moose want no part of you?) So the only option left is self re-invention. If Avery were a rock or movie star (which he apparently believes he is), the next move would be obvious: Check into some faux-rehab clinic (Foot-In-Mouth Addiction?), then do Oprah, People magazine and pronounce yourself a changed man. Sadly, Oprah has never heard of hockey, and People has Britney booked for the next six covers. So with nowhere else to turn, a desperate Avery calls the one guy who might be able to help him out: Somewhere in Russia, a cellphone rings. Ray Emery: "Ugghh ... Uh ... What the ... Where am I ... Uhh ... Hel ... lo?'' Avery: "Oh, geez, sounds like I woke you up. Sorry, man. Is it the middle of the night in Russia?'' Ray (rolls over and looks at clock): "Nah, it's noon. Oh, crap, did I miss practice?!? Wait ... oh, ya ... day off ... Phewww. Hey, who is this, anyway?'' Avery: "It's Sean.'' Emery: "Shean Donovan! Great to hear from a Sen! I knew one of you would call me eventually! It only took ... seven months. Wassup!?! You guys miss me, don'tcha? I bet Alex Auld's suits are weak, right? No way that dude could pull off a top hat!" Avery: "No ... no. It's Sean AVERY! But you're right about the suits. I interned at Vogue, Ray. They even talk about your duds there.'' Emery: "Oh, that Sean Avery! Good to hear from you. How your Rangers doing?" Avery: "Uhh ... yeah ... I actually signed with Dallas last summer.'' Emery: "Oh ... sorry. I don't get much NHL news over here. How's Melrose doin' in Tampa, by the way? He's one cool cat. He'll do really well there. Anyway, Dallas, eh? Good for you! Must be nice to get out of that media spotlight in NYC. You know, somewhere you can keep a nice, low profile, stay out of trouble." Avery: "Uhh, yeah, well about that ... .'' Emery: "Oh-oh. What happened? You wave your stick in front of a goalie again to screen him? I thought that was hilarious, dude! Though just to be clear, I would have speared you in the groin." Avery: "Nah, it wasn't that. I just made a little joke ... tried to get under Phaneuf's skin ... it didn't quite get the reaction I was hoping for.'' Emery: "That's all?'' Avery: "Basically. Oh, there were a couple of other little things. I ripped the NHL and most of its stars. I didn't really talk to anyone all year in the dressing room. I didn't listen to my coaches. And I pretty much turned into the worst free agent signing in history. But that's about it. And now get this! For some bizarre reason, my teammates don't want me back! And nobody in the league will trade for me, either.'' Emery: "Been there.'' Avery: "Yeah, that's why I called. What did you learn from your ... umm ... problems in Ottawa?" Emery: "Well, let's see. I learned that I need an alarm clock with an amplifier. And I learned that there are some bad freakin' drivers in that city, dude! How hard is it to pull over when a Hummer's coming up you're freakin' ... " Avery (interrupting): "No, no ... I mean what did you learn about yourself? Because I hear you're playing great in Russia and behaving, and that you'll probably be back in the NHL soon.'' Emery: "Oh. Wow. Tough one. I really just came here for the hot Russian swimsuit models and the fur coats. They have some sick furs here, bro!'' Avery: "Really? I'm in! You should see the shades I wore at my hearing with Bettman! P-I-M-P, baby!" Emery: "Sweet! Well, maybe you should come here. Trust me, one trouble-free season in Russia and no one will remember any of the bad stuff you did before.'' Avery (excited): "Really, no one?" Emery: "OK, Phaneuf might."
