  1. Prix Fix is perfect. They also make a nice steak and frites (for those carnivores out there )
  2. Man, I'd suggest eating there! It's like dinner theater. You get a good table, enjoy some REALLY good food (that is well worth the price) and then sit back and enjoy your bevvies while the band plays Also, no problem leaving the venue, crossing the street and making use of the large parking lot for partaking in smoking activities (since smoking isn't allowed inside). Love that place. Who are you going to see? I'm probably going to get there for one of the Maria Muldaur gigs next month.
  3. That's very true. However, are you trying to say that in Hip Hop community all the artists have carte blanche when it comes to what they say, do, write, perform? Give me a break. If most aren't quelled by their labels, they will be through an act of violence justified through revenge for "disrespecting" one another.
  4. Another one bites the dust; http://www.soulshine.ca/news/newsarticle.php?nid=4373 Queen Get Their Own Ben & Jerry’s Flavour Published: 2007-04-13 To be honoured by Ben & Jerry's would be nothing short of delicious. Rock band, Queen is about to be commemorated by a flavor quite their own. Queen aren't the first honorees of having an ice cream flavour named after themselves, previously there have been flavours such as, "Phish Food" honouring Phish, "Cherry Garcia" honoring the Grateful Dead's Jerry Garcia and now there is "Bohemian Raspberry" honouring Queen. Guitarist Brian May seemed to be excited about the new venture when he told NME, "It's Queentastic! Rhapsolicious! So cool it's not funny! But only if the next one is 'We Will Chock You'!" Proceeds raised by the ice cream will be donated to Mercury Phoenix Trust, to fight the battle against AIDS.
  5. 208. Songs you always wanted to hear Phish cover but they never did. 1. Guns N' Roses - Paradise City 2. Wings - Band on the Run 3. The Outlaws - Green Grass And High Tides 4. Dylan - Sara 5. John Lennon - Cold Turkey 6. Genesis - the Musical Box 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12.
  6. Wild! http://www.usdoj.gov/dea/pubs/states/newsrel/seattle011906.html This unique setup resulted in a 15 year sentence for Chad Robert Latham. Tacoma Man Gets 15 Years in Prison for Very Sophisticated Marijuana Grow Operation Men Built "Ferris Wheel" like contraptions to cultivate more than 1,000 plants JAN 19--CHAD ROBERT LATHAM, 30, of Tacoma, Washington was sentenced today to 15 years in prison and five years of supervised release for Conspiracy to Manufacture Marijuana and Manufacturing Marijuana. At sentencing U.S. District Judge Ronald B. Leighton noted that LATHAM had two prior state convictions for growing marijuana. According to the plea agreement, LATHAM designed eight machines out of aluminum that looked like ferris wheels. Each machine held 24 rows of plants with eight plants in each row for a total of 192 plants per machine. The plants would rotate around the machine, passing by grow lights, dipping into a hydroponic grow solution at the bottom or passing under a hydroponic grow solution spray at the top. In 2003-2004, the grow operation was located in a garage in rural Pierce County in McKenna, Washington. A co-conspirator, DANIEL IRWIN, lived on the property and hung a deteriorating deer carcase near the door to the building so that the smell of the rotting deer would mask the smell of marijuana. In March of 2004, someone discovered the grow operation and LATHAM determined it needed to be moved. In the middle of the night on March 8, 2004, LATHAM and others attempted to move the operation to a warehouse at S. Clement Street in Tacoma. Neighbors heard what they thought was suspicious activity in the alley and called Tacoma Police. LATHAM was arrested and 2,083 marijuana plants were seized. The case was investigated by the DEA/ TNET Task Force comprised of DEA agents and local law enforcement officers from Tacoma Police, Pierce County Sheriff’s Office, Washington State Patrol, Washington State Department of Corrections, Bonney Lake Police and Auburn Police Department. The case was prosecuted by Special Assistant United States Attorney Douglas J. Hill. Hill is a Deputy Pierce County Prosecutor who is specially designated to handle drug cases in Federal Court.
  7. If i didn't have this damn oxygen mask on i'd come over there and slap you with my colostomy bag!
  8. I LOVE rock and roll. This video brought a big smile while I've been eating my lunch. The cats know how to ROCK. Watch what they do at the end ... what a riot. These kids are allright The average age of The Zimmers is 78. Lead singer Alf Carretta is 90 years old! Other band members are 99 and 100 years old. The single will be released on May 14th, with proceeds going to Age Concern, an advocacy organization in England.
  9. Now THAT would have been awesome and would have really impressed me. However, since she didn't stand up at all, I give her and F for that interview
  10. Good article AD. It sums up the situation very succinctly. I totally think that they need to pull in another goalie to be the Number 1 and light a fire under Raycroft to earn a spot or get the hell out (get Joseph at least!) I still think Sundin has a lot of value. However, they still need quality wingers for him to play with. Antropov and Poni are not them (and I hope they both get traded). Sundin should sacrifice and take a hit on his salary to allow them to bring in more talent (shit, he can make up for it with some side deal). You know what I think of McOverpaid, but he just won't go away (maybe I should start referring to him as Luke McOverpaid ). Keep Maurice on as head coach, but unload a bunch of other crap (namely anything over 30 on the team , aside from Sundin on a cut salary). MLSE will make money hand over foot no matter what. Do something exciting in the off season. I'd love to see a big shake-up Coyote-style .
  11. As KungLukeZero would say: you just don't understand SATIRE!!! :grin:
  12. Come on Chameleon ... get one in there with "TEN" in the title

  14. if she was such a little rebel I would have expected her to fight back a little and toss some jabs at the wanker. She didn't, so he had free reign. The question about a possible perfume in the future was brilliant. He was jabbing her by implying she was turning into some sort of diva along the lines of Celine, Cher, Etc. who all end up with their own perfumes (something a Sk8er girl would frown upon ) It just showed how she's a sellout
  15. I think he played her after she responded with completely pathetic answers off the top. He was probably fed up with having to interview lifeless "artists".
  16. I don't know how she rides her skateboard with those high-heels on!
  17. Watch this Brit interviewer show how much of an airhead Avril is. She is completely useless (having to watch some of her recent CBC special also showed she has limited talent ... especially live since she had to have a lot of overdubbing!)
  18. you can get a single beside my tix right now . ADULT GTCL H 129 $59.50 I can hold it for 5 minutes right now
  19. Didn't know that. Thanks. I'll have to hear a couple more of them. I was hoping KungLukeZero might chime in with "8 Mile"
  20. Isn't that Tommy Tutone????? Fun trivia for that number that everyone knows: In films and television * In the episode of Family Guy, "Road to Rhode Island," when Stewie is trying to reach Lois, the first number he dials is 867-5309. He then says, "Oh, wait, that's not it. Damn you, Tommy Tutone!" * In 2004, the song was featured in a TV commercial for Cingular Wireless, which promoted the company's number portability service. Many telephone carriers have refused to assign this number since the advent of this song but it is still valid in some areas. * On the American show Hit Me Baby One More Time, Tommy Tutone reunited for one night and sang the song for a chance to win money for charity. * In a first-season episode of the television show Cheers, 867-5309 is given as Diane Chambers' phone number in a bit of men's room graffiti. * In an episode of The Simpsons, 867-5309 appears on the church billboard. * In the opener of CNN's The Situation Room, the number 8675309 can be found at the bottom right of the frame in one of the boxes that display otherwise meaningless numbers. The number can be seen towards the end of the opener. * (801) 867-5309 is used as a fictionalized number in The Singles Ward, The R.M. and Sons of Provo. * In an August, 2006 episode of The Colbert Report, a satirical news show on Comedy Central, a fake mugshot of Tom DeLay featured 8675309 as his prisoner ID number. * The stardate in the opening narration of Duck Dodgers s3e02 "Just The Two Of Us" is 86.75.309 * 8675309 was given as Kyle Reese's serial number in the original film treatment for The Terminator. * In Freddy Got Fingered, Betty's phone number that she gives to Gord is 867-5309. * The song is played in a TV commercial for the chocolate bar Milky Way. It shows a man having difficulty singing the song because he is eating a Milky Way. * In the show My Gym Partner's a Monkey in the episode The Spiffanos it is implied that Bull Sharkowski's locker number is 8675309. * In the 1984 film "CHUD", a little girl's uncle dials 867-5309 before getting eaten by a CHUD.
  21. Those pics I posted at the beginning are of the Outdoor Amphitheatre. WELL, I just realized that is NOT where they are performing. They are at the Mainstage Theatre. Indoor/Outdoor deal. Cool. Here's some shots: MAINSTAGE THEATER The Artpark Mainstage Theater comfortably provides indoor seating for up to 2,400 people and houses one of the largest stages in New York State. In addition, the theater's rear gates open to allow 2,000 people to view the stage from the lawn area. This professional theater is fitted with advanced sound and lighting capabilities, ideally suited for such events as conventions, award ceremonies, corporate training, concerts, recitals and graduations.
  22. LOL ... maybe. I'll see what the wife wants to do when I let her know we got tix
