he'd be playing the big outdoor stage, from what i surmised. could be wrong though for sure. i don't think the full list was published, as the citizen article i read only showed about 5 artists, while the real list is about 70 bands long

Nope, sorry. Once I stopped looking at the sheet of paper I went back to being in the dark, although with some vague memories of some of the words written on said paper.... I am working on getting the list though... Stay tuned. (No promises)

Lidstrom had ball surgery and came back to play http://www.thestar.com/Sports/Hockey/article/652689

i thought this thread was going to go into penthouse letter territory after reading the title

The website says the lineup will be released June 24, which is stupid because I saw the list yesterday. It's done. Maybe there are some scheduling and ticketing issues to deal with but I saw with my own two eyes a giant list of artists, in a Government of Canada press-release folder.... I imagine everyone who went to the press conference got one, so why hasn't someone released it? Why wait? Increase the hype now. Geez.

The Black Keys are playing Bluesfest on July 8th, according to their website. It's not on the Bluesfest website yet but that's a sweet score.

there's jazzfest there's bluesfest there's folkfest there's rancid / rise against this friday there's acdc and metallica and green day and britney and charley pride and bachman-cummings etc there's propaghandi next week there's MSTRKRFT there's a lot.

Nice little story here

i remembered another of the big names: Lee Perry

having never been to the ale house, i'd say 100% the Metropolis is a better venue.

jay are you talking hardware or software? there is new hardware (3G S) which will run the new software (3.0). and as I understand it the 3G iphones will run the 3.0 software but there are a few limitations due to the differences in hardware or something between 3G S and 3G? i dunno. my cellphone is old school.

Proclaimers George Clinton Matt Mays RJD2 Kid Koala Arrested Development i'm forgetting tons of names, my apologies. The press release should be online soon I imagine... Tons of local bands, which is nice to see.

The lineup for this Blues in the Market things is awesome! I can't find the lineup online but just read the press release at the friendly neighbourhood record store... Nicely done. Now, to see what the schedule is. Hope there isn't any / much overlap with the festival proper. Last thing I want to do is commute between Lebreton and the Market...

it 'could' be the thing i posted above. jesus

ad could not be found. Please check the name and try again.

Jesus H that was awesome more to come I'll write faster if someone can post the link to the Friday Phish sbd. I can't find it here / didn't look all that hard. Found Sunday though.

happy birthday sean, see you in a few days

jesus, this is a real series now.

Yo, for those of you heading to Bonnaroo - Bonnie Prince Billy is playing on Wednesday night in a tiny-ish indie movie theatre / performance space in Nashville. There are still tickets available, and they are GA for $15. yes, $15. I think the capacity of the venue is around 300. Wikipedia Belcourt Theater Website Venue Website - Has anyone been here before? I am so pumped for this show!

Even if I take out a lot of bands I don't like or don't yet know, it's still a kickass lineup. Wow. Nice work Julie and Paul! 100 DOLLARS ATTACK IN BLACK BAIRD BROTHERS BA JOHNSTON BURNING HELL CLUES DESTROYER DOG DAY D’URBERVILLES ERIC'S TRIP JON MCKIEL JULIE DOIRON JULIE FADER LADYHAWK LAURA BOREALIS LONNIE JAMES THE MAGIC MOUNT EERIE OLD MAN LUEDECKE RICK WHITE SHAPES & SIZES SHOTGUN JIMMIE SNAILHOUSE TIMBER TIMBRE WOMEN WOOLLY LEAVES

That's a ridiculous lineup. By far the best lineup for Canadian festivals this summer, as far as my tastes go. Too bad I can't make it. Grr....

I shall be there. Look for my Bonnaroo preview to grace the fine pages of Jambands.ca in the very near future.

if you drop off the application at your MP's office it goes in a different and faster queue, plus you don't have to pay for postage.
