There was a bar named Crackers2000? That's perfect.

Bachman sitting in with the Sadies tonight in Toronto too.

It was just Randy talking endlessly about some dinner he had with Rod Stewart in 1967, all while strumming annoying chords on his acoustic guitar.

3rd show will be announced tomorrow (Thursday), tickets on sale Monday.

Did you know Jeff Ament's new side-project is playing tomorrow night at Algonquin College?

More info here.

Whalesbone is moving in and are continuing the tradition of live music, though at a slower pace.

"@TheWhalesbone: @leftydammit there will definately be an affiliation - the Elmdale will be similar but different"

"Nathalie Myles: Live Music will continue, this is not becoming a Whalesbone, the owners of the Whalesbone bought the business an they're adding a kitchen! The Elmdale will live on!!!!"

After reading that article, it's obvious why the Isles are moving. There will be an immediate bump in attendance - a lot of people will take in a hockey game just to see the new building.

The 'new' building will have been in operation for 3 years at that point.

Camp Radio tonight at Zaphods!

I wonder if the promo company found a song from 20 years ago from a band they hadn't heard of and thought they could sneak it by without asking? Doesn't seem too plausible given google and all, but there are plenty of dumb people out there.

People have posted this news on the Hip's Facebook so they are aware of it now (in case it was done without their knowledge)

Odd that there's no Ottawa, Vancouver, Calgary or Montreal dates. Nothing at all in Newfoundland or Quebec. Hmm.

I have internet through CIA.com. It's superfast DSL (or cable, your choice), there's no bandwidth limit nor throttling. It also comes with a free VoIP phone line with al the features you need, emails your voicemail to you, call waiting, call display, free long distance to most places in canada and 5 cents per minute to places that aren't free. International calls are cheap too but that's what Skype is for. Also comes with a calling card so you can get these rates from any phone. This plan runs me $50 / month plus $10 / month for renting the modem and VoIP adapter.

Fantastic band but I'm not going to that show. Wish they'd come to my town.

Anyone know of any cleanup utilities for a Mac? Something like CCCleaner for PC but for Mac. Gets rid of extraneous files, checks for errors, etc. Stuff like that.

Anyone?

Thanks

Wouldn't hurt to uplug your computer from the internet until you get it back under your control.

ended up getting a 32gb model. it's been activated for all of 15 minutes now but so far so good (except for the piss-poor maps)

I'm picking mine up tomorrow. 16gb for $179, plus I'm pretty sure I can convince them to not charge me the $35 admin fee.

Comedy Bang Bang

Earwolf Presents - (they did the Phish podcasts a while back that are hilarious - Harris Wittels attempts to get Scott Aukerman to like or at least not dislike Phish)

All Songs Considered - sometimes cheesy but sometimes really good

NPR Planet Money - it's about money and economics but not dry. short 15-20 minute episodes from all over the place. interesting stuff presented well.

Stop Podcasting Yourself - comedy from Vancouver

Memory Palace

CBC Radio 3

And to you, good sir

What are the repercussions?

I don't know' date=' but I'm sure he'll claim this is a symbol for frivolous lawsuits and will drum up an excuse, so as to avoid a gong show of a trial.[/quote']

It seems any Tom can get snared by these traps. I hope he can beat this rap, kick out the charges and get back rolling! Crash the courtroom and ride this out Mickey!

What are the repercussions?

City gyms (of which Plant Bath is one) are good value and offer plenty of services. You can choose your membership level and your membership is valid at multiple facilities. Some have pools, arenas, classes, squash, curling etc included in price.

There are two YMCA locations downtown, although the Queen St. location has a 'premium' designation or something like that.

Goodlife is very overrated IMHO.

There are download links (parts 1 and 2) at the bottom of the page. No idea if they work.

Montreal tickets are through Evenko

Yeah, I really like this idea. Will be interesting to see it play out.
