Bring your earplugs for Jay Farrar if he's playing an electric set - super loud (in my experience)

They've made changes to the site layout which will definitely be for the better (in theory, hopefully in practice). http://ottawacitizen.com/entertainment/local-arts/bluesfest-congestion

Excellent press release!

Music announcement this morning: 2014 MUSIC LINE-UP 1st Line-up Announce / May 20th, 2014 KEVIN DREW (OF BROKEN SOCIAL SCENE) CONSTANTINES CHAD VANGAALEN HILOTRONS FIFTYMEN JULIE DOIRON AND THE WOODEN STARS WEAVES STEVE ADAMYK BAND OUGHT FREELOVE FENNER LOWELL EVENING HYMNS THE YIPS NEW SWEARS POSTERZ WTCHS FRESH SNOW PONY GIRL HER HARBOUR BOSVELD BLUE ANGEL DRASTIK (THUGLI) + MORE TO BE ANNOUNCED Film, food, talk, venues TBA Early bird tickets on sale now - $40 gets you access to every event. http://www.arboretumfestival.com/

And the fees don't make up any part of the ticket price - they're in addition to that. But anyways. FolkFest just said they'll credit people who got dinged multiple times on the same order so that's good to see.

I said 30.4% of the ticket price (22.50/74)*100. Your math was 23% of the total purchase price. :whistle: This is where I ask if we can both be right.

23% but the point is the same. (22.50/96.50)*100 QED

They always manage to f something up with online orders. Would love to know where all those fees go. Like, actually audit service charges across the industry.

A savings of $25!

$14 fee $3.50 order charge $5 mailing fee

Note that if you apply the $25 credit from last year to the early bird $99 tickets tomorrow morning you can attend this festival for $74 + fees.

Gaslight Anthem confirmed

Seems like Gaslight Anthem is a safer bet than The National given the clue.

Sept 10-14

They're releasing teasers like they did for Bluesfest. So far they've "announced:" Lorde Neutral Milk Hotel

Sgt Pidcock wrote the press release.

Do anything else fun? Any major life milestones?

I totally understand and respect record collecting but please, it's not "a vinyl."

Wonder if Colbert will continue in character or be himself ... (Spoiler alert)

You mean Phoorbsie

It's a good venue in town, people who saw that Zappa thing a few months ago will likely agree. Show's presented by Spectrasonic, I doubt Algonquin's student council has anything to do with it.

I asked Mill St and they confirmed they will not be at Bluesfest.

Article says Molson is a big corporate sponsor. Is this new? If so, does this mean no more Mill St? Anyone know?
