Yeah, dont get me wrong - it may not have been my favorite HORDE line up but I still went three times and enjoyed them all (I also went to UofT from 89-93ish and got plastered at a few BNL shows and had a good time).

Actually the point im trying to bring up is i'd love to get my hands on the Ben Harper from that show if you got it.

Hey Secondtube, the Further show you are referring to may actually be HORDE tour (Horizons of Rock Developing Everywhere). I also think the year on that show is 98. It was kinda like Blues Travellers summer travelling festival and in 98 it featured Harper, BNL, and Blues Traveller)

I saw HORDE a bunch of times and 98 definately was the weakest one and not surprisingly the last one i think. (keep in mind previous HORDE tours had Phish/Neil Young/Beck/Claypool/Santanna and I dont blame BNL for HORDE's demise - I blame Blues Traveller).

In BNL's defense the crowd was receptive to their their music (they brought a college party attitude to stage and got the crowd going a little and I think their bass player, Jim Creeggan, is fucking smoking on the upright).

**** HERE COMES AN OPINION PEOPLE AND ITS ONLY MINE SO SWEAT IT NOT****

In my opinion though they had no business being there. They bored me, they changed the flow of the music too much, I took the oppurnity to go the bathroom, I cheered extra loud at the small stage (where Guv'n Mule headlined that year) for more songs so I wouldnt have to go back to the mainstage. All in all it seemed like a sucking (yes H you too are entitled to decide if something sucks from your perspective ). At least in the states BNL came on before Ben Harper but not in Canada baby (note Im a huge Ben Harper fan).

Anyway I didnt love it but I doubt I have the talent to have properly understood the musical experience BNL was unleashing on my ass.

Hey Paul just so im not confused (and im generally confused).

Do they want Phish and Dead or just more obscure bands or both?

I can do whatever just let me know.

As soon as I saw "pad thai" I thought of Siam Kitchen. I think if you ask for it 2 stars(heat level) it comes out pretty good.

Make him wear a name tag.

GM consider that Cities->Shirt off thing a done deal.

"Voodoo" but thats just a guess.

THIS IS NOT SLOTH IT IS HOWLER _ SORRY SLOTH TOES!! YIPPY! I luuuuuvvvvv tacky, bouncing, dashboard Hula girls...I don't mind 12 buckarooskies - but if you don't mind keepin' your eyes peeled for a better deal, all the better...though if I can make one little request - I would like there to be a lai around her neck - ie- I don't realy want to see bouncing Hula girl BOOBIES...ya know? I think I've seen 'em in da movies without the coverage..I got worried when I remembered that...hehe...

thanks for remembering - have a good time and don't forget the sunscreen young man!

Definately and thx in advance if you find it.

God damnit

I was all excited that there were 45 posts for the Mercury lounge tonight and low and behold its just a post that got Stinkwalleted up. At least the name works.

Ms. Hux i'd take a shot a you but honestly if I piss off another Lady in the next few months Howler will probably take out to the back yard and shoot me. Besides im low on ammo right now anyway.

NOW BACK TO MOSES MAYES

Sticking with Cheesecake's concepts of love for everything except the Leafs we can do some pre-drinks at my place. Ive got to go to the hospital today around dinner time to visit my bud but I should be back around 8:30. Hood lots of room in the drive way for the caddy, just park at the very end close to my house. Anyones welcome (Booche drag your ass out and bring some Phil)

Bouche Ive got you covered on the DS disks (havent made them yet but I will remember)

Still havent finished Jedi Knight II (I hand to put it down and finish some work ) but I havent had any problems with it and im really close to the end. I know people that have completed Fairlights version without any problems so Id just hope for the best.

If you're offering H, im taking. We should try and work something out.

WOOOOO HOOOOOO!!!!!

Nothing like checking the board just before you crash out and getting news like that.

I was also kind of bitching that moe. didnt include a Toronto date in their spring tour (not that Syracuse is far just thats there's a border in the way) but hey they came through for me. This Toronto show is gonna be so much fun.

DIIIIEEEEEEE!!!!

see you tomorrow

Isnt tomorrow night Moses Mayes?

Long live Cheesecake and GO SENS GO

"Ogdens Nut Gone Flake" by the Small Faces is one of my favorite story albums of all time. I havent heard it years and I have no idea where my old copy is.

Id have a tequila party at the nero mansion!

uh maybe not.....

Im with Bouche and GM, combine most of GMs concepts with the space station (i could see some problems getting bears into the space station.)

Yo LowRoller I taped it. If you are coming to the Mercury Lounge on Wednesday ill bring it to you.

Aaaack, the stench of a Leaf fan

Well once again its gonna happen - Ottawa vs HogTown, Small Market vs Large, Good vs Evil, Me vs the CBC, Roy vs Domi and thats where it all falls apart.

They shouldnt have traded him, he's heart and toughness and thats playoff hockey but .....

(Im now getting out on the highest and furthest limb of the tree as usual)

Sens are gonna take it.

I think the Leafs goaltending is in disarray (that include Cujo's post-Olympic head). Not that Schwab hasnt kept them in there, i just think he will be exposed in the playoffs (he lets in way to many weak ones and those break backs during playoffs). We'll see if Cujo can regain his form.

Roy is gone (man they should have just given up a draft pick for a center) but the Sens are tougher than last year and they wont have the Yashin disappearing in the playoffs thing to deal with. That guy was poison. Bonks having a career year, Alfie's healthy, Hossa is still Hossa (he'll take out your eye baby), Chara & Neil are nasty and now Lalime has seen what its like in the playoffs.

Id invite some Leafs fans over the watch the playoffs but seeing as its on the CBC there will already be enough cheering for the Leafs going on.

GOLF LEAFS GOLF

GO SENS GO

Thats a real score. Its gonna be fun to see them out in the open.

"A Wrinkle in Time" by Madeleine L'Engle - heavy shit for the young mind

and

Anything Dr.Seuss but mainly the one with the dogs having the big party in the giant tree (whatever book that was from)

Ive almost finished it

Got it last Monday - its pretty fun so far but theres a couple "What the hell do i do next?" moments and your character starts off the game swearing off the force and doesnt get it back until the 4th mission. Cmon who in the hell would swear off the force? Anyway hacking up the other Jedi's more than makes up for it, you just gotta get there.

Stapes - did you get your copy running at home?

That was fucking blast. Im really glad Harpua, Aberg and JP had the gear out cuz that was kinda one of the points of the show.

DoubleB if you're doing k-town I want in on the ride.

I thought the Ottawa show was amazing. The bar went nuts, the band went nuts, I went nuts. It was good stuff. (i wrote some small mini-review of the show in a previous thread titled "how you feelin?")

I cant wait to download the copy of the show - I dont think anyone managed to get a copy in Ottawa.
