timouse

Wow! Congratulations, guys, and welcome Liam! There's nothing like the timeless time you're in, with an entirely new person who's wandered into the world. I hope everybody's recovering well; don't forget to sleep.

spioken like a veteran! woo hoo doug & lex!!

welcome liam!

have a great trip lex!

sorry we missed you afetr the show on saturday...when 2 became 3, everyone suddenly started thinking about getting home & getting to bed....

i'm sure we'll see you back here once you're relocated.

bye!

Thanks everybody who made it out last night; I'm so bummed to have missed the after-show jam (due to a knot of impossible logistics), but hope a raincheck is in order. Lex, I'm glad we had a chance to see you once last time before you vanish behind the mountains. Hope nobody had anything they slept an hour too late for today.

See y'all next time!

as usual dr evil says it all. niffermouse and i had a blast, and are very sorry that we missed ricky & lex afterwards....damn time change!

lex, hope you have a great trip out west! the universe willing you may find mice on your doorstep

We'll have to play a song or two tonight to send out some positive healing vibes for Neil.

We should have an "every band currently playing include some Neil in the setlist" thing going. I'm no believer in petitionary prayer, but you can't knock the good vibe quality of that. And who knows, maybe Neil's a secret Jambands lurker... (or not!).

But I expect he already knows everybody's rooting for him, which is good. Get better, Neil!

indeed. and if we play them badly, he will have no choice but to get better and redeem his catalogue

indeed! belated birthday wishes from snowy acton!

hope you enjoy yourself despite the kick to the head from mother nature

happy birthday!!

There was that other occasion at Stratengers, though, where they did have a hockey game on in the background; funny how every goal happened at precisely the same moment as a killer moment in a song . I remember not sussing that one out until I actually turned around and saw what was being projected behind us.

oh yeah, forgot about that one.

You know that big last note of a concert?

One evening, it was a huge show and we were rocking out big time. When that huge last chord came, I raised my bass triumphantly in the air and came down with the headstock HARD on our conga player's head. It really hurt him and everybody saw it!!

That was like 4 years ago and I'm still getting ribbed about it... >_<

ok, that made me laugh out loud. that is memorable, no wonder you're still hearing about it.

i don't know if i can think of something embarrassing to top phishy k. i do remember playing a gig with mark tonin and dr evil where elements of the crowd badgered the bartender in to turning on the TV at midnight (really loud too) to watch a hockey game or something on in the middle of what was the middle of our second set.

no wait, it was saturday night live that they put on....and not even good saturday night live either. taking the hint, we packed up and got the hell out quickly.

crowds have been much better to us since the secret is to play to happy friendly freaky people instead of surly drunken students hellbent on bad television. someone told us later that this bar showed snl most every saturday, but i think they were just being nice

I saw that counter climbing up to its incipient Big Round Figure, and thought, Wow. You always have such totally enjoyable and spot-on appropriate posts, Brad, and set a good example for budding board junkies like me. Keep 'em coming!

What He Said. Your usually brilliant posts here and your kind activities in meatspace make a lot of folks very happy.

We'll drink a toast to you on Saturday!

Cindy at the Boathouse sent this to me, thought I'd pass it on. Michael Pickett looks like an interesting show, and [shameless self-promotion] i hear those Harvard Mouse guys are okay [/shameless self-promotion]

i saw "food of the gods" and thought you were talking about terence mckenna

What would you need to do to be reborn as such a small mammal?

if there's justice in the world, dick cheney will be reincarnated as lemmywinks II

it's 12:57 now, you're sitting in a waiting room somewhere, hope it goes well. just imagine all of us in our underwear.

i have had my beard for almost the last year. grew it on vacation, love it largely because i'm no longer giving my money to the gilette company!

and i love it becuase niffermouse loves it too...

We caught him maybe at the same show, but I do remember wishing they would play around a little - the tunes were all pretty cut and dried. And I could have used fewer stories about him flying his plane around between yacht clubs in the Caribbean, too.

however we discovered that cute young kids make great cover for security people hellbent on ferreting out dope smokers

no worries, deb. i'm pretty sure that if you have them humming dd at 8 years old, they're on the right track. and if the going gets weird, uncle tim & aunt jennifer will be there

you do have particularly cool kids....

i hope that all you fine toronto foilk have a great thursday night, it looks like something else has come up, and i don't think i'm capable of three nights of music...*sigh* and i was so looking forward to this! a chance to mingle with the toronto jambands crowd and not play a single song

oh well, there's always next time....

all right chuck! lookin' forward to seeing you there! you say the nicest things

gotta like that i get oficial notice of our gigs here. *grinning*

come on out all you kw folks, it'll be a blast!

mmmm.bruschetta....now there's something we can all agree on!

Paan, have you given any thought to what might happen once the hair starts to noticably grow back? Stubble can be itchy, at times. (My brother had this problem when he started growing a beard, and found that normal hair conditioner helped.)

Aloha,

BRAD (Barbers, Razors, And Depilatories)

brad, you're always thinking around the corner.

you must kick ass at chess

looks like there should be enough pent up jammin' energy in the room to make thursday kick.

hey dr evil, you want to meet up thursday night & head over?

bouche, just turned betasanctuary on and it looks great! the links seem to be showing up ok here, i imagine that you're making constant tweaks.

i like it.

I have these recurring phantasies about taking all these folks from all different corners and leaving them on some godforsaken island somewhere to sort it all out, but a) I like to think there's no such thing as a godforsaken anything, and you wouldn't want to inflict them on the local wildlife.

ok dave, let's pitch it to the fox network...Fundamentalist Survivor!

throw religious nutjobs of all stripes on an island somewhere and let them duke it out for ratings "...see which is the one true faith."

indeed. hope you have a good one, maybe you oughta take your advice to deb & get hammered on baby duck to celebrate
