I'll be there rain or shine, cancellation or no cancellation. The show must go on!!

Saw Doug Paisley last night at Quai Des Brumes in Montreal. Wonderful mellow show by an outstanding musician. It was him and his long time collaborator Chuck Erlichman, vocals and two acoustic guitars. Jenny Whiteley and Joey Wright opened -- not sure if that's the case in Ottawa or not. Either way, highly recommended. https://www.dougpaisley.com/ https://www1.ticketmaster.ca/doug-paisley-ottawa-ontario-03-30-2019/event/3100554FB6B53107?dma_id=522&artistid=1496495&majorcatid=10001&minorcatid=2

Another lineup to make you feel old!

True, better lineup than Blues Fest, but I will have no problem giving this one a pass.

Radio Canada is giving away 108,000 records. http://www.cbc.radio-canada.ca/en/explore/french-services/calls-for-interest/

Ocelot vs Bear Cat!

New article from the McGill U website about alumni Donna Grantis from 3rdEyeGirl. http://mcgillnews.mcgill.ca/s/1762/news/interior.aspx?sid=1762&gid=2&pgid=2050

The guys is a prolific songwriter, not all of it is gold, but I like how his music has progressed in recent years. I thought Prisoner was a great album. Both Prisoner and the b-sides album have a handful of beautifully crafted songs that I love. I'm not crazy about the new song with John Mayer on it, but the Mayer solo is nice. Curious to see what comes of the Bobby stuff!

I thoroughly enjoyed watching the Netflix doc. Some good news: the Bahamian caterer lady who is featured in the doc has crowd funded over $240K. https://globalnews.ca/news/4883632/fyre-fest-maryann-rolle-gofundme/

This was about the same as my experience, except I got lucky and ended up with a pair at the back of 201 right beside Kuroda. It was a bit chaotic, but worked out well and I have little in the way of complaints about my experience. Sucks that some of us here had a tough go of it. Better than the older model though. Almost everyone I know got pavillions - that's a first.

Nice - glad that roll of the dice worked out for you!

Well put Booche! I think the waitlist thing was a surprise for anyone who got that email. BUT, last night around Midnight I got text messages with my access code, and at about 4 AM got a second email saying "you've been selected". So now I'm a Verified Fan too. From the looks of things on Twitter many others have been going through the same process. Good luck to all for decent good seats.

Waitlisted. 😠
