  1. I'd love to see KJP live.. Hopefully in the Fall. That's one hell of a quote from Bill F!
  2. Yeah Hamilton they are both in Hongdae. Skunk Hell is right across the road from Club Tool (where we went to see DJ Andy Smith on June 25, 2006.) Actually here's a map: I'd love to have you to my new pad for a pre-beer, either night! Cowboy there will be very little to no scoobies for any of us over here. Speaking of Slackers, any of you fans have any album preferences? I've always been partial to "Wasted Days". Recently I just acquired "An Afternoon In Dub".. All dub, not surprisingly. It's quickly moved up to the #2 spot on my Slackers favourites list.

  21. I love these stories, keep em comin! Some friends of mine living in Chedoke Ave. always recall that there was a posse of about 20 hippies from the States who were camping out in the forest between their street and Chedoke golf course. Apparently the city was very accomodating for that kind of thing when the Dead visited. Pretty funny that Jerry found himself at Crowbar on Barton of all places.
