Freak By Night

I like the new location. I liked Britannia too, but I can see how it was too far for some people.

Yes BWM, Hog's Back Park is on the north side of Hog's Back Road.

I'll be sending a similar e-mail, definitely with the bold section removed. Air Canada's letter to the NHL made absolutely no request that Chara's non-suspension be rescinded. In fact, the news I read indicated Air Canada sent their letter before Chara's hearing even took place.

I'm pretty sure they were selling beer when April Wine played there a few weeks ago.

Brutal. Couldn't believe that. Hope he's alright.

Made these sandwiches tonight on Bouche's recommendation.

Oh My God. So tasty and filling too.

The standard DiRienzo's deli meat sandwich, that is now 5 bucks, is pretty much the same thing you'll get at Subway.

Get back to me when Subway offers spicy eggplant - or spicy anything for that matter.

Great write-up!

Sounds like it went until after midnight. That's gonna be a problem for my friends bringing their young kids to the show this coming Sunday.

Good schtuff

Yeah that's my take on it too Esau. Good post!

Unfortunately, many Canadians saw the images of smashed windows and burning cop cars, followed by hundreds of demonstrators arrested, and will conclude that Harper IS right for the job because he (indirectly) rounded up all those "criminals".

Those same Canadians see the CBC as a left-wing propaganda cop-bashing network.

What do you guys think - was this a situation of the cops being assholes, or did the order come down from the top (Harper) to round up the peaceful protesters so they'd think twice about protesting again? Or a combination of both?

A few things that struck me as very odd about the whole thing:

- they had all of those temporary holding cells ready to go. They must have expected to fill them.

- the cops removed their name badges

- they closed in on the demonstrators, telling them to go home, without giving them a pathway out of the area

Watching that episode of "The Fifth Estate" the other night certainly helped foment my deep-seated disdain of authority.

No, still $5, according to a review posted yesterday on urbanspoon.com

I think we should go on sandwich crawl sometime, when the weather warms up a bit.

Di Rienzo's is still holds the crown in my opinion.

Art-is-in may have a better sammy, but Di Rienzo's wins for price, variety, location, and service.

This morning I asked a co-worker if he was going to any Phish concerts. The response was less than enthusiastic.

This isn't an ice-breaker, but the term "living document" was bandied about at a meeting this morning. I especially hate that meaningless term.

Another Roadside Attraction 1993:

Daniel Lanois, Hothouse Flowers, Midnight Oil, and The Tragically Hip

Lanois got the full respect and adulation of the crowd here in Ottawa.

Swiss Chalet did a study and they found that the average Swiss Chalet diner has one foot in the grave. They're now trying to appeal to a younger crowd.

Another "Another Roadside Attraction" is my guess.

I think King of Limbs is the worst Radiohead album ever.

But.... it's still pretty good. I like it.

I'd recommend the meatpacking district.

My brother was showing me his old ticket stubs on the weekend.

Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band

Lansdowne Park

August 1980

Price: $8.00

Please... it's "Sargeant Suggestion"

I'm digging it... not my favorite Radiohead album ever, but still pretty good. It's growing on me.

I'd love to see Phish in Montreal as much as anyone, and I hate to be a buzzkill, but have any posted rumored tour dates/venues ever been accurate?
