just wondering if anybody's going to the commodore on thursday to check out dj sasha - i'm heading over from the island with a bunch of buddies, haven't really been to this kind of show before but i'm jonesin!

hey english! how's it going? i would love to get a copy of the pine knob show. what a fun day!

thanks, k-dog, i'd really appreciate that. sci is coming out here in october, but not to the island, of course. miss you guys : )

HOOKAH!

i miss hookah so much already.

SO much.

hey west coast folks, i finally made it back to victoria! so if there's something good going on don't hesitate to phone (721-3022) because my buddies here aren't exactly into the scene... hope to see some sanctuarians out and about!

congratulations you guys! i'm reallly happy for you both. i'm leaving to go back out west again on tuesday, so i don't know when our paths will cross again, but i miss you already and i wish you all the best! take care, lots of love and hugs, meggo : )

my highlights were:

tangled up in blue

gods of war

all along the watchtower

i shall be released

it was a beautiful night and a great time! maybe you'll catch him next time around.

okay, call me at work tomorrow if i don't get ahold of you tonight - 380-9156. i think i'll be stuck there til roughly 3. if that's too late just let me know, i can meet you in the big smoke. blair and christy are having that big going away party so i think i'm going to go there after the show, do you think you'll be up for that? and my sister lives right near there, so i might end up crashing there, just for convenience, but we can play that by ear. also - what do you want to do for sat night? keri was thinking maybe we could all camp. i think that would be okay. i'm pretty sure no one will feel like driving. anyway - give me a shout!

allo MT, how goes it? just starting to think about firming up weekend plans. sarah says she's not going, i gave her a bit of a hard time but what can ya do? anyway i'm still game, and some friends of mine (well you know blair and mud) they're havin a party that night and heading over for ABB the next day too, so we should arrange something with them. anyway, i'll b e around. sad to hear about houser.

peace : )

oh schwa. you missed a fun time. if you really want the details, i'll start it off and keri can fill in the holes - i didn't get there til saturday, so i missed the friday night with hookah.

SO!

i left early saturday morning from chatham, solo mission since the others went on friday (i had to work). it took me almost 6 hours since i took some unplanned routes, but the weather was nice and that part of ohio is pretty. this park, i don't know if you've been there, but it is Sweet!! it's a nice size, and the camping is good b/c there are lots of trees, unlike hookahville. a little more privacy. and nice for all-night campfires. anyway, there's a little lake right in the middle, and a beach area, and it's all right close to the stage for a nice beach-concert atmosphere. and it was nice and intimate, you could get right up there and see right up their noses if you wanted, almost. after some beach time and an unsuccessful attempt at a nap, we made it over to the stage to see yonder mountain string band. they were Fun! it was realy hot, but no matter. we just sweated happily. so ymsb was fun, good old bluegrass. then after a break, derek trucks came on. it was my first time seeing these guys (i've seen derek w/abb tho) and man they rocked my ass. derek is really a phenomenal guitar player, as if no one knew that already. they got a little horn section for a couple tunes, some guys from a band earlier in the day called 'either orchestra'. (they were fun too, they came down and played on the beach for a bit and walked all thru the grounds) in the break between DTB and hookah, they had some crazy skydivers jump out of a plane and landed right on the beach in front of us. one guy landed in the lake. what else.. the weather cooled off and made for a beautiful night. then the band we all came to see ( i think!) HOOKAAAAAAH!! they were absolutely great. i don't know the names of lots of songs but i'll wing it (you'll know them better). i did think of you especially when they played the 'schwa' song. derek came on, that was a highlight, they played a song i didn'tknow and then the sanford and sons theme. they played alexander II, deep river blues (a personal favourite)., the 'come back home' song, oh my memory is failing me, that song 'if you've got time to talk it over, i've got one more to burn', the 'hookahville' song, they covered bob marley's 'zimbabwe' and canned heat's 'going up the country'', i can't really remember any more at the moment. they were awesome. after the show, we wandered around a bit, made some new friends, went to some special campfire 'freddy's barbecue' where steve sweeney was hanging around a bit, i talked to him for a few minutes, and ed mcgee stopped by for a while too, he got away looking for some twins (girls) before i got over to chat. anyway, it was lots of fun, and you'll have to plan on going next time. the more the merrier!

a smashing success!!! i'm going to go pass out now!

oh well, looks like i'm doing the drive alone. wish me luck! and ya chewie, so far i'm definitely still on for bobby d and the bro's. have a good weekend all!

aloha thompson! hey what are you doing this weekend, i am planning on going to nelson ledges in ohio to check out derek trucks band, yonder mountain string band and ekoostik hookah, and i dont' want to drive by myself ! all the other chathamites and such (keri, mud, blair, karin) are leavin friday morning but i gotta work. i'm leaving saturday morning, pretty early to get there and see ymsb and derek. it's 40$ american for camping and the shows. come on it's going to be a blast! check it out at www.nlqp.com. call me if you want or just post (674-5501/352-2516) later! megs

i'm a little bit jealous man! i went to the folk fest last summer when i was living in lake louise, and it was FUN!!! probably the best day i had all summer. those workshops are pretty cool eh! thanks for bringing back some sweet memories.

stevie ray vaughn!

oh man... as if we don't see enough boobs everywhere else

is anybody going to big sugar this weekend? friday at eightball. i'm going.

next weekend: have we reached a consensus? i'm voting for nelson, but i'll go with the majority.

this will be the new girls' first shows since the op! wheeeee : )

i'm really sorry puddles! i just know when my doggie goes i am going to be a basketcase. but, i'm sure your kitty is in good hands.

university student - almost done!/health records clerk (summer)

that is awful. i just saw them for the first time and he wasn't there. i think we should all send some extra-strong healing vibes out to mr houser. you never know!

thanks to you too SG, i went to calgary folk fest last summer and it was the BEST time, seriously i think i had the most fun there of any place all summer. hopefully i can check out the new amp when i'm back in cowtown around the end o' august.

YO SCHWATIVA - everything is a-o-k, thanks for the good vibes; i think i might have myself semi-healed by the beginning of august to make it down to nelson ledges, are you going to that? you should check out the website it looks like hookahville but better! a swimmin hole! : )

thanks weezy : )

i know somebody just posted about this not long ago, but i can't find the thing and i'm trying to give my friend out there the lowdown. esp interested in the rfasp shows, thanks a ton : )

hey kc's going too eh, he got my ticket. have fun!
