I had a cane, but nobody hit me.

Although I did see the guy pinned to the concrete outside at set break.

He didn't look like he was enjoying himself.

Were you the kid with the cane near the back chillin with his lady friend?

If so, I'm the kid that threw you a piece of blue kyanite...

It was setbreak and LeshLush was trying to record me making out with my lady. We can get loud sometimes. Anyhow, I made fun of his windsock and right when he was comenting that it cut the highs out I popped him one and broke his nose.

guy with cane vs. guy with glasses.

it was an all out brawl.

victory was indeed mine.

Dude, first off, I didn't even bring my recording rig and wasn't even around the tapers section... Secondly, this is the second time that you make reference to my cane... I have no cane, I don't know what the hell you're talking about... You got the wrong kid... On another board, you make reference to me being an old man w/ my cane... I'm 29 dude, (hell I'm still a young pup, wet behind the ears) and wasn't even sporting a walking stick let alone a cane...

Not that I take what you say as being serious, but no offense, leave me the fuck out of this... I had nothing to do with the fight and was far away from it when it went down, so please do not throw my name in with all of that negative energy...

Who's Jon?

In case you're being serious:

Jon is Jon Fishman...

Where did you boys think that the "E" in "JEMP" was from...

"J" Jon

"E" Ernest

"M" Mike

"P" Page

"JEMP Productions"...

As well, during stage banter, they've often refered to Try as Ernesto...

Ernest is appearing at the Palace Theatre on December 29.

On top of Bobby and Trey, The Everyone Orchestra is always a good draw for me and I've even been finding myself listening to more moe these days and I haven't seem them since 2000 (or 2001?)...

I'm also hoping to see some of the regular bluegrass(newgrass) acts be added shortly...

I may be in the minority here but I think that line up looks weak. Have you heard Trey's last few albums? Will Bobby have the short shorts on?

I by no means think that this line-up is over the top by any means but it's definitely a good start... As mentioned they have 50 more acts to be announced...

And I don't know if you remember last year but some of the big names weren't announced until near the end...

That being said, I still always enjoy a good Bobby spit-fit and the rest of those Ratdog boys...

And also, as much as I agree that Trey's albums have been garbage, his live shit's been in top form these days (It's no Phish, it's not the big 10 piece, but still lots of great music)

There's a crew of us from Edmonton talking about flying into Fargo and renting an RV... There are direct flights from Edmonton to Fargo and they're dirt cheap... I guess the venue is only an hour or so from Fargo...

We've had this plan in the works for a while now, we were just waiting on the lineup to seal the deal...

Looks like we'll be going...

And hopefully I'll be able to score one of those VIP taper tix... Over the last couple of years, they've been offering free upgrades to taper's... Total VIP pass / get you anywhere pass...

with over 50 more acts to be announced!

Bob Weir & RatDog

Trey Anastasio

Umphrey's McGee

Gov't Mule

The Everyone Orchestra

WookieFoot

Moses Mayes

On a serious note,

I hope all is well w/ you and yours... I hope the city is treating you well...

to bad you went home early.

I knew that I could expect a smart-ass remark when I saw that you replied...

Now listen here C-Clown, I've told you once and I'll tell you again, I was there until the light had fully come up and the new day had began... It was like 9:00 or 9:30 AM when I left... Other than going for a booze run back to the Drake at like 4:00, I was there all night...

As for me missing the first part of the second set, I was still upstairs being a dirt-bag w/ my nose burried... I did catch the last bit of the first song, but I did miss the first part when Mark mentions that it was requested by me...

As for the post party, I was there... Trust me... I even saw the sorry likes of you kicking around...

I don't know why you have it in your head that I bailed...

Come back to AB soon, looking forward to bitch slapping you before too long... I'll even let you decide whether you want the front or the back-side of my hand...

That show has really good sound quality too. :thumbup:

Although, I can't take full resp for the sound quality as the venue and the band have a big impact, I do want to say thanks... I'm actually quite happy with my pull...

A what a great night... A messy night to say the least...

In case anyone is interested in a taste, here is a smokin show from 2006-06-10:

Themasses 2006-06-10

Available to stream...

I know that this link has already been posted in the Bit-Torrent Forum a long time back, just thought that I would save you the digging...

Any island-folk on the fence about these dates, I can promise that you won't be disappointed...

Themasses are one of Canada's best Funktronica bands going...

Well this has been fun... But it's back to work for this kid...

You just gotta look around

So swift and bright

Strange figures of light

Float in air

The shape it takes could be yours to choose

Say it once again now, whoa, I hope you'll understand...

make your way to Grossmans cause

Everybodys playing in the heart of gold band

well in that case.

I gotta get down.

I gotta get down.

I gotta get down to Grossmansssssssssssssss

You should get down to Grossmans, I herad that...

They're a band beyond description, Like Jehovah's favorite choir

and without love in a dream it will never come true.

They say love your brother, but you will catch it when you try

They do have a lot of lyrics don't they...

Wish I could remember them when I have to..

How does the song go?

Don't worry...

If you get confused' date=' listen to the music play!

[/quote']

But what would be the answer to answer man?

Theyre telling me forgiveness is the key to every door

see above...

They do have a lot of lyrics don't they...

Wish I could remember them when I have to..

How does the song go?

Don't worry...

If you get confused, listen to the music play!

Then Again,

Sometimes the songs that we hear are just songs of our own

Don't forget, they're Americans...

Don't get me wrong, I myself am a dual-citizen and my father still lives in the US... My point was not to stereo-type someone based on nationality, but anyone can agree that even the furthest left Dems still stand strong behind the US Empire... They all believe in the State and the State's resp to mold the world in their image... They use this mis-conjured view that in the world, only 2 sides exist, Good & Evil... And they strongly advocate that their way is not only Good but that they need to instill this in other nations and protect others from what they deem Evil...

Anyways, I'm just ranting by this point, so I'll just shut up now...

Actually, he lost the Democratic primary to Ned Lamont, due to his support for the Iraq War, etc. He was always one of the more right-wing Democrats, but has said he will sit in the Democratic Caucus in the Senate.

Even before loosing to Ned, it was often rumoured that he would run independant due to party conflict...

It's true that he is a strong-arm Dem but only the same way Clinton was... Don't forget, they're Americans... Some believed in the War (and still do) and some never did... He is however very left when it comes to social programs and social concerns, and those agenda's are not held w/ the Reps...
