Saw this with my extended family. Great thing to do as a group, especially if you have visitors from out of town. Thumbs up to NCC!

^ oh for sure, I'll get it all transferred at some point this week. The highlight of the festival for me was Brothers Salvation workshop with Arrested Development, Bruce Peninsula, Hoots and Hellmouth, Hidden Cameras, and Jill Zmud. Specifically the Crabapples jam that evolved into AD's Revolution and then into 4 Non Blonde's "Whats Going On". Just one of those special moments. I was also quite blown away by Hoots and Hellmouth and the ferioucness and energy they play with. Will definitely catch them if they roll around here again. Was great meeting you Sean and your team, and Hans did an excellent job on Galaxie tent as well, super nice guy! Tell him that.

Haha yes I have seen the film. Friends mom knew they were coming to Bfest -> knew I was big music and film fan -> recommended and lent me Once -> I saw it loved it -> I bailed on Rush to see them... Even with all the problems they were suffering from during their set, the sincerity and emotion resonated with me the most in the "wow" kind of way than any other act. I could only imagine the exponential awesomeness it must be to see them in their own right at a concert hall.

Its scary how similar my thoughts and actions are. I too bailed on Rush out of pure instinct and I too think that Swell Season was my favorite show of Bfest.

..and im off to OFF. I'll be at BP's set at Dance Tent for tonight and some Acorn thereafter.

Gotdamn, Plants killed it! SO great to see them headline that stage. I was dancing like nuts. Guru/Sinnerman encore was the best version I heard of it.

Excellent indeed.

The Swell Season > RUSH for me. I'm getting too old for the 30whateverthousand people shows, and loud loud music.

The schedule is now up. You can find it here: http://www.ottawafolk.org/?schedule Curious to know when the daytime schedule and workshops will be announced?

dit to the toe

To answer my own question, the box office opens at 4. So if any of you dt workers are only a few bust stops away and want to jump on tickets, you can do so that early. For me, I'm flying with the Birdman tonight.

Aloha, Brad What are their hours of operation...meaning to say , when does the box office open? I'm thinking of sticking around work (1 bus stop away) grabbing them for that day at that saweet price.

Just found out my buddy has passes, so I'm gonna hit the Herbies tonight! Tal and Vinnie wowza.

Wow they were awesome on radio, could only imagine being there.

Listening now to the broadcast. Can't wait to hear Bruce Peninsula kill it.

Not too many surprises there. Hoped locals Balconies and Leif Vollebekk would make it.
