Alright, point made.
But, thing is I'm not down with buying off ebay (not because i don't trust or haven't done before, just for other reasons) and I don't need the best guitar in the world. Just a solid guitar for 300-500 range that I can find locally. I mean, i really like telecaster style, but I'd be open to others.
...or would Fender Standard American Teles be a better bet?
-
Pros: Within price range (just about), fender telecaster (mim) is what i wanted, need one soon because im not a patient person but i could be persuaded on this one
Cons: Don't like the colour, the lack of patience and investigating elsewhere could be a con for myself here too

Excellent lineup! Granted these aren’t the biggest names, but there are a lot of really talented, upcoming, local acts that talk the “folk†aspect to new areas.
...just throw in a Patrick Watson and we're good! :-)
(sadly theres a high chance I may not be able to make it too :-((

Its an excellent album. Chase Scene is my favorite, but that main riff on Love Sick gets embedded in my head.
I like whole album a ton.

I would so love to see them live, but like you said, Sundays are tricky and I got some early stuff at work Mon morning to take care of. bumma

Back in January there was this large post on R3:

The openers are fantastic:
I won't be attending the show as I committed to Zaphods that night, and I'll be seeing TT next week opening for Patrick Watson. But, I know some folks who would probably love a spot. let me check.

Werd up.

I like the latter lineup even more!
Super props man.

I stand corrected Ollie. Still seems weird to let the fest sit dark for a day, but maybe I'm just bitter because that is the first day of my vacation.
Going over the list it seems that, compared to other years, they haven't really dished out the big money for acts. Now I have no clue what these acts charge or what the Bluesfest budget is but it seems scaled back. I mean who on that list would be really that expensive besides say Santana? There's lots of Canadian bands, mid tier acts and unknowns.
I'm hoping this means they saved their dollahs for some more big names, I guess we'll see.

This year's talent budget will come in at about $5 million, said Monahan, which is up about $1 million from last year. "It's hard to top every year but I would say if you look at the major festivals across North America, this lineup stands with the best of them," Monahan said. The theme is Bluesfest Goes to Hollywood, a nod to the fact that actor Kevin Costner and his band, Modern West, are booked to perform July 17.Monahan said the $5-million total includes the money spent on programming the Blues in the Byward offshoot festival, which will feature free outdoor concerts in the Byward Market over two weekends: July 9-11 and July 16-18. That lineup will be announced in mid-May.

The Haldern 09 show is now up on YT: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=734D9BADFF1D4D24
Not just an amazing performance but also check out the filming and editing job by the crew on tracks like Beijing:
especially during the drum and strings freakout mid way through -
So, I'm getting ravaged on the extra fees for going over 60 gigs. And enough is enough, I need to switch ISPs to one that has no cap, but is equally fast and reliable etc.
Does anyone have any good suggestions for ISPs available in Ottawa?

Notes
- Recorded approx 35ish ft from stage in front of soundboard, however at times the sound
will fluctuate because I move forward a few feet or to side to either get better view.
- Their set overlaped with Lynyrd Skynyrd and threw some humurous knocks about it.
