The Kingston Derby Girls and the Skeleton Park Music Festival proudly present the KDG’s 2011 season kick off event… a double header bout this Friday, June 17, 2011. With KDG’s Sinderollas playing an opening mini-bout, the main event will feature KDG’s The Disloyalists facing off against Peterborough Roller Derby! In conjunction with the Skeleton Park Music Festival, this event will include live entertainment by Slick Whippet, Sheezer, Rueben deGroot and The Gertrudes. The bout starts at 6:30 p.m. on the 17th, but doors are at 5:30 and the entertainment starts at 6 p.m. — get to the Kingston Memorial Centre early for good times and good seats! (Pro tip: bring a lawn chair or a yoga mat to sit on if you want to sit right up by all the action.) Tickets: $15 in advance and $18 at the door. Kids 10 and under get in free (limit: two per adult). Tickets are available online at www.brownpapertickets.com and in Kingston at Get Funky Boutique, The Mansion, UPS, and Novel Idea. There’ll even be a post-bout after-party thrown by The Mansion at the Kingston Memorial Centre after the bout and bands, so plan for an amazing night of rock & derby. www.kingstonderbygirls.ca

Any chance anyone has extra tickets for Saturday night's upstairs show at The Mansion? Four of my fellow derby girls left it 'til the last minute and now they can't get them.

It was the best night of my life...honestly! (I can say that on here because my husband doesn't read this) I sit on the BoD and I was so worried we wouldn't sell the 500 tickets needed to break even. Our dressing room was right beside the entrance so I spent a lot of the time before the bout just watching the lineup that was through the parking lot and out to the street....I was in awe. I might also add that we throw one hell of an awesome after-party! The Mansion (who sponsors us and sold beer at the event) said it was by far, their most profitable night ever. We don't have anything planned yet for another bout. Rumour is maybe in the spring. We don't have a place to practice from Dec-Feb and right now we are just working on passing the skills test at the end of November. There is a group of about 45 of us renting a bus and heading up to see the ToRD championship game on November 13. That should be fun!

Did I mention Neil Young's sister plays roller derby for the Kingston Derby Girls? She's Maggie Mangler...check out our roster pics at http://kingstonderbygirls.ca/?page_id=14

Here it is! Kingston's Roller Derby League...It'll be entertaining for sure! Friday, September 10, Doors at 6pm, Bout at 7pm. Featuring trackside beer garden and a half-time performance by PELT. Tickets available at Novel Idea, Get Funky Boutique and The Mansion. $15 advance and $18 at the door. Kids 10 and under are free.

Yours Truly, I can't stop watching your avatar. Wickedawesome!

That's awesome! I can't wait until we can actually play other teams. I haven't even been out to a real bout yet, but I bet it would be so much fun to watch, not to mention play! Congrats!

Booche here. The point was to hopefully sign him but obviously the Habs are way too close to the cap to be able to afford the extra 500 grand Ellis got in TB. In directly related opinion......Alex Auld? Really PG? REALLY? Go.Fuck.Yourself.

So, I went with Little Orphan-Maker Annie (pending approval by www.twoevils.org). Thanks gentlemonkey. My backup is Amy Roundhouse. For those that are interested, there is a fund raiser here in Kingston on Saturday, July 10th at The Mansion. They have some bands lined up that I have never heard of, but they're donating their time: Spread the Secret On a Whim Mississippi Grover Dr Jones I won't be there as I will be spending the night with my favourite nephew in Ottawa while his parents go to see The Flaming Lips. Baby Booche and I will be having our own party that night and I can't wait! The fundraiser is to support our first bout in September. Since we haven't met all the minimum skill requirements yet, we can only play against each other, but it promises to be entertaining! Save the date: Friday, September 10.

I was asleep at my desk. Damn thing woke me up. But pretty cool...first one I have ever felt.

A lot of girls from the new Kingston league are going to check this out but there is talk of it selling out. I'd definitely go if we weren't camping this weekend.

QrkgV5bl7kQ I don't know how to make it the picture. bouche edit: like that!

Bouche would not send something with such poor grammar and spelling. Surprisingly it doesn't say you're account.

First of all, stop looking at my boobs or I'm telling Mom. Secondly, Anne Grenda is already taken

Oh...and my husband thinks I should be Slamantha Fox. Will anyone even know who that is?

Thanks for the links livingstoned. I had already googled TCRG when you mentioned it earlier. The WFTDA is a great site. I was reading up on the equipment as I was planning on getting mine on Monday. Good stuff in there to know. Now I have some studying to do! Rules...ref signals... You say it took you 7-8 months to pass the minimums...were you a skater when you started? Because I haven't been on roller skates in YEARS. Just wondering what I should expect.

Love Anne-i-maul, but already taken as Annie Maul. Anne Illgesix is good too...I'll be using lots of those! Amy Roundhouse is near the top of the list...I could layer on the eyeliner right to my ears! Anne Other One Bites the Dust and Little Orphan-Maker Annie are my two favs so far. Yes, Booche, I am actually joining a league. It starts the end of April at the M-Centre...Thursday nights from 8-10. I had no idea how big it was but I guess in Toronto and Quebec it's growing really fast so they're branching out to Kingston. Should be fun! Thanks for the suggestions :content:

Since everyone had such great name suggestions for Large Marge, I was thinking you might be able to help me out. I am joining a Roller Derby league and to register, I need to have a name that needs to be registered and cannot already be in use here: http://www.twoevils.org/rollergirls/ Booche had suggested Crashasaurus spelled Crash-A-Sore-Ass which is really funny but I need something menacing...intimidating... I just rented Whip It to and some names from it are Maggie Mayhem, Smashley Simpson, Bloody Holly, Eva Destruction, and Iron Maven I guess you need to know a little about me to help me out: My name is Anne Vincent I am 37 years old (and Anne-tique has already been rejected, thanks!) I have two kids, sometimes 3 (depending on how much trouble the third one is in). They like Rollerama Mama. I'm very shy until I get into the tequila, hence a previous nickname of 3-Tequila-Anne. I've always been a bit of a tom boy but my wheels are hot pink. I'm a Medical Laboratory Technologist and wish that Amoxikillin wasn't already taken. I'm a bit of a Trews groupie (and ParAnne-oid Freak has also been rejected-not menacing enough). Other suggestions I've had are: Jamologist (you are either a Jammer or a Blocker). Ella Vader-love it, but it's taken. Shake'n'Break Ya Piece and Love InVincentable So...suggestions?

Saturday, June 19th at Zwicks Park in Belleville ZZ Top, Collective Soul, BIG SUGAR, Gord Downie, Karl Wolf and Manny Fernadez all for $49.50. Tickets on sale Friday at 10am through all Ticketmaster Locations, charge by phone at (416) 870-8000, online at www.ticketmaster.ca or in person at the Kelsey’s in Belleville. I did a little copy and paste from the K-Rock website. I'm thinking it is supposed to say Danny Fernandez not Manny Fernandez. Wikipedia lists 4 Mannys: A football player, an entrepreneur, a professional wrestler/football player and a hockey player. So you Manny fans, don't get too excited. I think it's a typo.

I will make it a point to be in the area! Trying to convert some friends from Niagara Falls into Trews fans. And congrats on the nomination for Favourite Live Artist/Group from the indies. A live show is sure to help convert them!

HAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA! It really does! Like one of those age-enhanced pictures.

Hey... I just noticed I've graduated from Roadie to Groupie and well on my way to Rockstar!!!

Of course...Friday in Toronto too! Sometimes I think it's weird that I am friends with people that I have met through our mutual love of The Trews. Even weirder is that I have invited them to stay at my house tomorrow. But isn't that how everyone on this board knows each other? Mutual Phish love? Except me...I joined because booche said I could.

Hey HeadyMamaMyrna...we forgot to take a picture of us playing tug-of-war over him to post on here! Well, here are some pics of us enjoying him...
