  1. "is it alright if i huff some gas today?" only if you bought it yesterday! The other day I paid over $1.30/L for regular gas! BOOOOOOO!
  2. Thanks Bouche.... The link you just sent is the same link that I was talking about. The problem is that it only shows May. Is there anything I can type in to show me June or July?
  3. And then even when you go in and click another month, you don't get to see the whole calender, you just what's happening at every hour of that day. I don't know anything about computer programing, but I do know how to look things up and add things. All this system needs in order to be usable by me is to be able to browse every month the same way as the current month.
  4. while browsing the calander, is there any way to change the page? It just says May.
  5. Great Breakfast - Seb's (on Broadway and Carolina which is just west of Fraser). Go during the week to avoid humungus line up. Cafe Du Sole on Commercial Dr. has a good breakfast, then it's a good area to walk around and shop. Lots of great Indian food! Off the top of my head.... "Indian Oven" in Kitsalano, or a fusiony vegetarion Indian place on Commercial Dr. called "Yogi's". The best Burrito place ever.... "Budgies". It's a very small vegetarian place on Kingsway just before it meets Main North of Broadway. Go for lunch. At some point, go see the band "Brickhouse". Thursdays @ the Fairview 10:00 - 2:00am. Friday and Sat. @ the Yale from 12:30 - 3:00am and Sunday @ the Yale from I think 8:30 - 2:00am. Keep an eye on the message boards in www.upstreamentertainment.com and www.bonfirepresents.com for other events. I'm sure there's many more ideas to come... You're staying in a great central location and it's perfect that you'll have bikes. Make sure you get a lock and take your bikes anywhere.
  6. Can't wait! I've got front row center!!!
  7. Hey Mark.... As Stone mentioned, www.upstreamentertainment.com which has the most traffic for the message boards. Then there's also www.bonfirepresents.com. For Jazzfest, I'm aiming to see Tortoise, Derek Trucks, Amon Tobin, hopefully many others, and not part of jazzfest, but at the same time, Hot Buttered Rum.
  8. http://www.archive.org/details/nrps1977-12-07.fm.weiner.27789.sbeok.shnf on Archive.org, there seems to be a lot of crapy sounding recordings. This one sounds good.
  9. You guys are increadibly lucky to be seeing them, especially with the Fat Cats. They played here in Vancouver at a local legendary blues bar, "The Yale". Lots of folks did come out of the wood work for this, but I was extremely surprised at how little of the regular jamband show goers were actually there. It was a bit more of an old school trucker, biker, blues crowd. NRPS was amazing and played lots of old favourites. I highly recomend warming up for this show by listening to NRPS from the 70's as opposed to newer stuff. If you listen to a whole lot of newer stuff, you'll find it really sounds the same as the show you'll see. Listen to lots of the old stuff, get refamiliarized with the tunes, then see it live, love it, then go home and listen to the new stuff. Trust me. have fun!
  10. p.s. Nothing against Wassabi. Those guys are great, but for this situation, Jackfruit.
  11. Here's my opinion Stone..... Because you live in Ontario and havn't seen Jackfruit lately, I just saw them before they left town, finally since their new drummer, and they've stepped it up huge. I know that since they were last in Ontario and since they got their new drummer, they've been practicing like 3 times a week, and in the last 5 weeks before they left for tour they played I think 5 times. They're an increadible band who is on fire right now and you should definetely go see Jackfruit!
