"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!

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?

This has made my day!

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.

while browsing the calander, is there any way to change the page? It just says May.

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.

Can't wait! I've got front row center!!!

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.

on Archive.org, there seems to be a lot of crapy sounding recordings. This one sounds good.

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!

p.s.

Nothing against Wassabi. Those guys are great, but for this situation, Jackfruit.

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!

Um.... Can we stop talking about this "Panic at the Disco" band on this website? This is a "jambands" website and I'm pretty sure that "Panic at the Disco" is not a Jamband. I've never actually listened to them, because I hear that they're not a jamband so therefore I probably never will.

thanks.

Cheers from the west you guys. The photos will light up my day!

This also gets me even more excited for my sister's new born supposedly in two weeks.

Enjoy the moments!

Hey.... it's getting better..... Mike took Trey's guitar and, well he sounds better than Trey.

pretty week so far. I think the editer has a hard-on for Trey. It's all he shows.

yeah "lovelight"!

I saw them in Vancouver and they play not just an album, but in no particular order they play lots from both "Dub Side" and "Radiodread". They were awsome! The singer is really funny to watch and the "Dub Side" stuff is worth it alone.

Of course you should book them. And it looks like "Duran Duran Duran" is opening for some of the Ontario shows, so you should try for them as well (it's mostly the same guys, but doing covers of Tenacious D and stuff).

I have had SOCAN fuckwads track me down the day of a show, where I was already losing buckets of money (Garth Hudson is the one I'm thinking of), for their fee. Like Robbie fuÇking Robertson needs another payday. Garth needed, well he got, the payday.

As far as I know and have experienced, the SOCAN fuckwads pay the artist who perform their own songs and if the artist is playing a cover, the royalties go to the songwriter of that cover. This actually allows bands like Jimmy Swift, Grand Theft Bus, Slammin Jack, BNB, etc..... to get paid a bit at the end of a tour for playing their own songs. And for this reason as well, it should be fine for bands to play covers. Some of the SOCAN money comes from bar owners and promoters paying their SOCAN fees. This is not a bad thing.

If he actually comes.... It looks like it's gonna be the first two weekends of December. He'll probably play two shows in Van (a week apart), and hopefully a few elsewhere.

Sarah... Hope to see you when you come to town.

I bought it at the show in Vancouver for $20cdn. Then they were selling it the next day in Seattle for $20us. I was a happy shopper. The quality of the DVD is super clear. It was a great buy.

yay moe.!

Wow, bringing out the old school eh? Makes you think how lucky we were to have access to that stage and so many excited folks that early in our career. Hey Jeff, I'm not too sure if you have this as well, but I also have an old VHS called "A Valentines Function" if you're interested for your archive. I have tonnes of other stuff to, but we may have to wait another 5 or 10 years for that. :))

Finally..... My singing debut (and the end of a career). Thanks Jeff, My mom's been asking for this for years.

Mayor of Moe.ville? That's funny. That reminds me of a town I've spent lots of time in out west. "South Jacton". It's more of a suburb, but you get the picture. We also have a mayor (actually the second official) who was elected last Saturday.

I saw the two moe. shows after moe.down. They Kick ass!
