You either love em out of the gate or it takes a few shows to get into it. It took a few shows for me to like an entire set. They're really great players. Jazz Fusion greats in your local bar. That Kai Eckhardt is awesome...Trying to not comment about how they miss the mark for me most of the time...whoops. Worth checking out if you like that side of things. I'd see em again if I have the chance and there's nothing exciting happening that night. Definitely worth the ticket. Just hope that fareed stands up. Lazy fucker.

I don't think the Hulkamaniac wants anybody's hands on his daughter's ass. he looked very careful while touching the tooshy. I bet he made sure his kids ate their vitamins.

Get solid again, Trev. Your lungs aren't as transparent as they could be either in that x-ray. Hope you can get the best of both worlds there, Freeker. your freeloading acquaintance, .r.

I think another file format name is .3gp

Does anybody know how i can convert an .mpg or .wmv or .avi etc to .dcf so i can watch movies on my phone? I have a Sony Ericsson w810 any help is appreciated.

A good walk would be from Main street, down the alley between 7th and 8th to the park/community garden, down false creek and past Granville Island to Kitsilano Beach. then get back to UBC/Wreck. Also, a Sunset/English Bay beach through and around Stanley Park to Gastown.

Alright...If you're down at UBC you won't have much opportunity to see vancouver. It's a bit removed, but if you do plan to venture in I'd have to say that the West End is good for affordable meals. Samurai Sushi is great for huge $1 nigiri sushi and is pretty good all around. Almost across the street is Kadoya which is renowned for its large rolls. No it's not a party but you'll wish it was. If it's past 9:30 PM I emplor you to go nowhere else than Kisha Poppo and do the all you can eat. it's $12 but you have a decent menu to draw from. I am a huge fan of Salmon Kama and it's on the menu...great place to sit down. Robson street has a sushi joint called Asahi Ya (I think that's what it's called...right beside an indian joint) and the place always impressed me. Across the street from there (pretty much) is Tsunami Sushi which has the sushi bar with little boats...pay by plate. For Indian food, you could of course go to little India around Main and 49th, but if you're downtown then just go to Swagat (again on Davie but near Denman) and do the buffet...veg or not. Beers for $2.50 and the food's as good or better than india sweet. I really like the chai and although they have a buffet they have a menu. They're really nice there. English Bay beach is a great hangout as it's right beside sunset beach and inbetween False Creek and Stanley Park but it's not as great as Wreck, and across the water is Kitsilano which is another great hangout. Queen Elizabeth park (ontario between 33rd and 36th over to Cambie) has Disc Golf and pitch and Putt and you'd be within walking distance from Legendary Noodle house on Main Street (at king edward/25th) the park is really quite beautiful and is worth spending some time. If you're not into noodles then my favourite malaysian/singaporean restaurant in Vancouver is right there too. Hawker's Delight has loads of plates with or without meat. $6 will fill you with a meaty dish. $5 or less for veg. Everything is good but if in doubt get the Nasi Goreng. I'm a fan of the Lontong but the Mee Pok and Bee Hoon are good...Don't ask me what it is. there'llbe explanations on the wall. There are carribean, african and french hangouts all along Main street between King Edward and 33rd. South of 25th are loads of great hangouts and restaurants. A huge hit is Budgie's Burritos on Kingsway, on the block that it meets up with main Street. People rave about vancouver sushi and won ton but these things are the bomb. You'll spend about $7 but you'll have fallen in love. Far more addictive than the cheap potent crack at main and hastings. The buddhist garden can be researched at http://www.vancouverchinesegarden.com/ it's beautiful and a great escape from the graphic chinatown neighbourhood. If you do go to Chinatown, it's not really open at night time. Make sure to go during the day. You probably won't want to wear sandals down there. Gorilla Foods is a little hole in the wall on Richards Street downtown and has the best vegan take away in the city. It's south of hastings on the East side of the street. Speaking of which, it's pretty eye opening to see skid row. the entire area around Main and hastings is a sight to see. It's right near Chinatown. The If you want to do some shopping for outdoor geat, try Broadway street between Main and Cambie. Sure there's MEC but there's a whole lot of other places with awesome deals. The North Shore has loads of eco tourism. If you can make it up there get hiking. If you can make it to Squamish then hike the chief. I'm tubby and made it up there. It's pretty awesome to climb a mountain in an afternoon and make it back to the city to catch a show or hang out in a pub. Vancouver's not entirely friendly so don't expect people to make friends with you at a bar. Meet people but don't expect much. The Railway club is a great downtown hangout. Live music and flowing beer make a great combination. The Fairview Pub on Broadway is the one place I have been to the most. It's a good place for music. The Yale Hotel on Granville @ Drake is a super room. Sounds great and is the place to see blues legends. If you're going to Granville Island at night then the Backstage Lounge has a great vibe and is pretty much at the water. I quite like it. UBC has some great hangouts and you might not want to leave. Maybe something'll be happening at the Chan Centre or the Pit Pub... Commercial Drive has a great vibe and some even better pizza and cafes. Trout lake Park is a great place to relax for a few hours. There are so many parks and nice places to be in Metro Vancouver. Get a 10 pack of transit tickets. You'll save a few bucks. If you are travelling all day it might be worth a day pass...Sunday day pass riders can bring a guest for free. The system is of buses, the skytrain, and Seabus. Seabus ferries take 2 zone tickets before 6:30 during the week. You can upgrade at the terminal or chance it...but it's a hefty fine. North and West Vancouver are really nice. I suggest Lighthouse Park in West Vancouver for some beautiful old Growth. Try to print out a tide schedule so you can time a better exploration of the park...and to not get caught in the water. Stanley Park is always a favourite. I suggest you check out the swingset at Second Beach. Bike rentals on Denman around Georgia...tandem bikes in stanley park? Loads of great things to do. Farmers' Markets at Trout lake and Nelson Park (downtown) on Saturdays, and at Nat Bailey Stadium on Wednesday evenings. If you're looking for disc golf close to UBC then hit up Quilchena Park and the Jericho course on 4th near the beach. You might want to go to the Upstream Discussion Board at www.upstreamentertainment.com and see if anyone wants to play...also a great place to look into local jammy shows. Kitsilano is the closest shopping district to UBC that I can think of. Nice place to check out. Seigel's Bagels is amazing. Get the rugoleh. Thank me later. If you want to go to a mall then either go to Metrotown on kingsway (on the skytrain) or go to Robson Street...it's essentially got all the stores in a mall but they are all seperate buildings. very touristy. Granville street is Vancouver's 'entertainment district' Bars, Clubs, and the Commodore Ballroom. the Pacific Centre Mall is on Granville street and has Skytrain access gastown is another popular locale...the Old Spaghetti Factory is a great place for run of the mill pasta dinners. $15 for the whole spread. I like the spaghetti a la homer...it's got browned butter sauce with some fancy salty cheese. awesome. the waterfront has Canada Place. Good place to see an IMAX movie and look through binoculars. Bon's off Broadway is a great place for greasy $3 all day breakfast...it's close to trout lake and sorta close to the drive. It's on Nanaimo at 9th (broadway) MAY 29 - SEPTEMBER 30 KRAZY! The Delirious World of Anime + Comics + Video Games + Art The first major presentation to bring the worlds of contemporary comics, anime, manga, cartoons, graphic novels and video games together, KRAZY!

not yet Pablo. I think it's a cool little unit. I'm pro analog audio. Glad it's still on the scene.

they emailed me today and told me there was one left. timing is everything. you're screwed it seems. But maybe not if tree troll has anything to do with it.

Thanks for the Little Phatty ®

I'm glad that there are so many comic book movies. I hope they redo Frank Miller's 'the Dark Knight returns' - a 60 year old batman and a young female robin... A silver surfer movie not on the toes of the Fantastic Four would be awesome too... SHIELD...for THOR for me... There are so many awesome comic book heroes and villains and so many done to shame. Iron Man on my Birthday. Cool suprise.

"What's wrong with bartering a feature for FREE rights to use a song on an ad sponsored website? Nothing, if you're an up and coming band that is looking for a little exposure. In this instance it's a case of greedy grabby hands trying to feed the dying marketing beast." Shouldn't NPR - America's public radio already have an article about the Grateful Dead? they are rather culturally important. Up and coming or not that shouldn't really matter. Journalism ultimitely shouldn't just be seen as marketing and promo. It is only FAIR that NPR do a piece on the Grateful dead for free rights to their music that would be a great thing for an intern to spearhead...and exactly the kind of initiative that would demand NPR have beefier intern program, giving people a great foot in the door and something great for their experience, helping foster community...

eat your vitamins, kids!

You could probably find a better one but stick with this for now. I haven't changed mine yet. I kinda like being a joystick. Anybody wanna play some zaxxon?

I think that a deposit would make musicians show up... I'm a bit suprised though...don't performers get paid to play a festival?

Here's a link... Healing Beats I'm not going to spend a lot of time on this, as since I've found some I should probably use them, but first I'm still curious about dangers. I haven't found anything other than the concern that I'll unearth some deeply rooted dysfunction that my brain will work out over time. I also found a program to make my own but want to figure out how to control my creations...

nip this thread in the bud? So where's that sir-mix-alot video... Those brits sure like their birds.

Hey folks. Does anybody know much about sound therapy? There are a bunch of programs out there to train/exercise your brain to freely communicate as a whole (or so they tout themselves as such) and I am curious if anybody's ever used any of them. they kind of remind me of that episode of Inspector Gadget where CLAW controls this record company to hypnotize the world and turn everyone into his slaves. Although I don't really think they're as powerful as that, I presume that it's some serious stuff. I remember a Phish show that Giggles has/d on tape that contained 'the vibrations of life' and that touched on some similar principles. Anybody have any places of interest for me online?

New Rider! I'm glad to know that I'm welcome on your sofa if I can make the move! I just have to Psych myself up for drinkin' with you and Merle...

So what's happening around your town for Canada Day weekend? I for one probably won't be 'celebrating' much until then. My May 2-4 will probably be very low-key. I'm curious if anyone's looking forward to anything in particular for their Canada Day. Ottawa's generally a given...but is anything particularly big happening? What's going on in Toronto? A city that big is bound to have lots of fun. Anything in Vancouver? Calgary? Halifax? How are we celebrating? It feels early but it's still fairly close.

Maybe for Diabetes, but not for, say warts and athlete's foot or hayfever, stomach ulcers, or hangnail infections and oral health... Anyhow, I don't want to take this thread over any more. The situation may not occur, but it's entirely possible and in the future it could be entirely probable. the point's been made, The Luscious BradM countered my point, but not necessarily for the entire discussion. let's hope nobody's been silenced here other than myself (for now)

How on earth did Brantford ever get to be so appealing? I've seen a bunch of listings for shows there over the past few years. Almost makes me want to move there. Anybody have a job and comfy sofa for me?
