Get him drunk' date=' feed him a quarter of fungus, offer him enough cash and I might bet on that![/quote'] Or tell him it's take-out from Denny's.

I promised Owen I'd do a promo write-up of the Purple Hill Wavelength show. I may go too. Should be a great one.

I saw Artie on Conan a month or two ago. All he talked about was drugs. It was a really unfunny and uncomfortable interview, so none of this surprises me. But the big question is, I hope he's back on Rescue Me.

Entertaining game for the most part, other than the result. Refs let 'em play too. Far better game than that dreary Sens-Pens game.

Does your quitting include hippy lettuce? If not, you haven't quit smoking.

I'm not 100% sure he died of flesh-eating disease, but that's what my friends and I were told at the time. It's not something I tried to verify though: "Hey, how did your brother die?" BTW, best whiskey-sours in the city.

I went to Ryerson for RTA and graduated in 1994. I went to the Library almost every week for almost a decade and still try to pop in once a year - I live in the east end. I remember the two brothers that ran the place along with their dad (the one brother died of, I believe, flesh-eating disease back in the late 90's). I'm working night shifts this weekend, but I may walk by on my lunch break.

As long as the upstairs reamins the same. It's perfect. Downstairs always needed some work, so I gotta check it out soon.

I haven't been in the Library for a couple of years. Don't tell me they've done a little renovating?

For those that plan on going, there's two parts to the Imperial/Library Pub: upstairs and main floor. I believe this gig is in the main floor pub, correct?

Gaudin isn't a good pitcher. If the Jays make him work some more, they will win the game. A.J. doesn't have his off-speed pitches working tonight.

I can't cheer for a team that has Hossa on it, so Go Sens Go!

The old uniforms (including the retro whites) look like pyjamas, but oddly enough, the jersey looks good on the street.

Couldn't hit free-throws when the pressure is on along with poor shot selections down the stretch and into overtime did Memphis State in. I've always disliked Bobby Packer because of his distain for the Orangemen, but I've really grown to hate his constant self-rightous blathering throughout this tournament.

Well, Tampa Bay should draft him. The Leafs have the #7 pick, so look for them to draft some Swiss player no one's ever heard of.

I think they over-book for every band, just some get better turnouts. It looks like the producers were caught off-guard by the MMJ turnout and may be adjusting booking/guest policy on the fly.

I was in my mid 20's when Oasis started making noise back in 94. Their fanbase setup on the "alternative" fence along with other bands of their ilk like the Smashing Pumpkins and Blur. I'm not shocked that Oasis fans were unreceptive to the Crowes. It has a lot to do with the battle between the "hip" alternative scene vs dinosaur rock that absofuckinglutely took place in the 90's until the end of that decade. Remember when Oasis was on the bill with Neil Young in Toronto back in the 90's and 102.1 The Edge never mentioned Neil in their promotions?

I know lots of Oasis fans, and some are even good people.

Yes, especially for a network that is getting its feet wet for filming live concerts.

I'm more curious than anything. I don't care either way.

[color:purple]very original' date=' jaimoe[/color'] so what's your beef with oasis crowds and fans then? people yell out for bryan adams' tunes at ryan adams headliner shows. I wasn't trying to be funny. I know it's an old and unfunny joke. Do you honestly think Ryan will get the same level of Bryan shout-outs opening for Oasis?

I wonder how long it will take into Ryan's set for the first Oasis fan to yell out requests for Bryan Adams songs? I'm betting song #1. Any takers?

Overbooking an audience is playing it smart. All shows do it, especially programs like Conan and Leno and their ilk. It's pretty pathetic seeing empty seats at a live TV show.

Although AD, Heston lived and worked through the McCarthism era, early civil rights movement and the Cold War, so I think selecting controversial films and playing controversial characters set him apart from fellow actors and directors that played it safe.

I'd like to add that most people bring one guest, which isn't included in the spot total.
