  1. despite the race having run its course, im still looking forward to Chelsea/United this aft, kicking off in bout 1 1/2 hours. 3pm EST
  2. 3 cheers for a good dude. nice to see you this week, shain, you should be very proud of the way the AlliesJourney benefit went. Everyone put in a lot of effort, and its nice to see a positive result. A lot of people take their gifts and talents for granted, nice to see you using yours for good things. You never cease to amaze me, buddy, well done. see you for North by Northeast. June 6 right?
  3. i loved Jukejoint. thanks for the info, Mark, ill have to check out the Molasses Run. hooray for less than 2 weeks.
  4. still, not believing it. we'll see this when we see actual democracy in China, methinks.
  5. her last movie sucked. weak plot' date=' terrible cinematography. [color:red']happy ending though. was she brutally killed??? for this question, one should see the remake of "House of Wax".
  6. were it not for Come together, Id be there. nice gig though, Marky.
  7. i sure did. post here when next they play, im gonna try to be there.
  8. so - a quick, top-of-my-head review. opening band, The Rest, were awesome. The coolest thing about them may have been the fact that there was a Florida-based band, also called The Rest, who recently broke up, and sent these guys all of there merch, just for kicks. I just thought that was a really cool thing to do, and nice that these guys got to reap the benefits. As for their set, well, if you like the Arcade Fire, you'll dig em. Pretty much a clone, with a singer who sounded quite a lot like Win, and a female cellist, amongst a group of 7 members. I like the Arcade Fire a lot, and so these guys blew me away. Id see em again, given the chance. Now, Amy Millan. Del, if yer out there, you shoulda been there. I cant really give an exact setlist, but this at least gets the point across. -Losing You (Amy solo Acoustic) -Stars Tune (Amy solo Acoustic, Could have been "Heart", contained a line about wrapping my heart in a blanket) -Amy introduces band, The Dirty Strangers -Ruby II -Hard Hearted -Baby I - um, i know there was something in here..... -He Brings Out The Whiskey -um, something here too. - Skinny Boy no encore. The acoustic opener of Losing You was awesome, its such a beautiful tune that got a nice facelift with such a stripping-down. I know ive heard the Stars Tune, but Im just not that familiar with pre-SYOFire Stars. The full band (partly made up of Michael Bryant (sp?) of Paso Mino on keys and Darcy Yates from the New Kings on bass, plus other folks whose names i didnt get but who played drums, guitar, and lap steel)joined at this point, and we got the alt-twangy style that Honey From the Tombs was all about. short set, but it seems like Amy's always are. Skinny Boy was a great closer, with a good spacey instrumental outro. Afraid ive got no more time, so thats it, but perhaps someone will post a review and proper setlist at arts-crafts.ca And, once again, Brodie, a thousand thanks, a great night indeed. Margaret, thanks for coming, i had a blast.
  9. that was a fantastic show. Thanks, Brodie, for putting on a great show. Marge, always a delight, thanks for coming. review to follow, when time permits post-work. Carrie, Alexis, sorry didnt work out, you ladies missed a good one.
  10. you are a wise fellow. cant remember ever cheering for Milan before. and yes, despite the big Blue disappointment, it could certainly be argued that along with Barca, AC and L'Poo really are the top of Europe. They just know how to win @ Champions.
  11. according to pollstar.com 10.27.2007 nothing on ticketmaster.ca yet
  12. the Opera House can kiss my ass.
  13. favourite as in nightmare? nope, favourite as in i really like the venue, i get to see bands i enjoy at a good price.
  14. if you rob a bank, manage to get away and bury the loot, then get caught, perhaps a sensational trial would bring the fame. then, 8-10 years later, you get out of prison and go dig up the money. presto, rich and famous. good luck. otherwise, how about inventing something people really need, but havent thought of yet? a thermos type thing for urine tests for example, so that theres no change in temperature to make certain the sample is in tip top shape. That might work.
  15. son of a #@%$! oh well, the season of mediocrity continues.
  16. alexis - myself, Marge, and Carrie will see you there.
