I've got no interest in these gigs either.. and it blows me away that they are doing these as parking lot gigs inside heated tents.

One thing I have noticed though is that The Thirsty Toad is really trying to market itself to a larger touring band (as supposed to local bands). That's great if they can get the bodies out to support it. Ottawa needs more rooms to bring in bigger bands.

so.. I just got an email from The Thirsty Toad today and in it they were advertising the following gigs:

Storm Large of Rock Star: Supernova @ The Thirsty Toad - Oct 21

Ryan Star of Rock Star: Supernova @ The Thirsty Toad - Nov 4

Lukas Rossi, Gilby Clarke & Dilana @ The Thirsty Toad - Nov 11

I just received this covert photo of what appears to be bradm's costume:

yeah.. that's not much disk space at all in the grand scheme of things.. but depending on what you are trying to do you can't beat the price

www.doteasy.com is cheap and Canadian.

depending on what you want they've got a great basic package. If you own your domain name already you pay an initial fee (I think it's $40.00) to set up the DNS, but after that it's free.. and ad free as well!

You get 10 email addresses, 100mb of disk space, 1gb/month data transfer and full support.

It's not exciting feature wise but depending on what you need it may be perfect.

You can get the same deal but purchase your domain through doteasy.com and only pay the domain renewal each year.

I'm going to add:

Jambands.ca Hallowe'en Party with Inglewood Jack, The SoulJazz Orchestra and The Tad Hackish Band to that list.

When: Saturday, Oct 28th

Where: The Bytowne Tavern, 292 Elgin Street

sorry.. the Holiday after next

I wish sometimes I were independently wealthy so I could spend all sorts of time going from event to event like this to challenge these people - just so that they would have someone around who challenged them and forced them to account for what they say.

But I'd probably get branded an agent of the devil and kicked out (or kicked in).

Just starting to get in the mood for the upcoming holiday

don't feel guitly about Dred Zepplin Brad... that album is killer!

the first Justin Timberlake album was killer (rumour has it it was written for Michael Jackson but his ego got in the way and he went with some other producer/songwritter).. I wouldn't be surprised if his latest (JT that is) album is good too.

of course when I say good I mean good in that sugar candy pop kinda way

you know I'm really mixed about this...

James Brown is in my top 5 bands/artists of all time.. I could spend the rest of the day talking about the genius that is James Brown...

BUT...

he lost it way back in the early 80s. You could even argue that he lost it back in the late 70s.. he was certainly over his prime at any rate.

I saw him when he came to bluesfest back in 200 I think it was. I just get sad seeing him now, knowing what he used to be and seeing how pathetic he is now.

That being said, he still has one hot bloody band, so that alone could be worth admission.

It's hard for me.. I don't know if I'll go to this gig... there are really times when I wish I could hop into a time machine and catch him back in circa 1971... that would have been amazing!!

I'd love to hear her throw out the pop music conventions she's been working under and put a record out with someone like Brian Eno or Steve Lillywhite...

I love disco in all it's absurd glory!

I also love that song "Come On Over" By Christina Aguilera

Ya know.. if she didn't oversign as much as she does she'd be killer. She's got talent, she just needs to pull on the reins a bit.

All Guns Blazing from the album Painkiller by Judas Priest, for today is Power Metal Fridays!

(also in the lineup include Iron Maiden, 3 Inches of Blood, Helloween, Hammerfall, Dio, DragonForce, Dragonland, Demons & Wizards and Manowar)

heya Deeps.. thanks for the props and it was great to see you guys again (as usual).

Always fun playing with you guys and you sounded awesome as expected.

Too bad about the small audience, but thanks again to those who came out. Can't wait until next time!
