  1. Maybe the doctors should offer to kill him instead?
  2. I knew you would bring that up. One joke does not make me obsessed.
  3. Dude, you keep saying that and it's so fucking bullshit. We've moved on and are waiting for you to do the same.
  4. That's pretty harsh dude. You can count me out of the next No Buds For Bob show.
  5. Welcome to the system. It really, really sucks.
  6. Walked by this place again on Sunday. If they're not open yet, they look like they will be any day now. Maybe they just aren't open on Sunday. Looks very promising... "take-out Mexican".
  7. Oh yeah, full cover after midnight sucked but I figured the bands deserved it. I didn't see any posters either, which is why I brought it up. I travel the downtown core on a daily basis and usually see Mavericks gig posters all over the place.
  8. Leafs/Habs/Sabres... fack off Hal!!
  9. Take care Luke, wherever you are. Hoping for nothing but the best out of this very sad situation. Thanks for the update Pete.
  10. Sure, that's how pinned topics are supposed to work. What I and some others are saying is that pinned topics simply do not draw out attention. Call me dense but it's true.

    Meet Mike Gravel

    Salon.com article: Don't worry, be Mike Gravel
  12. I like that no matter how many replies this thread gets, it's stuck below the line of pinned topics. Kind of like being just outside of the 8th playoff spot in the standings.
  13. Me too. Mooose put it well -- pinned topics become part of the advertising that I subconsciouly ignore.
  14. I liked the show. It was a short set, about 50 minutes, but I expected that. Lots of favourites were played: Casper the Friendly Ghost, Walking the Cow, Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Your Grieviance, Speeding Motorcycle, Devil Town and others. The band worked well with Johnston under the circumstances. I was amused by Daniel chain smoking in Zaphods before the show.
  15. Kinda dumb move on Starbucks part. I understand this woman's point of view -- I wouldn't want to purchase a cup of coffee that had the Lord's Prayer written on the side. But then Starbucks is already annoying for so many reasons.
  16. Some great tunes for those of us who showed up, thanks to the bands for coming out and ripping it up for us regardless. At least the tapes won't be chatty. That end of Rideau Street seems to be turning into a bit of a ghost town. And it doesn't feel too safe either. Saw a guy getting ready to hit his crack pipe on Friday night. University students went back home last weekend so that probably had an effect as well. And, I didn't see any advertising outside of this forum. The show wasn't even listed on Mavericks marquee until last night. Anyway, enough rambling about the turnout. The music was great and I'm glad to have been there. And yo! Thanks for the shooters phorbesie!

    BEER!!

    T-minus 30 minutes until my first beer!
  18. I hope I never see you at another show with a beer in your hand!! YES, I went there. For the record, never had a problem crossing into the USA. *knocks wood* The only time I've been treated less than human was by Canadian border guards.
  19. We have a mother in the office who breast feeds her baby... DURING MEETINGS!!
  20. Blame me, I titled the article. "Cheering for Encore Review" perhaps? "Concert Reflection"?
  21. The Black Crowes - Live, "Wiser Time"
  22. Brutal that Vancouver lost so many overtime games. I was really hoping they'd take out Anaheim. I think dave-o has it right.
