Saw both of youse guys on the big screen at one point.

I will say that was a great time in the tent last night but I still wish it was gone.

Wolf Parade - Expo 86

I continue to have nothing but hate for the Black Sheep TENT. They totally killed one of the best things they had going. I predict it will not be back next year.

Islands are playing tonight? Did they just get added or did I totally space on it?

Good to know! As they say, living well is the best revenge. Show him how much this *doesn't* affect you and that might be enough for him to get the point. He probably likes getting a rise out of you. Deny him that pleasure.

Don't hurt the plants! They have nothing to do with this.

For anyone that doesn't know, they'll be doing the Trick of the Tail tour. Sadly, no Hogweed.

Try doing Bluesfest with a day job!

What's his beef with your fence?

Yes that's him Brad! Interesting that he's also an actor because he looked so damn familiar. I must have seen him in something. Acting Credits

You don't like roots music man?! I wasn't complaining about the raunch btw, just thought it was worth mentioning.

Steve Dawson’s Mississippi Sheiks Project is the find of Bluesfest for me so far. The Mississippi Sheiks were around in the '30s and are most famous for writing the song Sittin' On Top Of The World. The band featured guests Alvin Youngblood Hart, Del Ray and Jim Burns (?). High quality, "real deal" kind of stuff. I can't think of anyone on this board that wouldn't love this band. They are at the Barney Danson Theatre tonight at 9 PM. Also had my first Bluesfest bizarro moment when I accidently caught the end of Aterciopelados in the Black Sheep Tent. They are a rock band from Colombia. I think ALL the local Colombians were there having their own little party, completely oblivious to the Arcade Fires of the world. Outside of the fact that we were under a BIG UGLY TENT IN THE MIDDLE OF SUMMER the atmosphere was great and the music was intense. I love Bluesfest for this kind of stuff. Also caught a bit of the comedy on the big screen outside the tent. Not a bad way to kill some time in between bands really. Don't bring your kids around though, it was incredibly raunchy. But yeah, that tent fucking sucks. Worst idea ever.

Yes! Thank you very much!!

I love that Steinbrenner's legacy is his fictional character in Seinfeld. RIP. I hate the Yankees but now feel retroactively happy about them winning the championship last season.

Webb was the man of the match. The better team won. Always hate to see a side lose in a game as big as this.

Agree on Di Jong but better for the match that Webb used a ton of discretion on that one. Maybe not the best half but the sheer magnitude of the situation is compelling.

Ticket info: http://www.ottawabluesfest.ca/ticketinfo I'd be really surprised if tonight is sold out.

He could have said no to the TV special.

Mock-up of Spurs home jersey for next season. A big improvement I think.

There was a Ratdog show in 2003 I believe, as well as Halloween 2005.

And it's not like Weir hasn't played Toronto semi-recently with Ratdog.

I thought this was an unnecessary dig at the end of the review:

Disgusting.

I discovered that you can buy CANS of the Lemon Tea beer at The Winery tent near the west entrance. At $6.50 they are also your best bang for the buck.
