All the best to you and yours, Dave. Aloha, Brad

I ordered them through TicketsNow, and had them delivered via regular mail. Aloha, Brad

My Albany tickets arrived today! Aloha, Brad

I picked up a six-pack of at my local LCBO and really like it. The label describes it as an "almost pale ale", and with a name of "Hoptical Illusion", the two phrases work well together: it's malty but not overly so, and nicely hoppy, but not crazily hoppy like some American IPAs. Aloha, Brad

There are some videos from the show (Stash, You Can Call Me Al, Echoes) available at http://www.jambase.com/Articles/20293/moe.-Halloween-Setlist-and-Vids-Phish-%3E-Floyd-%3E-Dead-%3E-Cyrus Aloha, Brad

I was kind of wondering if time flows just a little more slowly at Hot Box Cafe, and November 2 won't actually occur there until this weekend. Aloha, Brad

This Saturday is Nov. 7th. Aloha, Brad

One of them is The Imperial Pub. Aloha, Brad

I'm heading out tonight to see Mandrake Root at The Atomic Rooster on Bank St. tonight. Is anyone else interested? It's a free show, with a 9:30pm start. Aloha, Brad

:thumbup: Aloha, Brad

I also checked http://www.myspace.com/therespectablesmusic and they say they're in Alberta today. They'll be in Montreal, opening for Grady, at Cabaret Juste Pour Rire on Monday. Aloha, Brad

The Respectables are listed in the "block" ad for the show on the main Mavericks web page, but in the calendar entry for Oct. 30, it says Grady / Domenica / Acres. As well, http://www.shadygrady.net says Domenica is (also) on the bill, with no mention of The Respectables. Aloha, Brad

http://www.jambands.ca/sanctuary/showtopic.php?tid/254422/ Well, the rain's slacked off a bit, and I've found my ear plugs, so I'm planning on heading to Mavericks to see what promises to be a pretty loud heavy triple-bill. Is anyone else interested? Aloha, Brad

Octuplet mom to dress as pregnant nun for Halloween Aloha, Brad

http://www.jambands.ca/sanctuary/showtopic.php?tid/254540/ Let there be lunch! The room isn't licensed, but the chance to see Wayne Eagles, Jesse Stewart, and Stu Watkins perform up close and personal during daylight hours should make for a fun show. Aloha, Brad

My recording of the Thursday, October 29, 2009 show by The Release at Mercury Lounge in Ottawa, ON is now available for download: http://www.archive.org/details/release2009-10-29.superlux.flac16 Enjoy! Aloha, Brad

That's The Monty Python Matching Tie and Handkerchief record. Aloha, Brad

NQ Arbuckle (along with Ruth Minikin) is at The Black Sheep Inn in Wakefield, QC this Saturday, Oct. 31. Aloha, Brad

Happy Day, Sharon! Aloha, Brad

http://www.jambands.ca/sanctuary/showtopic.php?tid/253991/ I saw these guys when they played in Ottawa a couple of weeks ago http://www.archive.org/details/release2009-10-14.superlux.flac16 and had a ball. Their stuff is funky, fun, has instruments you don't often seen in clubs (e.g., flute), and yes, they openly and proudly refer to themselves as a "jamband" (and they're one that plays all-original music). I'm not sure of the exact timing for the show, but Mercury usually starts and ends bands early, so I'm guessing the doors will be at 7pm, with the band starting around 8pm. Is anyone else interested in this? Aloha, Brad

There's a torrent of a recording of it up now: http://bt.etree.org/details.php?id=529358 Aloha, Brad
