Two tickets in the tapers' section, please. Aloha, Brad

Saturday, July 26, according to http://www.zaphodbeeblebrox.com/calendar/index.php?m=07&y=2008 The Magnificent Butchers and Holy Cobra are also on the bill. Aloha, Brad

I'm thinking of having dinner there both Saturday and Sunday, so any opinions (positive or negative) about the food vendors would be appreciated. (I did a scan of them yesterday, and noticed one place selling smoked meat sandwiches, and one or two places doing pulled pork sandwiches, so will probably go with one of those, barring anyone's bad reviews of them, or extremely good reviews of other vendors.) Aloha, Brad

I'm kind of hoping it'll be The Tummies. Aloha, Brad

Thanks for the tip! Like phorbesie' date=' I find the other options very disgusting. [/quote'] And if they let you walk out/around with the can, we now the best brand to try to bring in... Aloha, Brad

Is that tent open to all festival-goers, or is it a gold-circle-only kind of thing? Aloha, Brad

So what are people excited for tonight? Sonny Landreth (7:15pm, River Stage) should be a blast, and I'm interested in seeing what Dave Bidini Band (7:45pm, Black Sheep Stage) is like. If I stay until/path 9:30pm, I'd like to check out Feist (Bank of America Stage) and Allen Toussaint (Roots Stage), too, but I'll want to save energy for Saturday. Aloha, Brad

According to http://www.ottawabluesfest.ca/en/index.php?page=mvyradio I clicked on the link, and was taking to http://mvyradio.com/music_info/ottawa_bluesfest_2008.php where they currently have a few things to listen, but only one performance, that of Back Door Slam. Aloha, Brad

The Rainbow, which is down in the Byward Market, a little ways from where Blues Fest is this year, has It's listed in their calendar as a blues fest after-party, going from 9pm to 1am. Aloha, Brad

[color:purple]Fergie vs. Franti vs. Tokyo Police Club! As much as I want to see Black Crowes, they start at the same time as Seun Kuti & Egypt 80, which is what I'll be seeing. Aloha, Brad

I think I'll be there for a bit: he's on the Black Sheep Stage at 8:00pm (after People Project at 6:30pm), and TV On The Radio is the Rogers Stage at 8;15pm, so I'll give him a chance. There's a recording of one of his shows at http://www.archive.org/details/JoseGonzalezMusic Aloha, Brad

Krispy Kreme Bacon Cheeseburgers Aloha, Brad

Do you have eggs and small amounts of leftover stuff (cheese, deli meat, tomatoes, peppers, etc.)? If so, an omelette can work really well (Alton Brown terms this kind of dish "refrigerator velcro")...day-glo orange sliced cheese, however, is not recommended... Aloha, Brad

According to http://www.ottawabluesfest.ca/en/index.php?page=lastminutechanges I just checked http://www.jakobdylan.com/ and it still has a full set of tour dates, including Ottawa. Aloha, Brad

Oh, that's fine, provided you're not having a conversation with the cheeseburger or donut. If you are, you have far more serious problems than just being inattentive while behind the wheel. Aloha, Brad

Diesel Dog - Year Of The Dog Aloha, Brad

Note that Bronze Pass holders have to pay extra ($15) tonight. I'm going to be at Avant-Garde Bar tonight, for Normal Love and Wellman/Essoudry. http://www.jambands.ca/sanctuary/showtopic.php?tid/247688/ Aloha, Brad

Happy Day, Schwa.! Aloha, Brad

Who, besides me, is going to be there for Brad Mehldau tonight? Aloha, Brad
