  1. One of the best music line ups in ctmf history, I'd venture. Friday night the Fatties kicked things off really nice! I great way to get everyone warmed up for the weekend! I was mainly looking forward to seeing Battleship Ethel. I made sure that I was fully prepared for their show on Friday night. They did not disappoint either! The intensity coming from that corner of the saloon was incredible! They heavier they played, the more soothing it was on my mind.. I was in heaven! I can't wait to see them play again. There were a lot of people video.. perhaps some clips will surface. Diesel Dog in the saloon after Battleship Ethel was just the icing on the cake.. or maybe it was the cherry on top.. either way, they are one of my favourite bands and Friday night in the saloon rocked!! Too bad i didn't see buddy in the back field being a dick.. buddy and I were walking all around back there and could have shut that lunatic up good! (yeah, I'm a tough guy! ) On Satrurday afternoon I made it down in time to catch the last two minutes or so of Electroluminesent. One man guitar loopy type deal. And then..... BA Johnson!! This guy is from Hamilton and it frickin showed!! What a complete nut! He played prearranged beats, which he pretended to play on his Casio he had set up. He played acoustic guitar and he played the crowd!! When he wasn't freaking random members of the audience, he was literally pouring beer, two at a time, in the general vicinity of his mouth, coating the hairy bare front of himself and then doing the worm on the dirt floor of the tent. He had the aduience absolutely howling with his totally mad antics. Yikes! What else.. Woodhands were good.. United Steel Workers... they were good. Pulled out of ghosttown early Sunday afternoon.. Great job putting this together Mark and all involved. Friday night's entertainment was alone worth the price of admission. Wonderful to meet up with a whole bunch of incredible friends and have a total blast! May 2-4 cannot come soon enough!
  2. Congratulations guys.. all the best!
  3. Well, that is too bad that they are getting less and less impressive. I just loved them the first time they placed TO. It does, however, make it easier to deal with that I finally decided it was too much of a hassle to head to the show last night. Now time to start enjoying my planned 'sick' day! woo hoo.
  4. that's cool! I remember seeing a tree house on here that was actually made from a tree and it was huge! Anyone remember that?
  5. Hire me and quit you're worrying!
  6. Good luck with the show.. Maybe you should consider settting up a paypal acct for folks who won't be making it out but would like to suppport the cause.
