thatpatguy Posted August 19, 2004 Report Share Posted August 19, 2004 Ontario unfortunately.. no offense to the k-town crew, but I'd rather it be Jamaica anyway.. the r&b band I play in (The Crowd) has got two gigs at the Kingston blues festival (sorry.. the " Limestone City Blues Festival") Anyway.. one of our gigs is at this club called Stages.. has anyone been there? is it a good room? nice and big? we are a big band so we need lots of room. any info I could get on the place would be great. I'm really pumped to be playing the Kingston bluesfest.. I love Kingston and have always found it to be a killer live music town Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Douglas Posted August 19, 2004 Report Share Posted August 19, 2004 It's typically used as a dance club...or at least it was when I was in Kingston. Lots of students. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamH Posted August 19, 2004 Report Share Posted August 19, 2004 Stages is kind of like The Palace in Guelph. Everyone has at least one story of getting fricking hosed there and sleeping with a fat chick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave-O Posted August 19, 2004 Report Share Posted August 19, 2004 Huge venue, Pat. I played my first bar "gig" there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatpatguy Posted August 19, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2004 cool.. I'm hoping we'll get a more blues/live music oriented crowd for our gig.. but if the bluesfest is on and that's an official club I'm sure it won't be the standard frat boy out for a ripper kinda night.. but we'll see how was you gig there Dave-O?

dave-O Posted August 19, 2004 Report Share Posted August 19, 2004 Well Pat let's see... it was 1991, I was 15, we played some originals and Kim Mitchell's "Rock N Roll Duty" en route to winning a battle of the bands, won some recording time. I'd say it was the pinnacle of my music career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
