TheGoodRev Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 [ahem] Dude I snoozed on the Lee's tickets and the show is apparently stone cold sold (out), leaving your friend the Reverend out in the cold (as it were). I'm coming into town anyway, though; I've gone to see the JP at Lee's before without tickets, both times I didn't have to hang around long for a single to pop up. I'm going with a couple other people and they both have tickets, so I'm banking on that single. That's me, but my hair is longer these days, tied back. If you see me hanging out outside, come say hi.

bONES Posted January 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 haha that's a GREAT pic Rev i'll definately look for you man. we seem to share the same taste in great music. i've had an extra this entire time, but layed it on POG just yesterday. He backed out of going for beers with me last night due to a cold, but swears he's in for tonight! If not, it's all yours brother. that'd be me, but i now have short hair and a shorter beard if you get inside just look for the guy given'r to Cuff the Duke :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGoodRev Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 Oh boy, it's a freakin BLIZZARD in the Hammer! I might not make it over there after all, y'all, seeing as the Fat Cats' appearance at the Casbah tonight promises to be a lot of fun for a lot less hassle. Nothing written in stone yet, but I'll let y'all know. I have tickets to see the Plaskett Monday in Hamilton and next Saturday at the Horseshoe, so I'm not THAT disappointed.

(new tune) The Trouble and the Truth i could be missing one or two in there Plaskett was also really good! i look forward to next Saturdays show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bONES Posted January 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2005 where are they playing next week Bones? The Horseshoe with James McKenty & The Spades opening up! You should REALLY join us phunkyB but last nights show was SOLD OUT so you may want to pick up tix this weekend (Rotate This is open today) The Shoe is smaller than Lee's so i expect next Saturdays show to sell out as well. I am hosting a pot-luck dinner with treats and bevy's before hand ALL are welcome! Plaskett opened with a rockin' Work out Fine ...dang i love that tune POG is wicked by the way. I love going to shows with that guy. Everytime i'm caught up in the music to the degree where i feel like i could explode with grooviness POG will turn to me and give me the greatest "this is the sh!t smile"... who feels it knows it POG = both :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PassedOutGuy Posted January 23, 2005 Report Share Posted January 23, 2005 hey brother thanks for another great night... too good a time... too bad we didnt keep that spot up front for JPE... Lee's Palace was busting... easily 500 people there I would guess... its just not a great club for trying to move around, get to and from the bar etc... great music great friends great times!

aromatherapy Posted January 23, 2005 Report Share Posted January 23, 2005 dude! that makes me blue. might be worth it to check around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoodRev Posted January 23, 2005 Report Share Posted January 23, 2005 Well it was sh!tty because I'm somewhat of a completist, but I didn't make the show. Glad to hear it was awesome. I've seen the JPE probably about 5 times (with two more coming this week) but I have a serious music OCD issue where if I have one album by a band, I have to have them all; if I see one show in a run, I have to see them all. Anyway the weather here was so extremely sh!tty yesterday that we couldn't even get it together to walk over to the Casbah. If the sidewalks had been plowed we would have thought about it... Anyway, as for Horseshoe tickets, I grabbed mine Friday morning here: http://www.maplemusic.com/dept.asp?dept_id=1623 but they appear to be sold out now. Rotate This has been sold out for weeks apparently. I have to say, if you're intent on coming out, I have gone to more than one sold-out JPE show at Lee's without tickets and have always gotten in. It's not typically a heavily scalped show but people just seem to have extras. If you feel like lining up outside the Horseshoe a couple hours before their set, I'm sure you'll get in. You could also come to the Casbah tomorrow night, I don't think that show is sold out yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guigsy Posted January 23, 2005 Report Share Posted January 23, 2005 hey, so, apparently ian mcgettigan was playing bass with plaskett at the ottawa show... can anyone confirm for me that he played at the toronto show, too? and that, god willing, he's on for the whole tour and i'll get to see that fu©ker slam down in london???

TheGoodRev Posted January 24, 2005 Report Share Posted January 24, 2005 Dude, McGettigan has been on board for almost a year now. Tim Brennan got some gig overseas (or so I heard) and set sail for England, and McGettigan marched right in. I saw him play on the last tour too. Hamilton tonight, can't wait.

guigsy Posted January 24, 2005 Report Share Posted January 24, 2005 awesome!! the last time they were in london they still had brennan... saw mcgettigan with the dears last year in london right before they took their break and was hoping he'd jump on again with plaskett... good news!

bONES Posted January 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2005 i was just flipping through the truthfully truthfully cd booklet. There's a picture of mcgettigan in there, yet it lists Brennan as the bass player on the cd. Have a great time tonight everyone. A question about this cd. Moose has had it for sometime now and her copy is what turned me on to Plaskett. The truthfully truthfully cd she has is a double (one red, one black). I picked it up at the Lee's show and it was only one cd!? Twelve songs on it. Has it been shortened in regards to the number of tunes on it? or did they just release it again on one disc this time?

bONES Posted January 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2005 I am hosting a pot-luck dinner with treats and bevy's before hand ALL are welcome! Vegetarian come on by for 4:20 folks i also have lots of crash space for those who'd like a comfortable bed for the night after the show. Weebs are you still coming in for this show? Alexis, Sari, Large Marge, phunkyB...anyone and everyone is welcome let's get our party on !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoodRev Posted January 24, 2005 Report Share Posted January 24, 2005 Guigsy I think you're thinking of Rob Benvie, the old Hermit guitar player. He played with the Dears for about a year and a half and then apparently went back to school. Their guitar player before him was my favourite I think, Jonathan Cohen. McGettigan produced Khyber and Truthfully, so that's why he's in the booklet. I don't know what Brennan is up to these days, but I think I like McGettigan on stage better. Is he still rocking a skullet, or did he finally shave all bald? i was just flipping through the truthfully truthfully cd booklet.

Cowboy when Truthfully came out, the two-discer was a limited edition only available at shows. It has 14 songs on it, I think the two extras are The Cold Blue Light and A Job Worth Doing. I guess the whole thing wouldn't fit on one disc so they let him press a Limited Edition two-discer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
