I want Friday today! After seeing the boys at the Riv two weekends ago, I couldn't be more pumped.\

M, sorry about skipping the afterparty that night. Cranky friend.

There will be no skipping the afterparty on Friday. No how. No way.

C'mon fence sitters. London is:

One Hour from Kitchner, Hamilton, Chatham

Two from T.O.,Windsor, Collingwood

Six From Ottawa

Get into it!!!!

London was a blast folks! BNB are by far the best partying band in Canada. Thank you guys!!!

Also a special HUGE thanks to Guigsy for his kind hospitality (as usual). Things didn't look too messy when I left, but I was still having a bit of difficulty focusing. :P You rock buddy! :grin: See you on the 28th.

Nice to meet some new skanks who were out and about as well. Thanks to everyone who sponsored me for the MS Walk. I'm sure a few of you don't quite recall your post-bar donations, but your inebriated generosity is very much appreciated by my family and I. I won't lie, that was a rough 10k, but I was happy to have accomplished so much before noon (it's been a while).

P.S. Studog, what happened to you, dirty? You threw a smoke bomb down pretty early didn't ya? Well, early for you anyway. Hahaha!

Just a note to say great night on Saturday.

Thanks to BNB for another smokin set. You guys truly are on top of your game right now. That Chevron was disgusting! It was nice hanging out after too.

Thanks to Guigsy for the afterparty. Glad we could have fun, even when you were swimming out in the deep end.

Thanks to all who came out. Good to see so many folks come down for the show. London needs the suppport.

Thanks to Sammy's for the gyros.

:P

damn... took me a while to get back to shore! glad everyone had a good time.. lets do it again sometime..

burt was awesome on friday nite!! standouts for me were the 2nd song into the nite, These Days i think... the jam into yellow pants was funkin' massive! ummm, yeah, the chevron is a whole other monstrosity to itself, good lord man! and i really dug the second set opener, Distraction.. great songs, great jams, great segues, awesome funkiness, some sweet twang... some sweet ass rock n roll.. thanks for turnin' it out for us.

also, i picked up Jer's solo album... Olmer... pick it up, its pretty good! made me think of an 'in need of medical attention - early tortoise - and jim o'rourke influenced wilco' type of stew... if you're into any of that stuff, you'll probably dig it.

anyways, good times around... lookin' forward to come together!
