DevO Posted April 20, 2005 Report Posted April 20, 2005 WOW! The line-up looks great and the venue looks AMAZING! It would be neat to see these bands in such a remote spot. For those that don't know, the Sunshine Coast is on the mainland but only accessible by ferry. (right?) I urge everyone to check out the website. Here's some pics. Slip late night set?
AdamH Posted April 20, 2005 Report Posted April 20, 2005 Wtf? That is fantastic. I'm glad that the slip are keeping people in the dark until the last minute, the suspense is great. Is Madeira Park in the Interior somewhere?

Basher Posted April 20, 2005 Report Posted April 20, 2005 One of my big pet peeves - the term "first annual". They have a word for this - it's called inaugural.-end ridiculous rant-

Del Posted April 22, 2005 Report Posted April 22, 2005 Trust me, if there was any human way possible I could see The Slip in Canada, I'd do it. Unfortunately money and work prevent me from going. I really hope The Slip gets taped...
