etc.

What is [color:purple]spectacular though is getting excited about bands with reviews like:

"....The Uncas Rock....I've had many drinks watching them play, and that in itself should be a ringing endorsement."

or that look like this:

Enjoy your month at the Ho!

where are you finding the logic there brah?

And for the record, I don't see it saying anywhere that I was excited about all these bands.

I update the website for the Ho and I was just trying to pass on some publicity, way to keep being a cock-smoker though, I hope you were able to read into that picture I posted.

This month at The Ho!!!

I guess the exclamtion marks were added to point out how mediocre the bands this month are?

I hope you were able to read into that picture I posted.

While I'm flattered with the amount of fluffing you've been giving me, there was no need to post a pic of yourself...

To be honest, I don't know what crawled up your ass for you to start [color:purple]trying to troll me, but I've had to deal with worse trolls than you... Seriously, we can continue on with this ridiculous bullshit, but I don't see a point... I've never met you, I've always thought and heard you were a decent dude, and then one day you started some shit with me... Why? I don't know... But I have better things to do than go back and forth with you over retarded shit like this... I'm willing to chill out if you are, but if you insist on continuing the trolling than so be it...

nero @ The Canmore Hotel, Canmore Alberta

We stayed in Nelson until Wednesday, leaving voluntarily before we were asked to get the hell out. Drove through treacherous weather, arriving in Banff around midnight. We stayed the night with my depressed transvestite friend (focus man, you know the answers) and he and Chris and I hiked up Tunnel Mountain before we took off for Canmore, booking into our rooms a day early thus succeeding in our mission to survive a week off with a minimum of cost.

The Canmore Hotel (aka the Ho) is a dive-ish tavern that’s about a hundred years old with an awesome staff, and wide cross section of clientele, and a dozen or so half-star hotel rooms upstairs. I was in room number ten: about seven feet by ten feet, with a sink, two mirrors, a cot, dresser, nightstand, no electrical outlets, and a window with a $400-a-night view of the mountains surrounding the village, constantly shrouded in a sublime mist and unrivalled by any mountains I have seen before. I want to live here for the next eighteen months, doing nothing but what I’ve been doing; playing guitar alone in room number ten trying to drown out the jukebox that pounds it’s music through the floor every day from 11am until 3am and eating Jerod subs from Subway. Off time restricted to nature hikes and laundry at “The Lost Sock” and the occasional movie in the common room with Shirley. I got it all figured out…Bach and ear training in the morning, a six-inch with no cheese or mayo, then jazz all afternoon. Foot-long for dinner and jazz ‘til I drop. Every six days I get a free sub (this one treated with sauce) and do my laundry with the money I save. If my fingers hurt I’ll walk up a mountain and look down on my sweet little heaven-in-the-valley, number ten, The Ho. All I need is $320 a month rent and $225 a month for subs, ($180 if I go veggie). I know it’s just a pipe dream, but I can honestly say I’ve been thinking about it every day.

If I could get a sponser…

Something about this place brings out the, um, shall we say the strengths and weaknesses in people, kinda like rock climbing, and casinos. There sure are some characters living upstairs: my new friend Darren, Shirley, the old guy that stares his beer glass empty, and the guy that holds his genitals. In the four days and five nights we (and my friend from Banff who came up for a few days) were in fine form. Without mentioning names, various feats we can claim are fainting three times, drinking a 26er of Jager to ones self between 5am and 11am, consistently sleeping until 6pm, one person nailing another in the head with a beer can, puking, turning down dinner and a hot tub with beautiful naturalists, discussing suicidal feelings, burning about an eighth a day personal, General Sloth and Private Mayhem. The people that come to the bar are weird too.

The shows were good.

Glad you were a part of that magic Todd... To be honest, I can't share the stories I've heard about this run... My claim stands - some of the best nero I've ever heard in my life... (And only a month and a half after Punk joined the band...)

YES! I was there.... Would love to score a copy of that one sometime Del..

Velvet, you were lucky enough to have the only room with a bathroom and sink (and TV) in the entire place. The honeymooon suite!! Anyhow, I remember a stirring rendition of My Cats on Crack played in that room.. Sadly, a couple of those characters who were living up there at the time have passed on. I slept in the TV lounge that night and had some good converstation with Shirley about whatever cooking show we were watching..

ahh, the HO. Will be there on Saturday night for the Uncas I believe... Cheers for the memories on this one!!

Del, wanna do a trade like the old days for that show?

Sure... My burner is fucked at the moment but I can always burn it at someone else's house... Do you have a list? Maybe we can make it a big trade, I've got more nero shows than just about anyone I know..
