\/\/illy Posted February 8, 2006 Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 10pm: KAYA(Superb Bob Marley Tribute), FAMILY FUNCTION(Soul music) $8 Are these guys the PJC house band now or something? Do you have family in the band? Do they pay you to play? I'm just trying to understand the frequency they get booked at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

\/\/illy Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 They are the bomb Bob Marley band that everyone loves. I don't love them. Then again that doesn't count because... [singing][color:blue]I don't like reggae... I hate it.[/singing] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
\/\/illy Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 To be fair, I thought they were an excellent band when I saw them; I just don't enjoy reggae. I still think it's funny that you book them so often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexis Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 hey willy why don't you like reggae? i don't like it cause when people dance to it, they look like they're marionette puppets and it freaks me right out. and it's slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
payce-ley Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 pretty sure you'll like Dave Clark Sunday night Willyyou should check em out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
\/\/illy Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 I find it too damn repetative and uninteresting. I've always figured I just don't smoke enough pot to be stoned and bored enough that I could enjoy reggae. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
\/\/illy Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 pretty sure you'll like Dave Clark Sunday night Willyyou should check em outYes, that sounds like a great show. I've seen all those players before but not in that arrangement. It could definitely be time to kill a bottle of wine at PJC on a Sunday night.

kc Posted February 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 Ultra Magnus article from todays View http://viewmag.com/viewstory.php?storyid=3824Woodshed Orchestra article also from todays View http://viewmag.com/viewstory.php?storyid=3834Willy, Reggae doesn't like you either. If you like Afrobeat though, don't even think of missing Ultra Magnus. Seriously high energy band with plenty of originals as well as some Fela classics.

\/\/illy Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 Willy, Reggae doesn't like you either. [color:purple]Well reggae can go fuck itself. If you like Afrobeat though, don't even think of missing Ultra Magnus. Seriously high energy band with plenty of originals as well as some Fela classics. I'd love to be there but I have a wedding to attend that night. I may try to stop by later in the night but if I do I will be overdressed and soused. Any discount if I show up at 1:30am to catch a little bit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

babette Posted February 11, 2006 Report Share Posted February 11, 2006 hey, I work at the tranzac in toronto and I saw dave clark's woodland orchestra. extremely awesome set and great turn out. Highly recommended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
\/\/illy Posted February 11, 2006 Report Share Posted February 11, 2006 let me just check.reggae = bad afrobeat = good just want to make sure I got that right. Yes, you got that right. Or, right if you were trying to summarize my opinion. Is that what you were doing? I'm sorry, is it difficult to understand someone that doesn't appreciate reggae but really enjoys afrobeat? Seems understandable to me. Care to have a pint of Creemore at the West Town and discuss further? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
