Deeps Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 Looks like Ottawa's got some major action going down in the Maverick's Building on this night.If you're shying away from the show upstairs at Dekuf because you're not into paying 2 covers, we the Dekuf crowd understand, so please PM me and we'll figure something out OK.We'd like to see your faces even for just a brief moment.Cheers and congrats to the John Henry's on their CD.Deeps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is anyone willing/able to be first at Babylon and then later at Dekcuf, as well as buy and bring me a copy (for which a reimbursement will gladly be made)?Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booche Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 Yup. That first set was fantastic and I am glad to have got there early enough to see it. I wish the last dude had performed earlier in the set because he was my least favourite. The broad in the cowboy outfit that said she was the reincarnation of Hank Williams certainly brought the honkey-tonk out of the John Henrys.I loved Steve Fai as well, provided he was the dude in the blazer.
