bradm Posted October 24, 2006 Report Share Posted October 24, 2006 Jay, the jambase listings for WC show them in Toronto at the Elmo on Friday and Saturday, with them also in Saint John on Saturday. I assume this is a (correctable) mistake?Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StoneMtn Posted October 24, 2006 Report Share Posted October 24, 2006 (edited) Is there anywhere to get tickets in advance, apart from downtown in Toronto? (I just won't make it down there before the show, and it is my own fault that I didn't look into where tickets are available before today.)EDIT TO ADD: I just read through this thread, and I can see they're available tat ticketweb.ca. Is that a service that will allow me to print up the tickets, or will they hold them at "will call" or what's the deal? I'm thinking that if I order online today, and I can't do one of those two things, then it's probably too late to order online as the tickets wouldn't get to me on time.

Jared Posted October 24, 2006 Report Share Posted October 24, 2006 i don't think it will be sold out if you come down late with no tickets, the venue is pretty big, and i'm sure if you email jay he can hook u up with and advance tickets list or somthing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StoneMtn Posted October 25, 2006 Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 I'll miss you all, you should know......we were originally hoping to make this (and meet, then crash, on StoneMtn's floor)Well, as it happens I won't "own" my own floor until November 30 when I take possession of my new place. After that, though, plenty of crash space is available to anyone with the name Scully. See ya then CJ and DEM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Funk Dawg Posted October 27, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2006 WASSABI COLLECTIVE w/ IRIE BANDTHURSDAY, OCT 26 - WATERLOO, ONLAST NIGHT REVIEWLast night @ The Starlight Room, The Wassabi Collective were on fire.... The band's sound is definitely changing, and the Red Rasta himself Brent "Gisto" is stepping out as a formadible foil for percussionist/vocalist Melissa Meteresky's soulful vocals. Mixing their electro-tribal n' funk sound up with extended instrumentals, Reggae and Soca-dancehall riddims. The crowd and the venue were a perfect mix of ambiance that fostered one of the tightest WC performances I have ever seen.New compositions surfaced as well as new arrangments of Wassabi Collective mainstays kept it interesting for long time fans. A song which was explained to me as a "Indian flavoured jam" was annouced on stage with the name "CHUTNEY" which I found very ammusing.The Irie Band opened the night, playing instrumental dub and covers of Keep on Movin' (Peter Tosh version) and Bob Marley's Exodus. Gisto joined the band on 2 songs, spitting out improvised rap-reggae rhymes with much conviction and fanfare from the dancefloor.The final song of the Wassabi Collective set was "SHINE" which is drummer Jimmy Lewis's love anthem. Listen to a demo version here: www.myspace.com/jimmywassabi . Complaining about the dificulties of singing and drumming at the same time, Jah-lin, the tall African drummer of the Irie Band, stepped in to play drums, as Jimmy sang his powerful and sentimental ballad. Melissa was shone as well, performing on 4 congas and djembe, her energy and talent continues to be at the center of Wassabi Collective's success for the past 6 years.Great to see some skanks there... Jon was peaking out about the Slip, 'Shwa was getting his groove one. Jon from Jomomma was all smiles as were many dreadies and young earthy-types. Hope to see you guys out tonight for this special engagement! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
