FRIDAY, NOV. 10th, 2006 Opera House www.theoperahousetoronto.com $12.50 advance tickets RT/SS/ST/SHANTI BABA $15 at the door BUY TICKETS ONLINE HERE Formed in 1996 in frosty Thunder Bay, Ontario, BURT NEILSON BAND is a four-piece group simply in love with music. Consisting of bass, drums, guitar, keyboards and vocals, BNB thrives on live performances filled with creativity and spontaneity. The band, in their ten year career, have toured Canada coast to coast eighteen times, played over eight hundred shows, had four successful independent releases, and secured an army of loyal and devoted fans. With an original lineup of seven, BNB have refined their sound over the years to be more focused, clean and in tune with the moment. Mike Filipowitsch (guitar/vocals), Jeff Heisholt (keyboards/vocals), Jeremy Little (bass/vocals) and Gavin Maguire (drums/vocals) do their best to create music from the heart, drawing heavily from their backgrounds of rock n' roll, funk, country and life. The road has been good to Burt Neilson Band. They've been lucky enough to play across Canada and the USA, logging countless hours of van time and stage experience. From their beginnings in Northern Ontario, the band quickly branched out to spread their music to as many people as possible. One cross country tour suddenly turned into a dozen and before they knew it, BNB found themselves veterans of the highway and leaders of a new resurgence of independent Canadian touring bands. Consistently selling out rooms across the country and basically living on the road became the norm for Burt Neilson. So in 2002 the band decided to take a year off, settle down and get ready for another long stretch of writing, performing and recording. The band emerged from hibernation in early 2003 and received the "COCA – 2003 Indie Band of the Year" award, played high profile gigs at the Evolve Festival, Come Together Music Festival, Yellowknife Folk Festival and many others... Burt Neilson Band first entered the recording studio in 1997. Although throughout their years they have encouraged the taping and trading of their live shows, 1998 saw the release of the self-titled 'Burt Neilson Band'. Recorded in Thunder Bay, the CD featured 10 of the band's first compositions and went on to sell out of many pressings. BNB followed that with 2000's 'Orange Shag Carpet', which featured more mature writing and showcased the musical growth of the band. 2001 brought the release of 'Five Alive', a live CD recorded while on tour in Ontario that March. It featured one song from each previous release as well as six new originals and clocked in at 74 minutes. The band released their fourth CD, "By the Door" in February 2004, and are currently preparing new material for their next release. for more information please contact: NU FUNK CONCERTS www.nufunk.ca info@nufunk.ca Edited November 12, 2006 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottieking Posted September 25, 2006 Report Share Posted September 25, 2006 Jaydawg, you are worst than the creators of Lost, leaving us with but a single question mark and the cryptic clue to over-analyze.get excited y'all - The y'all could be refering to you all, or could it be a harbinger of country fried soundsthe old skool - while simply taking this at face value might be tempting, look at the spelling. Something more?is about to get nu-skool! - Perhaps a merging of old and nu or the New? What's the Deal?OMG - If you add the letters in the numbers of the phrase you get 4 8 15 16 23 42 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
