cANDYmAN Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 Jackfruit, all the way from Vancouver, are stopping by the 3rd floor at VAN GOGH'S EAR tonight. If you want to catch some great music, come check it out. These boys can play seeing they're former members of Blue Quarter and Slow Nerve Action. See you there.http://www.jackfruitmusic.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

show---whore Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 U.F.ProductionsJackFruitNov 17th 2006 The Casbah Hamiltonw/AmbushedFor music check outwww.jackfruitmusic.com http://www.myspace.com/jackfruit check out there music, very interesting stuff. great lead vocals, great playing, and great songs.Monster bass lines lurch around every smooth, molten piano roll taunting limbs to get up, get moving. Forging jazz, two-ton funk, drum n’ bass, and a maelstrom of motormouth lyrics Jackfruit has broken ties from genres and classifications that separate music by creating their own unique bricolage too mind-blowing to pigeon-hole.After a couple of years at the drawing board and only months in practice, the Vancouver-based foursome took to Mushroom Studios to record their first and currently unreleased independent album that demands to be heard; Check Ça.From forced screams to falsetto, the verbose Chris Berry (Slow Nerve Action/Duran Duran Duran) offers pointed commentary on politics, consumption, fashion, and roller-skating while synth-wizard Ian Lamont (Slow Nerve Action/Duran Duran Duran) speaks keyboard like his first language - alternating melodic, emotional jazz piano with quick blasts of warm screeching organ. Stéphane Fortin (Blue Quarter/Duran Duran Duran) attacks the bass delivering fireball riffs and growling funkiness as drummer Drew Vendetti (Trip) sets the pace through snappy snare shots and eruptions of stupefying swells.November 7 - Baba's - Charlottetown, P.E.INovember 8 - Paramount -Moncton, New BrunswickNovember 9 - Chuggles - Antigonish, Nova Scotia November 10 - The Attic - Halifax, Nova ScotiaNovember 11 - Nep-Tunes - St. John, New Brunswick November 14 - SKOOL - Collingwood, OntarioNovember 15 - 3rd Floor Van Gogh's Ear - Guelph, Ontario w/ Duran Duran Duran November 16 - Red Dog - Peterborough, Ontario w/ Duran Duran Duran November 17 - The Casbah - Hamilton, Ontario (The late show) November 18 - Cecils - North Bay , Ontario Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StoneMtn Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 Thanks livingstoned, for that reminder. I was already considering the Hamilton show some time ago, but never did come to a final decision.Good chance I'll go to that one. Meeting Lazlo, in itself, could be worth the drive to Hamilton.

Deeps Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 Speaking of Tim.Can someone write a story on this guy soon?Maybe around his birthday.He is one of the main reasons music is thriving in this town.He's an animal and needs some real street cred. I think people think he's a bouncer.Deeps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim is a booker, promoter, bouncer, staffer, bus boy, deals with the books and seeks out talent for the 3 clubs in Van Gogh's, The Vinyl, and Jimmy Jazz.
