nibbler Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 out of pure kindness, and why not The show ended after 3 AM. If sharing the drums would have meant a drum tech tuning the kit in between sets, it would have taken time away from the NRPS sets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YearsAlongTheSea Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 You can spell show business without kind.

M.G.C. Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 out of pure kindness' date=' and why not [/quote']Maybe the NRPS drummer has an expensive (or old, or rare) kit, and doesn't trust anyone else to use it? Maybe he's let someone use it in the past, and had bad things happen to it? Aloha, Brad This is almost always the reason one musician does not lend another their stuff. I never lend my high end gear. Drop it and who pays? its weird. Like Marco said as well "why should he" the drummer is on the road and its not his responsiblity to provide gear. Its a big drag, but thats the way it goes on the "bigger" gigs. In my pre jamband days my rock band opened for many big name acts where we were told "Our stuff is set up, you can not move it so set up in front of us". None were worse than when we opened for the Ramones (2 shows in 92'). Or Blue Rodeo for that matter. There was nothing we could do.. The show must go on... And sounds like the the Fatties played the best hand they could, given the cards they were dealt. Also sounds like everyone still had a great time.. Wish i could have been there.

Blurry Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 I got pretty tired during the set though.. ME TOO!Don't know if that is the reason (and I'm sure it played a role) but I didn't love the show - I may have gone in with my expectations set too high. I thought there were some great moments - pleasant surprise to hear Lonesome LA Cowboy & a really nice psychadelic jam in the first set that brought me too a nice place (it was during the song that goes "It seemed like such a good idea at the time" etc..)Didn't mind that there wasn't a drummer for the Fatties - thought they sounded great. Really nice to hear The Station - can't remember the last time I heard that!!!Great crowd - great vibe. Nice to see a whole bunch of familiar faces and a whole bunch of people out that I haven't seen in a while.Paisley, thanks for making me laugh my ass off - "I'm not going to be the guy who says, "Jerry taught you well". I'm not going to be the guy who says, "Jerry taught you well". I'm not going to pour salt in my eyes, I'm not going to pour salt in my eyes.........Fuck, I poured salt in my eyes".Thanks Briguy and KC and anyone else involved for making this happen!!

whiteymuseum Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 edger, kc, briguy et al:If something like this with the drums were to ever happen again, feel free to call my cell. I have a full spare drumkit that we keep at The Underground.Very cool that the show was a success.Big respect for all that put on risky shows, and come out on top.

briguy Posted April 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 Thanks for all the support everyone. It wouldn’t be possible without you. It was a great night and I hope to have them back before 2038. I must admit my expectations were exceeded and I was very happy to see most of you having a good time.Thanks again.Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briguy Posted April 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 Hey thanks for the offer Brodie.For the record, after being asked several times to use his drums NRPS drummer gave in and said okay. You could tell he was still bothered about it and not too happy so Doug and I made the decision and said no. It was for the best and sorry if we disappointed anyone.Fat Cats still rocked, as expected, and I wasn’t worried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ollie Posted April 24, 2007 Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 FWIW, was talking to a friend of Buddy Cage's at the show in Toronto on Saturday. Apparently Buddy was hoping for a mellow night as he said Hamilton had gotten a little too "wild". Good job guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briguy Posted April 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2007 It was out of control in a controlled kind of way. We sure did show them a good time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kc Posted April 25, 2007 Report Share Posted April 25, 2007 This show was awesome. Half the charm for me was certainly all the heady heads and the good vibes circulating the area.It was unfortunate about the drums, but I think the fatties were the most upset. The show was on too big a roll to be affected by a missing drum kit.NRPS really liked the crowd here as well. It was mentioned a few times after the show how much they loved the crowd and the night.
