bouche Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 it's for those people that are assholes and take up so much real estate with their super chairs with built-in ottoman's and coffee tables and leave their chairs to go play elsewhere, and come back and bitch at people who are now standing in front of their chair.there are no separate sections on the side stages from what I remember. anyway, we shouldn't hijack this thread any longer.

Schwa. Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 were there people in their lawn chairs at the Diesel/Jam show? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 were there people in their lawn chairs at the Diesel/Jam show?No, which is a shame, because there was loads of room on the empty dance floor for them.Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baj Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 thought there would be a way bigger turn out for this, since Ottawa peeps have been requesting a visit from both bands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freak By Night Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 just more proof that ottawa truely sucks and that they don't deserve half the music they get coming through town.[color:purple]When Elemeno comes to Ottawa for the Bluesfest, let's kidnap him and take him to the Nickelback concert. Then he can get an appreciation for how Ottawa "truely" sucks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phorbesie Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 thought there would be a way bigger turn out for this, since Ottawa peeps have been requesting a visit from both bands i didn't even realize this show was happening until velvet mentioned it to me last week. if nobody talks about a show or does promo, people can't plan ahead for it.

bradm Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 And yo! Thanks for the shooters phorbesie!What he said (and just triggered as a memory, which somehow got lost...go figure...).Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baj Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 I think your post should be in purple phorbesie, ha, it was pinned at the top of the first page for weeks... lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gateaux Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 I personally didn't go because i am not a huge fan of either band and didn't want to spend the cover nor the money on drinks. Priorities i guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phorbesie Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 as mooose mentioned earlier, i usually ignore the pinned threads. and even though it was pinned, it doesn't look like anyone was really posting in it.if nobody talks, people don't get hyped. people aren't always on the board.but continue ottawa bashing if you must!

bradm Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 I considered starting a separate roll-call topic (as I often do for shows I'm going to) the day of the show, but didn't because of the pinned topic. Would a roll call have helped, phorbesie (and anybody else)?Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ollie Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 as mooose mentioned earlier, i usually ignore the pinned threads.Me too. Mooose put it well -- pinned topics become part of the advertising that I subconsciouly ignore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phorbesie Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 also, DD and CJ are band that never play here. no surprise less peeps came as in KW or wherever they always play. if you count all the ottawa people on this board, a lot of those people were there. though arriving quite late i saw 20 people there i knew i'm sure. it takes OTHER people as well besides this board to fill a bar.i did try to rally some peeps into partyin! anyway, i am sorry that it wasn't full and i don't blame the bands if they stick to towns they do well in, but i will try to see them again another time!

Priorities i guess.Not into good music from local bands eh?Your definition of local is messed up. I am not a fan of either band, I had other plans and priorities, like Mr. Cake said above. I don't know why people are really complaining about this. Yeah it sucks that the draw wasn't good, but so what? The bands played great apparently, the people were there liked it, now there's a peanut gallery from out of town talking about this like they know something?Silly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gateaux Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 Baj your panties seem like they are in a stinky bunch. I don't really know what your talking about "Ottawa" begging SoOn bands to come down to come down by any means either....And Willy your comment is just plain silly brother, what you consider "good music" obviously differs from what i consider "good music."

Gateaux Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 I love threads like these where people shit on a town for not coming out to a show that they might not have wanted to go see! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phorbesie Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 to answer brad - i bet a roll call would have informed a few more people, but not tons. myself i often don't read the board on the weekend so would only notice that if posted on friday.
