Dr. J Posted April 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 Ollie I checked w/James they're working on the same time frame as Brad. Perhaps when the Rev hits Ottawa he can verify start time."Recently heard a solid version of the Beatles Ticket to Ride"holy shit. niceWarning: Haven't heard it since....but ya never know....

Big Wooly Mammoth Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 I'm going to somehow try to stay awake for this one. It's been a long week. The babysitter is coming over at 10PM , so I'm committed to being there. But I am looking forward to it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGoodRev Posted April 13, 2008 Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 Sorry I wasn't able to provide timing last night...we woke up in Fredericton yesterday and headed straight for Dekcuf, loaded in at 9:45 and played at about 10:40. We really had a blast last night...felt really good about our set and were really glad that people dug it.So the tour is over now. Our tour blogs are posted at http://www.myspace.com/dangriffinmusic for anybody interested. They'll be embellished with pictures in the next few days.Sweet show, thanks to everybody that came!

Sweet! I'm gonna give this a listen as soon as I get a chance. (Thanks Brad!) Great to see that Words has made its way back onto the Spades roster, I always liked their version of it. About 5 songs on that setlist that I don't recognize too. Encore must have been a blast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. J Posted April 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 Good times Sat nite for sure. Great to see Brad, Mooose, the Rev and everyone....and to meet Booche...a fine fellow indeed despite his obvious affinity for les Canadiens Like many others who were there I really recommend, if folks have a chance, that you catch Dan & The Regrets. Great band! Great guys! Really brought it Sat nite and after travelling 10 hours from Fredericton in snow and ice. Gotta love that kind of dedication to the craft! Encore must have been a blast! Yeah it was Kev. Seeing all those guys up there just rockin' out and having such a great time doing it....really what it's all about. Really hoping these two bands will hook up again. And yeah a double shot of Neil! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Wooly Mammoth Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 I really enjoyed both bands. And the Spades can ROCK! I'm so glad that I forced myself out for this. Will definitely catch both bands the next time that they are around. The "biggest character that you'll meet tonight" Hab's fan that we met outside b/w sets was hilarious!

snarfmaster C Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 what a great show. a good pairing of bands for sure. glad to be introduced to dan griffin and his regrets - their music and the dudes themselves. good stuff all around that encore was an excellent feel-good end to a night of good rockin. i've been singing everybody knows this is nowhere ever since Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
