kc Posted June 26, 2008 Report Share Posted June 26, 2008 Does anyone care anymore? Should I put this to rest and forget about it? Rose Garland can't do it. Caution Jam has not gotten back to me. Fatiies are out, Diesel dog is out, Jerry himself would probably dread the thought of a day do celebrate him. Last year during the week there was like 3 people out. I'm not going to have anything if it's going to be a small turn-out. too depressing. thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kc Posted June 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 It should probably be bands who are from hamilton or people here are at least familiar with in Hamilton. Nothing against booking them except if they don't have a draw in the Hammer, then no one will come, and that would not be fun for anyone, especially since it's a long weekend. Never the less, I will check them out. Do they do Dead/Garcia covers? If you got links and the time to send them, please do. Thanks for the input.

bouche Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 I haven't seen a jerry day since at pepper jacks. And that was loads of fun btw. No one does them in Ottawa. Maybe there just isn't enough people that are willing to take that day as the celebration they used to. Either that, or Jerry day needs a spin.

kc Posted June 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 Yeah, I think people think it's too gimmicky or would just rather remember the man in private or something. I'm glad you were there bouche. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allison Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 There is absolutly no chance I will do a Jerry day thing.NONE.Sorry afropoppa!!You could talk to Jd's and Justine the manager(or just go hrough jayr on here).They have booked all the bands mentioned above over the summer (with the exception of Escalate);Sling N The StoneMust Stash HatHarmonic TideFunky TruthEscalateAlthough supportive of those bands doing their thing (all of them, with the exception of Sling N the Stone, are playing Sonic Orchard), those kinds of one genre shows aren't my thing.In a broader sense,I don't enjoy the nostalgia vibe that sometimes seems to choke this "scene" (god I hate that word).Music moves on swift and beautiful from dead people and bands of people you grew up with.I'm a pretty unsentimental person in general though, being a souless bastard about 20% of the time.

Blurry Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 I don't think it's ever a bad thing to celebrate Jerry, KC!! Though not living anywhere near Hamilton - PJC wouldn't be in the cards for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paisley Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 nobody in Hamilton has heard of the Burt Neilson Band? that'd work for mesitting around listening to recorded shows drinking beer doesn't really feel like a tribute to Jerry to me... something original, and with luck suprising and exciting would be more along the lines I look for by way of a tribute to the man... too predictable... cover the bar in orange paper you can see from 5 blocks away, a mirror smashing contest, disco lights and lasers or professional dancers... something involving creativity... musically I don't care if its all Grateful Dead so long as its somewhat spontaneous and full of life... Jerry liked all sorts of musicof course some select tasteful or rare Garcia recordings mixed into a grander scheme to keep on topic wouldn't be bad or anythingotherwise I'm with New Rider =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AWeeJig Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 I always celebrate Jerry day no matter where I am. Whether, it be at a show, small get together, or even solo. I will pay tribute to a great man that touched so many people worldwide, and continues to inspire me and others in the afterlife. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
