thomson Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 Just checked out the Idlers website. They sound fantastic. Are they touring with the full 11-piece?There were 9 of them on Tuesday night; plus a merch dude. Did you notice on their website they have the CTMF show listed as "Frontier, Ontario"? That made me chuckle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phorbesie Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 well the sisters euclid smoked! the new keyboard/accordion player was great. they played a really long set on sunday night, which included (not in order) tumbleweed tea, faith cola, southern man, helpless, lawyers guns and money, a cousin of martin scorsese. i can't believe i was too lazy to walk back the 100m to get my camera. i also really enjoyed diesel dog in the saloon friday night, the dirk quinn band on sunday, and mark wilson on friday. the idlers were good but it didn't blow me away. was so tired i couldn't make it to the saloon on sunday night! the drive down from ottawa was lovely and so green and lush. i loved the festival site and camping area and the weather was really nice, cool and misty on saturday allowing for a little sleep/quiet time in the morning, and super hot on sunday. saturday night, there was a huge bonfire. everyboday had a campfire too and the Halfway camp peeps had their giant beer can flaming and other cool fiery designs. i had a great time! but it was nice to come home to a shower and bed yesterday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edger Posted May 25, 2010 Report Share Posted May 25, 2010 Cool! Glad to hear you enjoyed your CTMF experience. It sure can be an exhausting one, but I always seem to have a great time there. Your musical highlights do not surprise me in the slightest! Good stuff. On a side note, odd that I still haven't met you.Also glad to hear that the weather treated y'all kindly. We were about an hour or so further north and had fantastic weather!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Velvet Posted May 26, 2010 Report Share Posted May 26, 2010 If you know Justin perhaps you know his campmates: Murray, Jerod, Joe, and Lee, all from Collingwood?Nice people, I was very glad to be camp neighbors with them.

Schwa. Posted May 26, 2010 Report Share Posted May 26, 2010 i'm pretty sure that there was a charles manson documentary of some sort shot out there at one time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guitarberman Posted May 26, 2010 Report Share Posted May 26, 2010 (edited) That was a GOOD TIME!!!!! The highlight for me, was during Stumbleweed. The fire was RAGING outside, and pieces of hot ash were landing the roof of the saloon. They had 1 or two guys on the roof hosing down the building, while the saloon was full of people dancing and Sumbleweed were incredible! That Train bus was also very very cool Thank you Mark Wilson, mark Tonin Edited May 26, 2010 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allison Posted May 27, 2010 Report Share Posted May 27, 2010 If you know Justin perhaps you know his campmates: Murray, Jerod, Joe, and Lee, all from Collingwood?Nice people, I was very glad to be camp neighbors with them. You should get them on the message board! Well Collingwood is a small town...we all know each other in one way or another...but they are some of my favourites. Murray is joining right now..the others do not use computers often or at all. Joe is the little brother of Bohdan, who did some awesome shots of Dave for envelope 3 stuff last year.
