Rob Not Bob Posted November 20, 2003 Report Share Posted November 20, 2003 OK, the name sucks ... Further to the good time we had last september at the Pagan Picnic, I am looking to get the wheels started on the Get Back Music Faire next summer on the same site. This will be a benefit to raise money for the Mission and food for the Ottawa Food Bank. The folks from here who made it out and/or performed at the Pagan Picnic (Dr. Hux, Pottie, BradM, B&Z, Larry Jr., Arcane, etc. ) can testify to what a great site it was, with some awesome music being made and a cool vibe. I think if we can get enough folks out this should be a great time, with camping, fun and music on into the night. I know this is early, but I would like to get a little bit started ... if anyone has any suggestions or wants to help form an organizing committee, feel free to speak up now. I think this could be a heck of a lot of fun and a great time for everyone. Seriously, though, the name ... if anyone has a better idea, I would love to hear it Cheers, RnB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B & Z Posted November 20, 2003 Report Share Posted November 20, 2003 Ahhh....call it "Mosquitostock" !! Never knew they had critters like that out there....even my guitar neck had welts on it for days...scary! (only De-tox Hux was unaffected, I think his hemp-o-globin was extremely "high" that night) It was a blast so I hope lots of bands/musicians volunteer and come out.....good times all around. I forgot to tell you yesterday that that on your birthday '5-08-70, Jimi played NORMAN, Oklahoma- cosmic connection or coincidence?.you be the judge (Twilight Zone music.......) take care NORMAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hux Posted November 20, 2003 Report Share Posted November 20, 2003 ....well....noone can ever accuse you waiting till the last minute on this Rob... Lot's of time to get this one figured out, but I would say a non-conflicting date would be the 1st order of business, let people get it in their schedules early.... It's a great site!! Let's make it happen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Musicface Posted November 20, 2003 Report Share Posted November 20, 2003 Hey, when exactly is this? If you're looking for more bands, I'm sure I could get the Uncle Seth crew up for this since we've made so many good friends in Ottawa over the past year or so, and it would be a kick to actually be there when it's warm for a change. Plus we're always keen on supporting anything that's anti-hunger. And if not, I'd probably come myself just for the party! Peace, Mr. M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hux Posted November 20, 2003 Report Share Posted November 20, 2003 ....no shit buddy, judging by the atkins-like trimdown of your band, it's quite evident you folks are anti-"hunger"!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Not Bob Posted November 20, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2003 Haven't set the date in stone, nor do I think we should yet, having to see how next year shapes up for schedules of Pagan Festivals (so I can make it), various and sundry music festivals (so everyone else can make it), individual touring schedules (ditto) , and availability of the land. Even if we are able to get it set in decent time, I am terrified that all of a sudden Pork Tornado will have a New England tour on the same day and absolutely everyone in Ottawa, Montreal, Toronto, Hamilton and all points in between will be there instead We shall see, but I would love to have Uncle Seth there.

Mr. Musicface Posted November 20, 2003 Report Share Posted November 20, 2003 Sounds great Rob - we're gonna be trying to do a lot more touring next spring and summer so keep us in mind for it. And Hux - you may be right about my band mates, but I'm up 6 pounds from my ideal fall fighting weight. To celebrate, I'm going to Milestones tonight for beer, steak, fries, beer & one of their ridiculous quadruple-chocolate deserts. Hmmmm... - M.

Those weren't Mosquitos, those were condors! I'm hoping to have this in June, outside of Mosquito season. RnB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larry jr. Posted November 21, 2003 Report Share Posted November 21, 2003 If Dr. Hux recommends re-naming this to "Larry David's Neverland Ranch Redux," I ask for the right to veto power. I swear, it was all just a big misunderstanding, and I won't be bringing any frisbee next time around. Other than that, I'll try thinking of some good ideas and get back to you. And yes, for those that weren't there, it was a super chilling time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
