Jaimoe Posted December 23, 2003 Report Share Posted December 23, 2003 Television goes on a massive club tour in support of a new album and plays Toronto's Massey Hall. The Allman Brothers welcome Dickey Betts back into the fold with a tour and new studio album. The Toronto and Ottawa shows are a huge success.

Booche Posted December 23, 2003 Report Share Posted December 23, 2003 Fine then! Oysterhead opens for the Police........... The guest appearances that occur throughout the night, make us all realize we shouldnt be as high as each one of us are, because it's taking away from the brilliance of the 'moment' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarcO Posted December 23, 2003 Report Share Posted December 23, 2003 Bill Frisell anywhere in Southern Ontario. MMW anywhere outside a Toronto jazz festival (just for a change) - preferably Hamilton Place! Phish - 3 nights at Ricoh Coliseum in Toronto. A New Deal show anywhere on the continent.

SaggyBalls Posted December 24, 2003 Report Share Posted December 24, 2003 you're all so silly. what a silly post...i love silliness... so far the best one's been velvet... but my dynamic seamless sets are indicated with a double asterisk between the seamless bands. 2PM springer and ducommun group(could be interchanged with stephen franke...but i haven't seen SF&NFtT but i believe everyone's points of view regarding music that's raved about that group)>**4PM tND(a few shows after the hiatus, warming up for the montreal jazz fest...DnB/dub/jazzy/funky stuff) 6PM the roots>**8PM theivery Corporation>**11 PM soulive> 1AM moe.>**4 AM trey band 7 AM antibalas>**9 AM dirty dozen brass band> 12 noon-4 PM - bill frisell dinner - 4:30-7 7:30GTB**> 11 PM nero> 1:30AM> 4AM D&T> ** 7-9 AM manitoba anyone that's heard theivery corp would understand why they get the longest mid-evening set. another reason would be that people deserve a break from intensity. i know all you kiddies love your rock and roll but if this fest were in an opera house style club or a club with multi level partying (balconies and mezzanines) the show would be by far one of the most mindblowing times you'll have had. that would make it the dream concert. especially with manitoba. i think it's a great mix of organic and electronic. you got some rock, some funk, some jazz, some trip, some ultra trip. sure you can have your phish and panic and keller williams and this and that and granola this and hippy psychadelia that but keep in mind that it's not set up as an outdoor festival show. outdoors is the best venue for tie dye. indoors is a totally different vibe... ...i just opened the gates for a 'jambands started from concert hall shows' yeah i know...of course a cool venue is great for any band but we get to see somany rock and roll shows indoors and the summer is when they really open up and we have more fun with them. i don't see a lot of jazz/hip hop/post rock/electronic festivals happen with the intensity of an outdoor rock fest. sure there are select performances, but when mood and atmosphere are so dependant on the venue and you understand that mood and atmosphere are an integral part of the experience, I think that my point of view isn't necessarily deserving of a devil's advocate...especially when it's MY dream show. and if you really think about it it could be yours too...especially with a hammock room for after manitoba.
