Great tunes, i have a concert DVD, yes DVD not Blueray because its pretty old :laugh: of Bad Company and this is a tune from it. Let me tell you this always gets played very loud.
Don't know why its age restricted because that's just stupid, no reason for it. Check it out on YouTube.

Winnipeg, Manitoba,
Let us know how it goes. I'm very jealous that you will be there.
Sorry for the late feedback…

I thought the whole thing was just awesome!

Movie has had some cosmetic clean up, it looked and sounded great. I honestly haven’t watched the movie in 10+ years, so was good to get reacquainted with it.

The Q & A part was well done, Paul Williams seems to be hanging in there pretty well at 83. The Juicy Fruits/The Undead guys were there as well. Some very interesting takes on their careers and how the whole film came about. Their love of Winnipeg was front and centre… and why wouldn’t it be, we’ve helped to keep their careers half assed relevant for 50 years! It did drag on a bit… a few people ended up leaving.

First time seeing the local band Swanage, (they closed out the evening) and I came away very impressed. Can’t remember the lead singers name, but holy crap he has a great set of pipes. The girl who sang the Phoenix songs (nowhere near as hot ;)) acquitted herself very well, her Juicy Fruit harmonies were spot on. The band itself held their own musically.
The old boys from the Juicy Fruits came out for their songs, as well as Somebody Super Like You (The Undead) and knocked it out of the park!

Kudos to the local people who did all the organizing, I think there’s a core group of 6-8 people who make most of it happen. They did a fantastic job.

I have never seen a merch line like that in my life… believe they sold pretty much everything.

Well worth the $100 or whatever it was we paid for a ticket, my wife’s friend flew in from Vancouver for it too.

And that’s my take!

Thanks. Really appreciate hearing the review and wish I could have been there. A friend of mine flew in from Calgary for the afternoon show and said he really enjoyed it. A couple of songs by Swannage and some of the Juicy Fruits were around, but not like the evening show I imagine.

Any one got tickets for J.P. Hoe's concert at the Burt' going into Christmas... ?

I'm pissed... I missed the tickets becoming available on Ticketmaster... it's sold out...

I wish he would do two shows there... anyways... I can keep buying his music direct from him...

And share it here... a cover of another of my favorite performers... Tom Petty...

Britt Daniel is an amazing vocalist... kills it... simply...



And for good measure... both these tracks are live... one offs... tight band...

In 1982...

All my Buds... my Lady... their Ladies...

Sat down and watched the last live concert of these guys.... epic...

In Canada.. sort of.. Toronto...

They didn't disappoint...

It was an Emminence Front... :thumbu:...



And because I like to Amp it up... a remix from 5 years ago... it's exceptional...

Same tune... same party...

And as a long haul windsheild driving all in one SOB... my own Secretary... own Chauffeur... Negotiator... Tyler Durden... Edward Norton... and My own Best Friend...

Burning the miles late at night getting home to the few that truly Love you... with only the Truckers... the real Pro's back then... to come back alive from the road... This remix is king... salvation... a Testement... a homage to my Sales/Service trips pan-Western Canada days past... thanks to those who tuned into and "Enjoyed the party"....My recaps of the travelling playlists... I love you all... ;)

@Eyeseeing ... I know retirement is imminent.... an Emminence Front... a put on... way to survive and prosper... step out on your own terms... :thumbu:
