What can you see from your window? I can

I will swear, by my little toe, two board members on either side of Mr Mexico!

Righteous men of the earth, Oh have you been patient I suppose our thoughts about United Nations Adlai, Adlai, What did you say and what is the answer? Adlai, Adlai, What did you say and what is the answer? 1952 the heart was not your master The accident you knew would carry with your laughter Evidence, evidence I

'JUL-01 WINNIPEG, MAN BURTON CUMMINGS THEATRE' Canada Day in the Peg at the Burton Cummings Theatre. Hmm, I would hope they break out some covers and do American Woman or These Eyes. I don't know how the Weakerthan's 'One Great City' would go over, but it would also be an option. For my city, I've got the Nilhist Spasm Band and the Demics. Cool to hear a cover the punk classic 'I wanna go to New York city'

yeah - that is fantastic. Centennial hall is a bit of a sound killer though. I am so there.....

The kee is not what it once was - but still a lot of fun. I get reminded of this fake press release from a number of years ago with the minus 5: tempted to plagerize/rework it for the BROOD and post it in their Myspace comments

This is soo funny, look at the BROOD dates for Jun/July; Jun 1 Aarhus DK @ Spot Festival Jun 8 Parry Sound ON @ Stockey Centre Jun 9 Montreal QC @ Divan Orange Jun 10 Ottawa ON festival Jun 16,17 Winnipeg MB @ Old Market Square Jun 23 Toronto ON @ Hugh's Room Jul 7 Toronto ON, Yacht Rock Jul 8, 9 Ottawa ON Bluesfest Jul 14, 15 Saskatoon SK @ Ness Creek Festival Jul 22 Red Lake ON @ Norseman Festival Aug 12 Cobalt ON Wilco really should play tinsy tiny Parry Sound, Cobalt or Red Lake. Better yet, they should play the Kee to Bala. Imagine if they again grabbed Garth Hudson and shipped

welcome Nate. I booked the BROOD into a London Ont show earlier this month. They are a friggin amazing band and I've tried to spread the love around this board a tinsy bit. anybody have dates (hmm,,, I wonder if can convince them to play my smaller burb???)

The Maginot Line Did you hear about the foolish French Who hid themselves behind a trench. Filled it with a million men Ten thousand heavy guns and then Figured they would be just fine Now they had the maginot line. Maginot line, maginot line, Thought you were so safe and strong. Maginot line, maginot line, Stupid, stupid, you were wrong. It wasn't very long at all before Mr. Hitler came to call. He said: Boys, this line is strong and sound Lucky for us we can just go around. The stout defenders fought their best But their turrets faced East And the Germans were West. Maginot line, m

My baby loves me I'm so happy Happy makes me a modern girl Took my money And bought a TV TV brings me Closer to the world My whole life was like a picture of a sunny day. My baby loves me I'm so hungry Hunger makes me A modern girl Took my money And bought a donut The hole's the size of The entire world My whole life looked like a picture of a sunny day. My baby loves me I'm so angry Anger makes me a modern girl Took my money I couldn't buy nothin' I'm sick of this Brave new world

The Band Played Waltzing Matilda Now when I was a young man I carried me pack And I lived the free life of the rover. From the Murray's green basin to the dusty outback, Well, I waltzed my Matilda all over. Then in 1915, my country said, "Son, It's time you stop ramblin', there's work to be done." So they gave me a tin hat, and they gave me a gun, And they marched me away to the war. And the band played "Waltzing Matilda," As the ship pulled away from the quay, And amidst all the cheers, the flag waving, and tears, We sailed off for Gallipoli. And how well I remember that

Well old Jackson is dead He

Look out, Mama, there's a white boat coming up the river, with a big red beacon and a flag and a man on the rail I think you'd better call John 'cause it don't look like they're here to deliver the mail And it's less than a mile away I hope they didn't come to stay It's got numbers on the side and a gun, and it's making big waves Daddy's gone, my brother's out hunting in the mountains Big John's been drinking since the river took Emmy Lou So the powers that be left me here to do all the thinking And I just turned twenty-two I was wondering what to do And the closer they got, The more those f

On the outskirts of expansion, looking out from Blueprint peak The flow is flooding of urban setters panning through rivers running dry. Numbers roll on in, smiling a lottery grin, a sadness blurs the eye... It's just a matter of time before they're moving on It's just a matter of time before they're moving on Doesn't take much time for plans to go wrong and chase another ghost of a chance. In the shadows of chain-store ghost towns where no one walks the streets at night, a silent nation hooked on medication, stares into a blue flickering light. the young drift off alone and the old are whiske

you finished your in-room activity with the Jenny Lewis pics? Don't know what the Favours sound like, but she's stunningly pretty and going to be opening up for the wrens on January's UK tour.

sara from the favours is very good looking (when not on her back) ie

Well in this case, you can certainly Photoshop him in at another concert and still gain a point towards your game total. Altamont, Woodstock or the 1965 Newport Folk Festival perhaps?

so, I think Bbop holds the record for traversing the country and showing up at concerts. Let's play a little game where you find him (or someone who looks very much like him) in various 'Close to the stage' band pictures. 2 points for non-wilco/tweedy shows 1 point for wilco shows Wrens at Slim's San Francisco last Friday - lower right hand corner:
