I saw them a few years back at Bumbershoot- 2007 or 2008, I think? - and her energy was amazing. If she's still got even half of that at Pemberton, it will be a great show.

So, I think life has decided to start a new tradition for me: one week before a music festival my dog will need to get emergency surgery that will eat up my entire savings (and plus some this time). Same issue as last time, so she'll be fine, I just have no idea how I'm gonna pay for it this time since I haven't yet fully recovered financially from the last one, or Coachella spending, or being on medical leave. It's like every time I'm almost back on my feet money-wise, life decides to say "fuck that" and throw something at me that knocks me back down again. Why ya gotta be like that, life?

This isn't acceptable. Someone who's not at work like me start one of those kick starter funds or whatever like there was for Obie and Rachelle and when I get home I'll be putting a big fat plastic Canadian Hundo in it. Money should never have to be a reason not to do something. Has anyone done this yet? I got paid today and it turns out March was a better month than I remember because it was more than I expected, so I can pitch in on this. But, it'll have to be quick while I stl have money before I remember some bill I forgot to pay. Yes, kinda, except the organization mostly took place on Facebook and the funds were sent through PayPal. I'm sure if you PM'd Stormy or HG, you could get their email if you want to kick something over to them via PayPal. And I'm sure they'll say it's not necessary and the offer is more than enough, but that's just 'cause that's how they are.

I'd love the chance to Justice again since they were a half hour late for their Coachella set in 2012 and only played like 25 minutes. It was more of a tease than a set.

Mine was in my "other" inbox on Facebook. I had no idea that even existed. Seems that I have 32 messages in there. Fingers crossed none are too important... Yea that "other" mailbox is a bit of a tricky bitch... one time it turned out my dad sent me a message to try to reconnect after almost 10 years of not talking and it went there so I didn't see it for a year and half and then by the time I did see it and responded, he apparently had changed his mind on a reconciliation. Not a fan of the "other" inbox.

Well, it seems like that is the case at this point. We were just barely going to be able to manage it as it was and now due to a date mixup I am several hundo down and have to figure out how to pay rent let alone Sasquatch. I am pretty much devastated but that is just how life is right now. Does anyone need tickets or know someone who does? This isn't acceptable. Someone who's not at work like me start one of those kick starter funds or whatever like there was for Obie and Rachelle and when I get home I'll be putting a big fat plastic Canadian Hundo in it. Money should never have to be a reason not to do something.

You read the baseball thread?!? I wandered in there once a couple years ago by accident but otherwise I tend to leave all the sports threads alone (and the Craft Beer thread except for a few times out of sheer boredom).

Sloan is one of my favourite bands. They kick ass live, and should be higher on that listing IMO. Really? They're one of the worst shows I've ever been to. I'm willing to give 'em another shot at Pemberton (barring any conflicts with something I've never/want to see more) 'cause I do love them.

That is fucking aces. I really need to get a couple posters to decorate my new place, perhaps I'll start at Sasquatch. You should check out Flatstock at Bumbershoot, they always have quite a few from Sasquatches past and other shows too. It's my favourite thing to check out every year at Bumbershoot; I have far too many posters from there that are still rolled up in tubes.

I would have been disappointed if no one did.

"What's that? Tickets aren't selling so well for Billy Talent and Our Lady Peace? Well what if we sweeten the deal by adding.....MOTHER MOTHER!?!!?" This thing just keeps getting better and better! The funny part is I actually really like that band, but seriously. Can't we have a festival in Victoria without them? Hey, they also added The Naked and Famous and The Cult. Decent adds, but still only makes 3 bands worth seeing.

But some prefer salty. I will always pick a salty snack over sweet. So, dick then. Yep, I figured someone would say that right after I posted.

What about dick or sweets? Pretty much everyone likes some sort of sweet. But some prefer salty. I will always pick a salty snack over sweet.

So I brought this up to a date (because obviously I'm awesome at dating???) and he had an important question which I don't know if has been answered. Is the world without tits (or sauce I suppose) one in which we've been living without tits always, or one in which all of a sudden they're taken from us? If you never knew them, how could you miss them? I like the way your date's mind works.

They were sketchy but also super nice. In 2011 they made my crew a delicious breakfast and gave us blown glass beads all because we told some people their honey was yummy.

I'll admit, the first time I met davers, I fully expected to see a guy that looked like Dave Coulier to walk out to my car and when davers walked out instead I was a little confused and disappointed. Although, I always imagine everyone here sitting at their keyboard, looking just like their avatar, even if I've already met you.

Yeah, those are some pretty good adds but still not quite enough for the price. Although, I just found out a good friend will be working security for the event so I might see about getting in for at least the day Arcade Fire play.

At shows, I always wrap my gum back up in its wrapper and put it into my pocket until I can find a garbage can because the one time I threw the wrapped up gum on the ground I ended up dancing on top of it two minutes later and then had to spend a few hours trying to scrape it off my shoe. Instant karma and an instant lesson.

I bet they're taking longer to ship to Canada. No one else in my crew has theirs. Deep breaths! I'm in Canada and mine came last week on Wednesday apparently (I was still in California on vacation when they arrived). I don't think there's any kind of order to the shipping at all.
