Happy to read that the band survived a nasty rollover with minor injuries. Could have been a lot worse.

But isn't it a bit ironic that they do all their work in Bars, like the Sunset, whose business is providing a nice sociable place for people to drink alcohol....

In the meantime, invading and rebuilding Iraq will not only free the Iraqi people, it will also make the Saudis aware of the consequences they face if they continue to oppress their own people while exporting terrorism and terrorists. The War on Iraq will make it clear to our friends and enemies in the Middle East (and elsewhere) that we mean business: Free your people, reform your societies, liberalize, and democratize... or we're going to come over there, remove you from power, free your people, and reform your societies for ourselves.

It's all Nader's fault

Right, because by attending a bar you are thusly required to get in a car afterwards. Brilliant line of reasoning, Banged. Were you dropped on the head as a child?

I recommend you all drive up to Fruitvale (a suburb of Trail, BC) and attend the Wiccan convention, or come up to where I am, in Nelson, BC, for the motorcyle convention.

Seriously, you'd have a better time.

Oh, and Omak is full of religious freaks - last time I take Highway 20 ...

aw man, there was still a show last night at The Sunset. Black Diamond Heavies and Gravel Road still played. I sent Jonathan an email yesterday morning with all the details about the TR accident and cancellation including the fact that the other 2 bands were still playing (Black Diamond Heavies are on tour from Nashville)

its dissapointing to me that you omitted this detail in your slog post and "De-Recomend"ed the show (first time ive ever heard that term "de-recommend")

i suppose you already have enough dissapointed people to deal with with the Atlas thing and all...but

Please understand thet there is a difference between a band cancelling a performance and a show being cancelled altogether, thats all

im not going to weigh in on Atlas, good luck with that

@ Jonah: For the Love of all things holy please stop. No one is listening anymore. It is time to push forward to something else. Like that sitcom that Savage was going to appear on that ABC dropped before it ever made past the pilot stage. I am sure there are many more embarassing moments one can find dealing with Dan that will at least add some variety to your now rather tedious posts.
