I'm not a big Nickelback fan, but here in Toronto Seether and Bush are opening for them (as well as another band). I'm almost tempted to go and see them just for the opening bands (although, has Bush actually recorded any music in the last 12 years?).

I'm going to Edgefest, and thinking of going to Heavy TO (to see System of a Down) - both at Downsview Park, Toronto.

I found a useful website for finding out about concert announcements called Songkick. You signup, you pick cities and artists, and when those artists announce concerts in those cities Songkick notifies you via email. http://www.songkick.com/

I am in no way connected with Songkick, just thought it might be a useful service to share

Went passed your booth today but as you weren't there went over to Routledge instead and bought a book. The whole place was a bit of swindle as they don't have any free wine and beer.

We always give free wine and beer - at least when I'm there. Sorry I missed you there. I trust you showed LM a good West coast time?

We had a few nice drinks and nibbles and rather middle-agedly misbehaved with our lovely server. We missed you, but I got a lovely tote-bag and a couple of highlighters.

That's brilliant. You've got Snow Patrol for your middle-aged sentimentality and a modern teenage version of Gilbert O'Sullivan for your daughter. Sounds like a win-win situation for you both.

I've told HID and her mate that they should go. I bet they put on a great dancy concert. You should all go and have a brilliant Wednesday night out.
