That festival schmooze thing is televised Friday at 10pm on CityTv. The CityTv website says that the musical guests are Danko Jones and *cough* David Usher.
Does that mean we all get to see David Usher do one of his sissy-ass little songs and pose and preen for the camera before Danko comes on and wipes the stage with him (probably with 'I Want You')? I'm not absolutely sure but I'm staying home this Friday!

Oh my goodness, what a display DJ put on. It was a one song gig, they played "I Want You", it gave me goosebumps ;D. They were absoultely blistering the night air in Tdot. Way to go guys!!!

Yeah, it was a good performance. They sounded great as usual and it's cool that the Doctor is now singing some backup vocals!
Hated the rest of the show though. I watched it until DJ rocked it, then turned it off about 10 minutes later and watched Bowling for Columbine. I just couldn't take all the celeberty ass-kissing!
What was the rest of the show like?

Ack, the rest of the show was even worse. Second rate movie biz types strutin their egos, sickening. David Usher put everybody to sleep I'm sure.... I was really hoping for a Danko return to the stage, fool that I am.  . Oh well, i was grateful to see their performance, it was worth it, cause I'm still hoping that they come down east whenever their entire Canadian tour is announced. |

As lame as the rest of the show was, I thought the DJ website could have done a little better job promoting the gig as being televised. Because it was on CityTv, pretty much every DJ fan in Canada could have watched them, but that was never made clear. Hell I'd never even heard of "Festival Schmooze" before!
Oh well, we're all patiently waiting for more Canadian dates to be announced. October is still wide open!

Hmmm, ya T-man I was surprised by the lack of info concerning the gig as well.  Thanks to you we certainly had it cover very well on here, now if only all the DJ fans would find us.This band is easily the best kept secret in the music industry, but that will change, I'm positive about that. Meanwhile we shall continue to roll out the well deserved praise and loyality, its all good. |

I disagree with you there Rocky. I don't think Danko Jones are a that well kept secret anymore... I have walked around here in my little town in Sweden looking for the new singel, and almost all the music stores have big posters about DJ new album coming... Of course Danko and his crew are not even close to how big they deserve to be, but as you said, that WILL change!  |

Time and again i forget about the great support that Danko receives in Sweden and other Euro countries. Of course you are right Sac, and there can be no doubt when the band confirms this verbally. Its great to hear about all the support ongoing with regards to the new CD. Thanks Sac. Cheers.

Yeah. I don't be amazed why Danko hates Canadian music industry so much.

I like to see Danko blasting B&vDorp out of their studio!!
Maybe Jan Mulder will start headbangin'?? ;D
Bet they'll play "I Want You", but I hope they do Home to Hell...that will kick their sorry asses off their chairs!!

Is that THIS Friday (November 7th)? If so, big news!
As for that other alleged talent, let's not give that plank the time of day.

Oh, shiny, lots of other Dutch person-thingies here!
I'm really looking forward to seeing him on TV. Never even so much as heard the geezer live so I'm bloody curious. Going to my first gig a few days afterwards.
(As a sidenote for all the other Dutchies (what a horrid word!) There's a Danko interview in the Free (the, yes, free magazine from the free record shop) and a raving CD-review in the Veronica magazine. Just in case you haven't noticed)

Oh my, ANOTHER fan from Holland. You guys are starting to win the nationality majority on this forum. Good to have you here Mara, and lucky for you that you are going to your first show with Dr. Evening and his awsome crew! Tell us all about your first encounter when you are back!  Cheers |

BTW this is the DJ place to be isn't it? But I feel a bit sorry for that Dutch side though...  |

By the way (just to stay on topic) That B&vDorp-giggie is on December the 8th. You can attend it, you have to answer some sort of simple DJ question or something... But I don't like that show very much. Gonna tape it though ;D |

YOU CAN ATTEND IT?  *wakes up from her shock and runs over to the website* The Free is this monthly thingy so it's still in all the stores and it's the Veronica from this week. Dunno if you can still buy it though. But I'm translating it to put it here anyways |
