Thats terrible news... sorry for your loss!!

lol.. check out this one...

Well done.. Good for you guys!

Its always tough to loose a parent.. My condolences...

Thas awesome Ron.. good for you bud!!

I havent been able to logi fo about an hour... anyone else having trouble??

I dunno.. they used them a couple of times Like Geddy... when you are as famous as WE are you can get away with some things... WE try to keep our kids pretty grounded.. it doesn't hurt that we really enjoy music so from the get go they had to endure our tunes.. which means they have grown on then as well. To be honest other than a few she new... she enjoyed the set of new stuff better than the old classics... which is a good sign for the band I think.. New Rush stuff has always taken a while to grow on me.. lol You bet!! For a while there... I don't think we listened to anything else... 'cept maybe April Wine!! LOL WE were lucky.. one of the guys we went with goes to alot of concerts and is on a few lists for good tickies I guess.. I was happy and to be honest for the experience I didnt think it was too much $$$... In my heyday, I'd spend that at the bar in a heart beat (pre kids... LOL) Ya I saw Santa.. lol... front and center with ear plugs in!! Did you see the little woman to his right.... she jumped up and down throughout the whole concert.. lol... never stopped once.. and knew EVERY word to EVERY SONG... even all the new stuff!! She was 80lbs and couldn't have been more than 4 feet tall!! AWESOME!!

I caught this one outta the same spot...

A few months ago, I had a really good friend that I've known since Grade 5 call me up and ask me if I wanted to go to the Rush Concert at the Corel-scotia-whateveritis center in Ottawa. He said he had some great seats. He's Jadens godfather and asked us if we wanted to go. Now.. and I know its unfashionable, but Rush has to not only be my favorite band, but growing up listening to thier music in rural northern ontario, never imagining I would ever get the chance to see them put them firmly in my things I wanna do folder.. Now I've seen them a few times before, in Ottawa and Albany, but this time I got to bring Jaden and our seats were 2nd Row Center..... yup 2nd row center. Now I've been to alot of concerts and I have never ever had seating this good, and ill tell ya.. its a whole different experience when the band is right there..... Its another when you get to treat your kid (who loves them) to her first concert in grand style!! heres a couple of pictures... man we we ever close... theres a couple of videos up on YuoTube and in the one you can see us... it was fantastic. They played better than ever before and a three hour concert with no opening act gave them plenty of time to play some really good oldies and also keep it fresh with some new stuff (9 new songs). They may be getting old (who isnt) but they are still rockin' and still putting out new stuff... which is more than I can say for most bands that started in the 70's!! At supper one of the couples we went with asked jaden what here favorite songs were.. she told them Freewill and of course Tom Sawyer, and we were delighted cause both were on the play list... Heres a couple of pics... I know they did TWO shows in Toronto.. anyone else see 'em??

Ahhhh... you guys and your fancy rods..... lol

Very Nice. Sounds like a great day!!

Well... thats just fantastic!! Hang out here enough.. things seem to organize" themselves!!

welcome aboard!!

Ya... hopefully ill be revamping the news section soon....

Hey... that tray was missing outta my boat at Lakair!!!!!

LOL... wow.... hey Cory... welcome back!! I think everyones expressed their opinion..... Ill lock this down before someone starts the "yo mama" jokes...

Hey Lew... I said GOOD DAY!!! LOL

hahahahaha... I like that answer....

Last year I was told the upgrade was needed and I said... nah... At the beginning of the summer I cancel most of my programming cause were never here anyway.. saves me about 100 bucks over the course of the summer... when I called to get my channels back, I saw the wfn package (the same company runs all the channels in that packages I think) and just for the heck of it i asked if i could get it and they said yes that the package had been switched to the main satelite and ... ta da... in 5 min. i had it all...

That would be me... you dont need the equipment upgrade anymore to get wfn now.. i got it and the fight network and the soccer channel.. and something else for 5 bucks amionth... the "catfighting" o the fight channel is worth the 5 bucks all by itself...

I have a commercial running on WFN... has anyone seen it lately.. I get run of network time so its on sporadically... heres what it looks like?? http://www.ontariofishingreels.com/OFC-wfn.mov I just got WFN and havent seen it yet.

My thoughts are with ya... I have a buddy like that.. I can't imagine loosing that good a friend.

I received this today.. I think its worth a discussion here.... what do you think??
