One step closer - I picked up the raffle tickets today...but damn! Name tags are pricy? Would people be OK with green painters' tape instead? I have some of that around here somewhere.

Surfrider of Vancouver is confirmed to attend and will be bringing t-shirts and hoodies for us to raffle off...(or just give away, not sure which). They will bring some banners as well and info about the foundation and sign-up info, etc.

Had no luck with the local media. I might try Stuart Derdane (can't spell his name) from the Province and BCTV...Steve Darling, too perhaps (from BCTV)...

And parking will be tight downtown that night...International Auto Show, Rascal Flats, and Mamma Mia will all be going on April 2nd...

eight days to go....

Craziness... and I think here, in the foothills in Alberta (I can literally see the mountains from my back deck) we may have set a "Lack" of snow record! I cannot recall a time where I saw more brown grass than this winter.
Also, I went to Quebec (& saw a little bit of Quebec city) back in '03... we were there right as Carnival Bon Homme was ending that year, but it was so GORGEOUS... I want to go back in the summer!
Looking forward to seeing you there!

I possibly have 2 van night 1 tickets available... Orchestra row Y. My cost on ebay was $100 a piece for them (I can bring proof) I'm selling them for exactly what I paid... PM me ifyou're interested.

search threads..."vancouver night 1 tickets available" for details on why they're up for grabs!

See y'all in a week!

75-80 peeps!

Ummmm Stuart (#50) isn't going! I think he was trying to be funny. I'll be there though!

chitty

Has an event been planned for night 2? Anyone have a spare ticket for night 1? Would definetely like to pre-party and chat with other jammers before night 2.
I thought I heard on the Fox that Todd, Karen and Danger will be at a pub, I am assuming it is the Kingston since I listened half way through, for both nights. Anyone confirm that?

I think Jeff O'Neil was talking about the pre-party on the fox this morning! I missed the first part so I didn't hear the name of the pub mentioned, but he was talking about listening to PJ and Into the Wild CD's to win and he did say the word 'pre-party'... Anyone else hear it? It was about 7:45am.

Well that would be pretty cool...I emailed them twice and phoned them, but they never got back to me - so if they want to be there and are chatting it up on the radio - excellent! And if they bring stuff to win, even better!

See you kids next week
