    Eddie loves Keith's! :D

    See, that's why Eddie and the boys have to play Halifax again, and not somewhere in New Brunswick. Can you imagine Eddie drinking and groovin' with a case of Moosepiss ? No. Me neither. He woulda taken a swig of that shit, gotten sick, blown a few chunks and vowed to never return to the Maritimes. It woulda been a disaster. Didn't you hear what he said last year (?): "If this is the worst beer I've ever tasted, you're in big fucking trouble." Ahem...need I say any more ?!

    As it now stands we have a chance to see the boys return - even if the chances are slim. But a slim chance is better than none, which is exactly where we woulda stood if Eddie hadda tested any of that toxic gooch-juice. So lets all thank the Lord for that act of Providence back in 1820, and the fateful consumption of Alexander's brew last September 22nd. Talk about synergy !! And Jesus fuck, it will happen again, or my name isn't Truthmonger !!!!

    FYI: you can buy Keith's in NB. (i know you probably know this already, but i live in NB and as crappy as it can seem sometimes, it's really not that bad of a place, and we can't be judged on moosepiss alone...there are many fabulous microbreweries here too...Picaroons, Pumphouse...)

    besides, I live here...that should make it fabulous enough god damnit! ;)

    Oh, I'm just shootin the shit. New Brunswick is part of the Maritimes - so how could it be anything other than kick-ass ?! Now lanners, you know I wouldn't dis New Brunswick. And I'll tell ya this - there's a shitload of PJ fans in N.B., so it can't be all bad !!!

    Yes, I did know you can buy Keith's in N.B.. I was merely laying it on thick for purposes of chewing the fat 'n all. Its funny, when I hear you talk about the east coast, it makes me want to move back there. Badly. If I had a way to make a good buck I probably would. And it gets worse the older I get. That's why its such a drag when there was no PJ down east this summer. I was hoping to make a real trip out of it.

    Hey, you got any bright ideas about how to make some big dough and live the life of Riley while livin' on the east coast ?! That seems to be my goal in life now.

    other than living the life illegal (or working as the new Keith's spokesperson) making big bucks on the East Coast is only possible through winning the lottery...although Paul McCartney seems to think there's a lot of money to be made in eco-tourism around these parts. (any arguments about this topic should go straight to the Moving Train!)

    i kid. no i don't. yes i do. no i don't. do i?

    thanks to unsociable!! i had not seen that yet! :)
    Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
    As she slams the door in his drunken face
    And now he stands outside
    And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
    He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
    What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
    Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
    And his tears fall and burn the garden green

    I think I've seen it all now. Was that Eddie doing the moonwalk as he and the band were leaving the stage after the 1st encore in Halifax ?! That's what he seems to be doing on that google video. Pretty funny.

    The longevity of the fanview thread and this one are all the more reason why the band NEEDS to come back to Halifax. What other North American PJ show has had this kind of effect on it's fans. When you listen to the Halifax boot you almost get the impression from Ed's rants that they would really like to come back someday...hopefully soon.

    The closest show to me right now is Boston and I'm kind of on the fence about going especially since they haven't announced all the dates yet. I'm not sure if I could drag my wife to Boston again for another concert since we've been there twice in the last 6 months. Decisions, decisions!
