AprilWyne has Roller, Caught in a Crossfire, Bad sign of a Moon just to name a few, they are a truly great band that really brings an effort to every show, this would really be good for MDJ, just been listening to CAVO! Wow MDJ GREAT pick up! they are amazing! Really psyched up for jam

If you could only listen to one album to ready yourself for April Wine, I would recommend Harder Faster.......
Barenaked Ladies!!!

We are so looking forward to April Wine. You guys will love them. A great Canadian band for years, and we will be bringing some "Canadian Beer". Sounds like Camp Howler gets a taste. Only visited the camp once late one evening last year and it was quite blurry by then. Looking forward to that also. Any brand preference? My fav. is Great West, an award winning Sask. product. We will bring some other samples. we can bring 24 ea. so that would be 96. Should be good for a day or two.

Hi powerman. Hope I didn't come off like a beggar ;) I don't know what I like. I shall seek the help of my Canadian friends... I'll try anything once, but it it's gritty or dark, ah hell, who'm I kidding, I'll drink it. Award winning Great West sound good... I'm not picky... and again, not a beggar... Anything I can bring you?! :D :D

Davage, do you remember the day you & Paulie brought me 1)spiked coffee, a 2)Molson (I think) and a 3)other Canadian beer -- I was triple-fisting it, IN MY JAMMIES, when Mr. B & the gang came by to say hello. Only in Camp Howler...

Just downloaded Cavo-Bright Lights*Dark Days. Wow. Love it. Im not a big fan of the 3DoorsDown, Hinder, 3Days Grace, Candlebox, etc scene either. I like to be familiar with the band before i see them. Was less so, but still pleasantly surprised at 3DG too. So far not so much for Hinder. Really looking forward to Cavo now:-)
I'm very important. I have many leather-bound books and my apartment smells of rich mahogany.

The last few posts have warmed my heart. Not to get into a whole there-for-the-bands vs there's-more-to-MDJ-than-bands "debate" (for lack of a better word) but it's so nice to see a calmer page, kinder, gentler. Just...nice.

powerman, you got it! Where do you camp? If you've been to CH you know the way (if you remember LOL) so hope to see ya there! Come by & say hi. I look almost like the girl in the pic >>> (I'm the one without the beard :D ) I hafta take 'er easy especially Jam Thursday cuz we'll have all our Meet n G's and I cannot miss Kid Rock!

Chagen, that's what we need to do -- start getting to know the bands we don't. I have just the person who can burn some songs for me (owes me favor, kinda ;) ). I like that attitude, too. Ya know, just dig in and "deal" (again, for lack of a better word) with the bands we have for Jam XXI. You may just find your very newest most favorite band. I know at least most of us can agree, there's been a "new" band we knew nothing about who just blew us away, so.... happy listening!!

I am sooooooo glad it's Friday! Have a rockin' weekend, Jammers!

Cups Up

Shame they couldn't find that last Saturday band but it really is looking to be a pretty decent lineup.

Totally agree, it will still be good though.

Hi Lisa. Yes, I remember you standing outside in your Jammies with tons of booze on the go. Over the years we have brought Labatts Blue and Molson Canadian. Everyone's favorite seems to be Molson Canadian, likely because it is clearly labeled as being Canadian Beer. I've found that the Labatts beer seems to sit around in the cooler for a while because nobody knows what it is. I've decided that for the next Jam, I will be bringing Molson Canadian only :) The funny thing is that we actually buy that beer in Michigan as an import. It is about 1/3rd the price to buy it in Michigan compared to what it sells for in Canada. Last time we crossed the border in Sault Ste Marie Michigan, stopped at the first grocery store and gas station and were able to buy 30 cans of beer for $14.99. 30 Cans in Ontario sells for $48.95 - the exact same cans in Michigan were only $14.99. That's why I only drink beer when I am at Moondance or when I am in Winnipeg for work, and somebody else is picking up the tab :)

Yes - it is great to see that people are starting to look forward to Moondance for the 'fun' instead of bickering about the bands. Heck, even people who aren't attending this year like myself, Ian and TyGuy keep checking in. That shows that the 'people' really are a big part of the Jam.
