What, did they finally realize that their 'regulars' and country music just doesnt pay the bills like punk and metal? - Fri, 19 Dec 2003 11:05am

Very cool to get the feedback on the Cambie. I took over bookings and promotions in October. Country just wasn't paying the bills, so I honoured the bookings for a couple of months and am now going with rock. Check it out - reno's, new stage and sound, wicked drink specials, and great bands!
There is still mechanical bull riding on Thursdays and a jam on Sundays - so if ya need your country fix - those are the days.
The weekends rock and look for a jam of that nature coming soon. - Mon, 22 Dec 2003 2:08am

Bull at an AWT show?!? It works :)

Wow, what made the Cambie change their mind with booking independant acts?!? I even hear the ads on local radio for that place?!? But what bugs me, can't make the gigs there for the next 2 weeks :( - Tue, 23 Dec 2003 1:02am

I was there pick up my friend the other night - they are redoing the floor in there now too - should be pretty sweet. I will say though when I worked there a couple years ago the country nights would slay in tips virs the punk / metal nights - so dont be a bunch of cheep asses - tip the waitresses - cuz everyone knows the cambie is the best place to party in the "hood". - Tue, 23 Dec 2003 10:44pm

Check out New Year's at the Cambie - 3 bands, champagne, a great time - $10 - Rant Music, Armchair Cynics, 3 Night Stand. and no fabreeze needed - the stage is completely recovered, built a drum riser, new sound system, better lights. The floors are done, the place is painted, the women's washroom is done up - it's got a whole new attitude. - Fri, 26 Dec 2003 3:30pm
