[+} User Info... | correct mr. croy, the ballroom is located on blanshard street, by earls. 1745 is the proper address i believe. it's the old brown publishing building. - Wed, 11 May 2005 10:28am | ||
[+} User Info... | tickets on sale tomorrow! - Wed, 11 May 2005 2:27pm | ||
[+} User Info... | hey, we just got a last minute cancellation on the venue. that's the way things work out sometimes, i guess. i'd like to go ahead with this show, but that will involve finding another low cost venue, or raising the ticket price. if you have any info on where we can do this show, let me know! thanks! - Wed, 11 May 2005 4:20pm | ||
Peter Gardner User Info... | Curling Club?????? (probably out of price range) Gary Oak? My basement? - Wed, 11 May 2005 8:59pm | ||
[+} User Info... | we are thinking of little fernwood, anyone done a show there recently? i can't remember the price. but i need to get it figured out by tomorrow. help! - Fri, 13 May 2005 10:15am | ||
darcy User Info... | Maybe it was just to person who I got ahold of there, but she said there was a 1 band limit per night. so you just have to put all the bands under one name, and jam out. Though, I do think it was just the person I got ahold of. - Fri, 13 May 2005 10:46am | ||
[+} User Info... | i think there's a time limit actually. $75 for the night, after 6 pm. i don't think anyone can restrict how many acts there are, just how long you can be there. i know for a fact that the raygun and another band just played there a few weeks ago. - Fri, 13 May 2005 2:00pm | ||
[+} User Info... | sorry about not having the tickets at ditch yet guys. the show WILL go ahead and WILL be at little fernwood.. i'm going down on monday to pay the deposit. see you on the 22nd. - Sat, 14 May 2005 11:58am | ||
RollingRocks User Info... | Holla. This show is going to be tight boyee! - Sun, 15 May 2005 4:20pm | ||
[+} User Info... | PS. anyone reading this would you pay an extra dollar to see this show at the gibson auditorium at camosun college, or would you rather have 20 less people and see it at little fernwood for 4 dollars? - Mon, 16 May 2005 11:49am | ||
duncan User Info... | Aidan, the gibson auditorium is wicked. Ive put on two shows there and the sound each time is great. It comes with stage lights too (not colored). There are 2 problems with the venue however: 1. there are some seats, and some people find that as an excuse to sit down rather than utilize the flat space. 2. some people are addicted to the typical all age venues, and won't come to camosun. I'd pay 5 for a gibson show. - Mon, 16 May 2005 11:53am | ||
[+} User Info... | i was wondering: how much? that would really help me out! - Mon, 16 May 2005 2:39pm | ||
cooper User Info... | I was at the show this past Friday and was impressed with the venue as far as sound, stage, and lighting are concerned. The seating problem could be solved by covering them with big sheets, maybe leaving the first few rows open. I would also pay at least $5 for a Gibson show. Hell, I pay a lot more than that to watch my philosophy prof babble on about acupuncture in that same auditorium. - Mon, 16 May 2005 3:27pm | ||
Peter Gardner User Info... | So many venue changes, so little time. Commusin College is such a pain in the ass to get to, I dont know if I could make it ... - Mon, 16 May 2005 5:10pm | ||
duncan User Info... | aidan: you have mail. x2. word. - Mon, 16 May 2005 6:13pm | ||
[+} User Info... | just got them. stoked man. and peter. it actually takes less time to get to camosun than fernwood. the number 14 (our favourite bus) goes by every 12 minutes! i haven't decided between the two, but both are equally bus-friendly. how do people feel about the two? little fernwood VS the gibson auditorium! - Mon, 16 May 2005 8:02pm | ||

john User Info... | its my dream as a band to have gibson auditoreum the premier all age venue in victoria. I believe it is probably the best venue in all of victoria for bands to play at. if you want 1) stage 2) lights 3) great sound 4) easy access 5) and a damn balcony taboot. its the place to be. Id say it makes any band sound its best. LOVE. - Mon, 16 May 2005 10:54pm | ||
[+} User Info... | i'm still unsure if this is a safe gamble.. i really want to ensure that an out-of-town amazing touring band gets some bread in the end. little fernwood has it's perks: free, well-known, low capacity gibson has amazing features but! is unknown. - Tue, 17 May 2005 10:58am | ||
