Are the B'ys of Great Big Sea TRYING to torture me? A contest to have an Actual Kitchen Party with the Actual Members of Great Big Sea, the stuff of several of my LITERAL dreams? AIGH! See my bouzouki? See my guitar? See how forlorn they're looking just at the mere thought that somebody who is not ME might get to do this?

I'll sit over here and passionately wish I lived in Vancouver now. All of you Canadian GBS fans on my Friends list, if ANY of you get to do this, try to break it to me gently so I don't keel over from envy, okay? ;)

ETA: Does the GBS management realize how many former members of Three Good Measures would KILL for the chance to have a Kitchen Party with them? I mean, hells bells, we DID do a pretty damned decent job with Mari-Mac and General Taylor and Jolly Butcher, if I do say so myself, even four years after the fact! Sniff! Stupid too far away Canada!

Gao yang jong duh goo yang.

That is not fair, damn it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't think I want to know. I'll just cry. Loud enough from them to hear me in Canada.

CRAP!

OMG!!!!!!!!! You were a part of this group?!?!?!?! I found this copy of General Taylor ages ago and emailed someone on the site, asking if they had found sheet music or something, because my madrigal group wanted to sing this and wondered if they would share what they knew!!!

They wouldn't, but still...I was just SO AMAZED. My group had did a rough-ish attempt (on the fly, while waiting to enter one of their concerts - we got folks all singing LOL), but nowhere as cool as this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes. All Alan's fault. Bob's and Sean's, too, damn it.

GAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So depressing. Post in [livejournal.com profile] greatbigsea!!! We need to work fast on this. I'm still not sure if I'll even be able to see the b'ys when they swing by. Four times, now. I swear, someone out there just doesn't want me to see my b'ys any more. :(

I used to see them when no one knew them and they played for FREE!!!! I feel slammed....

Well, it's not quite the same, but it does say on the contest page that if you live outside of those cities that you could win a trip for two to come to a kitchen party on St. Patrick's Day with the aforementioned B'ys in attendence.

You'd just have to find a way to listen to the broadcast. :)

I had myself a pretty good pout over that yesterday when I saw it. Actually, I'm probably still pouting to tell the truth :) They should at least put the warning that it's open only to Canada residents on the front page, rather than halfway through the contest details. :(

Oh, and totally random here...figured out another way to make the é It's Alt 1 3 0 Saves some keystrokes and works in every program I've tried so far.

Why don't we say we live in Canada and when we win, we can move there? Or crash at a friends! I know at least three people who live in Canada! >;)
