Ft Reno
« on: July 17, 2003, 02:03:00 pm »
Lord, it looks gorgeous outside.  Looks like perfect Ft. Reno weather, but I'm not familiar with the lineup:
 CANYON, GARLAND OF HOURS,
 THE FATALES
 
 Any thoughts?

Hey, we're not being helpful at all!  I know a couple folks mentioned Canyon as a possible opener for Idlewild, so someone must know about them.  Alas, I can give no guidance, though I may head out just because it's so nice today.

Oh no, Bags, Michael Bolton was VERY helpful.  He reminded me I need to condition tonight.  But I'm with you--it's so nice out, I might risk an evening of no-talent ass clowns.

every band has to start somewhere. Fort Reno is a showcase for local talent and is free. What are you going to do, ask for a refund.
 
 I can understand being disparaging after seeing a show, "here is 25 cents go and phone your mum and tell her you will never be a rock star" And I can understand slagging off a band if you paid good money to see them and they were bad.
 
 I dont see the point on ragging on inexperienced local bands playing Fort Reno, that is what its all about. And for what its worth from what I remembr I think canyon are Ok.

In my opinion....
 
 Canyon kind of suck.
 
 They aren't that bad but not worth a walk across the street.
 
 I'll stay home and file my nails and play some good CDs.

I say go.  It'll be a beautiful evening and you may end up liking one of the bands.
 
 For a band that allegedly sucks, Canyon sure seems to get a lot of gigs.  I'm tempted to see them some time just to see why they suck.

Go for it. Maybe you'll turn into a big Alt-Country/Canyon fan.
 
 And as you say, it is a very nice evening. Much, much closer for you too to take a chance.

Fatales were alright. Walked out during Canyon, pissed on my elementary school with the boys. Paige was there, she left during Canyon too. I thought the slide guitar would be enthralling, but no dice.
