West Coast Jam #2

[Kerry Brown]

Saturday, October 14 in Squamish, BC, Canada

My crazy friends from the Sunshine Coast want to rip up Squamish once again. You're all invited. All levels of player welcome. All types of instruments, even bass and vocals are welcome. I'll post more details as we get closer to the date. Here's a picture from the first jam last May.

Last time I invited a couple of bass players but they didn't show up. I tried to play bass for a few songs but all I can do is keep time with the root and the five.

Did you offer free food or rum? No? Well there's your answer Bassists need bribes

We had beer and herb but no food. My mistake. All the bass players I know are big into the herb. That may be why they didn't show. They forgot.

Bumping this to the top to remind everyone to come out and jam. It's a beautiful one hour drive from Vancouver.

When I was a lot younger and this highway was a way less busy, twisty, two laner I used to bomb up and down it on a Yamaha 650. It's still a nice ride with hundreds of motorcycles on the weekend. The police confiscate a few every weekend for excessive speeding.

 

[eSGEe]

CONFISCATE!?!?!?!? WTF? you dont just get a ticket, pay a fine, etc....... CONFISCATE........oh Lordy me I might NOT want t ride in Canuckistan

If you are driving in a dangerous manner they confiscate them for a few days to a couple of weeks in addition to heavy fines. That highway is crazy. On a nice summer day you get a pack of ten to fifteen bikes racing at double the speed of the traffic. It's not all four lanes. There are some two lane stretches with blind corners and cliffs down to the ocean. The are several biker fatalities a year. I'd be happy with letting Darwin have his way but quite often they hit cars or cars go off the road trying to avoid the bikes in the wrong lane.

AH yes speed is one thing reckless driving and endangering others is a totally different animal.....
