I'm just rushing out the door right now, but here's a very very loose schedule of BMEfest. Remember, it is still just a BBQ, with some fun extras tossed in, so the vast majority of time is just socializing and hanging out with friends!
10:30 AM – The Magic Bus leaves Toronto from Union Station to Tweed.Noonish – Astromen are GO! Feel free to arrive whenever though.
1:00 PM (or so) – The Magic Bus arrives.
Afternoon – Various bands; Monroe (via Dia), Teenage Junk (via Dan_Toronto), Dead Mazi (via Dreadboy), Fetchez La Vache (via snackninja), etc… The specific scheduling is flexible. Sound engineering by thatsenseofpar
6 – 7 PM – Crane suspension show. All of the suspension (and related) acts are being co-ordinated by Allen Falkner of TSD. He is who you should contact and work with if you are involved, although free to contact me as well. But he's the primary.
6:30 PM – Another band plays (see above; probably Monroe).
7:30 PM – The Pain Olympics – A round robin elimination tournament of pain and physical endurance based challenges. The first set of challenges are determined by the judges and doms to whittle down the playing field, with the second set being a series of cross-challenges. Open entry from the audience.
8:30 PM – Organical (via Mercury, etc.)
9:30 PM – Fireworks Show (assuming it's dark)
10:00 PM – Fire Show (by Orbax and monstar, etc.)
10:30 PM – The Legendary Klopeks (via Lemon Kurri Klopek, Sweet Pepper Klopek, leatherface667, etc.)
11:15 PM (or so) – The Magic Bus leaves Tweed for Toronto.
I know that I have missed people and events and maybe even bands in that list!!!! So if I've missed you it's because of my self-induced brain damage, not because I don't think you're the coolest dude in the world. Please contact me if I've forgotten you so I can ammend the schedule! Also, I made up some postcards for people coming to BMEfest (the real deal too, not just cheap printouts from my computer on an inkjet or anything). Maybe a bit corny, but I don't mind that. Figure some people need something to send back to their parents to let them know they weren't off at some underwater basket weaving class or a meth-amphetamine symposium or whatever they've convinced themselves you do from listening at your door.
Well, I'm off…
