Acres Fall Tour Blog #1
“I hope we get the ‘Spider-Man’ room!” – Shane Deyotte, as he walks by all of the themed rooms in a Prestige Inn We are back on the road again with Jobfest 2012! It’s so nice to be back. As you may or may not know, earlier this year (April – July, to be exact) we toured the northern communities of British Columbia with a BC government funded program called Jobfest 2012, bringing online career applications and options to young people all over the province. We were the hired entertainment, and it was just fantastic to be able to connect with so many awesome people along the way, and also, to be able to perform in so many areas of the province, places like Haida Gwaii and northern towns along >> read more

“I have 4 stage-moves when playing the bass: ‘The Swoop,’ ‘The Dan Ball 1-2-3,’ ‘The Bobble-Head’ and I always like to finish with ‘The Final Stroke.'” – Dan Ball, a man of many charms The magic is definitely happening, and depending on what your interpretation of “magic” is, it’s a good thing and not gross at all! For those of you who are not aware, we have been living in a house located in South-East Edmonton for the past two weeks writing new songs and recording them in demo format for a brand new album. Hazeldean, the locals call the area, and so far so good.
