Mudcatter Jeri is coming to spend Christmas with us in Toronto. We'd like to get Toronto Catters together to meet Jeri and play a few songs on Monday, December 27th, around 8:15 at the Tranzac.

Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: catspaw49 Date: 21 Dec 99 - 01:22 PM Jeri will be there with her fiddle and her dragonfly hooters? Take pictures Boots and send me some huh? Seriously, I'd love to have a group shot of that gang. And check your e-mail on Christmas morning...I'll send a picture of the morning here....got this new camera and if I can figure out the software........... Spaw |

Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: MMario Date: 21 Dec 99 - 01:29 PM I bet you're taking the northern route over there too, aren't you Jeri..... dang....maybe I could get "sick" the 27th..... |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Peter T. Date: 21 Dec 99 - 03:46 PM Fantastic. Will be there. yours, Peter T. |

Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Jeri Date: 21 Dec 99 - 04:21 PM MMario, I'm not taking the "northwest passage" - I'm going through NY. I'm down in the bottom of NH, so it appears quicker that way. I'm not going to enjoy driving that far, but I'm really looking forward to being there. ...and I'm really wishing I had one of those minidisc thingies. Duckboots' e-mail address rescued and turned into a clicky (I hope): e-mail Duckboots |

Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: MMario Date: 21 Dec 99 - 04:40 PM so you'll be driving out the thruway, eh? It's not too bad a trip. I've done toronto round trip in a day with 9 hours of Ren-faire between the two legs (and a movie shoot the next morning....), so though you'll be coming from further, at least you won't be turning right around and driving back..... |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Rick Fielding Date: 21 Dec 99 - 05:01 PM Thanks Jeri. I guess Mrs. Smartypants doesn't know her blue clickies yet. Actually, any catters in Ontario who are close enough to drive in to the Tranzac are greatly welcome. It's at the corner of Brunswick and Bloor. What Jeri doesn't know yet is that we're going to ask her to play a couple of tunes on the radio earlier that night. Don't tell her. Rick |

Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: bbelle Date: 21 Dec 99 - 05:39 PM I'm so jealous! Well, now that I've telephone himself in Toronto and talked to him, does that make me sort of an unofficial Toronto mudcatter? BTW, Rick ... talked to Stan Jay today and a case would have to be built for my B-25, however, instead, I'm going to buy a Union Blue Gig Bag, which he says will fit in the overhead and I can carry it over my shoulder. At a little less than 5 feet tall, it's a good thing I don't have a big, huge guitar! Thanks for the hookup on mandoweb.com moonchild |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Jeri Date: 21 Dec 99 - 06:19 PM Rick...fiddle? What fiddle? Oops - I knew I forgot to put something in the car. Jeri, who has trouble getting through a tune when anyone can hear her, and doesn't even want to think about RADIO!!!! |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Tony Burns Date: 21 Dec 99 - 06:22 PM I'll be there (and I don't have to go to work the next day. Now, if I can get my harp player to show up.... Come on Toronto Mudders, let's party! |

Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Duckboots Date: 21 Dec 99 - 07:56 PM Where are you Toronto Mudcatters, have you all gone away for Christmas already? Duckboots |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Micca Date: 21 Dec 99 - 08:01 PM I am so envious of you guys, I was in Toronto in August just past visiting my in-laws who live in Scarborough, before I joined this happy band of Brethern and Sistern and the ONLY live music I heard was at some place called "the Jester" I think, and it made punk sound intellectual. It was all this ambient stuff,you know like taping a tea tray dropped down a staircase and looping the tape for 10 minutes. Dreadful, but my Bro-in-law likes it. Long live "Growers Cider" and look out for next time we visit. BTW the previous visit was during Mariposa and who was on Martin Carthy. |

Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Little Neophyte Date: 21 Dec 99 - 09:42 PM Here is one more Toronto Mudcatter to join in the celebration. Sounds like much fun. Bonnie |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Rick Fielding Date: 21 Dec 99 - 11:05 PM Hey Micca, where do your inlaws live and WHY did you go to the Jester? We could have taken you to any number of great folky bars. We're at Kingston rd. and Fallingbrook. Rick and Duckboots |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Escamillo Date: 22 Dec 99 - 12:34 AM Please keep us informed on what happens that night. We'll enjoy it from very distant places of the world, thanks to this great invention. Un abrazo - Andrés |

Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: WyoWoman Date: 22 Dec 99 - 01:23 AM I'm a Toronto Mudcateer in my heart of hearts. So I guess on that level I'll be with you in spirit. Which sort of sucks here on the physical plane, but ... oh, well. Please take photos and post them so we can all join the fun, vicariously, as most of my fun these days is wont to be. BTW, Alice and I met last week in Montana and her son Ryan took photos of us. So, if those came out, we'll put them up on the album as well. Lift a toast in our names. Or name a toast in our lifts. Or ... Oh, whatever. Have fun. WyoWoman |

Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Jeremiah McCaw Date: 22 Dec 99 - 01:54 AM Hmmm ... Might one intrude if one is from the opposite side of the city from Scar-beria? Depending on when I get back from Kingston, I got a fair shot at being able to drop by. Onliest question is: should I bring the Glen Reid bass, or the utterly weird and comical-looking (particularly when I'm wearing it) Ashbory bass? |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Date: 22 Dec 99 - 02:05 AM Bring a largemouth bass and the two of you would have something in common. |

Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Steve Latimer Date: 22 Dec 99 - 09:11 AM Going to try to make it in from the cultural wasteland of Whitby, hope to see you there. Steve |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Micca Date: 22 Dec 99 - 09:54 AM Rick, my in-laws live just off St Clair near Pharmacy, and the only reason I went to "The Jester2 was my Bro-in-law was going. I wish I had known you guys then, Maybe next time? I will be with you in spirit. BTW do you know a pub called "the royal oak" I think, it has about 200 single malt whiskys!!!!!! I will check the name later. |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Steve Latimer Date: 22 Dec 99 - 10:43 AM Okay Torontonians, my curiosity had been peeked, where is The Jester and what's it all about. I don't know the Royal Oak, but The Academy of Spherical Arts was listed as having the largest selection of Single Malts in Toronto, I've even sampled a few there. It's a very upscale pool hall with antique tables and furniture, lots of art by Toronto artists and great music, usually old Jazz and Blues, super atmosphere. I try to get there whenever I'm in Toronto, and I'm not really a pool player. Has anyone else been there? |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Noah Zacharin Date: 22 Dec 99 - 11:49 AM i'll be returning from n.y.c. that evening, but i will come by as early as i can. i'll bring a guitar and a few bucks for beer. hooray! |

Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Rick Fielding Date: 22 Dec 99 - 12:01 PM Large or small basses are welcome. Duckboots (too lazy to change cookies) |

Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Big Mick Date: 22 Dec 99 - 01:10 PM This Internet thing sucks........I would almost rather be ignorant of these events.........Jeri, I will be there in spirits, or be in spirits in desire of being there......or some damn thing. Shit....canna make Anna's, canna make this one.......life gits teejus, don't it???? Maybe I can call Rick's show and we can sing together.........LOL. Have a ball, you will love this woman, y'all...........and quit frettin', Jeri, I have heard your music and it is great....my guess is that Rick will jump right in with you...... All the best, Big Mick |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Little Neophyte Date: 22 Dec 99 - 01:23 PM Jeremiah, I believe this invitation extends to Scarberians. No matter how far you would be coming from, you are a Toronto Mudcatter. BB |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Rick Fielding Date: 22 Dec 99 - 01:40 PM Bonnie, Jeremiah is a proud Mississaugan! As far as we're concerned, anyone within Concorde rage is welcome. Mick, we'll keep a seat for you. Where are Michael K and Michael Miland? Was lookin forward to seein' them compare their collections! Or Davey? Or Walnut? Laura? Now who else have I forgotten? |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: catspaw49 Date: 22 Dec 99 - 01:48 PM Jeremiah is a rattlesnake? DON'T FORGET PICTURES DAMMIT!!!!!!!! Spaw - and the "anon" thing still pisses me off |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: MMario Date: 22 Dec 99 - 01:54 PM y'know, if I weren't working I would be tempted..... |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Jeri Date: 22 Dec 99 - 03:14 PM MMario, aren't you starting to feel just a little sick? ;-) Mick, how far away are you? Detroit looks like about a four hour trip from Toronto. |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: MMario Date: 22 Dec 99 - 04:56 PM monday after a long weekend? Jeri - If I'm not DEAD my boss would find out.....(believe me...she is a great boss, but you can't fool her for a minute) |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: catspaw49 Date: 22 Dec 99 - 05:01 PM So what is Mario, Mick, Rick/Boots/Jeri and say Peter and all doing Sunday? Could be a shot for you Mario. Spaw |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: MMario Date: 22 Dec 99 - 05:05 PM 'Spaw - great idea, except I am already booked sunday.... life was so much simpler when I HAD no social life outside of my own family..... |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Jeremiah McCaw Date: 22 Dec 99 - 05:08 PM Mississaugan? For shame, sir. I be from Oakville. I think that makes me an Oak-villain!
|
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Peter T. Date: 22 Dec 99 - 05:25 PM We're spending Sunday praying for your soul, Spaw. We are going to start early with penitential prayer, warm up with orisons to the Blessed Virgin, crawl on our knees up several flights of stairs (at the Filtration Plant which is a bit like the St. Joseph's Oratory for Toronto), flagellate wading birds, wail, make offerings to the 8 gods in the 12 directions, and generally plead for you, without expectation but just as a kind of seasonal thing, you know. That should make for a full Boxing Day, and then we intend to boogie. yours, Peter T. |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: catspaw49 Date: 22 Dec 99 - 05:53 PM What...No Antiphon? Damn! And today's was some kind of genital thing too....you could have used it ya' know? Just a few notes of prayer for Joe Smackers.......or Joe Offer for that matter. Oh well........... Spaw |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: MK Date: 22 Dec 99 - 07:23 PM Rick: I will do my best to be there. |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Rick Fielding Date: 22 Dec 99 - 10:05 PM Seems it's about 4 to go. So sorry Jeremiah..Oakvillians should never be confused with mere Mississaugians. Oh c'mon Mmario, and Mick, what's a few hour drive? There'll be plenty of accomodation. You too Spaw, although of course you're no longer a novelty, so we'll expect you to DO something rather than just being YOU! Rick |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: MMario Date: 22 Dec 99 - 10:10 PM it's tempting, but my family has informed me if I do go, I can expect to find myself with no room at the inn when I return....(see, I was thinking about it enough to check with "she who must be obeyed" - which in my case is (big)sister and (more importantly) landlord.....) |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: catspaw49 Date: 22 Dec 99 - 10:21 PM DO something? And I was a NOVELTY? My gawd, I feel so...so......so CHEAP!!! How could I have been so blind? I feel so used, so dirty.........What's that smell?...Oh, just Cletus....Anyway, I have to go and see a therapist.....My frail ego has been mortally shattered.............. Spaw |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: MichaelM Date: 22 Dec 99 - 11:40 PM aaaaarghhh! Alright I've been tempted out of the lurking bushes. Unfortunately Linda & I have a post-Christmas thing that is inescapable. I will mark in the Tranzac if we have time after and hope you have the endurance of the saints. Michael |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Big Mick Date: 23 Dec 99 - 02:01 AM If I didn't have a very important meeting the next morning at 9 am, I would be giving VERY serious consideration to this one......but I cannot........shit. |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Rick Fielding Date: 23 Dec 99 - 11:05 AM Good one Michael. I wanna see you and Michael K duel with pearl inlay at 30 paces. He doesn't own a travel guitar, so right off the bat "Yours is bigger than his"! Catspaw, I'll call your therapist....and raise you a Jungian. Rick |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Peter T. Date: 23 Dec 99 - 11:11 AM Rick was one of those shanghai Naval recruiters in a previous lifetime. ("How could any man -- BIFF!!! -- not want to take the King's shilling?" -- opens sack, stuffs comatose folk singer in).... yours, Peter T. |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Rick Fielding Date: 23 Dec 99 - 12:27 PM Biff was always my alter ego Peter. Then I'd have a Miller or two and forget it! Rick |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: sophocleese Date: 23 Dec 99 - 12:37 PM Sounds like it could be a fun night. I'll be visiting the inlaws 3 hours drive north of there and as I don't drive I won't be able to make it. Have fun. |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Peter T. Date: 23 Dec 99 - 01:20 PM Attention must be paid!!!yours, Peter T. |

Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Rick Fielding Date: 23 Dec 99 - 11:50 PM Attention Mudcatters around the world. Let it be known that the esteemed "Jeri" (of Jeri fame) has landed (well she drove actually) in good old Toronto! Not before seeing parts of Pickering (where we have a very active nuclear plant) and other superfluous burbs. Apparently this has happened before as once while trying to reach New York she ended up in Oslo, Norway. I will now turn this post over to herself. Take it away Jeri. Well, I followed Ricks directions to the letter "Come to Canada, then to Toronto and we're somewhere real close to the middle of the city. In a house." And then I plead for help into his answering machine (for crying out loud) and some guy I meet in a bowling alley says I can follow him home, and...well, I got here. I drove backwards halfway through the city, but I probably would have found his place faster if I'd done the whole city backwards. I am EXTREMELY glad to be here!!!
Rick here again folks. What Jeri has not mentioned was that everyone in the bowling alley was named "Reg"! Rick |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: Jon Freeman Date: 24 Dec 99 - 12:08 AM Jeri, pleased to hear you got there safely and I hope you have a great time. BTW, thanks for you kind Christmas wishes to me. I have been invited round to a friends for Chrismas dinner to start with and another meal at another friends on Monday... seems quite a good start... Jon |
|
Subject: RE: Toronto Mudcatters From: catspaw49 Date: 24 Dec 99 - 01:25 AM Just gave you a welcome on the "How to Edit Threads" thread. Glad you're in East Columbus....well far east Columbus anyway. I got his three brothers here so there are three Reg's here too! Spaw |
