We have stayed at this hotel the most when we go down without issue, they renovated 3 years ago big time, but hotel no matter to me, Just think people would want more closer to Clifton hill, there are a ton of hotels to chose from

Date is September 14th till the 17th 2017! and check your dang PM's once in a while @Tiger! LOL

That hotel is ok if people want to be away from everything. From there would be about a 30-40 minute walk to Clifton Hill, where the most attractions are. That Best Western is up on Fallsview by the new Casino. We have stayed there a few times when we didnt have the kids and just doing the Casino/sex weekend and no attractions LMAO! We have been staying at the Skyline the past few years we have been going when we are hitting up the attractions, it is right behind Planet Hollywood, 5 min walk to casino and all attractions on Clifton hill, Also is attatched to an indoor waterpark that you can get package deals for, has 4 tube slides, 4 body slides, wave pool and kid zone. The hotel is basic, nothing flashy, but has 3 common area rooms with tons of seats and couches and stuff. it out and let me know what yas all think, if you want to be right within 5 minute walking of the attractions (busier area) this one is a great hotel or away from the busier area and a long walk or short drive/shuttle to the attraction areas. http://skylinehotelniagarafalls.com/

its the other way around hun, our Canadian dollar is shit compared to American dollar, so for every US dollar you get approx $1.34 Canadian as per todays exchange rate So, if something was to cost say $100 Canadian, you would only have to pay approx $74.20 American

Ok the date for the Canadian Fest will be September 14th till 17th 2017!! So far for attendance I have the following Stormcrow and Wife Yaccster and Wife Rugger and Wife Olive Labob and wife?

Also please feel free to toss in Ideas and shit, Im just getting the ball rolling on this and checking out prices and making the calls and whatnot as its easy for me( well the wife) to do being close by LOL.

Yes, all prices will be in Canadian, so you will save with the Dollar so long as it stays at its rate LOL

Labour Day weekend is the weekend before, rates begin dropping after Labour Day.

Ill give a day or two for people to see post and toss in if they prefer a certain weekend, noone does, Ill go ahead and flip a coin!

Ok, so far StormCrow and Wife Rugger and Wife Yacc and Wife Olive Labob IceQueen Roxy dudebroman (possible) Looking either September 7th till 10th or September 14th till 17th What seems best for all?

Hello Peeps, Rooger has some things on the go and has asked me to get this off the ground as I know the area Looking to get a rough head count and a bit of info from people as to what they would be interested in so I can start checkin gout group rates and stuff. Now, with that being said, it IS a tourist town, expect tourist prices LOL. We have MANY options for hotels depending on what people want. We can get hotels right in the thick of things on Clifton Hill area. EVERYTHING is within walking distance from this area except maybe go-karts, have to look into that, the Falls is right theremThere is ziplining along the falls just started this year, Maid of The Mist boat tour, tour under the falls, 2 casinos with full buffets and shows and Yuk Yuks, haunted houses, Marine land (Not walking distance for Marine Land but a 10 minute drive) Magic shows and tons of little museums and shit everywhere. There is wine tasting tours all over the place, Niagara region is well known for its wineries. We can also get hotels a little cheaper that are on what is called Lundys Lane, it is about 5 minutes from the actual falls, just a big strip of hotels off the way for those looking to save a few bucks Basically looking for idea on how many plan on attending, Best weekend for it in September of 2017, looking at Thursday till Sunday according to Rooger and im sure if people want to show up earlier arrangements can be made with the hotel at the time of booking, some ideas on what you'se want to do. This is my first fest so bear with me!!!! Wifey will start calling around looking at group rates and stuff, ALOT of hotels have package deals also that give you coupons for different attractions on Clifton hill, or casino packages or food packages Lets get the ball rolling on this and see how many plan on attending!! Dont toss your name in if you are not coming or we send Wildthing to your house and get 15 minutes on the closet with him!! Wife did a few calls this morning to places on Clifton hill, looking anywheres from $100 a night to $160 depending on the hotel. One hotel has said they would give us the whole floor for $125 a night so long as it was all 3 days. Alot of other hotels are giving different rates for each day getting progressivly more expensive friday and saturday night. Days in on Clifton Hill says they will flat rate it 125 but has to be for all 3 days. Just calling around trying to get some info so everyone has a little bit to go on before we pull the trigger on anything, a few of the hotels have said they already have reservations coming in for that time She has been asking about the weeks of Sept 7-10th and Sept 14-17. It is the weekend after Labor Day here in Canada, do NOT want to go the 1st weekend of September Labor Day weekend as prices will be probably double Looking forward to finally meeting a bunch of your idiots!! Ill start it out StormCrow and Wife

I fucking hope so!!! Almost won the vote for this year

Noone Knows We're Cousins

126 lbs / 57 Kg/ 9 stone of lost weight!

Oh lord, I may as well say goodbye to everyone now.... banning pending I am sure StormCrow...The hated bird Congrats girl

Throwback to my 20's and one a wee bit earlier. Went to see mom and dad today, they busted out the old photos, had a laugh or ten LOL

Thats that whole piece done. Took 4 hours of needle time, but with breaks and drawing the stencil was total 7 hours. My guy only charges needle time though. An dhe is $150 an hr, this one cost me 600

here is the original

Well yesterday I got my newest tattoo. Got a nearly 1/2 sleeve done as a tribute to my favorite rock band Monster Truck. About 8 months ago when I started my weight loss journey I made the appointment. When I made it I told the artist I was hoping to be 60-70 lbs lost by then. The 8 months passed and my appointment was yesterday, hoped on the scale yesterday morning and am at 117lbs lost! Kinda beet my goal a wee bit LOL. This tattoo is a gift to myself for the hard work of getting my weight semi under control. Still got 40-50lbs before Ill start feeling comfortable with myself. Lead guitarist of the band saw a pic on my facebook, his comment was "Holy Shit!!!! Amazing!!!" here it is 1st thing this morning Im blown away by the detail he got into this thing!!!

me at 116lbs lost, This hoodie came with pre-order of my fav bands newest album back in February... at the time.. it was almost like a halter top on me it was so tight and my belly hung out the bottom... fits great now!!

In 20+ years of on again off again guitar playing I never learned a Tragically Hip song. Alot here wont know the Hip, they are the quintessential Canadian band. Never made it big in the states and didnt care. The lead singer Gord Downie has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of brain cancer. They did one last tour across Canada and their last show was broadcast live on the CBC and drew over 11 million Canadian viewers, over 1/3 of Canada watched. These numbers are a bit screwed because there were thousands of households that held parties with 20+ people watching on one TV... that counts as 1 viewer. They are a bad ass Canadian band and here is my hack job tribute to them!

What an absolutely amazing show! I had a few friends lucky enough to be there live doing facebook live videos, saw some great shots! So humbling and sad! They have done so much for Canada. I did shed a tear at one part, no not at any of the speeches he made or not even when Rob (lead guitarist) wiped a tear from his eye. There was a spot about 3/4 of the way through the concert, I dont even recall what song was playing, will have to recheck when I rewatch the recording, but it was a good long solo and Gordie just stood there looking off into the crowd, you could see the thought, the love, the devotion in his face, he just stood there, took a deep breath, nodded once and went back to the mic. Most moving moment of the night for me Courage For Gordie! Canadas Musical Sons FUCK CANCER The Tragically Hip In Gord We Trust

I rearranged my work schedule for today so I can get home in time to watch this. Im not a huge Hip fan, but MASSIVELY respect what they have done for the Canadian Music Scene of which I am a HUGE fan of! I am sure I will shed a tear at some point. Gordie is up there with Paul Simon, Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton Lenord Cohen and Gordon Lightfoot for one of the greatest song writers of all time. It is sad but at the same time, he gets to go out how he wants... to the love of the fans!! Heres to Gordie getting a few years atleast of time with family

They been opening every show with that tune! I can rock it on guitar also! They got some bad ass tunes, I love each and every song, but I may be impartial LOL

Too funny.... after all that and when the drummer gave me the stick after the encore, random dude beside me (noticed all the attention I got from the band all night) turns to me and says "So, which dick did ya suck to get all the love?" LMAO!!!

So, head out last night, road trip 2.5 hours to go see my favorite band yet again Monster Truck. If you have not yet, you really need to check these fuckers out, they rock! So, I go down eary, grab a bite to eat, head to the venue an hour early and am 1st in line as per my norm! Sitting there shooting shit with security and a van pulls up to get into the venue, the passenger window comes down, and its the Lead singer Marv. he says to me, "Great to see ya fucking made it, real good to see ya James" and I get a fist pump as they drive in. Woot Woot, days made. Little do I know it has just begun! So the show starts, they are rocking out, play a sick ass 1.5 hour set. Comes to last song of the set, the lead guitarist gets on the mic and thanks everyone for coming despite the rain, says this is last song before the encore, then says "This one goes out to James From Cambridge" FUCK ME RUNNING!!!! I nearly shat my pants!! Im rocking out like a mother fucker now, loving life, I have never heard them send a song out to anyone in all the shows I have been to... 16 of them... They finish that song and head off, come back for encore and rock out 2 songs, the drummer then hooks me up with another drumstick! He gave me one a few months ago at a show! And says to me "Stick around 15 min if ya got the time" If I got the time? If I got the time????? Fuck yeah I gots the time! He comes out 15 min or so later, we shoot the shit about weight loss and life and family and rock and roll and then he hooks me up with a picture! FUCK I LOVE THESE GUYS!!! Never been so blown away by a band showing a superfan such love! Im in perma smile mode!
