| Red Deer - October 3rd 2009 - POF goes LIVE! Posted: 8/4/2009 9:04:10 PM | UPDATED ON SEPTEMBER 29, 2009
Hey all you crazy POFers....
Here we go again. It has come to my attention that early October seems to be as good of a time as any to make central Alberta a focal point for POFer madness.
Let's celebrate the start of the Fall season (colourful trees, a refreshing nip in the morning air) by gathering once again at Cheers (north) in Red Deer! We're going to rock them harder than last time! And last time did in fact register strong on the rock-O-meter!
PARTY STARTS AT 8PM! FIRST BAND (COUNTRY) LIKELY TO START AROUND 9:00-9:30PM!
How do you find Cheers? Click Here to view the MAP page. Their address:
7445 50 Avenue (Gaetz ave north)(east side)
The plan is to make it a more balanced Red Deer event than previous ones. In the past there was just a DJ, and for the event we had last February, we had both a DJ and a band. THIS time around the plan - to make it more balanced - is to have a trifecta of bands. One country, one classic rock covers, and to round things out one will play mostly originals and a couple VERY recognizable covers. In between acts? Some DJ stuff.
All in all, great live music and some fun to be had.
$10 cover at the door. The best part though.... HAPPY HOUR PRICES ALL NIGHT!!!!!!! How does it feel? Tell me how - does it feel?! You do the math.

| Red Deer - October 3rd 2009 - POF goes LIVE! Posted: 8/18/2009 8:44:04 PM | | As the party host, it's pretty much one of my main jobs to TRY and make sure I talk to as many new people as possible. Of course, when there ends up being 150+ people there, it gets a bit tough. But since I know a lot of the people already, it always helps when I can bring a new person in to a circle of people who are otherwise just hanging out with each other. It can appear to be a bit overwhelming when you see so many people at once. But we're a pretty friendly bunch. | |

| Red Deer - October 3rd 2009 - POF goes LIVE! Posted: 8/19/2009 5:26:56 PM | | Hey TC, I asked this in the main threads, but is it your band playing that night? If so, what do you play? Is it your own music, top 40, old rock..... we are curious. Trying to keep people from ending up at Bellinis. | |

… "Hey, could you help me set one of these up in Calgary?" lol. I said I would...
Would LOVE it if you would set something up in Calgary that was more rock than country. We’re not country music fans AT ALL and it’s very difficult to find a venue here that plays the kind of music we like, and doesn’t cater to the “under 25” crowd. | |

| Red Deer - October 3rd 2009 - POF goes LIVE! Posted: 8/19/2009 7:56:41 PM | | In Calgary, Kings Head has hosted some wicked POF meets in the past. I've been to a couple, and the cover bands they had were pretty killer. But if you wanted me to help YOU set one up, I'd be willing to play a part in the process. | |
