Slip in Ottawa ?

Ottawa Bluesfest - July 12, 2006

Andrew Barr and Marc Freidman are backing Dan Bern

Since the rhythm section of the Slip will be here in Ottawa anyway, the idea has been put forth to get a Slip show together afterwards. Considering that Dicky Betts will be playing a later slot at Bluesfest, there's more potential to have a fantastic day of music all around.

Would any of you make the trip?

I was hoping to get home for part of Ottawa Bluesfest, but it just ain't going to happen. That's the same week as the Wilco Halifax and Fredericton shows.

Good luck bouche, Ottawa should be a regular stop for them now that they're holed up in Mtl...

A Slip show can't happen that day anymore.

but, it's looking like round 2 of Sister Brother and the Barr Brothers may be possible.

correction....

Brothers Barr with Sister Brother is totally happenin'!

who wants to come to Ottawa? Marc and Andrew with Dan Bern at Bluesfest along with a full evening of music and then a set of Brad and Andrew's bluegrass ensemble 'Sister Brother' followed by an encore engagement of the Brothers Barr at Maverick's!

The Many Faces of The Barr Brothers

The creative energy of musical brilliance is a relentless thing. You'd think Andrew and Brad Barr would put their feet up and catch their breath any chance they could. Their trio, The Slip, which includes bassist Marc Friedman, does after all, play up to 150 shows a year.

But it seems the brothers simply cannot pause, even for a moment. Brad and Andrew Barr do not have only one side-project, they have two. On July 12th, for the first time ever, they will be gracing Ottawa, Ontario with both.

I can pretty much guarantee Bradm will have this tracked and on bt.etree.org with a day. If it was the weekend, you'd be downloading it by lunchtime tomorrow.

The show was one big set; they played until about 2:30am (last call is usually 1:45am). I and two other tapers recorded the show; I'm hoping to have my copy on BT later tonight.
