exit303

G’day,

Just thought I’d mention that we are back home safe and sound. Made some Aussie friends out in Banff that might be stopping by E-Town for a frothy one although they seem to like tequila and sambuca(sp) too. They have a way of bringing out the party in anyone! It’s all good…

“Get A Dog up in ya!”
Not sure what it means but it was our battle cry for another drink.

Rock on!

Jay

Nicely said if I do say so myself…

For those of you not on the mailing list (why aren’t you??) here’s a mirror of very important information sent out today…

We’re about to release the 3rd single from ‘into the circle’ and we want you to get involved. We have narrowed the selection down to two songs… Perfect Picture and Think Out Loud. We’ve got great new masters ready for radio and you can hear them in their entirety by following these simple directions…

First go to surfussound at this address…

Click on e
Click on exit303
Click on Songs
Click on the little green speaker thingy beside each song (one at a time)

There you go… that wasn’t too hard was it?

Give ‘em a listen and e-mail us at theband@exit303.com and let us know which song you think should be The One… or The Three I suppose. And for those who think it should be Surf The Sun, try to stick with the program. We’ll tabulate the results and get ‘er out. It’s that simple. You have until Sunday July 11 to get your selection in. Yeah it’s a short campaign… we’re Canadian! Now do your duty and vote!

Stay cool. Stay safe and we’ll see you soon.

What can I say? They were on sale and I thought, “What the hell – I’ll give ‘em a try.” WOW!!! Those were the best damn perogies I ever clogged my arteries with! (actually, I think it may have been the sour cream and cheese increasing the arterial resistance). They even tasted like pizza (in a perogy sort of way…) You may think we rock stars are sipping champagne and eating the EXPENSIVE crackers backstage but really if we get croutons and a packet of mustard we consider it a good gig… still, I’m gonna add the pizza-perogy, or pizzarogy as the marketing geniuses put it, to the exit303 rider!

See you at the Stampede!!

Jay

Just spent the weekend at Reds checking out the Stripdown finals. Pretty killer weekend of live music and a great sampling of the best of Edmonton and area’s Indie scene. Congrats to Marble Engine for taking top honours and to Mike Dilts and crew for putting on a stellar production.

Check out sfxMusic.ca for a comprehensive list of area indie bands and watch for the next great thing from the guys who put Stripdown together.

Stay cool,
Cam

exit303 performing on the Coca-Cola Stage at the Calgary Stampede and at the Molson Canadian Brewhouse for Klondike Days

exit303 is very pleased to have been chosen to perform July 15 on the Coca-Cola Stage at the Calgary Stampede as part of their Alberta Rocks showcase. exit303 was invited after impressing the Stampede Music Committee during Junos week in April. This showcase is predicted to draw roughly 8,000-10,000 people and will put exit303 on stage with three other great Alberta indie acts along with recently signed acts Social Code and Out Of Your Mouth. exit303 takes the stage at 9:30pm. More information can be found at www.calgarystampede.com

Roughly a week later on July 23, exit303 will be found at Klondike Days in Edmonton performing at the Molson Canadian Brewhouse. Playing two one-hour sets (6:30pm & 11pm), these shows will again expose exit303 to a large and varied audience.

exit303 has been making great strides since the release of their latest album, ‘into the circle’. The band is extremely happy to be recognized by being added to these great events.

I understand that a number of Windows users are having a little trouble viewing our programs. The programs have just been re-encoded with a little older codecs which should alleviate most of the problems. Try getting them again and feel free to let me know (cam@exit303.com) if you continue to have problems.

I will also look at encoding the programming in multiple formats just so no one is barred from viewing our most(ly) excellent episodes.

Thank you for your patience. That being said… Day 3 & 4 are now up. We’re currently hanging out in Victoria trying to stay dry. 6.5 hours to showtime… stay tuned.
