their flight got delayed and they werent able to make it into vancouver until 4am, so either they're staying here all week, or they'll be flying back again to play at Plush next saturday night

Even without Signum, Montana & Res, Kerry Wilks and Danny Taylor still rocked the place

Yeah, everyone keep your ticket stubs, hopefully they can make it out for next Saturday :) I'm sure there will be an official press release outlining whats going to happen regarding the Signum show as soon as Union figures it out. Keep in mind Signum is probably jet-lagged to hell right now and the last thing they want to do is talk bookings. Union will be sure to let everyone know what's up as soon as they are able.

We'll be making an officical announcement as soon as Signum & thier agency make a statement later this week.

The confirmed Date is Sat. November 13th

Everyone who went through the door on saturday were told to hold on to their ticket stubs, so hopefully everyone did. Everyone with their ticket stubs will get in free to the november 13th Signum show. SO brutal, the guys travelled soooo many hours going from Netherlands to london to toronto to vancouver.. and ended up arriving here at 4am just so they could be picked up and brought to the hotel to sleep for a bit, then picked up and dropped off back at the airport around 1pm to fly all the way back home without playing a single record. Signed a few records and flyers for the guys and took a couple pics with ppl and that was it. Welcome to the fun of being a promoter!

Thanks for the update. Sorry this happened, but hey, third times a charm, right? ;) I'm sure they will be well worth a little extra wait. :)

Actually, this would have been thier first time preforming in Vancouver! I though they had played in Vancouver before, but I was wrong!

But yes, 3rd time advertising hehe.

Our worst Nightmare....!!! posted 10/5/2004 by Signum

A big SORRY to all the people who came up to Plush (Vancouver), and did not see us.....

Every once in a while, you find yourself in a situation, that everything that can go wrong, will go wrong! Here's what happened to us last weekend.
We were booked for the opening-night @ Plush, a club in Vancouver, to play a 2 hour set (01.00-03.00 PM). We were really excited to go over there again, cause it had been quite a while since our last visit to canada (which went wrong as well).

Anyway we arrived @ Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam, to fly to London-Heathrow, once we had checked in, we had a 1 hour delay, so far so good (cause a 1 hour delay is not the worst that can happen in this situation). After arriving in London we had to transfer to another terminal for our connecting flight. Our flight (Air Canada) was suppose to leave @ 16.15 PM........Once it had reached that time, there still was nothing on the info-screens, except to wait in the lounge.......Finally 1 hour later a message was given, that the flight had been delayed till 18.15 PM........So we kept on waiting & continue with being bored......Another message was given.........and guess what?, delayed till 19.00 PM.

So far we had allready lost 3 hours waiting! Normally when you have to wait that long, you'll get some info on what has happened.......but no! Finally around 20.00 PM the message was given, that we could start boarding........WOOHOO.......Our thought on this was, that we would still be able to make our gig in time.......Big relieve! It still took another full hour to check in all the passengers..... So @ 21.00 hours we could finally take off!

Finally in the air, an announcement was made, that they were very sorry for the delay, and that they had experienced some technical difficulties (whatever that means).
Completely tired and f***ed up from all the waiting, they came up with the most hillarious message of the whole day, which was, that the crew/captains had exceeded their official working time, and therefor we had to make a pit-stop in Toronto, where they would switch crews/captains, re-fuel and let us wait for another hour............Yippeekayee!!!

@ this point we had come to the horrible conclusion, that our worst nightmare had come true, and the whole trip was useless........there was no way, we could play anymore @ the club!!! Well Done Canada Air!!!!. The whole trip to Vancouver had cost us 12 Hours in total, and we finally arrived @ 04.00 AM..........(10 hours later, cause we were supposed to land @ 18.00 PM), completly nackered to the max!!!

And once you think you've had it all, there's allways that thing called "Customs & Migration" (now we understand how they came up with the word migraine), and yet another obstacle in our nightmare was added. Since we live in Holland, every other country you go to, custums look @ you, like your the dealer, whom they are willing to catch so badly.....So we spend another hour, being questioned about a lot of bullshit & almost stripsearched.....Untill we finally could go outside, smoke a cigarette, with the knowledge that we had to go back again in 8 hours.......

But rest assured, we will be back in November, we'll leave a couple a days earlier, so that even if we have this shit again, you'll won't notice it.......hahaha. We will also play an extended set, to make it up 2 you all, and give you a night to remember..!!!

Our appologies, and c ya in November

Greetz,

Pascal & Ron

Third time is a charm. This time I can actually show, since work was in the way for me on Saturday, which pissed me off, but heh, I didnt miss Signum so I guess thats the plus side of it.

Booked off November 13th, so ill make it to Plush for sure to see Signum.
