Went to a dayglo show last night with my two (now adult) sons. Family outing to the hardcore show. Unless you’ve actually been you can’t understand how genuinely nice and wholesome that is. Also was talking to Murray as I’m from Victoria in the 90s and he said “oh yeah I sent them thank you cards we were nobodies before they did that.” Proto-Streisand Effect.
My mom told me about when they came to our hometown and played "Release the hostages". Not one woman raised their shirt and the lead singer was so visibly disappointed. Mom felt pride at the moment lol
We were just getting off the ferry after driving home from Alberta for Christmas. The Pat Bay Highway looked like a farmer's field track, almost impassable except for the four wheel drive truck we were in.

I end up coming back to watch this every year 😆 nothing so cozy, as to watch this in a warm house when it's cold outside. Born and raised in Vic. Seeing the blue bridge takes me back instantly, to a time I'll never know again in this life.
I cannot explain how much I like watching this footage. I can see it was uploaded in 2013, seventeen years after the blizzard. I'm here in 2023 twenty seven years later watching it.
You folks need to live in the snow belt of BC. I don't think most of you have ever endured a 4.5 ft overnight snowfall such as I did as a kid. This from the interior of BC's snow belt.
I remember the night before me and my friend Jackie went to the Oyster Bar right down town by bf got snowed in up Island, a lady was brought into the hospital by skidoo to give birth (Thankfully their was a person with a skidoo)
I love the record store worker who shows the "Holiday in Cambodia" single and says its ancient, that single at that time was like 8 years old.. I dont know if that fits the definition of ancient, even by punk standards lol.
Working at what used to be coffee Max that night. The dishwasher said I bet it doesn't stop snowing I said that never happens never has happened it's not going to happen. Think I was wrong a little bit. LoL
