Fire Sale Installment # 2

Last year, a six-piece version of BP got in the van for a little tour of Michigan, Illinois and Iowa. We had a good time in Detroit and Chicago and at Knox College in Galesburg but the whole reason for the trip was to visit the fine fellows at Daytrotter.

It's a beautiful thing they have going there. Nestled atop a pizza joint in Rock Island, IL, you'd never know that the Daytrotter guys record a couple bands a day every single day at their unassuming studio. They were very inviting and patient with us, considering none of us had ever done a live-off-the-floor, get-it-right-quick taping before.

Rock Island is part of the Quad Cities, uniting with Davenport, Bettendorf and Moline. When we finished up, the DT guys pointed us over the bridge and into Iowa, where we found a casino / hotel / cruise ship that had cheap rooms. A bottle of tequila, some pizza, a little gambling and too much Wife Swap later, I can safely say it produced one of the best memories we've got.

Hope you enjoy it. Be sure to check out everything Daytrotter has to offer. You could be online for days.

Summer Time

We're gonna spend our time on docks and bikes this summer, getting reacquainted with the good parts of being in a band, so it's not going to be a jam-packed season of shows for Bruce Peninsula. However, we did just book a couple and we will be posting details very shortly. It's been a long time since our last one (all painted up as skeletons at the Horseshoe in October) so we're really looking forward to it.

Thanks to everyone that has visited the site in the last few days and to those who have passed The Swimming Song around on their Facebook and Twitters. Check back in here on April 26th for the second installment of the Fire Sale.

Oh and Small Town Murder Songs, the movie that features lots of our music is having screenings in Waterloo and Ottawa and a handful of film festivals over the next month or so. Check out the film's website or Facebook for details.

Don't forget to grease your chain before your first ride!

Ta da!

Welcome to the online home of Bruce Peninsula and the Bruce Trail Fire Sale. Our friend Ted worked tirelessly to bring you all these crazy layers and we couldn't be happier. Ted works at night so our schedules were pretty much inverted and it was tough for him to get answers out of us because we were always sleeping when he was working. Our endless thanks to him for persevering. 

Hit up the audio and video tree limbs to hear our version of The Swimming Song and stay tuned for the next installment in the series. We'll be posting that on April 26th. 

Thanks for sticking with us through the tough times. 

Here's to the good road ahead of us!

Ch-ch-ch-changes

Hello!

We're giving this site a complete overhaul today. Just wanted to warn you in case we're mid-stream and things look a little funny around here.

Today is also the first day of the Bruce Trail Fire Sale. You should be hearing more about that in the next few hours.

Check back later for a beautiful new site made by renaissance man Ted White.

Stay tuned. 

Remission

Just a quick word to say that Neil is officially done his chemotherapy and is now in remission. Now that the nice weather has hit, he's working on getting back in shape and BP are gonna spend the spring getting reacquainted and rehearsing, but stay tuned for show announcements and more details about our record. You should also probably check back here late this or early next week. We've been scheming. 

Thanks for your continued support through this terrible winter. 

We hope to see you all very soon.

xoxo
