Burlington Slam Project turns 3

Hey there fellow slammers,

Just in case you've been hiding under a rock or sleeping on the greatness that is BSP worry no more because Duffman is here to fill you in on the deets.

Thursday July 21st 8pm @ The Black Bull we will be celebrating our 3rd anniversary in style!

How?

Well first we will be featuring David Perez. Yeah, I know he'll be featuring at TPS the following week. But will it be an "Anything Goes" slam? That's right, BSP will be having it's first ever themed slam before we start the regular season again in August. The time penalty will still be in effect (the bar has to close eventually) but everything else is game: covers, costumes, intruments, props. BE CREATIVE!

Secondly, we've been working hard behind the scenes. Yogi won our logo contest a while back and has been using his winning submission as the inspiration for a total rebranding (logo, blog header, flyer design) of BSP. I've also been working on a whole new blog design to compliment the new rebranding launch at the tri-versary slam.

But because we love you, we decided to launch the new blog layout early to whet your appetite and get you excited about what will happen at the tri-versary slam. Check it out at burlingtonslam.wordpress.com

Duffman,

I like the re-branding, and the re-minding...I always seem to think of BPS when I'm at GPS, two days too late.

But you hit upon a pet peeve of mine...malaproping of colloquial: The saying is 'whet your appetite', as in sharpen or excite, not 'wet' as in water down.

Apologies in advance if this was merely a typo.

WB.

P.S. You never want to get me started on the whole 'piss and vinegar' malaprop.

Hey WB,

I'm glad you like the new look. It took some work to make sure things look right.

I guess I need to 'whet' my mind while editing and before posting in the future.

I make it out to 90-95% of all BSP slams. If you like to go just let me know. Ive given many people from Guelph a ride. However, with the baby seat in the back i now only have room for 2 people.
