Hello All,

Our band has recently purchased and converted to WVO a 1991 Delica. We will be touring across Canada between September 7th and October 21st. (You can check us out at http://www.backyardstringband.com.) We will be looking for WVO resources (preferrably filtered :-) ), and we are hoping Delica enthusiasts from all over Canada will come check out our shows. If you would like to know if/when we will pass through your city, please feel free to contact us anytime, through this forum.
Nice to meet you all!

Good luck on your tour. Just saw your schedule, 10 days to drive from Victoria to PEI, eh? Looks like fun. Let us know if you have an upcoming mid-Island gig. My wife and son big fiddlers, we just got back from the Salt Spring Fiddle camp. They'd love to see some live music.

BTW, if you have any pictures of your PlantDrive install I'd love to see them. I'm working on installing a PlantDrive kit myself, I can use any advise I can get :-)

Hello Backyard String Band! Were you guys in Revelstoke during mid-July earlier this year? I went into someone who was about to convert his van to veggie oil. You guys have real nice tunes! I also play music, you can check out my stuff at:

Welcome!

If you can get the time to book a show in Powell River I can promise you a free fill of well filtered/treated WVO. October sounds great and if you need help with any contacts here feel free to PM me. BTW, Powell River is a unbelievably culturally open town, with a huge appreciation of all music. The support and attendance of the Powell River Kathaumixw is phenomenal.

Is that a grey and black, low roof veggie Delica in the picture from your site? If it is, awesome choice! :-D

Cheers,
Kev

Hey, I'll bring some people out to check out your show in Oakville, Ontario.
Maybe I'll take a peep at your Deli as well...I'm in the market for one, and there's not many around here.
Are you playing other shows out here, or looking for other gigs while you're out east?

Cheers,
Rob
