An Even Epicer Daze?

Hey,

Thanks to all the night lovers who managed to come out for an epic night. After a successful trade show during the day as part of the 1st ever Medical Cannabis Cup put on by High Times, BCNL was ready to own the night.

As part of the 1st Epic Daze show put on by BC Northern Lights, Stand Down started off by waking the crowd up with some good ol' metal then Ila Mawana kept the party live with a smooth ska sound.

Jonny Kaplan and the Lazy Stars warmed the peeps with their unique style of Americana including a killer cover of Country Joe and the Fish's classic "Don't bogart that joint".

DJ Ras MG took the stage and blew up his set and it was a quick change over to Lyrics Born who forced the funk on the faithful.

Last but not least, Eagles of Death Metal brought the house down with a killer set. We got to make friends with EODM over the weekend and what a treat it was. These guys are big fans of the tomato and we made fast friends.

With Myles (aka Big Sexy) pilfering their booze and acting as their personal fluffer, we had a great weekend all the way through.

Not to be outshined by the amazing bands there were live artists that had the back alley on lockdown. Tony from Goodstash orchestrated some amazing glass pieces with his traveling glass blowing show. Graham, our friend from GrassRoots tagged a Bloombox live with some brilliant art. We will be doing a giveaway for this beauty so keep your heads up.

Our friends at Absinthe Films were had some vids playing on the big screen all night long as the bands rocked out.

Eddie managed to set up a deal for our own Epic Daze ale through the legendary Rogue Brewery where we had a party to meet some of the new BCNL shred team.

We did a raffle over the weekend at both the Cup trade show and the Epic Daze party for a shiny new Bloombox and we drew a winner in Jake Howdyshell. Jake was stoked and promises to keep us in the loop with some prize winning product shots.

We have a small video (coming next week) of some good debauchery that we threw down at our 1st attempt at Epic Daze . Maybe the next show will be called "Epicer Daze" until we feel we have moved up to "Epicist Daze" status? We believe there can only be 1 "Epicist Daze" party as we will probably burn the place down with a fireworks show gone wrong, or a botched glass blowing display. The next Epic Daze is coming this winter and it will be introducing the new BCNL sponsored riders, so keep an eye out for more details...
