SSSSSSSSSSVelte!  Visit Svelte's official page!  Buy their CD!

I finally got to see Svelte at the Mayfair Festival @ Softball City
May 23, 1998!!

Hi thebandsvelte!!!!!!!

This photo makes it "look" like there were only 6 people watching... there were TONS more people behind me...

I'm using a little digital camera to take these shots! The resolution is sad! Poor Mark is somewhere there just to the left of Kerry's shoulder... Drummers never get into photos... he needs a big riser! Ü ... Too bad I didn't have video... The show was worth taping!
They were GREAT!!!!!!
and I mean that!!!!
I totally enjoyed myself!!! I was VERY nearly late for DMS!!!!
(got there with ten min. to spare.. Ü ... I was doing lighting for them!)

 

My favorite funny bits of the show were the "extreme string breakage"
(one string per instrument... I think Oliver is still tuning his bass after changing strings!)
,
Martin falling on his ass during the first song and still playing great guitar!
And Gary "abusing" the people who wouldn't come inside the fence!

Svelte: (from left)
Gary!, Oliver!, Mark!, Kerry! & Martin!
Look!!!!!  There's MARK!!!!!  That yellowish blur in the center!  Play again soon so I can get some REAL photos!!!!!!

The vocals were OUTSTANDING!

We all agreed...

 

Svelte hams for their screaming fans!!!

Oooooooo.... Rock Stars!!!!!!!!!!!!

These people up front were HYSTERICALLY FUNNY!!! Much overacting and joking from the crowd... who were all still totally into the band after an hour & a half!! A few covers were played, all the big Svelte hits! Including
5-Alive TWICE
(by popular demand!)

Look!  Mark's NOT a strange yellowish blur!  Here we are at the HAYDEN!!!!!! show June 3rd!  See more Hayden photos by clicking here.

Mark, Megan and I at Hayden!

I GOT MY CD!!!!!
My fine new Svelte CD...
"don't panic!"

We listened to it on the way downtown... it's great! Buy it now! (many people did last night and got 'em autographed too! Ü) You can visit the
Official Svelte Homepage
and join "The Svelte Army"
(fan club) and you can arrange to purchase
"Don't Panic" for the bargain price of $10 (I like Gary's description, "11 songs for $10... that's only 90 cents a song!" Ü)

I'm listening it NOW of course!!!!

You can hear some samples here...
I suggest the .mp3!!
(they're worth the download time!)

 

It was excellent meeting you, guys and I'm sorry I had to run off so fast after you played! I hope you enjoy this page!!! Ü
(is this your first fan page? Do I get a prize? Ü)

I still want you to come out and visit me at the Band Space... I'll learn Svelte songs and we can jam! Ü ... we'll talk!

 

Go the Vancouver Shows page!  Find out who you want to go see tonight!

This is my band!  Leave me an amusing comment on my guestbook... pleeeeeeeaaassssse??????????
