they are lovely boys, and received a pretty sweet review by Mr. Pete Nema, for their recent show with Oh No Forest Fires CD Release.
(Thanks to Kevbot as well for the musical introduction)

You can read it here.

Now, i know that this show was over a week ago, and I am soooo behind the ball. But coming out of reclusion is a tricky and lengthy endeavour.

Anyways Magazine fans... there seems to be a speckle of hope on the horizon... and although there seems to be an announcement of a magazine closure every two days... soon there may be an actual Qatalyst Magazine Website up and running.

Many fingers remain crossed.

Jay Spectre

So Saturday nite q headed down to Toronto to see highwaisted, the vacuity boys at the El Mo, and Jay Spectre at the Horseshoe. Such a good nite.

Unfortunately missed the Jay Spectre set, but picked up their new disc and haven't listened to anything else since.
To get a copy of Jay Spectre disc, email me... and I will put you in touch. It's $10, great lyrics, huge instrumental,and the artwork kicks. Love that the lyrics are printed on the back of a fold out mini-poster.

Highwaisted reports the 'Shoe was packed... and Mr.Oliver seemed happy with the night, so all is good.

and yes, my glasses are perscription.

Always, on the weekend...

So the past couple days have been an adventure.
On Friday, we went to a wedding... P was embarassed that I wore these shades. oh well.

Then on Saturday nite, a couple of us headed into the city for a little fun with Brigette and Bobby and Sway.
Little party at Ukula on College... pretty sweet little place... clothing, bar, books, music... pretty much anything your little heart desires. oh! and some delicious G&Ts.

Then there was a short stop at Dee's to try and convince Highwaisted to come back to Tiger Bar with us, but no deals. Their nite was winding down... but we were... still on the move. Sucks that it didn't work out... April 30th... we will regroup.
The next day I would have taken photos, but... we were in rough shape. Had breakfast at Chinese food restaurant on Dundas that caters to the hangover crowd. Interesting concept.
Thanks for your amazing hospitality and the fun nite B. THIS is for you: H.
