Date of show: September 24, 2010 Die Mannequin packed Tattoo Rock Parlour, a show presented by Hyacinth. The best part: the first 200 fans got in for FREE! Alex was there to photograph the party! Dearly Beloved Darlings of Chelsea
Amos the Transparent Throws a Party at The Rivoli
[Note: Rachel wasn’t prepared to get on stage for the shots picture, so she was a little nervous. It’s a little blurry, but hey, it was the first band to do shots DURING their set. How awesome is that?!] Date of show: September 23, 2010 Shot of choice: jager Amos the Transparent is an Ottawa-based […]
War Child Canada’s Busking for CHANGE 2010
September 21st is International Peace Day and it’s fitting that Busking for CHANGE for War Child Canada would happen on this day. For this cause, many bands donated their time to the event and, in some cases, went busking at multiple locations. We had a hectic day with a lot of running around. We caught […]
The Golden Dogs Pack The Drake Underground
Date of Show: September 17, 2010 Oh, The Golden Dogs, how entertaining you are. It’s hard not to enjoy yourself when at a Golden Dogs show. They bring a hell of a lot of energy to already energetic power-pop rock tunes. Even better than how they sound recorded is their live show. The vocal dynamic […]
Buying Shots (Sorta) for Sandman Viper Command at The Drake Underground
[Note: We couldn’t manage to round up all the members at the same time, but Amanda did get this epic shot of Rob Janson. Not pictured: bottle of Crown.] Date of show: September 17, 2010 Shot of choice: We never bothered to ask because instead of doing shots, we drank Crown Royal straight from the […]
The Darcys Awe at The Drake Underground
Date of show: September 17, 2010 The Darcys is a band I have been meaning to see for the better part of 2010 and they’ve been on my radar since their 2007 debut release, Endless Water. For some reason, the stars never aligned to make this happen until now. I am full of regret for […]
Southern Souls Fundraiser at the El Mocambo
Date of show: September 17, 2010 Shot of choice: Make Your Exit did a shot of jager, after some debating Southern Souls’ Mitch Fillion put on a fundraiser for the site and Rachel was able to shoot it. Seeing as I was not at this event (and believe me, if I were able to be […]
The Indie Machine Presents… A Night of Solid Music at Rancho Relaxo
Date of show: September 16, 2010 We had the pleasure of attending the very first show at Rancho Relaxo put on by The Indie Machine. We want to give a shout out to Dave and Ryan for the great night. We didn’t buy shots for any bands this night, but I think we owe shots […]
AKIN Collective Open House
We were able to attend the Open House hosted by the AKIN Collective. It’s a pretty great artistic space, also shared by Audio Blood. There was BBQ, beer, a solo performance by Jason Couse of The Darcys, and acoustic performances by Sandman Viper Command and Make Your Exit. While we were there, Rachel took a […]
Buying Shots for Dinosaur Bones at The Horseshoe
[Note: We had some technical difficulties and, as a result, we had to take this photo after they took their shot. Two of the boys so kindly offered to fake it, but clearly not everyone got the memo… so I’m just going to be honest about the whole situation.] Date of show: September 11, 2010 […]
