It seems that in the prairies and places of canada where there was little and little going on it was much easier to give you guys updates. Toronto and the surrounding area has been good to us.
We just played a killer show last night at the Hideout in Toronto. We'd been accepted into the "North by North East" festival just this week and managed to pull a really good slot at 1 AM on friday night on Queen Street. The audience was off the hook. We were sweating, throwing water at each other, girls were dancing on the counter top of the bar, and rumour has it one of our band members even got a kiss in the middle of our song. Now i wouldn't call us a party band, but when people want to party we'll make the most of it and that was splendid.
This week we also had a great experience at the Trepid House in Waterloo. The venue is a house that the owners have converted into a venue by hooking up speakers in every room, so that no matter where you are, the living room, the magic room (yes there were several magicians in this house), the pirate room (equipped with pirate costumes and everything), the plant room or the attic art gallery, you could always groove to the music.
We were lucky enough to share the stage with a newfy band called HEY ROSETTA, which everyone should check out. We were all humbled as hell. The cops had shut down the concert after we played and we all thought that it was over. Hey Rosetta, equipped with mandolins, cellos, violins and acoustic guitars just played an acoustic set and man was it awesome.
We also managed to get some new recordings done in windsor with a friend of josh's. We're talking about temporarily posting them on our myspace and facebook pages so stay tuned for those. I can't promise anything. we're still talking about it, but i think we could swing at least a couple for your listening pleasure.
Off to montreal tomorrow, and then the final stretch back across canada.
hope to see you soon
