SERENA RYDER @ Cabaret du Musée

March 27 2009 // Magazine // Concert Reviews

I was excited to see Serena Ryder live. I knew a handful of her songs but not much else about her.On the off chance that you don’t either, Ryder’s from Ontario, just outside of Peterborough.  She grew up listening to the Beatles and Leonard Cohen. During her show, she told the audience that she was an AM Radio “kind-of-girl.”

STREET DOGS + Hostage Life + Ashers @ Les Foufounes Electriques

This is the fifth time I’ve attempted to begin this Street Dogs review with some kinda hyperbolic statement about how the show blew my mind and how Foufs is the perfect venue for a punk show and how the Street Dogs revolutionize street punk in 2009 but really? Who wants to read that? Not every show has to be mind-blowing or revolutionary to be good, and believe you me, this show was GOOD…except for one teency little programming snag.

DIVINE BROWN @ Cabaret Du Musee

By DJ Solespin - Eclectricity - 02/20/2009

I have been a big fan of Divine Brown since her debut CD was released a few years ago, when a copy of Love Chronicles arrived at CJLO.  Since then, I have played her music steadily on my show and waited patiently for her February 20th Cabaret Du Musee concert.

THE PLANET SMASHERS + The Creepshow @ Club Soda

February 27 2009 // Magazine // Concert Reviews

By Johnny Suck - Turn Down the Suck - 02/13/2009

The odd thing about The Planet Smashers is that I know they're a great band and I know I'll enjoy the show, but I never go see them. My guess is that it’s been at least 6 years since the last time I saw them. The thing that sticks out in my memory about that last time is that it seemed like I and my friend were the only two people in the audience who weren't dancing. Well this time I was flying solo, so take a guess how many people there were standing still…

THEORY OF A DEADMAN + Rev Theory @ Le National

February 23 2009 // Magazine // Concert Reviews

By R. Brian Hastie - Countdown To Armageddon - 01/15/2009

Theory Of A Deadman is no one's favourite band. I'm glad I got that statement out of the way at the onset of this review, as I feel like it accurately describes the concert experience I recently flung myself into.
