October 6th - Guelph - Planet Bean Coffee

I dropped by Guelph again, but this time to play a coffee shop. I didn't get there in time to have a dinner with Brent, but he did drop by the show and we hung out there. First up was a high school band, and it was the first time I'd ever heard a cello ripping blues solos. Kudos! THEN...another duo called Tiger Suit (that do a lot of school gigs) did some interesting things: they blended folk and electronica while throwing in different types of world music. In the photo below, the one guys is doing Nepalese throat singing while his partner plays jazzy keys, and would occasionally switch to singing in Japanese and playing one of their traditional instruments. Super cool evening!
