September 25th - North Bay - The Underground

North Bay has always been good to me, thanks to Kelly Allan, who I met on the Northern Rocks tour last March. I managed to play a cool show in a new all ages underground venue, along with a couple of local acoustic performers as well as The Rough Sea from out east, and Greater Than Giants from Edmonton (I actually had their CD on repeat for a good 2 weeks in the car). Catchy stuff! One of their amps didn't seem to be working, but thankfully the venue also houses several different 'jam rooms' for bands, so a tenant just wheeled out an amp for them to use, and the show went on!

Northern Rocks Tour - North Bay

Spent last night in North Bay, playing a sold out show (we definitely went over capacity!) at the Bull and Quench pub.

It was the first time that I had met the other 2 bands that I'm touring with;

Rabbit Transit - www.myspace.com/rabbittransit - Sudbury, ON
Cody Allen - www.myspace.com/codyoallen - North Bay, ON

We also shared stages with some other pretty cool locals, like Feels Like Yesterday, and the Black Hole of Calcutta, who opened and closed the show, respectively.

Chris Rancourt (of Northern Rocks) and I are pumped to have a short drive to Cobalt, ON today, since I've driven since Tbay, and that was a sweet haul.

Either way, it's Cobalt tonight at the Classic Theatre. There should hopefully be some good photos to come!
