La Roux Shine @ Guvernment

October 26th, 2009

It was a dark and dismal night this past Friday – the kind where once you’re home you’re done. I only had eyes for my bed and bad TV but despite the comfort looming in front of me, I donned my wellies, busted out my brelly and made the trek down to Toronto’s dismal waterfront. [...]

The Kylie Show

October 13th, 2009

White Lies Review: A Different POV

April 1st, 2009

[Photo by Stacey McD] It was one happily-sweaty way to send-off March and welcome in April, with last night’s incredible White Lies/Friendly Fires/The Soft Pack show at Lee’s Palace, here in Toronto. I missed The Soft Pack (oopsy) but was just in time to see the catchy-kitchy performance of Friendly Fires. Delving into New Young [...]
