Metallica, November 29th 2016

Words cannot describe this show... The Opera House in Toronto was rocked last night by the power of Metallica! 950 people, an amazing set list and an unforgettable evening. My ears are ringing, my neck is sore and my voice is raw... What a great night.

Amanda Palmer, November 11th 2016

A very beautiful and emotional show at the Elizabeth Theatre in Toronto with Amanda Palmer (of Dresden Dolls fame).

Her rendition of Hallelujah as a tribute to Leonard Cohen for her last song was magical.

Death in June feat. Miro Snejdr (Herr Lounge Corps) with Vierance, November 27th 2015

Death in June put on an excellent show in this small and intimate venue named Nocturne Nightclub on Queen St. West (it doesn't even have a sign on the door, and we had to be emailed the secret location the night before). This was the first time Death in June performed in Toronto, and it was amazing. Vierance and Herr Lounge Corps did a great job of setting up the mood for Douglas Pearce, who then knocked it out of the park (the sound was great, which I find is hit or miss for a small venue).

Jethro Tull's Ian Anderson, October 18th 2013

Excellent theatrical show at Massey Hall by Jethro Tull's Ian Anderson. I wasn't sure what to expect coming in but it was an amazing show both musically and visually, with a narrative being done as Ian Anderson and his crew played Thick as a Brick 1 and 2.

Danzig (with Scar The Martyr), August 9th 2013

Opening act: Scar the Martyr

Sick stage props.

A very blurry Glenn Danzig

Amazing 25th anniversary of Danzig show at the Docks in Toronto (which is one of the worst venues in the city). Sub-par sound, terrible venue location, overpriced parking but fucking awesome show. I was really curious to see if Danzig could still rock and even at 58 he brought it and then some. Awesome.
