Rock Sellout — Behind the Music Well, firstly, apparently Spencer Krug is the busiest man in the biz, but then again so was Dave Grohl back in the day and who really care’s who’s been a bizzy, bizzy bee with so many admittedly fascinating collectives as Wolf Pa... read more »

Allan's World Music — Sunday’s are generally a crappy day to go out. Having to bus all the way downtown sucks with the great Sunday hours the TTC provides us. However, making the trip to see Sunset Rubdown proved worthwhile. It’s puzzling that I could barely find someo... read more »

Cafe Eclectica Music - Your Omniphonic Music Source — Alright kids, you've been very, very patient with me and I appreciate it.

crushd tin box — It’s surprising that a venue of this size wouldn’t get overpopulated when a band like Sunset Rubdown plays at it. I’m convinced it’s a different scenario when they play overseas. But given the fact there was only a small crowd that turned up , ga... read more »
