Ottawa, ON @ Mavericks

This was a fun, full on show! We were kamikaze. The show ended with an instrument switch (Brad from guitar to drums, Ryan from bass to guitar and me from drums to bass) that ended with two bloody boys. –Adam.

Windsor, ON @ The Avalon Front

Blank…..must have blocked this humdinger from my memory…..self defense. –Adam.

Ooops! I remember it now. It was really good actually! I played behind one of those plexiglas dividers...like you might see the Corrs drummer, or Santana drummer use. It was a good turnout, a fun show, etc. I can't believe I completely forgot about this show.....It was good! -Adam. (updated May 25, 2005)

Guelph, ON @ The Shadow

This felt like a decade ago and the notes I wrote don’t make a lot of sense.….to prove it, here’s exactly what my notebook says:

-Good set.
-Shitty everything! (I don’t know or remember what this means)
-Bad hotdogs at Frank & Steins…..just a hotdog.

See what I mean, I could lie and make it fantastic…..but I guess this was all there was to it. –Adam.

Brantford, ON @ J’s Place

The only thing I really have to say about tonight is, we got very drunk and we felt like senior citizens back stage. –Adam.

Juno Awards Day

Did the weird red carpet thingy. Ben Mulroney is tanned really tanned. Watched the show and then went back to the hotel and hung out in the lobby bar with all the other bands and friends. Deja-vu. -Ryan.

Winnipeg at The Pyramid

We got to Winnipeg around 11 in the morning and had to do fan fest at 3. After driving all night we were a little tired. But signing other bands cd’s turned out to be fun. Everyone waits in line and they switch the bands up every 30 minutes the people in line end up getting bands or artists that they may not have really wanted. Especially when they had been waiting all day. Kaylin Porter or however you spell his name was before us and I think that some of the autographs we signed were more of a consolation prize. But we did get to meet a lot of our fans and it all turned out to be a good time. After that we went to the Juno awards or day 1 of the awards (not the aired part). They gave out a bunch of awards, we ate dinner, it was a fun time. Only thing is that we had to leave to set up for our show before they gave out the award for best new band which we were in the running for. Good thing we didn’t win. Our show that night was jam packed and it was a good way to re-energize and get some steam back. After that we went back to the hotel and hung out in the lobby bar with all the other bands and friends. -Ryan.

Thunder Bay Apolo

Cool idea at this place. The staff lives upstairs in this big communal type set up. We were serenaded by Maestro Velio in on guitar. He was givin it. Still not sure if he wanted money. On to the show, not a bad crowd and we had fun on stage. And thanks to Marie for showing us the falls and telling us about the lemon trick (way too vulgar to post here.. email us if you must know). -Ryan.
