A RECORD A WEEK
We’ve been kind of lazy on this whole blog thing lately, but I assure you we haven’t been lazy with purchasing records. Last week we unknowingly went with a We Are Busy Bodies theme. I purchased a Metz 7” while Peter got a TV Buddhas record and the new Meligrove Band record. All ended up being really great.
This week I went ahead and bought the new Diamond Rings record. Part...
Get To Know A Local Band - Howler
We played with Howler back at the start of October in St. Catharines, near their home of Grimsby. They had opened for Attack In Black a few weeks earlier and I had heard they nearly shown them up. Needless to say, I was skeptical.
Comprised of 4 girls and 1 one guy (that was the lineup for this show, at least), they blew Peter and I away. All around the ages of 16-18 (I believe), they play...

I stumbled upon Modern Superstitions a few weeks ago having heard their name thrown around quite a bit in the last few months, specifically in...
TRINITY.
Peter and I have known Jay Sakuta from Villains for years now and just yesterday we found out that he has a heart (not true). He`s raising funds to get a bike for a special needs girl so you should definitely check out that link here. We`re proud to say that we`ve donated already and I`ll definitely be picking up a shirt as well.
As far as records go, it was rent week last week, so I was too...
HALLOWEINERS.
We had a Halloween (Devil’s night) show in Guelph on Saturday and we went as a dysfunctional family. Here are some pictures by Cam’s girlfriend Kat:
