Finally a page that lists the shows not listed on Ontario Punk... From eye, wounded paw, now, and many other places.... Crust, Ska, Pop and whatever else I find good.
Tthere are some incredible shows comin up, and someone has to get out there and spit beer on the wonderful bands that make up the Toronto scene.....

Check out the show listings to the right, if you don't know the band, check out the band homepage under the links section, then drag your butt away from the computer and GO TO THE BAR.
ARG, FUCK, KILL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So anyone who actually hits this page more than once every six weeks, knows that it's been forever since I updated the show listings. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Contrary to popular belief, and unlike most of the deadbeats who frequent the same bars that I do, I HAVE A JOB, A LIFE AND FRIENDS. Unfortunately updating a web page that barely gets me into shows for free isn't a priority. I'd much rather sit at the planet and...

Anyways, back to "ARG, FUCK, KILL" I spent forever getting listings together, putting them all in the same font, making them look pretty, putting them all on the site. I saved it, checked it, deleted the original THEN, ! IT WAS GONE.... So this is the second update in as many days which sucks cause all I really wanna do is sleep...

There haven't been any reviews or interviews lately, well, cause, I made some friends. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. So not true.  Nonetheless, there have been some great ones. Believe it or not, months later i think i'm actually gonna write one a ramones tribute i saw in NYC.

I guess I've completely given up on what this page was originally supposed to be. I wanted reviews, reader submissions, show listings, interviews. Well. Truth is, all the guys in all the bands i listen to are complete useless and I dont really want to talk to or promote them.

There have been some good shows though. Goofs 20th anniversary at nics was a blast. I think everyone left after dawn, there being no windows we didn't even know.Woundedpaw showcases are always a blast. Uh, also the Fuck Christmas show with Vulgar Deli from Montreal and GMen at sneaks was rumoured to be incredible. I didn't go, but drunken sources inform me I missed the show of the year. Every show is the show of the year.

So here's the page, finally updated. I'm tryin to save so hopefully I'll stay at home and work on internet stuff and then there will be no more complaints about my lack of updates!

later yo!

Yeah yeah, that's John in his pimping gear, and it's not even hallowe'en. I'm leaving this pic up cause the tards are playin this month (a benefit for fuck) and I'll prolly be singin with them (if i get ma voice back). So check it out!

I'm not ashamed to say, well actually I kinda am ashamed to say, last time he was in town I paid eighty dollars for both my date and my ticket. A man who's music is still a finger on the pulse of todays society, consistently catchy, powerful and punk rock as shit. Yeah.
