Spring

The last shackles of winter seem to be coming off. Still a little brisk here but the weather has started to allude to some enjoyable nights ahead.

We are lining up our ducks for the summer and, from the outside, it might look like we are hiding out again. Actually, we will be trying to finish up some new jams, putting the final pieces on the 12 inch and getting a solid set in order for when things really start heating up.

We havent yet decided our exact course but we are planning to explore our country a little in July. We will go further than our band has ever gone and spend a lot more time with one another than people reasonably should. More details on that as soon as we have them.

Torontonians, we hope to see you on Saturday. It will be the last for a few months, at least.

Loo, Lee's & King's Town

Lots of people asking about advance tickets for these three shows in March. We'll do our best to run down what we know about those shows here.

--> Waterloo on March 15th w/ Timber Timbre & Hinindar



That's what the Grist Mill looks like. It's damn charming but it's not that big. We hear the capacity is about 70 or 80. We also know that there are no advanced tickets for entry into this magical place. Lots of people have emailed us about this show worried that they won't get in. We don't know what to say about that, really, except come early! Doors are at 8pm.

The Grist Mill is located just to the North of the building at 25 Caroline St North, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, N2L 2Y5. It's at the South East corner of Waterloo Park (to the immediate North of the Canadian Clay and Glass Gallery).


---> Kingston on March 20th w/ Entire Cities & The Gertrudes



Everything you need to know about the Kingston show can be found at the Apple Crisp Fest site here. The show is FREE and it's at a church. Not Dublin St. United as originally planned, but rather at a place called The Next Church, which can be found at 89 Colborne Street. Check the map here.








---> Toronto on March 28th w/ Sister Suvi and Takka Takka

It's funny to be playing a 70-person venue at the start of the month and a 620-person venue at the end. We need everyone in Toronto to come to this! It'll be our last show in town until the summertime. It's also Sister Suvi's CD release party and the first time we'll get to see Takka Takka. It'll be a good time, so please come out. Tickets are $8 and available now at the usual places (Rotate, Soundscapes or even Ticketmaster).

Lots are planned for the days following March but there's not much we can announce just yet. April and May are looking a little low-key but the summer will bring on a storm for Bruce Peninsula. We're very much looking forward to it.
