Who should go?

Anyone who’s always wanted to be Joey Ramone or any other punk band front man. This travelling show features Greg Hetson (Bad Religion, Circle Jerks), Stan Lee (Dickies), Darren Pfeiffer (Gold Finger, Sum 41) and Steve Solo (adolescents, agent orange) who form a back up band for anyone who wants to get up and sing. There’s a list of songs to choose from, you sign up and...well, you get the idea. In case you don’t get the idea check out this vid

Why should you go?

Come on...who hasn’t wanted to sing in a punk band at least once in your life. But seriously if you’re a fan of punk this is pretty frikkin cool. This show is only hitting up a few select cities in Canada (Montreal, Toronto, Hamilton and London) before they head to New York, and Hamilton’s punk heritage probably was a factor so come on out and do Hamilton proud.

About the venue

This Ain’t Hollywood - one of the best rock and roll bars in Canada, and with the best sound guy in the city you’re always guaranteed a good show. The entrance is at the side of the building (look for the patio), great owners, great staff and awesome music. Weeknight shows often start early (8pm usually) so if you have to work in the morning you can still go. Check times on the website to be sure.
Location: 345 James St N, Hamilton, ON L8L 1H3, Canada

Heaven for Real , Baby Cages , Goodgal (DJ) @ HAVN - April 19th 2017Date: April 19th, 2017 Genre: pop to goth pop Time: 8:30 $10 / pwyc all ages https://www.facebook.com/events/443912272615509/ Who Should Go? If your musical tastes have good range, this show will test them a bit.  Heaven for Real is pretty much a garage pop band.  If you like Sloan, Eric's Trip, or Bright Eyes for instance, you'll probably enjoy Heaven for Real.  Baby Cages is much darker.  Cool vocals that remind me of 80's goth, and a sound that is synth heavy with kind of a velvet underground vibe. Why Should I Go? Both bands are really interesting, if you can get past the genre flip, I think this will be a really good show.

Hamilton Theatre Fun - Frost Bites Festival

Image
For the next few days the fine folks at Hamilton Festival Theatre Company (the people that bring you the Hamilton Fringe Festival every summer) are presenting a imaginative and fun theatre experience that is a perfect respite from the cold of February.  You should go!  It's a really fun experience. Frost Bites is staged at the Cotton Factory located at 270 Sherman Street North.  This spectacular facility was up until as recently as 1972 home to the The Imperial Cotton Company Limited.  In it's heyday the Cotton Company was only second to the steel industry in its contribution to the local economy.  Today the the building has taken on a second life as a home to many local art and creative based enterprises and as an event space. The Hamilton Fringe Frost Bites Festival has taken full advantage of this remarkable and historic building to stage several bite sized theatrical presentations from a number of genres and when I say full advantage I mean it.
