5440

Ns_disc_cover_web

Now I know that Vancity's Cancon trailblazers 5440 have played this area a few times of late but circumstances have determined that I haven't see the band live since, well,...its been a while. In fact I think that last time was when they played the Siren or Adrenaline or whatever club was on the site on the now restored Regent Theatre...so its a bit odd, just a bit, that 5440 will play the Regent on November 23 and I'll more than likely be at it. Same band, same ol' me, same space...different room...interesting.
Also announced the Irish Rovers for December 3...with Lord Of The Dance, Great Big Sea, Celtic Tenors and now the Rovers all coming through town in the next month anyone would "tink" we're having an early St. Pats Day. I didn't know there were that many Hibernophiles in the area... looks like we'll be having a green Christmas regardless of the weatherman's forecast.

It was the Adrenaline! Siren was where the Big Sexy is now.

Only $35. a ticket? A real "steal" you might say.

About Will McGuirk

  • Will_McGuirk
    • William McGuirk believes that Canadian music will not feed the world but it will provide moments of digestive relief. Tears are not enough but sometimes that's all we have. That we are not here for a long time so have a good time and support local artists. He has been yelling in the wilderness for 15 years. He needs a home and has been dewormed. He's got 6,000 years of Irish in him so don't believe a word of it.
