Local Concert Preview, New Local Band, & Stillbroke Updates!

Greetings and salutations, one and all! It's time for another post, and I got updates on an upcoming show and a new local band to check out, but first, there's a local metal concert TOMORROW! That being said, here's your local concert preview!

Tomorrow night at Coch's Corner, local modern hard rockers Sense of Truth return for a new live show! They'll be supporting Kitchener based alt-rockers Vacuity! They're not a metal band by any stretch, but they are the main attraction for the show, and who knows, maybe you'll like them, so check them out on MySpace! There is NO COVER CHARGE for this show, and everything kicks off at 10:00 PM tomorrow night! For more info, and to confirm your attendance, head over to this concert's official Facebook event page! I dunno if I'll make it, especially on a night where I have class the next morning, but if you guys are going, feel free to let us know!

Of course, you probably know Sense of Truth best for winning the skate park fundraiser Battle of the Bands last year at The SpeakEasy, but they've built a great profile for themselves over the past year, including supporting The Trews and State of Shock, and taking part in the Sick Jams For Sick Kids fundraiser in December! They're a great band, but don't take my word for it! Check them out on MySpace, and here's a live video of Sense of Truth from last year performing their original song "Everything Explodes"!



Now, here's the new local band I promised! I found about these guys from a Facebook note! They are M7K, a new project featuring Despised Eyes drummer and former Devastation of the Heavens frontman Mike Ladouceur! They have one original track, "Damien's Arrival", posted on their official PureVolume page! No vocals, but it does sound promising! Check out Mike's band pages above to hear what M7K might have to offer in the future! And of course, they're now in the Local Metal Band Links section to your left!

There, now let's get to some other random news updates! First off, we have some more updates on the Stillbroke concert on April 1st at The Verdi Hall! You can now get advance tickets for this show from Sara Kutt, who you can reach at 253-8752! Tickets remain $10, and you can also pick them up from the Frigault family at 759-8696 and from Derek Pearce at 575-5171!

As well, some more details about the prizes have been announced! Among the prizes up for draw, there will be two toy baskets, a car care basket, a barbeque/patio basket, a Metallica watch, a Slipknot belt buckle, a guitar tuner, a pick holder with signature picks, a 6 in 1 Xbox 360 pro gamers kit, and maybe more! Also, there will be PIZZA! But don't forget, Stillbroke are also playing a concert that night, so don't forget the main attraction! Check out even more about Stillbroke on Facebook, and confirm your attendance for this show at the Facebook event page at this location! I'm plotting my possible attendance, and you all know, I'll have a review and GOOD photos if I do!

Alright, that's all for now, I will have more this weekend, including concert previews for this weekend's Nixxon Dixxon concerts, and hopefully more, so hang tight for now! Thanks everyone!
