LOCAL CONCERT ALERT, Who Made Who Review, And Skate4Cancer News!

Hello everyone! I do have a LOCAL CONCERT ALERT for everyone, as well as some assorted news, but today, let us start with my review of the Who Made Who concert last night!

So I got there around 10:30 PM, not too far off from the start time, which was around 11:00. Would have been nice to know the start time, but oh well. But when they started, Who Made Who did a pretty good job! They sounded pretty much like you would expect AC/DC to! A few missed notes here and there, but certainly not enough to detract from the performance! The first half of the show featured a good amount of songs that you wouldn't hear on the radio, which surprised me! I figured the set would be just AC/DC hits, but it was cool to hear some songs you don' t typically hear!

The band itself mostly didn't try to replicate AC/DC's look, with the exceptions of the lead singer's Brian Johnson hat, and the guitarist's Angus Young getup! He had the full schoolboy outfit, and even did the bob and duck walk just like Angus does! It's little things like those that can really add to a tribute band performance! The band itself had appropriate energy too, and seemed to really enjoy playing here! The band took a break midway through the set, which was damn near an hour. I would have liked it to be sooner, but the crowd sure didn't care. Most of the fans were perfectly content with drinking and dancing to the 80s metal played over the loudspeaker!

The final half of the show had Who Made Who performing mostly AC/DC classic songs like "TNT", "Back In Black", and "Dirty Deeds (Done Dirt Cheap)" in convincing fashion, and the crowd sure responded! Almost every song had the fans filling the floor and dancing the night away! They eventually finished with "Thunderstruck" as their encore, ending a great night of music! Sure, it wasn't a perfect copy of AC/DC, but I wasn't expecting that. I just wanted to hear some great renditions of the AC/DC classics, and that's what I got! It was overall a very fun show, and you all should have been there!

As you can tell, I took a bunch of pictures at the concert! My camera has a screen problem (Water got in), so if the angles are off, blame that on my inability to see the bottom half of the screen at the moment. So check out the rest of my photos at the SMS's official Photobucket page! I think the virus shit is over for it, but if anyone reports any problems with it, please let me know!

Now, here's that LOCAL CONCERT ALERT I had just mentioned! On May 22nd at Korah Collegiate and Vocational School, locals Stillbroke will be playing a special benefit show to raise money for Justin Thibeault and Matt Clement, who were injured in a car accident earlier this month out near The Trading Post. Tickets will be just $3, and this show will take place at 11:45 AM on that day. It's just a damn shame that this accident had to happen, so hopefully you guys can go out and support Justin and Matt when they need it the most! To send your prayers to both of them, join this Facebook group!

Finally, Donna Hopper has posted a short review of last night's Skate4Cancer show from The Cure Is Knowledge Tour on SooToday! Apparently, there were around 150 fans (small for a free show), and by what was written on the article, the show appears to have went off pretty well! There are 15 photos on there as well, including 4 of local hard rockers Sense of Truth! Also, SooToday has posted a video from the show online, and yes, it features Sense of Truth too! Check it out below, a clip of their performance begins at 1:40, and lasts about one minute!



That's all for today, more news is on the horizon, including a local concert preview for this Tuesday's Blind Witness concert, so stay tuned! Thanks, everyone!
