On Thursday, May 14th, Skate4Cancer's The Cure Is Knowledge Tour will hit Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario! I mention this show because there will definitely be local metal involvement! Sense of Truth are among the performers, and if you've seen them in recent months, you know they always rock the house down! Sense of Truth will be supporting Aurora Ontario pop rockers Brighter Brightest, alongside local punk sockers Scary Uncles, and local indie artist Kalle Mattson at this concert!
Presented by Elements and MTV, this show is absolutely FREE, and yes, this show will be ALL AGES! Of course, this show is for an incredibly great cause, to raise awareness and support to find a cure for cancer. Skate4Cancer itself has been raising awareness and funds for cancer research in cross-country skating tours since 2004, and this tour is another way to help spread word about their cause, and it's great to have them coming here next month! And, for more information, head to the official Facebook event page!
Next up, we have some additions to an upcoming local concert! Remember that June 11th concert at The Oddfellows Hall that I wasn't too sure about? The one featuring Ottawa-based progressive metallers Today I Caught The Plague? Well, some more bands appear to have been added to this show! Now on the bill as well are a pair of death metal bands from Thunder Bay: Faceless Hulk and Norris! Click their names to check out some of their stuff, they ain't bad! Now, there still isn't much proof of this show's legitmacy outside of MySpace, but the fact that all three bands include it on their concert listings must say something! I'll keep you guys posted!Now, we have an update from your favourite local black metallers, Woods of Ypres! Their upcoming tour is in the process of being booked, and they'll be hitting Eastern Canada next 
month, followed by a Western Canada tour in August! Woods will definitely be going to Windsor, Hamilton, and Toronto May 14-16th, with shows in Ottawa, Montreal, Trois-Rivieres, and Quebec City to be booked.
In August, they'll hit Regina, Prince Albert, Edmonton, Calgary, Vancouver, Victoria, and Hangover, Alberta, with shows in Thunder Bay and Winnipeg still to be booked. It's great to see a tour like this, but let's all cross our fingers for a local show somewhere down the road! When full tour details are released, including venues, I'll let you guys know!
I'll leave it at that for tonight, but I'll have plenty more this week, including a local concert preview for this Tuesday's Staind concert, hopefully some more news and updates from all over the place, and fingers crossed, some positive updates on the Kiss campaign! (We're still in third place! VOTE TODAY AT THE TOP LEFT!) Have a good one!
