Caveman Morrison frontman Tym Morrison has announced his next two solo acoustic shows, and they'll take place over two of the next three Fridays (February 15th & March 1st, to be exact!) One month after he played his first 2013 gig at The Roadhouse Bar & Grill on Trunk Road, both of his next shows will take place there as well, which is definitely becoming a recent live favourite of his for these unplugged concerts! Both of these shows were announced on Thursday, and both should have 19+ age limits, no cover charges, and 10:00 PM start times, so check the above links for more details! It's great to see Tym's popular unplugged shows keeping up, so I'd keep trips out the East End in mind in the next few weeks for his next Friday night shows at The Road House, and of course, any more shows from either his solo project or Caveman Morrison as they come in! Stay tuned for any possible updates!Before we get to the concert preview, just a note on a debuting band this weekend. Some of you may have heard of a new Sault Michigan band named Toast that played their first show at Dondee Lanes last night. All I know is that their lineup includes former Swayze Train bandmates Melissa Strand, Mike Libertoski, & Tony Rogers, so while there's clear metal in their background, I don't know enough about them yet (i.e. genre, full lineup, online pages) to fully get into them on here yet. If I hear more, I'll let you guys know!
Now, to this weekend's remaining hard rock concert, and if you're gonna miss TONIGHT'S near-sold out April Wine concert in Sault Michigan, why not take the 40 minute drive south to Barbeau to check out Banned at The Cozy Corners Tavern & Grill? In the first of two stops for the band at this regional tavern, the Kinross hard rock standouts will be returning to Barbeau for the first time since August for tonight's gig, which should see Banned break out a solid set of covers and original material, as usual! A cover charge hasn't been announced for this 21+ concert, an a start time of 8:30 PM is advertised on their Facebook page. Check the above links for more details! Banned's busy scheduled continues tonight, and you know Alex and company should deliver a fun night of music at The Cozy Corners, so don't miss TONIGHT'S action! For a preview, here's Banned takin' care of business in Hessel last spring!
Also in the news, remember on Monday when we plugged Sault Michigan classical metal band Theatre of Night's Kickstarter campaign to raise money for their "Christmas Night" re-recordings this year? Well, we completely missed the band's promotional video to go along with it, and it contains some extra information! Uploaded to the band's YouTube channel on Monday, it's similar in composition to many of their earlier promo clips, but it features a general overview of their campaign to raise $7,000 to fund this new album, including that they plan to have the recorded tracks mixed & mastered in Munich, Germany (likely as singer Gaby Koss is from Germany.) As well, they're aiming for the 2013 re-recording to feature 14 tracks (up from 12 on the 2011 instrumental version), and to make all of this a reality, they need YOUR help! Surpriginly, no funds have been raised yet, so if you want to help make this ultimate 2013 version of "Christmas Night" a reality, click here and give what you can (you have less than 2 months), and check out their new video below!
And finally for today, here's some recent updates I made to entries in our YouTube Channel Profile Series, just to make them more accurate and current! In our profiles on both of Garden of Bedlam's original YouTube channels, I restored some featured photos, which I also did on the profile for guitarist Josh Belleau's old channel, albeit with some added notes on more recent band and personal channels (like this one.) In our profile of local electronic/hard rock project Candle Hour's YouTube channel, I updated references on their current status (as they've uploaded no new music in 9 months), while our profile on dutters23's channel was updated to reflect the deletion of all of his videos for unknown reasons (the local ones were 3 Woods of Ypres songs), but I relinked active YouTube copies of said songs there from other users. Finally for this batch of updates, I added references on ex-Bear Hunters guitarist Mike Vincent's YouTube channel to note his latest video, which features him looking through a horde of Pokemon figurines. Stay tuned in a future post for updates on Sault Michigan-centric profiles in this series!That's all for today, but stay tuned for a new news post likely tomorrow, along with this month's Defunct Local Band Profile on No Arrow! Thanks everyone!
