Thursday, November 11th, 2021Our Lady Peace show #20!! Rather than having to drive to Buffalo to see them at the 1000-cap Town Ballroom, I drove 10 minutes from my house to see them in a tiny 400-cap place much like the first time I saw them at the Tralf 24 years ago. Much like the other modern-day OLP […]

Sunday, November 7th, 2021[Killakoi was also on the bill but I missed them.] Any Given Sin may as well be Shinedown Live Band Karaoke, the singer sounds *just* like Brent.
