Finally here are the photos from Arkell‘s set at the Ballroom. I was really excited to see this set and surprised to how crazy full it got when they got on stage. Since I was bowling with Data Romance, Amy and I ran upstairs to catch the set. I didn’t know the Arkells were mostly …

After Data Romance‘s set at the Ballroom for the Rosemary Films MMVA Afterparty. Nightbox was next and they are a band from Ireland now living Toronto? They had that indie pop rock new wave sound, very similar to like Two Door Cinema Club/Tokyo Police Club. Here are some photos I took before I went downstairs …
Attended the Rosemary Films MMVA Official Afterparty at the Ballroom in Toronto on June 19, 2011. The venue is right beside the Much Music building, where they were hosting the big awards ceremony. The place had two floors, the top was the club/bar while the bottom was a bowling alley. I was there to see …

I spent my whole night at the Great Hall at NXNE. It was one of the most talked about shows since it was the Weird Canada/Flemish Eye showcase. There were two three acts that I was excited to see. One I wasn’t familiar and the other I saw the night before. All I can say …
For my Saturday at NXNE. The first show I headed up was at Yonge Dundas Square. I was there to see Dirty Beaches play a late afternoon show. Don’t forget to check out my interview with him. It was nice to see him play in broad daylight.
First show in Ottawa since coming back to NXNE. Feels kind of weird but at least I got to see people I knew tell stories on who I saw at the festival. Considering this year most people in Ottawa stayed for Ottawa Explosion (which I missed out).
I am taking a break from all the photos taken at NXNE. Just found out that another new Coldplay song just dropped. It has been just a few weeks since they released “Every Teardrop Is a Waterfall“. Now the full single will come out on June 26, 2011. With two b-sides one being Major Minus. …
