shows in southern Ontario

My name is jip, and i'm in a rock outfit from Thunder Bay called Vaya, and we're going to be touring Southern ontario this May.

If anyone in here knows of some venues/places/bands that we can play at or with, it'd be much appreciated.

Either contact vayaband@hotmail.com, or respond to this thread.

We would be most happy to return the favour sometime!

woot!

sweetness!
If anyone knows how and if the livid would play a show with us at the masonic lodge, would you be able to hook me up with some contact information?


Princess Punk: Would you be able to play some of our tunes on your show or something? We have friends here at Lakehead University who do the "Pretentious Indie Fun Hours" and some other shows (only online at the moment).

Anyways....

thanks for the help! keep it coming if you can!!

Hey Jip,
A few places you might want to call:

Horseshoe Tavern
Lees Palace
The Reverb
Kathedral
The Hardball
Club 360
Elmocambo

go to http://www.eye.net/music/chart/ for a listing of Toronto Clubs w/phone numbers

I've been calling around myself trying to book more shows for The Livid. If I'm asked if I know any other bands, I'll surely bring you guys up.

Also I'm considering renting out The Opera House In Toronto for a Livid show.. by the looks of it I will need other bands if I'm going to do this.

Just to let you know, Toronto is a tough place to play. It's not too hard go get a gig, but at some of the places above, if you don't draw a decent number of people when you play, you probably won't be playing there again for a while. Also keep in mind, that clubs down here don't really pay bands anything unless they have the ability to pack the place. My advice is to make sure that you have a strong enough fan base to support a tour. Otherwise you'll be wasting your money.

Dag

PS if you need any help or anything feel free to email me streetteam@thelivid.com

Hey Jip, I've heard some of your songs and I think they're pretty sweet. I'd love to see you guys play a show down here.

Good bands to play with:
The Livid
Illscarlett
Keepin 6

A great venue to play at is the Burlington Music Centre. Or at the masonic lodge, because that's closer to me and only I am important.

The night's as hot as hell. It's a lousy room in a lousy part of a lousy town - I'm staring at a goddess. She's telling me she wants me. I'm not going to waste one more minute wondering how I've gotten this lucky. She smells like angels ought to smell, the perfect woman... the Goddess. Goldie. She says her name is Goldie.

i love help.

thanks a lot all you guys!
Dagger: We've already booked a show at Club Rockit, here are the details as were emailed to me:

FRIDAY MAY 21ST

ROSESDEAD
MARE
DEAR JANE, I
VAYA
STARRING JANET LEIGH
ABSENT FROM PHOTO

@CLUB ROCKIT, 120 CHURCH ST TORONTO
DOORS 6, BANDS 6:30, $8/$7 with canned good


We will get in touch with those venues you've mentioned though, either for future reference or to actually pursue some other shows in the city.

Mat L: well.....unfortunately we're already playing on the 21st....but i WILL post the rest of our available dates as soon as i find out which are confirmed or not.

Paige xox: if you could help me get in touch with some of the bands you've mentioned, sometime in may that'd be incredible. do the burlington music centre and masonic lodge have any restrictions as to when shows can be put on? (ie. only saturdays etc)...

much thanks once again!
I'm looking forward to perhaps meeting you all in person at some point!

Hey dude, welcome to the board! I'm from Marathon and went to Lakehead for a year before I transferred down here to Guelph. How's the scene in T. Bay? I miss The Apollo like crazy...

P.S. I just checked out your site and listened to "No Ground". You guys are fantastic! You also have great taste in music. Moneen is god.

P.P.S. A guy I know from Marathon plays in the band Watching You Die. Do you know them at all? He's a crazy mofo.
