Evening Headlines: Ox/Forest City Lovers @ The Lo; Tom Wilson @ The WECC

>> Friday 30 September 2011

First up, on November 16th, Sudbury artists Ox drop by the Lo Pub alongside erstwhile 11 questions participants Forest City Lovers.

Wednesday, November 9th sees Tom Wilson (of Blackie and the Rodeo Kings/Junkhouse/ LeE HARVeY OsMOND) play the WECC.

Montreal-rooted indie rocker Mark Sultan is scheduled to play the Royal Albert on October 29th. Highly doubtful, though, considering this recent bit of Albert-related news in yesterday's FreeP.

Mark Berube & The Patriotic Few return to town for a gig at the WECC on October 19th.

PEI pop-rockers Paper Lions also return to Peg City for a show at The Lo on October 20th.

Celebrate Halloween at the Pyramid on October 28th with DJs Hunnicut & Co-op and Ric Hard.

Add Acres of Lions to the Ten Second Epic bill going down at the WECC on November 19th.

Finally, the NHL has answered the prayers of many a Winnipeger: Nickelback aren't playing the NHL Face-Off Festival happening at the Forks this Thursday. Instead, the city'll be treated to the musical sounds of, ummm, Three Days Grace, Inward Eye, and Bachman and Turner. On the plus side, the event'll be hosting by George Stroumboulopoulos, and with any luck we'll finally learn whether his surname actually fits on the back of a hockey jersey.

By protesting so loudly about the possibility of a Nickelback so, it's like Winnipeg signed a document and presented it to the NHL. Like a contract.

Extending that analogy, getting Three Days Grace on the bill is like adhering to the letter of such a contract contract, while completely violating the spirit of it.
