050906 Drums & Tuba/Dave Lauzon, Ottawa, ON
I believe this might mark the last time I saw Drums & Tuba, a quirky-by-definition trio that first came to my attention at an Ani DiFranco concert on this exact date in ’99…
050816 Pearl Jam, Ottawa, ON
It’s great to see a band when they are still on top of their game, even if they’ve been there for a quarter of a century. I don’t know how it took so long for me to jump on this band’s wagon but I will definitely be seeing Pearl Jam again and again and as often as I can from now on…
