Legends nightclub?!? Jeez, ya gotta watch your back when your partying down there cause of all the airheads starting fights there. I swear to gawd the place is cursed. It's too bad you couldn't have it at the Curling Club for all agers. Oh wait a sec, you could have an all-ager at Legends, don't they have the licencing to do that?!? - Sat, 24 Dec 2005 10:15pm

What makes Devon special are his cohorts in Strappin (Gene, Byron and Jed) otherwise he's just a loudmouth with a bad skullet (Hardy har har) - seriously no more than $10.00 for Devon Townsend Band - Thu, 29 Dec 2005 4:04pm

Dev's new album, Synchestra is pretty diverse! For anyone who isn't familiar with Devin's solo work, be sure to check out Ocean Machine, Terria and Synchestra for sure! Also, Dev has out Punky Bruster, Infinity, Physicist and Accelerated Evolution, along with demo releases and his SYL albums. Not a stinker in the bunch!
Steve Vai makes a guest solo appearance on the track Triumph on Synchestra. Great track! - Wed, 4 Jan 2006 6:44pm

I shall ask around tomorrow, but the promoters in Victoria (some of which I know) should be able to do this themselves without my crippled-ass :) help. - Fri, 6 Jan 2006 12:12am

Doing it in a place that is not a bar raises serious cost issues with rental, security and insurance as well as all the liability that comes with an all ages show. Getting a hall is expensive and putting on shows is pricey and a big headache.
On that note, I would love to see more big all ages shows booked, but Victoria needs more and better venues and people with money and time to spend on it.
Trust me, all ages shows are more fun for the bands usually because of the crowd's enthusiasm. It's just very difficult to get shit happenin'. - Fri, 6 Jan 2006 4:17pm

Yeah too bad they can't just ID at the bars eh like they do in other venues in the states... or from what I've heard (at the actual bar to buy a drink) - Sun, 8 Jan 2006 6:10pm

Yea I've never understood that either. Even The Event Centre can do an All Ager with a bar, but BARS cant. Whats up with that? - Sun, 8 Jan 2006 8:22pm

Well, maybe someone could look into the Event Center for future shows. What's the capacity in there, I wonder? - Mon, 9 Jan 2006 4:51pm

I thought they've done a lot of all-agers at the curling club with a beer garden in full use, or they open up the lounge on the second floor, that would be an awesome venue to do an all-day gig at. Fuck, that place gets busy (eg. Pixies gig). - Mon, 9 Jan 2006 7:00pm
