I found where it is (just before that Market off Hillside), wow, they've held gigs there before? Jeez, that's like 2 blocks away from where I live (and walking distance to the 5th Street :). What is it with this neighbourhood, there's always either somewhere to jam or see bands. - Tue, 31 Jan 2006 8:50pm

I'm really excited about this gig. It'll be the first time the Switchblades have played in several months, and only their second (I think) all-ages gig in Victoria.
I saw soundcity a couple months back over in Van when they were supposed to play with The Hudsn Falcons who didn't make it across the border. The Soundcity Hooligans made the show worth the trip over, they're great streetpunk.
I'm expecting a lot from Alternate Action too, Gregs been in a million different punk/Oi! bands in Alberta/BC and they're all top quality. This I think will be their second show ever.
Like most people, I've heard a load about The Mags, I'm happy I'll finally get to see them.

And that's some shameless promotion! - Thu, 2 Feb 2006 10:48am

The show was excellent actually. Soundcity Hooligans almost didnt make it due to Van problems and the ferries but they got there eventually and managed to bust it out for the crowd. The other bands were great as well, and the crowd turned out to be a pretty decent size and as far as i could see everyone seemed to be having a blast. It's nice to see a show every once in a while that is totally different from most of the bands at the all agers nowadays. - Sun, 5 Feb 2006 5:02pm

Cool that this went well for you guys. I'm curious about how it was in terms of noise outside the venue, and dealing with neighbours. Was this an issue at all? - Mon, 6 Feb 2006 4:18pm

Everything went well. all we had to do was ensure that all the doors were closed and outside noise wasn't a big issue. It all went without a hitch and the hall manager that lives next door was totally cool. - Tue, 7 Feb 2006 2:22am
