PORCELAIN FOREHEAD reunion show!!!
With the amazing Suppositories.
Saturday, March 20th at the Dominion Tavern, 33 York Street in the Market. (show flyer)
[mini review: the show was fantastic. A full house and plenty of people there coming from far far away! Ottawa was definitely due for a punk reunion. The bands kicked ass and there are pix on the PF Facebook page.

Rotter's Club reunion show at the Elmdale Tavern w/ The Action, Target 21 and Destroyer Scene.
10$ at the door.
[mini review: Target 21 were great. Marty Drew and Scotty brought it back with style. Destroyer Scene played an amazing set of current punk that went mostly unappreciated by the older geezers members of the crowd. The Action... quite the spectacle, but man do they ever sound like a Stones cover band. Punk? I'm thinkin'... uhh... nope.] [Want to see a better review?
