KYEO + CFRU 93.3 FM Present: John K. Samson & The Provincial Band + Mike O’Neill – March 21st – Ebar

 

Just a note that, as of 1:00 PM EST, there are 10 advance tix left at the Bookshelf (41 Quebec St. Guelph) tonight.

BUT, there’s about 50 spots at the door so, if you make it for 9:30 PM, you should get in.

It’s $14 with a non-perishable food item and $16 without. It’s all-ages too.

There’s no restaurant below the Ebar right now, which makes doing shows on time so much easier. We can soundcheck early and be as noisy as we want! AHHHHHHHHHHH!

Here, no foolin’, are the set-times for Wednesday:

9:30 PM- doors
10:00 PM – Mike O’Neill
11:00 PM – John K. Samson & The Provincial Band

See you then.
thanks,

Stay Out of the Mall X – Ebar – Thursday December 15, 2011

Well, after some serious scheduling issues that almost derailed the whole thing, I’m happy to report that the 10th anniversary edition of Stay Out of the Mall – A Festive Music Festival is happening this year at the Ebar in Guelph on Thursday December 15th, 2011.

For the 10th year in a row, all proceeds will benefit the Canadian Cancer Society towards leukemia research in memory of my friend Sharon Marshall and we’re again collecting food donations for the Guelph Food Bank. Given how quickly it’s approaching, I ask that you please spread the word about this year’s amazing show as soon as possible.

Here are the details:
