Hey, I've been on SloanNet for a while, but usually I just read, and I think this is the first time I've actually gotten off my butt and posted something. I, too, was excited to hear about the Thrush Hermit show. Actually, initially I was excited to hear about the Plumtree show ('cause I just love their song on the Cinamon Toast compilation, mainly), but then I got more excited when I found they were opening for Thrush Hermit. My friend Jen always thought of them as the band who sings that song about the french in hell (hee hee).
I'm 19 + a couple of months, and I'm trying to decide which show to go to... the all ages is earlier (ie. I can take the bus home to the suburbs with less difficulty) and the audience will have more energy (a good thing, or is it?), but the later show would tend to be the one bands devote more energy too (so I hear) and I am over 19. Mmmmm. I'll probably go to the all-ages one, perhaps will learn a lesson by doing this. Any advice out there? And for sizzleteen and Shanan: the Rivoli is a cool club, I went a bunch of times before I was 19 and never had a problem (although sometimes they announce that specific shows are for 19+), and is located on Queen St. west of the subway line. You get off at St. George (i think, the one that's on queen) and walk west, past Muchmusic HQ to get there. See y'all there. murray
