Caught the Minus 5 / Baseball Project / Steve Wynn IV at the Horseshoe Tavern in Toronto on Sunday. Stellar performance! You look so intense on the drums. :) The whole show was great. Best night of music I could have asked for! And I'm so glad that Peter was able to talk to me for a minute. I really look up to him as a musical inspiration. (Also slipped him our debut CD... I hope all of you enjoy it!) Thanks again for a great show and an awesome night out! Cheers!
