Feed the Homelesss 5. The event was a huge success, thanks in large part to our Myspace friends helping to get the word out!
A near record crowd enjoyed amazing sets by Jill Zmud, Huntley Slim, and Arms of the Girl .
There was a well attended fun after party with Legendary Zaphod's DJ's Kerri and Arun... Cody Doby Much of Music VJ Contest fame, did a brillant job as MC.
We're playing a show in Ottawa next wednesday, and we'd REALLY like it if you came! Here are the details.
Wednesday November 18th @ Zaphod Beeblebrox (27 York St., Ottawa) Doors Open at 8pm
HotShotCasino - 8:30 Andrew Allen (Vancouver) - 9:10 Epyllion - 10:00
It would be real awesome if you could come to the gig. Honestly, we need to get some warm bodies in there - cause playing to nobody really sucks. :) And venues like Zaphods can only exist if awesome people like yourself go and support local bands like us.
Anyways, it would be really rad if you could come.
