Hi & thanks for the add,
We're coming to Vancouver for an outdoor matinee at 2pm on Sunday, October 25th right in the heart of the city! (starts at noon)
It's called L'Octoberage and it's at a place called 'Le Mirage', a converted 48 passenger coach and surrounding gardens at 345 E 1st Ave (across from Artech Lofts).
There will be homemade perogies, ethically raised pork, home made beer, hot chocolate, and several musical acts, including Acres and Acres, Jon Mckiel, and Klarka Weinwurm (all from Halifax).
I can't wait for this show!
Tell your friends,
Dave
