Earl Greyhound - Toronto tonight (jan 18th) + MTV live

[M]

My friends Earl Greyhound from NYC are playing Toronto tonight -- Thursday, Jan 18th. Their show is being promoted by Emerge/NEXT who've coupled No Dynamics (excellent choice... explosive pairing) with them for this gig @ the Silver Dollar.

Earl Greyhound are an unbelievable live act. This band is blowing up... Chris Robinson from the Crowes has a man-crush on my buddy Matt Whyte (singer/guitarist) .. Kamara Thomas (bassist) just destroys ... I could go on and on... but I'll sum it all up in that their CMJ performance this past year made my top 5 shows of 2006. They're pretty much redefining modern rock n' roll, in my opinion.

I got them on MTV live today, so if you want to see 'em, check out the show. They are there soundchecking now... and I'm gonna go there to see them perform later.

It's real music... a true treat in both sonics and aesthetics. This trio is breathing new life into rock. Come out tonight and see them if you can. You won't regret it.

wow, that's more hype than even jaydawg can dish out

my two cents - the album is decent, a bit over the top and convoluted in places but listenable, definitely loud, never seen them live but would definitely like to.

Damn. I had hoped to catch these guys and forgot it was tonight, and I have about 4 places to be in Hamilton. Shit.

Show was KILLER, can't wait to get them back into town... Look for a possible review in NOW this week
