bouche Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 A friend at work is looking for an xmas gift and was wondering about any events that he could bring a girl to.I'm seeing some interesting things at the NAC, but not sure about the girl factor.Bruce Cockburn, Goo Goo Dolls, Harry Manx...I don't see any Cirque shows or anything like that but I may be looking in the wrong place.Anyone have any suggestions?

phorbesie Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 Velvet got me a ticket to Salif Keita at the church for an Xmas present! I am stoked! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted December 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 found more...akron/family and the low anthem in montreal early in the year. Harry manx is coming to NAC, not sure what his short stories music thingy is.I couldn't find any blacksheep shows that I recognized, but a night in wakefield for a blacksheep show, and dinner/room at the Mill is a great gift to impress a chick.

bradm Posted December 23, 2010 Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 (edited) The Barr Brothers are playing at Chez Baptiste sur Masson in Montreal on Monday, Jan. 10. (Note that there's a typo on the Brothers' show page, which has the date listed as Jan. 11. Both The Barr Brothers' MySpace page and Chez Baptiste sur Masson's MySpace page correctly list the show as being on Jan. 10.)I don't think tickets are available on-line.Aloha,Brad Edited December 24, 2010 by Guest Confirm typo on Barr Bros. web page.

bouche Posted December 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2010 totally forgot about Vermont. Great call. As far as Barr Bros go, why do they fly so far under the radar? They aren't listed anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
