phorbesie Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Hoping to go. but have a dinner party in Aylmer beforehand so I'm not sure if we can go or how much of the show we will be able to catch. especially since, as you say, it could be pretty packed in there, if more than the usual number of patrons show up, which i'm guessing may be the case?

bradm Posted March 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 It was an awesome show last night. The band grooved hard, and had a wall of saxophones (at least four, by my count), including Rob Frayne blowing harder and stronger than I've seen him play in recent years. Mugshots was pretty packed, but wasn't uncomfortably crowded. I think the band is looking to make this a regular thing at Mugshots, like one Saturday a month.
