Hm. That didn’t go as planned at all.
If you’re here reading this right now, it’s most likely because you’ve clicked a link from Twitter or Facebook informing you ThatRockBlog.com isn’t the rabies-infected Labrador Retriever you thought it was, so you can probably put down that rifle now. In fact, we’re busier than ever. Our work just doesn’t necessarily end up on the site.
True to his word, Pearce has actually been busy churning out album reviews but alas, the cruel hand of crappy PC fate slapped him right in the vas deferens when it crashed horribly last month, taking all his hard work with it. Since the tragedy, Pearce has been working on lining up shows for our kick-ass little band, The Best Revenge. We’re headlining a show at The Balmoral with local weirdos Elton Bong and Tight Solid on the 17th, and this is your exclusive invitation. Doors at 9, only $7 (more info).
Meanwhile, I’ve been sowing the seeds for coverage on the West Coast south of the border. As you may have noticed on our sidebar, we’ll be covering the upcoming Jenny Lewis show at WWU on the 22nd, possibly with guest photographer Krystin Norman! We’ve also been staying up to date on various local artists, and Pearce, Kaleena and I will all be at The Beehive tonight, partying with Katie GoGo and Suzy Q of Junior Major. To top it all off, I’m finally getting paid for my work: Check out this outstanding Glasvegas review from Exclaim.ca, complete with – though I can’t prove it – my shot from Richard’s last Sunday.
It’s just a clusterfuck of music mayhem these days, and I hope you’ll stay with us in the months to come as we plow towards 2010. We’re really not going anywhere. We just like taking extended naps.
