The Tragically Hip at Jackson Triggs Winery: Niagara-on-the-Lake, ON

June 28 2012


I was very lucky to get tickets for this concert.It was at a Winery at Niagara on the lake called Jackson Triggs. Now this was really not my thing but I knew Liz would love it and I was right.She loved it and the venue was prefect.Very small and great seats and a great view.I think maybe 300 people but I am not sure, After Liz sat in just about every seat she found some she liked and they where excellent..A great view we had 3rd row great view.The sound was clear and the band was the best I have ever seen.I think this was 6 th time i have seen and Liz has seen them 3 times.

I love that the Hip is huge in Canada and plays huge concerts ib Canada but in the usa they play to way smaller crowds. So THe hip are Canadian and we love them

Great Concert Great Venue

Juan of The Dead

Toronto After Dark Summer Screenings

Juan of The Dead

June 27 2012

So Liz and I are back at the bloor for the first time since the renovation and it was kinda nice.It is wierd but when it was a run down place it flet like home,but that being said the new place is great.I also think that if the renovation had not been done the place would have closed..so anyway the movie.

Juan of the Dead was great, i loved it. Very funny and lots of action.it is a Cuban Zombie film and i belive the first Cuban film I have ever seen.Lots of great Kills and and a few things I have never seen on film before.

The second movie Liz and I did not see as we had a busy the next night.

Great start to the Summer Screenings

PS I want to buy this movie on blu ray and I even tried to find a Juan T-shirt but could not find one..keep looking

I would say 8 out of 10.
