Photos: Daft Punk @ Arrow Hall. August 5, 2007.
In an effort to sort through and clean up my storage space, I’ve decided to cull through photo sets, trash the completely unusable photos and post a bunch online from shows I have shot in the past. There will be no specific order to this, or designated day for these posts, it’ll just be something I do when I have some spare time. First up, … Continue reading Photos: Daft Punk @ Arrow Hall.

Weekly playlist #9: PAUSE
Hey there. Well, in case you didn’t notice, last week I didn’t upload a playlist. A few changes came up in my day-to-day life the last couple of weeks that took a much larger chunk of time than I expected, so for this week I’m presenting a longer playlist without the notes, as I have previously done. I aim to be back next week with … Continue reading Weekly playlist #9: PAUSE
2019 – Week 8 Playlist: All the Stars
Autumn 2009 was a busy time for me, and it was a time that saw me start the original version of Tunes in TO. Though the site launched in October that year, I spent much of September building up content to start the site with. One of the very first shows I shot for the site was when The Antlers played The Horseshoe Tavern, who … Continue reading 2019 – Week 8 Playlist: All the Stars
#TBT – Hollerado @ Osheaga 2013
It’s been twelve years since Hollerado played their first shows, which seems a bit short because I feel like they’ve been around forever. I’ve seen them at least 10-15 times, in every possible setting. They’ve played opening and headlining club spots, festival sets, random parties, you name it. One of the last few times I shot one of their performances was actually over five years … Continue reading #TBT – Hollerado @ Osheaga 2013
2019 – Week 7 Playlist: Motion Sickness
Kicking off this new week is Sunflower Bean. If the name rings a bell, it could be that you remember their song “I Was a Fool” was included on my Best of 2018 playlist. It could also be the fact that just last week they were announced as the artist in the very tiny print on a large tour this summer that sees Beck and … Continue reading 2019 – Week 7 Playlist: Motion Sickness

#TBT – The Tragically Hip @ The Supermarket
Yesterday was the birthday of Gord Downie. I didn’t get to see any of their dates on the final tour in person, but this is a photo of the last time I saw The Tragically Hip play: a series of 3 song mini-sets at Supermarket to promote the release of Now for Plan A. I couldn’t tell you what the other two songs were that … Continue reading #TBT – The Tragically Hip @ The Supermarket
