Anything to do in Toronto on a Friday nite?
Will be in Toronto tomorrow (Aug 5) and need to know if there are any decent pubs n'clubs to kill an eve after going to record shops all day. I looked at the online listings and it looks like a blandscape of hip hop, country and specious indie folk - although there are a lot of clubs I must say.I would settle for a halfway legit gin joint with a decent jukebox.Any GRGPNKers got the inside scoop?-jake from VGs (NY)See More

- Bio:
- The Von Ghouls are a garage-punk-horror-bubblegum band from the NY/NJ area.
History: In 1999, The Von Ghouls became the first band with animated cartoon episodes on the internet (see http://vonghouls.com). A year later, the band started playing live shows in NYC featuring Jake and Brian Payne (The Undead) on guitar and Pete (The Coffin Daggers) on bass.
The band reformed in Rockland County, NY in 2002 with Dank, Kira and Steve to compete in Little Steven's garage rock competition where they met Mike Fornatale (Cavestomp, The Monks, Richard & The Young Lions, Shaw 'Nuff). A vinyl-only EP was recorded for Zodiac Records, a no-profit Bronx, NY label run by reclusive enigma Rick Manzi (Shondells, Gang War, Air Raid) with various VGs tunes airing on WMFU and other "garage punk" radio shows. After playing live on Sirius' Fangoria Radio, the band died and was reborn again with Jake, Dank, Eric and Little Ricky (Electraluxx, Savage Rooster) as one of NY/NJ's few remaining garage punk acts...

Looking to start a rockabilly band on Long Island.
Hey all, I'm a drummer who is looking to start a rockabilly/rock n roll band with punk influences. Problem is, I've had a real hard time finding people with the same aspirations as I. I'm hoping since y'all are fans of rock n roll I should be a little better off. A big thing is I'm still looking to keep the swing in the music. Age doesn't matter as long as you can rock. Hope we can get something going folks!Peter.See More
