We can't go off to The Woods today....

..see that The Woods, our local mortuary/music venue, will be closing down.  I have to admit, that even though within long walking distance and an initial excitement over that fact, I seldom was drawn in by the bookings (and the fact that in the beginning, there was no hard liquor...never got the beer thing...) The few standouts I did manage to catch, however included Robyn Hitchock and Joe Boyd and Sean Lennon....both were amazing shows!!  Hopefully someone will step in and make it work as a music venue.  Friday night holds many opportunities - Holcombe Waller at The Alberta Rose and if that don't work for you - Fernando will be at the Laurelthirst trying to raise money for a new record.  His last one was brilliant...so help a guy out!  And for the head bangers, I just saw that Anvil is playing Dante's in February...you know you secretly want to go.....
