Hey All,

We're brand, spanking new to this site, but joined in the hopes of connecting with some cool people who live in other parts of Canada. Just thought I'd poke my head in and see if people were interested in sharing resources on venues and contact info. for movers and shakers (both bands and venues/promoters) in their respective scenes...we'd be willing to do our part here in Edmonton. Any takers?

Rock On,

Alex

This thread is actually a fantastic idea, i'll contribute for Windsor

Milk Coffee Bar - Pretty small, great staff, dim lit, small stage, makes for a good personal show

Contact Owner Angelo with his facebook: http://www.facebook.com/milkcoffeebar

The Phog Lounge - Smaller than milk, rated number one venue in canada or some shit
Contact Tom Lucier, facebook: http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=603168324&ref=ts

The Coach And Horses - Great underground venue, because it's literally underground! It's the basement to another venue called the FM Lounge, and on top of that i believe is The Loop, but that place is just for DJs and Hip Hop artists i think. The coach mostly does metal shows, played there before, you feel like you're in a medieval bar or some shit being here.

The Blind Dog - was once the "high point" of Windsor, was where all the so called "big names" played. Like the cancer bats, lights, protest the hero, napalm death, etcetera blah blah blah. Anyway, it's not functioning anymore, suspected arson. Well definite arson, what kind of random blaze starts in every corner of the venue? Dumbasses. They replaced it with the..
Dominion House - Just started taking on shows, is filling the shoes of the blind dog, many of the touring acts have changed their stops from the smoldering shit ass blind dog to the DH!

Facebook has any info you'd need: http://www.facebook.com/theDominion.House 

Villains Beastro - The most badass place in Windsor, everything is based on famous villains. I'd imagine if you walked in dressed up as a famous villain they'd give you cheap drinks.

You'd think with all of these venues that Windsor would be a bustling music city, lolnope.

There's a very close-knit community of music lovers, and they're the musicians themselves. 

Okay... I'm done
