Coming up ...


Hello, Your Band Sucks!

December, 17 2006 at Your Band Sucks' WAVELENGTH debut! College + Bathurst / www.wavelengthtoronto.com, + GHOST HANDS + OPOPO, Cost: PWYC


Dec 17: Doc Pickles,

co founder and host of Wavelength since its inception, says taa taa to y'all! + GHOST HANDS + OPOPO After 7 great years Doc Pickles is leaving the Wavelength announcer/ranter mic to work on Your Band Sucks new cd and his second baby (CD due out in shelves May 2007, baby boy due out of mother's uterus Valentine's Day 2007). Dec 17 is the night to say goodbye so long to old friends and new from those Wavelength years. Nobody thinks Doc can sing or play because they picture him as the upbeat but cranky host of Toronto's finest music series, which brought you breakout shows from Peaches, Broken Social Scene, the Constantines, Creeping Nobodies, I Am Robot And Proud, and hundreds of other great bands. After 7 years of waiting in line Doc Pickles' band will get to play and be added to the list! Also come to welcome Secret Handsnakes' Spencer Butt as he becomes Wavelength's new host! There are other bands on the bill brought to you by Eric Warner, also it's Trevor Coleman's birthday. Come to Wavelength for Doc's last kick at the indie cat! Doc promises a green light trick darkly hints at throwing down the last and ultimate Bilderberger rant.
