For the last few years we keep finding ourselves playing at the Agro Cafe (1363 Railspur Alley) on Granville Island at this time of year — playing Fringe Festival afterparties they have there every night at the Fringebar, as part of the Sounds of the Fringe series. This year we’ll be playing there at 9:30 pm, NOT ONLY with our own Dr. T., again promoting his Vancouver Fringe magic show Things That Never Happen, but also we’ll be followed by (or: we’re opening for, if you prefer) last year’s Shindig! winners The Oh Wells. Thanks to Wild Horse Canyon wine and St. Ambroise brewing for sponsoring the stage and venue — now we just need you to come on out and enjoy the party they’re throwing for your benefit! The Globe and Mail marked us as a Hot Ticket!

Update! Another glowing endorsement by DiSCORDER! It was our month to shine in their pages, to be sure.
