Various - The Last Pogo DVD
www.thelastpogo.net (http://www.thelastpogo.net/)
DVDdocuments the raucous 1978 punk concert held at the legendary Horseshoe Tavern – A night of unhinged music and unbridled mayhem. The concert featured seminal bands from Toronto's punk rock scene: The Scenics, The Cardboard Brains, The Secrets, The Mods, The Ugly, The Viletones, and Teenage Head. During the concert the frenetic energy of 500+ thrashing fans boiled over and a near riot ensued. Filmmaker Colin Brunton was there with a film crew to capture it all, from the irreverent punk musicians, and the slam dancing audience, to the police who tried to stop the show, and the firefighters called in to escort people from the premises.

Prime Ape Got The Blues - It's Not Easy Being A Digital Being review on Highbeam.

[*crying stars*]

The Bronx and Keane, please.

[i'm a big deal.]

Dragonette is my latest obsession!

[ColinB]

Oh, for sure someone should take a look at my film THE LAST POGO. 1978 Toronto punk rock with Teenage Head, Viletones, Scenics, Ugly, Mods, Cardboard Brains, Secrets.

When Teenage Head attempt to headline this farewell to the Horseshoe Tavern, a drunken cop straddles up from the bar, and only lets them play one song. Me and the crew get kicked out; our sound recordist is there for the 20-minute riot, and records a symphony of broken tables and chairs. Good times!

[GRock07]

Review Self Made Soul!!!!!! They are the best band ever!!!!

[Trylon]

Self Made Soul
==========
Here's what the Hartford Advocate had to say about them:
Self Made Soul has grown up into a hooky, punky, alt-rock colossus. It's clear that these guys are smarter than your average bears right from the album cover, which is made to look like a well-worn, leather-bound book. But it gets much deeper inside, when the credits explain the whole affair was written, recorded, produced, Photoshopped, and laid out by core band members Alex Anderson and Randy Roswell. (The only things they didn't do were mix and master the thing.) The tunes are slick and catchy, even poppy at times, but the lyrics are subversively smart. Angelika Hirtler's ethereal backing vocals suffuse the tracks with a soft glow. While many musicians cop out by saying they're "inspired by life," The Future is Self Made Soul's step-by-step blueprint for actually living a fulfilling life. It's no self-help album — it's the musical equivalent of waking up bathed in sunbeams.

[pixie0804]

Review Self Made Soul!! I've seen them a bunch of times and can't wait to see them again! This album ROCKS!!!
