MUSIC PREVIEW: Alexisonfire, not broken up after all, returns to Edmonton
There are few things that can boost a band’s popularity more than breaking up. You do the tearful farewell tour, a lot of your fans show up to see you off, you make some retirement money, and everyone’s happy. Yet still a bit sad – until of course said band gets back together again. Behold […]

NYE LIVE MUSIC PREVIEW: Which whine pairs well with giddy desperation?
Working musicians look forward to New Year’s Eve as the best payday of the year – yet the gig is fraught with annoyances. First, you’re playing second fiddle to the event itself; you’re expected to play Auld Lang Syne at midnight; and everything after is a drunken depressing anticlimax.
