Event Description

ABOUT.....

We all grew up in the greatest of Canadian Rock and Roll towns somewhere on the hard road of old Ontario. For me local venues such as the Terrapin Tavern, Frosty Muggins, the Shamrock, Loyalist Hotel, the Penguin and the most noted purveyor of fine local talent the Manor regularly promoted and showcased the dedicated efforts of young musicians taking their wares from basements and garages to their appreciative fans. It was almost 35 years ago that you could see the likes of the Hip performing at local parties on a friday night, Moist at the toucan, the Headstones, the Raging Groovies at the Dukes, and Avril Lavigne at a local corn roast at Finkles Shore in Bath.

2018, and an Idea somewhat borrowed, somewhat dreamed, I wanted to relive youth, buy back time, bring back memories and create some new ones. This is 2021 another successful show that will do just that. Local Bands, local setting, and multi-generational. We ve seen the rise of so many talented groups so please come and be part of history as we usher in a new generation of music loving Kingstonians and support the dreams and talents of the next generation of performers!

We re Green!

TRI-CANADAIN ENERGY supplies our power needs with direct drive solar technology! What that means, the sun goes in and the music goes out! TRI-CANADIAN ENERGY has met our demands with ease and had enough reserve to keep it going for days! Thats lights, cameras, PA, amplifiers, without any connection to the grid!

How about that?
