Verge Music Awards...

So by a great random chance I got ticket to see the Verge Music Awards on the 24th (the same day that I flew into Toronto) of September.

Unfortunately Said The Whale did not win their category...but it was really cool being in a club with industry people and having The Banks of the English Bay come on.

The performances were pretty good. Sebastian Granger rocked...they had a fun set and the band he toured with (The Mountains) had such great stage presence and were perfect to photograph. The Stills weren't bad, but several people around me agreed that all the songs sounded the exact same, not to mention the band members. Broken Social Scene can do no wrong... except there wasn't a single girl on stage and they were missing key male members, but still a horn section and 4 guitars...love it.

Thanks to Dawn for accompanying me and watching my drink whenever I jumped up to take photos.
