Looking to start an Alexisonfire cover band - Seeking musicians.

It's the summer of 2006.Youre taking a break from watering your chai pet. You're watching TV and sipping on your vanilla coke, and that commercial with the house hippo is on TV again. You flip the channel and you land on Much Music and a promo for Alexisonfires newly awaited record, CRISIS, plays though the TV speakers and pisses off your Mom and Dad but you turn the music up and sing "THIS CITYYYY, CITYYYY IS HAUNNNNNNNNNNNTEDDD".

The breakup broke my heart but learning to play and perform their tunes that got me through so much, made me happy, truly. I am a singer and I can sing Dallas parts but I am looking for the following musiciana to jam informally. If we ever get to the stage of play gigs, we can talk about compensation but for the startup, I'm hoping we can jam because we love their music and want to write music eventually with similar influence.

Looking for the following musicians:

  1. Vocalist - Similar to George Pettits style.
  2. Drummer
  3. Basist.

HMU if you're interested and located in the GTA.

Taylor Swift x Vienna

Hi all

My wife and I had tickets to see Taylor Swift in Vienna. Unfortunately as you know, our show got cancelled due to terrorism. We have been unable to secure any tickets to any of her other shows since (issues with ticketmaster, scalpers, robots, protected queues, ect )

We would still really like to see her on her Eras tour. We just wanted to see if anyone had 2 extra tickets that they would be willing to sell for a reasonable price? Maybe $300-400 dollars each? Please let me know and thanks for your consideration !

Rehearsal Space Advice

Hello Everyone,

I (22yo) currently own a recording studio/rehearsal space in my parents’ basement, BUT..

I’m planning on moving to an apartment with my girlfriend in the summer and due to circumstances I would have to pack up all my gear (temporarily) so that my current space can be used by my parents for other purposes (renting, storage, etc.).

I’m thinking of renting a commercial space to be used as a recording studio/practice space for my band, and on days that we are not using it, it can be leased to other musicians on a $/hr basis.

What are some important things to consider when setting something like this up? Gear, Utilities, Soundproofing?, Policies, etc.

I have no knowledge going into this and would appreciate all the advice I could get. Thank you!

Gear/Instruments that I own right now: Electric Guitar, Bass Guitar, Drumkit, Synth (Korg Prologue), Studio Monitors, UR44 Interface, Mics, Vinyl Player, Cajon, Guitar Amp, (Planning on getting a Bass Amp soon), Computer, Ableton, FL Studio.

recommendations and suggestions for permanent jam spaces?

hey there!!

been wanting to take band practise to the next level by creating our own rehearsal space/studio. I'm sure far from the first, so I wanted to know if any of yall had tips or leads you could point me to.

I know there's plenty of great rentable rehearsal spaces but I'm specifically looking for somewhere I can set up and leave equipment too.

any information helps! thanks!

Post-rock; is there room for it in Toronto's music scene?

Hey everyone! I hope you're all doing well! I noticed there's a lot of big post-rock bands coming to the city lately, which is amazing! Russian Circles, Caspian, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, just to name a few. Since there's no scene for this genre in the city, at least that I know of, would any of you likely go to a local show to see a post-rock band? Cheers

Rehearsal space for solo singer in downtown toronto?

Hi,

I'm a solo (amateur) singer and unfortunately cannot record or sing at all in my new apartment (paper-thin walls). I am looking for rehearsal rooms to rent hourly or monthly near King street west / Queen Street West / Spadina / really downtown. I don't need any gear (i have my own), i just need a well soundproofed room where i can sing without bothering my neighbours ;) Let me know if you know any location please :) Thanks
