When All Your Friends Festival announced they would be putting on one of Canada’s largest Punk Festivals featuring some of Canada’s very own punk-rock and pop punk bands, it struck all our hearts like the piano G cord introduction to “Welcome To The Black Parade”. Taking place at the famous festival grounds of Burl’s Creek – famously known for their Boots & Hearts Festival which took place just 2 weeks prior – All Your Friends Festival designed the perfect Friday and Saturday to heal the hearts of the pop-punk kids who have grown up alongside the bands taking the stage. The only way to describe it would be 48 hours of pure nostalgia.
Billy Talent rocks Kingston 20 years after debut
Is anyone else having a hard time believing that Billy Talent released their debut album Billy Talent 20 years ago this August? What about Gob? Their album The World According to Gob turns 23 in less than a month. Thanks to both of these acts the Kingston Fronts will need to wait a bit to start their upcoming season while staff at Leon’s Centre rebuild the roof that got blown off the venue last night by a powerhouse display of Canadian rock…or are we calling them classic rock now?!?

This is some of the first live music we have had in a while so needless to say it was going to be a crazy night.
