Culture Club and Platinum Blonde show TD Place retro is still cool!
What an incredible start to fall it’s been for live music in Ottawa. Last week the TD Place Time Machine took us back to the 90s with an incredible dance party and a wicked Canadian rock reunion show with Our Lady Peace and I Mother Earth. Tuesday night it was a trip all the way back to the early 80s with Platinum Blonde and Culture Club.
TD Place rolling out the time machine starting later this week!
Remember the 90’s? How about the 80’s? Remember the amazing music we used to listen to on our Sony Walkmans? Well over the course of the next month, or so, TD Place in Ottawa is going to take you on a journey back to the good ol’ days of the 80’s and 90’s.
