Over the border

The Expatriates wowed a tiny crowd at Babylon with their heavy instrumental rock - it's a bit like Kinski meets Sabbath ... or at least, I like Kinski, Black Sabbath and The Expatriates, so I figure there's a connection there somewhere.

Michael Weiland shows off some rock moves.



Chris from on low.



One advantage of all these floor-level wide angle shots I've been doing: By the end of the year you'll know what kind of shoes Ottawa musicians favour ...



Bill Guerrero models the Gerard Van Herk look.



Chris and Bill.



Keyboard action from Damien.



Michael stands above it all.



Group action! (Although Michael is on notice - I want a big rock star jump next time he stands on something ...)



There next show is at the Montgomery Legion Hall May 13, along with DD.MM.YYYY, Quebexico, Sudbury's Varge and West Coasters The Doers.

• Show reminder: The Hussies, For The Mathematics and Turning Into Salt play Zaphod's.
