Strictly speaking

First band of the evening for The Town Cryers reunion was The Semantics. I thought they were okay, if a bit too influenced by current trends in alternative rock for my taste. They had their fans though, a good turnout of pals, I suppose. If they worked on their vocals I might warm to 'em.

I'll start the post by saying I was amazed to discover that Ian McLean, left and Shaun Kerridge, right, are not brothers. Must be the beards.



Bassist Andrew O'Hara also sings a bit. Just not here.



Drummer Daniel Guy.



More Kerridge!



The whole lot!



They have an upcoming show at Baseline Station (the restaurant and not the OC Transpo stop, I presume) Feb. 20.

• Show reminder: Brock Zeman performs at Zaphod's with Ball and Chain and Joshua Morin.
