Behind closed doors

Garaga played the penultimate set of the Gaga Weekend matinee ... unfortunately previous noiseniks had drawn the attention of Ottawa's bylaw enforcement officers, forcing the event to close the door to the garage and denying the Meatlocker's neighbours the chance to hear crunchy Black Sabbath-loving rock goonery. The question is, is the Meatlocker's garage door a Garaga brand door?

They opened it between songs.



Jeff sings!



Jeff sings some more! (And breaks a string.)



Colin rocks the low end.



Shadowy Shawn action!



More Colin!



Tim mans the traps.



More Shawn!



Jeff rocks the Telecaster. And is not happy about it. "It's a girl's guitar."



Colin bends!



Faceoff action!



More bending!



Their next gig was at Bluesfest ... who knows when I'm going to get around to posting that.
