Now we fight!

Back upstairs! All this running up and down is good exercise, which you'll need for wrestling with the tough sounds of Moncton's Kamalas. Like their fellows in Fear of Lipstick they made a 13-hour drive from their hometown and made a (long) weekend of it.

I admire T-Ray's dedication to short shorts.



And here's Elle Shapiro and Jessup!



Elle sings!



T-Ray frets!



Rhythm section action!



Salty mans the traps; Like Elle, he was inherited from The Damnsels.



More Elle!



And more Jessup!



T-Ray bends!



Blurry faceoff action!



The whole lot!



Gripping action!



There was also a Pinhead Gunpowder cover in there somewhere.

• Show reminder: Animal Faces, Mountanaka and We Fled Cairo demolish the Avant-Garde Bar with volume; there's a bunch of outdoor action, with The Band Whose Name is a Symbol performing by the National Gallery of Canada between 6-8 p.m. and The White Wires playing Canal Fest at Confederation Park at 8:30 p.m.; The Elmdale hosts The Stellar Radio Choir, Stories Underground and Mobina Galore.
