Rock around the clock

Back to Mugshots Friday night for more tunes. Craig from Bruised Tongue is DJing on Fridays for August (the evening is dubbed Funhouse) and there's bands as well. Babysitter from Victoria came by and Ottawa's own Voicemail also rocked the yard.

Babysitter are 1970s-fixated grunge fans with a love of distortion and shouty vocals (there tape stuff makes me think of Dinosaur Jr.) and generally make a splendid racket.

Hairy action!

Voicemail finished things off; they've been busy this year and an album is apparently in the works for 2014.

There was also a cover of Mabel's I Am A Hot Dog in there somewhere, along with a lot of bad jail and doughnut puns.

That was fun.
