Isn't that special

Special Noise finished the night off. They are indeed noisy and special, not to mention significantly further off the beaten path than either Cousins or Get A Life Losers. Thus, they were banished to the basement, presumably to avoid waking the neighbours.

Here's the outside on Kent St., with everything quiet and undisturbed.



But down in the basement, evil is afoot! Or at least Special Noise's somewhat abrasive sounds. JS and GN make up Special Noise - Jeff Simmons and Greg Napier, if you want the extended version.



Not many folks rock an SX.



Andy from Cousins was providing extra percussion for this show.



The inconvenient post is an Ottawa musical tradition.



Andy from over the cymbal.



JS sings!



Double drumming action!



Can you tell there was a blue light?



Blue Greg action!



The crowd goes wild! Which in Ottawa means it stands around with its arms crossed.



Tapping action!



Jeff has also visited town recently with his other band, Play Guitar.

• Show reminder: Protest The Hero, Abandon All Ships, Kingdoms, Today I Caught The Plague play Babylon; James and Blackburn, The Breakup Letter and Bloomistry perform at Zaphod's. One and Keyotone are at the Rainbow.
