Rum show

Back we go to Raw Sugar for the final band of the night, Slow Down, Molasses. Because were else would a band of that name play? They have a new album, Walk Into The Sea, which offers a shoe-gaze-influenced twist on the ever popular Canadian rock collective format (they've actually been dubbed "The Broken Social Scene of the Prairies" by Exclaim!). I confess to being totally unsurprised it was mixed by one of the folks from Ohbijou.

And they have a cellist, Paterson Hodgson, who can also be seen in Olenka and the Autumn Lovers.



Tyson McShane makes his triumphant return to the stage.



Singalong action!



Ryan Drabble was also back on drums; Patrick Schmidt plays guitar and sings some.



Chris Morin rejoined to play bass for this tour.



Jeans boots handles the keys.



Much singing along!



Patrick sings!



The whole lot!



Paterson breaks out the tambourine.



More Tyson, Jeans 'n' Chris!



The end!



A good way to end the night, but my fuzz-lovin' heart really belongs to Jeans Boots' opening set ...

• Show reminder: After The Fall, Brixton Robbers, Nummies, Gusto Fiasco and Rawrawriot play Cafe Dekcuf; Alex Maltby will be playing some electric guitar at the Avant-Garde Bar. There will also be some kind of theatrical presentation by Danger Project - all this prior to the Richard Page Quartet's regular 9 p.m. set.
