The rain was getting a bit heavy at the Ottawa Explosion on Saturday, so despite some heroic mopping by Pierre Richardson things headed to the drier environs of Club SAW for the show by Feral Trash.
As mentioned earlier, two-thirds of Thalidomy Kids is also two-thirds of Feral Trash, albeit reconfigured.

The other third is Fear of Lipstick's Eric Neurotic.

I believe The Kidnappers were the first band to cross an ocean to get to the Ottawa Explosion; they came all the way from Hamburg. The DeeCracks from Klagenfurt, Austria might beat them for miles, though.

Ian Manhire of Voicemail/White Wires was sitting in on drums.

Things were a bit less wet outside, so it was off to catch The Sonic Avenues; they have a new bassist.

Then it was back inside for The Tough Shits from Philadelphia. They were down a couple of members and sounded pretty wiry.

Raoul from Hollywood was sitting in for their missing drummer. Of the bassist, there was no sign.

New York's Vacation played a really tough-sounding set of tensile punk rock.

There was some more straight-ahead rocking from Brooklyn's Nude Beach.
