Here's a little look-in to our show last night at the el Mocambo in Toronto. A lot of fun, to put it mildly. You can expect to see the record within the next month or so.
A quick note to let everyone know that tickets are almost gone for the show on May 15th. Send a note today to band manager, PC Jack Wield to get yours now.
The grade one Toronto Police Pipe Band will be presenting a May 15, 2010 concert at Toronto’s iconic El Mocambo, 464 Spadina Avenue, Toronto. The Saturday night concert is slated to begin at 8:00 pm at what is one of Toronto’s most famous club concert venues. The historic “El Mo”, as its known in Toronto, first opened as a music venue in 1850 while serving a dual purpose as a haven for escaped slaves from the U.S.
Elvis Costello’s “Live at the El Mocambo” and the Rolling Stones’ “Love You Live” records are two of the most famous albums to be recorded off the floor of the “El Mo”. The Toronto Police Pipe Band will be recording their current material for release as a “live” record. Audience capacity at the El Mocambo is limited. Tickets are $20.
The band capped off their much-anticipated self-funded trip to Festival Interceltique Lorient (FIL) Saturday, August 8, with a victory in the Lorient pipe band championships.
