avadence and guilty:D

On Thursday night, I went down to the Underground to see two amazing bands. The first band I saw that night is called Futures Past. Futures Past is a rock band from Toronto. I have never seen them before. I heard from lots of people that they are a great band and I should listen to them. I totally agree. Singer Ricky Gupta had an insane voice. I really loved listening to him, his voice is really unique. The band had really great chemistry onstage. They all connected in a really cool way that made you want to just stand there and watch them intently. The guitar rifts that Jason Hoeg and Quinn Danielis were pulling off were really impressive. They all had stage presence that pulled you into the music. They played an amazing set! I'm so glad I saw it.

The next band I saw was Avadence. You might have remembered them from my post on the 40 Sons and Daughters show when I first saw them. When I saw them that day, I was like... wow.  When I saw them Thursday I was so excited for them to get on the stage. When they did my friends and I jumped around laughing. Avadence has very energetic music that makes you want to jump around. Bassist Victor Martisius is the most energetic crazy bassist I've seen. Jumping around the stage, swinging his guitar around. It was great to watch. Victor also gave me a shoutout for my awesome review:) That was pretty cool. Guitarist Mike Dojsack was repping a Lifestory Monolgue shirt, which proves he has amazing taste in music! All of these guys are expert musicians. Avadence, the next big thing! Watch out!!

The headlining band is Guilty. I'm sure you have all heard of them. If not from shows, but from my various blogs. Guilty is a band that never stays the same. They keep building on the skills they already had from show to show. Thursday night, they played two new songs. Apparently they are nameless, but they were fantastic. Hearing them made me so excited for the new record. It should be out sometime in early 2008. Brad Vanderwoerd wowed me once again just like he does every show. They played my favourite songs, Departure and Six Feet Underwater. Guilty has a pack of loyal fans that will support them all the time. When they get big I can say... yeah I knew them:) Adrian Kenderic is a bass playing machine. I was watching his fingers move up and down the guitar. It seems impossible to move your fingers that fast, but not for Adrian. Great show guys.Can't wait for the next one!
