KEYS N KRATES shuffle it up in Toronto Canada. Hundreds huddle in to see the event












So I'm just thinking that it was kinda cool, actually.. really dope to party with the Shufflers for the first time last night in our home town of Toronto Canada. To see them all huddle into Revival's corridors to find out what we were about. We showed them why we love music and playing together. They showed us why they love going to Shuffle to PARTY. Everyone coming together to celebrate and hear good music.

Stay tuned for clips of the show online from us and also from some of our fans with our "Drunken fan footage" By the way extra kudose to Adam Tune on the drums. I wonder if anyone knew that Tune's amazing solo jam at the end of the night was performed even though he's recovering from water sickness? He just got back from recording in cuba last week. This man loves his drums yes he does.

Personally though my favourite part of the night was watching Jr.Flo across the stage do his signature dance behind the turntables that only Flo can do HAHA

GOTTA TAKE A MOMENT



So on the 45th anniversary of Martin Luther Kings " I have a dream" speech. Barack Obama delivered a historic speech of his own.
He also became the first ever african american to accept the presidential nomination of a political party.
I still can't believe I am around for this. I could not leave my seat the whole night! History made. Nuff said.

I HATE AIR CANADA





I hate em. I do and a lot of people feel the same way as me. You're obviously scratching your head and tilting it slighty to the side wondering why. Well, in a nutshell.
We paid them extra to take our music gear. They lost our gear on the way up. Lost our gear on the way back. Lied to us about where are gear was... made us miss our rehearsal because we had no gear. We had to then go re rent and pay for new gear just to do our show. To top it off, they told us we had to actually write in and wait 30 days before Air Canada "might " decide to respond and refund us our money for losing our first gear! So yes some of you might have more tragic stories, but I don't care. This is our Air Canada story and I never ever want to have to write about another one. I hate em.
