MPR has a live session from Tapes N' Tapes which they performed for the station on July 21, 2006. The band open for The Futureheads at the Phoenix in Toronto tonight.

Hence, I've changed my mind about going to the show tonight but I hope everyone has a great time.

Chromewaves informs that UK's The Beautiful South will be in Toronto for a show at the Phoenix on November 1st. I think I want to go to this just for the chance that they might perform at least one Housemartins song.
