Radio Radio

Tonight, I had been invited to see Radio Radio by one of my teammates from Captain Pony's Rainbow Squad: Anna. I was surprised when I got the email from Anna, but then remembered a conversation from a while back, where she had told me that she really liked the band and had seen them once before. I was also a bit surprised as they are from out east, they have a different style from most Maratime groups, as they are an Acadian Rap group.

Radio Radio has a good following in Ottawa. Tonight's show was very intimate, it had about 140 people at a small bar on UOttawa's campus. The show was prepared in conjunction with "La Semaine de la Francophonie." On a surprising note, the group also told us they had just come in from France, and even though they were a bit jet lagged, they felt great as the crowd had a lot of energy and they enjoyed the show. I also recorded a few videos, live songs that I will add later on, as I want to get this up tonight before going to bed. I might just have to add them to YouTube and embed them to this post. If you've haven't heard of Radio Radio, please check out their website (myspace site) and give them a chance. You'll be introduced to a whole new culture of music and expression. Something truly original and unique! On that note, they will be back in Ottawa on April 1st at Barrymores, check them out!







After the show, we went to a house party and met with a few other of the Ponies and I'll only add this photo as it show's one of the Pony's at his best! Way to go Dave!

and another photo to demonstrate the festivities:
