Prom Night At Hater High
Just saw this and since it’s a limited-time thing, figured it’d be best to get it out there ASAP. Free Long Winters show next week! If you saw them at the ElMo last month you know it’ll be a great show. Full details below, taken from the band’s MySpace blog:
Hello Toronto – FREE SHOW Thursday, May 3rd
**This Monster Truck-style post brought to you by Beautiful Noise**
COME SEE THE LONG WINTERS IN A CHURCH IN TORONTO!
THAT’S RIGHT!!!!
Like ‘Sessions on West 54th’, Beautiful Noise aims to be the music series people will be collecting years from now. The Long Winters will be taping an episode on May 3rd.
Produced for RAVE HD in the US, this is a Canadian production shot at Toronto’s Berkeley Church in front of a live studio audience featuring some of today’s leading musical acts.
The show’s producers have about 200 free tickets to this performance.
The Berkeley Church, 315 Queen Street East
(One block west of Parliament at the corner of Berkeley and Queen.)
Doors open at 7:30 pm and seats are first-come, first-served. Beer and water will be for sale at the bar.
For tickets, send an email with your name to audience100@gmail.com. The subject line of the email must say “THE LONG WINTERS”
Here are the rules for the taping:
— No small children (too many dangerous obstacles)
— No cameras or recording devices of any type
— No obvious brand names or logos on hats or shirts
— Agreement by entering venue to appear in broadcast / please stay home if you don’t want to appear on TV!
And while you’re at it, check out these interviews with John Roderick at The Statesman-Journal and The Yakima Herald.

Thierry says:Thanks for the heads up – between this and the Daniel Johnston appearance on MTV Live on the 7th, it looks like it’s going to be a good week for free music!

IkeTurnerEatsStars says:This is great and everything, but for someone like myself who doesn’t know every single band in the world, it would be kind of cool if you could give a couple of readers your take on their music. Don’t think I’m being an ass or knocking your site or any of that nonsense.
