Video of Runaway Slide - Voodoo Child (cover)

Hi,

Here is a video of one of the songs we played at the 2009 Le festival Trois-Rivières en Blues. It's one of our favorite Jimi Hendrix covers that we play. We hope you enjoy it.

Runaway Slide at LMAC with the Basement Superheroes



We opened another show for the Basement Superheroes. This time it was at Laurier Macdonald High School. We were happy with the way the students of LMAC welcomed us . We played a set of only our songs and the student reaction was very good.


Thanks once again to the Can Your School Rock organisation for giving us this opportunity. Check out the Basement Superheroes at www.myspace.com/basementsuperheroes.

Runaway Slide and the Basement Superheroes Show


This show took place at Laval Liberty High School. We love it when we get the chance to perform but playing at a high school is very different then playing in clubs or festival stages. Since the fans are our age there is a certain energy in the air that's hard to explain.

This show was the first of many promotional shows for the Basement Superheroes. We were very happy to have been asked to open the show. We were a little nervous at first since our music is very different than that of the Basement Superheroes. But the fans made us feel right at home. They loved all of our tunes whether they were hard rock or bluesy :D




This show was sort of the kick-off to the Can Your School Rock Season 2 competition. The hosts of the competition interviewed the bands just like they've done in the competition last season. As a matter of fact, the stage, lights and camera crew were in preparation for the start of the competition scheduled for the 6th and 7th of February.




A special thank-you to all the new fans that we met after the show. We're sorry that we don't have a picture of all of you who came and say hi. Believe it when we say that we really appreciate you taking the time to come to talk to us. We hope to see you all at our future shows.




The Basement Superheroes performed a 10 song set that included some of their new songs. Max, Alex and Shawn are a talented pop rock trio with an interesting sound. Check them out at www.myspace.com/basementsuperheroes.

Thanks to Sandro Mauro and the Can Your School Rock organisation for giving us this opportunity to open for the Basement Superheroes.
