Under Seige February 14, 2008


It's been a little hard to get to the headquarters of the Royal City Music Project located at the end of Leigh Rd. next to the Spencer Overpass Project due to the RCMP barracade surrounding the area. That's right, if you've been watching the news, local or national, we're one of the lucky ones behind the lines. Todays picture is taken from our office and you can see the police mobile command centre in the background. Lucky for us, Tony "Thunderfoot" Melizza got through and dropped off some new audio tracks he recorded a few years back with his group Tony Trip.

Just because everyone had such a blast at last years Hall Of Fame induction, "Lightning" Len Siemens and Ernie Neiderer have taken it upon themselves to organize a "HOF Night Out" on Saturday April 5. That's right, no pomp and circumstance, just a fun evening with music and old friends. Cruel Shoes Rockin Blues Band will be our host(s) with the "Who's Who" of local music legends making appearances throughout the night. There will be door prizes, a silent auction and more fun than we should be allowed. If you've been inducted into the HOF, you and a guest are absolutely FREE. If not, it's the best $10. a head you'll ever spend this year. In fact, why not call up your old band mates and get a table together. Order your tickets today by e mailing [email protected] with the heading "Tickets". Proceeds from this event benefit "Victoria's Rock & Roll, Music Hall Of Fame".
