It's been a little over a month since John O'Keefe was killed outside the Brass Rail, walking to the subway from the Duke of Gloucester. While the makeshift memorial outside the Rail is gone now, the man it was for is far from forgotten––by friends, family, or city. Many of the stories about O'Keefe have told of a dedicated, loving father; indeed, the reason why he left the Duke of Gloucester early––a friend wanted him......

It almost felt like there were four shows going on last night at the sold-out Amy Winehouse concert at The Mod Club. The first of which, chronologically speaking, was the fabulous Patrick Wolf, who kicked off the evening. Wolf skipped, stomped, and strutted his stuff around stage in a way that would make Mick Jagger proud. Decked out in sequined suspenders and a plaid bolo tie, he performed songs such as "Overture" and the......

When people first hear the words "Professional Pillow Fight League," they often conjure images of jello-wrestling and hair pulling. However, if you've ever been to a Pillow Fight League event, you know that the fights are real, they're violent, and they're bloody entertaining. The Pillow Fight League, also known as the PFL, has been performing around Toronto since last year. They gained international attention in January when they fought for two nights in New York......

We can't quite put away our coverage of CMW without letting you in on some great music that went on Saturday night. Thousands of people milled about town on the busiest night of the festival, and that made it even more difficult to decide which bands to go see. People lined up around the block for the city's hottest events, such as the songwriter's showcase starring Bedouin Soundclash and Jim Cuddy at The Mod......

This fall is shaping up to be a busy one, as everyone and their dog seems to be touring right now. If you haven't spent all of your OSAP money yet, might want to stash away a few pennies for some concert tix. However, if you've already blown your student loan on cheap beer and (even cheaper) Ikea furniture, take comfort in the fact that you can visit your local public library to catch......

He pretty much invented the mash up phenomenon with his Hollertronix partner Low Budget. His live sets bride gaps from Brazilian Baile Funk to almost forgotten 80's classics to Southern Crunk. Dance floors swerve, careen and generaly go buck wild when he's in control of the decks. He's known as Diplo to most and Wes to his mom Ms. Pentz. He's performing at The Mod Club tonight for $15 and he's gonna make it......

Performing tonight at The MOD Club is Australia’s gorgeously enchanted, lushly tuned Sia - full name, Sia Furler. Her name may not be familiar to most but her incredible vocals undoubtedly will. She’s earned much recognition from singing backing vocals on a few Zero 7 tracks a couple years back and more recently Torontoist’s favourite HBO series, Six Feet Under used her song Breathe Me in the very final scene of the series closer.......

Bar none, the most anticipated show of the coming week, at least to this Torontoist-er, is the return of eternally youthful Scotsmen Teenage Fanclub to Hogtown on Monday night for a show at the Mod Club. Anyone who was at their last show at the Opera House four years ago knows what a treat they were - you'll not hear more note-perfect harmonies anywhere, guaranteed. They're touring in support of Man-Made, their first album since......

The Mod Club is saying goodbye to the Lava Lounge, and moving a few paces south to Kensington Market's Supermarket. What does this mean in the grand scheme of things? Well, zilch. But it's important to keep track of hipster migration patterns, friends. Now, if you see an exodus of tightly-panted, mopily-countenanced persons heading easterly on College, you won't be alarmed. Though you should be. Torontoist has been pining for a good dance night for......
