Re: Prospera Place, Kelowna BC - Oct. 16, 2016

Last night's show in Kelowna was pretty amazing. Sadly it's been 14 years since I last saw the band (living overseas will do that to a Canuck) which seems weird after I obsessively followed them around the country from 1996 through 2002. Seeing the boys again brought back lots of memories. I didn't ...

Re: General OLP News

I got my presale tickets for Kelowna this morning! Did anyone else notice that the bands are selling 'VIP experiences' (i.e. pre-show meet&greet/acoustic session) for $250/ticket?? Wowsers! Remember the good ol' days when that was just part of an extremely inexpensive fan club membership??

Re: FULL Left Pencey album on AI.com!!

I don't check this site nearly enough so I'm sorry for taking so long to respond to this... but I can definitely hook you up with some left Pencey tunes. It's always exciting to meet other fans of Brad's work! Shoot me an e-mail at allisonlbrown [at] gmail dot com.

Prospera Place, Kelowna BC - Oct. 16, 2016

I'm back in Canada and just got tickets to my first OLP show in more than 10 years! This OLPxIME tour feels like a great opportunity to get some CC/CM meet-ups happening. Is anyone else on this board going to the Kelowna gig??

Re: Raine throws us a Curve... a tour maybe?

Wow! Great idea A2K. I first heard Trapeze live in Winnipeg in 1995 and it was the song that got me hooked on OLP. And I mean hooked. I haven't posted here in ages, but I'm excited about the possibility of being able to attend some of the Naveed anniversary tour shows when I'm back in Canada. I'm ...

Oceanship

It's been a while since I pimped Oceanship. Here's the lowdown:

Brad Lyons, former lead singer of Burlington-based alt rockers left Pencey , decided to pursue a new musical direction after the band called it quits in 2003. He teamed up with a piano player and released a debut EP under the Oceanship ...

Re: Australia. Please?

Yay! I never thought I'd meeting anyone else from Perth who knows who OLP is. I have been doing my best to spread the OLP love across Australia but it's tough when they don't tour here. Maybe if we combine efforts... :D

Australia. Please?

I think an OLP tour of Australia is long overdue. I have seen so many great Canadian acts since moving here: Neil Young, Hawksley Workman, Moneen, Hey Rosetta, Alexisonfire, Cancer Bats, City and Colour, Attack in Black, Billy Talent, Tegan & Sara, The Flatliners... Everyone else is doing it! And ...

Re: New Album in 2012 - "Curve" April 3rd

So apparently I haven't logged into this place in 4 years. Crazy, right? But this new album has me very excited. So I'm back and have so much to catch up on!

LANDO! Yes my friend, it has been a LONG time. After years of living life Little Richard style, I'm back! It's good to see you're still here. It's like a big happy non-stop reunion!

Wow, the CD got to you crazy fast! That's great. The band self-financed the CD and handmade the album cover, so they opted not to have cases as a cost-saver. I hope you like it!

Just so ya know...

You can download two of Oceanship's songs on their MySpace page and hear the whole album (minus the hidden track!) on oceanshipmusic.com. The EP is only $10 CA for Canadian residents and $13 US if you live outside of Canada. It's a steal!

You guys rule. :D

Awesome choice. ALS will do so well for OLP. It's the best song on the album.
