My Interests

I'd like to meet:

You at Toronto's MONSTER RECORDS!

The SIXTH annual Toronto Thin Lizzy Celebration
has come and gone... July 21st, 2007!

Watch this space!

As those of you who made it out to this year's Toronto Lizzy Celebration know, we worked our butts off to put together a great filmed performance of "Do Anything You Want To" and "Genocide" by our good friend Danko Jones (who was in L.A. at the time recording the band's new album at the Foo Fighters' studio) with kick-ass TLC faves, the McBrides. The vid was premiered on the night of the show and the audience response was truly overwhelming... Thank you all again for making these nights so special.Well, now we are very proud to be able to share this footage with you again thanks to the magic of YouTube! The songs are embedded right here!

Do Anything You Want To
