Event Description

"… a brilliant show by Vancouver's Circus In Flames…like some Dirty '30's skiffle band that wandered off the docks of their home-town's Lower East Side, the band created a feel not unlike sitting on an old movie set in an ancient New York restaurant or coffeehouse…it was too cool…one glorious sound …Andrew strummed away, looking like a raggedy hobo who might have just stumbled off a boxcar while he conducted the others…(he) has a way with language and a way of wrapping his stories around a simple rhythm that should shuffle him off into the Canadian musical songwriting hierarchy…he can thread a tale that sticks to the listener, enlightening that dark spot in the mind…" -Warren Footz -SEE Magazine (Edmonton) Oct/98
