back to news
Wow, the shows continue to fall into my lap. This time we'll be opening for Transylvanian Polka and The Sheds (from Nanaimo) on Saturday January 8, 2005 upstairs at the Waldorf 1489 E. Hastings, Vancouver BC. I think the doors open at 9pm. I'm a bit unclear as to whether the cover is $7 or $5... er, come on down to find out! Be forewarned though, Trevor has been threatening to leave his clothes on this time, so there's no telling what he might do to try to make up for the lack of semi-nudity.
Speaking of which, the Only Magazine benefit was pretty cool in spite of Trev's failed attempts at audience participation (and this was before he took his shirt off. (and why does everyone make such a big deal about me taking my shirt off anyway? I don't get it))....
General concensus seems to be that this was the most energetic performance we've done yet. So here's what we played:
Twisted Sunshine, That Water
Fountain Spoke To Me,
This Would Be Such A Beautiful Place To Die,
Come See The Dead Body I Found In The Woods,
JAC, Moving Backwards, Abrasive Candy, Brisk-Pace Shattering*
(*basically Slow-Motion S/Chattering sped up to 180 BPM.
I wanted to do Breakneck-Speed Shattering at 240 BPM, but Shannon and Wayde
somehow managed to talk some sense into me.)
Surprise, surprise, once again my attempts to record a show at Pat's Pub failed
completely... :-/
The Rain and the Sidewalk will be performing at a benefit show for Only Magazine at Pat's Pub (403 East Hastings Street, Vancouver BC) on Saturday Dec 4 with Sparrow and The Regional Hats. $5 cover.
Well, the first couple of weeks of November were pretty cool.
Wayde's book launch thingy went very nicely.
Not only did The Rain and the Sidewalk contribute to the one-man-band article in the November issue of Discorder, but there was also an interview with me and Wayde in the November 4-10 issue of Terminal City.
(Keep an eye out for a Press page on the main TRATS site sometime soon)
And the show at the Butchershop was pretty cool too. Managed to get a bit of audience participation this time around (I suppose I should be a bit concerned about how eager some of my friends are to swat me with old newpapers, but I'm not), and gave away some CDs for hugs. (Though I think the highlight was when I was lying on the floor at the end of Comedy Sketch and some guy jumps on me and give me a hug while his girlfriend kissed me on the forehead...)
So, here's yet another setlist:
Digital*, Lifeless, Wake Me When It's Over, Hollow, Playground for Your Thoughts,
JAC**, In a Moment of Weakness, Comedy Sketch / Slow-Motion S/Chattering
*That's right, we opened with a Joy Division cover. Now, don't tell me you're surprised...
(Sometimes that song appeals to the scarier side of me)
**A Collapsing Opposites cover! (Ryan looked really embarrassed)
One-man-band Showcase at the Butchershop Gallery, and Wayde's Performance Bond book release
So it looks like The Rain and the Sidewalk will be performing at the Butchershop Gallery at Main and 26th (195 26th) on Friday November 5 with Mark of the Beats, Man Meets Bear and Collapsing Opposites. Cover is $6. Doors open at 8. (show over by midnight). If all goes well, this show should coincide with an article in the November issue of Discorder about the local weirdo one-man-band scene (or whatever you want to call it).
Many thanks to Ryan of Collapsing Opposites fame for organizing the show and pitching the article idea to Discorder.
Meanwhile, the Vancouver launch for Wayde Compton's new book Performance Bond (published by Arsenal Press) will be at The Lamplighter on Wednesday November 10th. The Contact Zone Crew will spin 'lit-hop on four turntables, followed by individual DJ sets by Wayde and Jason'. The book comes with a CD featuring The Reinventing Wheel: Ouroboros Mix which Trevor created some hip-hop beats for... (Didn't see that coming did you? :-)
We did manage to play both 'Alternative Mondays' shows with Tonechaser at the Fairview, and it was a lot of fun.
Thanks to everyone who did make it out to at least one of the shows (I know it can be a bit much to go to shows on Mondays).
Many thanks to Angel Starr (for letting us perform) and Dave Musil (for letting us borrow his bass amp on both nights,
as well as making a recording of the first show for us).
On the first night we (or should that be I?) tried covering The Organ's It's Time To Go once again...
(Unfortunately, I think I did a better job of it the first time at Pat's Pub... It was a bit rushed and sloppy this time...)
At the second show, Angel and Dave of Tonechaser did a cover version of The Rain and the Sidewalk's Moving Backwards
during a short duo set... As far I know, this is the first time anyone has done a TRATS cover... That's just too sweet...!
(More setlists... - Aug. 30th - Misguided Dream, Hallucination, Twisted Sunshine,
That Water Fountain Spoke To Me, Monster, In A Moment of Weakness,
Abrasive Candy/Return To The Ether Landscapes/A Solitary Soul,
Wake Me When It's Over/It's Time To Go, Tonight We Are Standing on the Edge of the World.
Sept. 6 - 'The Rain and the Sidewalk live at the Fairview' Theme, Hallucination, Inane Pining, Repulsive Pining, Monster, Twisted Sunshine, Failures, Moving Backwards, Abrasive Candy/Return to the Ether Landscapes/Tonight We Are Standing on the Edge of the World.)
Meanwhile, TRATS vocalist Shannon Hallett's new band Betty Kracker (they describe their sound as 'Grrr-age Punka-ballistic')
will be performing at the Fairview (898 W. Broadway) on Monday Sep 27 with Obsidian Cream and The Twitch.
And thanks to The Doers for mentioning me in their interview in the Terminal City a while back... I'm still getting a good laugh out of that :-D
The site is back up!
We had some hosting turmoil, but everything is back to normal.
So then, now, The Rain and the Sidewalk will be opening for Tonechaser
at the Fairview Pub (898 W. Broadway)
on Monday August 30
(and MAYBE
on Monday Sept 6 as well - depending on if the Fairview is still doing
"Alternative Mondays" by then)
Doors will likely be at 9 or so...
Sounds like it might be a pretty cheap cover charge as well (maybe as
low as $3...??) so I hope to see ya there!
Many thanks to Melanie & Trail vs Russia and Chris-A-Riffic & The Human Hi-lite Reel for letting TRATS open for them at Pat's Pub on July 16th...
It was an honor to be on the bill with two such awesome bands.
Our set seemed to go pretty well, with Wayde Compton adding a bit of keyboard/bass and Shannon Hallett adding a bit of her lovely singing. At the end of our set, Wake Me When It's Over suddenly mutated into a cover of It's Time To Go by The Organ (this was the first time
TRATS has done a cover song live)... (Luckily Ashley seemed strangely ok with my stripped down rendition)
One major disappointment though, once again my attempt at getting a soundboard recording failed completely...
(TRATS's setlist: Suicide Note (section), It's All Falling Apart, Harmless, Idiot (the Self-Loathing Song),
Slow-Motion Shattering, Failures, Wake Me When It's Over / It's Time To Go*
*cover song by the Organ)
And kudos to all the organizers and bands participating in the following night's Facefest 2004 at the Railway Club... 21 bands indeed played on two stages, and everything went amazingly smoothly...! Didn't bother trying to make a soundboard recording, but turns out there is an ambient/microphone recording (ie at least as much audience sound as the songs themselves :-)
which you know I'll subject you to one of these days...
We did a mostly different set than the night before with Wayde and Shannon adding their talents again (which makes me wonder if The Rain and the Sidewalk is a solo act with a couple of very regular guests, or a band led by a megalomaniac... hmmm...)
And Shannon's new band Betty Kracker made a powerful debut there as well...
(so that's like 3 shows with 2 bands in 2 nights... wow! how does she do it?)
(TRATS's setlist: That Water Fountain Spoke to Me, Inane Pining, Comedy Sketch / Slow-Motion S/Chattering, Lifeless)
and that same weekend I somehow wound up in the Justify Yourself column in the Terminal City...
(don't worry, you didn't really miss much, there isn't any justification for me :-)
july
Two shows coming up in July!
(Note: Apparently New Years Resolution won't be able to make it to the Pat's Pub show on July 16th due to their keyboard player recovering from recent surgery, so it sounds like Trail vs. Russia will be filling in for them instead.)On Friday July 16th, The Rain and the Sidewalk will be performing at Pat's Pub (403 East Hastings Street, Vancouver BC), opening for New Years Resolution and The Human Hi-Lite Reel... I'm not sure whether NYR or HHR is headlining, but I know we're on first, so since Pat's Pub closes early, I'm assuming we'll be starting at around 9PM. Not sure what the cover $ will be yet, probably not much. I'll update this when I get more info...
And if that's not enough, the following night (Satuday, July 17) TRATS will be performing at this year's Facefest at the Railway Club (579 Dunsmuir St Vancouver BC) along with about 20 other bands...! Last I heard we're scheduled to play in the smoking room at around 11:15, but this might very well change... (And occassional TRATS guest vocalist Shannon Hallett will be unleashing her new band Betty Kracker at the main stage at 9:30 ? or so)
From the press release thingy:
FACEFEST 2004 at The Railway Club, Saturday, July 17th
For our 12th anniversary celebratory fundraiser for the practice space FacePlant (east end Vancouver), we have an unprecedented twenty-one bands/solo artists performing between two rooms in one venue. Yes, we're taking over the Railway Club Smoking Room as well!
In addition to a couple of 'debuts' (ie. Slowpoke, Uber Sissy, Betty Kracker), FaceFest will as usual feature an eclectic selection of some of Vancouver's very finest established musical talent. Each set will be approximately fifteen minutes in length (a bit longer on the Small Stage). Shared equipment, diligent emcees and immaculate stage management (!) should make it indeed possible for this number of acts to 'fit' between the Start time of 8:00 PM and last call! Actually, we figure it will be all over by 3:00AM. Hey, we've been doing this sort of thing annually for eight years, now! Come see how it's done, and join in the fun.
Show Starts 8:00PM sharp!
On the Main Stage in this order (subject to change):
Wet Exit - rock
Pax - alt rock
Reverberators Remix - experimental instro-surf/rock
Betty Kracker - grrr-radge four-way
The Hunter Cometh - heavy rock
Vancourtland Rangers - mod revival
Emergency - punk rock
Filthy Rocket - punk rock
Salmon Arm - art-rock
Seventh Image - synthetic analogue bombast
Motorama - rhythm, volume and intensity
Walkerband - swaggering punk rock
Bughouse Five - most entertaining rockabilly band around
Uber Sissy - heavy
Starting at 9:00PM on the Small Stage (Smoking Room):
Huskee Dudes - sounds like...only acoustic
Richard Fordham - the one and obscure
Azul Salvaje - electro-organic folktronica
al contraire - folk punk (punk folk?)
Evan Symons - the one and only
The Rain and The Sidewalk - moody semi-electronic post-post-punk art-pop
Slowpoke - slow punk
Tickets are $10.00 at the door for general public, $8 for Railway Club members.

Unfortunately we only had enough time at the Music Waste show back in May to do three songs... But it turned out to be an interesting experience nonetheless. Started off with Wayde singing Adjust the Dial on the Windowsill, then did a version of Hallucination with Shannon singing and surprise guest* Meghan Engel on electric violin...(*It was a surprise to me as well... She introduced herself to Wayde and me in the Cafe Deux Soleils a few hours before we were scheduled to perform, looking for someone to jam with... I figured my luck has been really good recently, and as it turned out, it actually worked out quite nicely... Impressive...) Was then informed that we only had enough time for one more, so we did Wake Me When It's Over with Wayde on bass, Meghan on violin,and Shannon on vocals for the first half, and I took over the last half... (So much for a night of solo and duo acts ;-)
The Rain and the Sidewalk will be performing at Cafe Deux Soleils (2096 Commercial Vancouver BC) on Friday May 21st as part of this year's Music Waste...
Also on the bill are The littlest homie, The Wiggler, Mark of the Beats, Gordan B. Isnor and Idiots. (I don't know anything about any of them other than they're all apparently odd solo or duo acts)
And if you missed the show in April, that's too bad because TRATS is planning on doing a completely different set. Bwahahaha!
The show with Man Meets Bear and Collapsing Opposites at Pat's Pub back in April was a lot of fun. Instead of 3 sets, people got one 2 hour long set that started off as Man Meets Bear then mutated into Collapsing Opposites then mutated into the Rain and the Sidewalk... (Not only did I get to play a bit of bass guitar for MMB and CO, but I also had Soren (MMB) play some guitar/melodica/keyboard and Ryan (CO) play some guitar/keyboard/sax on a couple of my songs... Meanwhile Wayde Compton guested on turntables and backing vocals for TWASOTEOTW, and Shannon Hallett was the mysterious vocalist on Slow-Motion Shattering...! (I suggested there'd be surprises, didn't I?) This show was also reviewed in the May issue of Discorder)...
(TRATS's set: The Evil One, Tonight We Are Standing On The Edge of the World, Harmless, Moving Backwards, Repulsive Pining, Monster, Comedy Sketch, Slow-Motion Shattering.)
And yes, the last time I checked (May 12) the main TRATS site is down. We're working on it. (Might be up by now for all I know...)
April
23, 2004: New mix posted
Just posted a new mix of the song Twisted

????I have also removed a song or two from the music page.
April

The
Rain and the Sidewalk
will play
Friday,
April 23

(at the Patricia Hotel)
with
Collapsing

Who knows what surprises may be in store this time...
Various News...
Many thanks to My!Gay!Husband! and everyone behind the Trash Palace
show on January 30th.
That was the first time I had people standing in front of the stage... a couple
of lucky people got free CDs of bonus non-album type tracks... (e.g.,
the MP3s you'll find here and
there.
Might start doing that on a regular basis... (If I ever get another show...any
bands/promoters/show-booking-types out there? ;-)
Managed to play a completely different set than on the 17th too... Thanks
to John
Cow for his kind words again. And of course Elizabeth
kicked my ass... again.
(TRATS's set: Failures, I Came Across No One On My Journey, Hollow,
That Water Fountain Spoke To Me,
Abrasive Candy, Return To The Ether Landscapes, Slow-Motion S/Chattering)
Will likely post some more live mp3s on the Auxiliary
site sometime soon.
(Keep in mind, we've got a limited amount of space there, so this means the
MP3s that are currently there will have to be taken down to make room... So
if you haven't already, you should probably download
those songs now while you still can...)
Another thing... I'll have a gallery up soon now that I have some live pix... Stay tuned.
Next Show @ The Pic January 30th...
Well,
the show at the Pic on the 17th was lots of fun.
Many thanks to John Cow and all the great people from Terminal
City Magazine for putting the show on. I would have been there even
if I wasn't performing because I love the delightfully odd brass stylings of
They Shoot Horses, Don't They. And then there was the deadpan art-damaged
dancing gorilla antics of GangBang who seem to swap instruments more
every time I see them...
(TRATS's set: Suicide Note (section), Harmless, Church Window (I threw
a bottle), Lifeless, Wake Me When It's Over, In A Moment of Weakness, Hallucination,
Twisted Sunshine, The Closer I Get to People, Comedy Sketch)
Needless to say, I'm excited to be performing at the Pic (622 West Pender) again
on Friday the 30th (Trash Palace 3).
This time with Elizabeth, Blue Science, and on the decks, my!
gay! husband ! vs Crime aka Mar & Kayla, DJ John Cougar vs Robert
Robot, Dr. Jones vs The Beer Bongs.
All this for $8. Doors open at 9.
(What songs will The Rain and the Sidewalk perform this time? Come on down to
find out!)
Two(!) Shows coming Up...
Ok, it looks like The Rain and the Sidewalk is playing two shows at the Pic (622 West Pender) this month...!
First one is on Saturday, January 17th with GangBang and They Shoot Horses, Don't They. $6 cover, doors open at 9.
The
second is on Friday Jan. 30th (Trash Palace 3)
with
Elizabeth, Blue Science, My!Gay!Husband! vs Crime, and
John Cougar vs Robert Robot.
(I'm not sure of the cover $ yet, but I think the doors open at 9 again)
(And I'm planning on not having the same set list for both shows, in case anyone wants to go to both :-)
Jan
01, 2004: Show Coming Up, MP3.com site gone, Auxiliary site back up...
Bad news: The MP3.com
site is gone because MP3.com
is gone...
Good news: The Auxiliary site is finally
back up again with more imaginary
B-sides, rarities, and crap.
And it looks as though The Rain and the Sidewalk might be performing at
the Piccadilly Pub
(620 West Pender) on January 17th with Gangbang
and They
Shoot Horses Don't They...
If I actually find out for sure what's happening I'll post it here.
(Or if anyone out there could fill me in on the details, drop me a line :-)
Nov. 12, 2003: Shindig Pix!
Here's some photos from the Shindig gig:
Oct
29, 2003
Shindig Results, A Radio Performance & more...
Overdue for a news update again...!
Well, September turned out to be an interesting month.
First off, the Shindig
show on the 16th was lots of fun...
Up first was Splatter,
who started things off with a bang... My Dad said they made him think of Tura
Satana crossed with Swedish
death metal... (He listens to that sort of stuff, so I'll take his word
for it...) (Actually, apparently Splatter have more songs covering more musical
territory than what they played that night... I think they might have won if
they'd gone for more variety) Not only was their vocalist sexy, but she's way
better at that demonic growling thing than I've ever been... So anyway, I sat
there thinking "wow, I'm going on after this??" which was partly me being intimidated,
partly me finding the contrast hilarious...
Anyway, next up was "The Rain and the Sidewalk"... I guess it was a fairly decent
set with the exception of my inability to sing a single note on key all night...
(Oddly enough, this didn't stop Terminal
City from selecting The Rain and the Sidewalk as who should have won for
their Shindig Audit that week...! That's just so sweet of them)
TRATS's set: Idiot (The Self-Loathing Song), Repulsive Pining,
Twisted Sunshine, The Closer I Get To People,
That Water Fountain Spoke To Me, Shadow, Comedy Sketch.
Last up was the band Elizabeth...
They promptly won over the crowd (and the judges) with a very tight, catchy
set. I wasn't too surprised that they won, they were good... (Although I do
have one complaint... I kind of would have liked a bit more variety...) Elizabeth
were also classy enough to tell me how much they enjoyed my set... (Bonus points
for the Smiths
t-shirt too. I also liked how at the end of their set, the vocalist threw his
guitar on the stage... he then looked like he was going to start smashing it
some more, but then seemed to come to his senses and change his mind...)
Overall, that was one of the best shows I've been to in a long time.
The comments that the judges gave me were critical, but very positive and encouraging.
(Many Joy
Division comparisons ensued... I'm actually getting a bit disturbed by that..)
Not too surprisingly, the September issue of Discorder
makes mention of the show...(Although a bit more than I expected...)
(The review on page 31 seems to be an edit of the review at Tannoc.net.
I'm actually kind of disappointed that one of the "truly"'s was dropped from
the sentence "His voice was truly, truly atrocious"...)
And as an added bonus, the Rain and the Sidewalk (as well as Splatter) also
made live appearance on "Live from Thunderbird Radio Hell" on CITR on
the 25th. That went rather nicely (although I was a bit surprised by the mix
that went over the air... the monitor mix in the studio was perfect... what
went over the air... well, I think the synths and samples are somewhere under
all that guitar and vocal reverb... Where the vocals weren't too off key and
the guitar wasn't too out of tune, it sounds pretty cool though... We'll hopefully
get some MP3s up sometime soon) (
songs performed: Tonight We Are Standing On The Edge Of The World,
Moving Backwards,
Slow-Motion Shattering, Failures, Idiot (The Self Loathing Song), Harmless,
In A Moment of Weakness, That Water Fountain Spoke to Me
I might have to temporarily move the Auxiliary (sevcom) site to a slightly
different URL... (you might have noticed the music page on that site has disappeared)
More MP3s coming soon though.... Stay tuned...
Sept
09, 2003: Shindig, New Project Coming, and Sad News
Well, lots of news since the last update.
First off, it looks like it's now official: The Rain and the Sidewalk will be playing at The Railway Club (579 Dunsmuir Street, Vancouver, BC) on Sept. 16 as part of this year's Shindig, CITR's annual battle of the bands). Go figure... (The very idea of me playing at a 'battle of the bands' type of contest seems so absurd to me that this should be good for a laugh... even if it's at my expense :-)
Meanwhile, Wayde Compton's next book (which should be published sometime next year) will likely include a CD (kind of an alternate version of Wayde's "The Reinventing Wheel" project) that Trevor contributed something vaguely resembling hip-hop beats(!) to. Stay tuned for more details...
And if that's not enough, it looks like The Rain and the Sidewalk's ever-forthcoming debut CD 'Inanimate' is actually (finally) very close to completion (Not that Trevor has any idea what to do with it when it's done, but that's another story...)
Finally, some sad news. In case you haven't already heard, Ms. T's Cabaret (the only club that TRATS has performed live at so far) was destroyed in a fire that burned down the Victory Block building on the 300 block of West Pender St in downtown Vancouver on July 4... As far as I know, there was fortunately no loss of life but the whole building (including apparently artist galleries...) is gone, with many people losing everything...
New Mixes and New site
Trevor has set up a new site on the Severed Heads community.
http://trats.sevcom.com
The site will contain yet more mixes and songs which you won't be able to find anywhere but there.
The songs will also be available in a lower quality MP3 version, so all you out there still on dial up can download them faster.
New mixes have been added for download!
Lifeless (machine mix)
Malibu (burnt-out mix)
Also, some of the mixes are going to be taken off the site at the end of the month.
Gonna be rotating the mixes available every couple of months from now on. Check back often for new mixes and news.
Jan 22 2003: A New Compilation Appearance!
Rumour has it that The Rain and the Sidewalk contributed a couple of unlikely
(and unauthorized) cover songs to the rare and mysterious 2-CD
Mangled By The Tool
Of Satan
compilation.
It's actually a private release, put together by and for the many talented and
strange people on the Severed
Heads mailing list.
Some clues might be found at the Sevcom
site.
Additionally, many songs from Mangled have apparently been broadcast on Furthermore (hosted by Adrian Bertram and Shannon O'Neill) on 2mbs-fm 102.5mhz, Sydney, Australia, including Trevor's slightly out of character interpretation of the Severed Heads' song Propellor which was apparently aired on December 19th.
Meanwhile, Trevor is still tinkering with the long overdue Inanimate CD. Trevor is confident that he will be finished with it by the year 2015 :-) (assuming the human race hasn't wiped itself out before then...)
Aug
24 2002: Mofo's 4-0 Party: with Shrimpmeat
and guests Ms T's Cabaret (339 W Pender, Vancouver)
these guests turned out to be
DJ And Y 
the Huskee Dudes
Scott Jacks
and for some strange reason The Rain and the Sidewalk (thanks Shannon!)
Many
cool surprises. You should have been there.
Not surprisingly, excellent sound by Paul.
Once again, thanks for the transportation, Wayde.
Thanks to everyone for putting up with me. (And thanks to Mofo for giving us all an excuse to have a party!)
TRATS's
set: Wake Me When It's Over / Abrasive Candy / Harmless / Hollow / Twisted Sunshine*
/ Slow-Motion S/chattering** 
*an inadvertently
unique version (You'd think Trevor would know how that song's supposed to go
by now...)
**this time there was a delay at the beginning of the song due to Trev's inability
to load the sequence. Sheesh.
Trevor's Incoherent Thoughts On His First Live Show
Also kudos to Mofo for putting up with my constant whining about the monitor
mix ("More vocals! More vocals! More vocals!! Ok, now less feedback and more
vocals!" Might have helped if I'd actually sung into the mic instead of constantly
moving off axis) And kudos to Paul for doing a great salvage job with the inscrutable
sub-mixes I gave him to work with.. 
Brain
Surgery did a great job with the visuals (and as an added bonus, inadvertently
gave me just enough light to see what the heck I was doing).
I unfortunately missed Koolatron's set because my transportation had to leave
early (Thanks for the help there Wayde!), but Rich's and Inject's
sets were awesome.
Thanks
to everyone for coming out and being so nice! 
TRATS's
set: Hollow* / Repulsive Pining** / Hallucination / Harmless / Comedy Sketch
/ Moving Backwards / Tonight We Are Standing On The Edge Of The World / Slow-Motion
S/chattering*** 
*hampered
slighty by Trevor's apparent inability to perform without a perfect monitor
mix. What a wimp.
**an inadvertently unique version (ie. hampered by Trev's inability to remember
what part of the song goes where. Luckily, no one noticed)
***slight technical problems quite frankly caused by Trev's own stupidity.
Overall, not exactly flawless, but a good starting point
The
Rain and the Sidewalk
will be performing his first live show on
Friday, May 3 at
Ms. T's, 339 W. Pender, Vancouver, BC, Canada.
He will be performing with
Rich Hamakawa of the Mad Knob Technicians (nouveau-wave acid techno)
Koolatron (ambient trance)
Inject (jazzbient,
breaks, techhouse, trance and jungle)
This
site has mutated slightly.
Due to there being a ridiculous number of 'Introverts' out there in music
land (like 6 or 10 or something silly like that), Trevor has decided a name
change to be in order.
From now on the artist formerly known as Introvert shall be called The Rain and the Sidewalk(lifted from the lyrics to a song which might appear on the second CD...if Trevor ever manages to finish mixing the first one before going completely insane...) Thanks to Wayde Compton and Dave for their valuable (and somewhat entertaining) input.
We've added a new unreleased track to the site; it's an alternate mix of Tonight We Are Standing on the Edge of the World. Enjoy! Past News
Wayde Compton's debut performance of his Turntable Poetry project at the SFU Harbour Center on Nov 15 was a success. (Check out Wayde's site for more info about the Reinventing Wheel.) Having helped Wayde record his voice/words for the project (and having helped carry his turntables and mixer from the car to the Time Centre Policy room), Trevor was ecstatic to hear Wayde's performance go so well.
