Leaving our friend Will's place in Fredericton, we drove to Riviere du Loup and arrived at Cafe L'innocent. A friendly place on the main bar strip in town, it was a great little venue for us. Furthermore, we were provided with our own apartment above the place! The show went well, and the audience (all 7 of them) was generally receptive. We made 13 dollars, some new friends, and played a really great show.
We left Riv-du-Loup for the long drive to Ottawa, passing through Montreal in a traffic jam in the midst of a downpour just as our walkie talkies died and it was nearly impossible for us to all stay together on the road. Somehow, we made it, and the rest of the drive to Ottawa was clear and easy going. We arrived at the Elmdale Tavern, set up, and had a few minutes to check out the area before playing a couple of the most amazing, highest-energy sets yet.
We're staying with Donald's good friend Moriah while we're in Ottawa, and today we'll be busking, checking out the Parliament buildings, and getting some R&R in before our show tonight at the Umi Cafe.
