Today is the day that everything kicks off for this years Kitchener Blues Festival. With multiple stages and a plethora of talent performing over several days, you are going to need to plan carefully to make sure you don’t miss out on all the wonderful entertainment. To make it easier for you to complete this planning, we have refined the schedule of entertainers and re-posted it here for your easy access.

Tonight you will find a FREE event taking place at the Downtown Business Tent at the corner of King and Frederick Streets.

Last month we held an intern contest to find two new people to join our team, and we certainly lucked out with the two people that were chosen.

Take a look and you may just find some people that you didn’t even know were there, as the crowd was big enough that you certainly could have gone all day and never hooked up with some of your friends.

I had the huge honour of interviewing members of Finger Eleven for the Local Vibe e-zine (http://localvibe.ca).  We met backstage and while their lead vocalist, Scott Anderson, warmed up, I chatted with Rick Jackett and Rich Beddoe (their guitarist and drummer).  Their passion was infectious.  They had such exuberant candor when it came to talking about their [...]

It was no surprise to see hundreds of people lined up down the street and around the corner to get into this year’s “Beat Rocks the Block” in downtown Kitchener this past Saturday. After all, the event was showcasing the likes of Stereos, The New Cities, Marianas Trench, and of course Finger Eleven, along with [...]
