So when people walked into the O Patro Vys last night, it was impossible to think it was actually a Tuesday, and that most people probably had class or work to go to the next day. However, any worrying academic or financial thought was flushed out for a few hours, as the crowd of friends and fans alike gathered around the little show space to support the sweet, amicable, and ever-growing bands of the night.

The Sheepdogs – Cabaret Mile-End – 29.11.11
The Sheepdogs and Monster Truck pulled up outside Le Cabaret du Mile End for the Montreal stop on their Canadian tour to showcase a little of their respective hometowns for a hungry crowd.
