Raconteurs | Kool Haus | Toronto

I obviously like going to see bands play live. I feel it is a fair trade for my money. I’ll gladly shell out dollars to watch a band work. I often take on to a band and then surf to see when they’ll be playing in Toronto. More importantly - where they will be playing in Toronto. My heart sinks a bit when I read the venue being The Kool Haus. I’ve seen some good shows at the Kool Haus and yes, there are worse venues in the city…but not many. It is in between intimate/small and cavernous/big. Not a huge fan.
I couldn’t make it to the Raconteurs gig at the Kool Haus on Thursday, so I did what I always do…browse for other reviews. I came across the review that The National Post did and I love the first sentence - a well communicated point that sums up exactly how I feel about catching a gig at The Kool Haus,
“By the time a band makes it to the Kool Haus, there is a good chance that you’ve already missed what was great about them.”
Very, very true.
Because I wasn’t at the gig, I’ll send you to a well written review from the Post, but I’d like your comments and feedback from the show because multiple reviews are better than one and…I trust and enjoy all of the reviews from you faceless friends.

Well my concert partner Todd made it out to this show and he did like it. There are not too many shows we at concertaholics.com don’t like.
It’s not a “Post Review”… but it’s from a fan and a music lover.
Next stop MMJ.
