[February.19th-2011 At Marcello's Bar Show Review]

Our first out of town show was a blast!! We had a great time with friends, fans, and bands at Marcello's bar in Streetsville, Ontario!! Just a small line up change in the review below, the band TooNice had snowed in members and could not make the show, but luckily our friend and the lead guitarist for the group House Of Coconuts helped us out in the last minute situation and played a acoustic set of his own in place of TooNice. So a special thanks to him!! Also a big thanks to each and everyone who came out and made the night a great one!!

James Faulkner(10:00)

Opening the show in the 10:00PM spot was singer/songwriter from near by Mississauga James Faulkner. James brought a strong following out to watch him put on one heck of a performance. Without a doubt one of the best solo acts I have personally ever seen. James has a super strong voice and is a true talent with the guitar skills to complement his voice.Below is a clip of James playing live from the night of the show.

Contact James Faulkner At www.MySpace.Com/JamesDavidFaulkner- www.JamesFaulkner.Ca Or "James Faulkner" On Facebook.

Bang Bang You're Dead(10:30)

Up in the 10:30PM spot was Bang Bang You're Dead. The band consists of Rob, Jake, TJ, Dylan, and Andrew. These guys brought a awesome rock sound, with lead singer Rob Coxford incorporating synth into the mix. The band has the strong 1,2 punch when it comes to vocals with guitarist Jake Chirico providing the secondary singing. Bang Bang You're Dead is a very solid band, and I urge you to definitely check them out if you get the chance. You can get a taste of what you will get live by checking out the clip below, it was recorded the night of the show.

Cecil Eugene(11:00)

In the 11:00PM spot was Cecil Eugene. We have to give Cecil a special thanks for playing for us since it was on very short notice. When we were informed that TooNice could not make it, we asked Cecil if he could swing a acoustic set for us, and he was more then happy too. So we extend a special thanks to him. If your wondering why he looks familiar, it's because he is also the lead guitarist in the band "House Of Coconuts" who often plays shows with us as well. If you are a fan of good acoustic songs, you are a fan of Cecil Eugene's solo music. It was a strong, upbeat, catchy set of well written music. Check it out for yourself below, it is a clip live from the show.

Broken City Screams(11:30)

Finishing off the show strong, with a solid performance as per always was the group of guys from King City. Sean, Jonny, Ian, and Kyan. The guys brought there hardcore genre with melodic vocals to Marcello's and did not disappoint. Everyone was into each and every song. The guys were so good that the fans demanded encore after encore, and Broken City Screams did not disappoint and dished out a couple more songs to a eager crowd. Do not miss these guys live, they are a blast and you can catch them playing for Heroic Entertainment again Sunday.February.27th at "The Shop" (www.PartsAndLabour.Ca) and then Thursday.March.3rd at the 2nd floor El Mocambo.Check out a clip of them we took live below and you will see exactly why the crowd wanted a encore multiple times!!

"Heroic Entertainment knows how to set up a good show! I didn't know what to expect at first when I walked in, but there was an aura in the place that brought out the best in everyone there! Heroic Entertainment truly capitalized on this and we all had a great time! Mike and I go WAY back and he always comes through when it's game time - that night at the El Mocambo was no exception! Looking forward to more opportunities to rock more stages across the city!!"

Lead Singer & Guitarist Adam Macciocchi Lancia Of Eighty Nine The Band-From Our Sunday.November.28th-2010 "Battle Against Cancer" Show At The El Mocambo(1st Floor)

"Performing that night and the whole show in general was amazing. it was our first time playing in a smaller venue and it felt more intimate for Josh(Drummer) and I playing together and for the crowd. It definitely had a more chill atmosphere than the shows you do with other promoters and that was great. Just the whole show in general was awesome and we can wait to party it up again"
www.MySpace.Com/EightyNineTheBand

Lead Singer Joseph Hero From Killing Isaac-From Our Sunday.November.28th-2010 "Battle Against Cancer" At The El Mocambo(1st Floor)

"It was an awesome time! "The guys were really cool to work with and Very welcoming, I felt like I didn't need to worry about anything except to give it my all on stage, which is NOT always the case. Kudos to the soundboard gentleman as well! Between there crew, the sound engineer, and Max(photographer) on taking pictures, they gave me no doubt in my mind that I'd do it all over again with the guys!"

House Of Coconuts Guitarist Cecil Eugene-From Our Sunday.November.28th-2010 "Battle Against Cancer" Show At The El Mocambo(1st Floor)

" Incredible! It is probably one of the best shows we've ever had. The guys are very down to earth and humble and I cant wait to play with them again"

"Heroic Entertainment were really quick to respond to inquiries and were super easy going to work with!"

Singer/Rapper Batista From Our Thursday.January.13th-2011 Show At The El Mocambo(2nd Floor)

"Mike and shane and the rest of the heroic entertainment team made this show fun, and when we have fun the fans have fun. I look forward to working with heroic ent again, and again, and again, and again"

Rob Northy Singer/Guitarist Of Viral Spiral-From Our Thursday.January.13th-2011 Show At The El Mocambo(2nd Floor)

"Heroic Entertainment is nothing short of heroic when it comes to serving local up-and-coming talent as well as the entertainment industry. When I walked into the El Mocambo I was greeted by Mike and he knew my name, my last name, and the band I'm with. I can't even remember all that! When I needed assistance finding power outlets to tune-up, Mike himself was there to help. When my band took the stage, Mike was there beside me to make sure everything was going smoothly according to my immediate needs. As promised, sure enough, there was a photographer clicking away as soon as we started our first song! That's the best way I can think of compensating a new band on the scene. Like clockwork, there was a 1-song video and about 100 photos of our set sent to me the next day! Jeez, why hasn't someone already done this type of thing for bands?!! His photographer, Max is a great guy and is the first one I'll call when it's time for location/studio shots. All in all, I'm looking forward to participating in the presentations Heroic Entertainment will be doing in the future. This company has artists in mind and we wish it all the success for it's "heroic" efforts for this reason - after all, it's the artists that audiences are there to see. So when a promoter shows that kind of top-drawer concern for the amazing talent cropping up in Toronto, we have to be thankfull! Mike, you're setting a new standard for band promotion in this good country and I go pale when I reflect on the kind of heart you've shown us on our first gig"

[Heroic Entertainment Presents: "A Night At The Palace"]

[Intro]

Welcome to the the blog review of our show "A Night At The Palace" that took place on Sunday.January.16th-2011. It was a amazing show, and a great time. Every single artist was at their best. It was a pleasure meeting each and everyone of them, and i can't wait to have the pleasure of having them play another show for us.
We are proud to say that we raised a great amount of money for Sick Kids Childrens Hospital, and they were beyond thankful for it. We would like to thank each band for playing the show for a great cause, and each fan that braved the cold to come have a great night of live music at Lee's palace. All pictures featured in this blog of our performers are from the show itself, courtesy of Max Portughes(www.PixByMax.Com)

[The Performers]

Kevin Martins(8:00)

Starting off our Lee's Palace show in the 8:00 spot was acoustic singer/songwriter Kevin Martins. Kevin brought his strong vocals to us and did not disappoint. He kicked off the show exactly the way we had hoped, and got everybody in the right mood for a great night of music ahead. He did more then just play great guitar, and sing amazing music, he also kept the crowd chuckling with his great sense of humour. We were very happy to have Kevin Martins open the show for us, and you will definitely be seeing him at another one of our shows in the very near future!!
Contact Kevin Martins At www.MySpace.Com/KevinMartinsMusic or "Kevin Martins Music" On Facebook

Tallulah Darling(8:30)

Starting in the 8:30 spot was the all girl rock band Tallulah Darling, which consist of Elora Taylor on lead vocals/rhythm guitar, Dee Filc on bass/backing vocals, Alex Pearl on lead guitar, and for this show Brec filling in on drums as they look for a permanent female drummer. If you are a female drummer or know someone that is, follow the contact info below and give the girls a message. Tallulah Darling was lead by Elora Taylor's strong vocals, but you can't count out the catchy, up beat music put to her voice by Dee, Alex and Brec. Tallulah Darling played a fun, catchy set that wont be soon forgotten.

Killing Isaac(9:00)

Making there second appearance for Heroic Entertainment were the great guys of Killing Isaac. Joseph, Alex, Jason, Steven, Robin returned after making there debut with us at our November.28th-2010 "Battle Against Cancer" show at the El Mocambo. Once again the guys put on an amazing show, and left everyone wanting more. The music was solid as usual, and the performance a grand one. One of the highlights of there set was lead singer Joseph Hero leaping up onto one of the window ledge's of the private rooms Lee's Palace has, which is over 8 ft. high. We love having these guys, and they always make it a good night. See you guys soon!!

Dead Panorama(10:00)

Closing the show off in the 10:00PM spot were the trio, Brandon, Robert, and Adam of Dead Panorama. I would like to thank the guys for allowing each band to use there drum kit, as alot of bands are not always willing to do that. The show was able to go that much smoother, and all the set times stayed accurate due to this kind gesture. As soon as the music began from these 3 guys, you could tell they knew exactly what they were doing. A interesting sight to behold was when bassist Brandon Spray traded places with Drummer Robert Hyde and they performed a few songs like that. Just goes to prove how talented these guys really are!! We look forward to another show with them in the near future.

At our first show November.28th-2010 "The Battle Against Cancer" The positions were reversed. Batista & Brizz brought the calm, soothing feeling in the El Mocambo to a halt as soon as they hit the stage with there solid beats and vocals. Not many shows mix genres, but we here at Heroic Entertainment have no problem doing it, as we have seen the positive outcome each and every time.

The trio of Viral Spiral, Rob on vocals, Shawn on drums, and Jason on bass was a very strong set.

The 5 guys in the House Of Coconuts took the closing spot on short notice, and we really appreciate it. We know these guys are true musicians and would play at 1 PM or 1AM all for the love of music. They put on a great show as always to cap off the night. They will be playing our February.6th-2011 show at Rancho Relaxo, so be sure to come check them out!!
