3rd time seeing Yukon Blonde- consistently good!!!
by Lillianroxton on 2011-10-16Lee's Palace - TorontoRating: 4 out of 5This is my 3rd time seeing Yukon Blonde perform and I must state they are one band who is consistently good that never disappoint-- excellent stage presence, great vibe, fluid sound and sharp lyrics. The band played a varied collection of songs from "oldies" (first album) but goodies and new tracks from their latest EP. The glow sticks thrown into the crowd while seemed like a novel idea really didn't add much value to the show and I believe the band doesn't require such gimmicks to get the crowd pumped. The band mascot (Afro sporting vest wearing dude) also an addition not overly welcomed - however it was lee's palace and Saturday night and after enough drinks I'm sure many would have been entertained. Last, I look florward to seeing them play a slightly larger venue with even better sound capacity like The Opera House where the vocals can really take flight! See this band now before they inevitably get signed to a major label and sell out and their vibe change all together to appeal to the masses!
