Shake, rattle and roll
Every year local musician Darry Hurs holds a benefit for the Multiple Sclerosis Society at the Cameron House (408 Queen St. W.) where 100% of proceeds go to the charity. Hurs hopes the event, initiated when his mother was diagnosed with MS, will not only raise some dough for the cause but get people together for some chuckles. “I just wanted to do something and found that playing music is the best thing I could do. It is a good time when friends get together and just have fun.” Taking place on the 7th, this third installment features the likes of Hurs, Hamilton’s Ponderoo and Spring.

Your “Comfort Zone”
Filling in until the new El Mocambo is ready, the Comfort Zone (480 Spadina Ave.) will play host to New York’s Antipop Consortium. One of the world’s most cutting edge hip hop/tech rock crews (they toured Europe with Radiohead) this crew makes their Toronto debut this Saturday. Ensuring the show is filled with debauchery, locals Slit Slot and Don Cash open.
