Full review to follow. Never have I felt such a seemingly unending, relentless winter in this town, but the monthly instalments of Long Winter were all welcome respites. This second season closed out with a somewhat heavier night — Fucked Up finally made a last-minute appearance to preview their forthcoming Glass Boys album to close things out. But there was still a lot of variety stuffed in around the edges. It seemed like the crowd at this all-ages affair got younger every month, and from what I could tell a lot of the younger cohort came with open ears, willing to take a chance on the bands besides the ones they came to see. We don't have enough of this going on, so here's hoping that next winter is once again a Long Winter. (Except, like, weather-wise. Please don't make us deal with that again!)

This London, ON combo brought some tasty power-pop to open things up on the main stage. When Sheezer played LW last month, I was once again struck how much I'd love to hear that group come up with some of their own songs. Well, if they did, they'd probably sound like this.

^* Does anyone know the title to this one? Please leave a comment!
