Wrong way out of here Some roads never end Half way home to my bed Half way in my head But in my head and in my sleep What was I thinking I would perceive What was I thinking of to be free What was I thinking, if not of me? I don't know if I'm going to make it Day and night and day in Run around and face it Am I really changing? Am I gonna make it? Day and night and day in Run around and face it What was I thinking baby? Baby, baby, baby - I don't learn ! Baby, baby, baby - I don't learn ! Baby, baby, baby - I don't learn !

Hundreds packed the seated theatre to hear the then-nine-piece Montreal band's intensely emotional instrumental tracks in March 2003. The venue closed forever soon after as part of the building collapsed in 2004. Decades later, the group returned to the city with decades of albums and stage experience — minus a lengthy hiatus in early 2000s — to play a Supercrawl-presented show at Bridgeworks in November 2024. Godspeed's newest album, 'NO TITLE AS OF 13 FEBRUARY 2024, 28,340 DEAD,' follows the same intensity with droning chords and impactful crescendos.

What's On? art weekly round up: a picnic-themed festival, candlelight performances and a magic show
Bring out your lawn chairs and picnic blankets to Burlington's LaSalle Park on Saturday and you will be met with wine and charcuterie boards, line dancing and live performances. The organizers of Hamilton's Supercrawl and local concerts, Sonic Unyon, expect hundreds of attendees to their 'Why Not Wine' event on Saturday featuring around 13 wine and charcuterie board vendors. David Young, Sonic Unyon's director of communications and design, said the third event of its kind will be different in both venue and atmosphere this year. 'There were the two years that it was at Bridgeworks in Hamilton and the feeling was that it was not quite the right setting for it,' said Young. Sonic Unyon works out of and hosts events at the Caroline Street North Bridgeworks, which had an atmosphere that was more attuned to a fall fair, he said. This year's festival will be at the Burlington waterfront park, where attendees will learn how to line dance. 'You have so much in the way of a great green space and natural wonder around us that's sometimes easy to get lost in the details of city life,' said Young. 'It's nice to bring people back to that.' Environment Canada forecasts a high of 22 C and a sunny Saturday, but Young said if that changes, the organizers will move the event to the park's pavilion. Sonic Unyon saw about 500 to 800 people attend its previous two-day event. This year's event is only one day. Events like the 'Why Not Wine Festival' start out as ideas from the team or their immense local arts network before Sonic Unyon makes it a reality, said Young. 'A conversation goes on for a little while and before we know it, we're doing the thing,' said Young. Getting out to see friends — and strangers — face to face will always be important, he said. It is what Young believes is the reason the group's events are always a hit, in addition to local creative people putting ideas into action. 'It's also just the Hamilton way,' said Young. If you'd like to get out of the house on Saturday, you can buy tickets online or at the gate for $39. Here are other arts and culture events you can attend in the coming week: The Hess Street South pub will host a Mother's Day dinner and dance party on Sunday, May 11.
