VCL's New Mascot or should I say... Mouscot!

Once upon a rainy monday night (not so uncommon to Vancouver) VCL found an improvised addition to the second performance. A small body decided to enter the theatre through the back door to join in with our fantastic second act, Reid Jamieson!  Our wee mouse friend snuck in and out of the spotlight,  startling the photographer, and settling down for a few minutes beside Mr Jamieson's left shoe. The friendly little creature was taken outside, but proceeded to return from the rain and stationed himself beside Mr Jamieson's microphone pole.  After that we smiled and conceded that the mouse was here to stay... at least till the end of the performance!

DON ALDER KEITH KNIGHT

Don Alder and Keith Knight recently joined us in a video/audio recording session for a promotional DVD production of some of there music. Both fantastic guitar players with style and speed. Don Alder is also noted as holding the 2007 international finger-style championship. Check out www.youtube.com/vancouvercitylimits to see a preview of their music. Thanks goes out to Bruce Gerrish, Daniella Sorrentino, Colin Speir and BreakFree Productions for last minute additional Camera Gear. G.FAULKNER

Six bucks is all it costs for entry into one of Vancouver’s best kept musical secrets. Vancouver City Limits has its finger on the pulse of the city’s burgeoning music scene and it has rapidly become one of the most intimate performing venues in town. Musical styles run the gamut but the constants are diverse talent and distinct originality.

Every Monday night from 7:30 to 10:30PM, Vancouver City Limits presents a musical showcase in the Beaumont Stage, a cozy 65-seat theatre & performance space offering performers an opportunity to present their music in a concert like setting featuring. Each week features three new performers from the city’s best emerging singer/songwriters, duos and acoustic oriented bands.

The performances are video taped before a live audience by a professional crew and the footage is posted on The Vancouver City Limits YouTube channel where all previous performances can be viewed.

Vancouver City Limits also produces its own highly successful Vancouver City Limits Music and Arts Festival, a family oriented event that takes place twice a year with music performed day and night in non-stop fashion rotating between the intimate in-door theatre and out-door stage. Music, art, food, and a beer garden make the Festival a must see. Scheduled for the June 20 & 21st weekend, (Summer Solstice), this year’s festival should prove to be one of the hottest tickets in town.
