Both shows went off without a hitch.

Mackenzie Collins kicked off both evenings with a well received collection of acoustic numbers, again, proving his versatility and why he is the lead singer of Herman Manderchuck.

D-Grade tore it up Friday with a high-energy set including many of their originals, and ended the night with a crowd favorite; "Sweet Home Alabama."

After D-Grade Lymozeen took to the stage and did what they do best: Rocked the dust out of the rafters at the Campbell River Lodge.

Saturday night saw Herman Manderchuck kicking off the evening with a selection of classic rock tunes, executed with precision and enthusiasm. The near-capacity crowd truly came to life when they pounded out Golden Earring's super-hit, "Radar Love." The crowd was ready...

...For Lymozeen. Brice, Max, and Callum gave brilliant performances, wow-ing the enthusiastic crowd with their youthful exuberance. Right from the first note of Brice's opening "Eruption," to the high-energy display of guitar-wizardry in the closing bars of Black Sabbath's "Paranoid." One of their best performances to date, these boys did not miss a beat, and left the audience hollering for more.

D-Grade, Herman Manderchuck, and Lymozeen would all like to thank Ted and Sharon and all the staff at the Campbell River Lodge for allowing them a great venue to play, and for doing everything in their power to make it an enjoyable experience.

Also, a special thanks to Paul Suurhoff for taking all the pictures seen in this blog entry (as well as many more) on Saturday night.

And, above all, thank you to all the fans that came out to see us at this event. Please catch us next time.

Thanks for your support,

"The Garage" - Duncan Oct. 21st

Another road trip in the name of rock and roll.

Lymozeen

"The Garage" in Duncan, B.C. hosted a great performance by D-Grade and Lymozeen. The two bands shared the stage and played their hearts out for a great, enthusiastic crowd.

If you've never been to "The Garage," put it on your to-do list. It's a great venue, perfect for all ages and all acts. Thanks to our friend Longevity John (the owner and promoter of "The Garage") for giving us, as well as many others, a place to play. We'd like to thank him and his team for creating a welcoming enviroment for performers to display their craft. You're doing a great thing.

Campbell River Lodge Oct. 27/28th

On October 27^th and 28^th Campbell River will be host to rock and roll history. Join Lymozeen for two nights at The Local with special guests D-Grade on Friday and Herman Manderchuck on Saturday. If you love real rock and roll this is the must see event of this millennium (or at least this month).

Friday’s opening act will be Duncan’s D-Grade. With an impressive list of venues ranging from The Edgewater Pub in Comox to The Steamer’s Pub in Victoria where they were recently awarded “Runners Up” in The Steamer’s Battle of the Bands competition. D-Grade will bring a blend of classic hits ranging from Stevie Wonder to Metallica as well as their own original material. Lymozeen will close the evening with a powerful selection of classics from the original metal god Ozzy Osbourne, and Black Sabbath.

D-Grade

Saturday night the silence will be broken with Campbell River’s new up and coming band “Herman Manderchuck.” After many years of honing their skills, this group of young men have postponed their university studies for one year in order to join forces and perform an eclectic mix of rock and roll hits with an enthusiasm and energy only youth can expel. If you like Steppenwolf, Motley Crue, or AC/DC you’re gonna love Herman.

(L to R: Josh, Dan, Brice, Brendan)

Following Herman Manderchuck will be Lymozeen again, this time performing an upbeat set including everything from Roy Orbison’s ‘Pretty Woman’ to Peter Frampton’s “Do You Feel Like We Do” to Van Halen’s “Ain’t Talkin Bout Love.” Join lead singer/guitarist Brice Tabish and the boys for a high-energy evening you won’t soon forget.

Performances being at 8:15PM on Friday and Saturday. No cover charge. Must be legal drinking age to attend.

Port Hardy

We made it back in one piece. After performing at the "His Place'" Youth Center, Lymozeen and guest band Herman Manderchuck began the long journey back to Campbell River - not without first stopping at the local Chevron Station for supplies (Energy Drinks, Chips, Slurpees, and other health food items).

Here's a picture of Lymozeen's special guests: Herman Manderchuck


The show went great! We'd like the thank the "His Place" staff for making sure we were okay during the set up and tear down, and for making our time there enjoyable. It was a very cool venue, and provides a great service for the youth of Port Hardy. Both Lymozeen and Herman Manderchuck would love to play there again, and look forward to future involvement with the Port Hardy Youth Council.

Here's a picture of the Lymozeen boys doing what they do best:

Thank you to everybody for your support.
