December, 2005 (back to the top)

  • jemo played a show at The Bagel in Toronto on December 16, 2005.
  • The December 16th show was Now Magazine's Critic's Pick (December 15 - 21)

My review of the show:

The show rocked. It was hilarious and funny and my second time watching jemo, but my first time really "experiencing" it. I mentioned months ago that I was going to retire from doing video recordings of stuff because I can't really enjoy stuff since I'm thinking of lighting, camera angles, and if someone's going to walk into my shot. Well I wish I had my video camera that time, since it was a really great show where Jeff was having loads of fun with it. That and it was f**king awsome that he had to tune his guitar, and made his drummer start playing jazz just to fill in the time. BTW, that drummer is HOT.

So I don't actually know any of the jemo songs, I recognize some them, but actually knowing them like knowing titles, and words and stuff are totally beyond me. So I can't help you out there. I just know the drummer looked hot, the bassist was cute, and Jeff was having a great freaking time jumping around on the dance floor since there wasn't enough room for him on the stage. Before last night I didn't think jemo songs was something you could jump around to, but I've been pointed in the error of my ways.

  • jemo played at the Nightmare Music Festival, at Trin/Port in Toronto on October 27, 2005.

Brandon's review of the show:

Fourth (and probably the highlight of my night, for obvious reasons) was jemo. This was my first time seeing him with his new live band. Man, are they ever good! The songs really worked well with the full band, as they do on the recordings... But totally awesome performance. I'm very glad I have these guys on my label, that's for damn sure! The live versions of some of my favourite songs were changed in really interesting ways, and the stuff that wasn't changed was spot on. Great set!
