Johnny Reid Is Primed To Launch 100+ Canadian Concert Dates

By David Farrell

Johnny Reid's Tartan Army is primed with news that an earlier postponed concert tour is back on and is scheduled to start in March.


Love Someone: An Intimate Evening with Johnny Reid is a monster of a tour too, topping more than 100 shows with multiple show dates from Vancouver Island to Newfoundland.

Opening nights are March 15 and 16 at Club Regent Event Centre in Winnipeg. The final dates according to the schedule are at the Regent Theatre in Oshawa, Oct. 27 and 28.

Owing to the fact that an earlier tour had to be postponed because of regional lockdowns, 90-percent of the shows on this tour are already sold out with new additions being added almost daily to fit fan demand where possible.

Ron Sakamoto's Gold & Gold Productions and Sakamoto Entertainment out of Lethbridge is the tour promoter.

Melissa Auf der Maur Captures the Grunge and Chaos of the ‘90s in New Photo Exhibition

My ‘90s Rock Photographs at Toronto’s Art Gallery of Ontario follows the Montreal-born musician through the last analogue decade, capturing on- and off-stage life as the bassist for two of the greatest rock bands: Hole and The Smashing Pumpkins.

Melissa Auf der Maur says she was one of the earliest pioneers of the selfie.

“Everybody knows this perspective now because you all do it on your phones, but I promise you I was the only person doing this. I even got a wide-angle point-and-shoot [camera] so that I could fit more people in [a photo],” she tells Billboard Canada, pointing to an image with famed actor and director Danny DeVito. “He had no idea what I was doing, turning the camera on us. I think my generation started looking at the world in a new way.”
