Might go tonight solo after my show. Haven't been to the Hoxton nor seen Farina live either as well. Arrgh decisions.

Scored comp tickets and had a great time. It was my first time seeing Farina and he delivered. I had planned to see him on Canada Day at Sunnyside, but of course, that was around the time his wife suffered her stroke. Music was so groovy and I discovered a new way to boogie.

I left around 3am because it seemed like the right thing to do. The Hoxton was less than half full all night, which hindered the buzz slightly, but the music was awesome! The crowd seemed to have nothing to do with TIFF (mind you, I had seen a film earlier in the evening) and everything to do with house music.

Haha just kidding. The layout is that of a concert hall. Long, but not too narrow, and the place can hold a fair number of people--much bigger than Footwork, for example. There is a long bar that lines the left wall and another smaller bar on the right where they also have a booth or two set up. DJ Booth/stage is raised and at the front with washrooms at the rear.

In terms of sound, the system was crisp and the levels were solid. I do need to acquire another good pair of ear plugs after having lost my last pair though.

Haha thanks, that's a lot better. Hope to check this place out soon. Sounds like it has potential!
