Review: The Trews at Rideau Carleton Raceway

Vero’s parents are in town and they offered to babysit so we went searching for a good night out.

A good night out came in the form of the Rideau Carleton Raceway’s Superbowl party….for $40 you get two free drinks, a pound of wings, a $20 voucher to play the slot machines and most importantly…a concert by The Trews!

It’s been awhile since we have seen the The Trews but once again (at no surprise), they kicked some serious ass.  Man these guys rock!

I remember years ago seeing Alice in Chains at Bluesfest and lamenting the fact that they only had a one hour set.  But then they proceeded to blow me away.  Just pure rock for 60 minutes straight.  It changed my view on the one hour concert slot.

The Trews were no different…Vero commented that they were just piling on all the hits one after another with no time in between.  They got a job to do and they were sticking to it!  It was fantastic!!!

John-Angus even strutted up onto the top of the bar while soloing.  How much more rock and roll can you get?

And hey, I even managed to record the thing on iPhone which is turning out to be a trusty recording device.

10/10!
