JBM // AA Bondy



With M so focused on his hunt for the perfect job, I see he's neglected to rave about the JBM/AA Bondy show we attended last week at the Media Club in Vancouver. So I will.

It's a rare occurrence when the opening act has you wondering how the headliner could ever possibly compete. On September 11th, opening act Jesse Merchant (JBM) played to a truly awestruck crowd. I won’t try to regale you with the hauntingly beautiful details of each song, or the fervor that engulfed the room. I will simply tell you, that if you have a chance to see JBM, I you will not be disappointed.

I will also tell you, that not surprisingly, AA Bondy failed to disappoint as well. Capitalizing on an already engaged crowd, he continued to dazzle us with his captivating presence, incredible talent and foot-stompin’, harmonica-blowin' songs.

Fun fact: JBM’s ex-girlfriend, Hollywood starlet Amanda Seyfried, was at the show selling swag. Bizarro.
