Taking this girl up there, I’ve been a few times. Going to hit the staples but I’d like to check out some cool music stores and maybe some shows. I’ve been to Moog Music but nowhere else.

Also if anyone’s doing a house or regular show and wants some acoustic shoegaze get at me.

Looking for good cheap eats, cool bars basically anything.

Jump to 15:59 and replace "Montreal" with "Toronto"

Geez, I missed this for whatever reason.

I do listings of cool T.O. shows on Mondays, so maybe of use for the future: http://mechanicalforestsound.blogspot.c ... p-253.html

Argh! Just saw this now.

Hope you went to Paul's Boutique. Great place to find gear if you like fishing.
Repeated visits, of course, yield best results. But sometimes you can find
lightning in a bottle from just one random visit.

If you like picking up records or music on the compact disc platform....
Soundscapes on College Street is awesome. Small space, but a great one.

She Said Boom! has books and LPs and a few CDs

BMV Books is a great place to get used/new books, CDs, movies, etc.

Some of the best food in Toronto is available at Lahore Tikka House at 1365 Gerrard Street East.
