Grew up in Toronto but my family moved away in the late 80's. My older brother saw The Clash and The Undertones there in 1978 or 79, I can't exactly remember I was only 7, and the place was trashed.

Very cool video. The Pheonix (Diamond, Harmony) is another spot that needs covering. Opera House as well.

[@FOXLIES]

I saw The Clash, Motorhead and Brian May there

A little late, but thanks for the tour. Love seeing behind the scenes. Visited The Aviary recently - Hopsta La Vista was the perfect afternoon beverage.

[@OldTorontoSeries]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@SueGunther]

Hey Cameron it's not a bar stool it's a planter stand!

[@OldTorontoSeries]

I thought it was a table!

Can you do the Opera house sometime? A venue I still have not been able to see a show at yet and I lived in that area for years in the 90's and never seemed to have show (always looked closed), And I also have a fear of heights.

[@JoshMilesVFX]

Athena would love you to do Opera House. I was the house tech there for many years.

In the early 1980s we were in our later teens and would go there every Friday night to watch Led Zeppelin's Song Remains the Same movie. You could smoke in the theater then. It was preceded in those evenings by the Rocky Horror Picture Show. Àttendees would dress up and act \ yell out the parts right in their seats. The Led Zep movie goers did likewise. A strange crowd indeed but everyone had their form of fun.

[@davemcmichael602]

Wasn't Rocky Horror and the rock movies at the theater at Greenwood and Danforth? The Roxy?

[@woodrailking]

@@davemcmichael602 Yeah

[@brendasmurdoch8551]

It was a great time wasn't it!

[@woodrailking]

. Which legendary acts played there? .

[@smokeamnesiagaming173]

I am a Danforth so this is so amazing to watch, my middle name Allen comes from him, it's truly outstanding seeing this on YT

[@theboys8701]

Fabulous job guys, saw THE POLICE there. 🤪👍

[@dh5040]

Was better as a movie theatre.

[@BigTunaAK]

The concert I saw there was Sarah McLachlan. Late 80’s or early 90’s Loved the venue , I think we were in the last row

[@arricammarques1955]

Echo & The Bunnymen

[@29BKing]

Great tune! It reminded me of something Joel Plaskett might have written.

[@amylazowski439]

That was great! And now I’m really thirsty. 🍺

[@OldTorontoSeries]

You and me both!
