The organizers of this fundraising concert generously asked us to play a short set along with a variety of other student bands that will be playing the same night. It was a fun show, if a little short and a little rough, but it's always nice playing in front of new and receptive audiences.

Modern Republic returns to The Roxy! The turnout was even better this time, and our new song "Kings and Queens" went over really well.

This was a big show for us -- probably our biggest show to date, actually. We can't thank everyone who came out to see and support us enough (and there was a lot of you!). We received a very favourable reaction from the bar manager too, so this is a venue we'd definitely like to play at again in the near future.

New Music West is a pretty big music festival in Vancouver, and we're quite proud to have been invited to play in it. Despite some initial worries that Ayren's guitar amp was about to crap out on him, we played a good show (and the amp behaved for the duration). The audience started off a little small, but grew quite a bit as we were playing. This was also the first show in which we handed out our new demo CDs.

This gig started off with basically no one in the audience, but the seats filled up quite nicely as we went along. We're not really "jazzy" or "bluesy", but it was fun to be part of this festival. Maybe next year we'll play on one of the bigger stages!

This show was a lot of fun. We had a huge outdoor stage to play on, and a great audience too, including quite a few people who had never heard us before and were very impressed.

This was our first downtown, paid gig. The fact that the whole band earned a total of $20 should tell you that there wasn't too many people there that night.

Last-minute line-up shuffling ended up having us 'headlining' the event, which is always a bit of a bummer at YouthFest because no one sticks around until the end.

Our first show ever went surprisingly well (for us, anyway; sound problems plagued The Liquorpigs), and was also very well-attended.
