No, in a nutshell. There is the odd Funk night but Funk is taken in its broadest sense.
The Toronto Jazz Festival starts next week and so far we are going to see Betty Lavette and George Benson (not on the same bill).
If you can you should try and get to the Flea Market in St Catherines, you go past on the way to Niagara. Last time there I got Harry Starr, Brown Sugar, Sandra Phillips amongst a pile of other Northern stuff and reggae white labels for a couple of $$ each. Down side is it is Sunday only. There are a couple of vinyl shops in the town as well. The St Catherines Record Show is this weekend so i will be hitting the flea as well
I believe there are a couple of Flea markets out the other way - Whitby - but I have not been that way for a long time.
Mod Club is more of a concert venue now.
Check out Vibrations.ca for a list of local Record Shows, they are on most weekends and I dont mind a passenger if I am in the area. Let me know the dates. I also have a few bits for sale and am about 45 mins out town in Waterdown.
There is a new shop opening on College Street in a week or two run by a young lad who used to work for Martin at Kops. Henry's warehouse out in Scarborough is always worth a couple of hours.
Cosmos West used to have 1000's of 45's in the basement but they have now moved and I have not been but am told it is not too good for 45's anymore. There vare still a fair few shops on Queen, College and Yonge but it really is hit or miss.
