After years of attending jams (like the Sunday night one at Southside Johnny’s in Etobicoke, where this pic was taken in 2011) Susie Grooves nowadays has a new Rock/R&B band together and tonight they are featured at Oscar’s Roadhouse in Brampton copy of the ad included in listings.

 

Has it really been two over decades that TO’s Orbit Room has been open? Yes it has, and tonight, as a matter of fact, the club celebrates its 21st birthday with one of the groups that since 1997 has been one of the mainstays of the College St. room’s success: the Dave Murphy Band.
