Its been quite some time since I've updated this blog, literally since the last performance of our favorite band.<br /><br />Right now you can get Hostage Life's B-Side cover of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tapper_Zukie" target="_blank">Tapper Zukie's</a> MPLA over at <a href="http://juiceboxdotcom.com/recordingco/jb024/" target="_blank">Juicebox</a> for free.<br /><br />Also this past Wednesday at NXNE 2010 Ho-life members Colin Lichti and Patrick Mathers with many others performed as newly formed super-group <a href="http://www.myspace.com/thevictimparty" target="_blank">The Victim Party</a> at the Bovine Sex Club.<br />Unfortunately I did not know about this gig and missed so if anyone's got pics from the show please send them my way to hostagelifeblog@gmaildotcomGChttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11256409823010261919noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1670249706633130086.post-91105033300474687542009-11-20T00:39:00.005-05:002009-11-20T13:52:09.351-05:00Tonight...YouOkay folks I don't have to tell you whats going on. Its the final show tonight, be there or else you will regret it forever, so do what you have to do to get to Sneaky's tonight; steal a car, quit your job, rob a TD bank, whatever. Colin will be jumping back onto the saddle tonight for his only show on this farewell tour.<br /><br />A few Notes:<br />1) <strike>People have been asking is the show all-ages. To be honest I'm not entirely sure. I've been assuming the whole time its +19 because all the times I've been there I had to show my ID, however everywhere I see the show listed it<span style="font-weight: bold;"> does not mention +19 or all ages</span>. So to all you kids out there go at your own discretion, learn to communicate(other than facebook) by using the phone to call ahead to the venue(its not hard, just google or facebook "Sneaky Dee's" for the number, I'm not your mother find it on your own) or be ready to bring your fake ID.</strike> <span style="font-weight:bold;">CONFIRMED The show tonight IS +19<br /></span><br />2) Also <span style="font-weight: bold;">get there early</span>, not just for the openers but its going to be packed, if not at the beginning of the show definitely by the end when Ho-Life gets on stage. Keep in mind, <span style="font-weight: bold;">LAST SHOW EVER</span>. Capacity at Sneaky Dee's is 250, the facebook event page have already have that many confirmed so at least half that is showing up.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=162607305739&ref=ts" target="_blank"><span style="font-weight: bold;">FINAL SHOW</span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Nov 20th</span></a><br />w/ <a href="http://www.myspace.com/thelittlemillionaires" target="_blank">Little Millionaires</a> and <a href="http://www.myspace.com/citysweethearts">City SweetHearts</a>.

Here's a quote:<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">"It wasn't a fun or easy decision for any of us, seeing as we'd all put so much effort and time into being Hostage Life. We had fresh momentum going on amongst the band because we just released a new record and were concocting a bunch of plans for the near future.</span><br /> <br /><span style="font-style: italic;"> "As a band you're always working toward something, even if you don't know what it is, and that's very consuming on time and creativity. Putting that stuff to rest when you still feel in the middle of it is a difficult decision."</span>GChttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11256409823010261919noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1670249706633130086.post-26358122573678305952009-11-10T01:35:00.008-05:002009-11-10T17:17:04.097-05:00St. Catharines, Guelph, LondonThree more shows added.

This may seem like it is coming out of left field, but one of us had some personal problems that needed to be taken care of and the rest of the band decided it would be better to break up than to continue a man short.

The band is done however this blog will not be, I will continue to keep this blog up in honour of the band and still occasionally update it with lyrics and some things like that. Last note, looks like the Brampton will be canceled so to everyone else I will see you at Sneaky Dee's on the 20th.</span></span><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /></span></span></span>GChttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11256409823010261919noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1670249706633130086.post-39675870145749691292009-10-30T02:39:00.006-04:002009-10-30T03:29:08.070-04:00Promo Flyers and Show Updates<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.punkmeup.com/booking/index.php?section=archive&ID=85" target="_blank"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 308px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMNtDL7nXfItPdX4EKbXV0pKX6Ir0y9TsoFO6VZjU9opvyHM7Mg0yPZ82vBSX9iRh8A4_gBA_yKGFr8uMYNT26ZnT8px0ZZ6Zu5JV6vqnoZwISYILRjfpDLMHioWePSDqXk64zYddPuXXG/s400/Absynthe_Show.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5398284633661582322" border="0" /></a><span style="font-weight: bold;">Nov 13th</span><br />L'Absynthe, Montreal - 1738 St-Denis<br />w/ <a href="http://www.myspace.com/digitup" target="_blank">Dig it Up</a>, <a href="http://www.myspace.com/onetimerpunk" target="_blank">One-Timer</a> and <a href="http://www.myspace.com/stillblind17" target="_blank">Still Blind</a><br />Tickets available here at <a href="http://www.punkmeup.com/booking/index.php?section=archive&ID=85" target="_blank">PunkMeUp.com</a> no service fee and will be waiting for you at the door.<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Nov 15th</span><br /><a href="http://www.cafedekcuf.com/shows.asp" target="_blank">Cafe Dekcuf</a>, Ottawa - 221 Rideau St.<br />w/ <a href="http://www.myspace.com/digitup" target="_blank">Dig it Up</a>, <a href="http://www.myspace.com/thepg13s" target="_blank">The PG-13s</a> and <a href="http://www.myspace.com/assemblemeband" target="_blank">Assembleme</a><br />Tix $10 at the door or $8 at <a href="http://www.myspace.com/endhits" target="_blank">End Hits</a> or <a href="http://www.vertigorecords.ca/index.html" target="_blank">Vertigo Records</a>, they haven`t listed it on the sites so call ahead first.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihb9NkIFdeMP_ceJr0TbKTzkTuk9X5hfHI5rMcyqSEecdr_ZBXirlcZajrZKQGqF95U-P0VybjFPZg0fQ5UKlcBs5DNl_z4OQKJBT1V94klkK4EkWinC7UlJbJmxuQ-5dmNwIracytIvv8/s1600-h/Cafe_Dekcuf_Show.jpg" target="_blank"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 311px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihb9NkIFdeMP_ceJr0TbKTzkTuk9X5hfHI5rMcyqSEecdr_ZBXirlcZajrZKQGqF95U-P0VybjFPZg0fQ5UKlcBs5DNl_z4OQKJBT1V94klkK4EkWinC7UlJbJmxuQ-5dmNwIracytIvv8/s400/Cafe_Dekcuf_Show.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5398289899309354786" border="0" /></a>GChttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11256409823010261919noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1670249706633130086.post-81731112855438452332009-10-30T02:23:00.004-04:002009-10-30T02:39:49.287-04:00Fest Gig Cancelled<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFy_3ON7-Eel-z6X1mS9qH_BxiEvHlb1mWsrXDzMXC1bBo8dAxBwYZka1NOrZ7fwkyNBN9pHwjn5Or0LLr93Qp8McmyfQnDtGW4nGiHzv-BFy1R9OGyMP0nzMVFvJSzg7l7y1JwltdHpIu/s1600-h/Border_Denied.jpg" target="_blank"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 298px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFy_3ON7-Eel-z6X1mS9qH_BxiEvHlb1mWsrXDzMXC1bBo8dAxBwYZka1NOrZ7fwkyNBN9pHwjn5Or0LLr93Qp8McmyfQnDtGW4nGiHzv-BFy1R9OGyMP0nzMVFvJSzg7l7y1JwltdHpIu/s400/Border_Denied.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5398277552350226418" border="0" /></a>Looks like those of you who were hoping to see Hostage Life in Florida at Fest 8, won't.
