We saw Chameleonize last night at the Pavilion. As they were setting up Darrell (lead singer) talked to us about Psychotic 4 and how they're going to hang out with them on Friday. We said how we were at the Psychotic 4 show here in April. Then during their performance Darrell said something like "Give it up for the girls in Psychotic 4 t-shirts!" and put out his fist so we could hit them. - CLUB HAVOC

Let the MEDIA know that we will NEVER EVER ALLOW this to happen again!!!!! - Community Solidarity Network
he ferocity unleashed by Toronto police during the G20 was turned on its head Friday evening at the Horseshoe Tavern, as a hardcore punk extravaganza reminded us of the civilian indignities suffered at the hands of those in power.
The show was advertised as Fuck The G20 (on T-shirts, no less), featured Vancouver punk legends D.O.A. and was hosted by local acts The Class Assassins and Chameleonize. - CHART ATTACK
