GOD SAVE THE NEW WAVE (Catch It While You Can)
BEFORE THE FLOOD: To fully understand the unique New Wave situation which has manifested itself in Toronto, it helps to have a working knowledge of the city itself—before the wave hit. Before you can perform in any of the local dives lucky enough to have been granted a liquor license from the Ontario government, you first have to sign with booking agents who control just about every place there is to perform in.
