1. Vancouver Area Live Music & Art Events

Below you will find some of the best independent music and art listings mostly in and around Vancouver:

57 VARIETIES
Date:	August 19, 2005
Venue:	Butchershop 195 East 26th (west of Main Street) Vancouver, BC 604-876-9408
Time:	8 'til late
Details: On the third Friday of every month the Butchershop is the site of Vancouver's only unplugged open stage / variety show, limited only by your imagination! Now into its second year! Hosted by Rowan Lipkovits and Matthew Glick, their goal is to achieve in any given night such a diversity of genres and styles that the event lives up to the ketchup-y tally in its name. While it's true that participants do tend to contribute most heavily from the poetry-spoken word and acoustic guitar-slinging singer-songwriting departments, the event has also enjoyed wonderful performances that might not fit in other venues -- everything from choreographed dance routines to improv theatre to the impromptu performance of short guerrilla plays to clowning routines, puppet shows, and the conducting of a cellphone orchestra! No sign-up -- do what you want, when you feel. No amplification -- keeps the audience concentration intentful and respectful, and is what separates our open stage from an open mic (...no mic!) By donation / Pay-what-you-can. Contact Rowan at rowan[at]butchershop.ca, 604-877-1829
