Gotta plug 'em...these video links are just good ones I found on Youtube--not from the performances I actually saw.
At Harmony Arts in West Van, the Boom Booms played for the wine-tipping crowd and had everyone jumping right left & centre on command. Total good-time reggae/latin/rock good-vibes good-buddies band:

I think I have a musical crush on the stand-up bassist in this band...let me rephrase that: I have a musical crush on the stand-up bassist in this band... The Twisters...swing/blues/rockabilly...also at Harmony Arts this summer. They fell right out of a boxcar, I swear.
