LOCATION:Royal Theatre :: 805 Broughton St. Victoria, 
DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:Victoria-born Nick Blasko was the perfect choice to “curate” a show celebrating the rock and indie-rock scene in our city. As co-founder of Atomique Productions, Blasko has put on several dozen shows at the Royal and the McPherson, from Wilco to Social Distortion. He’s also the co-creator of Rifflandia and Rock the Shores. But Blasko has always had a huge interest in local bands over the years, and intends to function a bit like a historian for this unique gig. “We’ll be showcasing four or five Victoria artists and bands who are current, but I want their performances to include some covers of notable songs by earlier Victoria acts,” explains Blasko. “Plus the musicians themselves may bring up special guests to incorporate into the show.” Blasko’s idea is to create the performance equivalent of one those “tribute” CDs, only instead of honouring the songs of, say, Leonard Cohen, the show will be a tribute to the musical creativity of an entire city. “This should be a pretty fun and exciting evening,” Blasko adds.=0D=0A=
