Peach Pit & Briston Maroney at Deer Lake Park in Burnaby
You couldn’t have asked for a better night. The sky was blue, the grass was dry, and the vibes were dialed in as Briston Maroney and Peach Pit co-headlined the Long Hair, Long Life Tour at Deer Lake Park. If the show had any flaws, no one noticed. Everyone was too busy dancing, yelling lyrics, and taking mental screenshots of a night that just felt good.
BNNY set the tone with a short set, mixing softness with sharpness. It felt like the calm before the storm, and sure enough, Briston Maroney came charging onstage like someone had dropped a Mentos into his Coke. “Real Good Swimmer” cracked the night open with a rockier edge than fans might expect from his records. The crowd responded with instantly, dancing, clapping, and feeding off Maroney’s everything-all-at-once stage presence.
From there, he bounced between rock ragers and slow-burn heart-tuggers. A mid-set breather brought out Pacoustic version of “Land of Light” and “Caroline”. It was an unexpected but welcome mood shift that hit especially hard as golden hour started to lit up the park. Later, he closed his set with “Freakin’ Out on the Interstate,” which turned into a massive, arms-in-the-air chorus.
Peach Pit followed and never let the energy dip. The Vancouver hometown heroes got a hero’s welcome, especially when they kicked off with a cover of Black Sabbath’s “War Pigs” before sliding into the groove of “Magpie.” Neil Smith was his usual goofy, charming self, trading jokes with the audience, dancing like no one was watching, and somehow managing to make chaos feel effortless.
Their setlist hit all the fan-favourite checkpoints: “Give Up Baby Go,” “Alrighty Aphrodite,” “Shampoo Bottles.” And the crowd was all in, singing every word, jumping along, and forming little dance pits across the lawn. The newer tracks from Magpie landed strong too.
The encore was more than just an extra song. Smith came out solo to share how the band started and played the original version of “Peach Pit.” Then came “Tommy’s Party,” with both Smith and Wilton’s dads joining in. A great ending to the set.
Briston Maroney and Peach Pit are very different performers, but that’s what made the show work. One brings the whirlwind, the other brings the sway. Together, they turned a warm, beautiful night at Deer Lake Park into something unforgettable.

Goose Brings their ‘Summer Tour’ to the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver
Goose brought their 2026 Summer Tour to Vancouver on Tuesday night, turning the Commodore Ballroom into a sweaty, late-night dance party that stretched well past 11 p.m.
The Connecticut-based quartet — Rick Mitarotonda, Peter Anspach, Trevor Weekz and drummer Cotter Ellis — has built a reputation for letting songs breathe onstage, and Vancouver got the full treatment. The band played two sets and an encore, giving the crowd plenty of room to settle into the grooves and watch the songs take unexpected turns.
The first set opened with “Yeti” before moving through “All I Need,” “Turbulence & The Night Rays” and “Time to Flee.” “Everything Must Go” kept things moving before “Hungersite” closed the set with one of the night’s bigger stretches of improvisation.
After a break, Goose returned and launched into “Electric Avenue,” a crowd-pleasing choice that had the Commodore singing along.
There was little interest in rushing through the evening. Goose gave each section space, moving from tight grooves to loose instrumental passages without making the show feel like a collection of extended solos.
For a band coming off a European run and heading into some of its biggest U.S. shows, Vancouver felt like another strong stop on the way. The Commodore may be a much smaller room than Madison Square Garden or SPAC, but Goose seemed perfectly happy to stretch out inside it.

Chance The Rapper Brings ‘Coloring Book 10 Year Anniversary Tour’ to Montreal at MTelus
After 10 years since its release, Chance the Rapper is back on tour to celebrate his album Coloring Book! With Montreal being the 4th stop on the tour, many fans packed into Montreal’s MTELUS on August 15th, 2026, with no idea of what to expect.
First, the audience was thrilled by an energetic and upbeat performance by opener La Reezy. His quick lyrics and heavy instrumentals had no trouble in setting the tone for the night, specifically during “Gold Chains,” and with stellar crowd engagement during “We Live.”
Then, Chance the Rapper took the stage! With Coloring Book being such a staple in 2016, especially in the rap community, it is a daunting task to bring that nostalgic energy back on stage. But, with a 24-song setlist, Chance does just that. Unsurprisingly, half the setlist features songs from Coloring Book, with the set opening with “All We Got,” and closing with “Same Drugs,” featuring a confetti-filled performance of “No Problem” in the middle. However, Chance doesn’t shy away from performing a few hits from his other albums as well, such as “Link Me In The Future” from STAR LINE, and some older work in Acid Rap.
Overall, there is something powerful about hearing these songs a decade later. The themes stay the same, yet as both the artist and audience grow, there’s new meanings and emotions to be found in the lyrics. The anniversary show felt like a reunion for those who grew up with Coloring Book, and that’s what ultimately makes this tour a success.
