SuperSonic at the Commodore Ballroom in Vancouver
It may not have been actually Oasis at the Commodore Ballroom, but SuperSonic came pretty damn close. The Toronto-based tribute band, billed as North America’s best Oasis experience, brought a loud and nostalgic night to Vancouver on June 28.
Star Collector opened the evening with a set of sharp, jangly rock that nodded to Britpop without ever copying it. Local and clearly thrilled to be there, they were a solid warm-up.
Then SuperSonic hit the stage, and it felt like 1996 all over again. The guys channeling Liam and Noel Gallagher nailed the postures, the squints, the stares, and even the attitude. It was more tribute than cosplay, and it worked. They’re a bit older than the real Gallaghers were in their heyday, but that made it feel like we were watching a dream reunion.
The set was packed with the essentials: “Live Forever,” “Wonderwall”, “Don’t Look Back in Anger,” and “Champagne Supernova,” but they didn’t stop there. Tracks like “She’s Electric,” and “The Masterplan,” hit a sweet spot that got the crowd fully locked in.
By the end, the singalongs were loud and the smiles wide. If you can’t afford or get tickets to the Oasis reunion, this might be the closest thing ; and honestly, it’s not a bad deal at all.

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.
