==Apollopalooza / The Cover Show==
  
<h2>Apollopalooza I</h2>
+
The Cover Show is an annual or semiannual event organized by [[Jimmy Wiggins]].  The event features local bands, whether pre-existing or thrown together for the event playing 25-30 minute sets covering the band of their choice.  The degree of faithfulness varies from band to band, with some bands putting their own spin on the songs, and some emulating them down to the hairstyles.  Either way, the show is one of the most anticipated of the year, and the crowd is usually at or near capacity.
 +
 
 +
The event had its roots in the [[Grunge]] cover show organized by [[Rosemary Dohan]], where bands would play their favourites in that specific genre.  Genre-specific cover shows have occurred since for [[Punk]] and [[Metal]], but none have succeeded to quite the degree as this format.

Apollopalooza / The Cover Show

The Cover Show is an annual or semiannual event organized by Jimmy Wiggins. The event features local bands, whether pre-existing or thrown together for the event playing 25-30 minute sets covering the band of their choice. The degree of faithfulness varies from band to band, with some bands putting their own spin on the songs, and some emulating them down to the hairstyles. Either way, the show is one of the most anticipated of the year, and the crowd is usually at or near capacity.

The event had its roots in the Grunge cover show organized by Rosemary Dohan, where bands would play their favourites in that specific genre. Genre-specific cover shows have occurred since for Punk and Metal, but none have succeeded to quite the degree as this format.

Apollopalooza I

Apollopalooza I occurred on the night of January 10th 2004 at The Apollo

The lineup was something like this (but a band is missing)

April 15th

There was a very drunk fellow there.

April 16th

The Cure cover band was a ruse! They played two songs and suddenly transformed into Manowar.

Among the bands that dropped out in the lead-up to the show, there were cover bands for Foo Fighters, Nightwish, Alexisonfire, NOFX, and GG Allin.

Apollopalooza V / The Cover Show I

October 14th and 15th, 2005.

This show was originally booked as Apollopalooza, but happened during The Apollo's management transition. As such, the location bounced around, and eventually settled at Kilroy's, and was given a more venue-neutral name.
