thank you for that one. I no longer live in Toronto and never got the chance to see a show there. You have given me a chance to see the Great Mocambo.

A very interesting walk, this time taking a look inside rather than only passing by. Good job Johnny!

This was a great video. That Church was beautiful. Interesting to see inside the Daniels building. Also enjoyed seeing El Mocambo.

Wow. The El Mocambo! I could almost 'feel' the spirits of some of the performers as you made your way through there Johnny.TY

Thanks for the ElMo tour Johnny! I played there a couple times in the late 80's. It's a VERY different entity now! And expensive to see a show.

My old neighbourhood. So many memories, although so much has changed. You need to make a stop at Grossman's Tavern, a block further down on Spadina at some point soon. The grey house across Spadina at 3:53 above was home to the late Bill Banting, son of Sir Frederick Banting in the '70s. Some friends of mine were his housemates.

Wow, grew up in Toronto 1960-2000 and I remember the El Mo as more of a hangout dive bar when I went to UofT. Looks like a museum now.

Went to the El Mo in 1988 just by chance. Some unknown local band was playing, then they started a conga line. The Barenaked Ladies. 2001. Was at Mandalay Bay in Vegas to see a concert. The Barenaked Ladies. And again back in June 1988, I was at the Horseshoe Tavern. Friday around 6pm. Some band was playing at the back I never heard of. $5 cover which I did not want to pay. it was The Tragically Hip. ah well...

Oh wow, sorry you had to deal with all those loud horn noises. Must have been pretty irritating. Hopefully you were still able to have a good time. 😊

I was out biking on Sunday and bumped into those honking car guys a couple of times. Once in danforth and another on Dupont. I don’t recognize the flag but I assume somebody’s team won a football (soccer) match. Does anyone know which?
