I think I’ll always remember the moment I discovered Ted Leo. Stuart Berman the music editor for Eye weekly at the time wrote a feature about the Heart of Oaks  release and tagged a show that Ted was playing in Toront at the Rivoli.  The article completely spoke to me and I had to see the show. The Rivoli publishes that it has a capacity of 200. It’s a sauna and insane at 200. I always saw the room as a great 150 cap.  Not an issue in this case. I was among a very lucky few, maybe 50 that witnessed Ted Leo and The Pharmacists make life long fans out of every patron.

In short I was pretty excited to see Ted Leo’s name come up on feeder. Go to Stereogum to download some covers. Ted plugs in and knocks off Joey from Concrete Blonde, By Your Side from Sade and With Every Heartbeat from Robyn.
