Putting it Together Putting it Together Creative Conversations Explicit The Tear Down The Tear Down At the end of every gig, when the fans are filing out and last call is over, the band returns to the stage to tear down their instruments. They talk about what they liked and what they didn't like, the venue, the opening band, the sound guy. They deconstruct the stage, alongside their performance with the intention of putting it together better next time. The Tear Down seeks to capture that balance of positivity and critique, with the intention of creating an honest, healthy conversation about what goes on in Edmonton's music scene.
