The Joel Plaskett Emergency has made it through 2 nights and only this night remains for the relentless rock down to go into the books . No opener tonight , after a entertaining Shotgun Jimmy set last night , so 2 sets . New fave opener Lightening Bolt may start things for the 3 rd straight night . Get there early ; plush red curtains pull at 9 :45 .

It's about 48 hours and the EMERGENCY load IN The Seahorse Tavern in Halifax for 3 nights of rocking the well hung stockings with care , just for the holidays . Up to 7 new Plaskett numbers may make a debut , but don't worry , you'll hear a lot of your favourites in the shortlist of 35 songs up for instant consideration . Also , we have great operners ; Carey Beck on Thursday and Shotgun Jimmie on Friday , so get there early , if you have a ticket , the shows are sold out . Happy Holidays !
