The main attraction was Strictly Sabbath a well know band referred to as ‘Sabbath Cover Band’ or “Canada’s Top Black Sabbath Tribute” within the Canadian music scene.  The breakdown of members listed on their Facebook page is: Steve Grzybala as Ozzy, Zig Paul Hole as Toni Lommi, their female bass guitarist Jenn “LadyEvil” Kilburn as Geezer Butler, and Dave Babyn as Bill Ward! Many people raved about Strictly Sabbath before, during, and after the show. One of Jenn’s (Bass guitar) supporter’s Rina C said: “I came to see the bass player, ‘cause you don’t see many female bass players in bands”, she was happy to come support the best female bass player around. The crowd waited in anticipation to hear Strictly Sabbath perform at the end of the night. Once they took the stage pretty much everyone made their way up to the front of the stage excited to hear Black Sabbath covers like: “After Forever”.
