SHOW ANNOUNCEMENT:The verdict is in! Out of the over 40 bands that auditioned for The City of Ottawa's 22nd Annual Student Showcase Jam Crimson...MADE IT! Wall Sound sponsors this show, and the really put everything they've got into it. Making the Sportsplex one of the most happening "clubs" in Ottawa for one night. Along with other major studios sponsoring the event, Crimson has the oppurtunity to get a stab at the $15,000 worth of prizes!

-Whenever people see the website hasn't been updated for awhile, they ASSUME the band has taken an extended break..or something bad is happening. But that couldn't be more wrong! Usually if the site hasn't been updated for a few weeks it only means one thing, the band is doing what they do best playing some metal! But for all those who need to get caught up here we go.
-The band also has another show booked for December 20 at Bumpers.
-Some fans lucked into a free Crimson performance, including some new material! Crimson was at the Nepean Sportsplex late Thursday night auditiong for Student Showcase, we'll give you the follow-up soon! Keep checking back!

-The band has been very busy lately! Whenever the website hasn't been updated for a while I think you all know it is because so much is going on!
-The Ex Show was great, other than some minor technical difficulties but a big thank you goes out to Pizza Pizza and The Super-EX! Can't wait until next year!
-The band has currently written 2 new songs since the Ex show, and are in the process of planning a club show later next month.
-As you may hvae noticed Mike Tarp is now (again!) a full-time member of the band. C.J. had some personal committments and we regret to say that she no longer had the time that was needed for the band to put on the show all our fans expect from us. Of course there was only one person to turn to, and he's better than ever!
-Other than that, keep checking back and join the mailing list!

-I just got an e-mail from the band, and they'd just like to clear up a little mis-understanding. They were not properly informed about why Metal Skullfest was cancelled & in no way blame it on Kenoma. Actually, the band really likes their sound and hope to put on a f*cking kick-ass metal show with them shortly. Click here to check them out: KENOMA

Check out the "Past Shows" section for more info regarding the shows.
-For those that noticed a new face playing bass at the Merivale show, NO Crimson does not have a new bassist! Friend of the band Dylan Grier filled in for C.J. as she had some previous committments that she had to attend to at her h.s. The band would like to thank Dylan for his blazing performance!
