Don't know exactly why, but it kinda feels like the city's going through a bit of a hangover from last weekend.

Maybe it was the huge turnout for Under Pressure? A heady weekend over at Pride and an amazing parade? Those massive Metallica shows? Went ham on the Negroni vending machine at Bar Bello? Or maybe the news about Journal Métro shuttering just hit us too hard (more on that later).

Whatever it was, things feel a *little* more laid-back this weekend now that we're drifting in the wake of our biggest summer yet since the pandemic, and everyone's got their own way of getting some hair of the dog: A past-3am bar bonanza on the Main, not one but two new restaurants to eat at, plus loads of pop-ups and a country music festival.
