Here you will be introduced to our main review team. All the profiles are real although the names & pictures are not. We want to be able to provide you with an accurate & honest review. If we walk into a restaurant to do a review and we are recognized, it would compromise the results and defeat the purpose of this service. These reviewers will not participate or have knowledge of reviews where the reviewers themselves, family or friends are employed. The only person who knows the true identity is Michele unless the reviewer wants to be known. They don't even know who each other are.

attended was Platinum Blonde at the Dow

and he enjoys watching Leafs and Green Bay kicking butt and taking names. What
do you feed this Kodiac? Well, he like steak, potatoes, and lots and lots of

He’s a forty-something married male who has lived in the Sarnia area for about 25
years. He is an amateur musician who likes just about
any kind of music; blues, rock, jazz, classical,
country, and world. He is also a read-a-holic; fiction, non-fiction, tech.,
fantasy, and classic. He says
"I’m quite picky when it comes to what I hear and see when it comes to
movies, bands, and plays but I do appreciate a good honest
effort. I’ll try to be as fair as I can knowing that one man’s junk is
another man’s treasure, ( ever have a movie suggested to you by a number of
people, including the video store clerk? ).
Go out and enjoy some live entertainment and support the locals. Remember,
I’ll be watching!" Elmore will be focusing on the local bands in town and
you can find his reviews mainly in the concert or feature review sections...
although remember... we all have to eat sometime so you never know, lol. E-mail
Elmore at elmore@sarniarocks.com.
