Review: Russell Peters
Heading into the Civic Centre for Russell Peters live in Ottawa, scepticism was in the air.
Could Peters drum up that much new material for his 20th anniversary tour, "RPXX"?
He could.
The evening started off with a hilarious, self-deprecating opening act from Jean Paul, a Trinidad-born but Canada-bred comedian.
With jokes mostly poking fun at his relationship with his wife and her Caribbean accent, he kept the audience in stitches and had the crowd perfectly warmed up for Peters to take the stage.

Concert Review: Kings of Leon
4 out of 5 stars
“I thought I would be painting houses my whole life, just drinking and writing music. And then we put a band together and we fucking took over the world,” Kings of Leon’s Caleb Followill shouted to the crowd at Scotiabank Place on Sept. 17.
And while they may not have taken over the world, that night they certainly took over Ottawa.
