A quick live radio interview with Barbara Macphee about her Tribute to Prince in her Toronto bar

Are we ready for another 4 years?

Special guests "the overkillers" show up to hang out at the cat's cradle killers tribute night!

The Cranberries, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Guns N' Roses: A Night to Remember An Unforgettable Tribute Night On Saturday, November 15th, The Cat's Cradle hosted a stunning, immersive audio-visual presentation. With BIG sound, BIG screens, and, as usual, hourly door prizes, the atmosphere was electric. This event showcased a massive multimedia show, unlike anything you have seen before. The Cranberries: A Legacy of Sound Kicking off the night was The Cranberries , an infl

Nick Logan · CBC News · Posted: Oct 31, 2025 8:58 AM EDT | Last Updated: October 31 It's a treat to have the Toronto Blue Jays in a position to win the World Series. However, the trick for many families and baseball fans will be finding a way to watch it happen. For those who sacrifice watching Game 6 to take the kids trick-or-treating, beware of Mother Nature.

The irony of the night was that the Jays World Series loss, saved the Halloween party! The horrifying decor was set up, waiting in the balance. The eyes of the venue were glued to all screens in anticipation. If the jays win the World Series, will there still be Halloween karaoke and use of the photo booth? Or would it all be pummelled by a victory in a massive jumping, screaming jays crowd? Either way, its a win! One of the best, original costumes went to Richie, with his

Canadian Press TORONTO — When Toronto Blue Jays fans pile into The Cat’s Cradle Sports and Spirits to watch Game 6 of the World Series on Friday night, they may get a little more than they bargained for: namely, fake cockroaches, bloody handprints and severed body parts. Owner Barbara MacPhee goes all out for Halloween, turning the midtown sports bar into a scene straight out of “Tales from the Crypt” and hosting karaoke. But this year, she has to push all of that back to mak
