Cancelled: Feb. 19th, Birdman Pop Up

Due to the expansion of the "Red Zone" in Ottawa regarding the protest on parliament hill,  tomorrow's pop up is not happening!  Dave's Drum Shop falls into the zone as you can see by the map below and police have cut off all access to the area by way of any 417 exits headed to this core.

Will let you know details regarding the next pop up over the coming weekend.  

New Arrivals : Friday February 17th, 2022

 

                          NO DULL MOMENTS!  ALL KILLER, NO FILLER! 💣💕👽
