Venerated Toronto record label Arts & Crafts celebrated their 10th birthday in the only way they've ever known how: by bringing everyone together and seeing what happens. And by everyone, I mean everyone: not only did most of the entire label's active roster play the inaugural edition of the festival, but flagship band Broken Social Scene broke their "indefinite hiatus" for a one night airing of their seminal 2002 album You Forgot It In People.

Many of the label's up-and-comers also had their chance to shine early on in the day, with stellar sets by Still Life Still, Cold Specks, and Trust pairing perfectly with the delicious eats and gorgeous urban sprawl all around the Fort York-Garrison Commons site. The festival had two stages operating back-to-back to ensure set overlap and sound bleed were never issues, and it wasn't until the very end of the day's events that it seemed the venue was overly packed. With multiple art installations, creative food offerings, and a lineup featuring some of the finest bands on one of the nation's best independent labels, one can only hope this birthday party continues year after year.

Severely inclement weather has a way of making one question the very purpose of whatever activity has brought you out to bear through it in the first place. This is particularly relevant as it pertains to live music - if a few thousand people pay to suffer through a freezing cold rainstorm on a beach just to see a couple of bands, well, those bands better ensure they're giving their all and then some.

Entering the cozy confines of the Air Canada Centre on Saturday night, it was difficult not to be taken aback by the sheer scale of the Rolling Stones' stage setup. The band's iconic hot lips logo was serving as the basis for the backdrop of a custom stage, encapsulating a video screen and extending out into the arena to create a circular standing area, or "tongue pit". It was both visually striking, dominating overheard pre-show discussions, and distinctly utilitarian, as it allowed Mick Jagger to run out to into the crowd and strut his stuff as only one of the greatest frontmen in rock can do. Shaking, flailing and wailing - all in a day's work for Jagger, even in advanced age (he's 70 in July).

While much of the city was getting ready to celebrate (or was already in the throes of) St. Patrick's Day, Low were on hand at the Great Hall to provide a necessary alternative to wandering around Parkdale in the cold with temporary tattoos of shamrocks and leprechauns on one's face. The long-running Duluth, MN group exist almost entirely in their own genre, defying any musical trends in favour of gradual refinement nearly as slow as the average tempos of their songs.

Despite what Kevin Parker, frontman and songwriter for much-hyped quintet Tame Impala, might say, he and his Australian compatriots are no strangers to Toronto.

Maybe it was discreet sarcasm, but in a rare moment of crowd interaction at the Kool Haus on Saturday night, the laconic Parker quickly apologized for it having been so long since they'd last graced a Toronto stage - despite their last show here having taken place less than five months ago at the Phoenix.

After having occupied the downstairs Black Box Theatre for a raucous Doldrums-led dance party the night prior, Wavelength brought the party upstairs into the main room of the Great Hall for the third night of Wavelength 13. There was a logical structure to the selection of the five bands on the bill, but it was tough to argue against the sheer amount diversity between them as being the evening's defining aspect.
