At The Barricade is a Toronto-based music blog. Our focus is on highlighting the experiences that make being a music fan so fantastic.Die-hard fans are the most important part of the music industry (in our humble opinions). They shamelessly promote everything their fave artists are doing, line up for hours, sacrifice time, sleep & money to support the people they love. It's admirable, and too many people put it down as something embarrassing that should be kept under wraps.We're here to showcase the best stories from anyone who's ever felt this type of connection to music. Meeting a band, standing front row, making lifelong friends because you all love Harry Styles… all of your stories are welcome here, and we'd love if you'd share them with us.
