After Tuesday performed a great set at the 1st annual Barrie Earth Hour Music Festival. They rocked the downtown Barrie crowd of some 3500 strong along with fellow performers David Usher, Tal Bachman, Derek James Tilley, Stacey Jamieson and Final Thought. Barrie Mayor Dave Aspden and Barrie MPP and Minister of Culture Aileen Carroll were also on hand to welcome the crowd and say a few words about the significance of supporting Earth Hour.

Ontarians as a whole were enthusiastic about Earth Hour showing a decrease in electricity demand of more than 6%. The numbers were even better locally showing a 10% decrease in Simcoe County and a whopping 15.1% in Toronto!

As organizers of the event After Tuesday would like to thank all the sponsors, volunteers, staff and everyone in attendance for making this such a great event in only its first year! More importantly a big thank you to everyone who supports Earth Hour everyday by eliminating non-essential use of power and helping to combat climate change.

See you next year!
