Hey there, time traveller!

It’s going to be a bit of an Ontario invasion at Winnipeg concert venues early in 2017.
Toronto-area rockers Billy Talent return to the MTS Centre on Feb. 23 along with Hamilton’s Monster Truck and the Dirty Nil, who hail from Dundas, a Hamilton suburb. Tickets range in price from $40.50 to $60.50 plus fees and go on sale Saturday at 10 a.m. at Ticketmaster.
Billy Talent is touring in support of Afraid of Heights, the group’s first album in four years, which came out in July and shot to No. 1 on the Canadian album charts.
The Tea Party, who come from Windsor, Ont., are marking the 20th annivesary of their Transmission album with a 28-date tour that stops at the Burton Cummings Theatre on March 17. Tickets go on sale Friday at 10 a.m. at Ticketmaster and sell for $25 or $39.50 plus fees.
Transmission, the Tea Party’s fourth album, reached double-platinum status in Canada and earned the band a Juno Award in 1998. The group plans to play the album in its entirety at the concert.
