Sean McGillivray has been the brains and brawn behind Halifax Locals since 2000. Though it doesn’t take much of his time---a little bit every day to make changes in the band list, adding events and posters---that’s probably for the best as he has other interests, including a gig as the technical director of The Halifax Pop Explosion and being a Night Painter, one of Jenn Grant’s band. He gets help managing the site from a “shadowy cabal,” associates who are involved “pulling the chains and pushing all the buttons,” and, as well, he credits “the people who use the site, contributing a lot.” Thanks Sean, since, you know, that’s all of us. halifaxlocals.com
