| The Elbow Room Caparosa Jam | 8/28/2003 10:00PM |
| This was a "so long" performance for Caparosa held by the Elbow Room. Many visitors, friends and artists came to watch as Caparosa bid them farewell for another 8 months using all of their crowd favourites. It was a difficult night for the boys, Ottawa was their newfound sanctuary and this final performance of 2003 made them realize that a summer of incredible obstacles overcome had abruptly come to an end. |

| Caparosa played again at the Cafe Nostalgica for an audience of excited attendees. This time, Caparosa brought friends along... Blackmore, a group of 3, played before Caparosa and got the audience all warmed up for what was to be Caparosa's 3rd appearance at this venue. The guys played a full set and left the cafe exhausted, yet exhilerated by the success that the night had been. Thanks Blackmore! |

| The Elbow Room Jam | 7/24/2003 11:50PM |
| Another magical performance at the Elbow Room. One woman exclaimed "if Radiohead used acoustic guitars, they would sound like you guys". Which is a great compliment as Radiohead is a major influence of Caparosa's. |

| Cafe Nostalgica Customer Appreciation Night | 7/17/2003 11:30PM |
| The Cafe Nostalgica was only too pleased to have Caparosa come back and play. It had been over a month since their first show at the bar, and the band was well over due for a repeat performance. The band decided to play 5 songs for the anxious crowd in order to leave something to the imagination, and to build a desire in the hearts of audience members which will leave a need for the band to play once again, at another date. With the sound of the many tiny hands clapping in unison, Caparosa left the building, the echo of crowd noise still audible to them long after they had started on their way home. |

| The Elbow Room Jam | 6/23/2003 10:00PM |
| The Elbow Room had called the band in the middle of the week to come back and do another show, this time to play more songs. There was no refusing an offer like that, and Caparosa was so thrilled and impressed by the Elbow Room's generosity, that they played their little hearts out much to everyone's approval. Caparosa was again asked to come back. |

| Elbow Room Jam | 6/16/2003 11:00PM |
| The Elbow Room is the perfect place to relax and have a drink while listening to artists perform their material. It is located in central Ottawa, Canada's capital. Caparosa was new to this establishment, and the folks who frequent it. But it did not take long for the audience to notice that there was a connection between their musical tastes, and the music of the band. |
