Mercyful Fate - Larry's Hideaway, Toronto - November 4 1984
Daniel Richler of CityTV's The New Music sat down with King Diamond for an interview and some great live footage from the show at Larry's Hideaway. The band also did an in-store at the Record Peddler (original Queen St location) during that visit to town.
Many local thrashers attended Mercyful Fate's local debut gig and their stories / photos are featured in the book EVE OF DARKNESS: TORONTO METAL IN THE 80’s:

EVE OF DARKNESS delivers the real story behind heavy metal’s most critical decade in Canada’s biggest city from the people who lived it. Featuring the commercially well-known (Anvil, Lee Aaron, Killer Dwarfs), influential legends (Sacrifice, Razor, Slaughter), countless forgotten obscurities and unknown ragers, plus the venues, fanzines, labels… it’s all here in serious detail.
Packed with mountains of unearthed flyers and unseen photos, and extensive text drawn from over one hundred interviews, EVE OF DARKNESS is a true labour of love with over 300 beautifully printed, large format pages.
