HELLA FUNNY

This is how we do it in Canada

How many years have the Juno Awards been a complete and utter joke of epic proportions with slim to no representation of the true Art that has recently come out of Canada? Doesn't matter, all was made right last night when Feist won 1,2,3,4 . . . 5 Juno Awards. Much deserved, and by far the best performance of the night also went to the lovely Miss Feist.
We won't mention the suspisciously absent nomination for Kev for Alternative album of the Year (not saying he should have won, but definately should have been nominated), that's another story.

If you wish for something hard enough . . .

Best news I've heard all year - from the A&C site:

"Olympic Island 2008
On June 7th, Stars and Young Galaxy will be joined by Death Cab For Cutie and Rogue Wave at this years Olympic Island festival in Toronto. Tickets go on sale Thursday, April 3rd at Ticketmaster and more details about the show will follow in the coming weeks!"

Start the happy dance!!!!!! So far no BSS, but a girl can dream.

And now a blast from the past . . .

There are not words for how funny this is!

What can I say about this really? I'll just post it and continue with my laughing fit!!! Enjoy!

The Number of the Beast

There are not words to describe how freaking phenomenal last night was. I saw Iron Maiden live last night after years of looking for someone to go with me. There are not words to describe the raw talent of Bruce Dickinson - his vocals were amazing and he did not disappoint for an instant. Doesn't matter wht genre of music you are into - it is a show that is not to be missed. I have spent the entire day saying "pardon" and asking people to repeat themselves because I cannot hear a fucking thing, but it was more than worth the next few days walking around asking people to speak into my good ear.

On your marks . . . get set . . .go!!!!!!!!

Just when I was getting bitterly jealous of Australia and New Zealand for having BSS around, the silver lining to my grey cloud arrived. Kev at Lee's and tequila . . . what more could a Toronto girl ask for? This was far and away the most fun I had with 599 people who were all younger than me last year!!!

Beautifully shot and totally worth the wait - love George Vale's work (he has done lots of A&C videos - worth checking out). Enjoy - and if you don't, I don't wanna hear about it.




On a somewhat related note, I was pleased to see this - looks like the break up has not affected Kev and Feist's ability to make phenomenal music together.

Sublimely ridiculous

This picture has been making me deliriously happy all day, also, I am willing to own up to at least 50 of the 2300 plays of the Lucky Ones video posted yesterday on myspace. I am fully aware I need medical attention, but . . .
