At the stroke of midnight...

...I will be publicly hanged.

The shame, oh the shame. I'm embarrassed to even admit this but tonight I was unable to identify a band as... The Tragically Hip. Hit me with all you got! I deserve it! I should have my citizenship revoked. I should not be allowed to call myself Canadian.


To make up for it I'm going to listen to nothing but The Tragically Hip for the next 24 hours.

Wow Japan you've really done a number on me. Yes, I'm blaming my stupidity on living in Japan. There's no other logical explanation.

I'm not worthy, I'm not worthy.

Throw ya handz in da ai-ya!

I may not be a huge hip-hop fan but I still like some of it. I recently came across a great track by Canadian hip-hopper, Shad (aka Shadrach Kabango) who I've never heard of up to this point. What I like about Shad is the simplicity. He doesn't over complicate his songs with ridiculous beats, they're just simple and catchy.

Check him out.

Home Town Rockstar


My friend Jonnie sent me the link to his bands video premiere the other day and I honestly felt like a proud mother. For as long as I've known Jonnie, making a career from music has been his soul purpose in life and he's finally well on his way with Age of Daze. I've been told that "Afflicted" is currently on light rotation on Much Music (Canada's music station) and of course the single has been heavily played on Fredericton's local rock radio 105.3 The Fox.

I just want to, once again, say congrats to my buddy. I <3 you!
