A British guy I know (in the Facebook sense of “We’ve never met but yeah, we know each other because of our common interest in Fred Eaglesmith) who works as a tour manager for various bands posted this recently. Beautiful… “Applewood Road” – Emily Barker, Amber Rubarth and Amy Speace

Music Monday – “Who muzzles the poor scientist?/Calls troubled people “terrorists”?/Who wants the courts to just say yes?/Suppresses freedom of the press?”
The “Harperman” protest song is interesting for a number of reasons: the person who wrote and sang it is a federal civil servant and is now suspended from his job for an investigation about whether he violated the Federal Government’s employee ethics agreement At issue is whether Turner violated the code of ethics that all public servants […]
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Paul McCartney Concert in #yqr (Aug 14, 2013)
Two years since the best concert of my life… And of course, in this day and age, somebody appears to have uploaded the entire concert, from start to finish, to YouTube! (If I’d know that, I could’ve saved 250 clams on my ticket!) 😉
Awesome Bike Jumps in Slow Motion
As mentioned in Sunday’s post about our recent camping highlights, here’s a video clip Pace basically compiled himself after I showed him the basics of using iMovie. This includes adding sound effects, visual effects, trimming some of the clips, duplicating others and more. If you happen to have a Google/YouTube account, feel free to “Like” […]
Friday Fun Link – Funny Shades of Grey
Shea and I may or may not have recently subjected ourselves to one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen. We probably should’ve just watched the (honest) trailer and/or some video reviews. Make sure you watch the “Elders React” one – it’s hilarious!
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – BA – English
Often when I’m out at the University of Regina, I’ll wander the halls of the ol’ alma mater to see what’s changed and what’s stayed the same. In a very “Dead Poet’s Society” moment, I came across my photo on the wall during a visit a few years back. Look at that young whippersnapper, all […]
Music Monday (on a Wednesday) – “Older” – They Might Be Giants
We got home Monday which would’ve made it perfect to post this as my weekly Music Monday video. But instead, I somehow thought it was Tuesday so I didn’t bother even bother. I’m posting it now with belated thanks to the person who posted it on my Facebook wall…
Music Monday – “And I know that I gotta be above it now”
“Be Above It” – Tame Impala
Music Monday – “Should I stay or should I go?”
Damon Albarn, lead singer of Blur & Gorillaz, was led off stage by security after refusing to stop performing after a five-hour set with the Africa Express Project at a music festival in Europe!
Music Monday – “Uri Gagarin/Flew into the sun/The angels in heaven/Look down where he lay”
I think I posted this in a long ago Music Monday but heard it recently and felt the need to post it again. Such great memories of my undergrad exchange to England during the height of the Britpop/Cool Britannia years with a song that pretty much defines the “Britpop” sounds for me… “Angel Interceptor” – […]
