Hmm, do other provinces have a distinctive musical sound in the same way that the Maritime provinces do? In a very stereotypical way, I’d say that the music of Quebec is probably linked by the fact that it’s…sung in French. For the prairies (well, Alberta at least) I think of traditional country & wesetern music […]

Friday Fun Link – GOOOAAAAALLL!!!
Not even sure what game/league this is from but anytime Canada can score a goal like this with a couple minutes left in a soccer game to tie England, life is good!
Music Monday – “So serene/The world turns blue/Heads are spinning/It feels so good”
One of my favourite British bands (I consider them Britpop but not sure everyone defines them that way) does a piss-take version of the typical Ibizia club anthem (love the refrain!)
Saturday Snap – Pace’s Thoughts On How You Should Treat Your Kids
Pace gives me some advice on how to treat your kids after I tell him I won’t buy him a toy. 😉 Perhaps in 20-30 years I’ll find out if he follows his own advice! Happy Father’s Day!

It was anarchists. It was gang members/hooligans/insurgents. (I […]

Wisdom Wednesday – Librarians Are Pushers & Hookers
I recently did a post about speakers I’ve seen at various conferences and elsewhere. In the post, I said it was the work version of another list I’d done about a more personal subject – a list of bands I’ve seen. But I think the reality is that the list was inspired by something else. […]
Music Monday – “You’ll bring your overhead projector/To demonstrate where we’d go wrong/You’ll chart our every flaw/Shone ten times tall on the bedroom wall”
I’ve already detailed my love for The Submarines many times on this blog and the band’s new album doesn’t disappoint…
