Does anybody remember The Waltons? One of the best CanRock bands of the early to mid-1990's and the pride of Regina. Their lead singer, Jason Plumb, is back in Saskatchewan and a fixture in the local music scene. (via Abandoned Stuff)

Happy Six Month Birthday Pace!
You hear it from everybody but there's still no way to prepare for how quickly the time flies. Six months already. Wow. (Full disclosure – the picture on the right is from his THREE month birthday. I don't have a current version of this shot but will get one next weekend.) Latest milestone – […]
Friday Fun Link – Canadian Police No Longer Targeting File Sharing For Personal Use (Nov 16, 2007)
“The Canadian police announced that it will stop targeting people who download copyrighted material for personal use. Their priority will be to focus on organized crime and copyright theft that affects the health and safety of consumers instead of the cash flow of large corporations.“My French isn't good enough to know if a Le Devoir […]
Make Your Friends/While You're Still Young/Before You Can't See Through/Anyone
As a follow-up to yesterday's post about Pace's first black eye, here's a great song about a parent's ever-present fear about their child coming into harm. If I remember correctly, Gord Downie wrote it after watching a young woman barrel racing at the Calgary Stampede and wondered how he would feel about his own daughter […]
Friday Fun Link – The Daily Show Makes Entire Archives Available Online (Oct 20, 2007)
The Daily Show with Jon Stewart has put up over 13 000 segments going back to 1999. That's pretty cool…or at least it would be if I could get any of the videos in the archives to load. Maybe the site's just being hammered with traffic because it's so new. But it almost makes you […]
10 Great Music Videos
Sometimes it boggles my mind how much is available on YouTube. I've taken full advantage by posting all kinds of clips on this blog (er, but watch them before the copyreich people get them taken down.)Up until now, I've sort of limited myself to posting one clip per entry (I think the most I ever […]
Riverdance Pace
Yet another reason that our son will be seeking psychotherapy in about twenty years…On a completely unrelated note, I'm bringing back “Classmate of the Day” except, since I've now convocated, I'm calling it “Colleague of the Day” and it will probably be a less of a regular feature then the former iteration was. But anyhow, […]
Random Cool Live Music Clips (and a New Book Festival in Brandon)
Mark P. has collected a random assortment of YouTube clips for one of his recent blog posts which features some great live performances. I'd seen the one with the British cell phone salesman singing opera before and it's definitely worth checking out (although admittedly, the editing goes a long way to increasing the impact – […]
Libraries gave us power/Then work came and made us free…
This is a wicked version of an awesome song (even the drunk guys singing in the audience don't ruin it – actually, they sort of add to the anthemic feel.) And I never really caught the power of James Dean Bradfield's voice until hearing him do acoustic versions of some Manic songs. (Thanks intrawebs!)
