Crazy compliments
While walking Rachelle to work this morning, we passed a lady (other side of Chebucto Rd, walking the opposite direction) who was loudly arguing in the general direction of the traffic, or more accurately, with nobody in particular. I believe this is the same person I heard complaining out loud while opening at work yesterday (for a brief moment I ( Read more... ) -
The most beautiful songs in the world
So I have a blogger account now, as a result of joining the Sunday Night Bike Dinner Explosion! (more on that later), and found myself listing favourite music by a few choice songs, rather than just genre. It got me thinking, and as I was walking home this afternoon, I found myself humming a favourite Morricone tune. So I thought I'd take a ( Read more... ) -
My Sweet Timelord
One of my fondest memories from childhood was watching PBS with my family. Every once in a while our Saturday evening fun consisted of having a picnic in the den - we'd bring a tablecloth upstairs and drape it on the floor for the plates and the fondue, or tacos, and watch the best of British television. This was far more exciting than the Sunday ( Read more... ) -
Something worth posting
At long, long last....
The Death By Nostalgia Website.
Thanks go to Spencer for putting it all together, and Rod and Lucas for extra technical support. I will be updating the site soon with some drawings (much like I promised for this LJ!) and waiting for the T-shirt orders to start rolling in ( Read more... ) -
Mike Skinner: "I'm not common. I'm a thinker and I'm well-read"
I was just reminiscing about The Streets concert in London. Rachelle has described in her journal how it was an overwhelming and somewhat disappointing experience. One of the wacky additions to the evening of concrete floors, watered-down orange juice and young drunk london kids text-messaging each other was a RAP BATTLE! During the Streets "10 ( Read more... ) -
The Rock Won't Stop, The Roll Won't Stop....
Well, another Death by Nostalgia show at the Khyber. An excellent turnout, thanks initially to fans of the opening band (a whole group of people you'd not normally find at the Khyber, some of them friends of my younger brother!) and later to the entire Just Friends crew showing up to catch B.A. and presumably our set. We even sold a couple of CDs ( Read more... ) -
Let's get it started
Just saw Rachelle off. The Stolen Minks are heading up to good old Sackville, New Brunswick to play George's roadhouse. It will be their first out-of-town show, and the first that I will not be able to attend! Even when DBN had a gig the same night, I managed to bike downtown and back to catch their set before I hit the stage ( Read more... )
