Bloor and Lippincott

Here’s another photo from yesterday that I found on Facebook. It’s during the second shoot of the day when I thought I was going to be late for work. Ben probably thought I was the biggest sissy.

Rush Apart

November 28th, 2008

Yesterday’s schedule involved shooting two videos, across town from one another, working a five hour shift at my other job, and dashing back across town to catch The RAA. John said I only missed two songs, but I think I only missed one because I heard one from the back of the bar.

Autumnal Tour 2008, Final Night

November 16th, 2008

Last night I went to the Horseshoe Tavern with my friend Dale to see Attack In Black, Ladyhawk, the Shotgun Jimmie Band, and Baby Eagle. It was a bit of a SappyFest reunion, since that was the last time I saw a lot of these folks. I snapped some photos of Attack In Black, and through the power of Photoshop, they have become these beautiful panoramas:

Except for that one guy who got messed up pretty bad, Photomerge works pretty damn well!

Oh yeah, Jimmie did these really great video blogs the entire tour, and he just posted the last one. See if you can spot Dale and I in the crowd when he’s doing the countdown before the encore.

Listening Party

November 12th, 2008

P1010171

I’m in Oshawa tonight to visit Mom and see my dying dog. Derrick came over with some records. In fact, he’s still here, he wanted me to write a blog about him and snap some pictures of his collection. He gave me some Reese’s Pieces, and something called Toffifee, it was good. He brought over his choice cuts:

  • Brand Nubian – One For All
  • The Cure – Disintegration
  • Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds – Henry’s Dream
  • The Pharcyde – Bizarre Ryde II The Pharcyde
  • Red House Painters – Red House Painters I
  • Red House Painters – Ocean Beach
  • The Replacements – Tim

He forgot his Cardigans’ records, but he was wearing a cardigan so that made up for it.

You can find him on Facebook as of tonight. I’m pretty stoked.

Port Hope

November 12th, 2008

I find myself watching this video every so often, I thought I’d post it here in case you haven’t seen it. It’s a short film for one of Jonas’ songs, shot by Taylor on his farm. It’s a beautiful song and video.

Well done boys.
