toronto tonight
I will be attending another Toronto Tonight! fashion event this evening. I am going to help out Laurie Alers, of Mechanical Donkey, with modelling her clothing (like last time). On the Meetup.com site for the group, it mentions “six industry insiders” will be attending. Sounds intriguing… in any case, I’m curious to see the neat…

the dresden dolls concert
Saturday night was a Panic! At the Disco concert, with The Dresden Dolls as the opening act. I went and saw it with my friend Yevgeny, who runs the YListen radio show early Sunday mornings. He’s got a good review of the show up on his website, so I’ll just post these pics I managed…

the birds in dundas square
Tuesday evenings are movie night at Yonge & Dundas Square. Every week throughout the summer, a feature monster film is played for the public gathered in the square. I had not yet had the chance to attend a screening, but I finally gathered a few friends and checked it out this week. They showed a…

wonderland’s hollywood stunt spectacular
I’ve got an update on the stunt show my friend, Tristan Bell, is starring in. From an email his parents sent: “He is working at paramount Canada’s wonderland. He is in the Hollywood Stunt Spectacular, playing the part of a bad guy. He gets beaten up, dragged through doorways and last, but not least, gets…

red and white again, but this time it’s not x-mas
Happy Canada Day! 139 years… I think next year’s gonna be a big one. And in 11 years, we’ll have a huge one. Oh… 11 years… I’ll be 35… woah. I’m off celebrating Canada’s glorious woodlands, camping near Algonquin park for the weekend (yeah, I wrote this post ahead of time). In any case, you…

toronto manhunt!
Last night I made it out to my first ever game of Manhunt, a variation on the age-old game of hide and seek, with my friend Peter. Manhunt is played outside at night. The game starts off with one “hunter”, and the hunted steel away into the darkness to hide. This particular game, which happens…

stunt show!
My good friend Tristan Bell is going to be in Paramount Canada’s Wonderland‘s stunt show this summer! I don’t yet have all the details, but it only makes sense that this zany, attention-loving guy would eventually come to do a show of this caliber. I’ll post more when I know more…

noche flamenca
My flamenco teacher, Valerie Scannura, also runs her own dance company. Saturday night, I saw the company perform the concert Noche Flamenca at the Al Green Theatre here in Toronto. And what a rousing performance it was! From the very beginning, I wanted to get up and dance along with them (I don’t have the…

ladytron in toronto
The boy and I attempted to scalp tickets to see Ladytron. But at $60 bucks a pop, we decided we’d just walk around and see if anyone else had tickets available. It turned out they didn’t, but the experience of doing that was far greater than it would have been had we just gone in…
