Kathleen Turner Overdrive - Marauders! Wolves! Scavengers! Party!

So last year (2008) in Canada really seemed like "The Year Of The Brake Up". It seemed like every month a new band was throwing in the towel. Band like KINCAIDE, Sydney, Shotgun Rules, Seconds To Go, Means, Johnny Truant (I know that they are from the UK, but Canada was their second home, so they count), and this band Kathleen Turner Overdrive. Now these guys sort of came up out of no where and made a there mark on the scene very quickly. Getting signed to Underground Operation, heading out on the road with bands like Farewell To Freeway, Means, Shortline Hero, Protest The Hero, getting on all the festivals and large events in Southern Ontario last summer. So I guess they came they saw, they partied across this amazing country of our and peaced out. So if you never did get to see them they put on a very dirty show with short shorts, booze driven sets and the occasional mic stand miss hap (just a quick recap; hope I didn't bore you, but really you didn't have to read it you could just download the shit).

So if you are in the the Norma Jean meets The Gorgeous you will dig this little EP entitled "Marauders! Wolves! Scavengers! Party!" and really sums up the EP. Enjoy.

VersaEmerge - Perceptions

So if you ever wondered what it would sound like if Paramore made some sweet lovin with Circa, you would come out with something like this. Versa have really made a "new" name for themselves over the past 12 months, getting a new vocalist, crafting their sound and releasing this EP. Also in the next week and a bit they are releasing their new EP (Feb. 3rd) which is sounding a lot more on the Paramore side of things which is saddening because the Paramore/Circa feel really got me into loving them (hearing it for the first time in our back "junk room" while shoot air soft out the window at random stuff) Take a listen and in the upcoming weeks I'll probably get my fingers on the new EP, but until then enjoy this one!

KINCAIDE - Unreleased EP 2008

It sucks that this EP never got released, it really would have thrown my boys out in front of a lot of the Canadian bands that are out there now. Getting to see them play this stuff night after night (on our 2007 tour) was so amazing, so I only feel that it is right to let others hear this and love it as much as everyone on the tour did.

Hair Cut For Christmas

So for the last year and 8 months my hair has not been cut, until today. The day finally came for me to say "SEE YA" to my long ringlets of hair, but they will not be wasted, how could anyone let hair like that go to waste! So where did it go you ask... well some people know that I said last new yeas that I was growing my hair to donate to a cancer charity that makes wigs for children that have lost their hair due to their cancer treatment. The charity that I have chosen to donate to is A Child's Voice Foundation located in Mississauga.

Now I know that I said I was going to be cutting my hair with Mr. Rob Dyer when he cut his hair, but I couldn't take it anymore, my locks were taking over. So Rob if you are reading when you do giv'er the old chop I'll still be there! And I don't know how girls can take it, all long hair all the time ahhh!! Well here are some before and after pics of my wonderful NEW and old look :ob

SHOCKING?!?!?!
