Recalibrating my life. It has been pretty cluttered this past year, with new things crammed in mindlessly and lots of unnecessary stressors.
Rest assured, I am not walking away from writing or seeing live music. But there are lots of ways to engage with music and lots of venues for writing.
Still, I am looking forward to the Lou Reed events this weekend (Straight article here, with a couple of errors I haven't been able to get fixed; note that the Faraway, So Close! screening is actually BEFORE the movie, not after it. Figure it out on the VIFF Centre website.
Dead Bob, the magnificent supergroup started by John Wright of Nomeansno, plays the Rickshaw on the 23rd. More to come on that.
I am beyond excited that the Ex is coming to Vancouver.
And I went whole-hog on a Deep Purple ticket and am neck-deep in Purple.
More locally, I want to see Tower of Dudes on June 6, apparently doing farewell shows! Great Victoria band, kind of "Slavic Camper Van Beethoven" if that makes sense. Plus they are billed with the Campfire Shitkickers and China Syndrome. That's going to be a great local gig.
But I've written so much in the last year that I've developed chronic shoulder pain, so blogging won't be a priority for awhile. Take it easy, folks! I'll be back.
