BOOM! HA!

I'm 22 minutes away from the weekend and that means; retail therapy, Ryan Gosling movie watching time, Hey Rosetta! & Hot Hot Heat show tomorrow, & The Social Network with my main man Justin Timberlake on Sunday. I'd also like to fit some drinks with some good friends for some good times, in there too! In the mean time, check out Hey Rosetta!

"Red Heart" is by far my most favorite Hey Rosetta song! So good, good for car rides with loud friends! Support Canadian music! It's the best!

Real Talk, Fake Problems

This past month I saw Florida's Fake Problems are they supported Jersey's The Gaslight Anthem on tour. They put on an awesome set and are amazing live. If you get the chance to check em' out, I urge you to do so! Very cool stuff!

They also covered Blink 182's Dammit at a recent Vancouver show with Gaslight's frontman Brian Fallon and although the singer is at times a little much too handle and quite obnoxious, I'm still 100% down with him. Still a mega babe and mega talented. Enjoy!

Kingston Rossdale: All Other Kids, Be Jealous

If you're not familiar with Kingston Rossdale...well be proud of yourself, you obviously have a life, however I sadly do not and therefore have a lot of time on my hands to familiarize myself with the children of celebrities. Yep, Kingston Rossdale is the barely five year old son of No Doubt frontwoman Gwen Stefani and Bush frontman Gavin Rossdale. If Michael Jackson were still alive, he'd be all over this kid...joking! I'm just joking of course, much love MJ. Seriously though, if I could babysit this kid for a living, I would. We could dress up in ridiculous and scream at the paparazzi all day together. Ohh to be five again.









Actually not just kids, but everyone should be jealous, I mean was your dad in Bush? No you say? That's what I thought.

Best Coast

A few months ago a friend told me to listen to a band from Cali called "Best Coast", at the time I had never heard of them, fast-forward to now and I literally hear their music EVERYWHERE! They're even featured in a super cool new Converse commericial alongside mega babe Kid Cudi. Anyways put on your thick-rimmed glasses and check out their "indie-pop" hit "When I'm With You".

Oh Mia, Mia Michaels

Very memorable performance from last Wednesday's episode of So You Think You Can Dance. Mia Michaels always creates the coolest pieces and is the reason I watch this show.

Tegan and Sara

Canada's favorite twins were in town last week to play two shows at The Burton Cummings Theatre and I was forunate to attend both shows! I had never seen Tegan and Sara live before and honestly thought that for some reason that they would not be that great. I thought their voices would come off as whiny or annoying. However I was totally wrong and completely taken back after the first song, by how amazing they sounded. I would have been stoked regardless because I love their music but it's so much better to know that they're actually better live.

I was also surprised by how hilarious they were. Inbetween every couple of songs they would reminisce and tell funny stories and experiences. I was impressed by not only their incredible sound but how many songs they played. They played a 27 song set which is alot of songs.

It was such a great show that I will most likely be talking about until the next time they play Winnipeg! Finger crossed they play Folk Fest this summer!

note: I did not take this video nor is it even from either of the Winnipeg shows. However the quality was better than most videos taken from the Canadain leg of the tour. also note that I think I am now a lesbian and have a major crush on both of them but more so Sara.
