Honestly people WTF

We live in a nation of skyrocketing diabetes diagnosis, rampant obesity, and chronic heart problems.
Do you think it has anything to do with eating sandwiches like this.....

Two breaded and deep fried pieces of genetically modified chicken(sort of)
A few slices of monterray Jack Cheese
and a few slabs of greasy bacon because everything tastes better with bacon!

Oh but dont worry for those on the Atkins diet...NO BUN!

So This is Christmas

...and another year passed. Only this year that passed as been nothing like the rest of them. Which leads me to experience Christmas for what it really is all about. It is not about presents, and not about rushing around, but about being with family and being grateful for each moment that you have with them.
Now if only war was really over...

I have not vanished

I know i have been horrible with updating as of late....i promise i have lots to say at somepoint. In the meantime, here is a collection of photos, new and old, for you to look at....

Personal Highlight from a tour I was on a few years back...

The Kaskade Touch

I am actually quite a fan of Katy Perry and both her full length releases thus far. My friend and I decided at the Jingle Ball in New York City recently, where she was one of the performers, that perhaps Katy is filling the void left behind with Gwen Steffani's hiatus. In any event, Katy Perry and Kaskade make a pretty satisfying remix....check check check it out..

This is Buble...and ITV production

Nostalgia will get me through this snowstorm with thunder and lightning

Have you ever had one of those days when you get an album stuck in your head just out of the blue. It makes you start thinking about all the things in life that occurred during the timeframe that that particular record was in high rotation on your home stereo or whatnot. Well it happened to me today during our load in at the arena in Buffalo New York. For some reason or another the Tragically Hip "Fully Completely" album became quite prominent in my mind and i started to think about the track listing of the album and what was going on during that time of my life. Pretty sure it was grade 10 for me, growing up in Ontario where The Hip were kings. Shit i remember camping out a few years later just to get tickets to their Day for Night tour. Its funny thinking about camping out to get tickets from ticket master now that i work in the concert industry. I guess it was all training and research for my future career. Anyways back to the FUlly Completly album. Honestly it may just be my favorite album of theirs as far as start to finish goes. Cuts like Pigeon Camera, Lionized, Looking for a place to Happen, and Wheat Kings are all pretty serious quintessential Canadian classics. Thanks to Gord and the gang for being ours and for releasing records like this one.
As far as my subject title of this blog is concerned, it is not a type O. Growing up Canadian i can honestly say this is the first time i ihave been in a snowstorm that comes complete with serious lightning strikes and cracks of thunder. Strange i say...only about 468 miles to go before we reach Grand Rapids and my first day off in the past 8....
till next time...
