Fan of Bright Lights and Sounds? Tron: Legacy Is For You!

December 17th, 2010

Starring: Garrett Hedlund, Olivia Wilde, Jeff Bridges Opens: December 17, 2010 After watching one of the battles in Tron: Legacy, complete with explosions, deaths, jumps, hits, and turns, I realize I really want to drive a motorcycle. Tron jumps right back into the computer world it left behind in the 80s. But with some improvements: [...]

Show Me How You Burlesque! No, Seriously, Show Me….

November 24th, 2010

Much like Madonna frenched the pop torch down to Britney Spears, so does Cher pass her legacy down to Christina Aguilera…just minus the tongue. But if Cher or Christina’s pipes don’t do it for you, there’s always Cam Gigandet’s bare behind (yes, he gets completely nekkid!)

Should you make time for Burlesque? Find out below!

Static In The Stars Play Indie Week Toronto

October 26th, 2010

Static In The Stars describe themselves as “Combining 80′s cock rock with modern influences like Anberlin and the Foo Fighters they have created a new brand of straight ahead rock and roll that sets no boundaries and takes no prisoners” – a hell of a statement. But if there’s anything I’ve learned from these Calgary [...]

Do Make Say Think Get Greedy in Toronto!

October 14th, 2010

Do Make Say Think can perform for two straight hours with a scary silent film in the background and still literally do, make, say, and think anything they want – they are that good!

Much got a chance to chat with the band as they played LIVE alongside members of Broken Social Scene and The Weakerthans to a packed Tiff Bell Lightbox theatre in Toronto. The attraction: the sinister 1924 Silent film “Greed”.

And let me tell you, this was no ordinary night at the movies!

SPLICE IS A MIND-SPLITTER!

June 3rd, 2010

Movie: Splice Director: Vincenzo Natali Starring: Adrien Brody, Sarah Polley, Delphine Chanéac After seeing Splice, I need to be straight up with you guys. This is not a movie that will land a spot as the next toy for McDonalds Happy Meals. This is a special kind of sci-fi horror. And no, it’s not the [...]

30 Seconds to Mars @ Sound Academy

April 20th, 2010

On Sunday night, I shared a moment with Jared Leto. A real moment. He looked me straight in the eyes, smiled in that deranged, hyper-ass way that only knee-bucklingly hot rockstars can, and scruffed up my sweaty blonde hair with his right hand before turning away to belt out the rest of “Kings and Queens”. [...]

Florence + The Machine @ Kool Haus

April 13th, 2010

I don’t mean to brag, but Florence Welch of Florence + The Machine fame is EXCEPTIONAL. And not to toot my own horn or anything, but I have been in the same room with her on two occasions. I HAVE BEEN GRACED BY HER MAJESTY. Ok, I’ll stop now. But for serious – FATM was [...]

Harry Potter Exhibit Comes to Toronto

April 9th, 2010

Who says ordinary muggles can’t see magic? It’s blasphemy, I’m telling you. I suppose I could enlighten everyone about the magnificent Harry Potter exhibition at the Ontario Science Centre. Well just keep it a secret from the Slytherins; I wouldn’t want them to know that their biggest fan fellow member is actually a fan of [...]

The Show Must Go… To Toronto?

April 8th, 2010

Unlike most teenagers, I woke up with a smile on my face Tuesday morning. Why, you may ask? Because the night before, I had witnessed what most of you know as a little Canadian band called Hedley. And by little, I mean huge. The boys played an almost sold-out show at the ACC last night, [...]

The xx @ Phoenix

April 5th, 2010

There aren’t too many bands that sound as polished live as they do on their records. Vocals can be off, strumming patterns are messed around with…it can just be a messy situation. The xx? They’re an exception to the rule. Being one of the most buzzed bands of 2009 and jumping into 2010 with a [...]
