Host a White Stripes Party!
Thursday, February 25th, 2010
The White Stripes have just announced two ways to catch their tour documentary Under Great White Northern Lights before their pricey box set comes out on March 16.
Several theatres in Toronto, Ottawa, Edmonton, Saskatoon and Sydney, N.S. will show the movie in special sneak peak screenings.
But the coolest way you can see the film is to host your own screening on White Stripes Day, March 16. For $30 you can buy a screening kit on their website which includes a copy of the DVD, popcorn and peppermint swirl candy. The White Stripes’ website says they will also give prizes to people who send in pictures with the most creative parties. $30 may seem steep but it is a lot cheaper than the $259.99 for the box set.

White Stripes sue U.S. Air Force
Tuesday, February 9th, 2010
The White Stripes are suing the U.S. Air Force.
The band issued a statement on their website claiming the Air Force used a re-recorded version of their song “Fell In Love With A Girl” for an ad that ran during the Super Bowl on Sunday.
Jack and Meg add that they’re looking to take “strong action” against the military arm to prevent the ad from running in the future.

Matt and Kim @ The Reverb
Friday, October 2nd, 2009
When it comes to writing about shows like last night’s Matt and Kim concert at The Reverb, it’s hard to know where to start… but I guess I’ll just kick off at the beginning. From the moment the cute couple from Brooklyn hit the stage (to some heavy Brooklyn beats), you just knew it was going to be a fantastic amazingly fun show. And it was.
For those of you who haven’t heard of Matt and Kim, you might have heard their music without realizing. Their song “Good Ol’ Fashion Nightmare” is that super catchy one in those Community TV promos. They’re kinda like The White Stripes in that it’s just one girl who plays drums (named Kim), and one fellow who plays keyboard (named Matt). What makes them different is that they’re all about having a good time. In their music video for “Yea Yeah” they have food thrown at them. In “Daylight” they jam in those big giant garbage bins. In “Lessons Learned” they get naked in Time Square. So yeah, they like to have a good time.
Now that you’re all caught up, let’s talk about last night’s show…

NXNE Friday Night!
Saturday, June 20th, 2009
Matt & Kim rocking out
A Friday night spent NXNE-ing? That’s one great Friday.
My first stop of the night was Whippersnapper for Spiral Beach and Matt & Kim. Unfortunately the road was closed so I had to walk to the venue, and I only caught the last two minutes of Spiral Beach. From what I saw they put on quite the energetic show, and the crowd was eating it up. I was busy trying to work my way to the front and managed to get a few decent pictures. Spiral Beach have a tharsh kinda sound that I’m not really into but I get why people like it. They’re also from Toronto and I’m all for hometown support! Best of luck to em!

News for Tuesday: Loose Ends Edition
Tuesday, June 16th, 2009* Twilight’s Ashley Green and Entourage star Adrian Grenier have been spotted getting cozy together. This is only interesting because it means greater potential for more famous vampires! Yesssss.
* Remember the time The White Stripes played a gig on a bus in Winnipeg? Apparently they’re making a movie about that super-random Canadian tour! Win!
* A whole new version of weird: Antony and the Johnsons cover Beyonce’s “Crazy In Love”
* Yusuf Islam, aka Cat Stevens, has invited Coldplay over for tea to forgive them for plagiarizing him (at least that’s what he says).
*POP Montreal has announced their initial line-up for the end-of-September festival. I’m sorry dudes, but it is not looking too exciting, and I’m the sorta person who’d take any half-decent opportunity to road-trip to Montreal.
