HAPPY CANADA DAY!!!!
July 1, 2013 at 8:30 am
Happy Canada Day, all you Canuckleheads! In celebration, let's refer to our heatwave highs in Celsius. It makes it more bearable anyhow. For us, we'll get up to 25, which really isn't bad.
My aunt and uncle up in Vancouver, BC (formerly Seattle) are at 18.
Me being an American, I have no celebratory plans, but to maybe find a link to CBC's The National, which I used to be able to watch in Pennsylvania on Newsworld International, which no longer exists.

I never even knew he was Canadian. A few bands I like are, like Austra, Broken Social Scene, and Metric.

We just saw Metric in concert last month! They were great! I totally jizzed myself over the 6 or 7 keyboards they had set up. My critiques would be the set was shortish and there were a lot of Twilighters in the audience, which I found kinda weird... I don't get the obsession with pop phenomena that outlives the phenomena itself.

Oh that's creepy.
I tend to wear out songs I diuscover and like. This month, on kexp.org, I heard "Help I'm Alive".

That's the one I've been wearing out this past month.
