Kick In The Ass
Amazingly, we are already parts of 6 weeks into 2008 and the ECMA's are starting tomorrow.I was getting a little skeptical about the event because the website wasn't quite as clear as I would have hoped but they got that shored up, my fairy Godsister got me an all-access pass, and the buzz blew into town like a fog. Things are looking up.
There are shows all over town all weekend and the real problem now is going to be trying to determine what I really want to check out. Tomorrow night there is a big show on campus and that works out well because I will be on campus handing in an essay (I'll explain later). Friday, the Trews are playing an acoustic set at Dolan's and then there are shows at the Delta and the Crowne Plaza that I would like to check out. Saturday there are free afternoon shows and then the Joel Plaskett and friends at the Back Nine. Sunday is the actual awards gala...what to wear, what to wear. Time to pull out the canadian tuxedo methinks; Double Denim baby! Busy weekend as you can see.
Also on Friday, the CBC will be broadcasting Q live from the Playhouse. Like a sucker, I have to work but I'm still going to try and see if I can't find a way past security. If my efforts fail, I have a backup plan. Here is the message I sent to Jian Ghomeshi:
Dear Jian,
I'm sure you have a full itinerary of important things to do and important people to meet but if you want to see the seedy underbelly of Freddy Beach, I'm your man. And screw Woodside, he's the Mayor of Corporate Whores - I'm the Mayor of Good Times.
Yours,
Dr. Rock
We'll see how that goes over.
Pace out.
