I must really give props to Harborfront for booking so many great acts for free this year (5 stars out of 5 Toronto!!! w00t!).

Anyways this short doc shows you guys what it is like to be in the photo pit for one of the biggest and most intimate shows ever at Harbourfront, Broken Social Scene!

* And, at 21 seconds into the video, you can see me in my red polo shirt!!! :) *

Peace out for now.

Well folks, it’s that time of year again! The time when all of Canada’s underground or not-so underground talent all come together and celebrate and rock out at an event simply called the Indies.

I am very excited this year as the nominees and set performers are just phenomenal.

The biggest prize of the night is of course the Favorite Album award by Chartattack.com with the nominees being Constantines (Kensington Heights), Fucked Up (The Chemistry of Common Life), Hey Rosetta! (Into Your Lungs), Theory of a Deadman (Scars and Souvenirs) and The Trews (No Time for Later). My bet goes to Containtines hands down.

The other category I am looking forward to is the Favorite Group/Duo award. It comes down to Arkells, Beast, Crystal Castles, Matt Mays & El Torpedo and U.S.S. This is probably one of the competitive battles as all of these brilliant artists are deserving of this prize. But in the end, I think it will come down to either Crystal Castles or Ubiquitous Synergery Seeker. I love both of these acts, and I cannot make up my mind!!!

Anyways, The Indies will be Saturday March 14.09.

Peace out for now!

It was a wild night even thought I probably didn’t cover like 95% of it.

A tip for me : get a wide angle lens!!!

P.S I also updated my Portfolio with some of my fav shots from Vfest.

Back to the books…but not before some rockin’ out right?

Basically, some university / college students got some really good bands playing for them this year.

UofT gets Tokyo Police Club and Cadence Weapon. September 5 @ Back Campus.

Ryerson gets Kardinal Offishall and Thunderheist. September 5 @ Toronto Island

Humber gets k-os and Girl Talk (wow). September 10 @ North Campus Amphitheatre

York gets Stars (very jealous). September 16 @ Rexall Centre.

Queen’s gets Sam Roberts.

UOIT gets Bedouin Soundclash. Sept 4 @ EP Taylors campus pub.

Overall, 2008 looks like a fierce frosh concert competition! In my opinion having Bedouin sooth my ears will be a great “pre-Vfest” treat!

Well, they are finally here! (Not V-fest yet) But the anticipated band set times.

They can be found here: http://virginfestival.ca/toronto/#/lineup/.

Overall, the 2008 schedule looks pretty decent. However, on day 1, they decided to bill MGMT, the Fratellis and newly added Lights at almost the same slot on different stages around 5 O’clock-ish. Running around to three distant stages is not going to be too pleasant.

On day 2, everything is spread out quite well. Stereophonics, The Secret Broadcast and Moby (woo!) are nice and plannable to get to without any hassle. And of course, they give Oasis the lone 9 spot giving no one an excuse to not see them live.

The festival is going to rock! Be there!
