Toronto Marlies vs Hamilton Bulldogs

Boxing Day Classic between the Marlies and the Bulldogs at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto. Big win by the Bulldogs in OT, 2-1 in a game that started out pretty slow but got more exciting as it went on.

Gerry Dee, November 2nd 2013


I saw Gerry Dee last June at Yuk Yuk's, but my girlfriend and I just had to go see him again, this time in Mississauga. One of the funniest comedy shows I've seen, more than half of the evening was spent with Gerry making fun of people in the crowd. Just a funny evening all around, and a must-see every time he's in town.

Graham Chittenden was great as the host.

Jethro Tull's Ian Anderson, October 18th 2013


Excellent theatrical show at Massey Hall by Jethro Tull's Ian Anderson. I wasn't sure what to expect coming in but it was an amazing show both musically and visually, with a narrative being done as Ian Anderson and his crew played Thick as a Brick 1 and 2.

Doug Stanhope, August 22nd 2013


Doug Stanhope

I wish more people were like Doug Stanhope. Watching him perform at the Opera House was amazing even if it is a weird venue for comedy since it was standing only. His views on life are just so raw and to the point. His views on charities especially were spot on. I'll definitely be seeing him again the next time he's in Canada.

Danzig (with Scar The Martyr), August 9th 2013

Opening act: Scar the Martyr

Sick stage props.

A very blurry Glenn Danzig
Amazing 25th anniversary of Danzig show at the Docks in Toronto (which is one of the worst venues in the city). Sub-par sound, terrible venue location, overpriced parking but fucking awesome show. I was really curious to see if Danzig could still rock and even at 58 he brought it and then some. Awesome.

Gerry Dee, June 1st 2013



Excellent comedy show at Yuk Yuk's in Toronto by Gerry Dee (star of the awesome show Mr. D on CBC) - pretty much the perfect funny evening you wish would happen every time you go to Yuk Yuk's: no dicks in the audience, great crowd that laughed and comedians that kill it.  Jean-Paul rocked it as the MC and and Patrick Haye was awesome as the opening act.

If someone says "I remember now that you say it"... That means they didn't fucking remember it in the first place.
