You like Christmas music, right?
I'm sure that some of you know that in addition to Spine Radio, I also do a music podcast for Zunior.com. This month, I produced a mostly-holiday-themed episode that you might enjoy. Don't worry, it's not overly sappy sweet with holiday cheer...I don'...
Windom Earle at Stage Nine
I'm killing myself waiting for this show. Go check out Windom Earle tonight at Stage Nine or you'll regret it. I mean it. They rocked the house at the Sappy Records Music Festival, and they'll rock the house again, I'm sure of it. Originally posted on ...
FREE Shotgun and Jaybird Tickets
For anyone who doesn't typically read the Spine Radio blog, I'm posting this on the main page because in this week's show I'm giving away two free passes to the Shotgun and Jaybird show on December 9th. You're dumb if you don't try and go. My company holid...
Axl Rose sings "Liquor and Whores" with Bubbles
Somebody managed to get away with video-taping the Trailer Park Boys on stage with Guns'n'Roses. Axl actually sings a couple of verses of "Liquor and Whores" with Bubbles. Cool shit. Originally posted on Thursday, 2006-11-23 at 00:33:56.

Halifax Pop Explosion 2006
How I could I write about the Halifax Pop Explosion without playing music? I decided to put my thoughts in an MP3. Check it out. Links: Shotgun and Jaybird The Sourkeys Pony Up! The Diableros Duchess Says Originally posted on Monday, 2006-10-23 at...
Apple releases iTunes 7.0
Earlier tonight, Apple released iTunes 7.0, mainly a vehicle to allow the sale of movies through the iTunes store, and an update to the video iPods to allow them to play downloadable games. I'm happy because the updates fixed a few of the biggest problems tha...
Go see David Picco at Ginger's and/or Gus'
My step-brother, David Picco is going to be touring Atlantic Canada in the next few weeks. (He's from Newfoundland, but is currently living in Toronto.) He's playing on Saturday, August 26th at Ginger's Tavern on Barrington Street, and then again on Wednesda...
Free CDs (for the price of postage)
I mentioned this a couple of weeks ago in a Spine Radio episode, but Brobdingnagian Records is giving away albums for the measly cost of packing material and postage. I can't think of a much better deal. When they're gone, they're gone, so stock up! Origi...
This is why NOFX kicks everyone else's asses
There are two fairly major concerts happening on the Dartmouth waterfront this summer. The first being Wilco on July 12th, and the second being NOFX on August 14th. Some of you might know that I have a hard time paying the fucking crazy prices that so-call...
Joel Plaskett song in a Zellers commercial
I'm watching the second part of a two part House M.D., and what should come on but a Zellers commercial. They've had some catchy music in their ads before, such as the Bedouin Soundclash, and the Be Good Tanyas. Keeping in my current form of making statement...
The Zunior.com Podcast
I have paired up with Dave Ullrich of Zunior.com to do a music podcast featuring stuff that you can buy at Zunior.com. This is only the first one, so don't be too harsh :) Hopefully, it will only get better. Please check it out and tell me what you think. ...
Canadian musicians speak out against copyright laws & DRM
It's about time somebody stood up and said something, and I'm proud that it is Canadian artists doing it. DRM makes it harder to listen to music. If I can't listen to a CD in my car, I can't bring it on a road trip, I can't push it onto my friends, and if th...
Red carpet at the Junos
Through some good fortune, I was able to attend the red carpet ceremony at the Juno awards. I borrowed Ray's camera, which he was nice enough to lend me, and got some fairly decent shots of the musicians as they walked down the red carpet Argyle Street. If...
WTF is up with iTunes?
So, I picked up an iPod last week (which I'm still planning to blog about later, a little more in-depth) with my tax return money, and I decided to give iTunes a go as my primary music player. I know I always seem to have these fucked up problems, but this on...
Superfriendz @ the Grawood
For anyone who didn't attend the Superfriendz show at the Grawood this past Saturday night, you missed a good show. I took some pictures. I also picked up their original cassette release "Sticktoitiveness", which they re-released on CD, and their 2003 releas...
Danko Jones - Sleep is the Enemy
I picked up an actual CD for the first time in a long while this week. Every time I heard that Danko Jones has put out a new album, I just have to pick it up. The last one was non-stop rock fest of epic proportions, and their new one, Sleep is the Enemy is m...

Open the box on new music
A very interesting music subscription service has opened up recently. Pandora.com has indexed the musical "styles" of a crapload of music, some popular, some not-so-popular. The really cool thing about this particular service is that you can create multiple ...
