I’m playing a couple of sets tonight (Friday, August 25) at the Free Times Cafe in Toronto, with The Canaries and Ainsley McNeaney. From Ainsley’s email:
THIS FRIDAY! Check us out @ the Free Times Cafe for a full evening of live music… The show starts at 8:30pm and will feature members of Toronto indie band […]
In my inbox today, an announcement about “My Secret City,” which is a part of Toronto’s Nuit Blanche “all night contemporary art thing.” It starts at sunset at 7:01 p.m. on September 30 and runs until sunrise at 7:15 a.m. on October 1, 2006.

Preamble:
If you blog about the CBC, it’s assumed that you are doing so out of love and perhaps frustration.
It’s only […]

Yes, it’s true. I’ve started moving into my new place. As of September 1, I’ll no longer be living with Phil and Tristan. I got myself a tiny little bachelor apartment at Victoria and Shuter. It’s close to Jenna, close to work, and close to the Queen subway station.
Even though […]
This summer, I worked on two pieces for the CBC Radio summer show Lost and Found, hosted by Matt Rainnie in Charlottetown. I just put the finishing touches on the second piece today, and the first piece airs this Saturday, on the “Stuff… Lost and Found” episode:
