"I honestly mean this"

Firstly, I would suffer a million awkward and uncomfortable shows with the house lights on and excessive eye contact for just this one song:

Dub Narcotic Sound System - Fuck Shit up

Julie Doiron is a beacon of light in the dirty despicable world. Allen shines pretty brightly too. Her current tour features guys from Shotgun and Jaybird, The Constantines and Woolly Leaves. It was more than enough to make me nostalgic for the epic summer of 2002: Steven Stephen Stefen, table hockey, "Pega, it's your mom!" and so many other great things (Peace to ACx2, LB, MT, KS and Marcus!).

Ok, so that was during the week. The weekend went like this:

[1] Casiotone for the Painfully Alone - on a Fender Rhodes.
[2] The Donkeys - Seventh Heaven - The Habitat House was packed and booze flowed freely. Sometime later, at a party, I put on my copy of Great Speckled Bird and people asked to turn it off. The world is full of conflict.
[3] Greenbelt Collective - Our Homes - The second of round of homesickness.
[4] ok, Vancouver, ok - Drums and singing!
[5] Punk show in the sewer! Rodney Dangerfield jokes! Pyrate Punx! The beginning of epic summer 2007! (Thanks to JF, DY, KM, NS, EL and PW Barclay + Co.!)

from a casiontone/donkeys split 7". The pressing is really horrible though (as you may hear on this track). The other donkey's song 'be my girl' is even better but the quality is so bad that I couldn't post it.
