Its Christmas time in the city!!

So, its Christmas. And this year it looks like we're finally goin to be blessed with a real Canadian winter. Its goin to be long and cold and white. Perfect for sleigh rides and snow men and sipping hot chocolate by a roaring fire, singing carols and filling your heart with love for your fellow man(and woman). Mmmmm.
We went to see Broken Social Scene play Kevin Drew's Spirit if... Saturday night at the Kool Haus. Its a cavernous venue with a terrible name, it used to be called The Warehouse, a more appropriate name. Anyway, they put on a great show. None of the girls were there, no Feist or Emily Haines or Amy Milan but it was a steller show nonetheless. The new solo Kevin Drew songs blended in nicely with the bss songs. And they still managed to create that warm bss atmosphere.
Wednesday we're going down to the 'Shoe to see Joel Plaskett play his Truthfully truthfully album in its entirety. We're going to see him again on Thursday, when he'll play his la di da album. He's doing six back to back shows for the Legendary Horseshoe Taverns 60th Anniversary.
Then next week we're back again at the 'Shoe to see the one and only Danko Jones show this city what rock and roll is all about. This show is gonna be off the hook. Especially with C'mon opening up.
What else? I got some new boots. They're warm. I'm reading Irvine Welsh's Bedroom secrets of the master chefs and its fantastic. I just finished season 5 of 24 and it was very exciting. I just watched Rescue Dawn and it was superb. Christian Bale keeps getting better and I don't quite understand how? I just picked up KMD's greatest hits and its so sick, so dope, so great, so exciting, the cd player almost refuses to play it. Oh, and I'm nervous and excited about Sundays big match. I'll be at the pub for 8am. Devour a Sunday morning fry up then onto the Guinness. Come on you reds.

Giddy up.
