Ok, I’m ridiculously excited about this year’s Toronto International Film Festival. We’ve got our tickets, we’ve booked our apartment, now all we have to do is wait (augh!) – the full film list won’t be available until August 19th and we won’t be scheduling until August 27th. In the meantime, the Midnight Madness and Canada…

I just put our order in for our Toronto International Film Festival ticket packages! We got 5 10-ticket packages (maximum flexibility) and I made a $250 donation to TIFFG to make sure our orders are among the first processed. It is exciting times indeed.

A little late coming, but here’s the wrap-up post for Bluesfest. The last couple of days were fun – my biggest regret is missing Saturday – by all accounts a highlight of the festival this year. I had to work that night and couldn’t go. Next year I swear I’m not missing a single night…

Oh man, what a week… I’m so wrecked right now. Been going out every night after Bluesfest and drinking until the wee hours, then getting up and dragging myself to work in the morning(ish). So no time to write. Or really do anything. My poor dog is feeling neglected – we just celebrated an anniversary…

Tickets have gone on sale today for this year’s Toronto International Film Festival. I really really really wanted to get my passes secured today but my damn paycheque has been delayed (DAMMIT) and I need to wait until that’s cleared up before blowing any cash. So I wait with much anticipation…

Holy crap I’m tired. and sore. 4 days of walking/standing/dancing is starting to take its toll. Also the weather has been phenomenal, but the sun gets hard to take after a while. Gotta remember to drink more water and less beer. Less beer for sure – Bluesfest is not going to be good for my…

Kind of a light schedule for me today considering this is the first Saturday – I’ll head down early though and do some exploring – of course the big act of the day is Steely Dan which I’m really looking forward to. My schedule for now looks something like: 6:00PM – Ladytron – Rogers Stage…

Day 2 should be a pretty light day – Danielle and I decided to treat ourselves and got Gold Circle passes for Feist. We’ll be getting there early to do some exploring around the smaller stages. The only other act I really want to catch today is Ottawa-based Evil Farm Children who I’ve heard many…

Ok, so much for my list… I caught the end of Secret Machines – who I’m sure were very good, but I was too busy tracking down food and booze and people… ended up meeting up with Scott and friends who were great company – but we spent much time catching up and not so…
