Royal Canoe New Tracks

Tonight, I attended a show with my boy Cam to see and support Royal Canoe at the Park Theatre. After the Sungknows show back in early January, I got some great feedback from a large amount of the people in attendance that evening. They all enjoyed what they heard and the live performance from Royal Canoe. They have recently released a digital EP download of some new tracks they played that night, it can all be downloaded here.  enjoi

Theo!

I have been waiting for this day for quite some time, the day Theo Fleury showed up at Celebration week at the University of Manitoba to speak about this life story. A story about being on top in the NHL and being at rock bottom; to only battle back and mount a come back that nobody was expecting.
He has since retired from NHL and wrote about about his personal journey he called life. Theo spoke about everything and it was quite inspirational to see a man battle back from everything he has gone through. Below are a couple interviews to get a better understand of who Theo Fleury is, but you should already know : )
Above is my autograph I got! enjoi

SungKnows Presents: Saint Kris & Royal Canoe

Well the night has come and gone, January 8^th was a date that I will never forget. That evening I got to cross something off my bucket list; to host an amazing party! With the support from the Sungknows Crew I got to showcase some amazing Winnipeg talent! Royal Canoe and Saint Kris got to perform in front of a sold out crowd at LoPub.  Both these artists deserved everything they got that night; the audience was dancing, singing along and loving every minute both acts were on stage.

Royal Canoe started the night off with a great set of their own material from Co-op Mode and new stuff from most recent online EP release. They then followed the set with what they call “club hits” that really got the party bumping. Two of my favorite classics they played were “Pony by Genuine” and “No Diggity by Black Street”. These classics really got LoPub dancing and singing along like they were all back in 1998.

This was followed by the man of the hour Saint Kris, who was releasing his 2^nd mixtape “ExtraOrdinary” that evening. The crowd was chanting his name before and after his set, they couldn’t get enough of Saint Kris. This being his first officia Winnipeg performance really was a special day in his career. He let the whole crowd know the story of Saint Kris by the end of the night. Here is the encore acappella verse he spit once the “one more song!” yelling started. Enjoi

I just want to say thank you to everybody that showed up that night to support Sungknows, Royal Canoe, and Saint Kris. It was really amazing to see everybody at LoPub, the room was filled with some amazing people and that’s the only way I would have it. Royal Canoe and Saint Kris deserve the best, their music needs to be heard and the atmosphere that night was everything the band and I could have asked for! Thank you all for everything!

the 23rd!

The 23rd aka The Christmas Eve Eve Party! The 6th annual traditional partying going down in Steiner is something that I look forward to and a lot of others do too, every year. I really enjoy this gathering because is a reunion of sorts and i get to hang out and catch up with friends that i normally don't see to often these days.
The last couple of years i've been dragging Jen with me to this event, I know for a fact that the first occasion she was a little hesitant to join but now she is a huge fan of this annual event. So this year the group that joined us for the 23rd was the largest it has been yet! The S Club 7 was created and was ready to take on the Edge in Steiner ha ha.
The SC7 was ready to take on the evening with full force and was ready for a blasty blast. With some new found confidence installed in each individual, we danced the night away and some of us got lucky winning big on the slot machines! ha ha
Here are some pictures, complements from Jenni from the Block. enjoi
