Weekend Reminders!
The long weekend is nearly upon us (yay!) and if you’re in Vancouver, here’s a reminder of some of the great things happening:
Thursday April 9
SOUTH RAKKAS CREW at Library Square. Winnie Cooper’s selectors will be there. Details HERE.
Friday April 10
JEREMY JAY at The Media Club. Winnie held a ticket giveaway courtesy of Far Away and the responses we got were awesome. Thanks everyone who entered!
Saturday April 11
MEXICAN DRUG PATROL with THE RUB (band) at Funky Winker Beans for No More Strangers.
To avoid confusion, I made sure to note that ‘The Rub’ band will be this Saturday… not the NYC DJ party rockers.
BUT… Winnie says, “stay tuned“.

My fave indie rock darlings the Bombay Bicycle Club are about to go viral.
After releasing a few well received eps the youngsters have been signed to Island and have their debut album, “I Had The Blues But I Shook Them Loose” coming out in June.
